[Career-driven heroine who doesn't overthink things VS reserved hero with exceptional drive and follow-through]
Lu Wensheng is an ordinary fashion designer. After finally achieving a little success, she was enjoying a drink at home and the evening breeze when she suddenly died. When she opened her eyes again, she was in a strange world.
Transmigrating was one thing...
Day one after transmigrating: The tailor shop was bankrupt, and her pockets were emptier than her face. To top it off, her nasty relatives came knocking, as if they couldn't stand the thought of her having an easy life.
Lu Wensheng: ??? Where's my golden finger? Where's my System? Where's my transmigrator buff?!
Caw, caw, caw...
All that answered her were a few birds flying past, laughing mercilessly.
Day two after transmigrating: That night, a masked stranger held a knife to her throat.
When the mask came off, she discovered it was none other than the famous general who had helped her earlier that day.
Lu Wensheng: Did I get this wrong? Is this really supposed to be an ancient-world business story? What is going on?
The general said expressionlessly, "Don't move."
Lu Wensheng swallowed, thinking, I wasn't moving anyway.
What is this guy's problem?
With no other choice, she had to pick up her old trade to survive and bring modern designs to her tailor shop.
Improved ruqun dresses, mixed styles, ink-dyeing techniques: she made whatever her inspiration called for.
Surely that didn't count as copying...
No, no, no. How could a transmigrator's work be called copying?
From being ignored to having customers crowd her shop.
From having nothing to do to having orders booked three months in advance.
The shop grew from one location to two, then expanded from the main store to a branch.
Lu Wensheng couldn't have been happier, clutching her heavy purse of money.
Just when her business was going wonderfully, the general who had once held a knife to her throat suddenly stopped her carriage to Jiangnan, his eyes red with tears.
"Once things here are settled, I'll go with you to Jiangnan. Will you give me a place by your side then?"
Lu Wensheng hugged her purse with one arm and pulled the handsome general's face close with the other.
She planted a loud kiss on his cheek.
"Don't worry. I'll make sure you eat well and live the good life!"
