Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 1

Chapter 1: Chapter 1: Transmigrated into a Book

The courtyard of the Siwu Alley was particularly noisy and lively today.

It was mealtime, and several people squatted on the steps with large bowls, watching the spectacle.

"Jiang Cheng, let’s talk inside."

Jiang Cheng, who had her head down, shook it stubbornly, "No! There are too many people."

Lin Chengyuan’s mouth twitched slightly. Did he not know there were many people? He just wanted to avoid them.

Was the person in front of him clueless, or was she trying to use the crowd as an excuse to prevent him from speaking?

Unexpectedly, Jiang Cheng was so cunning!

But given the situation, Lin Chengyuan didn’t feel he was in the wrong, so he decided to speak.

"Jiang Cheng, He Dan and I got our marriage certificate approved by the organization. We are legally married."

"After we met once, I returned to my unit. We didn’t even have a wedding. Although you lived in the Lin Family for three years, you are not my wife."

Jiang Cheng’s legs were pressed together, her back slightly hunched, peering at Lin Chengyuan through her thick bangs.

Around 1.8 meters tall, with a pretty boy appearance, fair skin and red lips.

So this is the male lead from the book!

Indeed, with the face of a pretty boy and the square face of a douchebag.

"Jiang Cheng, do you understand?"

Lin Chengyuan’s eyes showed irritation and impatience. The woman before him, as clueless as a wooden stump, couldn’t read a word, was as outdated as could be. How unfit to be his wife!

"If you didn’t plan to marry me, why did you make me wait for you three years ago? Why didn’t you stop me from moving into the Lin Family back then?"

Jiang Cheng looked down, her hands clutching the faded edges of her clothes, her voice tight and stifled.

Sigh! The hot water scalded her. Her throat felt terribly uncomfortable.

Lin Chengyuan was stumped by her question.

He never thought the usually silent Jiang Cheng would retort. To him, once he explained, Jiang Cheng should immediately agree.

It seemed his marriage had greatly affected her.

Ultimately, knowing she liked him, Lin Chengyuan softened and explained further:

"Jiang Cheng, I only sympathize with you. There’s no other meaning. From any perspective, our marital relationship doesn’t exist. I hope you won’t pester me."

Jiang Cheng pouted with her head down.

Pester, my ass!

She couldn’t wait to get away from this family!

A month ago, after completing simultaneous interpretation for a major summit, Jiang Cheng drove to the supermarket for a big haul, planning to hibernate at home for half a month to recover her burnt-out brain cells.

In the end, she was hit by a truck that ran a red light and ended up inside the novel she was listening to while driving.

A disgusting book she wished she’d never opened.

The male lead Lin Chengyuan, the female lead He Dan.

The entire book was about their love, marriage, and entrepreneurship—a self-proclaimed sweet story.

Jiang Cheng’s role was the feudal throwback wife the Lin Family had taken for Lin Chengyuan.

After they met once, Lin Chengyuan returned urgently to his unit, while Jiang Cheng lived in the Lin Family for three years as his wife.

During these three years, she took care of everyone in the Lin Family, worked tirelessly, doing a man’s job.

Lin Chengyuan never returned during those three years, and when he did, he brought He Dan, already with a marriage certificate, proclaiming marriage freedom.

The disgusting plot began from there, with the whole Lin Family using PUA tactics on Jiang Cheng, making her willingly stay in the Lao Lin Family and continue being their maid.

Lin Chengyuan’s parents shamelessly recognized Jiang Cheng as their goddaughter. When Lin Chengyuan faced obstacles in his career, they sent Jiang Cheng to a sixty-year-old man!

Of course, the book beautified the plot, claiming Jiang Cheng volunteered.

When listening to the book, she thought a hundred "pfft" wouldn’t be enough to express her disgust.

A month ago, the original character succumbed to illness and rain, passed quietly from a fever.

If the car she was driving during the accident hadn’t turned into her space, and if the car hadn’t contained fever-reducing medicine, she might’ve burned to death as soon as she arrived.

Jiang Cheng, still standing with her head down in the middle of the courtyard, looked weak and old, with long hair covering half her face.

Clothes, washed to the point of white with patches, made Lin Chengyuan look at her with disdain.

How could a woman be so slovenly, she didn’t even compare to He Dan’s pinky.

Thinking this, Lin Chengyuan turned to look at He Dan beside him, who had a gentle smile and had been silent, her eyes full of trust in him.

They exchanged a smile, sweet and beautiful.

In contrast, Lin Chengyuan felt even more disgusted with the Jiang Cheng before him.

Not speaking? Playing the victim? Trying to elicit sympathy? What a low-class tactic.

"I’m not trying to pester you. I just want to ask—"

Jiang Cheng, who had been silent, suddenly raised her head, gathering courage to ask, "So what do these three years count for? Am I just unlucky?"
