Jiang Chiyu transmigrated into the body of a wealthy family’s long-lost “true daughter.” For a five-million-dollar dowry, her adoptive parents planned to marry her off to the Pei family’s eldest son—a man rumored to bring misfortune to his wives and destined for an early grave.
The original owner: “Why don’t you make my sister marry him? I’d rather die than marry him!”
Jiang Chiyu: “I’ll marry him! I’ll marry him! I’ll marry him!”
Are you kidding? Once Pei Jinnian kicks the bucket, his ten-billion-dollar inheritance would belong to her alone! Being a young widow with a dead husband—life couldn’t get any better than that!
Besides, there was no telling when her biological wealthy parents would actually find her. Instead of suffering through bullying and neglect at her adoptive home, she might as well marry into high society and become a wealthy widow.
After she actually married into the Pei family, her adoptive parents and younger sister waited eagerly for her to be “cursed to death” by the short-lived Pei Jinnian. To their shock, Pei Jinnian died first, leaving Jiang Chiyu with a staggering ten-billion-dollar inheritance.
Her adoptive parents and sister couldn’t sit still any longer; they held out their hands and demanded money. Jiang Chiyu simply closed her eyes and put on an act: “My husband’s soul hasn’t even crossed over yet. How could you be so heartless as to bring this up now?”
When her late husband’s old enemies came knocking, demanding her life, Jiang Chiyu immediately turned to the authorities: “Officer! There’s someone here with an illegal firearm! My life is entirely in your hands!”
When the “fake” daughter slandered her with rumors of spending a fortune on male models, Jiang Chiyu wailed inconsolably before her late husband’s memorial tablet: “My devotion to you is witnessed by the heavens and the earth! How could I ever betray you? Husband, please, say something!”
And then, her husband actually spoke.
Amidst the bustling crowd, the husband she had only met a handful of times walked toward her step by step. He finally came to a halt in front of her, looking down at her with a faint smile. “I believe you,” he said.
On the seventh day after his “death,” the late husband rose from the grave.
Jiang Chiyu: Oh no… has my “Rich Widow Trial Membership” already expired?
