Naturally wicked, sickly beauty × willful, rotten rich second-generation heir
I.
After waking up in the womb in another world, Ji Chanxie caught a cold, accidentally lost her System, and followed the script until she became the original story's wicked supporting female character.
Fifteen years later, her puppy System finally finds Ji Chanxie, who's been pushed into the water and is clinging to life.
"You and your husband are the wicked contrast couple in a natural-disaster novel. You take revenge on anyone who wrongs you, you're world-weary and suspicious, and you love money more than life. Your husband, Lu Huanshu, kills and burns without a second thought, spends money like water, and lives for pleasure... Host, complete your mission and return the spotlight to the protagonists!"
Ji Chanxie is completely at a loss. Husband? The bastard who pushed her into the water?
II.
Everyone knows that the young master of the Lu family, Lu Huanshu, is extraordinarily handsome, with cool eyes beneath his peach-blossom gaze and a natural air of superiority.
What a pity that he's a rotten scoundrel, steeped in all the worst habits of a spoiled heir.
Yet he has one weakness: the unattainable love of his life.
Ji Chanxie seizes on this weakness and marries him.
During a flood, she takes Lu Huanshu's money to help control the waters. "Husband, only after enduring hardship can you win the heart of your beloved."
Then she turns around and steals even more.
During a severe drought, she brings out the water she stored in her unlimited warehouse during the flood. "What if your beloved goes hungry? Use as much as you need, husband."
Then she takes advantage of the chaos to pick out the finest rice seeds.
During a deep freeze, Ji Chanxie, frail and ill, hauls deadwood, only for Lu Huanshu to hijack her donkey cart with a torch in hand.
Delirious with fever, she threatens him: "If you dare burn it, I'll kill the woman you love."
Lu Huanshu pushes her aside with two fingers. "Wrong. This isn't nearly enough to burn. Go get some more."
Ji Chanxie: "..."
This man's even more willful than I am.
III.
In the fourth year of their marriage, the disasters end, and they finally get the divorce they both wanted.
One day, Ji Chanxie goes to the Suzhou Flower Festival with her cousin.
Gongs and drums sound along the riverbank, flowers fill the sleeves of the crowd, and passersby step aside, crying out in surprise.
"He's this year's top scholar! He really is everything they say, so handsome and distinguished!"
The top scholar, looking as dashing as ever, slices through the peace of the painted pleasure boat with his sword.
"My lady, I've truly turned over a new leaf."
Lu Huanshu makes a show of lowering himself while holding his sword to her cousin's neck.
Ji Chanxie can only think that he's gone mad.
Lu Huanshu grins. "You were the one who threatened to kill the woman I loved first. I merely followed your example. What did I do wrong?"
Ji Chanxie: "...?"
Has he really turned over a new leaf...?
