Wen Qingran was pampered by Wen Boyan from the age of eighteen to twenty-eight. After they married, her mother-in-law was a little overbearing and her husband became too busy to spend time with her, but her mother-in-law took excellent care of their two children, and although her husband wasn't around, he sent her more and more money and gifts. All in all, she was quite satisfied.
Except that her acting career had never really taken off.
That one regret was finally made up for when she was invited to join her best friend on the hottest travel reality show around.
Who could have known that, just as she was feeling on top of the world, she'd suddenly discover that the life she was living was merely a book? The heroine was the woman she hated most, the hero was the fiancé who should have belonged to her best friend, and she herself was nothing but a disposable supporting character meant to serve as a contrast to the heroine. Her best friend, meanwhile, was the villainess.
The scariest part was what the book said:
"Wen Qingran is a tragic figure, too. Her mother-in-law treats her as a baby-making machine, her husband sees her as a stand-in for his first love, her son regards her as a stranger he could take or leave, her best friend uses her as a pawn for revenge, and her agent treats her like a cash cow to be milked dry."
"The funniest part is that she really thinks Wen Boyan is away from home because he's busy with work. The truth is that his first love is seriously ill, and he needs to stay by her side!"
"If Wen Boyan really loved her, why was he the only husband who didn't show up to see his wife in the first episode? Even the gambling king's son, who was so busy, still came. Does she think he's richer than Young Master Gu? I bet she'll end up with nothing when they divorce."
Wen Qingran: "!!!!!!!"
Bonus Scene:
Wen Boyan answered the phone as usual, only to find that instead of the usual sweet, gentle voice, the first thing she said was, "Wen Boyan, you jerk! I was wrong about you!"
Wen Boyan, who was working himself to the bone to get the group's business in order as quickly as possible so he could go home to his wife and children: "???"
"Come back within three days, or else!"
Wen Boyan grinned, feeling like a newlywed again, and ran his tongue over his back teeth. "You're getting more and more spoiled."
"Boss, the gambling king has been waiting for over an hour..."
"I'm not seeing him. Turn around and fly straight back home."
The wife he'd spoiled was entitled to keep being spoiled, no matter how coquettish she got. What else could he do?
She was probably upset again because of their younger son. It was only fair for the father to pay for the son's debts.
