[Character setup: A country bumpkin heiress just returned from the countryside x a resentful, traditional husband from a wealthy family]
My Rebirth as a Husband: Fighting My Way to Victory in the Inner Household is a female-dominated romance with a male protagonist. In his previous life, the protagonist, Yin Zhijin, was tormented to death. Reborn, he returned for revenge, beating down his terrible relatives and taking on his despicable wife, then fighting his way through the inner household to become a great husband. It’s a satisfying revenge fantasy.
Jiang Chaoying has transmigrated into the role of the male protagonist’s despicable wife: a country bumpkin heiress brought back to the Jiang family from the countryside, dark and insecure, who humiliates the male protagonist at every turn.
The good news!
She arrives in the story on the very first day she’s brought back to the Jiang family. She pokes her head out of a dusty carriage, and the first thing she sees is a pair of fair hands, as immaculate as fine jade porcelain.
“Cousin, Aunt is busy today, so she asked me to come get you.”
His voice is clear and cool, and he looks gentle and harmless. But Jiang Chaoying knows that this is the male protagonist after his rebirth, already filled with hatred. And the number one rule for an expendable character is: stay far away from the male protagonist!
In the days that follow, Jiang Chaoying does everything she can to keep her distance from him. And the world of women in power is just so, so, so wonderful!
She spends her days having fun with the friends she’s made, earning herself the title of the capital’s number-one wastrel.
She also successfully turns down the marriage arranged between her and the male protagonist since childhood, putting an end to her fate as an expendable character.
Jiang Chaoying assumes the male protagonist hates the engagement just as much as she does.
She tries to sneak out by climbing over the wall, only to see Yin Zhijin standing in the shadow beneath the eaves, dressed in fine clothes.
Yin Zhijin is holding the marriage contract she tore up earlier that day, his eyes fixed on her, dark and inscrutable.
“Cousin, where are you going?”
He’s like a ghost.
“Your wife doesn’t want to marry me. Have you given your heart to some lowlife outside, or am I so ugly that I can’t hold your attention for even a moment?”
