A Concubine's Escape in the 1950s

Shen Man transmigrated into a book. By the time she remembered her past life, she'd become the male lead's third concubine in a romantic novel.

More than twenty years had passed. The once-loving male and female leads had long since fallen out of love, and all that remained was a marriage of mutual respect.

Forced to become a third concubine, Shen Man gritted her teeth. Her memories of her past life told her that a lot would change in the future, and that there would be plenty of opportunities.

As long as she wanted it, and planned carefully, she could definitely escape.

Bai Feng's life hadn't exactly been smooth sailing, but he'd always gotten whatever he wanted. It was only ever a matter of time.

The former young lady Ji Congxue had been no different. In the end, the current third concubine, Shen Man, would be no different either.

But what he never expected was that Shen Man would run away.

What's more, she even persuaded the wife he'd been close to to ask for a divorce. And when she left, she handed her account books over to the new government.

Fine. Very well. He would make her pay.

Shen Man fled inland, to a place Bai Feng would never be able to find.

Here, she was no longer a third concubine. She was Teacher Shen, Comrade Shen.

She met many like-minded comrades, helped many people, and was helped by many in turn.

She saw so much of the world.

Years later, when Zhou Zhengran saw his junior schoolmate Shen Man again, she'd become one of the concubines of the Bai residence.

"Senior, can you help me?"

Zhou Zhengran fell silent for a moment. "I can."

The Original Male Lead Is My Child's Stepfather [The Sixties]

Blurb:

Xie Ling died, then came back to life.

She died at her desk. Her only wish before she passed was to lie flat in her next life.

Perhaps she'd been so sincere before she died that Heaven heard her wish. But because she died too quickly to finish saying it, the gods decided to make a few adjustments.

She transmigrated into a book and became a cannon fodder character, a widow with a child.

Her husband had died saving the male lead, asking him to take care of her with his dying breath.

So the male lead came to see her and asked what she planned to do next.

Her plan? She planned to marry him.

When Xie Ling arrived, the male lead had just refused to marry her, and she'd hanged herself and passed out.

When she opened her eyes again, the male lead greeted her angrily: "Fine, you win. I'll marry you."

Her meager sense of morality and conscience prompted Xie Ling to hesitate. "You don't have to marry me. Just find me a job with enough free time and money to support me and my child."

Shen Jue gave a cold laugh. "I'd like to know where someone who can't even recognize a single character is supposed to find a job like that." If she wanted to make things difficult for him, she could just say so. Why pretend to give him a choice?

Xie Ling: "..." She'd forgotten that she was now an illiterate village woman.

In that case, Xie Ling decided to shamelessly live off him.
