For two years, Xu Shuzhi had gradually adapted to life according to the original owner's memories.
If she hadn't had such a strong impression of how absurd this novel was, she might never have realized she'd transmigrated into a book.
The male lead in the story relied on Mu Nianxia, a woman with a golden finger, to achieve fame and success.
Their relationship stayed ambiguous right through the ending, because Mu Nianxia refused to give up her career to settle down and raise children, so he married his childhood friend instead.
As for Xu Shuzhi, she didn't even count as a minor character. She was mentioned in passing in just one line: [Mu Nianxia acquired the bankrupt company of her rival, Xu Shuzhi]
Xu Shuzhi despised scumbags and couldn't stand watching a hopeless romantic waste her life, but she wanted even less to go bankrupt herself.
So when Mu Nianxia was drugged at a dinner where she was trying to secure investment, Xu Shuzhi beat the culprit to the punch, carried her away, and gave the man a sound thrashing.
Then Xu Shuzhi invested in Mu Nianxia's business and became her partner. Taking the opportunity to shower her with care, she explained that these were all low-effort tricks scumbags used.
Xu Shuzhi was a huge cat and dog lover, but the original owner's allergies had made her dislike them.
But after discovering that Mu Nianxia had both cats and dogs, she couldn't take it anymore. Gritting her teeth, she gulped down bowls of bitter Chinese medicine to treat her allergies so she could pet the cats and play with the dogs.
What Xu Shuzhi didn't know was that
her actions only fueled the rumor that she was madly in love with Mu Nianxia but too afraid to confess, so she was doing everything she could to get closer to her.
And Mu Nianxia's gaze grew more and more intense.
When Xu Shuzhi learned that Mu Nianxia planned to interview the male lead alone and groom him into an online celebrity, alarm bells went off in her head.
Just as she was about to abuse her power to kick him out,
Mu Nianxia helplessly kissed the corner of her mouth in front of everyone and said:
"Good girl! It's just work! I only like you. I won't like anyone else!"
Only after Mu Nianxia left did Xu Shuzhi finally touch her mouth in a daze.
Had Mu Nianxia misunderstood something?
But if Mu Nianxia liked her, then maybe that misunderstanding wasn't so bad.
When Mu Nianxia returned from the interview to find Xu Shuzhi grinning like an idiot, she thought to herself, She really is madly in love with me.
Theme: Sacrifices demanded in the name of love are an insult to love!
