Oh, So You're an Old Friend's Son [Quick Transmigration]

Story blurb:

Yu Qiao always believed that when you loved someone, no matter what happened, not even the most handsome man could make you waver.

When a man appeared whose face resembled the one she loved, and was even more handsome, she admitted she had been wrong.

When she learned he was the son of someone she once knew, she realized just how utterly wrong she'd been.

1. The hero she saved eloped with her friend

Yu Qiao took one of his children, secretly hatching a devious plan of her own. Then the child wrapped a hand around her finger...

2. My rival, the imperial consort, left her son with me

Back when they were selecting consorts, her nemesis was chosen for the palace and showered with favor, while Yu Qiao had no choice but to accept that she hadn't made the cut. She would never forget the humiliation, but then she learned that her rival's dying wish was for Yu Qiao to raise her child...

3. The pearl diver from my village married the regent

They were both pearl divers. Someone else had saved the regent and found a happy marriage, while Yu Qiao was left stuck by the sea. Bitter, brooding, and jealous, she chose to spy on someone else's happy life, only to get caught in the act...

Definitely an older-woman-younger-man romance

Theme: The sea embraces a hundred rivers, and that is what makes it great.
