In 1983, Zhou Zhiqing, who had run away from an arranged marriage to seek her fortune in the city, dreamed that after starting one business after another, she ended up deep in debt.
Her adoptive parents then snatched away the little property she had left, drove her out of the house, and left her to die on the street.
Just as she was despairing over her inescapable fate, she unexpectedly rescued Shen Chi, who was trapped by fate in the same way.
It turned out they were both supporting characters in a novel, there only to prop up the male and female leads.
Every business Zhou Zhiqing started was doomed to fail, while the female lead rose higher and higher.
Shen Chi failed every exam, while the male lead enjoyed a smooth career in government.
Since the setup couldn't be changed, Zhou Zhiqing smiled brightly at Shen Chi. "How about we switch? I'll go study for exams, and you start a business?"
Shen Chi thought she was crazy.
Until Zhou Zhiqing became the local top scorer, earned her master's and doctorate in one go, and published papers that astonished the world.
And Shen Chi became a top tycoon.
All their bad luck had turned into good fortune!
Yu Tian had a dream. In it, Zhou Zhiqing was clever and hardworking, with a keen eye for business and a knack for spotting the next big thing. But she was plagued by bad luck, and nothing ever went her way.
As long as Yu Tian followed Zhou Zhiqing around and picked up the messes she couldn't handle, everything went smoothly, and Yu Tian got rich overnight.
She was eagerly making preparations, just waiting for Zhou Zhiqing to let something go so she could swoop in and take advantage.
But why wasn't Zhou Zhiqing setting up a street stall? Why was she studying for exams?
How had she become the local top scorer in the college entrance exam?
And why was she dating that young entrepreneur everyone praised on TV?
Yu Tian stubbornly followed in Zhou Zhiqing's footsteps, trying to steal her life, only to find herself becoming more and more like the Zhou Zhiqing she'd seen in her dream.
Then she heard debt collectors pounding on the door outside and saw on TV that Zhou Zhiqing had been revealed as the long-lost daughter of a general and an academician at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. Yu Tian fell apart on the spot.
Why can't I steal her life anymore?
[I've decided on my upcoming story!]
"The Fake Heiress's Beautiful Mother Is Reborn [The Nineties]"
Ye Zhixia was the most famous pretty widow in the surrounding villages. With the compensation from her late husband, she raised her daughter into an adorable little darling.
But in a dream, she discovered that she was the biological mother of the fake heiress in a novel. Not only had she raised the wrong child, but her two daughters were also foils destined for a tragic end, constantly outshone and ultimately defeated.
She opened her eyes and saw her three-year-old toddler offering her a bite of her apple.
Wiping away her tears, Ye Zhixia picked up the child and went to find her biological father. She couldn't bear to part with the girl, but she also couldn't let the tragedies of the future happen again.
Reborn, Ye Zhixia carried her child to find Lin Chixiao, a widower who had also been reborn and was raising a child.
Ye Zhixia: "Um... I think our babies might have been switched. Look how much this one looks like you."
Lin Chixiao: "Uh, your kid looks a lot like mine, too."
Each holding a baby, they looked at each other in silence.
Ye Zhixia: "How about we make the best of things and live together?"
A few years later, Lin Chixiao had become a famous tycoon, and news spread that his daughter had once been switched at birth.
Everyone was waiting for the two heiresses to fight and make a spectacle of themselves, but instead they saw Ye Zhixia striding down the street in full finery, one daughter holding each of her hands.
With her extraordinary talent, Ye Zhixia founded a magazine and built a brand. Her children's clothing line gave the two girls new looks, turning them into the most stylish sisters on campus.
What? A real heiress and a fake heiress? As long as their parents work hard enough, both girls can be real heiresses.
And one more!
"The Legal Wife Is Reborn and Makes a Fortune [The Nineties]"
Mo Jiahe had always been content with her life. Her husband was in the military, and she had a son and a daughter. Her relatives were difficult, but life was still pretty good when they shut the door and lived quietly on their own.
Until she dreamed that after she died unexpectedly, her husband came home and found their two children sleeping in a pigsty. Unable to take them back to his military unit, he married a woman eager to remarry and secure her position, so she could look after the children as their stepmother.
But although they had married for mutual convenience, the stepmother ate her food, slept in her bed, drained her husband dry, and beat her children.
She jolted awake and realized there were hidden dangers everywhere in her life.
She broke away from her parasitic in-laws, kicked out her blind husband, changed her children's names, and headed straight for the city with them.
From now on, she was going to build a big business and take the adult college entrance exam. If she didn't work hard, she'd end up back in the village playing the dutiful wife.
Gu Shuli, who had returned to the village injured, stared at the divorce papers in his hand, utterly baffled.
In the blink of an eye, his hopelessly countrified wife had become one of the wealthiest people around.

Theme: Study diligently and grow wealthy through hard work
Isn't my brother only seventeen or eighteen years old? Why bother with the object so early? It's considered puppy love. I dare not say that in rural areas, but people in the army or cities do not get married that early. My parents said that at that time, they said that the combined age of both men and women could be 50 years old. Later, they began to advocate late marriage and late childbearing. Then the school started to focus on early love at that time. Men and women sat together in class with the 38th line drawn in the middle. How do you feel that this family has just come out of the ignorant mountainous area? In big cities with big families like this, even in the old society, it is not so early, and they have to raise their children until they are 20 or later. Just like my grandmother, she only gave birth to children after the age of 22. Our family is also in the international metropolis of Shanghai. My grandmother gave birth to six children, and none of them got married and had children before the age of 25.
Stuck here, Dad, you are being unreasonable!
It's very interesting. The books written by this author always make me think they are good-looking and very good-looking at first. But after writing more than half of the book, they start to take a turn for the worse, which makes me feel that this is wrong and that is wrong. But I can't let it go. Every time I see a new book written, I click on it again.
The child in the belly is so innocent. What evil has he done to be born and suffer? There are parents in front of him who can protect him. There is no mother but a father. What should I do with this child? I wish he hadn't been born
It's very interesting. The author specifically pointed out the severe crackdowns of that era, but he forgot one of the most important things of that era, which was family planning, promoting eugenics and postnatal care, late marriage and late childbearing. That was a basic national policy. What else can be said in other places, but your army must never mess around. If you lived in a military factory at that time, you would know how strict the control was. Movies, TV and the Spring Festival Gala at that time were all about family planning and advocating late marriage and childbearing. Those slogans are scary to think about now, not to mention that there were soldiers on both sides. All that filled my mind at that time was this. So after a few decades, the country suddenly opened up and promoted two and three children. I suddenly felt very uncomfortable. I always felt that they were trying to increase the number of children.
The heroine is ranked fifth in the year and second in the class. Their class is ranked among the top ten in the year... This doesn't make sense.
I finished reading it in one day. Not bad.
This book is quite good, but there are too many typos that affect the perception.
Such a lunatic girl will not be able to understand her hatred even if she is beaten to death.
Is Gu Tianrui the original protagonist?
