Starting with the Powerful Man's Wife Who Died Young

Rong Tang's life was simple. At twenty-five, she entered into a marriage of convenience with Feng Sixu and became the envy of everyone as Mrs. Feng.

Her daily routine included, but wasn't limited to, eating delicious food, wearing pretty clothes, and having fun. The only thing to worry about was that her marriage was a sham with no real affection. Seeing her husband once a month was already a luxury.

Then she discovered that this world was a novel, Feng Sixu was the male lead, and she wasn't the heroine.

Her role in the story was that of the ex-wife who would die young of heart disease one year after the wedding.

The revelation hit her like a thunderbolt. She learned that two years after her death, Feng Sixu would marry the original heroine, and Rong Tang immediately decided: No way!

She'd build a career, get healthy, make money, and then dump this husband she'd gotten at a bargain!

She became obsessed with wellness and making money. But as she worked on her health and her fortune, Rong Tang noticed that Feng Sixu's gaze had grown somewhat inscrutable.

One year later.

Having successfully dodged her death flag and become a wealthy woman, Rong Tang met the original heroine.

Remembering that Feng Sixu had treated her pretty well that past year, she decided to go along with things. She sent him divorce papers, then moved that very night into the luxurious riverside villa downtown that she'd bought outright.

She thought she'd be free after today, but that night, a Maybach pulled up outside. Behind the wheel, the man had lost his usual cool self-control.

Agitated, he loosened his tie and knocked on Rong Tang's door.
