Transmigrated as the Top-Tier Alpha's Secretly Married Ex-Wife - Chapter 60
Chapter 60
“Sister, just saying, you’ve been in the hospital this whole time, you haven’t gone anywhere. Where are you returning to?”
Xiao Li was genuinely baffled. Honestly, ever since his sister had the car accident, she’s become… a bit cracked?
She wasn’t quite the Sister Tuantuan he knew before.
Su Tuantuan giggled foolishly, gripping the remote control. “Let me see my old TV dramas! Change the channel for me, hurry up.”
Xiao Li “Oh’d,” gave her a strange look, changed the channel for her, and then quietly slipped out to make a phone call.
Su Tuantuan leaned back comfortably against the pillow, squinting. She was finally back.
Finally back!
She, Su Tuantuan, a third-rate actress, had accidentally transmigrated into a novel world. In that novel world, there were six genders, which sounded a bit complicated, but it meant girls there could openly date other girls.
She was often on the verge of a nervous breakdown due to issues like bathroom signs.
She was extremely uncomfortable in the novel’s world. More importantly, it was an unfinished novel whose plot ended after Su Tuantuan and Mo Xian spent a night together, with no further development. So, she began various crazy tests—
It was a novel world, after all. She couldn’t live there forever, could she?
To her surprise, her first attempt led to her demise, but she didn’t return.
The first time she transmigrated, it was right after the original Su Tuantuan and the top celebrity Mo Xian spent a night together. The original plot also ended there, incomplete.
She thought the original owner was quite foolish to have even filmed a video to prove her innocence. If she liked her, she should have gone for it boldly.
So, she deleted all the evidence, deliberately took intimate photos, and demanded that Mo Xian marry her secretly.
At the time, she thought she had the heroine’s script.
Unexpectedly, this secret marriage ran into trouble.
Mo Xian ignored her and was very resistant.
The moment she realized she had the script of the villainess second female lead was half a year into the secret marriage when Mo Xian asked her for a divorce because Mo Xian had found her true love—
Qiao Yanran, also working in the entertainment industry.
She figured she might as well go all the way and be a complete villainess. However, this path led to a miserable end.
She would forever remember how she died.
The second time she opened her eyes, she was back at the night she spent with the top celebrity Mo Xian. This time, she learned her lesson. She didn’t delete the evidence and didn’t take overly suggestive photos, but the marriage still had to happen.
Because she deeply realized that Mo Xian was the heroine of this world. To survive, regardless of whether she could return to the real world, she had to cling tightly to the heroine’s thigh.
So, she messaged Mo Xian daily, groveling and flattering.
It wasn’t that she liked Mo Xian that much—
Her life was on the line. Getting back to the real world was the most important thing. How could she waste time on romance?
As time passed, just as the plot seemed about to repeat the previous lifetime, this time, she successfully returned.
She returned with a healthy body, free from heroines and villains, safe and sound.
Not only did she have a unique experience, but she also possessed a large fortune.
Su Tuantuan checked the balance of her bank cards for the 206th time. “Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands… Hahahahaha…”
She laughed wildly, hugging her phone. “Thank you, sister. I didn’t earn this much money working in the entertainment industry for so long. You helped me earn a billion in those few years! Hahahahaha…”
Perhaps her laughter was too loud and disturbed the assistant outside.
The assistant cautiously peeped through the window, holding his phone. “Yes, I don’t know if she’s lost her mind. She’s talking one moment and laughing the next. It looks kind of creepy. I don’t know what’s wrong? She wasn’t this manic before.”
He quickly nodded, listening to whatever the person on the other end was saying. “Then I’ll ask the doctor to give her a thorough check-up. If there are any issues, I’ll report them to Brother Wu immediately.”
The assistant hung up, pushed open the door, and felt a gust of wind hit him. Examination reports and scraps of paper were flying through the air, aimed right at him.
Several hit him in the face.
He stumbled backward.
“I’m going to travel the world! I’m going to drive a supercar! I’m going to eat all the delicacies in the world! I’m going to keep a—”
The assistant lunged forward through the raining paper, covering her mouth. “Sister Tuantuan, you can’t say things like that! There might be reporters outside!”
Su Tuantuan giggled foolishly, looking at the nervous assistant. She pinched the assistant’s cheek. “Tsk tsk, Xiao Lili, don’t panic. Your sister is upright and fears no shadow. From now on…”
She threw the remaining reports in the air, laughing. “I’m going to live my own life! I’m going to be a willful rich lady!”
Xiao Li wiped the sweat from his forehead and resignedly started picking up the papers on the floor.
She could be her rich lady, and he could be her wage slave, right?
A-City, Luoningyacheng Residential Area.
Su Tuantuan stepped out of the bathroom after a shower, wearing pajamas. Her hair was wrapped in a towel, and her skin was smooth and moisturized from her facial care routine.
Mo Xian poured her a glass of hot milk. “You’re tired today. Drink this and get some rest early.”
Su Tuantuan leaned lazily on the sofa, turned on the TV, and randomly selected a variety show.
“Thank you.”
She took the milk and sipped it slowly.
She was indeed sleepy. Recently, or rather, for the past year, she had been in a state of high-intensity work. Even before transmigrating, she was the same in the real world.
She always felt that only acting made her feel fulfilled.
It was a different feeling.
Mo Xian sat beside her. Su Tuantuan leaned her head on Mo Xian’s shoulder and slowly finished the milk. Before the variety show ended, her eyes began to close.
She fell asleep on Mo Xian’s shoulder.
Su Tuantuan had a dream.
In the dream, she was the original Su Tuantuan, who grew up living with her grandmother.
When she was fifteen, she met a woman who brightened her youth.
That woman later became a national idol, and she defied her grandmother’s wishes to study acting.
She wasn’t the most talented, often ranking at the bottom of her class in school.
Her friend Bai Xue often helped her. Her acting finally seemed decent, but she still couldn’t get good resources.
Later, she found out Bai Xue was ordered by her manager to frame Mo Xian.
She chose to betray her friend to save the girl she met at fifteen.
She hadn’t received much warmth, only carefully treasuring what she did receive.
Bai Xue was good to her, and she repaid her doubly, but she had let her down in this matter.
The scenes in the dream quickly shifted back to the real-world Su Tuantuan. Her parents divorced. She continuously improved her acting skills, taking no shortcuts, relying on hard work and clumsy practice.
Later, things finally began to look up.
She went from being a nobody to becoming a Movie Queen.
Everyone cheered for her, and everyone was proud of her.
In that world, she also fantasized about love, but no one truly looked at her.
She was lonely, but also free.
When Su Tuantuan woke up, she found tears had soaked her pillow.
She sat up, realizing she had fallen asleep on the bed.
Her long hair was soft and smooth, falling down around her. A small nightlight was on in the room. Su Tuantuan felt momentarily lost.
She couldn’t tell if she was in a dream or reality.
She couldn’t tell if she was in the novel or her original world.
She walked out of the room barefoot and turned on a wall lamp.
The room was the same as when she went to sleep. The bird-of-paradise plant she had bought for the balcony was partly withered.
Someone was sleeping on the sofa, wrapped in a blanket, a dark lump. A corner of the blanket trailed on the floor. Su Tuantuan walked over and slowly squatted in front of the sofa.
Like a quiet cat.
Perhaps alerted, the soundly sleeping Mo Xian opened her eyes. Seeing Su Tuantuan with disheveled hair and what looked like tear stains on her face, she sat up and instinctively reached out to touch her cheek. “Tuantuan?”
Su Tuantuan came back to herself and rubbed her cheek against Mo Xian’s palm.
Mo Xian sighed in relief and rubbed her head. “What’s wrong?”
Mo Xian tried to turn on the main light in the living room, but Su Tuantuan grabbed her hand.
The faint light was just enough to hide her distress. Her eyelashes fluttered, and she whispered, “I miss home.”
Tears welled up again. She wanted to cry out. “I miss my grandma. I want to go home. I want to go home.”
Mo Xian thought she had been startled by something. She pulled her into a tight embrace. “I’ll take you home to see Grandma as soon as it’s light. Do you know where Grandma’s grave is? Do you still remember?”
Su Tuantuan buried her face in Mo Xian’s shoulder, sobbing uncontrollably and biting her lip as she muffled her reply. The crying wouldn’t stop.
“I don’t remember. I’m a very stupid, very stupid person. I don’t remember anything. I don’t even remember who I am… Who am I…”
Which Su Tuantuan was she?
Mo Xian held her, gently patting her back to comfort her.
Maybe it wouldn’t help at all.
But at least, it would let her know that no matter what, she was right there with her.
Su Tuantuan cried for a very long time.
Mo Xian held her, and the two fell asleep in each other’s arms on the sofa.
The heating in the house was strong and not cold at all. Su Tuantuan snuggled in her embrace, her hand resting on Mo Xian’s waist, her cheek against her chest.
Mo Xian couldn’t sleep easily, but she didn’t want to startle Su Tuantuan again. She occasionally stroked the hair of the person in her arms. Amidst the faint scent of her hair, Mo Xian eventually drifted off to sleep.
When Su Tuantuan woke up again, Mo Xian had already asked Ah Huai to bring over her luggage and had packed a suitcase for Su Tuantuan.
She had cried so hard last night that her eyes were a bit swollen.
She walked barefoot to Mo Xian, who was folding clothes and only then realized she was awake. “I ordered takeout. Want to eat together after you freshen up?”
Su Tuantuan squatted down and hugged her from behind, rubbing her head against Mo Xian’s body. Mo Xian turned and hugged her back. “We’ll go home together and see Grandma.”
Su Tuantuan hummed. “Mo Xian.”
Held in Mo Xian’s arms, she looked up at Mo Xian. “I don’t know why, but it feels like I’ve lost a piece of something in my heart. It makes me feel very, very sad. I’m trying hard to find it, trying to make it normal again, but it’s so empty there…”
She rubbed against Mo Xian again, wiping away her tears. “I don’t know why, but my heart hurts a little.”
