Running a Food Stall to Support My Deceptive Omega

Check out my upcoming story: Hunting on the Mountain to Support My Stepmom! A slow-paced farming story of the same type!

Blurb:

Mu Jinyu transmigrates into an ancient revenge novel as the scummy Alpha.

In the book, the scummy Alpha happens upon Rong Heng, the coldhearted head of the Rong family, regent of the Great Rong Empire, and the female lead of the story.

After failing to force a mark on Rong Heng, she begins abusing her.

In the end, when Rong Heng regains her memories, she tears the scummy Alpha limb from limb and feeds the scraps to dogs.

Her death is as gruesome as it gets.

Mu Jinyu has just transmigrated and finds Rong Heng pinned beneath her, on the verge of being forcibly marked.

Mu Jinyu shudders and scrambles away.

-

To avoid ending up dead without a whole body, Mu Jinyu doesn't follow the plot of the book.

Instead, she starts selling all kinds of delicious food.

Knifed fish noodles, fish hot pot, squirrel-shaped mandarin fish, crab roe pastries, rose wine, milk-and-water-chestnut cakes... She hopes to survive in this world.

Rong Heng, who has lost her memories, is sweetly naive. All day long, she just follows Mu Jinyu around, calling her "wife, wife."

She hardly seems capable of hurting anyone.

Mu Jinyu gradually lets down her guard and gives Rong Heng her whole heart.

-

But by chance, Mu Jinyu discovers that Rong Heng, whom she saved, has already regained her memories.

She had been pretending to stay by Mu Jinyu's side, only waiting for a chance to kill her with her own hands!

Mu Jinyu runs without a second thought.

But she can't escape the grasp of one of the Great Rong Empire's most exalted people. She is caught along the way, and just as Mu Jinyu thinks her time has come,

Rong Heng instead buries her face in Mu Jinyu's arms, eyes red. Her pale fingers wander over Mu Jinyu's neck as she calls her by that title in a trembling voice:

"Wife, don't you want to... mark me anymore?"

Notes:

1. The female lead has no cheat ability.

2. Younger woman, probably a puppy-like girl?

3. Food story

Upcoming story blurb:

Old Chen, a hunter, has gone senile. On his deathbed, he's somehow come up with the idea of taking a wife to bring him good luck.

When Chen Hanyu returns home from the mountain after a hunt,

she sees a woman in a small, tattered dress, her face smudged with dirt, tidying up her house.

Old Chen is dying, so this woman will be a widow as soon as she marries into the family.

Chen Hanyu is not kind to her and wants to drive her away.

But the woman stubbornly marries into the family anyway. Before Old Chen dies, she takes meticulous care of him.

After she's widowed, she starts flirting with Chen Hanyu and sending her affectionate glances.

-

Li Niang has had a hard life. A flood destroys her home, and she joins the refugees who flee here.

With nothing to eat and on the verge of starving to death, she hears that a hunter's family is looking for a wife to bring good luck.

A hunter's household means meat to eat.

A wife to bring good luck means her husband is about to die.

Li Niang grits her teeth and marries him.

Her husband does indeed die soon, but his daughter can't stand her and is always trying to drive her out.

Li Niang spends months trying to win the girl's favor. She could melt a block of ice, but the daughter is like a rock and refuses to respond.

After a few months of recuperating, Li Niang has grown fair and strong. She decides to go out and find work for herself, then marry a good man.

Anything would be better than being a widow here and putting up with the daughter's scowls.

-

Chen Hanyu discovers that Li Niang, who has been clinging to her side, has secretly been meeting with her distant cousin.

She looks at the divorce papers Li Niang hands her.

Chen Hanyu's usually stern expression flashes with anger.

If one of them has to be her husband, why can't it be her?

Note:

1. Nothing happens between the young stepmother and the old man. He dies on their wedding day.

Theme: You are my one and only salvation.
