Cannon Fodder Beauty Picks up a Hong Kong Tycoon [80s]

Chen Baoyin found herself reborn as a minor character in a popular 1980s-era novel. Her sole purpose was to highlight the female lead’s fame, and she was destined to die before the first chapter even ended.
 
Desperate to survive, Chen Baoyin quickly packed her bags and fled back home.
 
Though her small fishing village in the 1980s wasn’t particularly developed, the ocean meant abundant resources. For Chen Baoyin, who had come from a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by famine, it was like a mouse stumbling into a rice bin!
 
One day she’d go fishing, the next she’d gather seafood at dawn, and the day after that she’d dive for hidden treasures in the sea.
 
With her water ability from the apocalypse, Chen Baoyin felt the ocean was hers to command!
 
The villagers gossiped, wondering why a college graduate like her was hiding at home instead of working. They were convinced she must have gotten into trouble elsewhere.
 
But Chen Baoyin ignored their chatter. Not only did she feast on delicious food daily, but thanks to the ocean and the pearls she casually cultivated, her savings grew richer by the day.
 
Of course, the “accident” caused by her original body’s momentary lapse in judgment also gave Chen Baoyin a headache.
 
Fortunately, she soon fished a handsome stranger out of the sea, adding even more excitement to her life.

Tang Mingjin was the eldest son of a prominent Hong Kong family.
 
Unfortunately, his father was a notorious womanizer with five mistresses, resulting in eighteen siblings fighting for inheritance. The battle for the family fortune raged fiercely.
 
Just as Tang Mingjin was on the verge of winning the inheritance war, he was betrayed and ambushed.
 
First, he was drugged with a cliché poison straight out of a melodramatic novel. Then, he was targeted for elimination in international waters.
 
But Tang Mingjin was a survivor. He miraculously escaped death and even forged a bond with the most important woman in his life.
 
Together, they gathered seafood at low tide, fished the open sea, cultivated pearls, and raised their child. These simple days gave Tang Mingjin his first taste of true fulfillment.
 
When his memories returned, he reclaimed everything that was rightfully his. He and his wife and child settled into an idyllic seaside life that everyone envied!
