The following is the blurb:
Set in the Republican era
On the surface, she's old-fashioned and bound by feudal ideas; in reality, she's a tsundere who says one thing and does another. X is a returnee who studied abroad, with a rich inner monologue, a goofy and adorable personality, and a strong sense of justice.
Gu Yuan, who was suffering from cancer, closed her eyes and opened them again to discover she had transmigrated into an angsty romance novel.
She wasn't the heroine, suffering so much that her heart and liver ached, nor was she the villainous BOSS. She was the male lead's younger sister, that arrogant, domineering girl who looked down on everyone and had enjoyed bullying the heroine since childhood!
Gu Yuan was shocked. She had actually become cannon fodder, and not just any cannon fodder, but a character who died before the story was even halfway through. That wouldn't do. Gu Yuan decided to save herself.
But they were both women struggling through the same ordeal. Thinking of the harm the heroine suffered in the novel, Gu Yuan gritted her teeth. Girls help girls!
So, while trying to escape her death, Gu Yuan also had to speak up for the pitiful heroine, curse out scumbags, scare off white lotuses, and sometimes work as her housekeeper, bringing her tea and water when she stayed up late doing the accounts.
Faced with Gu Yuan's "affection," Jiang Qing seemed thoughtful. Gu Yuan, however, thought the other woman looked at her with gratitude. So Gu Yuan secretly decided to treat Jiang Qing even better. Whenever something new appeared in Jiangling, Gu Yuan would bring it to Jiang Qing like a treasured gift.
People were saying that the eldest son of the Gu family doted on the old-fashioned, boring Doctor Jiang. Even Miss Gu, who had once disliked Jiang Qing, was going out of her way to please her. Boxes and boxes of rouge and powder, interesting objects, precious medicinal ingredients, and fashionable clothes were being sent to Jiang Qing.
Hearing everyone around her praise the person who kept bringing her gifts, Jiang Qing stroked her chin and looked enlightened. So Gu Yuan loved her so much she couldn't help herself.
Gu Yuan: The heroine of this angst novel doesn't match the original at all! How is she a pitiful little thing? She's clearly a wolf in sheep's clothing that's been starving for ages!
Mutual love, happy ending.

Would two people stick to each other after they returned to modern times?
Please let the two of you have two sweet chapters of daily life after everything is resolved. It's too miserable [cover your face and laugh and cry][cover your face and laugh and cry][cover your face and laugh and cry]
[Covering face and laughing and crying] [Covering face and laughing and crying] [Covering face and laughing and crying] Can you really finish it off so quickly with so many minefields?
I remember the two of us didn't sleep together before, so why did we sleep in separate beds again?
I really almost died laughing
[Transformed] I saw you sent me a red envelope of Jinjiang coins, and you still had to deduct a handling fee. You wouldn't give away all the Jinjiang coins you earned 😂
[Afraid] Did you eat poison?
