Synopsis

Ye Zhenzhen, the omnipotent queen of the film industry, transmigrated as the despised cannon-fodder villainess and wicked stepmother in a novel. Her husband was wealthy but had a superficial relationship with her, and her stepson was adorable but indifferent towards her. According to the book's original plot, this cannon-fodder villainess was about to face a tragic ending... Ye Zhenzhen thought, 'Since I've transmigrated into the book, why should I fear these 2D characters?' In the face of her cold and distant plastic husband's words, she retorted, "How can a grown man with a body temperature of thirty-seven degrees speak such icy and heartless words to his wife?" Then, she was faced with the irrational demands of her stepson's classmate's mother, "Ye Zhenzhen, you owe me an apology." She scoffed disdainfully, "Apologize to you? Will you kneel and listen to me if I do?" With her outstanding professional skills, she turned her life around by hosting a parent-child variety show, becoming an overnight sensation, and receiving countless acting offers! The stepson, who used to address her distantly and never as his mother, suddenly said, "My mom, Ye Zhenzhen, is the kindest and most beautiful woman in the world!" Haters: "So what if she's pretty? She married an old man for money!" One day, her plastic husband appeared at a charity gala and introduced himself, "Hello, everyone. I am Ye Zhenzhen's husband, the rumored old man." The audience below couldn't believe their eyes and ears! The handsome and wealthy CEO of Huan Ya Group was Ye Zhenzhen's husband?! Haters: "Being slapped back in the face like this hurt like hell!!"

Chapter 1Do You Think You're a Tyrannical CEO?

"Ye Zhenzhen, how long are you going to keep acting crazy like this? I can ignore the trending searches on the Internet since you say it's your job, but if you cause any more scandals while bringing Baby Chen along to record a show this time, you can stop being in the entertainment industry. I'll ban you myself."

Ye Zhenzhen jolted awake and sat up from the soft bed. The cold and attractive male voice seemed to have rung right in her ear.

Trending searches? Ban?

In an instant, memories that did not belong to her flashed through her mind.

Ye Zhenzhen looked up and saw a tall man who was tying his tie with his back against her. She could not help but ask tentatively, "Song Jinze?"

The man's back stiffened, and then he slowly turned around. His handsome face, which was as cold as a sculpture, was filled with impatience.

"Speak."

Ye Zhenzhen's eyes focused. At this point, she was sure that she had transmigrated into a book.

The man who responded to her was Song Jinze, the wealthy husband of Ye Zhenzhen.

Moreover, she had a stepson called Song Yuchen.

The man raised his hand and looked at the time on his watch. Then, he said coldly, "I'll give you five minutes. It's not too late for you to go back on your words now. I'll get Secretary Zhang to clean up the mess for you. From today onwards, you will leave the entertainment industry."

Leave the entertainment industry?

Ye Zhenzhen frowned. She was one of the top celebrities in the entertainment industry before she transmigrated into the novel. She had been awarded the title of EGOT Queen at the age of 23.

How could she possibly leave the entertainment industry? She wouldn't even if she died!

Her life creed was that she would be a part of the entertainment industry when she was alive, and she would be the entertainment industry's dead person when she died.

In her memory, the original owner of the body was now being criticized all over the entire Internet, and all the anti-fans were looking forward to her leaving the entertainment industry.

On top of that, because she had too many scandals, the fans even gave the original owner of the body a nickname: Ye Jianjian!

The reason was that Ye Zhenzhen was a bitterly sarcastic person.

Today was the first day that the original owner of the host would bring her stepson with her to appear on a parenting reality show called "Mum's Company".

On the other hand, the original owner of the body did not seem to have much to say to this man. Rather, it was better to say that she was pretending to be gentle and virtuous in front of this man.

Now that Ye Zhenzhen had transmigrated into this novel and just so happened to be in this situation, she had no intentions of pretending to be gentle and virtuous.

Moreover, the original owner of the body had made a bet with anti-fans two days ago. If she could not participate in the variety show successfully with her stepson, she would eat durian shells on a live broadcast.

So now, if she left the industry, would she have to fulfill the bet between the original owner of the body and the anti-fans, eating durian shells while live streaming?

What a joke, was that even possible?

Song Jinze raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at the woman sitting on the bed in a daze. His impatient tone became more obvious, "What do you want to say? Hurry up and say it."

Hearing this, Ye Zhenzhen's almond-shaped eyes were filled with uncontrollable anger.

She pulled the blanket away and got out of bed. Then, she stood up straight and met the man's sharp and cold gaze with anger.

She raised her chin and said, "What can I say? You've said all there is to say. What else do you want me to say?"

Song Jinze's hand that was holding the suit paused.

His dark eyes narrowed and the corners of his lips curled up into a cold smile. Just as he was about to speak, he heard the woman's voice rise again.

"What do you mean by banning me from the entertainment industry? We are husband and wife. You are a man with a body temperature of 37 degrees Celsius. How can you say such cold and heartless words to your wife?"

Song Jinze frowned slightly, "You..."

"What? Why? Do you think that I'm wrong?"

She couldn't suppress her anger, and she didn't want to.

Song Jinze, "I..."

"What again?" Ye Zhenzhen interrupted him, "So what if I don't quit the industry? You want to ban me? What right do you have to ban me? As my husband, it's fine if you don't support me, but you even want to ban me? Do you think you're a domineering CEO?!"

Oh shit, she let her mouth run before her mind!

In her memory, this guy was indeed a domineering CEO.

Who cares? It felt good to speak her mind, and she would keep feeling good if she always did so.

Song Jinze's handsome face turned unsightly after hearing Ye Zhenzhen's words. No one had ever dared to shout at him in such an arrogant tone before. He stared at her with his cold eyes.

Did this woman take the wrong medicine?

The two of them looked at each other in the bedroom, and the tense atmosphere quickly spread...

"Knock, knock!"

Following the knock on the door, Nanny Li's voice sounded, "Madam, are you up?"

Song Jinze's handsome face darkened and he did not say a word.

There was no need for him to continue. Quarreling with a woman early in the morning was somewhat boring.

The bedroom door opened.

Nanny Li, the servant, had been standing outside the door while waiting for the Madam to reply. She did not expect to bump into the latter's husband instead.

"Good morning, Sir!"

Nanny Li wondered, shouldn't the Sir have left by now?

Song Jinze's handsome face was gloomy. He paused in his steps, wanting to give Nanny Li some instructions, but after hesitating for a second, he ultimately left.

Nanny Li walked into the bedroom and asked Ye Zhenzhen, "Madam, the production team is here. They are at the entrance. What are the arrangements?"

Arrangements?

"Let them in."

Since she was already here, she should take it as it was. She was familiar with the entertainment industry, so what was there to be afraid of?

"Alright," Nanny Li nodded slightly and withdrew from the room.

According to the plot of the book, participating in the parenting reality show meant the book was nearing the end.

As a supporting character, the original owner of the body and the female lead, Han Jiangxue, were sworn enemies. The entire plot was about how the original owner of the body would secretly pick on the female lead and end up getting slapped in the face instead.

In this variety show, the original owner of the body would secretly compete with the female lead. She was impatient and eager to perform. As such, when filming, she would force her stepson and even yell at him. In the end, her stepson accidentally fell into the lake and fell seriously ill.

The original owner of the body's original family was not that great. She was only able to marry Song Jinze because of the relationship between her grandfather and Old Master Song.

Therefore, her husband had no feelings for her. After the accident with her stepson, she naturally did not have a good life at home. She was even ridiculed by the entire internet and eventually went crazy. In the end, she was killed in a car accident when she went out in her crazed state.

After the female protagonist eliminated the vicious female supporting character, she rose to fame in the industry and lived a happy life with her family.

And that was the grand finale.

Ye Zhenzhen could not help but ridicule the plot. What the hell was this?

Was the original owner of this body so brainless?

She had died suddenly on set while filming in real life, but to think she would die once more after transmigrating into the book?

Even a wronged person wouldn't be in such a miserable state.

However, the plot in the book was set by the author for fictional characters. She was now a living person. If she followed the plot in the book, she would be an idiot.

Out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly saw a black card on the bedside table. In her memory, this card was given to her by her "husband".

He had been married to the original owner of this body for half a year and had never laid a hand on her. Rather, the number of times he came home could be counted on one hand. He was either on a business trip or working overtime at the company until late at night.

It seemed that he was going on a business trip again this time, and he didn't tell the original owner of the body when he would be back.

Ye Zhenzhen, who felt that she was wronged a second ago, suddenly felt that she was not.

She had died in reality, but she could live in the world of a book now. Her husband had given her an unlimited black card and did not come home all year round. She did not need to be pregnant for ten months to have a cute son.

Therefore, what she had to do now was to take good care of her stepson and change the plot of the book. As long as she took the initiative into her own hands, she would win.

However, the stepson in her memory did not seem to have a good relationship with her.
