Chapter 1: Transmigrated as a bankrupt rich second generation girl.

On the side of the busy road, Jiang Baiyun was standing in front of the ATM and staring at the numbers on the screen, not daring to blink. She was afraid that this was just a dream and she would go back to reality as soon as she closed her eyes.

        On the screen of the ATM, a number was quietly displayed.

       “Eight million… Eight million!” Jiang Baiyun anxiously bit her fingernail, forcing herself to calm down—No, what if she counted it wrong? Hurry up and count again!

  Jiang Baiyun swallowed hard and tried to stand up straight. Looking at the ATM’s slightly dimmed screen, Jiang Baiyun stretched out her finger and once again began to slowly poke at the numbers displayed.

  One… ten… one hundred… one thousand… ten thousand… one hundred thousand! million!

  Eight million!

  Eight million! !

  Jiang Baiyun’s mind was filled with the number of eight million. These few simple words “$8 million!” seemed to run back and forth in her head, turning her brain to mush. Jiang Baiyun’s hands were shaking with excitement. She took two deep breaths, managed to calm herself down a little, and then quickly pulled out the bank card.

  ——Go to another ATM.

  If this was a mistake, she would smash the machine right then! Jiang Baiyun stared at the screen of the other ATM, grinding her teeth viciously.

  Fortunately, the previous ATM didn’t have a problem and the screen still displayed 8 million .

  Jiang Baiyun didn’t even know how she pulled out the card. When she had been about to climb down the steps of the bank, she almost tripped and fell. Fortunately, a passer-by kindly helped her. Giddy with joy, Jiang Baiyun dizzily flashed him a goofy smile: “You’re welcome!”

  Passer-by: …

  After rushing back home into the villa, Jiang Baiyun closed the door and felt her knees giving in as she sat paralyzed on the ground. She gasped for two breaths, and then hurriedly lifted the bank card she had been clutching in her hand and kissed it hard twice.

  … eight million, a bank card worth eight million!

  Jiang Baiyun screamed inwardly as she hugged her bank card -this kind of feeling is like drinking ice in summer! Nibbling on roasted sweet potatoes in winter!

  God knew that Jiang Baiyun had been getting ready to get a job interview in her original world, but now she had an 8 million bank card… What work! She would totally live the life of a rice weevil!

  From now on, she could add two eggs to her fruit pancake! She could also buy a large portion of braised chicken, and she could ask the boss to add another 10 yuan of potatoes!

  God knew that Jiang Baiyun was very upset when she first found out that she had transmigrated into a novel.

  That night, she happened to be at home in her rented house and she was holding her phone scrolling through a variety of novels. She eventually clicked on an old romance novel called << I‘ve been in love with you for a million years >>.

  As she read it, she almost bloody vomited! It’s fine for it to be a typical dog blood Mary Sue novel, but the most important thing was that the villainess inside had exactly the same name as her!

  After reading the part about this rich second-generation villainess going bankrupt and then committing suicide by taking pills, Jiang Baiyun put down her phone moodily and went to sleep. To her, suicide is a silly outcome. Although she was broke, but she wasn’t in debt, so what’s the point of killing herself?

  It seems like life liked to play with thorny guesses. Haven’t you ever heard that a good death is better than a bad life?

  Jiang Baiyun, of course, had a good night’s sleep. However, as soon as she next opened her eyes, she noticed that something was wrong.

  Her room suddenly became spacious, and instead of the hard wooden bed, she was lying on a big soft bed. A comfortable sense of sinking dutifully reminded Jiang Baiyun that she was not in that small, dark rental house.

  Jiang Baiyun instantly got out of bed, turned on the light and sat in front of the mirror. A girl with a slightly coquettish-looking appearance was reflected in the mirror. The girl’s appearance was somewhat similar to her original one, but it was much more delicate than her. Her skin was fair and tender, her eyes were big and bright, her pointy chin was sharp and her nose was straight.

  Jiang Baiyun covered her mouth in shock, suddenly having a bad premonition.

  She turned her head to the bedside table, and saw a small medicine bottle with a pile of pills scattered next to it. Jiang Baiyun hurriedly flung herself at the bedside table, and picked up the medicine bottle, only to see the big characters-Sleeping Pills written on it.

  Jiang Baiyun felt her vision going dark.

  She likely transmigrated as that female cannon fodder Jiang Baiyun in the << I‘ve been in love with you for a million years >>, and the timing just happened to be after the Jiang family had gone bankrupt and Jiang Baiyun was about to commit suicide.

  This timing was a bit awkward. The plots she knew had all come to an end, and she only roughly knew the generality of what would happen next.

  Shouldn’t she be thankful, anyhow Jiang Baiyun hadn’t had time to swallow all the pills… Otherwise, she would have had to go to the hospital alone in the middle of the night to have a gastric lavage.

  Jiang Baiyun quickly threw the sleeping pills into the trash can. Then she fished out the phone from the messy bed and began to look through any news records that could prove her identity.

  Looking at the news reports on the mobile phone, Jiang Baiyun’s heart couldn’t help sinking-she had indeed transmigrated as the bankrupt rich second-generation Jiang Baiyun and the Jiang family had already completely hit rock bottom. The Jiang couple had fled abroad with their son, while Jiang Baiyun had been left as an abandoned pawn in China.

  The magnified photo of the heavy makeup laden face on the screen of the phone was the same as that of Jiang Baiyun’s now.

  Jiang Baiyun looked at the harsh scolding comments on the news report and silently pressed the lock button. Facing the darkened phone screen, she sighed softly-her parents had been dead in her previous life, now that she had crossed over, the parents were still alive, but it wasn’t any different than being dead.

  ”Do the both of us count as being in the same boat?” Jiang Baiyun murmured to herself, “But I can’t compare to you, I have never been a rich second generation.” Even if she was broke now, she once enjoyed a luxurious life ah. Compared to your average person, Jiang Baiyun had been lucky.

  Forget it, it doesn’t matter. Jiang Baiyun raised her hand and patted her cheek to clear her head. She took a deep breath and looked around—she had to figure out how to continue living.

  After all, she was broke now.

  So, after a while of rummaging through the room, Jiang Baiyun sat on the carpet with her hair a mess. In front of her, there were Jiang Baiyun’s ID card and bank card, as well as a real estate certificate and a land certificate, oh yeah, and a car key.

  These are the most valuable assets Jiang Baiyun could find.

  Let’s not talk about the real estate certificate and land certificate for it must belong to this villa. This bank card…could it be that there is still money in it?

  So Jiang Baiyun randomly went to the nearest bank during the daytime to see how much money was still in the card.

  Originally, she only thought that there would be a two or three thousand, which would allow her to temporarily not worry about starving. As a result, an additional 8 million was being displayed in front of her eyes. It felt like a fat pie had suddenly fallen from the sky, hitting Jiang Baiyun so hard that she almost fainted!

  Money, money, money is a good thing!

  Jiang Baiyun giggled happily, she could almost see her bright future now.

  Once she reached home, Jiang Baiyun ran upstairs excitedly, panting heavily, she gasped and slumped down on her bed, and then began to roll around excitedly. No words could describe Jiang Baiyun’s current mood. Eight million! She had never seen such a huge sum of money. With such an amount of money, her mortgage back in the real world could be paid off!

  At the thought of the house in the real world, Jiang Baiyun couldn’t help sighing again—what a pity.

  Wait, speaking of the house…

  Jiang Baiyun faced the ceiling and blinked, then sat up again and looked around.

  ——The villa was quite nice, big and stylish, but it would be a waste for her to live here alone. Besides, water and electricity bills would be very expensive, not to mention how tiring the cleaning would be.

  Jiang Baiyun thoughtfully stroked her chin, eyes bright—or should she rent it…?

  ——

  At this time, at the Haochen Building in City A, Ji Chen, the youngest CEO in the history of Haochen Company, was sitting in his office, with spread out documents in front of him and the sound of his assistant’s reporting in his ears.

  Assistant Xu glanced at the news on the tablet, hesitated for a moment, and finally said in a low voice: “Mr. Ji, the news of the Jiang family… it has all been reported on the news.”

  Ji Chen’s hand flipping through the documents paused for a moment, but his face remained expressionless: “Know.”

  Assistant Xu picked out some important information and reported to Ji Chen: “The Jiang family couple have fled with Jiang Hongshu abroad, and the Jiang family company has been acquired by the Chu family. As for Miss Jiang Baiyun… there is no news yet.”

  ”Oh.” Ji Chen sneered, tossing the pen in his hand aside as he stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling glass window. Looking at the bustling streets outside, Ji Chen said to Assistant Xu: “This is the law of the jungle.  Jiang family is naught a small piece of rock that was washed away by the flood.”

  ”All of us are drifting with the flow inside,” Ji Chen said, “Chu Yunhan is like this, and my ex-fiancée Jiang Baiyun… is also the same.”

  ”You don’t have to report to me about the Jiang family’s matters anymore.” Finally, Ji Chen hammered out, “There is no value.”

  Assistant Xu bowed his head respectfully.

  ——

  A few days later,after getting off work, Ji Chen sat in the back seat of the car, his hands habitually flipping through the acquisitions of this time. Haochen is now a behemoth in the industry, and the degree of expansion is increasing every year, the fields involved touching all walks of life. As the CEO of Haochen, Ji Chen’s life revolved around dealing with professional duties every day besides eating and sleeping.

  Assistant Xu was sometimes curious, does Mr. Ji even have a private life? In his impression, Ji Chen’s life trajectory had always been fixed, as though he’s a precision machine, always working tirelessly.

  ”This plan won’t work,” Ji Chen said suddenly, “Who did it?”

  Just when Assistant Xu was about to reply, he heard Ji Chen say again: “No matter who did it, let him take it back and redo it.” After speaking, Ji Chen threw the file into Assistant Xu’s arms who was sitting in the front seat.

  Assistant Xu: ……

  President Ji is always so resolute.

  Just when Ji Chen was about to get the second document, he unconsciously raised his head and glanced out the car window.

  He saw a familiar figure walking down the street.

  Ji Chen frowned, he closed the documents in his hand and watched the person slowly approach from a distance. Just when the person was about to walk over, Ji Chen suddenly said to the driver: “Drive.”

  The driver quickly started the car, and asked as he drove forward: “Mr. Ji, where are we going?”

  ”Leave here first. Then find a roadside close to the company and stop.” Ji Chen lowered his head again.

  Jiang Baiyun didn’t even notice that the luxury car parked on the side of the road drove away because of her. She walked straight to a general supermarket behind the car-she had just moved, and the refrigerator was empty, so she had to restock it quickly.

  When Jiang Baiyun came out, her hands were full of stuff and because he couldn’t properly hold everything,, she placed the big freshly killed fish that she just bought into her handbag. Jiang Baiyun slapped the strap on her shoulder in satisfaction.

  The spicy hotpot restaurant seems to be nearby, right?

  -

  Ji Chen waited until that figure was completely out of his sight before his tightly furrowed brow slightly loosened. He exhaled and lowered his head to continue signing the document in his hand.

  When he looked up after signing, he found that the figure just now had actually followed him again!

  It’s just that this time was different from before,  she was carrying a lot of things in large bags.

  Ji Chen frowned tightly as he stared at the figure and watched her move slowly. After a while, Ji Chen suddenly chuckled. He took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose and ordered Assistant Xu: “Call Jiang Baiyun over.”

  Jiang Baiyun had just come out of the restaurant, holding a bowl of spicy hotpot soup worth forty yuan in her hand.

  I bought two portions of luncheon meat to add it to soup today and two portions of beef. I am really rich. Jiang Baiyun thought happily, striding on her way home. Suddenly someone blocked the road in front of her.

  Assistant Xu, who stopped Jiang Baiyun, gave a professional smile to her, his eyes glancing at the various things in her hand Jiang, and finally landing on the bowl of spicy hotpot.

  Has Miss Jiang of the Jiang family fallen to the point where she needs to shop for groceries and cook? And she would eat this kind of unhealthy junk food… She seems to be really out of money.

  Despite this thought in his heart, Assistant Xu’s attitude was still very formal: “Miss Jiang, someone wants to see you, please follow me.”

  Jiang Baiyun was first stunned for a moment, and then she instantly became wary. She subconsciously took a step back and glared vigilantly at Assistant Xu in front of her,”I don’t owe you money, right?”

  Assistant Xu also froze for a moment, and then felt some sympathy for Jiang Baiyun in his heart. How arrogant had Miss Jiang been? Today, her first reaction after meeting an acquaintance was to ask them if she had owed them money.

  ”Miss Jiang is surely joking,” Assistant Xu was a very professional person, and didn’t reveal any trace of his inner emotions on his face. “That person is waiting for you in the car.”

  Jiang Baiyun looked at him doubtfully, and hesitated for a while before finally following Assistant Xu to a black car-Huh? Isn’t this the luxury car in front of the supermarket just now?

  She watched Assistant Xu nod to the rear window that was half lowered, and then sit back in the front seat. There was a man sitting in the car, clad in a suit and leather shoes, with a very handsome appearance, expression indifferent. When he noticed Jiang Baiyun approaching the car, he only glanced at her faintly.

  Jiang Baiyun’s breath was caught in her throat-this man is too handsome…

  But before she could fully admire the handsome guy, Jiang Baiyun was baffled by the man’s next words.

  Ji Chen turned his head and narrowed his eyes at Jiang Baiyun: “I know you want to find me, but you could have done so without being so roundabout.”

  Jiang Baiyun:? ? ?

  She was a little uncertain whether she knew this man or not, so she suppressed the uncomfortable feeling in her heart, and asked cautiously: “…Sorry, I may not understand.”

  Still playing dumb. Ji Chen looked up and down Jiang Baiyun-T-shirt, jeans and white shoes, oh, it seems that this woman really wronged herself in order to come to perform her bitter act in front of him, she even forsake those high-end dresses she used to wear.

  Thinking so in his heart, Ji Chen’s eyes fell on the bag that Jiang Baiyun was carrying. He was startled for a moment, and his eyes changed slightly.

  That bag was the gift he had given to Jiang Baiyun when he first met her. It was a limited edition LV bag, and only a total of twenty had been released worldwide.

  … Now there was a fish head sticking out of the bag. The fish has its eyes wide open and stared at Ji Chen. He that there was a strange light shining in those eyes… As though mocking him.
