Transmigrated into a Parvenu’s Ex-wife in the ‘90s 穿成暴发户的前妻
She woke up from her sleep to the divorce papers that the original owner’s husband tossed at her.
Shu Yan picked up the document and took a look. She gets the house and the savings, but not the car.
Oh! And her son and daughter.
She had been a single woman in her 30’s in her previous life, and now she’s a mother?
How exciting is that?
She searched her memories. Two million dollars in savings. How much is two million dollars in the 90s?
What’s a husband? The other woman can have him. I’m taking the monies and my instant son and daughter to go and enjoy ourselves!

Writing is overall on the simple side but the story is compelling and MY GOD this is probably the slowest slow-burn I have ever read and it has made me go absolutely insane, in a good way of course cuz this slow progress has made me realize I really love when the romance takes its time to build up.
The couple got me absolutely giddy just being in the same room and saying one sentence to each other, which is like whoa I'm so invested in them and I could just imagine how cute they'd be in the future. Overall the characters are mature and grow into themselves before diving into any relationship which I appreciate so much and I highly recommend it.

BEWARE of SPOILER
Another slice of life story about a transmigrator with two instant kids who decided to live as a single mom and started her own business. The setting however was in the early '90s when China was moving on to the One Country, Two Systems policy after Hong Kong and Macao were handed over back to them. It's also the era when China decided to practice the China Western development. I somehow was more invested in the history of China rather than the plot itself.

4.5 stars
Finally an actually independent (not sassy or antisocial) female protagonist with no threats of sexual assault or other traumatic experiences. I should give this 5 stars just for that.
This is a story about a transmigrated person taking over the body of a victim, avoiding all the stupid tropes, and focusing on taking care of herself and her children far far away from all the drama. This protagonist is kind and generous but not excessively. She also acts decisively against those who attempt to disrupt her peaceful life. The romance happens much farther into the story and doesn’t change who she is (it’s not a typical domineering (rapist) ML). They are both independent people with separate established lives.
The synopsis makes this novel appear comedic, it’s not. This is a story about a woman slowly building her business while raising her children and infrequently face slapping. The author tries to keep things realistic to some extent. The translation is unedited and inconsistent, but reasonably well done even considering the many errors.
This isn’t the most exciting novel. I wouldn’t recommend this unless you’re specifically interested in something like this. The authors intention for this novel appears to be subverting all of those dramatic, tragic, and face slapping subplots/tropes. I enjoyed this quite a bit, but the pacing is very slow and can be boring at times.

I love this book. It's very relaxing slice of life that has plenty of little bits of drama. Very satisfying to watch as the heroine grows her business and takes care of her family.

It’s an entertaining transmigration story. There are good blessings for good people and timely karma for the selfish and wicked. Can’t ask for much more!

El libro habla sobre superación personal. Cuando tienes todo en contra si te esfuerzas puedes lograr cambiar tus circunstancias.
El libro cuenta la historia Shu Yan. Madre de 2 hijos que viven con sus suegros y un esposo que tiene una amante fuera de casa y; su cuerpo y piel están descuidados. Es chaparrita, gordita y tiene manchas en la piel.
Cuando toma la decisión de aceptar el divorcio de su esposo lo hará bajo sus propios términos; con la ayuda de un primo logra un divorcio exitoso llevándose en el acuerdo de divorcio poco más de 2 millones de Yuanes. Logra recuperar a sus hijos y se muda lejos de su familia a una nueva ciudad dónde paso a paso logra abrirse camino y cambiar su propia realidad y la de sus hijos. Convirtiéndose con mucho esfuerzo en un ave fénix.
Al final es una historia de transmigración del genero romántico. Si embargo logra animarte y hacerte pensar que puedes lograr tus objetivos.
Altamente recomendable.

Completed LN, Est 1,049 pages
The usual soap opera drama with crappy family & rivals for conflict. Otherwise, this LN was a wholesome story about a woman striving for independence and financial security for her family. I need to earmark a future rabbit hoke search into Chinese recent history. I know a chunk of this LN was based on 90's economy & government. It reads more like weird fiction though.
The cover is terrible and hilarious. 😆 There was no surfing in the story. Just in case anyone was wondering. 🤣

3.7⭐ La historia, bueno, no puedo decir si se sentía muy 'real' porque ni soy coreana, ni tengo la edad, ni conozco el tiempo de corea en el que se basa este libro, sin embargo, se sintió que todo encajaba, si tengo un detalle es que tal vez me hubiera un poco más de interacción con los hijos, aunque disfrute lo de los trabajos, y sí hubo ocasiones en las que sentí 'esto es un poco ridículo' con respecto a algunas partes de sus relaciones, pero fuera de eso, creo que es una lectura interesante, aunque a veces se la sentí un poco demasiado larga.

It's an entertaining story with a happy ending typical of transmigration stories. It's ideal if you want to read something not too complicated, a likeable protagonist and a good ML.

the ending is not satisfying but overall a good novel :)

Essa historia traz muito satisfação, ver uma mulher dar a volta por cima e reencontrar a felicidade, numa cidade onde ela está totalmente sozinha com 2 crianças. É sinceramente muito bom.

I read through the machine translation. It's quite adorable. I like how the author actually showed the struggle of losing weight as opposed to suddenly having a dream body within a week of making the decision of losing weight. My favorite part was how considerate she became of her children, and didn't jump into a relationship without thought. Both the MC and ML took their time, it was not a insta-love. Best of all, there was none of that rape and abusive bullshit that is so prevalent in web novels.
