I Dumped My Handsome, Tragic Husband (Women Rule)

Jiang Mian has just passed her postgraduate entrance exams when she somehow finds herself in another world, as a notoriously cruel and tyrannical wife. She nearly gets strangled in a river by the husband she has in name only.

Faced with a penniless household and a husband who often appears in her dreams,

Jiang Mian has a lot she can't explain.

To make matters worse, her husband seems to have some kind of illness. One moment he's curled in her arms, crying softly; the next, he's biting hard into her shoulder and neck, refusing to let go even as blood starts to seep out.

Jiang Mian suspects Xu Zhijiu is sweet on the outside but dark within.

But that doesn't seem to be the case.

Could he simply be ill?

Could he have the infamous split personality?

A handsome, refined young gentleman has appeared in Qingjiang Town.

The matchmakers who come to propose for him have nearly worn down his doorstep, but the young gentleman already has someone in his heart, leaving everyone else to sigh in disappointment.

But the person he loves is a country woman?

To everyone's bewilderment, this pampered young master is determined to marry into a village woman's home.

But Xu Zhijiu finds no dreamlike bliss with his beloved. Instead, he faces baseless suspicions and endless beatings and verbal abuse.

Clear-headed, witty heroine Jiang Mian x split-personality hero Xu Zhijiu

Primary personality: obedient, sensible, tolerant, and dignified

Secondary personality: sweet on the outside but dark within, with a pitiful, manipulative charm

[Switches with emotional shifts or excessive contact]

Notes:

1. Transmigration into another person's body, but both are virgins and each other's first love. A cycle of cause and effect, and their first meeting is a reunion. The male lead loves only the heroine from beginning to end. Lots of original worldbuilding; later the story turns to court politics.

2. The primary personality has no memories of being beaten. The personalities' memories are not shared, and each is independent.

3. The primary personality is delicate, soft, and extremely clingy. He believes everything the heroine says and always takes her side. Even if she lies to him, he thinks it's fine as long as she doesn't abandon him.

4. The secondary personality gets more page time and becomes more extreme later on. Skipping chapters is not recommended, as the male lead switches personalities easily.

5. Male pregnancy.
