After I Let Go, My Ex-Wife Became Even Clingier: The 1980S

Yu Nuo was once quite content with her life running a breakfast stall to support her beloved wife. That was until her wife was reclaimed by a wealthy family, promptly divorced her, and turned around to marry a rich businessman, living the life of a pampered heiress. Yu Nuo: ? So she worked hard and, relying on her talent, quickly became a master chef. Yet on her way to take up the position of head chef for state banquets, she was suddenly involved in a car accident. - Reborn in the 1980s, Yu Nuo locked away her heart. A pampered wife would only slow down her wok skills. In this life, she only wanted to get rich! After saving her former wife from being sold into marriage, Yu Nuo directly cut ties and drove her away: You are the daughter of the Tang family of Shencheng who was lost outside. Go find your family and live the life of the true heiress! Tang Yuanyuan: ? Tang Yuanyuan blinked. Her eyes instantly reddened as she hugged Yu Nuo's leg and whimpered pitifully: "A-Nuo, there is nothing I cannot do. Please don't fire me, okay?" Yu Nuo: ...? No, I mean it. Tang Yuanyuan tightened her grip around Yu Nuo's leg. With a dark expression, Yu Nuo hauled her home. It was not until Yu Nuo's business expanded into Shencheng and was targeted by the local restaurant giant, the Tang family, that Tang Yuanyuan suddenly disappeared. A few days later, the newspapers published a photograph: The Tang family has found their biological daughter. The true heiress is about to enter a marriage alliance! Yu Nuo laughed angrily: Very good. This again, is it? Just wait and see! - On the night she acquired the Tang Group, Yu Nuo kicked open the conference-room door, ready to admire the traitor's miserable state. Yet in the dim room, the new head of the Tang family sat in the seat of power. She wore a red dress and lazily propped her chin on one hand. Seeing Yu Nuo standing there in a daze, she walked over step by step. Her slender fingers expertly hooked into Yu Nuo's collar. The Tang family's seal, representing the highest authority, was forcefully stuffed into Yu Nuo's stiff palm. Tang Yuanyuan leaned close to Yu Nuo's ear, smiling like a bewitching demon: "A-Nuo, there is nothing I cannot do. This is my betrothal gift. Will you support me for the rest of my life?" -- Tang Yuanyuan: Honey, I'm hungry. Yu Nuo: (shy) (blushing) Yu Nuo: But it is still daytime! Tang Yuanyuan's hand, reaching into the refrigerator, paused. She put back the wontons Yu Nuo had made for her. When she returned to the room, she saw Yu Nuo fully armed, just as expected. Tang Yuanyuan: Honey, you're hungry~ -- 1. A sharp-tongued, soft-hearted, loyal chef goddess x a flirtatious, sweet-talking true heiress 2.

She had obeyed the law for twenty-nine years and had been consistently poor. When a sum of money from an unknown source suddenly arrived in her account, she did not even dare transfer one hundred yuan to repay her Huabei balance. What if the money was dirty? Wouldn't that make her an accomplice to money laundering?! The cool, emotionless mechanical voice in her mind sounded again: [Congratulations. Your anxiety level has reached a new high. One million yuan is now being issued as a reward.] Qiao Lu: ? With trembling hands, she typed "Do I need to pay accidental-income tax on a windfall?" into the search box. The voice sounded for the third time: [Congratulations. Your anxiety level...] Qiao Lu: Stop. Can you say anything else? The voice replied: [Yes.] Qiao Lu despairingly closed her eyes and forced herself to return her attention to her boss's funeral. Gu Weisu looked as perfect in her memorial photograph as she always had. Qiao Lu recognized at a glance that it was an employee ID photo. Gu Weisu wore a proper suit, gold-rimmed glasses perched on her high nose, and a cold expression as if she were looking at a piece of trash someone had submitted. She radiated overwhelming pressure. Taking a deep breath, Qiao Lu remembered how young this face had looked when they joined the company together. Eight years had passed. Her childhood friend and fellow wage slave had become a legendary producer in the industry, completing the entire process from rising to being buried, while she was still only a mid-level planner! The voice had learned its lesson and was now concise: [Congratulations. One million yuan has been deposited.] Qiao Lu's stomach hurt. Could someone tell her what the hell this thing was? Was she still in the real world? If this was real, she would resign immediately! But would her wallet be completely drained by her poor relatives? She had already bled more than a hundred thousand yuan... The voice: [Congratulations.] Qiao Lu was close to tears. Amid solemn funeral music, she, a proletarian office worker, completed the first class advancement of her life in front of a crowd of industry moguls and capitalists. After offering a white rose, Qiao Lu could not help worrying about her future. Now that the producer was gone, would she be laid off? Before the voice could finish saying congratulations, it suddenly stuttered for a second. In its place came a familiar cold snort: [Dream on. You are not leaving until you finish the project.] Qiao Lu looked around and seriously suspected that she had been scolded into becoming a masochist. Behind her, Gu Weisu's mother suddenly shrieked to their relatives and friends: My daughter's five million yuan is gone! Qiao Lu stiffened all over. She furtively glanced at the notification on her phone, then slowly raised her head and met the utterly cold eyes in the memorial photograph. The voice: [Congratulations.] At that same moment, Gu's mother's phone vibrated. Qiao Lu: ??? The voice: [Congratulations. Congratulations. Congratulations.] - 1. An anxious genius office worker x a ruthless, taciturn demon queen 2. One-on-one romance, the System will have a physical form, light and satisfying, happy ending 3.
