Becoming the Male Lead's Sister-in-Law in a Period Novel

The day after Ji Zhi realized she was the stand-in for someone’s beloved in a period novel, the real deal came back.

Ji Zhi lost both her parents when she was young. After they died, the Wen family took her in.

Knowing she owed the Wen family a debt of gratitude, Ji Zhi went to the countryside in Wen Mingshu’s place. She did whatever her adoptive parents wanted her to do, and since the male lead, Shen Rang, liked her smile, Ji Zhi always wore one.

It wasn’t until Wen Mingshu appeared before her one day that Ji Zhi understood: she was nothing but a substitute.

Her adoptive parents’ affection and the male lead’s devotion were all because she looked so much like Wen Mingshu.

Once she knew the truth, Ji Zhi’s heart turned ice-cold. To hell with being a substitute, and to hell with that scumbag male lead!

Shen Rang’s older brother, Shen Kuo, was an officer. He was seriously injured in battle, left disabled, and given little time to live.

In desperation, the Shen family secretly arranged a marriage with the Wen family, taking a risk by asking one of their daughters to marry into the family to bring good luck.

When the beloved came back, Ji Zhi became the one sent to bring Shen Kuo good fortune.

Ji Zhi: Fine. Being the male lead’s sister-in-law sounds like a pretty good experience. Besides, I have a golden finger!

Shen Kuo had been unconscious for days. He never expected that one day he would open his eyes to find himself with a sweet, delicate little wife.

His little wife was fair-skinned and beautiful, though everyone said Ji Zhi was a troublemaker and a bad person.

At first, Shen Kuo thought that since the college entrance exams would soon be reinstated, even if he and Ji Zhi had no feelings for each other, he could give her a sum of money if she wanted to study. If she wanted a divorce, he would also give her a generous settlement.

Later, watching the way Shen Rang looked at Ji Zhi, Shen Kuo walked over expressionlessly. "Call her sister-in-law!"
