I Found a Happy Ending with the Scumbag’s Rumored Lover

[Main story complete] [Please add my upcoming novel, The Crybaby Transmigrates as the Fake Heiress, to your reading list!]

Everyone knew that the marriage alliance between the Chu and Geng families was a powerful union between two prominent families. The wedding dominated every local newspaper’s headlines, and the buzz lasted a full week before dying down.

But on their wedding day, the eldest Geng son used a trip abroad as an excuse and never came back, leaving his new bride alone. After returning, he spent his days drinking and carousing, paying no regard to his long-suffering wife.

In no time, Chu Nan Jian became the laughingstock of high society.

Determined to end the marriage and give the scumbag a taste of his own medicine, Chu Nan Jian took the initiative and went to the dance hall where Young Master Geng liked to spend his time, confronting the woman rumored to be involved with her husband.

The dazzling, alluring woman gently lifted Chu Nan Jian’s chin and breathed, “You too, have you come to cause me trouble?”

Oh no. What if she was starting to fall for her?

Jiang Bei Sheng wrapped the lovely Chu Nan Jian in her own dazzling charm, only to become deeply ensnared in Chu Nan Jian’s tender web herself.

When Young Master Geng was feeling pleased with himself, convinced he could carouse among the flowers without getting a single petal on him, he suddenly realized...

The position he had always been so proud of had been swept out from under him by Chu Nan Jian, utterly demolished.

His valuable estate had somehow ended up in Chu Nan Jian’s name.

And even the beauty he had been so sure he would win now affectionately held Chu Nan Jian’s arm, giving him a scornful glance.

Scumbag: ??? Is this woman a demon?!

Only Chu Nan Jian knew that Jiang Bei Sheng had shaken her awake and taught her to pursue freedom.

And wherever Jiang Bei Sheng was, that was where true freedom lay.

Upcoming novel: The Crybaby Transmigrates as the Fake Heiress

Blurb:

Chu Zhen, a legendary jinx, suddenly transmigrates into the body of a wealthy young lady adored by her parents. Delicate and soft, with tear ducts that work overtime, she has all the hallmarks of a pampered heiress.

She thinks her luck has finally turned and she’s become the luckiest person alive, but before long she discovers that she’s in a story about a real and fake heiress, and she is the villainous fake heiress who bullies and schemes against the real one.

Chu Zhen, whose bad luck has made her take everything in stride, thinks that cozying up to the real heiress sounds exhausting, and fighting her is even more trouble than it’s worth.

Since she’s spent so many years stealing An Ruan’s parents’ love, giving it back is only fair. She might as well lie flat and let things take their course.

On the first day An Ruan comes home, her timid, frightened demeanor captures all of their parents’ attention. Then, from a place where her parents can’t see, she gives Chu Zhen a look full of malice. Chu Zhen’s heart skips a beat, and tears come streaming down.

A month after An Ruan returns, Chu Zhen stares in bewilderment as An Ruan moves into her room.

An Ruan smiles. “Mom and Dad want us to bond.”

A year after An Ruan returns, she becomes the heir to the Chu family and ruins the reputations of the scumbag men and women who slandered her in her previous life.

Chu Zhen looks around her bedroom, now full of traces of An Ruan’s life, and stares at the ceiling. She figures she’ll be next on An Ruan’s list...

But instead, An Ruan tells her to pin her against the wall.

Chu Zhen: ...??? This isn’t how things are supposed to go!

But seeing the threatening tears in An Ruan’s eyes, she can only pin her against the wall with a sob.

P.S. The leads are not legally sisters.
