She became the cannon fodder female supporting character, framed by her cousin, jilted by her fiancé, and ultimately betrayed and killed by her entire family. She arrived just half a day before the house was raided. Su Qingluan: Half a day is enough. She hid all her family's assets and sent her ungrateful cousin to prison. Her ex-fiancé regretted his actions? Sorry, she married a regimental commander two ranks higher than him. Everyone in the compound knew that Commander Xiao was not to be trifled with. On Su Qingluan's first day after marriage, he handed over his bankbook. Her sisters-in-law were green with envy, while she happily counted her money. Later, enemy agents retaliated, and she was targeted. Xiao Jinyi led a night-long raid, protecting her behind him. "Don't be afraid, I'm here." Su Qingluan looked at his back, shielding her, and suddenly felt—transmigrating into a book wasn't so bad after all.

    Reader note

    I think this book is really good, although it's a bit short. The content is genuinely excellent, and it's very enjoyable and sophisticated. (The protagonist is a woman who transmigrates into a man's body, and the writing and plot are very friendly to women; the female characters are all very well-developed.)

    Reader note

    A recently released gem of a novel, I don't know how I found it. It's quite good, telling the story of three generations rebuilding their family business. It's been a long time since I've seen a serious historical drama novel. Sigh [strongly recommending it]. But now that there's a book circle, and considering it's only recommended after 80,000 words, I guess not many people will read it. I'll still give this author a shout-out [I strongly recommend it too].
