[Coming next: The Female War God Reincarnates as a Wealthy Family's Eldest Sister-in-Law. Please add it to your wishlist!]
Qin Yue died from overwork and transmigrated into a novel about the entertainment industry as a cannon-fodder female character.
In the book, she despised her sickly husband, thinking he had nothing going for him except his looks. She loathed him, and after doing one bad thing after another, she finally suffered the consequences and jumped to her death.
Qin Yue: I don't get it.
What's the point of working yourself to death? With a considerate husband to do the laundry and cook, she could come home and lie flat in comfort, cuddle a handsome man, and feel his abs. Now that's the life!
The more she thought about it, the more excited she got. She planted a big kiss on her husband's pale, handsome face and declared, "Darling, as long as I have food to eat, you'll have a sink full of dishes to wash!"
The cool, distinguished man looked at her with unfathomable eyes. After a long pause, he smiled slowly.
"All right."
To "support the family," Qin Yue signed up for a lucrative reality show about everyday life.
The other guests were either top-tier stars or heirs to wealthy families, so she wouldn't have to work hard to promote herself.
Her bargain-bin husband said he wanted to join her.
Qin Yue's eyes lit up. "Sure! Come on, let me teach you a few ways to slack off. Then we can make our money in comfort..."
When the show began, this was what happened:
While the other guests competed to outshine one another, Qin Yue and her husband enjoyed a peaceful life together.
To her surprise, the one who set the trending topics ablaze was her supposedly "ordinary" husband?
A master chef called him teacher and insisted on visiting to learn from him;
A racing champion called him senior and begged to race against him;
A top researcher called him mentor and pleaded with him to return to the lab;
And business tycoons, esports legends, and many more all admired him immensely.
And a huge crowd of fans started shipping the couple:
Other people could barely get a word in with him, but this woman gets to eat food he cooked himself! Wear clothes he washed! And cuddle up to him at night! Waaah, I'm so jealous, but I ship them so hard!
Qin Yue was dumbfounded.
So... this cannon-fodder nobody had actually tried to support a domineering, invincible male lead???
She wasn't worthy. She'd better make a run for it... But the man pulled her back.
"I can explain."
She gave him a tight-lipped smile. "Fine. Go ahead."
Wait, if you're going to talk, why are you taking me to the bedroom?
For certain reasons, Jin Wenze had married in a flash.
He cast aside every halo around him, ignored his wife's scolding, and watched impassively as she struggled desperately in the entertainment industry.
Until the soul in this body was replaced.
From then on, the clouds parted, and the bright moon came into his arms.
[Both are each other's first love, and the female lead will leave the entertainment industry later.]

Blurb:
Huali was an undefeated war goddess, respected by the emperor and beloved by the people.
Years of campaigning and battle left her with chronic injuries, and she died at just twenty-two.
After death, she transmigrated into the modern world as the eldest sister-in-law of a wealthy family.
Her husband had disappeared overseas. According to the plot, his three younger brothers were all terrible people. Not only would they squander his fortune, they would also get her killed!
Huali: I can't do anything about my husband dying young, but I won't let those little brats grow up to be useless!
The second brother was a minor director in the entertainment industry. Everything he filmed flopped, and he was a hopeless romantic who kept getting taken in by actresses.
Huali: You'll learn filmmaking, but you'll also learn investment, etiquette, law, and accounting. I'll keep a strict rein on your dating expenses. If you don't listen, you won't get a single cent. Take your love life and go eat the northwest wind!
The third brother was high-school age and obsessed with video games. He was always skipping class to go to shady internet cafes, then coming home covered in bruises.
Huali: Your leave from school is arranged, the best computer money can buy is ready, and an elite training team is lined up. As long as it won't kill you, practice until you drop! If you don't get good at gaming, you won't even be allowed to go to school!
The fourth brother was the youngest, just starting his final year of kindergarten. He pulled girls' pigtails, played pranks, and threw tantrums on the floor whenever he didn't get his way.
Huali: You're tired of your scooter, are you? Into the trash it goes! You cry when I won't buy you something? Roll around on the floor all you want! You bully girls? You'll dance the entire Children's Day routine a hundred times, until you're so tired that even hearing music in your sleep makes you start dancing!
When Gu Beijun returned, he expected to find his family in ruins. Instead, the company was thriving, and each of his younger brothers had become more successful than the last.
The second brother had won Best Director, the third brother had become an esports world champion, and the fourth brother was a world-famous child prodigy.
But... why did they all look so guilty around him?
As he wondered, the contract wife whose face had long since faded from his memory returned.
A beautiful face, a designer handbag, a couture dress, and sky-high heels. Her makeup and hair were immaculate, and she looked radiant and full of life.
She took off her sunglasses with a carefree flourish, smiled, and said to the brothers, "This time, the pretty young guy you introduced me to was good-looking, but he isn't my type. Next time, introduce me to a wild, untamable wolfhound."
When she saw him, she paused, then asked with satisfaction, "This one is pretty good. What's his name?"
The brothers all lowered their heads, their eyes darting about as they tried to find an excuse to slip away.
A pretty young guy they introduced? And what did she mean, he's pretty good?
Gu Beijun, his sore spots hit one after another, sneered. "Excellent."
This family has gone completely out of control!
