Salt-baked Peach

Wen Qiao had transmigrated into a book, becoming a notorious, brainless, and easily replaceable vase-like minor celebrity.
The worst part was that the first scene she entered was literally a path to disaster; at her own engagement party, she was plotting to seduce the male lead into an irrevocable situation, not to mention that she wanted to break off her engagement with her wealthy, handsome fiancé!
Wen Qiao stated, "This cannon fodder script must be changed!"
Thus, netizens saw a dramatic transformation in Wen Qiao, who previously had been utterly lovesick and only chased after a man. She became a living, breathing person who aggressively won awards until her hands were sore.
Moreover, she had a group of men chasing after her.
At the height of her career, Wen Qiao suddenly went public with her sweet relationship with a business tycoon.
At the award ceremony, when reporters asked if she planned to marry.
Wen Qiao, holding her trophy, had an answer that turned heads, "No, why would I give up the whole forest for one tree?"
A couple of days later, Wen Qiao posted a photo of her marriage certificate online with the caption—
From now on, I'm Mrs. Fu.
Netizens: Didn't you say no marriage?
-
The super-topic about "Wen Ji and Qi Wu," a couple made popular by a variety show, disappeared overnight.
Netizens: ?? Where's my shipped couple?
Fu Jinghen: I took care of it.
How could my wife be paired up with someone else?

My Superstar Wife Is So Popular

Jiang Wei seemed not to have expected Wen Qiao to say that, startled for a moment, "Qiaoqiao really knows how to joke."


Wen Qiao, however, was dead serious, "I'm not joking, do you prefer cash, WeChat, or Alipay? Writing a check is fine too."


Just as Jiang Wei took it seriously and pulled out her phone, Wen Qiao waved her hand again, "Never mind, I was just teasing you."


Feeling played, Jiang Wei was stifled with annoyance but still forced a smile onto her face, "Qiaoqiao really knows how to make people happy."


Wen Qiao fiddled with a strand of hair beside her cheek, saying disinterestedly, "I have a dog at home that I usually tease, seeing you just gave me a knee-jerk reaction, sorry about that."


How could Jiang Wei not hear the insinuation in her words, her face turning slightly pale with anger, she helplessly looked towards Fu Jinghen.


Fu Jinghen, who had been silent all this while, finally spoke, "You go ahead inside."


After Jiang Wei left, Fu Jinghen turned to look at the little woman beside him, smiling happily, "You don't like Jiang Wei?"


It was phrased like a question, but he spoke in a declarative tone.


"Yeah." Wen Qiao inexplicably looked at him, "You're so positive about it, why even ask, saliva doesn't cost money, so you just waste it as you wish."


He was mocking her, couldn't she hear it?


Wen Qiao glanced at the bag in Fu Jinghen's hand, and a thought suddenly popped into her mind, "President Fu, how about we make a bet?"


Before Wen Qiao could answer, Feng Li ran out from the front hall, "President Fu, sir, madam, the banquet is about to begin, please go inside."


Wen Qiao nodded, "Let's talk later tonight."


After the engagement ceremony ended, and all the guests had dispersed, Wen Qiao turned around and saw a flamboyantly dressed woman standing behind her; startled, she took a big step back, staring at Hua Huadie, "Who are you?"


Hua Huadie thought she was joking and didn't think too much of it, pulling her back and handing her a bag, "Don't say Sister Yao doesn't care about you, this is the engagement gift I prepared for you. Today is your first day of engagement to President Fu, strike while the iron is hot and secure him, and while you're at it, drop a hint about the leading lady role in 'Red Makeup.'"


Having said this, Wen Qiao sorted through her mind and recalled information about this person before her.


Jiang Yao, Wen Qiao's agent, a couple of years older than her original self, had a decent relationship with her original form, and didn't leave her even when the Wen Family fell on hard times. However, as her original self's path became more and more skewed, their relationship eventually broke down.


She was outstanding at her job and really nice to her original self, always treating her like a little sister.


After Jiang Yao said this, she hurriedly left, as if she was a thief in a rush.


Once Jiang Yao had gone, Wen Qiao opened the bag for a quick look and then immediately closed it.


She figured out why Jiang Yao had run off so quickly.


She was afraid of being beaten to death by her!


However, she couldn't shake the feeling that something was slightly off.


Listening to the sound of running water from the bathroom, Wen Qiao lay back on the sofa, pondering how to approach Fu Jinghen about 'Red Makeup.'


'Red Makeup' was a big historical IP drama to be released in the second half of the year by Huasong Film and Television under the FS Group, adapted from a novel of the same name, telling the story of Princess Ronghuan of Jing Country falling in love with her guard, overcoming all objections to marry him, only to discover on her wedding day that the guard who had been by her side for years was the enemy country's Crown Prince, leading to the downfall of her nation by bringing the wolf into the fold.
