Part 1: The Chain of Events of Spending the Villain’s Money to Extend My Life

Gu Shishi was born into relative wealth in the novel “Spending the villain’s money to extend my life” but she switched places at birth with Gu Wushuang, a young woman from a poor family.

Due to her heart condition, Gu Wushuang was deemed unsuitable to be Huo’s arranged wife. The union of the Huo and Gu families was a time-honored custom. That settles it; Gu Shishi will wed the venerable old Huo. She may have been assigned to the Hou household, but her true affections lie with the second young master.

Gu Shishi couldn’t believe she’d been transported into the novel she was reading, much less the role of the protagonist’s female counterpart. Her husband Huo Sishen’s masculine voice interrupted her thought, and she looked up at the tiny closet window with wide eyes.

With her eyes shut and shame entirely accepted, Gu Shishi was about to get a call from Huo Shishen when a voice interrupted him. When she realized that the young master was leaving, she let out a long sigh.

Seeing how close she was, she decided to use Huo Shishen’s bathroom for her bath. Having freshly showered, Gu Shishi went to Huo Shishen’s closet to select an outfit. She was dressed in his boxers and a baggy shirt. When Gu Shishi had finished getting ready, Huo Shishen emerged from the dressing room. He stared at Gu Shishi with wide eyes.

Soon after that, Gu Shishi once again faded into oblivion. The novel presented a constant test of her courage with each new chapter. She opened her eyes to find herself met by angry glares. It was Huo Shishen’s annoyed expression directed toward her.

Whenever Huo Shishen saw her, he immediately became enraged. Words appeared before her eyes, stating that she needed to find a solution to this problem to continue living her life in the novel. Huo Shishen’s big hand came up, and he began to choke her. Thanks to the helper named Siyi, who barged into Huo Shishen’s room and announced that they needed to act quickly because of a crisis.

Gu Shishi had to find ways to escape sticky situations to continue her life in the novel. Evidently, she was being abused by her ruthless husband, but she had to find a way to keep going.

Since the original Gu Shishi in the novel met her end at Huo Shishen’s hands, using her money to buy more time was the only way to bring about the desired outcome. Her surroundings constantly shift as she reads, and she eventually jumps to the next chapter.
