The Villainess Only Wants a Breakup Fee

Pei Qianqian transmigrates into a book.

She's very pleased with the character she's been given. That's right: she's one of the wealthy tycoon's gorgeous ex-girlfriends.

The tycoon seems like a playboy, but he keeps a clear boundary with women like her, his ex-girlfriends. He never lays a finger on them. Their relationships are purely platonic, without a trace of inappropriate desire.

The only woman in his heart is his first love, who lives across the Pacific.

Even better, every time he breaks up with someone, he offers her an astronomical breakup settlement.

Pei Qianqian figures the male lead may be flaunting his wealth to get the female lead's attention, or perhaps the money is payment for the act she and the other women put on.

Whatever the reason, she's grateful and waits for the tycoon's huge payout to hit her account...

And now, the day after their breakup, she doesn't have to keep acting. Can she finally go after the type she likes?

But despite all her careful hints, the top donor seems to have given up. He shows no sign of paying her a breakup fee. Before long, the female lead is almost back from the States.

-

The night the female lead returns is bound to be eventful.

Pei Qianqian is already waiting at the airport, with her special lines prepared in advance: "Waaah, so there's another woman in your heart! I don't like you anymore!"

The rest of the plot is probably that the male lead coldly takes the female lead away.

The next day, poor, helpless Pei Qianqian will be left with nothing but a string of meaningless digits in her bank account.

But before she can deliver her lines, the male lead, Fu Chen, calls her from the landline at home. "It's so late. Why aren't you home? Do you want to write a reflection?"

Wait.

Your female lead is back. Why aren't you going to pick her up?!

Why are you still lying around at home? Wake up, stop slacking off, or someone else is going to steal your female lead!

-

The male and female leads finally meet again at a wealthy family's banquet.

But they act like strangers.

When Pei Qianqian sees the male lead accept some unspeakable medicinal wine from a rival, she chooses to look the other way.

It's not just for her vulgar, sordid breakup fee. She's also bringing lovers together everywhere and making an invaluable contribution to the country's population growth.

But when she gets home, she finds the tycoon sprawled in bed, slacking off. His face is flushed, and his starry eyes, pulled out from under the covers, are clouded with desire as he looks at her with a seductive, teasing gaze.
