Summary
Qiao Mei found herself transmigrated into a novel as a supporting character with the same name but lacking any presence. In this story, her character was a country bumpkin who struggled with obesity and couldn’t find a suitor. According to the original script, Qiao Mei was a spoiled girl, raised by her grandfather. However, their relatives were all cruel and malicious individuals, eagerly awaiting the opportunity to claim her grandfather’s assets after his demise. Aware of this, her grandfather’s dying wish was to marry Qiao Mei off, even if it meant sacrificing and betraying Xia Zhe, the grandson of his good friend. Grandfather planned to get Xia Zhe drunk and then force Qiao Mei, who weighed over two hundred pounds, to be with him. The next day, he would catch them together and compel Xia Zhe to marry Qiao Mei. Little did they know that this event would mark the beginning of Qiao Mei’s unfortunate life.
Furthermore, in the original story, Qiao Mei ended up possessing Xia Zhe’s mysterious jade. However, due to her own naivety, her cousin’s sister tricked her into giving away the jade, resulting in her cousin’s family becoming wealthy. When Qiao Mei transmigrated into this world, she found herself in an uncomfortable situation, having just engaged in intimate activities with a man whom she had made drunk. The next morning, as her grandfather’s team arrived at the door, Qiao Mei panicked. She didn’t want to follow the original path and marry a man who didn’t love her. So, she lied and sent her grandfather away. She also pushed the man out and forced herself to confront her reflection in the mirror—a tanned and chubby figure that brought her to tears, feeling ugly and unattractive.
With a body resembling that of a sumo wrestler, even finding clothes her size proved challenging. Her face appeared scorched, resembling a pizza. Determined to turn her life around, Qiao Mei devised a plan. The first step was to lose weight. The second step was to clean up her messy room. Although her current residence boasted a large courtyard, it was far from organized. The third step was to protect the jade from her greedy cousin. However, Qiao Mei couldn’t help but wonder why Xia Zhe, the tall and handsome man who was supposed to despise her according to the original story, was becoming increasingly kind and caring towards her.
