After I Woke Up to Find I Had a Wife - Chapter 1

Lin You had transmigrated. She transmigrated into an agonizing, revenge-driven ABO novel.

The only reason she had forced herself to read it in the first place—tolerating a plot that completely shattered her moral compass—was because the scumbag Alpha shared her exact name. Otherwise, she would have dropped it by the very first chapter.

Last night, she had reached the latest update, where the scumbag Alpha, Lin You, accidentally pushed the pregnant villain, Fu Xinran, down the stairs, causing a miscarriage. Unable to contain her fury, Lin You furiously blasted the author in a massive, three-thousand-word critical review. Who could have guessed that the moment she opened her eyes, she would have transmigrated here?!

Lin You: ??? (Face full of the Nick Young confused meme)

She woke up to find she had a wife, and her wife was already carrying a child?!

Was there ever such a cliché trope? If this was how it worked, wouldn’t people who wrote thousand-word reviews have transmigrated dozens of times by now??

The most critical issue was that this sudden wife of hers happened to be the absolute ultimate villain of the book: Fu Xinran. Just listen to that name—Fu Xinran sounds exactly like ‘fùxīnrén’ (a heartless ungrateful person). I really have to hand it to the author’s naming skills.

Her name literally meant “heartless person,” yet she was the one tortured into blackening by you, her stepmother author. I really want to ask the author: do you even have a heart?

In the original plot, the scumbag Alpha harbored a deep love for a “white moonlight” (first love) whom she could never have. The white moonlight merely treated her as a backup plan.

Playing hard to get, the white moonlight eventually packed her bags and went abroad to study.

Before her wedding, the original owner had asked her if she was willing to come back. The white moonlight rejected her sorrowfully, saying, “If our love is real, a piece of paper shouldn’t shackle us.”

Listen to that. Is that even human language? It certainly didn’t shackle the scumbag top and the cheap bottom, that’s for sure.

The original owner, being the absolute trash she was, was forced by her mother and family to marry Fu Xinran, who had just graduated from university.

At this point, Fu Xinran hadn’t blackened yet. Although the marriage wasn’t what she had hoped for, she still put in the effort, hoping to make the best of her current life.

But the original owner didn’t see it that way. She merely watched from the sidelines with cold indifference, icing her out like a stranger and allowing members of the family to bully and humiliate the villain.

When Fu Xinran’s heat came early, she discovered her suppressants were all gone. Just as she was trying to call a friend to ask them to deliver some…

The original owner caught the scent of Fu Xinran’s top-tier Omega pheromones, causing her own pheromones to go haywire.

With bloodshot eyes, she pounced on Fu Xinran like a mad dog, throwing her back onto the bed. After the intimacy and deeply marking Fu Xinran, she gritted her teeth and put on the act of a chaste woman whose purity had been defiled.

She dragged the unclothed Fu Xinran straight out of bed, threw her out of the room, and screamed that she was disgusting.

When Lin You read up to this point, she had nearly exploded with rage. Shaking her fists, she furiously asked the universe: Who exactly is the disgusting one here?

She couldn’t cherish such a wonderful girl enough, yet the original owner tortured and humiliated her in such a psychopathic way. It made her blood boil so much that she wished she could transmigrate into the book just to beat the original owner to death.

And the incident that caused Fu Xinran’s heart to completely die—making her resolve to blacken and destroy the scumbag Alpha’s entire family—happened because the original owner’s white moonlight returned from abroad.

Unable to resist temptation, the original owner cheated during Fu Xinran’s pregnancy. Fearing that her white moonlight would look down on her for having a child with someone else…

She gloomily decided she didn’t want the villain to give birth. During a staged argument, she “accidentally” pushed the villain down the stairs.

The fully formed child in Fu Xinran’s womb was miscarried instantly, and Fu Xinran lost the ability to ever become a mother again. But that wasn’t the end of it.

When Fu Xinran woke up weak in the hospital bed, she heard the eldest daughter of the Fu family—who had mocked and belittled her since childhood—standing by the window.

Flippantly blowing on her freshly done manicure, the woman said with fake sympathy, “Oh my, what a pity. Your mother is dead, and your child is dead too. You really are a jinx.”

Fu Xinran broke down completely. She stared blankly and numbly at the pale ceiling as tears rolled down past her ears. She could no longer hear the mocking insults beside her.

In the original plot, Fu Xinran was terrified that the Fu family would cut off the supply of synthetic pheromone medication keeping her mother alive. Therefore, she could only grit her teeth and endure, struggling to survive amidst Lin You’s cold mockery and ostracization. Her hopes for marriage were ground into dust day by day by Lin You.

Yet, in the end, all she got was the loss of her child, and her mother passed away after the Fu family cut off her meds anyway.

Was there any meaning left in her endurance?

Let it burn. Let everything be destroyed.

A proud wild rose, its branches and leaves scattered, with only the bud still struggling to bloom.

When Fu Xinran reached the end of her natural life, dressed in black, she lay quietly in her bedroom. Accompanied by doctors, nurses, lawyers, and close friends, she passed away peacefully, finally letting go.

From the moment she was born, she had never received blessings or warmth, yet she had still naively waited for the warmth of family.

Until that ridiculous Alpha personally snuffed out the life of the child in her womb—a child that was already unloved by the world.

Until her biological father in name only refused to spare his noble pheromones for her comatose mother lying on the hospital bed.

Overnight, she lost her remaining kindness and the last shred of her humanity.

Walking alone in the dark, she carved out a world that belonged solely to her.

Revenge became her sole purpose for living.

The colossus that was the Lin family took her a mere half a year to break apart, causing it to come crashing down.

As for the Fu family, who were like tiny grasshoppers in comparison, Fu Xinran crushed them to death within ten minutes of their company going public. All their stocks were targeted and suspended, and the shareholders dumped everything they owned by the very next morning.

Ha. The noble Head of the Fu family knelt before her like a dog, begging for mercy, pleading for her to show leniency for the sake of their past father-daughter relationship.

“Ranran, I beg of you. For the sake of me being your father, spare the Fu family. I beg you, let us go, stop this.”

With a cold expression, Fu Xinran stood before the massive French windows, quietly watching the traffic below that looked like tiny ants.

She didn’t even deign to turn her head, ordering the security guards to throw the former Head of the Fu family out like a piece of garbage.

Fu Xinran’s thoughts gradually grew hazy. Her eyes opened and closed. She had forgotten so many things from her youth; why was she suddenly remembering them now?

Even death is such a buzzkill, Fu Xinran thought with a lack of interest.

Fu Xinran stepping all over the Lin and Fu families was a minor climax in the original plot. After that came Fu Xinran’s one-woman show. She went on a ruthless, decisive rampage, quickly building a commercial empire that belonged to her alone.

Lin You sat there as the memories flooded into her brain all at once. As someone who had been single since birth, she truly had no way to cope with waking up to a wife. This felt less like a blessing and more like a pie falling from the sky and hitting her square in the face.

Lin You blinked in confusion. Could it be that the way I died was wrong? She ruffled her messy bedhead. Or maybe the way I opened my eyes was wrong?

Refusing to believe reality, Lin You immediately closed her eyes and opened them again. The woman standing before her with a cold smirk was still looking at her with pure derision.

“Lin You, does seeing me fill you with that much disgust?” The woman narrowed her eyes, cold as frost. Her mocking gaze stung Lin You’s heart.

Lin You swallowed hard, her arms hanging stiffly at her sides, her lips twitching like a child who had done something wrong.

She desperately wanted to tell the beautiful woman in front of her that she was straight, had never been in a relationship, and physically lacked the ability to get anyone pregnant.

So, could she please stop looking at her with so much mockery and disgust?

It had to be said, the woman before her was truly beautiful—an icy, mountain-like beauty. Her aura was crisp, pure, and natural, carrying the innate elegance of a noble lady.

If she were to act in a historical drama, she would absolutely skyrocket to fame. She would probably be hailed as the next “Fairy Sister.”

She had pitch-black long hair, bright reddish-pink lips that were charming yet delicate, and deep eyes that cut like a winter wind, each glance fatal.

Hiss. Lin You smiled sheepishly, reluctantly tearing her eyes away from the woman. She rubbed her hands together awkwardly, bowing her head, not daring to stare any longer.

“Heh. You actually know how to feel embarrassed?” The woman curled her lips into a mocking sneer, turned around, and walked away.

Her slender, soft waist paired with the silky, backless black dress made even a straight girl like Lin You feel a sudden surge of excitement.

Fu Xinran lowered her deep brown eyes, her brow furrowing. What is going on?

The person who usually couldn’t run away from her fast enough didn’t bolt for the door this time. Instead, she put on such an innocent and guilty act. Is the news of my pregnancy really that unbearable to hear? Heh, Fu Xinran scoffed internally with a humorless smile.

Yet, her hand instinctively rested on her stomach. Did she really think I didn’t know who stealthily opened my bedroom door last night to press their ear against my stomach to listen for sounds?

Thinking of this, Fu Xinran’s gaze softened. She turned her head, her eyes warming as she looked at the person with the wildly standing bedhead. She clearly looks forward to it, so why cover it up and look so apologetic?

Lin You swallowed hard. Watching the woman suddenly turn her head back, her little heart nearly stopped out of fright.

“Bzzz… crackle… Host… Host… snap out of it.”

A glitching, static electronic sound suddenly erupted in the quiet room. Startled, Lin You’s limbs flailed wildly as she threw herself into a defensive stance, looking around frantically.

Host? What host?

Could it be the legendary System?

“Ahhh! Did you bring me here? Send me back right now, ahhh! My captain is supposed to come visit me today, hurry up!” Lin You snapped to her senses immediately, shouting at the top of her lungs inside the room.

Downstairs in the villa, the servants who heard the commotion looked up in astonishment. Why has the usually calm and composed Master suddenly lost control of her emotions? After a second of hesitation, everyone silently went back to their respective chores.

As for Fu Xinran, she returned to her own bedroom. The warm and comfortable environment instantly allowed her to relax. She leaned back against the bed, pondering over what exactly was happening.

Meanwhile, Lin You was kneeling on her bed, her bedhead sticking up, as she listened to the fashionably late System apologize.

“Uh… Host, I’m sorry. Due to a signal issue, I could only transfer you over first. You’re familiar with the plot, right? The person who just left is your wife.”

“What do you mean ‘wife’?! I want to go back! You brought me here without my consent. This is an illegal operation! Where is your supervisor? Call them out, I want to lodge a complaint!” Lin You barked at the System, hands on her hips.

The System slowly dragged itself out of the transmission channel. It looked like a little tadpole with a massive round head and a long tail trailing behind it.

The floating sphere flew right in front of Lin You’s face, its blue mechanical eyes staring blankly at her. “Why do you think I went through so much trouble to bring you here? If you hadn’t gotten so worked up while reading the novel and choked to death on a sip of water…”

The System paused before continuing, “Would I really need to expend so much energy to bring you over? Do you want me to send you back now just to watch yourself get cremated?”

Lin You: ??? “Make yourself clear. When did I ever choke on water…”

Her voice grew smaller and smaller as the memory hit her. She remembered now. While she was furiously cursing the scumbag Alpha, her throat had gone dry, so she chugged a huge glass of water. As she turned around to walk back, she tripped, lost her footing, and crashed into the table.

The mouthful of water she had only halfway swallowed was forced straight into her lungs and respiratory tract, literally choking her to death…

Lin You absolutely refused to accept this cause of death. It was too embarrassing to face anyone. To actually be choked to death by water! With a pathetic groan, Lin You buried her face into the blanket and refused to come out.
