On Ye Jinhua's eighteenth birthday, she hit her head and suddenly saw several lines of strange text appear in front of her.
They said the man who had fallen and broken his leg in front of her was the original male lead, Jiang Yuze. After she rescued him, she would use her good deed to pressure him into marriage and secure a city household registration. After their wedding, Jiang Yuze would treat her coldly. Unable to endure the loneliness, she would elope with a scumbag, who would deceive her and take both her body and her heart. In the end, she would meet a tragic fate.
Ye Jinhua glanced at the man lying on the ground and turned to leave. The comments immediately filled with question marks: [??? That's not how the script goes!]
Only then did Ye Jinhua realize she was living inside a book.
She was the original male lead's evil ex-wife, while the heroine was her stepmother's daughter, a sweet-natured stepsister who shared neither parent with her. After she eloped with the scumbag, her gentle stepsister would gradually win the male lead's heart, and the two would live happily ever after.
And Ye Jinhua was nothing more than a stepping stone, there to test the strength of the leads' love.
Looking at her stepmother, who planned to sell her for money; her useless father; and her younger brother, who depended on her for support, Ye Jinhua said: "I'm done serving you!"
She tore up the rotten script, took her mother's keepsake, and went straight to claim the marriage her stepmother had hidden from her.
The groom was Lu Wenya, an officer stationed on an island, and also the finest man in the whole book, according to the comments.
The comments all said Lu Wenya lived only for his country and had no interest in love, and they couldn't wait to see her make a fool of herself: [The wicked supporting actress is definitely going to get sent back!]
But as they waited, Lu Wenya cornered Ye Jinhua against a wall, the possessiveness in his eyes plain to see. "Ye Jinhua, the marriage application has been approved. I'll come marry you tomorrow."
The comments: [??? What happened to him being against marriage?]
Later, everyone on the island knew Colonel Lu doted on his wife beyond all reason.
The comments jeered enviously: [Lu Wenya must be impotent. Ye Jinhua is so resistant to sharing a bed with him, she obviously isn't satisfied.]
That is, until Ye Jinhua had two children in three years, and everyone could hear their intimate conversation:
"Five times today is too much, I really can't anymore, mm..."
"Be good. I'll hold you. Lift your legs..."
The comments fell to their knees: [Please stop showing off! My face hurts!!]
-
Ever since Ye Jinhua gained the ability to see comments, she'd learned all sorts of gossip about the people around her.
[That Old Fan from the neighboring village is a real piece of work. He used his healthy son to trick a female educated youth into marrying him and moving to the countryside, planning to marry her off to his disabled son.]
Ye Jinhua acted decisively. After returning to the city, the female educated youth became a leading researcher.
[Lu Wenya's superior is a good man, but someone switched his child. His biological daughter is suffering in the village and is about to be married off to a local thug.]
Ye Jinhua acted decisively, helping the senior officer find his biological daughter and put a stop to a disastrous marriage.
[That pretty-boy who just got assigned here is an ungrateful parasite. He wants to exploit a family without sons and collect both sisters into his harem. What a scumbag!]
Ye Jinhua acted decisively... Or she would have, but before she could, the scumbag was arrested and taken to the police station by Lu Wenya for engaging in illicit relations.
"You've been paying a lot of attention to other men lately," Lu Wenya said, deeply displeased.
"Not at all." Ye Jinhua guiltily shifted her eyes. "I'm paying the most attention to you."
