Fu Yue transmigrates into a melodramatic novel as the scumbag Alpha, the female lead's wife who dies young and is her first love. Uh... that's a lot of tropes.
In the original story, Fu Yue is the first person Yun Jianxi ever loved, and Yun Jianxi loves her deeply.
But Fu Yue is a scumbag. Her true nature comes out after they get married, and she starts abusing Yun Jianxi verbally and physically. Yun Jianxi bears it without complaint. Then Fu Yue tries to forcibly mark her but fails, and in a fit of anger, beats the female lead until she breaks a bone. Even so, Yun Jianxi still refuses to give up on her.
Later, Fu Yue is beaten to death after her admirers remove her gland. Yun Jianxi even sheds tears over her. After Fu Yue dies, Yun Jianxi leaves her lovesick ways behind and becomes cold-hearted. She builds a magnificent business empire and meets her true love, winning success in both career and romance.
After closing the book, Fu Yue can't help thinking that everyone meets a few scumbags when they're young. At least the female lead ends up happy.
Who would have thought that she'd wake up as that very scumbag...
The Book God tells her that she and Yun Jianxi are star-crossed lovers, bound together for seven lifetimes. Now that Fu Yue's time is up, she has one last chance to return to their first life and change their fate.

Fu Yue, newly transmigrated, finds herself right at the crucial moment when she's about to forcibly mark Yun Jianxi.
"N-no... You can't force me."
Fu Yue looks at the terrified Yun Jianxi, then at the syringe in her hand. The words "Omega Heat Inducer" are printed on it in bold black letters.
Then Yun Jianxi's admirers arrive one after another. Seeing Fu Yue there, they all stay on guard. After all, if Yun Jianxi is renowned for her beauty, Fu Yue is notorious for being a scumbag.
With everyone watching her, Fu Yue doesn't hesitate to stick the needle into herself.
"I... I was just curious whether this stuff works on Alphas, haha..."

Fu Yue says Yun Jianxi is truly gentle, considerate, and caring toward her. She doesn't know why she was such a terrible person in her previous life. Anyway, under Yun Jianxi's tender care, she gradually develops feelings for her, too.
She thinks life couldn't be any more perfect.
Except that several times, she finds herself in inexplicably life-threatening situations. She figures one of Yun Jianxi's admirers must be behind them, and all she has to do is track that person down.
But one day, Fu Yue suddenly discovers that her gentle wife is hiding a knife under her pillow...

What do I do if my wife knows dark magic? Help, this is urgent!!!
"Oh, you've found out," Yun Jianxi teases, leaning over to whisper in her ear.
Fu Yue trembles.
"Jianxi, you know I love you very much."
Yun Jianxi nods, softly stroking her neck, her face innocent and her voice ominous.
"I know."
"But if you're lying to me..."
"Then you can die."
