After Switching Betrothals with the Female Lead of a Period Novel

Blurb:

Xu Xiatiao transmigrates into a book. Seven people in her family are crammed into a narrow, overcrowded teachers' dormitory building: four sisters and one pampered little brother, where even getting an extra bite of meat is difficult.

Fortunately, she has the female lead as her best friend, and she can lie flat and still get carried to success.

For example:

The female lead meets the male lead on a blind date. Both are career-obsessed, so they marry by agreement, putting mutual benefit first.

The female supporting character also goes on a blind date, and happens to meet the male lead's good friend.

It's a clichéd pairing story, but apparently her fiance is tall and powerful, funny, and an officer, so Xu Xiatiao is content to wait for the wedding.

Her best friend gets married on the same day, in the same kind of Chinese wedding, and to someone in the same military compound.

That night, in the bridal chamber, the groom is just as she'd imagined: broad-shouldered, with a narrow waist and long legs, his military uniform making him look especially straight and gallant.

The only difference is that his face is so perfectly sculpted he hardly seems like a second male lead, and his personality is nothing like the easygoing man in the rumors. He's actually cold and aloof.

But with her ideal type right in front of her, how could a country girl worry about all that? She takes the man and presses him onto the crimson bed embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water.

They're married anyway. She might as well enjoy him!

And the groom really is a powerful man, easily arranging her into all kinds of positions...

Just as they're both having the time of their lives, a frantic shout suddenly comes from outside the door: There's been a mix-up! The wrong bride!

Afterward, Xu Xiatiao feels like the sky has fallen.

The good news: The groom and she are a perfect match.

The bad news: He's not her groom...

Reading guide:

No rivalry between women. Best friends come first, above everything else.

One older-man romance, pure love with some fun, and one older-woman-younger-man romance, fun with pure love.
