Transmigrating Into the 1990s to Marry a Leading Man from a Period Novel

[The full text has been revised. Thank you for supporting the official edition.]

Meng Ruo wakes up one day and discovers she's transmigrated into a book.

As the book's troublesome supporting female character, she's destined to be insanely jealous of the heroine, cause trouble at every turn, and meet a tragic end.

The heroine, her stepsister Zheng Wan, only has to wait for her family to make arrangements. She'll get a good job, marry an honest, decent man, and enjoy a life everyone envies.

Meng Ruo has just graduated, and her stepmother has arranged a marriage for her. The woman can't wait for her to marry and move out so she can bring her own daughter to live with her.

Meng Ruo thinks this is wonderful. She's been trying to figure out how to leave this family anyway.

A hypocritical stepmother, a cheap father who favors sons over daughters, a spoiled younger brother, and the stepsister she'll supposedly be insanely jealous of.

Should she refuse to marry and stay here to fight with them like a pair of cornered chickens?

It's the 1990s, the economy is developing rapidly, and she has so many opportunities to make a good life for herself.

Meng Ruo looks at the man her family has set her up with, likes him at first sight, and immediately agrees on a wedding date.

What her stepmother doesn't tell her is that although the man is tall and handsome and has a good job, he's cold and has a terrible reputation. Meng Ruo will have a rough time after marrying him.

What Meng Ruo doesn't tell her stepmother is that her new husband will one day become an electrical-appliance tycoon, wealthy beyond measure. The good days are still ahead.

Zheng Wan is reborn. She knows she'll have a happy but ordinary life.

She also knows that in a few years, You Che will become a billionaire.

And she can just wait for You Che to get rejected when he goes on a blind date, then become his object of pursuit.

This time, she won't follow her family's arrangements. She'll marry You Che and live like a rich man's wife.

But she waits and waits, and You Che never comes to pursue her. Instead, she gets news of his child's one-month celebration banquet.

P.S. The male lead's pursuit of the supporting female character is a misunderstanding.

My next story will be another period novel with a similar theme: "The Delicate Beauty Wins by Taking It Easy in a Period Novel". Please be kind and add it to your favorites!

Blurb:

Jiang Xia transmigrates into a wealthy family in the 1990s. Before she can enjoy her good life for long, the real heiress arrives from the countryside and exposes her identity.

After reclaiming her place, the real heiress refuses to marry a poor country boy and insists on switching fiances with Jiang Xia.

As it happens, Jiang Xia doesn't want to marry the male lead either.

She quickly packs her things and heads to the countryside to get married.

The original Jiang Xia has skin as fair as snow and is delicate and frail. She's the male lead's first wife, destined to die young.

She supports the male lead's business in its early days, working herself to the bone without enjoying a single day of happiness, until she dies of exhaustion.

What's the point of working so hard, only to make a wedding dress for someone else?

As for the poor country boy, he'll one day hold a position just as high as the male lead's.

The difference is that the poor boy is a workaholic, cold and distant, and uninterested in women. After marriage, he'll probably be too busy with his career to come home.

Once he's successful, she can ask for a divorce and take a hefty settlement. Wouldn't it be wonderful to coast to the happy ending?

What Jiang Xia doesn't expect is that after they marry, the poor boy comes home more and more often, and his gaze grows increasingly tender.

"You don't know how to cook? Leave it to me."

"You don't want to do the laundry? Leave it to me."

"Here's the bankbook. Buy whatever you want."

So much for being cold and distant?

So much for being a workaholic who never comes home?

Qin Zhan has a dream. He sees himself falling in love with his friend's wife and remaining unmarried for the rest of his life.

When he opens his eyes, his friend's wife from the dream is lying beside him.

Theme: Hard work is the foundation of life.
