Blurb:

Jiang Xingyun transmigrates into a book as the villainess, with a mission to save Xie Xuanhe, the handsome yet tragic man whose life in the original story was full of misery.

At the same time, Jiang Xingyun gains a special ability: every day, she can travel between the timelines of Xie Xuanhe at age twenty-eight and age eighteen.

By day, twenty-eight-year-old Xie Xuanhe is a refined, aloof university professor who keeps his desires in check.

By night, eighteen-year-old Xie Xuanhe is a shy, sensitive high school boy whose cheeks flush easily.

Though the refined professor is revered by countless people, he secretly lowers his eyes in dejection in the middle of the night. Though the young man is bullied and in a wretched state, he still stands tall, proud and shining.

Jiang Xingyun takes Xie Xuanhe in for a few days at the darkest point in his life, then turns and leaves. Eventually, the truth about her transmigration is exposed.

The refined professor sheds his cool exterior. Looking desolate, he quietly begs her to show more tenderness to the boy he used to be.

In the first half of his life, Xie Xuanhe watched his loved ones die one by one. He slept beside trash cans, with a home he couldn't return to, and fell from the heights of glory into the abyss.

He thought his life would go on this way, until he met someone who dazzled him for a lifetime when he was eighteen.

She taught him how to study and how to be a person, changing the course of his life, but then she disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving him alone to suffer in the deepest, coldest abyss.

Then, when he was twenty-eight, she appeared again.

This time, he discovered her secret. He wouldn't let her leave again.

So he set aside his pride and laid himself bare before her, begging her to show more tenderness to the boy he used to be.

He had suffered so much back then.

Jiang Xingyun: “If I can dote on one, I can dote on two. So why not...?”

Taking My Fussy Mom on a Variety Show

Chi Yue is a spoiled princess.

After completing three romance missions and giving birth to three children, she ran away, with some flimsy excuses.

“There aren't any shrimp for lunch today.” “The flowers outside the window are the wrong color.” “My son spilled one grain of rice at dinner.”

On her next mission, she transmigrates as a spoiled real heiress with heart disease. In her previous life, the fake heiress indirectly caused her death. This time, Chi Yue joins her on the variety show A Trip with Family, but she never expected her three sons to be on the show too.

The fake heiress, Jiang Shanshan, wins viewers over with her gentle, considerate nature, while Chi Yue is cursed across the internet for her many antics.

But even so, on the show, she sticks to her spoiled-princess creed: if she can cause a fuss, she absolutely will not be sensible.

On a budget trip abroad, the real heiress diligently saves money. The production crew gives Chi Yue and Qing Ling enough for a week's expenses, but she blows it all in ten minutes. Viewers instantly fly into a rage, cursing her for making Qing Ling go hungry.

But then Qing Ling, the aloof, abstinent award-winning actor, grins carefree, heads out to perform on the street, and hands every penny he earns to Chi Yue to spend.

On a countryside trip, the real heiress works hard in the fields and fits right in. The production crew assigns Chi Yue a thatched hut, so she turns around and tries to quit the show. Viewers celebrate and urge her to hurry up and leave.

But then Gu Junze, the usually cold and imposing CEO, instantly turns red-eyed and gives Chi Yue his little villa, going to live in the thatched hut himself.

On an outdoor trip, Chi Yue insists on washing her feet in the river and accidentally sprains her ankle. The viewers gloat and tell her, “That's what you get for making a fuss!”

They think Shen Xingyi, who is always arguing with Chi Yue and mouthing off at everyone, will leave her behind without a second thought. Instead, the usually haughty young man drops to his knees and lifts Chi Yue into his arms, his voice hoarse and his hands trembling with worry.

On the show, the host asks the guests what their mothers are like.

Qing Ling: “She's a world-renowned musician with a gentle personality.”

Gu Junze: “She's a painter, an idealist.”

Shen Xingyi: “She's an excellent scientist, rational and cold.”

But none of them mention one thing: their mother is really fussy.

While the viewers are discussing the three men's mothers and their legendary lives, they suddenly notice that the three of them keep hovering around Chi Yue.

Viewers: “? Have they been bewitched?”

It isn't until Chi Yue gives a world-class violin performance on the show, paints a picture that earns lavish praise from the art association, and casually helps a farmer whose crops are failing figure out the problem that they realize Chi Yue... may not be quite what they thought.

She's spoiled! She's got the talent to back it up!

Later, when Chi Yue wants to leave the show early, the three of them block her path and call out, “Mom, don't go!”

Mom?!

Netizens: “Mother-in-law, I was so wrong about you!”
