Black and White

Gu Fenyi wakes up one day to find she's inside a novel—not as the main character, but as the soon-to-be divorced wife who is supposed to die young.

In her past life, she came from a strong military family and led the powerful Sheng clan, earning respect from over 400 members. Now, looking at her husband's four younger siblings in this modern world, she can't help but shake her head.

"Back in my time, men from the Sheng family fought in battles, rose in the army, and held power at court," she thinks. "How did these boys turn out so... useless?"

With her husband always away, divorce seems inevitable. But first, she has a more important job: turning these lazy siblings into real person.

Months later, her husband Ye Wen finally comes home after winning a big award. He's shocked by what he finds.

His brother
Ye Weijia, now a successful actor, says: "The person I'm most thankful for—and love most—is my sister-in-law."

Ye Wenshu, now a top student and celebrity, adds: "I'm most grateful to my sister-in-law, and she's also who I love most."

Ye Wenhong, proudly wearing his gold medal won for the country, declares: "I respect and thank my sister-in-law more than anyone."

Ye Wenbo, holding his graduation certificate, says: "I owe everything to my sister-in-law."

Even a former enemy publicly states: "The woman I admire most is Miss Gu Fenyi."
Everyone is confused: "???"

Ye Wen panics: "Is my wife cheating on me?"

Only then does he realize the truth—the woman he once found annoying has become amazing, loved and respected by everyone. And they're all just waiting for him to sign the divorce papers.

Will Gu Fenyi follow her "fate" as the discarded wife, or will she use her military smarts to create a different ending? One thing's clear—her arrival has completely changed the original story.

Accidentally His Heiress

When she heard about the disappearance of Ye Wen from Cao Jiaye, she came up with a brilliant idea. 


Three months earlier, she attended a hotel for an event and incidentally left the hotel one after another with Ye Wen. The paparazzi, aware that she was one of the lovers to a big player, had been hanging around for a period of time but couldn't pick up anything helpful. She did not think the paparazzi would assume Ye Wen was her backer. 


But today, this random affair turned into her best cover. 


As long as she is regarded as Ye Wen's mistress, even if Fu Rui doubts, the connection between their families makes her hard to suspect. 


Lu Meng licks her dry lips. "…Really, is there really no accident? If Ye Wen returns alive…" 


And then she would be worse off than provoking Fu Rui! 


"Ye wen is nowhere to be found in Africa, where the Ebola epidemic is erupting. He cannot return alive," Cao Jiaye insists over the phone. 


By now, Cao Jiaye is even more impatient. "The plan was what you imagined. Are you regretting it now? Fine, if you regret it in the future, then go and dispose of the child." 


No, I do not regret it. It is just… Gu Fenyi… something's wrong with Gu Fenyi." 


"What could be amiss with her? Is she crazy? That’s better! that she is mad. The madder she gets, the more natural it would appear. Then Fu Rui would have nothing to question about your identity." 


"She's crazy… but this time, it's not merely breaking up antiques in the Ye House or clamoring to keep me hidden in the snow. She actually hit people…" 


Why are you making big deal about it? The Ye family desires face. Apart from that, if Ye Wen doesn't return, they'll surely guard you if you claim that you're pregnant with his child. This 'only bloodline of Ye Wen'—how can she assault you? What are you scared of?" 


"Where are the bodyguards of the Ye family? 


"She even dared to strike Ye Wenbo and Jiang Jing, and the bodyguards couldn't hold her back! I'm afraid… You know what sort of whip she's carrying. The belt's as thick as my fingers. If she strikes it on my body, your son's gone… Do you truly not care?" Lu Meng says, sounding afraid and wronged, with just the right touch of acting, as she begins to cry softly. 


Cao Jiaye eases up on the tone. "Why are you crying? What's the problem? She slapped Jiang Jing, right? Alright, alright, I'll inform the Jiang family about this. When the Jiang family gets to know about this, she won't be able to fight with you." 


Lu Meng manages to get out some words in reply, flattering him a bit, assuring him that she can manage, and then puts down the phone. 


As soon as the phone is tucked away, Lu Meng drops drops her crying expression. 


The driver nods at once knowingly. "Miss Lu, don't worry, I'm Mr. Cao's man. I won't speak outside."
