In the 1980s, the Reborn Girl Stole My Fiancé

My next book will be "The White Moonlight Steals My Luck," a transmigrate-into-a-book story.

Blurb: Cheng Yue transmigrates into the body of a girl who died in an accident in the 1980s. The girl's mother died young, and her father brought home his former wife, whom he had married without a certificate while living in the countryside, along with their twins. From then on, she had no place in the family.

Her half-sister constantly picked fights with her, while her stepmother seemed sweet but was cruel at heart, always tripping her up behind her father's back and making him dislike her more and more. Fortunately, her maternal grandfather loved her.

Before he became seriously ill, her grandfather arranged a marriage for her. But not long after he died, her half-sister secretly switched the match, giving the original girl her own blind date instead. The original girl was so upset she fell ill for three days, with no one to care for her. When she woke again, the soul inside her had become Cheng Yue, her namesake from the twenty-fourth century, when spiritual energy had begun to revive.

After becoming the original girl, Cheng Yue agreed to the match for one reason or another, and they settled things in a short time.

Cheng Yue's man is a soldier, and she's pleased with that. A soldier won't be home often, so she can live much as if she weren't married. With his allowance and savings in her hands, and having inherited her grandfather's grand estate in the suburbs, she spends her days growing flowers and plants to sell, and occasionally making and selling a few beauty and wellness products and everyday medicines. She lives a carefree, happy life.

But one day, her man takes an interest in her medicine, and starts coming home often.

Cheng Jinlan is reborn before she gets married. This time, she's going to steal her half-sister's man and become the glamorous wife of a tycoon ten years later.

She successfully marries the man who was her brother-in-law in her previous life, expecting her younger sister to become a widow soon after getting married, then be watched by a sharp-tongued old woman and forbidden to remarry. The hard life she endured in her previous life will be hers to enjoy, little by little. But Cheng Jinlan waits until she's a grandmother and is still living in a tiny apartment assigned by her employer, dealing every day with endless domestic squabbles. Her husband quits his salaried job at her urging to go into business, but achieves nothing and is constantly blamed. In the end, he simply gives up, and the couple spend their old age blaming each other.

"Transmigrated as a 1990s Demolition Relocation Resident" - Upcoming story blurb: Su Mingming transmigrates into the body of a young woman in the 1990s whose father has died and whose mother remarried long ago. She has just graduated and returned home, only to learn that the family is about to receive a fortune from a demolition relocation deal.

Because of the relocation payout, her boyfriend's mother, who had always looked down on her for being an orphan, comes over with a big smile and says she agrees to let her son register their marriage tomorrow. Distant relatives who haven't shown their faces in ages pop up, demanding money, asking for loans, and all sorts of other things. Even her birth mother, whom she hasn't seen for over a decade, comes looking for a share. In no time, both the village and her home are in constant chaos.

One awful situation after another comes along to upset her. Her birth mother keeps bringing the children she had later to guilt-trip her, while her distant relatives take turns asking for help: one has fallen ill and needs a loan, another has had a death in the family and can't afford the funeral, and so on.

She turns down every unreasonable demand. As a result, her reputation is ruined, and people call her all kinds of names. She doesn't care. She has money, and no matter how nasty they are or how nicely they put it, they won't trick a single cent out of her.

Strangely enough, she has the power to read minds! If she focuses on someone and looks into their eyes for three seconds, or touches them, she can learn what they're thinking within a certain time and range.

Well, well! This should be fun.

But one day, she meets someone whose mind she can't read. Later, quite by accident, she lands a secure government job.

Content warning: Some awful relatives will show up from time to time. The whole story is made up by the author, so don't take it too seriously.

Theme: Mind your own business, and don't concern yourself with whether others are rich or down on their luck.
