Coming soon: "The Ultimate Stepmom in an 1980s Novel." The blurb is below. Please add it to your collection! Here's the blurb for this novel:
*Ji Shu's start wasn't too bad.
She was from the countryside, but she was a good student. She got into a technical college on a government scholarship, and after graduating, landed a job at a major state-owned enterprise in the city.
Her grandmother favored boys over girls, her father was a deadbeat, and her younger brother was no good, but her mother and younger sister were angels. Where did things start to go wrong?
When she was eighteen, she followed her grandmother's arrangements, gave her job at the state-owned enterprise to her cousin, and married a "phoenix man," Feng Guangyao, a fellow villager who worked at a steel mill.
Feng Guangyao did become incredibly rich, but he also revealed his true nature as a cheating, abusive scumbag. After being tormented to the breaking point, Ji Shu finally managed to divorce him, leaving with nothing.
But the golden years of the eighties and nineties had already passed her by. She had lost all her glory and dreams. All she could do was become a tenth-level surfing expert on the internet.
By chance, Ji Shu was reborn and returned to 1988, the year her fate took a turn.
The moment she opened her eyes, she was in the middle of a showdown: her grandmother was forcing her to give up her job, and Feng Guangyao's family was about to arrive to arrange the engagement.
Ji Shu: I'm restarting this round.
As a forum gossip guru, social media enthusiast, and longtime reader of financial news, Ji Shu thinks she can seize every major opportunity of the era. All that time online wasn't wasted! Who says surfing the web is useless? What if you get reborn one day?!
Trading government bonds, buying houses for next to nothing, investing like a stock-market god, doing business, foreign trade, e-commerce...
Ji Shu: Don't stop me. I'm going to walk the path of the big shots and leave them nowhere to go!
*Mo Kuangfeng, a computer genius who returned from overseas, went to relax in the countryside and happened to meet the young Ji Shu.
She was spoiled and unreasonable, looked down on the poor, and successfully broke off her engagement with her fiance right under his nose.
He told his friend, "No matter how beautiful a woman like that is, I could never like her."
But he ate his words before long.
When they met again, she was clever, quick-witted, humorous, and spirited, repeatedly doing things that went beyond the ordinary.
Mo Kuangfeng: Which one of you is the real you?
Ji Shu: After being reborn, you need to have a little acting skill. Otherwise, how are you going to deal with all those awful people?

The Ultimate Stepmom in an 1980s Novel
The rich, beautiful, and willful Su Xixi transmigrates into a period novel she once happened to read.
When she wakes up, she rubs her pounding chest. Good thing it's the 1980s, at least material life is getting better and better.
But she soon stops smiling.
She hasn't transmigrated into the heroine, or even a named supporting character. She's become a nameless stepmother with no main plot of her own.
Her role in the original story is to abuse the young future villain as much as possible, become his childhood trauma, and drive him to darkness.
Su Xixi trembles as she recalls the character's ending:
The villain locks her in a mental asylum, where she longs for both life and death.
It's too late for Su Xixi to run. The wedding procession is already on its way. She shivers:
So, if I start learning to be a proper awful stepmom now, is there still time?

Going Viral with Fortune-Telling Livestreams After Inheriting a Taoist Temple [Supernatural]
*
Poor college student Bai Shichu goes home for summer vacation. When she comes back, she has inherited a Taoist temple.
Her roommates are stunned: Is the frugal, extremely stingy Bai Shichu about to get rich? A whole Taoist temple!
Then they see a photo of it: dilapidated, overgrown with weeds, and in a remote mountain village with no subway or roads.
Everyone tries to put a positive spin on it: At least she got it for free. She can go there to escape the summer heat.
Bai Shichu: It wasn't free. I owe two million.
Everyone: ???
*
Bai Shichu has been exceptionally gifted since childhood, especially at fortune-telling. By the age of eleven, she had become a celestial master revered by everyone.
Unfortunately, at twenty-one, she failed her tribulation and transmigrated into a book, arriving in a world with scant spiritual energy where few people cultivate.
In this novel, she's a cannon-fodder supporting character described in only three lines: the college classmate of the heroine, the real daughter of the family, and someone the heroine supports after becoming successful, mainly to highlight her kindness.
The original body was raised by an old Taoist priest. Now that he has passed away, he has left Bai Shichu a Taoist temple... and two million in debt.
Bai Shichu: Time to make money! It's time to turn my skills into cash!
Fortune-telling for people one by one in person is too slow. To keep up with the times, she decides to livestream her readings.
*
A fortune-telling livestream suddenly appears on Pegasus Live, a platform crowded with all kinds of streamers.
Netizens sneer: Here comes another scammer peddling superstition. I'll expose her! So what if she's pretty? No scams allowed!
An hour later: Mom asks why I'm watching the livestream on my knees.
"The streamer predicted my husband was cheating on me, and I caught him in the act when I went home! She's so accurate!"
"The streamer said I wasn't my mother's biological child. I went home and asked, and it turned out to be true!"
"The streamer only looked at me once and knew how much money was in my account! An ordinary person would never guess that I don't have a single cent in there! Incredible!"
Bai Shichu goes viral overnight, and Lingqing Temple becomes a famous online attraction. People have to enter a lottery just to get a fortune-telling appointment.
Bai Shichu checks her bank balance. Great, she's getting closer and closer to her first big financial goal.
So what if spiritual energy is scarce? A true celestial master fears nothing. She'll ascend all the same, and make money along the way!
There is a male lead, who appears later. One man, one woman, happy ending.
Upcoming novel number three:
The Scent of Her Coffee
Ning Nuo opens a coffee shop hidden in the suburbs.
The little shop keeps a low profile, and its customers are all regulars. Business is dismal.
Everyone knows the owner is beautiful and icy, with a sharp tongue, but the coffee she makes is rich and enchanting.
One day, a man comes into the shop. "I want to open a coffee shop."
Ning Nuo: Go ahead. What does that have to do with me?
Man: I want to hire you as the manager.
Ning Nuo: I'll have to decline.
Man: A monthly salary of fifty thousand.
Ning Nuo: I don't need it.

Song Yizhi, CEO of a startup, has a persistent problem.
Whenever he can't get into the right headspace for work, he wants a coffee from the little shop on the corner.
One day, his assistant tells him that the shop probably won't be open much longer. Word is that the owner plans to return to her hometown.
He panics. Why not open a coffee shop himself and poach her? How hard could it be?
Ning Nuo has always thought her boss is a stupid rich kid, a vulgar nouveau riche.
He throws money around without worrying about losses and hires someone to run a coffee shop, but doesn't bother managing anything.
Later, she discovers that her boss is a coffee fanatic who can tell with one sip whether a coffee is good.
Eventually, she discovers that her boss is a rising star in the tech world, a brilliant scientist and heartthrob.
And last of all, she discovers that her boss, Song Yizhi, is looking at her differently and differently.
*
Everyone thinks the heartthrob Song Yizhi has no interest in romance and is devoted to his work. At twenty-nine, he has never had a single romantic scandal.
No one expects him to thank a woman in his speech at his company's listing ceremony.
"The person I most want to thank is my barista..."
The crowd gasps: Is "barista" some kind of kinky pet name? What's the joke?
The woman in the audience lowers the brim of her hat, but her stunning profile still trends online.
Then the two are photographed passionately kissing inside the dim coffee shop, the woman's slender waist held against Song's body by the usually restrained Mr. Song...
Onlookers: She really is a barista! Ahhhhh! Are we allowed to watch this for free?
After Ning Nuo's entire life is dug up, her fans can't keep calm:
#Damn, girl, kill me. She speaks five languages and used to be with Doctors Without Borders!#
#No wonder she won first prize in coffee latte art. Hands that can wield a scalpel must be steady!#
#Before meeting Ning Nuo, who could be good enough for our Song Yizhi? After meeting Ning Nuo, our Song Yizhi isn't good enough for her!#
Sharp-tongued, beautiful, mysterious barista * unconventional tsundere scientist who can't stop fawning over her
