In the original story, the previous owner of her body used the benefits of a family-arranged marriage to cling to Xin Mingche, a clear-eyed CEO who knew exactly what she wanted. * But Xin Mingche's true love was her childhood sweetheart, the female lead and the girl of her dreams. Since she was free from love, Xin Mingche didn't care about the other women Jian An dallied with. To her, Jian An was just a stranger living under the same roof. On her first night after transmigrating, Jian An barely managed to escape a chaotic bar and returned home smelling of perfume and rouge. Xin Mingche, dressed in a black skirt suit, saw her and could barely hide her disgust. She wouldn't even spare Jian An a glance before turning and heading upstairs. * At first, Jian An didn't care. She focused on spending money and enjoying herself, and when she got bored, she would go tease this aloof beauty. When Xin Mingche fainted from stomach pain, Jian An stayed by her side at the hospital all night. When Xin Mingche was scolded by her own mother, Jian An stood up for her... Jian An had no idea she was breaking their unspoken agreement to keep out of each other's way, and was falling deeper and deeper. Until one day, she saw the earrings she had carefully chosen for Xin Mingche on the girl of her dreams. Furious and heartbroken, she confronted Xin Mingche. The other woman looked her up and down with cool, clear eyes. Not a hint of emotion showed in her narrow eyes as she said offhandedly, "I'll pay you back for whatever those earrings cost." Jian An felt ridiculous and miserable. She had been foolish enough to think she could change the story. Their marriage contract was about to expire, and the girl of Xin Mingche's dreams, eager to take her place, began doing everything she could to win Xin Mingche over. Jian An handed over the divorce papers herself, pressed her palms together, and smiled. "I wish the CEO and her true love a happy ending." * Later, at a business reception, Jian An could put on a fake smile, shake President Xin's hand, and keep her at arm's length. But who could have guessed that one night Xin Mingche would show up, tug at Jian An's sleeve, lower her head, and plead in a quiet voice, "Jian An, I was wrong..."

[Devoted, gentle top × cool, seductive bottom] A melodramatic breakup-and-regret story * On the day she won the award, Lin Yitang wore a flowing white dress. Holding her trophy onstage, she gave her acceptance speech: "I'd like to thank the cast and crew, the director, and everyone who has supported me. Thank you all for believing in me." The person Lin Yitang barely mentioned was Duan Xian, a woman not even worthy of having her name spoken. * Duan Xian raised their child alone at home so Lin Yitang could focus on filming. Lin Yitang became more and more famous, while Duan Xian stayed right where she was. As Lin Yitang put it, no matter how hard Duan Xian worked, she would never get past a manager's position. Unlike Lin Yitang, whose very first film had been a hit. Once Lin Yitang had made a name for herself, they could announce their relationship and have a wedding. That was the promise Lin Yitang made. Duan Xian waited and waited. Then Lin Yitang's award-winning film came out. The whole world admired her incredible acting, while Duan Xian watched with red-rimmed eyes, despairing as Lin Yitang shared a passionate scene with someone else. Lin Yitang lied and said she'd used a body double. Duan Xian had clearly seen the mole on her waist. For the sake of their child, she endured it. But Lin Yitang went too far, and in the end Duan Xian asked for a divorce. Lin Yitang showed no reaction. As soon as they were divorced, she tried to fight for custody. "I gave birth to the child. They should stay with me." "There's nothing to fight over. The child can stay with you." Duan Xian had no money, and their child would have a better future with Lin Yitang. The pain made it hard to breathe. It was the most correct decision she'd ever made. She was finally free of Lin Yitang. At first, she struggled to be alone, but little by little, she got used to it. It was also the worst decision she'd ever made. If only she'd known that Lin Yitang would use their child to harass her in the future. Duan Xian should have kept the child with her from the start.*** * Melodramatic, angsty, no switching bottoms Theme: Live well
