Twisted Lives: Orchard to Riches
Lin Ni, a burned-out corporate drone from the modern world, suddenly wakes up in a novel. She’s now the body of a vicious cannon-fodder stepmother — a character destined to be brutally tortured and killed by Lu Shuo, the story’s future villain. The original host was the biological daughter of the wealthy Su family. A malicious butler swapped her at birth, and she endured over two decades of abuse from her foster parents. When she was finally brought back to the Su mansion, her parents already doted on Su Yurou — the fake daughter raised in her place. They forced Lin Ni to take Su Yurou’s spot in an arranged marriage: she must marry Lu Dachuan, a disabled widower from the countryside with a young son. Aware of her tragic fate, Lin Ni binds with a survival system and decides to rewrite her destiny. On the very day she crosses into the novel, a fire breaks out at the Lu house. She rushes into the burning building to save Lu Dachuan and his son — but the whole village brands her a poisoner and an arsonist. At the last moment, she uses a system pill to save Lu Dachuan’s life. He wakes up and clears her name, exposing the forged evidence planted against her. Lin Ni refuses his offer of a divorce. She starts mending her relationship with Lu Shuo — paying his school fees, buying him a phone, slowly lowering his hatred. At the same time, she seizes the short-video trend. Using growth agents from her system, she revives the Lu family’s abandoned orchard, starts a countryside lifestyle channel, and goes live to sell produce. Su Yurou sees Lin Ni as a threat. She manipulates Lin Ni’s foster parents and a local thug to frame Lin Ni for poisoning the orchard. But Lin Ni is prepared. She uses orchard surveillance footage to prove the villains’ crimes and system potions to revive the trees. She clears her name, wins the villagers’ trust, and her live-stream business explodes.
