Chapter 2: Two Best Friends Live Their Own Lives!
"I knew it!" Lin Weiwei slapped her thigh and lowered her voice, "Back then, Bai Si'an kissed me so hard I was dazed, but my mind was like a movie, flashing through fragments of the original owner's memories. Things like 'I won't marry a useless man,' 'I'd rather marry a cripple than a man who can't have children,' it was all a mess. Then, when I heard him call me 'Wanwan' in his hoarse voice, I jolted awake and remembered it all!"
"The book says that I, 'Lin Weiwei,' married Bai Rongbei, while 'Su Wanwan' married Bai Si'an! Oh no, I slept with the wrong person!"
Su Wanwan was also still shaken: "It was similar on my end. Bai Rongbei had just put me on the bed and leaned over me when my head suddenly started throbbing, and all my memories came flooding back... Luckily, he was very gentle and asked if I wasn't feeling well, offering to get me some water, which stopped him from continuing... Otherwise..."
They both shivered at the same time, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
"I remember this book," Lin Weiwei recalled. "We are the perfect contrast. The female protagonist came from the countryside, was hardworking and positive, and settled down with her husband on the frontier, eventually becoming a model military wife."
"What about us? We were born into capitalist families, spoiled and unable to endure hardship. We made a fool of ourselves in the military camp every day, and even competed with each other by pulling each other's hair. In the end, we were disliked and packed up together to be sent back to our hometowns. Later, we were sent down to farms, and our fate was pretty miserable."
Su Wanwan suddenly remembered the description of the Bai brothers in the book and said excitedly, "Most importantly, Bai Si'an is a bit lame, and Bai Rongbei is a man without an heir!"
Lin Weiwei also remembered this most important point and continued her analysis, "Yes, I remembered it too! There is this setting in the book. The reason why the original Lin Weiwei and Su Wanwan were unwilling to get married was because one of them was a cripple and the other was a man without an heir. That's why they cried, made a scene, and even threatened to hang themselves to avoid getting married."
"The Su and Lin families, wanting their daughters to marry military officers so they would have someone to rely on before going to the countryside, used their weaknesses to coerce them into marriage."
"Su Wanwan's grandmother has been locked up by Su Erbo. If Su Wanwan doesn't come to the wedding, her grandmother might die!"
"Lin Weiwei's biological mother's belongings were also taken by her biological father, so Lin Weiwei had no choice but to get married!"
Su Wanwan nodded and smiled wryly, "Our lives after transmigrating into this book are probably not going to be easy. We've run into a crippled military officer and a man without heirs. But it's a good thing, I don't want to have children either. You sleeping with the wrong man has actually helped me. I'm marrying a man without heirs, which is pretty good."
Lin Weiwei thought of Bai Si'an being a cripple, and her feelings were quite complicated. "I'm a womanizer, and compared to a man without heirs, a crippled officer isn't so bad. Wanwan, I never expected that we would end up in the wrong wedding sedan chair. I just don't know if we've married the right man."
Su Wanwan didn't know what the future held, but now that they had arrived in this world, they could only move forward.
"The original book says that Bai Si'an is a top-notch technician. He is clueless about romance and is ashamed of his lameness. Bai Rongbei, on the other hand, is a man without an heir. Because he cannot stand up, he becomes increasingly sinister. This makes the male protagonist even better. I remember that the male protagonist was also injured later on, but he worked hard to learn the technology. The military leaders grew to like him more and more, and the two Bai brothers were often compared to the male protagonist. Their lives in the military region were not easy either."
Hearing this, Lin Weiwei's chest heaved with anger. "So, we two couples are the control group for the male and female leads' model couple?!"
Su Wanwan nodded, agreeing with Lin Weiwei's summary, "That's right. We are their control group. The more chaotic things get between our two couples, the more loving the male and female leads become."
"Another thing is that the male and female leads have an incredible chemistry, and the female lead even took our jobs in the military camp."
"No, we absolutely cannot let the female lead control us like this!"
"Yes, what belongs to us must not be taken away!"
The two analyzed for a while, their mouths were dry, so they picked up the enamel cups on the table and gulped down several cups of water. After finishing the water, Su Wanwan took Lin Weiwei's hand and said.
"Weiwei, are you satisfied with your husband? Now that we're in this world, why don't we overturn the novel's plot and live a life that's truly our own?"
Lin Weiwei had the same idea. She stood up and spoke passionately, "That's right, we've already transmigrated, and we've slept with the wrong husbands. So let's make the best of it and each live our lives to the fullest!"
After encouraging herself, Lin Weiwei suddenly chuckled. She winked and whispered, "That guy Bai Si'an... even though he's a cripple, he has a really good physique."
Su Wanwan blushed and gently nudged her: "Keep your voice down! Judging from your expression, were you full just now?"
Lin Weiwei sighed and replied, "No, just now... well, that's it... so it's a minor success."
Su Wanwan blushed again when she saw Lin Weiwei making an opening and closing gesture with her hand.
Lin Weiwei, who started out drawing color comics, has a really strong ability to learn!
Lin Weiwei wasn't the type to prioritize romance over friendship. Thinking of her best friend's husband, who had no heirs, she frowned and quickly asked, "Wanwan, what about you? Are you satisfied with Bai Rongbei? If you're not, I won't marry Bai Si'an either. I'll take you with me and leave this wretched place."
Su Wanwan doesn't have a good place to go right now. If she marries Bai Rongbei, at least she can stay in the military family compound. She doesn't want to go back with Lin Weiwei and be sent to a farm.
Based on comprehensive considerations, Bai Rongbei is Su Wanwan's only option at this stage.
So she couldn't give up her officer husband. "I think Bai Rongbei is alright... at least his looks appeal to me, and I just saw that his pants were bulging. I think he probably can't have children, but that doesn't mean he can't have sex."
Su Wanwan blushed as she said this, holding Lin Weiwei's hand, "Well, let's just take it one step at a time. For the sake of both of us staying on the farm, we have to get along well with our officer husbands!"
Lin Weiwei clicked her tongue, then her face fell. "But now my husband is your husband. Hey, tell me, does this count as...wife swapping?"
"What wife-swapping! Don't talk nonsense!" Su Wanwan quickly covered her mouth, her face turning even redder. "It was a coincidence, the organization rearranged things!"
"I know, I know," Lin Weiwei pulled her hand down, her eyes shining. After the initial panic subsided, her usual carefree personality resurfaced.
"Anyway, I don't think it's a bad deal. At least I have a husband after transmigrating, and he's even in a military uniform! It's better than the ending in the book. From now on... let's stop comparing ourselves, unite against outsiders, and make something of ourselves in this military compound, okay?"
Looking into her bright eyes, Su Wanwan's initial apprehension gradually subsided.
She nodded gently, a determined smile appearing on her gentle face: "Okay. Let's... start over."
