With superior resources since she was young, she was more outstanding than Jiang Yu in every aspect and became the pride of the Jiang family.

However, Jiang Yu had no idea how great her mother's hatred for her was. On the day she turned eighteen, her mother 'sold' her with a named price. Jiang Yu said, "If you want to marry your daughter to someone else, it should be Jiang Ran. I'm your real daughter. You're the one who mistakenly brought Jiang Ran home!" Her mother replied, "Shut up. I wish I hadn't given birth to you. You've brought nothing but shame to me!" Jiang Ran said, "Big Sis, everything Mom does is for your own good. Don't blame Mom." Her mother said, "I'm convinced she's nothing but a debt collector who's come to me to collect her debts! Either you give me two million bucks, or you get married obediently!" Jiang Yu left home in despair. By a freak combination of factors, she found herself accidentally marrying a Mr. CEO. From then on, the thirty-year-old man pampered his eighteen-year-old wife to the heavens. The little girl said, "Mister, someone bullied your wife!"

In his previous life, the singer and songwriter Tao Yao, who ate the northwest wind when she was hungry and drank the toilet water when she was thirsty, had inexplicably transmigrated to a parallel world while she was washing the toilet. However, he found that there was no Jay Chou, Zhou Shen, Deng Ziqi, Faye Wong, and other well-known superstars in the world. There were only a bunch of singers that he had never heard of and their unbearable songs. When Tao Yao, who had countless classic songs from all over the world, met a boss who only wanted to ruin the company as soon as possible, what kind of sparks would there be between a genius and a madman? "What? Didn't you guys say that the lyrics of 'Skateboard Shoes' are at the elementary school level? Why is everyone singing?" " No, didn't we agree that everyone likes a more authentic European and American style? Why is this song,'Young For You', which doesn't even have a standard pronunciation, so popular?" "Hey, hey, that's too foul. How can a random song from the northeast that sings Two-people Rotation on the street become popular? What the hell is this 'Xianer'?"
