A ’90s Hong Kong Tycoon's Daily Gossip

[Story blurb]

After dying suddenly, Lin Haoyu transmigrates into a 1990s Hong Kong tycoon-family novel. The original character didn't even get to be a background extra; she was merely the heroine's cousin, who died young.

When Lin Haoyu opens her eyes, she's faced with a playboy father, a shrewd mother, a rebellious younger brother, and her own frail self.

The good news is that the Lin family is a Hong Kong tycoon family. She's starting life in Rome, so she won't have to claw her way from an orphanage to the workplace like she did in her previous life, working herself to death.

Great. She's here to join the family, and from now on, she's going to be... the family's laid-back big sister!

Heh heh, let her put her hands on her hips for a moment~

The Hong Kong tycoon families are like one huge melon patch. Lin Haoyu becomes a little marmot, hopping around to watch all the drama. She lies flat while gorging herself on gossip, enjoying a wonderfully comfortable life in the lap of luxury.

One day, the Lin family patriarch, in other words, her grandfather, pushes her into an arranged marriage. Her intended is Xie Zhijin, the young patriarch of the Xie family.

Everyone knows Xie Zhijin is exceptionally capable and ruthless. Using thunderous methods, he has forced his own father, uncles, and all the other Xie family members of his generation to behave themselves. Lin Haoyu takes one look and sees he's handsome, rich, and morally upstanding.

Isn't this the perfect rich-family man?

Lin Haoyu waves a hand. “Great. I'll keep lying flat and watching the gossip somewhere else.”

Xie Zhijin agrees to the arranged marriage. At first, he simply finds Lin Haoyu pleasant to look at. Later, the way he looks at her becomes something more.

On the night of his wedding, Qi Fengnian dreams that he's the villain in a novel who constantly opposes the male lead. He schemes and plots, but only ends up paving the way for the male lead, eventually helping him become the richest man in the country.

On the second morning of his marriage, Qi Fengnian wakes up and looks at his lovely wife, Su Xiaowan. In the novel, they are the villainous couple: he opposes the male lead, while his wife picks fights with the heroine. In the end, they both get so furious that they die.

Qi Fengnian: “...”

Su Xiaowan wakes up on the second morning of her marriage and gets bound to some kind of System that rewards her with food for watching the drama. After figuring it out, she finally understands: as long as she watches the action, this thing rewards her with delicious food!

Su Xiaowan, who is strong but often goes hungry, lights up. “I'll watch the drama!”

Luckily, the courtyard she's married into is always full of chaos and commotion. From then on, Su Xiaowan is at the forefront of all the gossip, rushing toward every bit of excitement. She literally eats her fill of gossip.

Whenever Su Xiaowan goes to watch the drama, Qi Fengnian follows close behind. Since he's hers, she brings him along, looks out for him, and occasionally feeds him the leftovers from her delicious rewards. Then she makes him hand over his entire salary. Life is wonderful~

Qi Fengnian, threatened by his wife with her fists: “...”
