When Cheng Qicai woke up, she found herself transmigrated into a CEO romance novel.
The good news is that the female lead, Yun Su Ni, is her cousin; the bad news is that she is a money-grubbing relative of the female lead's family.
In the story, she is a minor character with no role; she only appears in one scene, when she visits the female lead's family.
That is, today.
To be honest, this title was entirely her mother Ms. Yun's personal decision.
One person's sharp tongue can bring trouble to three others.
She felt wronged that her greedy relatives had pinned the blame on her.
After all, she and the female lead didn't exchange a single word in the story; it was Ms. Yun who did all the talking.
However, this wasn't the kind of domineering CEO romance novel that involved physical and emotional abuse or forceful possession; otherwise, she really couldn't bear to see her cousin fall into such a predicament.
She was powerless against the outlaw male protagonist in those sadomasochistic novels, and could only tremble with fear, praying to the gods to protect the female protagonist.
The saying goes, "A little abuse is good for the soul, but too much abuse is harmful to the body." Building a harmonious socialist society starts with each of us.
Ordinary domineering CEO novels are great! Ordinary domineering CEO novels are wonderful! Ordinary domineering CEO novels are awesome!
When talking about the novel's content, Cheng Qicai couldn't help but think of her previous life.
In her past life, she was an orphan. When she was twenty, she had just earned a little extra money and was planning to treat herself to a spicy hot pot meal.
She obeyed the law and crossed the zebra crossing at the green light, but was still hit and killed by a driver who broke the law. Misfortune seemed to be the theme of her entire life.
The saying goes that bad luck is always followed by good fortune, and isn't that exactly what happened to her?
She has a complete family in this life, and she is very happy and satisfied.
Although she lived with her grandfather in the countryside when she was young, she was brought to live with her parents in the city after her father, Mr. Cheng, started working and had some savings when she was in junior high school.
But whether it was her grandparents, the relatives around her, or her parents, they all doted on her, which gave her a complete concept of family.
Although her mother, Ms. Yun, was a woman with many flaws, such as being shrewish, greedy, and somewhat unreasonable.
However, Ms. Yun gave her the maternal love she had never experienced in her previous life. She was also very protective of her family members, and she was diligent and efficient in her work. She was the pillar of the family, and Cheng Qicai admired her very much.
My father, Mr. Cheng, is a somewhat timid man, but he has a very good temper and is very patient.
He was Cheng Qicai's gentle haven when she was being mischievous and naughty, and when she was being beaten up by Ms. Yun.
It can be said that her personality is a blend of both of theirs: stubborn, argumentative, and cowardly.
Knock knock—
Ms. Yun was banging on her door from outside, "Cheng Qicai, I've called you several times already, why aren't you up yet?"
"Coming, coming! Getting dressed." Cheng Qicai threw off the covers and sat up, quickly tying up her messy hair and changing her clothes with both hands and feet.
"If you don't get up this time, I think you're craving a meal of bamboo shoots stir-fried with pork."
"Okay, Mom, I'm already up!" Cheng Qicai shouted back.
"You'd better be!" Ms. Yun warned angrily, turning and walking towards the living room.
Relieved that she didn't hear Ms. Yun's frantic knocking, Cheng Qicai quickly washed up and got ready.
She walked to the dining table, picked up her bowl, and prepared to eat.
Then came Ms. Yun's dissatisfied voice, her usual nitpicking began: "Look at you, what are you wearing? Even the dogs in the neighborhood are dressed more fashionably than you. When we go to your cousin's house later, I'll be embarrassed to take you out."
"Then I'll just stay home." Cheng Qicai had long since become immune to these words, letting them go in one ear and out the other.
Besides, wearing a T-shirt, shorts, and Crocs is the kind of outfit a young person should wear, which perfectly shows that she is a vibrant and childlike female college student.
She felt that she was absolutely, positively good! As good as could be!
Ms. Yun ignored her words and said, "Look at your cousin. She is so well-groomed, beautiful, a graduate of a prestigious university, and got a job at a big company right after graduation. She also has such a rich boyfriend. If she were my daughter, I would be laughing in my dreams."
"Exactly, it's such a pity..." I sighed, nodded in agreement, and said sadly, "You should have switched us when we were babies. That way, you would have a perfect daughter, and I would have well-educated parents. Everyone would be happy. Why didn't you switch? It's such a shame..."
Ms. Yun: "..."
The female lead, Yun Su Ni, was born on the same day, month, and year as her, except that Yun Su Ni was born in the morning while Yun Su Ni was born in the afternoon. However, Yun Su Ni was intelligent and skipped a grade in school, graduating a year earlier than Yun Su Ni.
In fact, the female lead could have skipped two more grades. If her parents hadn't been worried that she would be bullied because of the age gap with her classmates, or that she might have mental health or social skills problems, she could have graduated even earlier.
So the female lead skips one grade and still graduates through the normal process.
In the end, she couldn't resist Ms. Yun's nagging, so she changed into a light yellow dress that matched Ms. Yun's aesthetic, put on some light makeup, and went to the female lead's house.
Because Mr. Cheng was transferred to a new job and promoted to a junior manager position here, his family moved from City C to City A, where the female lead is now. Today is their first formal visit.
The one who opened the door for them was the female lead, Yun Su Ni. Upon seeing her, they were immediately struck by her stunning beauty. Compared to Yun Su Ni's bare face, Yun Su Ni felt ashamed, as if she were looking in a mirror.
Cheng Qicai respectfully called out to the person.
"Seven Colors," Yun Suni greeted with a smile, then turned to her parents behind her, "Auntie, Uncle!"
Yun Suni's parents were cooking. After saying hello, they went back inside to continue their work.
