CompletedCheng Xin kept having strange dreams every night. In her dreams, she was a high-ranking white-collar worker from the 21st century who transmigrated into a period novel, becoming the future tycoon's short-lived original wife, dying from complications of an affair and childbirth. Yet, in reality, she was a village girl who hadn't even finished junior high. This changed when the tycoon from her dreams walked out of reality and became her blind date. In her dream, he was a tycoon in a suit and tie, but in reality, he was rolling up his pants, digging irrigation ditches in her family's rice field. His army-green rubber shoes were stuck in the mud, and his body was covered in dirt and sweat, looking every bit like a farmer. Thinking of her fate in the book, she finally couldn't help but ask, "Comrade Geng, don't you want to go out and start your own business?" Geng Yunye straightened up, stopping his rice-cutting motion, and replied, "My home is wherever I am." The setting sun cast a golden halo over him, making Cheng Xin recall his energetic appearance when he signed million-dollar contracts in her dreams.
Geng Yunye also reincarnated, returning to the time right after he was discharged from the army. At that point, everything was normal; he hadn't left his hometown to start a business, and his wife wasn't severely depressed. Every time his wife's cousin approached him, he would sense a feeling of aversion and being watched. In this life, he would not agree to his wife letting her cousin stay out of a misguided sense of familial love.
Amidst the intense pain of a car accident, Chen Ying heard a cold, mechanical voice: "Life points zero, eligible for fate plunder and parasitism." In a mud-brick house in 1982, she opened her eyes to see golden numbers floating above her cousin Cheng Xin's head—"Fate Value: 100%". She had transmigrated as the cousin of the beloved protagonist in a period novel. The protagonist was pampered and had a happy marriage, while her current body was neglected due to gender preference and was about to be married off to secure a bride price for her brother. With the system's help, she stole the protagonist's fate. The night she finally suppressed the protagonist's fate value to 10%, time returned to ten years prior.
Cheng Xin began to doubt her life. Geng Yunye, who should have gone out to make a living in her dreams, suddenly changed his mind and opened a factory in the village. In her dreams, she was a star lecturer at a foreign language training institution, but in reality, she could only recognize characters and couldn't write. When the brigade decided to hold a literacy class, Cheng Xin was appointed as the teacher. Facing a sudden question from a student, her hand trembled as she held the chalk, almost making a fool of herself. Late at night, Geng Yunye held her close, her lower back against the edge of a hard wooden table, his chest radiating warmth in front of her. His hot breath brushed her sweaty earlobe as he held her wrist, guiding her hand to write strong strokes in the grid paper: "Don't cry, I'll teach you."
CompletedSong Shixia relied on her mystical spring-space to build wealth but lived a precarious life. One day, a "Save the Supporting Characters" system approached her, revealing that an alternate version of herself from a parallel world wanted to trade lives.
After the swap, she found herself as the greedy and shallow stepmother in an '80s family drama novel, serving as a foil to the reborn female lead.
The reborn protagonist triumphed over toxic relatives, divorced her scummy husband, built a loving marriage, and became a successful entrepreneur. Meanwhile, the original version of Song Shixia was disliked by everyone, known for gossiping, flaunting her vanity, and mistreating her stepchild, leading to divorce and public shame.
Song Shixia, uninterested in competing, decided: "As long as I don't stir up trouble, gossip won't stick to me."
However, upon discovering that her arranged marriage husband was her ideal type, she thought: "Why not settle down and enjoy life with him?"
Later, her husband sent her—begrudgingly—to take the college entrance exam, where she achieved the top score. On her first day at university, she saw his photo on the wall and exclaimed, "We were supposed to chill together, but you're a textbook-level legend?!"
(Note: The male lead's child is his late brother's orphaned son. Both leads are first-time lovers and maintain their purity throughout the story.)
