Pre-release: My Short-Lived Ex-Wife
Blurb:
Ren Shen is a ginseng spirit. As soon as she took human form, she transmigrated into a book and became the foolish real heiress. She was married off in place of the fake heiress to the disabled male lead, serving as a foil to the heroine and meeting a tragic end.
But she had no interest in the plot. There was too little spiritual energy in this world, and she was about to die.
*
The first time Ren Shen met the man she'd been married off to, she threw herself at him. Lured by the spiritual energy in Gu Lin's body, she drooled and clung to him, refusing to let go.
Feeling their body heat mingling, Gu Lin smiled inscrutably. It was nice to know that someone in this world could look past his disability.
*
Later, Gu Lin learned the truth and confronted Ren Shen: "Did you choose me because of the spiritual energy in my body?"
Ren Shen: "Yep!"
Gu Lin: "..."
So it had all been for nothing.
P.S. The heroine has the mental age of a child, but is actually very old.
My Short-Lived Ex-Wife
Xiao Luoyu, a powerful quick transmigration veteran, retires and lands in a Mary Sue novel as the male lead's ill-fated first wife.
According to the plot, she has only a month to live. The only way to extend her life is to gain enough popularity points.
The System earnestly advises: [Join a family reality show and play the role of a good wife and mother. You'll definitely win the audience's affection.]
Xiao Luoyu smiles faintly: Joining a reality show is fine. Pretending to be a good wife and mother isn't.
"If I need popularity points, I've got a better way."
To the audience's surprise, this resentful woman who married into a wealthy family by relying on her child seems nothing like the rumors.

While observing a century-old embroidery tradition, her astonishing kesi weaving skills lead an inheritor of intangible cultural heritage to call her teacher.
While eating at a restaurant, she immediately recognizes that the child accompanying a man and woman was kidnapped. Her analysis of the details leaves even the police officers on the case impressed.
A certain tycoon murdered his own brother years ago. A certain wealthy family's daughter was switched at birth. A certain rich wife cheated with her own brother-in-law!
Netizens crown Xiao Luoyu the number one gossip expert among the rich.
Everyone in the Gu family changes their opinion of her, and her younger brothers and sisters all call their sister-in-law a goddess.
When Gu Yan returns, he finds that everything has changed. His once numb and timid wife has become a national darling, and everyone in the Gu family has made it clear that if he divorces her, they'll all go with Xiao Luoyu.
