Lin Keying was on the verge of reaching the peak of her life—promotions, raises, and buying a house—when she suddenly died from overworking. She woke up to find herself in the world of a historical novel, where she was cast as the inferior, gloomy, and tragic supporting female character. Her life is full of suffering, and her ending is miserable.
Lin Keying: I’m numb!
Her original self was the fiancée of a wealthy businessman who had come to Hong Kong from mainland China. Her fiancé, unwilling to deal with the village girl who adored him, decided to break the engagement by offering a large sum of compensation (one million yuan), and send her back to mainland China.
Lin Keying: I can do this! It’s just pretending to love my fiancé, right? Who would refuse such a good thing? Only a fool would!
…
Chen Songxian, the eldest son of a fashion empire in Hong Kong, is known for his flirtations and affairs with various young celebrities. His cousin, Cheng Wanting, had just helped him deal with a gossip scandal from the Hong Kong Daily, when his cousin begged him to take care of his fiancée, a country girl from mainland China.
Who knew that this country girl, Lin Keying, was fair-skinned, stunningly beautiful, and had a graceful figure. The usually heartless Cheng Wanting was slightly moved by her beauty.
Later, Lin Keying mistakenly thought he was her fiancé, calling him “husband” shyly as she entered his arms. Cheng Wanting didn’t push her away.
Cheng Wanting and Lin Keying began a shameless life together. The man who had never been interested in love, Cheng Wanting, experienced tenderness for the first time. Everything was beautiful, except that Lin Keying liked to call him “Songxian-ge” (Brother Songxian) during moments of passion…
Cheng Wanting: Don’t call me Songxian anymore. Call me husband.
Lin Keying: Feeling wronged.

Cheng Wanting, the eldest son of a shipping tycoon in Hong Kong, is ruthless in business. By the age of 28, he controls half of Hong Kong’s shipping market. While other young men are indulging in pleasures, Cheng Wanting is famous for never being involved with women.
Recently, rumors spread that Cheng Wanting had a lover, and that he brought her back to his mansion in the Mid-Levels, showering her with affection, giving her luxury homes, luxury cars, and spending billions. Some people even saw her from afar and said the woman was more charming and beautiful than the newly crowned Miss Hong Kong.
Chen Songxian: My cousin has finally opened up?!
It wasn’t until Chen Songxian saw Lin Keying in a newspaper that he realized how beautiful his fiancée was.
Late at night, he rushed to his cousin’s mansion, regretting his actions and wanting to talk to Cheng Wanting. After the long doorbell rang, he saw his cousin in a bathrobe, with red marks on his arms and neck, holding his fiancée in his arms.
Cousin Cheng Wanting: Call her “aunt.”
