When Li Yuan was fifteen, she followed her mother into the Lu family and met Lu Ling.

When she was twenty-five, she left her for good.

-

The quiet Lu household gained two new mistresses.

Li Wenxin was gentle and kind, and Li Yuan was sweet and well-behaved. Everyone liked them.

Only Li Yuan knew just how uneasy she felt.

She was like willow fluff tossed by the wind, like duckweed with no roots, anxious and unsettled every day in her unfamiliar surroundings.

But someone reached out both hands and caught her with endless patience.

Lu Ling would cross half the city to buy her a cake on her birthday, hold her and gently comfort her when she did badly on an exam, and give her the first bouquet of flowers outside the college entrance exam hall.

Through all those years, she drew on these faint traces of affection, slowly piecing herself back together.

Until one day, Lu Ling smashed the flower-and-leaf specimens she had treasured, then threw them back at her along with everything they had shared over the years.

She smiled cruelly. "Don't be naive, Li Yuan. I've been using you all along. Can't you see that?"

Li Yuan silently cleaned up the mess on the floor, then disappeared as Lu Ling had wished.

-

Lu Ling lost her mother at fifteen. At sixteen, she watched helplessly as the "homewrecker" moved in, bringing along a useless burden.

The other girl was pure and flawless, making Lu Ling seem all the more like a dark painting.

So she lured her in, seduced her, and finally destroyed her.

Only after Li Yuan vanished from her world, nowhere to be found, did Lu Ling completely lose her composure.

She had made herself a weapon and entered this game of revenge, but in the end, she was still willing to admit defeat.

1. The female leads are unrelated by blood and are not registered in the same household.

2. The mother is not a "homewrecker"; it was a misunderstanding.

3. There are no romantic scenes involving minors. The story is mainly set in the city, with school-day flashbacks.

"Superstrong Butcher vs. Fussy, Delicate Beauty"

After living in the past for many years, Li Yan one day suddenly rescued a strange woman by the roadside.

The woman was disheveled, her face flushed, and an unusual fragrance Li Yan had never smelled before wafted from her.

Overcome by the fragrance, Li Yan's mind grew hazy. She did all sorts of things to the woman as she asked.

When she awoke, Li Yan discovered the whole world had changed. She was an alpha, the strange woman was an omega, and what she had just done was called "marking."

Li Yan was dumbfounded.

Wait, transmigrating into a period novel is one thing, but alphas and omegas? How does that make sense?

-

Li Yan had thought she and the other woman were wives, but it turned out they were actually a long-term laborer and a landlord.

Li Yan: ???

She wanted to bring home a wife, not a spoiled princess!

Even worse, this spoiled princess was both delicate and prone to crying. Sometimes she gazed at Li Yan with tear-filled eyes, and sometimes she stared at her through a veil of tears.

Unable to resist that watery gaze, and guided by the principle that "if you do it, you have to take responsibility," Li Yan began her devoted life of caring for her wife (crossed out) landlord.

Later, their bed curtains billowed with passion night after night. Before a slap could land, the person's uniquely sweet fragrance would reach her. Looking at the person with flushed cheeks and damp eyes, Li Yan couldn't help sighing to herself:

She'd gladly be this woman's long-term laborer for the rest of her life!

-

Only later did Li Yan learn that she hadn't just transmigrated, she'd also transmigrated into a book.

And the omega she'd rescued was the original novel's top cannon-fodder villainess.

Li Yan was furious.

Damn this plot! What villainess? This was her darling wife!

After Divorcing a Rich Omega by Ji Lu Lanxing, Book ID 9593058

The groveling ex trope / Bittersweet romance

During their three years of high school, Pei Shijin spent two and a half years as heiress Lu Yixue's lackey, and carefully harbored a crush on her for just as long.

Lu Yixue was the Lu family's precious daughter, refined and elegant, dazzlingly brilliant. Pei Shijin, by contrast, was like dust in the mud, spending every day struggling with debt and survival.

She thought their farewell after graduation would be forever. She never imagined she might cross paths with Lu Yixue again.

Until Lu Yixue's parents found her while she was selling her pheromones at the hospital, asking her to enter a marriage contract with Lu Yixue.

It turned out Lu Yixue had a hereditary genetic disease. To live a healthy, normal life, she needed to bond with an Alpha whose pheromones were a 100% match and have a child with them.

Lu Yixue's parents cleared all of Pei Shijin's debts and arranged for her mother to stay in the best hospital and receive the best treatment. Pei Shijin had no reason to refuse.

At that point, Pei Shijin was secretly delighted, excited, and grateful for the mercy of the gods.

By day, she waited on Lu Yixue hand and foot, cooking for her and holding an umbrella over her. At night, she did everything she could to tempt, seduce, tease, and please her.

Yet Lu Yixue never smiled at her.

By chance, Pei Shijin overheard Lu Yixue describing her to a friend: "She's a scheming woman who climbed the social ladder for money. Disgusting. I'm just putting up with her for my parents' sake."

By then, their daughter was already three, and Lu Yixue's genetic disease had been completely cured.

Pei Shijin sat alone all night. The next day, she left, alone, with the signed divorce papers behind.

*

Lu Yixue had always thought Pei Shijin was the sort of person who would stop at nothing for money. She had accepted the warmth and tenderness Pei Shijin gave her, while begrudging her even a single smile.

When she saw the empty house and the divorce papers, Lu Yixue simply thought she'd been rid of a burden. She ordered her people to erase every trace of Pei Shijin.

Everyone else was tactful enough never to mention Pei Shijin in Lu Yixue's presence.

Until, at a banquet, she saw Pei Shijin standing beside another Omega, holding an unfamiliar child by the hand as the child called her "Mom," giving another mother and daughter everything that had once belonged to her.
