Max-Level Rich Lady, Living It Up in the 1990S

Wang Xiao, a wealthy woman with everything maxed out, transmigrates into a novel. Her namesake, a supporting female character, spends her entire life as a stepmother. To be a good stepmother, she gives up her career and devotes herself completely to her family, even choosing not to have children of her own. Then the biological mother returns in triumph, her husband gazes at his old flame with shining eyes, and her stepdaughter says that this woman is her real mother after all. The supporting character becomes a laughingstock. She was a university student in 1990 with a bright future ahead of her. When she opens her eyes, Mother Wang is looking at her through tear-filled eyes. “Just marry him. Being a stepmother is no easy job.” Outside the room, a little girl is crying and throwing a tantrum. “You're not my mom! I don't want you to be my mom!” Wang Xiao glances at the window decorated with the character for double happiness and nods. “That's right, I'm not. I'm not marrying him. I have no business raising someone else's child.” Why give up when you're still young? Get back on your feet and start making money! She tears up the original plot and takes over. The year 1990 is a highway to success, with opportunities to get rich everywhere. Become a female wheeler-dealer, starting with selling soap, and take Chinese goods to the whole world. Open a supermarket, starting with self-service clothing, and build a retail empire across the country. Get into aviation, make a fortune by setting up an air freight company, and rule the international trading business. … Wang Xiao says, “No one understands the joy of making money better than I do. Give me a different era and I'll still be the most carefree rich woman around!” The original male lead: “One day, you'll regret this!” Wang Xiao: “Get lost. Who do you think you are? Don't get in the way of me making money.” A few notes: 1. The heroine has 800 schemes in mind, and all 801 of them are about making money. 2. All she cares about is money, and she can always spot an opportunity to make more. 3. There's no all-powerful male lead. When problems come up, the heroine handles them herself. 4. A sweet romance where she dotes on herself, her family dotes on her, and life is sweet, sweet, sweet! 5. This novel draws on extensive research and oral history. Corrections are welcome, but please don't leave abusive comments. 6. “Female wheeler-dealer” was a specific term for women who engaged in speculative trading in the late 1980s and early 1990s. They were on equal footing with their male counterparts. 7. A career-focused story centered on the heroine's professional growth.
