This Real Heiress in the Contrast Group Is Done Playing Along [The 1980s]

Lu Yao closed her eyes in regret, only to discover that she had been reborn.

She had just learned that she was the real daughter who served as cannon fodder in this contemporary-era novel.

She was foolish and weak, married off to a scumbag by her adoptive parents. He abused her, cheated on her, and brainwashed her. Even after her biological parents took her back, she still chose to stay tangled up with the scumbag, unwilling to escape the mire.

She muddled through her life, only to end up despised and rejected by everyone, alone and miserable.

Meanwhile, the fake daughter, Lu Ci, married her childhood sweetheart, had two sons and two daughters, and lived a pampered, happy life.

Lu Yao existed only to make Lu Ci look good!

When Lu Yao opened her eyes again, she was back at the moment her adoptive parents were forcing her to drop out of school and go on a blind date with the scumbag.

Lu Yao: Pah!

She slapped the scumbag hard across the face!

I'm never picking up this piece of trash again!

As she lay sick in bed in her previous life, Lu Yao had many regrets: not going to college, not living a life of her own... and, out of low self-esteem, rejecting the man who had kept her company for more than ten years at the sanatorium and doted on her.

Later, Lu Yao tore into the scumbag, left her vicious adoptive parents, and was welcomed home by her delighted biological parents. She face-slapped the fake daughter, and everything went according to plan.

That was until she saw that familiar man. He hadn't yet become the gloomy, grief-stricken person he would later be, and she couldn't stop the tears from streaming down her face.

The icy aura around Gu Jingyi faltered: Had he become even scarier?

Lu Ci had known all along that she was the heroine of a period novel. She thought Lu Yao would follow the script and become a village woman who spent her whole life miserably entangled with a scumbag.

Who could have guessed that Lu Yao would return to such a warm welcome? Just when Lu Ci thought she had already lost, Lu Yao actually decided to marry the so-called "Living Hades" next door, Gu Jingyi, and volunteer to become a stepmother?

Lu Ci laughed: That village woman from the countryside really has no taste!

But while Lu Ci married her childhood sweetheart and endured conflict with her mother-in-law, Lu Yao received gifts from Grandpa Gu every day.

While Lu Ci struggled through pregnancy and put up with her husband flirting with other women, Lu Yao enjoyed the double affection of Gu Jingyi and his son.

While Lu Ci argued with her husband over his idleness, Lu Yao's career reached new heights, and she became the best daughter-in-law in the military compound.

Lu Ci's mental state collapsed: Wasn't she supposed to be the heroine? Why was a supporting character living an even happier life than her?!

I just want to write a story about a male lead who loves the heroine without question!

In her previous life, the heroine married and had children. The male lead stayed unmarried and adopted a child.

In this life, both are virgins. The male lead is fifteen years older than the heroine.

Theme: Always stay passionate, always remain full of hope
