Jiang Yuning transmigrates into a Hong Kong entertainment-industry period novel.
Her brother-in-law is the powerful male lead of the period novel. Her older sister is the male lead's deceased first wife, his one true love. And she... is the evil foil who covets her brother-in-law.
As a foil to the pure and kind heroine, the original owner was hell-bent on bringing about her own ruin. She tried to bully the heroine during the Miss Hong Kong pageant and had to pay compensation. She tried to frame the heroine and had to surrender resources. She drugged the male lead, only for the heroine to benefit... In the end, she could no longer make it in show business and hurriedly married, only to be beaten to death by her husband.
Jiang Yuning says: As long as my sister is alive, the heroine can get lost!

Jiang Yuning: “Looking at them more is good for your mind and body!”
Gu Xianyue grabs Xie Jiayan and glares at him, displeased. “Keep your wife in line!”
Xie Jiayan looks wronged. “Honey, you don't love me anymore. You didn't even share it with me first!”
Jiang Yuning's eyes dart around. “This isn't appropriate, is it?”
Xie Jiayan stretches out an arm and pins Jiang Yuning against the wall, then tugs at her collar with his teeth and asks, “Could it be that I've been neglecting my workouts lately, and my figure no longer satisfies you, my dear?”
Jiang Yuning's face turns bright red. “How could that be!”
“Then would you come back to our room with me?”
“Of course!”
Left to the side, Jiang Yuyan and Gu Xianyue shake their heads. One thing always has its match. The ancients were right!
