An Yao had been secretly in love with her dream man for years. After he rejected her confession, she suddenly found herself transported to the year 2000.
The good news: her dream man came too, and he was her husband ∧v∧
The bad news: in this world, she and her dream man were the useless cash cows of their families, scrimping and saving to support their parents and siblings. They were so hungry they had grown gaunt, and even their two children were malnourished.
An Yao and her dream man looked at the twins huddling in terror in the corner, begging, "Mommy, Daddy, please don't send us away." They exchanged a glance, and both their faces darkened.
As their children watched in horror, her dream man scooped them up, one in each arm, and charged toward his parents' house. The couple swept through the place like a whirlwind, taking everything, right down to the toilet paper.
Her in-laws stared at their empty home, then fainted on the spot.
Not long afterward, her birth parents took one look at their ransacked house and sat on the floor wailing.

Fu Bao and Rui Bao had never eaten their fill, not once, in all their lives. Every day, they envied their cousins, who were cherished by their families.
Their cousins ate meat, while Fu Bao and Rui Bao ate rotten vegetable leaves.
Their cousins went to school, while Fu Bao and Rui Bao scavenged for junk on the streets.
Their grandparents on both sides doted on their cousins, while Fu Bao and Rui Bao were cursed as bringers of bad luck.
Their parents had always told them they didn't deserve to live such a good life. After being sad for so long, Fu Bao and Rui Bao had gone numb.
That was, until all four grandparents started calling their parents crazy.
Fu Bao and Rui Bao not only got to wear little suits and princess dresses, they also rode in a car and moved into a mansion.
Their parents saw that they ate nothing but meat every day, so they even had king crab, tuna, and black abalone flown in from overseas.
Fu Bao and Rui Bao: O.O
An Yao, a landlady with more than a dozen apartment buildings, and her dream man, a logistics mogul, looked at their children with loving smiles.
