After Transmigrating, I Gained a Wife - Chapter 1

Early in the morning, after Luo Yan got up, the first thing she did was book a taxi for 7:30. It was exactly five o’clock now, so she still had plenty of time.

Luo Yan stood by the window and looked outside. The streetlights were still on, illuminating this city she could not be more familiar with. The home she lived in now was one she had bought with money she had earned herself. It was on the thirty-seventh floor, and it was only a little over ten minutes from the city center. Looking out from afar, she could clearly see all kinds of different buildings nearby.

Luo Yan had gone to bed very early last night, precisely so she would have enough time this morning to enjoy a proper breakfast.

After washing up, Luo Yan fried two slices of bacon and some tenderloin, placed them on top of a freshly cooked egg pancake, added seasoning, and leisurely began eating.

It smelled so good~ Luo Yan happily enjoyed her breakfast.

After breakfast, Luo Yan cleaned up the pots and bowls, then lay down on the sofa to rest for a few minutes before leaving right on time. When she got downstairs, the sky still had not fully brightened, and the streetlights were still on.

Luo Yan thought, the streetlights probably wouldn’t be turned off until around eight, right?

Within two minutes, the taxi arrived. Luo Yan got into the taxi, and then an indescribable feeling rose in her heart. Her chest quickly began to feel unbearably tight, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

Looking at the driver, Luo Yan spoke up. “Sir, could you please open the window just a little? Thank you.”

The window opened and air came in, but Luo Yan did not feel any better. Right after that, Luo Yan took out her earphones and turned on some music to distract herself.

Mm… Even after listening to music, she still did not feel better. It was not helping at all… Her chest felt so tight it was terribly uncomfortable, and Luo Yan began muttering to herself in her heart.

Today, Luo Yan was going out to have fun. Her friend had already planned out where they were going. But right now, Luo Yan felt that there was no need to go out anymore. She kept feeling that something was wrong, and her body was inexplicably uncomfortable too.

Could it be? Was today’s so-called internet-famous holy land another scam…?

No way it could be that much of a rip-off!

She had done her research on the scenic spot in advance. The scenery there was very good, so it probably was not a scam. She would probably stop feeling uncomfortable once she got there. Before Luo Yan could continue thinking any further, the car was suddenly sent flying!

!!!

What the fuck!

Was she really this unlucky today?!

A large truck suddenly went out of control. The driver frantically turned the steering wheel in front of him, and the entire truck spun in place. After crashing into the taxi Luo Yan was in, it slammed hard into the greenery in the middle of the road. The instant the collision happened, the front of the taxi was immediately smashed inward, and the driver died on the spot!

There was greenery in the middle of the road, so it did not affect the traffic on the other side.

The vehicles driving in the opposite direction saw that there had been a car accident on this side, pulled over to the roadside, and began calling for help.

Because the taxi had been hit, the body of the car shook violently, and Luo Yan’s head slammed into the seat in front of her.

Immediately afterward, the entire taxi flipped over and crashed at high speed into the roadside barrier.

Although the barrier was sturdy, it was still dented inward by the car. The moment they hit the barrier, Luo Yan completely lost consciousness. Goodbye to this world she had lived in for twenty-three years!

The ambulance would not make it in time…

——

Why am I still conscious? Did I not die?

Or does heaven really exist, and I’m in heaven right now?

It could also be hell!

Wuwuwu…

Huh? Why are there another person’s memories in my head?

Oh my god, is this memory update speed set to five times faster or what?!

After a while, the memories finished loading.

Good heavens! This person actually looked exactly like her sorry self back in high school!

What the hell! Oh my god!

What was going on? Could someone tell her!!

Had she transmigrated, or had her soul transmigrated into someone else’s body?!

Wait, no. This, this, this…

Wasn’t this the plot from that novel she had just finished reading?

The original Luo Yan had already married the female lead from the original book. Not only did the original owner look exactly like Luo Yan, even their names were the same…

The female lead was a great beauty! What a blessing!

If I really transmigrated into this body, then doesn’t that mean the female lead is my wife, my spouse?!

Hahahaha…

Looking at it that way, this seems pretty nice~ Hehe~

She had not even been happy for two minutes. Just as Luo Yan was about to open her eyes, she fainted again. Vaguely, she heard a pleasant voice calling beside her ear: “Husband, Husband, what’s wrong with you…”

——

The original owner came from an ordinary farming family. Her father worked as a laborer for others. Not only was the work exhausting and grueling, the money he received was also very little.

The original owner’s mother did some mending work in exchange for a bit of money, but that also did not amount to much. The family had two mu of land, but after paying taxes every year, the remaining harvest was not even enough to eat.

The reason the original owner was able to marry the female lead, Li Hanxue, was partly because the previous generation had made an agreement long ago. The other reason was Li Yan, the eldest daughter of the Li family. Li Yan was infatuated with the male lead, Wang Hongwen. Based on Luo Yan’s feelings while reading the story, Li Yan had already gone insane and could not control herself. She spread the news that Li Hanxue and Luo Yan had an engagement, preventing her dear younger sister from having any delusions about Wang Hongwen.

This could be considered the beginning of the novel.

Wang Hongwen believed that Li Hanxue would not truly marry Luo Yan. Never mind whether this person was male or female; whether the Luo family could even be found was another matter.

And in fact, that was indeed the case. The elders from the Li and Luo families who had arranged the engagement in the previous generation were already gone. Only the old madam of the Li family remained. To avoid the conflicts within the family, the old woman usually stayed in her own residence and went nowhere.

The original owner’s father knew that the child from the Li family was also a daughter. Their family was poor as well, so he simply never told the original owner about the engagement.

——

Li Yan had already reached the age where she should marry, and several rather decent families had come to propose marriage. Unfortunately! Li Yan only liked Wang Hongwen and looked down on every single one of them!

In order to make Wang Hongwen marry her, Li Yan went around spreading rumors and slandering her third younger sister, Li Hanxue, saying that she behaved improperly. The things she said sounded vivid and detailed, as if they had noses and eyes.

As for herself, she claimed to have excellent literary talent and writing skills, and that her looks were also absolutely first-rate.

She was pretty, sure, but wasn’t she exaggerating a bit too much!

After these rumors reached the Wang family, they naturally thought Li Yan was a very good young lady. And so, the Wang family came to the Li family to propose marriage. The person they wanted was Li Yan!

Having achieved her goal, Li Yan was naturally very happy. Her original plan had been to make Li Hanxue truly behave improperly with someone else. But before this plan could be carried out, the Wang family had already come to propose marriage. One could only say that the earlier rumors had been made far too convincing.

The fact that the Wang family believed everything based on only a few rumors was also extremely speechless-worthy!

Li Hanxue naturally knew that Li Yan was the one who had spread those rumors, but she also had no way to stop her. Grandmother said, “Regardless of whether the rumors are true or false, this marriage arrangement does exist.” Li Hanxue understood what her grandmother meant. She wanted Li Hanxue not to fight with Li Yan and to wait for the person she had been engaged to.

As the eldest sister, Li Yan had indeed reached marriageable age. Li Hanxue was the younger sister, so no matter what, it was not her turn yet.

Her mother’s position in the Li family was not very good. On ordinary days, her mother basically had no say at all.

——

The main trigger that led to Li Hanxue marrying Luo Yan was Li Yan saying in front of the family, “Little Sister already has an engagement, and she has also reached marriageable age. Why don’t we send someone to the Luo family to discuss the marriage and let her marry out together with her elder sister?”

Luo Yan: I really have to find a chance to thank this mother and daughter pair!

Li Hanxue naturally did not take it to heart. Her opinion in this family was not something anyone would listen to anyway. It was not that she was unwilling to marry the child from the Luo family. The key point was that she did not even know where the Luo family lived. At the very least, she herself did not know.

When Li Yan’s mother, Madam Cheng, heard what her own daughter said, she naturally understood the meaning behind it and immediately chimed in, “That sounds wonderful. The elder sister and younger sister marrying out together…”

Seeing this scene, Hanxue had nothing more to say. Just like that, the matter was so easily decided by that mother and daughter.

After Madam Cheng and Li Yan discussed it, they directly sent someone to look for the Luo family.

As Li Yan and her mother wished, news came back very quickly.

After finding out that the Luo family was terribly poor, the mother and daughter were so happy they almost danced with joy, their hearts blooming with delight.

In order to make the Luo family agree to the marriage, Madam Cheng generously paid out of her own pocket for once, giving the Luo family money to take a bride.

——

Mother Luo’s health had always been poor. Right before the people Madam Cheng sent arrived, Mother Luo fell ill again. The original owner was extremely anxious. The family had no money to buy medicine. After asking the neighbors where there was work to do, she ran straight off to work.

The original owner had always worn her hair in a boy’s style, and many people also thought Luo Yan was a boy. Father Luo’s genes were good. Luo Yan was now seventeen and already a little over 1.7 meters tall. In this place, there were not many people who were over 1.7 meters.

After Father Luo learned that his daughter had gone out to work, he did not say anything on the surface. His wife’s illness required a great deal of money before it could be cured!

It was at this exact time that the people Madam Cheng sent arrived with the money for the Luo family to take a bride. When Father Luo saw that there was a lot of silver for the marriage, he was shaken in the end and agreed.

After the original owner heard what her father said, she did not say anything either, tacitly accepting his decision.

After receiving the money, Father Luo told the original owner to hurry to the pharmacy and buy medicine.

——

Three months later, the eldest daughter and third daughter of the Li family married on the same day! Because the money had arrived in time, Luo Yan’s mother’s illness had now mostly recovered.

When the betrothal gifts were delivered, there had been back and forth in between, and the original owner and Li Hanxue had met several times as well.

Luo Yan was tall and thin, and her skin was very fair. When they first met, Li Hanxue could not say she disliked her. She only felt that this person gave her the impression of not liking to speak much. After meeting several times, she had not heard Luo Yan say more than three sentences.

Li Hanxue felt somewhat uncomfortable in her heart, but when she looked at Luo Yan, she did not dislike this person.

Li Hanxue did not actually like Wang Hongwen. She only felt that if she married into his family, her days might become a little easier, and that way, her mother would not have such a hard time at home.

Wang Hongwen was a tiny bit shorter than Luo Yan, and his body was much broader than Luo Yan’s… After thinking about many things, Li Hanxue gave up on continuing to ponder it. Marrying Luo Yan was already a fact.

Perhaps it was not that bad?

Wang Hongwen not only liked Li Hanxue’s beautiful face, he also liked Li Yan’s figure. In Wang Hongwen’s heart, he was determined to have both of them. Since Hanxue was marrying someone else, Wang Hongwen naturally felt terribly upset.

But very soon, Wang Hongwen persuaded himself. After he got married and a couple of years passed, he would think of a way to bring Hanxue to his side. Thinking this, Wang Hongwen stopped feeling dejected and prepared for his wedding with a joyous face.

On the day of the wedding, at the Li family, Grandmother said, “You have suffered.”

Li Hanxue said, “Grandmother, I am not suffering. When I am not here, I hope Grandmother will definitely look after my mother for me.”

Grandmother looked at Li Hanxue with sincerity and reluctance, then nodded and said, “Mm.”

——

On the wedding night, the original owner did not do what husband and wife were supposed to do with Li Hanxue. It would be a lie to say Li Hanxue did not feel upset. The next day, after learning about the Luo family’s situation, she almost could not bear it.

But she also could not return home right after getting married. If she did that, she would have even less of a path to survive…

Early in the morning, the original owner got up and went to work, as if she had never married at all. For more than ten days in a row, she worked for long hours. Luo Yan’s body could not withstand it, and her spirit grew worse and worse.

In the end, she collapsed directly.

When Li Hanxue learned that something had happened to the original owner, she was so anxious that she immediately went to look for her.

——

When she regained consciousness again, she was no longer the original owner. Li Hanxue had also learned that Luo Yan was actually female. Her heart nearly collapsed, and on the other hand, she was also worried that something had really happened to Luo Yan.

After sleeping unconscious for two days, when Luo Yan woke up, she heard the person beside her speaking.

“You’re finally awake,” Li Hanxue said.

Luo Yan looked at Li Hanxue and blinked. After confirming that this person was the original owner’s wife, who was now her own wife!!

Uh! Oh my god! This person was way too good-looking!

Her little pink lips, pointed chin, high nose bridge, wuwuwu… That cool, refreshing fragrance, and even the way she spoke felt gentle and warm, exactly like morning sunlight.

My eyes must be dazed right now… It feels like one glance has lasted ten thousand years…

What should I do? I only looked at her once, and I feel like I already like the person in front of me!

But, but! Oh wow! My wife is too beautiful!

Li Hanxue was still very worried and asked aloud, “Do you feel all right now?” Seeing Luo Yan looking at her so seriously, she felt an indescribable feeling for a moment.

She’s talking to me again. My heart is beating so fast!

Luo Yan steadied her mind and said, “Mm. I feel like there’s nothing wrong now.”

“After you’re sure you’re all right, can we talk?”

“All right.” There was no need for Li Hanxue to say much. They had only been married for a little over ten days, and the original owner only knew how to go out and work every day. So before this, Li Hanxue had not known that Luo Yan was actually female. Because the Luo family was poor and also wanted to avoid Li Yan, after Li Hanxue discussed it with the original owner, they ultimately did not return to her maiden home after the wedding…

Oh my god, there were pits everywhere!

It was already afternoon now. Luo Yan got out of bed and moved her limbs a little. Li Hanxue kept following by her side and taking care of her, probably worried that something would happen to her again.

She had not been moving around for long before Luo Yan felt very uncomfortable. The original owner’s physical condition was seriously too poor! It was probably because she had exhausted herself working. This time, at least, she had gotten a good sleep!

At dinner that night, Father Luo did not notice anything. After Luo Yan and Hanxue finished eating, Luo Yan pulled Li Hanxue back to their room. Li Hanxue sat by the bed but did not know how to begin.

Seeing Li Hanxue like this, Luo Yan felt very helpless. But this wife of hers—she truly liked her. It was also the first time in her life that she had felt her heart move for someone.

All afternoon, this person had been taking care of her. She really was a beautiful and kindhearted girl. “You know.”

Li Hanxue gave a soft, somewhat aggrieved “Mm.”

Luo Yan’s sexual orientation was women. In her own world, she had never met anyone she liked. Her friends had introduced her to several pretty good girls before too, but after meeting them, she simply could not bring herself to like them.

Now, looking at Li Hanxue, Luo Yan could not describe her current state of mind either.

It was longing. She wanted to understand her, wanted to get close to her…

No matter what, the most important thing now was to clearly express her feelings. As for what came after, she could think about it slowly.

There was no use thinking too much right now.

Luo Yan gently walked over to Li Hanxue and crouched down in front of her. Looking at her seriously, she asked, “Then, before this, had you thought about what you wanted to do?”

Hearing Luo Yan’s words, all of Li Hanxue’s grievances surged out at once.

Seeing Li Hanxue suddenly start crying, Luo Yan panicked along with her. She hurriedly stepped forward, pulled her into her arms, and comforted her. “Why are you crying? I didn’t say anything, did I? You’re very angry after finding out I’m a woman, right?”

Only after waiting for Li Hanxue to calm down did Luo Yan continue speaking. “Don’t cry, okay? We’re already married. You are my wife. The things men and women can do, women and women can also do. In the future, I’ll love you properly and cherish you, all right?”

“It’s just that we can’t have children of our own. Deep down, I really like you. That’s why I’ve been avoiding you these past few days. I was afraid you would find out.”

“Now that you already know, I’m not scared because you know. On the contrary, I’m very happy. Hanxue, don’t cry anymore, okay? Just be my, Luo Yan’s, wife like this, all right?”

After hearing what her husband said, Li Hanxue was completely stunned. Women and women—how could they, how could that be allowed!

Also, this person said she liked her? Why had she not noticed that at all? As for avoiding her, that had been absolutely real.

Seeing Li Hanxue’s slightly dazed expression, Luo Yan thought she was extremely adorable. “Go wash up. After washing up, hurry and rest.”

Still dazed, Li Hanxue answered, “Mm.” Right now, she only felt that both her mind and body were exhausted. She did not want to answer so many of her husband’s questions.

After the two of them lay down on the bed, Li Hanxue finally came back to her senses. She lay on her side and looked at her husband without speaking, not knowing what to say.

Luo Yan took in all of Li Hanxue’s expressions. She reached out, wrapped an arm around Hanxue’s waist, and directly pulled Li Hanxue into her arms. “Close your eyes and don’t think about anything. Get a good night’s sleep.”

With the hand that was pillowed beneath Li Hanxue’s head, Luo Yan gently stroked Li Hanxue’s soft hair, comforting her as she fell asleep.

Li Hanxue did not struggle free. On one hand, she was truly very tired. On the other hand, she needed to control her emotions.

Right now, being in her husband’s arms made her feel very steady.

They had been sleeping together these past few days anyway, and she did not feel uncomfortable with it. After an unknown amount of time, Hanxue felt that she really was sleepy, and in a daze, she drifted into dreamland.
