[Spoiled Young Lady + Officer Who Seems Abstinent but Is Actually Extremely Possessive]

Content warning: This is an alternate-setting story, so don't overanalyze it. Any differences from history are entirely the author's invention.

After an accident, Zhi Chuchu discovers that she has transmigrated into a period novel as a cannon-fodder supporting female character: the male lead's troublesome ex-wife who cheated on him.

In the book, she uses her beauty to get away with anything. Aside from her looks, she's an empty-headed, useless beauty.

She can't stand her husband's coldness, nor does she want to follow him to a remote island where not even birds lay eggs. To get back at him, she cheats with her childhood sweetheart and desperately forces her husband to divorce her, finally getting her wish.

But who knew her childhood sweetheart was a wolf in sheep's clothing? He gets her pregnant, then turns around and marries another woman, mocking her for thinking she could ever win him.

With no choice, she returns to her parents' home, only for her family to despise her for disgracing them and kick her out.

The original owner, left homeless, wanders the streets and runs into a fugitive thug. In the end, she dies in the chaos.

When she dies, not a soul is by her side. In the end, it is her ex-husband who comes to collect her body.

After divorcing her, her ex-husband rises rapidly through the ranks, his official position growing ever higher until he becomes someone you can only see on television. Only then does she learn that his family has impeccable revolutionary credentials, though they have always kept a low profile.

Zhi Chuchu, after transmigrating: ???

She definitely won't do something that stupid. Luckily, when she arrived, the original owner had only been secretly thinking about cheating and hadn't acted on it yet.

If she clings to her husband, whom she hasn't divorced yet, does that mean she won't have to go hungry in this unusual era?

She wants to cry. She's never suffered before, so why did she have to transmigrate into a period novel as a wicked cannon-fodder character?
