What to Do When You Transmigrate to a Divorce Hearing [Republican Era]

What should you do if you transmigrate into the middle of a divorce? Asking online, it's pretty urgent! Shen Rong had it rough. Not only had she transmigrated, she had landed in a world torn apart by war, and to make matters worse, she was the female foil to the heroine. The happier the heroine was, the more miserable Shen Rong would be. It all started with this divorce. The original owner and her husband had been married by arrangement between their families. They were a perfect match in status, talent, and looks. Everyone said it was a fine marriage, but neither of them agreed. The original owner resented her husband's coldness. He devoted himself entirely to work, neither caring for her nor knowing how to be romantic. As time went by, she inevitably grew lonely. Before long, she had gotten involved with a renowned scholar who was warm, considerate, and shared her interests. The two of them were madly in love, oblivious to everything around them. Their affair became public knowledge and caused a citywide scandal, with no regard whatsoever for anyone else's dignity. The original owner wanted to pursue love. To make her husband set her free, she made a scene at every opportunity, turning their home into a place of constant turmoil! At last...the divorce papers she'd wanted were placed before her. Shen Rong, who had just transmigrated, bit her finger and couldn't even cry. She wanted to sign too! But just last night, she'd dreamed of how miserable the original owner would be after the divorce. The scholar was utterly unreliable. Not only did the two of them live in poverty, but he cheated on her a few years later. The original owner was abandoned, then caught in a war, and eventually died in dire poverty, in a rather unpleasant way. By contrast, her former husband would rise higher and higher in government, with a bright future ahead of him. Shen Rong gritted her teeth, shut her eyes, and threw herself into her former husband's arms, sobbing, "I'm not divorcing you. Not even if you beat me to death." That's right! She'd changed her mind. No divorce. Lu Lin coldly pushed the woman away. His wife was acting strangely. Could she be a spy sent by the enemy? Theme: Important decisions should be made with care.
