Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

"dong dong dong~"

"Madam, breakfast is ready!"

The knocking on the door, accompanied by voices, drifted into the room.

In the spacious, bright, and luxuriously decorated room, the person lying on the bed opened their eyes upon hearing the sound.

"I understand!" she said, raising her voice slightly towards the door.

As the sound faded, the sound of footsteps gradually receding from the corridor outside. In order not to waste any time, Zhong Ning went straight into the space.

"Xiao Qi, transfer your memories."

“Okay, host.” Xiao Qi nodded from the side.

Zhong Ning lay on the sofa, closed her eyes, and felt the memories flooding into her mind.

This world is also a fictional world derived from a novel.

The novel mainly revolves around City S. The story revolves around the male protagonist, Gu Chen, the young master of the wealthy Gu family, who enters the entertainment industry under an assumed name and becomes a movie star. He meets the female protagonist, Su Yueke, who is an orphan, and the two fall in love over time.

The plot is very cliché: the female lead, Su Yue, is drugged and given to an investor. She escapes and accidentally enters the male lead's room, where the two begin to interact.

Then the male lead starts to pay attention to the female lead and unconsciously solves her problems. After a series of tests by the female and male supporting characters, their relationship progresses, and the two eventually have a happy ending.

The original owner of Zhong Ning's body this time was Xu Wan, the daughter of the wealthy Xu family, which could only be considered an upper-middle class wealthy family in S City.

The original owner's parents were married through an arranged marriage, and their relationship could only be described as respectful to each other. She also had an older brother, Xu Yan.

The family company was inherited by the original owner's older brother. Her parents' relationship was so-so. As the original owner's only daughter, she was easily neglected, so she went into the entertainment industry under an assumed name.

Wealthy families prioritize profit, and the original owner was not surprised. She was married into the Shen family, one of the three most prestigious families in the upper echelons of society, and the eldest son of the Shen family, Shen Yihan.

The three most prestigious families in S City are the Shen family, the Gu family, and the Chu family.

The person in charge of the Shen family is Shen Yihan, whom the original owner married. Logically speaking, the original owner's family could only be considered upper-middle class, so she shouldn't have had any contact with him.

As for why they got married, it was mainly because Shen Yihan's grandmother and Xu Anran's grandmother were old acquaintances.

Shen Yihan is usually a workaholic, so he naturally has no time or interest in meeting women. His grandmother then arranged for him to marry Xu Wan.

The two had no feelings for each other. Shen Yihan was arranged by his grandmother and was only informed of his marriage on the day of the wedding.

In order to avoid embarrassing his grandmother and everyone else, he temporarily accepted the situation, thinking he would find an opportunity to negotiate with the original owner later.

The original owner felt that a marriage alliance was inevitable sooner or later, so it didn't matter who she married.

After their marriage, the two slept in separate rooms, and Shen Yihan rarely even returned to their home, as he had other places to stay.

He probably came back because his grandmother urged him to. Seeing that Shen Yihan didn't seem to want to get close to him, the original owner also had no intention of changing the status quo for the time being.

The two have only been married for a week, and it was just now that the Shen family's servants came to call the original owner for breakfast.

This villa was a gift from Shen Yihan's grandmother to the two of them. The original owner usually lived here, and there were maids who cooked and cleaned for them.

Xu Wan opened her eyes, went to the space to wash up, and asked Xiao Qi, "Are there any side quests in this world?"

"For some hosts, the main storyline is the entertainment industry, and the secondary mission is to become a national movie queen."

After she finished speaking, Xu Wan saw a progress bar that read "5% completion rate for Best Actress." This was probably because the original owner had already entered the entertainment industry and had some fame.

Although the original owner had been in the entertainment industry for two years, her acting skills were mediocre, and she didn't rely on them to make money, so she didn't specifically look for resources. In the past two years, she had remained lukewarm and only had two million fans.

"The task is considered complete only when the progress bar is full?"

"Yes, host, didn't you want to go into the entertainment industry before? Now you have the chance," Xiao Qi said.

Xu Wan wiped the water droplets from her face and said, "Yes, I have something to do."

"Keep it up, host!" Xiao Qi cheered her on.

Xu Wan nodded, looking at herself in the mirror. She had a cool and aloof beauty, and looked somewhat distant.

She had delicate features, a high nose bridge, and slightly pursed rosy lips. She was tall and slender with a willow-like waist.

According to her memory, the original owner had a stunning smile. Xu Mian smiled at herself in the mirror and indeed she was beautiful, with a beauty like melting snow.

After washing up, Xu Mian left the space. Since she had nothing to do today, she went downstairs in her pajamas.

When I got downstairs, I saw Shen Yihan sitting at the dining table. He hadn't gone to the company yet today. No wonder the maid came to wake me up.

Shen Yihan was wearing a black shirt with the sleeves rolled up to reveal a section of his arm, on which he wore an expensive watch.

His profile revealed striking features, sharp angles, and a cold, aloof demeanor, exuding an aura that kept strangers at bay.

Both the original owner and he were the type of people who didn't talk much, and they usually didn't exchange more than a few words.

She looked around and suddenly met Shen Yihan's gaze.

His eyes were deep and unfathomable; he glanced at her briefly before looking away.

Xu Mian walked over without changing her expression and sat down opposite him.

"You didn't go to the company today?" Xu Wan picked up her chopsticks, took a piece of breakfast from the table, and asked casually.

Her natural demeanor and the casual words she uttered.

Shen Yihan looked up at her in surprise before slowly saying, "Let's go later today."

The two had been married for a week. The original owner rarely saw Shen Yihan, and when they did meet, she would never ask him anything.

Xu Wan nodded casually, simply asking a question without caring whether he was going or not.

"Xiao Qi, you suddenly arranged a married identity for me, and the two of us aren't even familiar with each other. It's really something else."

“Host, since the original owner and Shen Yihan had no feelings for each other anyway, you can try getting married first and then falling in love,” Xiao Qi said with a smile.

Xu Wan shook her head and said, "Let's see. I'm more interested in the mission right now."

"Okay, host, you decide what to do."

The two ate their breakfast in silence, and no one spoke for a while.

Just as Xu Wan was thinking about what to do today, a voice came from across the room.

"Shall we talk later?" Shen Yihan's cold, magnetic voice rang out.

Xu Wan snapped out of her reverie, thought about the two of them, and nodded: "Okay."

So, after dinner, Shen Yihan went to the study, and Xu Mian went back to her room to change her clothes before going to find him.

dong dong dong~

Xu Wan stood at the door of the study and knocked. As soon as she knocked, Shen Yihan's voice came from inside: "Come in!"

Upon hearing this, she opened the door and went inside, where she saw Shen Yihan sitting on the sofa looking at her: "Come and sit down."

Xu Mian was carried over and sat down on the sofa next to her.

She began, "What do you want to say?"

Shen Yihan looked at the person opposite him. This was the first time the two of them had sat down to talk, and only then did he get a good look at her.

She was dressed in a simple and comfortable suit, and was very beautiful. She didn't feel uncomfortable at all in front of him and seemed relaxed.
