[Impostor heiresses] [Study abroad in America] [Return home after graduation] [Top scientist]
Jiang Yuan was obedient and sensible from childhood. She saved every good thing for her younger brother. In everyone's eyes, she was a harmless little white rabbit, kind and easy to bully.
It wasn't until her father hid her university acceptance letter so he could trade her for a bride price for her brother that she learned she wasn't biologically part of the Jiang family.
Soon,
Jiang Yuan's father lost his job. The workshop director who tried to get his daughter into university by taking Jiang Yuan's place was arrested. Jiang Yuan's younger brother was beaten nearly to death by his girlfriend's family and thrown out.
At last, the little white rabbit bared her claws.
-
Xie Youchuan's soul somehow transmigrated into Jiang Yuan's body, sharing it with her.
He thought of her much as everyone else did: truly beautiful, but also undeniably frail.
That was until this timid, delicate young woman turned the world upside down.
Only then did he see the resilience and stubbornness deep in her bones.
As one of the first students to study abroad after the national college entrance exams were reinstated, Jiang Yuan traveled across the ocean to pursue her education in America. In a country where arrogance and prejudice went hand in hand, she proved through her own abilities that geniuses were born to stand at the top.
Discrimination in the classroom? Academic suppression?
Her fluent English, outstanding grades, and high-quality academic papers left her professors speechless and her classmates ashamed of themselves.
Research projects and quality resources given first to local students? Foreign students relegated to the sidelines?
In the face of unfairness, Jiang Yuan led a team of Chinese students in seeking innovative research topics. They made the most of limited resources and produced results that caught the attention of leading figures in the scientific community, securing a place at the heart of the university's core research projects.

At the graduation ceremony, the whole school erupted in thunderous applause. The blue-eyed, blond-haired old president personally delivered a speech in her honor:
"Jiang has brought our university an excellent reputation through her outstanding academic achievements and noble character. This young woman from the ancient nation of the East has surprised us time and again, building a bridge for friendly academic and cultural exchange between East and West. She is the pride of her alma mater. The university will always be proud of you, and we sincerely look forward to seeing you reach the pinnacle of physics and encourage countries around the world to work together in this field, making an even greater contribution to the advancement of human science and technology."
When everyone assumed she would accept the generous offer from a top laboratory in a world power and stay in America to further her studies, Jiang Yuan spoke gently, repeating the words a predecessor had said when leaving America:
"My home is in China."
A slice-of-life story with a slow burn.
A fictional setting. Please don't associate it with any real era. Thank you.
Upcoming: The Feisty Beauty's Rural Life [The 1970s]
When she opened her eyes, Sanda champion Lin Mi had been transported to The 1970s and become an educated youth sent to the countryside.
The original owner had a childhood friend she'd secretly loved for years. The two had gone to the countryside together, where he made her wash clothes and cook, treating her like a maid.
When Lin Mi arrived, her childhood friend was brazenly asking her for grain coupons:
"Lin Mi, your family sent you so many grain coupons. Lend some to Zhiyan! Her family is poor, and she's frail. You're strong and healthy, so you can put up with a little hardship. Besides, don't you love eating wild vegetable buns?"
Lin Mi looked at Su Zhiyan, plump and glowing with health, then at her own malnourished, gaunt reflection. She was instantly furious.
Before her childhood friend could keep running his mouth, she landed a left hook. "Go to hell, you piece of trash! Give me back my grain and cloth coupons!"
-
The villagers surrounded an orphan and hurled abuse at him.
"Bastard," "half-breed," and "foreign devil" came one after another. Lin Mi couldn't stand to watch. She rushed over, planted her hands on her hips, and let loose. "What kind of skill is ganging up on one person? If you've got guts, come spar with me!"
Remembering her fearsome reputation for fighting ten people alone to seize water from the neighboring village, the villagers stared at the sky and scattered faster than rabbits.
Full of confidence, Lin Mi patted the man's shoulder. "Well, it's all right now. I'll protect you from here on out."
The young man raised his eyes, his clear, gentle gaze a translucent blue. "All right."
Lin Mi saw his face and went, "...!!!"
Holy crap, he's mixed-race! And so damn handsome.
What do you do when he steals your heart at first sight?
-
With his face covered in bruises, her childhood friend went around bragging. "Lin Mi only got jealous because she couldn't stand seeing me treat Zhiyan well. Once she cools off, she'll come apologize to me herself."
But as he waited, all he got was news that Lin Mi had married the village's unpopular half-breed.
On their wedding night, Lin Mi leaned over him, grinning from ear to ear. "Don't worry, hubby. No one will dare bully you again!"
The girl was lovely, her smile like a flower in bloom.
Shen Xiting lowered his eyes, gentle and obedient. "All right."
A protective, feisty beauty x a pure-hearted, mixed-race scientist
