On Our Wedding Night, My Husband and His Mistress Eavesdropped. After the Divorce, the Scumbag Regretted It Too Late

[Period setting + divorce + pure-hearted leads + forced possession + wealth-building + satisfying revenge]

Modern mechanical engineer Song Zhiyi opens her eyes to find herself in a period romance, inhabiting the body of a fellow namesake who is a downtrodden doormat.

On their wedding night, her husband, He Mingyao, uses a cold as an excuse to sleep in a separate room, then turns around and has passionate sex with his sister-in-law. He even plans to “carry on both family lines,” making Song Zhiyi his unpaid drudge!

The original owner endured it all in silence until she vomited blood and died. Song Zhiyi only sneers: “I’m not playing this tragic heroine!”

She sets things up so the villagers catch the adulterous couple, tears off the scoundrel’s false mask in front of everyone, breaks off the engagement, and heads straight to the commune to get a divorce.

Thanks to her outstanding technical skills, she saves workers injured in an accident and quickly becomes a highly paid technician at a cotton mill. The stern factory director, Huo Xiao, takes an interest in her too. “Twenty yuan a month, room and board included. Interested?”

Faced with the He family’s insults and her sister-in-law’s schemes, Song Zhiyi sneers: “We’ll settle the score for making sure I can never have children, slowly and thoroughly!”

But when Huo Xiao keeps closing in, she starts to panic. Why does this man look at her as if he wants to devour her whole?
