A Delicate Beauty Transmigrates Into The Body Of A Jilted Fiancée [1980s]

Su Zhi transmigrated into a period novel.

Good news: She transmigrated into a stunning beauty with fair skin, gorgeous looks, and a fiery figure.

Bad news: She became the cannon fodder female supporting character married to the sinister and ruthless second male lead in the original story.

The second male lead, Yue Chunhan, once injured his leg while saving someone during his military service. After retiring, due to family circumstances, he secluded himself in a small mountain village, becoming the infamous bachelor of the area.

Yue Chunhan is tall and handsome, but his aura is cold and his temperament violent. With his fists, he subdued everyone who ever spoke ill of him. The village girls would scatter in fear at the sight of him.

The female supporting character Su Zhi transmigrated into is bewitchingly charming with an alluring figure, renowned as a great beauty across ten miles and eight villages. While washing clothes by the pond, she accidentally fell into the water and was rescued by Yue Chunhan. With their clothes soaked through and clinging to each other, they were seen by the entire village. Forced by circumstances, they had no choice but to marry.

However, the female supporting character was utterly terrified of Yue Chunhan, frightened at the very sight of him. Scared witless, she tried to elope with her lover on their wedding night to escape Yue Chunhan.

Su Zhi transmigrated right at the scene of the elopement. Double happiness characters were pasted on the walls, red candles burned on the table, and the lover in front of her frantically urged and pulled, trying to lead her out through the back window.

Recalling the original female supporting character’s fate in the novel—it seemed right here she was caught in adultery by Yue Chunhan, and they divorced immediately.

After the divorce, the female supporting character drifted aimlessly, becoming someone’s mistress and sinking into depravity, ultimately meeting a tragic end in one of her lovers’ homes.

Meanwhile, Yue Chunhan’s business grew larger and larger, making him a renowned entrepreneur in the region, his substantial family assets becoming the envy of all the villagers.

A miserable elopement with a tragic end versus a bright future and wealth—anyone would know which to choose.

Su Zhi decisively pulled her hand back, closed the window, and said with a cold expression, “Sorry, I think I love my husband more.”

The lover: “…”

Yue Chunhan hiding in the shadows: “…”

…

Yue Chunhan didn’t have much goodwill toward Su Zhi. He had heard more than once about her romantic scandals from others.

This woman was promiscuous and fickle, greedy for money and foolish, with countless men kneeling at her feet. If not for an accident, he would never have become entangled with her in this lifetime.

But, damn it, an accident happened.

After the wedding, looking at the alluring woman obediently sitting on the edge of the kang (heated brick bed), his dark eyes held not a trace of emotion: “I don’t have any special demands of you. Just be able to take care of my child properly. For the rest, we can keep our distance.”

The other party hesitated for a moment, then nodded along with his words.

But just three months later, the man who was all cold indifference at the wedding completely lost control, forgetting his own words about keeping their distance. He passionately and devoutly cupped her face and kissed her.

“Zhi Zhi…”

…

Recently, the biggest gossip in the village was the marriage between Yue Chunhan and Su Zhi.

Chatting during their leisure time, they all thought Su Zhi, despite her good looks, was too delicate and weak. She’d probably be beaten and sent back home by Yue Chunhan the very next day after the wedding.

Everyone was watching the spectacle, even placing bets on how many days Su Zhi could last.

They waited and waited. They waited until Yue Chunhan’s leg injury was healed, until his business grew bigger and bigger, until even their town mayor had to treat Yue Chunhan with respect, and Su Zhi still hadn’t been beaten and run off. Their anticipated spectacle never materialized.

By the time Su Zhi was pregnant, every time she went out, they could see Yue Chunhan carefully holding her with a gentle expression on his face, as if he wanted to hold her in his mouth and cradle her in his hands.

The villagers were bewildered.

… Was this still the Yue Chunhan they knew?
