I Became the Mother of Three in the 1990s

My new novel, Crime Files of the 1990s, is out now. Please add it to your reading list.

Blurb for Crime Files of the 1990s:

Shen Xingyan's grandfather was a forensic pathologist. He kept a notebook about criminal investigations, documenting all kinds of cases.

Before Shen Xingyan had even graduated from graduate school, she transmigrated, right into the pages of that notebook.

Having read it from childhood, she knew the cases by heart and became a brilliant detective.

A young police officer had just been assigned to the local station. Rumor had it that he fainted at the sight of blood and corpses, so he could only be sent to deal with the petty matters of distant relatives.

Who knew that at his first crime scene, he wouldn't faint at the blood or the corpse, and would even show off his forensic knowledge, leaving everyone there dumbfounded?

From then on, Shen Xingyan became the pride and joy of the station.

Gu Fang, captain of the criminal investigation squad, heard that a young officer at a local station could not only work as a forensic pathologist but also solve cases like a genius. Desperate for a forensic pathologist, he rushed over and poached Shen Xingyan.

He clapped her on the shoulder and said, "Young lady, our squad's forensic pathologist gets a high salary and great benefits, six types of insurance and a housing fund, plus all kinds of other coverage. You won't have to sit in an office, and your schedule is flexible. It's much better than working at a local station."

Shen Xingyan's eyes sparkled. The criminal investigation squad was her dream job.

A few days later, after staying up two nights to finish a report, Shen Xingyan gazed up at the sky, sporting thick dark circles under her eyes, and lamented, "Gu Fang, you're a big fat liar!"

The supporting character Tao Yao was weak-willed and dull, a pushover who became the first employee laid off from the state-run restaurant.

Her husband was a factory worker, her polar opposite: hot-tempered as a firecracker.

Their clashing personalities turned their three children into major villains.

Tao Yao, who had the story of a strong female lead, transmigrated into the book during an accident and took over the body of the supporting character Tao Yao. At the time, the original Tao Yao's birth mother had just taken the family's last bit of savings, and her three children were so hungry their eyes were practically glowing green.

After the founding of the country, animals were forbidden from cultivating into spirits, so many spirits began searching for Hosts.

After Luo Yuan took human form, he lived among humans for a long time. But because he had no household registration, he had no choice but to seek a suitable Host, like the other spirits.

Just as Tao Yao was preparing to divorce her husband, she noticed that his personality had changed. He was stingy and flashy, with bizarre taste in clothes: the only color he liked was green...

As Tao Yao wondered what sort of creature this guy was, she suddenly realized he had a powerful knack for drawing people in.

Their once-neglected home became crowded with visitors. With her head full of phone numbers, Tao Yao asked the flashy man, "Just who are you?"

The man said, "I've told you, I'm very, very old, older than you can imagine."

Tao Yao: @#￥%...&*

Tao Yao knew there were demons in this world, but she never expected to get herself into trouble with one. In her panic, she cursed Chen Siyan for being a fraud, calling himself a demon without having any demonic powers.

But then Luo Yuan, who had taken up residence in Chen Siyan's body, appeared in his true form, with long, ink-black hair and an otherworldly air.

After subduing the demon, he confronted her. "You insulted me?"

Trying to save her own skin, Tao Yao boldly denied it. "You must have misheard."

"Are you saying I'm so old I can't hear properly?"

Tao Yao fawned over him. "Of course not. Master Luo, you're practically an immortal. Who would dare call you old?"
