On one visit to her alma mater, she planned to donate a building, but instead set her sights on a college student. His shirt was washed pale, and he was slender and straight, with black hair, light-colored eyes, and a beautifully defined jaw. He was incredibly handsome. Swayed by his good looks, Ruan An'an bumped into him. He picked up the documents she'd dropped on the ground and smiled. "Watch where you're going, classmate." His voice was as clear as a spring, and he was as flawless as uncut jade. For the first time in her twenty-odd years, Ruan An'an fell in love with earth-shattering intensity. So she went along with it and invented a persona for herself: a determined, hardworking girl from a somewhat troubled family, like a delicate little flower. She and the poor but handsome college student quickly fell in love. They were a perfect match in every way and got married after just six months. Their life together was tight on money, but sweet all the same. The night before their wedding anniversary, Ruan An'an changed into a tailored skirt suit at the office, as usual, then went to a private club to meet the so-called major investor behind the scenes. "President Ruan," her secretary introduced him, "this is President Gu, Gu Jue." Ruan An'an stared at the man who shared her cramped 100-square-meter apartment every day, now dressed in a suit and looking haughty and distinguished. ...Her high heel nearly snapped in half. "An'an," he said, his smile melting the ice on his face. "Let's move to Linjiang Residence. I had a garden built for you." Ruan An'an: "…" To hell with the poor, handsome college student! The whole thing was a damn scheme :) [Looks-Obsessed Woman x Master Actor] One-line premise: I didn't want to insult you with money, but how the hell are you richer than me? *Also known as: "The Cramped Life of Two CEOs," "How to Make Ends Meet," "A Guide to Pretending to Be Poor," and "We Were Never Meant to Meet; It Was All My Acting." *[Note] Both are each other's first love; not an older-woman-younger-man romance. Some campus scenes in the early chapters. Overall, it's probably a silly, sweet marriage romance. Don't expect logic, and don't overanalyze it! [Captured on June 21, 2019] The following new fantasy romance starts serialization here! Book Transmigration: Why Hasn't the Big Shot Escaped Yet? Blurb: Yan Luqing was reading a particularly heart-wrenching novel of the year while on a plane. The most popular character was Gu Ci, a major villain who had once been imprisoned by the vicious female antagonist. Gu Ci had been dazzling in his youth, but after his family fell into ruin, his enemies took revenge on him. His beautiful, obsidian-like eyes were blinded with poison, and he was eventually imprisoned by an obsessive woman who had a crush on him. After enduring all that, the once-gentle, moon-bright young man turned completely evil. Who wouldn't feel for a tragic, beautiful, powerful man? Yan Luqing certainly did, and she cursed the woman who had imprisoned Gu Ci. Then a plane crash sent her straight into the body of that universally hated, vicious female antagonist. And it was the very first day of the imprisonment. Remembering the miserable fate the antagonist suffered in the original book, Yan Luqing thought: ...Well, crap. - The antagonist's fate in the original story was horrific, and Yan Luqing absolutely refused to make the same mistakes. From the very first day, she fed and cared for the big shot, treating him less like a prisoner and more like an honored guest. She arranged treatment for Gu Ci's eyes. Whatever he wanted to eat, she bought. If he wanted the stars, she'd pluck them from the sky. If he wanted flowers, she'd tear them off and make him a wreath. She stripped every flower in the house bare. Three months passed. According to the original plot, it was time for Gu Ci to escape. Yan Luqing breathed a huge sigh of relief. She didn't even make the big shot escape on his own. She flung the front door open with an eager, obsequious smile and said, "Congratulations, you're free." Gu Ci looked at her for a long moment, his handsome black eyes dark and deep. Then he suddenly smiled. "What if I told you I don't want to be free?" Yan Luqing: "???" Where's your business empire? Where's your ambition for revenge? Damn it, that's not how the script goes! [Silly, healing girl x scheming, reborn big shot] Theme:
