Every Villain Meets Their Match

You think transmigrating means living in luxury, with a crowd of handsome men fussing over you and asking after your health? Scene One: “Miss, you're awake?” You're lying beneath red silk bed curtains, wondering where you are, when a maid approaches with a tea tray and tearfully recounts how you fainted, from beginning to end. Oh, so your soul has transmigrated into the body of a wealthy young lady. You've taken her place, and from now on you'll enjoy endless riches and all the handsome men you could ever want. Scene Two: “You transmigrate to some dynasty and save a handsome man. Only after saving him do you discover he's a prince or a lord, or at the very least rich and powerful. With your modern ideas and ingenuity, you help him cultivate himself, govern the country, and bring peace to the world. You become the woman behind a successful man.” “Yeah, right!” You only see that kind of thing on TV, and you actually believed it? Gong Jing was so furious she could have spat blood. She'd somehow ended up in some godforsaken wilderness, and just asking for directions was enough to catch the bandit chief's eye. When government soldiers finally arrived to suppress the bandits, she nearly got killed as one of their accomplices. Fine, she escaped, but why did she have to flee for her life with the bandit's two children in tow? Never mind. There's a debt to be settled with the one who owes it. Their father's sins shouldn't be blamed on the children. After all, they're innocent. “Heh, you really think I'm an easy target? A gentleman's revenge may take ten years, but it will come. You humiliated me and bullied me, Sun Nianjiu! I won't let you get away with it.”
