Reborn, I Became My Rival's White Moonlight

[Please Add to Your Favorites TAT] (Coming Soon: From Cannon Fodder Supporting Lady to the Greatest Merchant, please add it to your favorites, my lovely readers~)

Jiang Xieyi was the apple of the Jiang family's eye, born into a life of privilege. Unfortunately, she had poor taste in men and chose a heartless ingrate. In the end, her entire family was executed, and she met a tragic end.

After being reborn, Jiang Xieyi came to her senses: cherish life and stay away from scumbags.

She had no intention of getting involved in political affairs again, but the emperor wanted to arrange a marriage for her. With no other choice, she claimed she already had someone she liked. In her panic, she spotted a man standing on a high platform, dignified and proper in an ink-black robe. His gaze happened to meet hers, as if he were enjoying her predicament. He was her lifelong rival, Lu Xing.

A sly smile curled Jiang Xieyi's lips. Without hesitation, she dragged her rival into the mess.

She had heard that Lord Lu had a childhood sweetheart, his one true love, so she assumed Lu Xing would refuse the marriage.

But then she saw the tall, graceful young man freeze for a moment before immediately bowing and saying, "I thank Your Majesty for arranging this marriage."

The legitimate daughter of a military family and the young master of a scholarly clan were as different as fire and water. Who in the capital didn't know that the two fought whenever they met?

Just as everyone was convinced this marriage would never work, they saw the usually aloof Lord Lu spoil the young lady until she became even more willful, wishing he could pluck the stars from the highest heavens and give them to her.

In her previous life, when the Jiang family fell and Jiang Xieyi was like a stray dog, with everyone daring to kick her while she was down, one person stood between her and the wind and snow, offered her warmth, and softly told her, "Don't be afraid."

Extra Scene

Jiang Xieyi was determined to ruin this cursed engagement, but Lu Xing was far too cunning. No matter how much trouble she caused, he remained completely unmoved.

Later, Jiang Xieyi asked Lu Xing, "Why did you agree to this marriage?"

The first time, Lu Xing didn't answer directly. He only gave her a look as if she were an idiot.

The second time was on their wedding night. Lu Xing leaned over her, kissed her beside the ear, and intertwined his fingers with hers. His voice was hoarse as he said, "Naturally, because I like you."

The young master of the Lu family had been praised for his cleverness since childhood. Unfortunately, he was rather clumsy when it came to love, turning his one true love into his sworn enemy. Luckily, the girl he loved gave him a chance to make up for his mistakes.

A naturally flirtatious young lady vs. a young master who says one thing and does another

Coming Soon: Story Blurb

Ning Qingyan transmigrates into a book as a cannon fodder supporting lady who dies young.

The System arrives late and says, "If you want to survive, you have to change your cannon fodder fate."

Ning Qingyan asks, "For example?"

"For example, the male lead is still weak. You could cozy up to him and borrow some of the protagonist's halo."

She replies earnestly, "Why can't we choose a simpler, more direct approach?"

For example, take out the male lead, and I'll be the protagonist.

System: ?!

Male lead: ?!!!

After successfully claiming the protagonist's halo, Ning Qingyan becomes a lucky little money magnet. Whatever she invests in takes off.

Her first investment: the saturated teahouse industry. With her unique milk tea recipe, she wins over the palates of the powerful and makes a name for herself among the many long-established teahouses.

Her second investment: the declining snack industry. By coming up with something new every single day for 365 days, she secures an unbeatable position. Her fame spreads from Yunzhou to Shengjing, and distinguished guests travel thousands of miles just to taste her food.

Her nth investment: she starts an imperial examination tutoring academy, hiring top scorers at generous salaries to share their experience and help more unsuccessful candidates pass.

After a while, not only is her business thriving, but the people around her have changed too!

The original owner's deadbeat father finally comes to his senses and tearfully apologizes for his mistakes.

The people who once mocked her change their tune and praise her: "Who says women are inferior to men? A heroine can surpass any man."

The old merchants who had always been at odds with her all call out, asking to become franchise partners in her businesses.

Extra Scene

The northern frontier falls. The Northern Rong army presses in overnight, bringing disaster to the nine northern commanderies. Ning Qingyan is out buying supplies. She immediately abandons her goods and heads back, but still runs into a Northern Rong patrol along the way.

The leader rides a fiery red-maned horse, tall and heroic, his jade-green eyes fixed on Ning Qingyan with a dark, unreadable gaze.

The man lifts Ning Qingyan's chin with his riding crop and says unhurriedly, "Sister, it's been a while."

It's none other than the male lead she abandoned back then!!!

Theme: Stay away from scumbags and cherish the people by your side.
