“Mom! Wake up!”

“Your man is here!”

In her sleep, Zhou Chengye was abruptly awakened by a pair of small hands. Her eyes were filled with impatience, and just as she was about to lose her temper, she met a pair of dark, moist eyes.Full novel: A cold-faced military officer travels back to the 1980s and pursues his wife with affection — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

The little boy looked about four or five years old, emaciated, wearing a patched, ill-fitting outfit.

Mom? Zhou Chengye remembered his address to her and the impatience in her eyes instantly turned into confusion.

“What did you call me?”

The little boy opened his mouth, about to call out again when the room door was pushed open.

Zhou Chengye looked towards the door. In that moment, she realized she was in a hospital room.

The man who entered was in a military uniform, with a stern face and a cold glint in his sharp eyes.

“Zhou Chengye, you’re crazy! To accuse your parents for a job opening!”

“I said, the spot at the cannery this time was promised to Qingli by Mom and Dad long ago. It’s not that I won’t give it to you, it’s just that I can’t give it to you this time.”

To snatch a job opportunity, she not only went on a hunger strike at home but also threatened her in-laws that if they didn’t give her the spot, she would fabricate evidence and report them for tax evasion at their cannery!

At this moment, Zhou Chengye, lying in bed, was completely stunned.

“Cannery? Qingli??”

Isn’t this the plot from that novel called “Kind and Delicate is a Charmer”?

I’ve transmigrated!!!

In the book, Shen Qingli, whom the man was referring to, was the heroine, and she had transmigrated into the villainous supporting character with the same name!

Shen Qingli, like Zhou Chengye, was from the countryside and also lived at the Mu family’s.

Shen Qingli was kind and sensible and quickly integrated into the Mu family.

The original owner, however, became jealous. To firmly establish herself in the city and secure a future for herself and her son, she sneaked into the bed of the eldest son of the Mu family, Mu Yunyao, late at night when he was drunk. She shamelessly clung to the Mu family and married Mu Yunyao.

After marriage, the original owner, knowing she was in the wrong, was always very accommodating to the Mu family. It wasn’t until the Mu family gave the only opportunity to work at the cannery to Shen Qingli that she flew into a rage and caused a scene at the Mu family.

After a big fight with the Mu family, the original owner, filled with rage, rushed out of the Mu family home, intending to report them. Coincidentally, she was hit by a car on the road…

The next time Zhou Chengye opened her eyes, she found herself in this hospital bed.

Zhou Chengye sighed, the original owner was truly foolish…

“The cannery job has already been given to Qingli, so you should stop thinking about it.”

“If you don’t recognize your mistake, I have no other choice. We’ll get a divorce!”

Mu Yunyao said to her sternly.

Since they got married, although he had no feelings for her and resented her for clinging to him, he had always endured. But who knew she would become more and more spoiled? This time, for her own selfish desires, she had almost dragged the entire family down!

He had to make her understand boundaries!

With a chaotic mind, Zhou Chengye pursed her lips and gave a perfunctory “Mm.”

A flicker of surprise flashed in Mu Yunyao’s deep eyes.

So obedient? Not arguing or making a fuss anymore? Does she really know she was wrong?

In the past, whenever Zhou Chengye caused trouble and he mentioned divorce, she would always cry, make a scene, and threaten to hang herself.

Could it be that she hit her head when she was hit by the car?

Thinking this, Mu Yunyao’s expression darkened. He left, saying, “Wait!” to call the doctor.

But he didn’t know that Zhou Chengye was rapidly reviewing the original plot in her mind.

In the book, Mu Yunyao was the eldest son of the Mu family, a soldier serving in North City.

He, the second son Mu An Yu, and the third son Mu Xun Ran all had feelings for the heroine Shen Qingli.

However, because Zhou Chengye clung to him, he was quickly eliminated and lost any possibility with Shen Qingli.

In the end of the book, the three sons of the Mu family, who were originally brothers, became estranged because of Shen Qingli, ending up not speaking to each other for the rest of their lives…

Zhou Chengye thought, this is a family of love-struck fools…

Zhou Chengye shifted her gaze to the small figure by the bedside.

“He An?”

She tentatively called out.

The little boy’s eyes suddenly widened, and his small face was full of worry, “Mom, are you still feeling unwell somewhere?”

His full name was Zhou He An, and his nickname was Zhou Da Dan. His mother said that a cheap name was easy to raise, so she usually called him Da Dan, Da Dan.

“I’m not—”

Before Zhou Chengye could finish speaking, the ward door was pushed open again. Mu Yunyao entered with a doctor in a white coat.

“Please examine her thoroughly, especially her brain.”

Zhou Chengye: “…”

After the doctor examined Zhou Chengye in detail, he glanced at Mu Yunyao, and they both went out.

The ward was once again left with only Zhou Chengye and Zhou He An.

Zhou He An’s eyes darted around. He leaned by Zhou Chengye’s bed, “Mom, your man is useless! He’s always siding with outsiders.”

“You’re his wife, and he doesn’t even stand up for you.”

“You shouldn’t have gotten involved with him in the first place. Even if you wanted to find a support for us, for us to live in the city, you should have found someone good!”

Zhou Chengye glanced at him, sat up, and gently touched her bandaged leg, saying, “This is adult business, don’t talk nonsense, child.”

This Zhou He An was picked up by the original villainous female supporting character in the mountains. When she first found him, he was still swaddled. The female supporting character felt he was pitiful, so she brought him home.

The villagers loved to gossip. Seeing that the original owner’s family had an extra baby, they said that the original owner had given birth to him with a wild man.

The scandal of giving birth out of wedlock and being promiscuous caused the original owner to be pointed at and gossiped about in the village.

So later, when she went to the Mu family, the original owner, wanting to stay and never return to the village, simply went all out…

“Mom, I’m not talking nonsense, you said it yourself! The Mu family is good to Aunt Shen, but bad to you.”

Zhou He An’s eyes were round. As soon as he finished speaking, the ward door was suddenly pushed open.

A young, handsome man walked in, his eyes full of disgust. He said rudely,

“Good for you, Zhou Chengye, marrying me大哥 with a burden! And you dare to speak ill of my family behind our backs! Then why are you still shamelessly staying at my house? If you have the guts, divorce my大哥!”

Following behind him was a young girl with a braid, wearing a white dress, with fair and tender skin.

The girl looked pure, her watery eyes seemed to speak, and she held a lunchbox in her hand.

“Brother Xunran, the child doesn’t understand, he’s just talking nonsense, don’t be angry. Sister-in-law was hit by a car and is still injured.”

Zhou Chengye sized up the two people who entered and had already guessed their identities. The man was Mu Xunran, the third son of the Mu family, and the woman was the heroine of the book, Shen Qingli.

“She deserved to be hit by a car! If not for that, we would have been harmed by her by now!”

Mu Xunran said sarcastically.

Zhou Chengye, lying in bed, frowned, her small face stern. “This matter was my fault. I apologize to everyone for my willfulness. However, if you’re not here to visit, then get out! I’m your sister-in-law, it’s not your place to criticize.”
