the ex husband actually wasnt dead he had an accident and his real family is actually quite rich just grabbed him back and hated the original MC bc they thought she’s the reason why their son who they havent seen in 20 years is living like that 🙄🙄🙄🙄 so they left her and her child alone and the ex husband had amnesia so he never knew

but the ex husband came back bc he saw a viral video of MC playing piano and got his memories back, turns out he’s actually really a good guy but MC and ML already together and MC said no sorry

MC decided to tell him she’s not the original because she fet guilty, and actually ex husband knows!!! Turns out she transmigrated probably long time ago, fell in love with ex husband, but idk I didnt understand she forgot everything the day after she had s*x w the ML. Awww really too bad

so then she was shocked, , but she says sorry, not going back. Dont know u even if you know all about me : (ok so she told him about the novel, before she probably only thought she reincarnated without the meng po soup thats why she remembers her last life.. And so she told the ex-husband you can take the son to have your family name and let him inherit so he wouldnt compete with ML’s son, or feel inferior..

the end her instant son became heir to a rich family who treats him well because son is cute, and she marries ML

MC tried at first to run away from the novel plot. However instead it arouses ML to chase after her. I like that ML pursue MC 'gentlemanly'. Every time MC tried to shot him down, ML will counter back that MC become speechless.

The two kids are also cute. Yan son is a 'good big brother' towards Zhou son. They become good friends because both of them are MC admirer. For now it seems that Zhou son is trying to plan for MC become his mom. LOL.

One of the main reasons our MC is so leery of her ML is because in the novel he uses her and her son's ambitions as a whetting stone to sharpen his own son into a "capable" person. :/ And that aspect of his character doesn't just conveniently go away. But our FL builds and engages in their relationship to create a dynamic where using her or either of their sons that way just wont happen.

The romance isnt the most satisfying. It works and has some sweet moments. The main draw that keeps me rereading this novel is our MC's journey to claim first her son, than her family and finally her life.

She didnt transmigrate. She grew up her whole life with memories of her previous life. She realized at the point of seducing the ML that she had read a book in her previous life with this exact plot. Which meant instead of creating an easier life for her and her son by seducing the ML she was following a path of destruction. Losing her husband (who was her childhood sweetheart) destroyed her, but she kept working to raise their son. She even plotted to get a rich second husband just so her son could have a better life. The shock of realizing her life is a novel with a bad end for her and her son was one shock too many. Due to extreme traumatic stress she forgot her current life and escaped into her previous life memories. She views any memories of the current life from the perspective of someone who didn't live it. We learn all this when her previously believed to be dead husband returns and explains their past. She now knows the current life's memories are hers but they are still distant from her-including her love for her previous husband. Probably cause the author didnt want that to threaten her love for the ML.

Its not a transmigration novel. Its a reincarnation traumatic amnesia novel.

the MC didn’t really mean it when she said she wanted to avoid the ML at all costs. I’m so fed up with her saying the same lame excuse so-i-didn’t-have-a-choice over and over again. Gurl, yes you had a choice! You could’ve always stood your ground ignored the dude cuz nobody’s entitled of your time and consideration, but nope.. U just “didn’t have the choice..” because the ML looked angry and scary or whtvr! Just admit that u really wanted to follow him into his car damn it..

also, she kept on repeating about how the “little male lead” would cause her imprisonment sometime in the future and so she better run away from him yet, she doesn’t stick to her agenda of backing off anyway.. She says she couldn’t help herself but be drawn to the kid as he looked so cute. Psh weak. I mean, if u truly wanna avoid the father and son duo, you could always be indifferent towards them and just focus on raising ur kid! No one’s gonna blame u cuz they might cause u and ur child’s life!

i hate that she doesn’t stay true to her words.. I was expecting a strong-willed MC who dgaf about the ML and his son but sadly, I didn’t get that. So, nope, this one’s not for me.

It's about Yan Shuyu who became the mother of a villain after she got transmigrated into a book. In the original novel, she will married the Boss and become the stepmother of the MC. Her son (the villain) is ambitious and compete over everything with the MC including the Boss' company, and she will be the evil stepmother who mistreat the MC. Well, turns out the Boss only married her to make her and her son (the villain) a whetstone for the MC growth. The MC will bring revenge and doom onto her and her son.

Yan Shuyu transmigrated after she just had an one night stand with the boss. After learning the end of the original plot. She tried everything to avoid the boss, including quitting her job. The funny part is she always fails and only ends up making the Boss get more interested in her.

I especially like how the son knows that his mom is an idiot but still get along with it. It is also cute how the ML's son is kinda attached to our MC. The MC doesn't even realize that she has charmed the ML's son LOL

Here we have little social butterfly (FL's son) that is eloquent, smart, and too reserved for his own age. We have little young master (ML's son) that is shy but slowly becoming more open. We have ML who is so busy with work, almost never seen child-rearing, but (as the narration says) he is actually better at educating and treats both kids equally. And lastly, we also have FL who is kind, beautiful, and hardworking, but slightly partial in treating the kids and has paranoia about future events.

Imagine if we get full exploration of their personal struggles, how they fix the problems, and what kind of influence that this new relationship give to each of them?? Think about how amazing it would be. However, like I said before, those things most likely happened off-screen. Here some points:

• The narration is done from FL's side, so ML's view and feeling is very underexplored. Has he forgiven her for what she did to him at the night of pleasure, or never taken it to heart at first place? (The latter kinda weird but okay) Is he interested in her only because she ran away? Does he decide to pursue her because she's interesting or because he's falling in love? We as the reader kinda predict what he feels (because we have vast experiences in reading novels), but those things has never been confirmed inside the paragraph. Not to mention, the ML is away for business trip for like 60% of the story.
• FL keeps talking about monetary value of everything. I get it that she is so poor and all, but can we talk about sincerity for once or twice? She accepts ML's body, ML's pursuit, gift, housing, and daily necessities provided by him. However I can't just sense a hint of gratitude. At this point, she is still scared of future events regardless his efforts.
• The almost non-existent heart-to-heart talk.
