The Wealthy Husband Can Read Minds [Transmigration]

Tong Yue is a twenty-five-year-old award-winning actress who possesses immense wealth and fame. After reading a novel that details her future as a malicious supporting character, she anticipates a tragic end involving abandonment, betrayal, and public ruin. Instead of following the scripted path, she unexpectedly ascends to become a goddess, inheriting authority over a remote, dangerous mountain known for trapping hikers. Despite her new divine status, she maintains her career in the entertainment industry, navigating a contractual marriage with Meng Yuqi, a powerful and wealthy tycoon. The marriage was arranged for mutual benefit, with Tong Yue securing resources and the Meng family gaining a compliant daughter-in-law, though she views it strictly as a business arrangement.

Meng Yuqi harbors deep feelings for Tong Yue, having loved her for years before their marriage. Unbeknownst to her, he possesses the ability to read her thoughts, a power that only works on her. This ability allows him to understand her true intentions and inner monologue, revealing that she sees him as a reliable partner rather than a romantic interest. He uses this knowledge to care for her subtly, such as providing for her family and ensuring her comfort, while hiding his emotional vulnerability behind a composed exterior. Tong Yue remains unaware of his telepathic ability, interpreting his attentiveness as part of their contractual agreement or his general kindness.

The central conflict arises from Lin Qian, an actress who has been reborn with knowledge of the future. In her previous life, Tong Yue starred in the film Moonlight and won critical acclaim, but Lin Qian believes she was destined for that role. Bound to a fox spirit, Lin Qian seeks to steal Tong Yue’s fate and gather faith energy. She secures the lead role in Moonlight through an audition, leveraging Tong Yue’s absence and the director’s preference for newcomers. This act disrupts the natural order, causing Lin Qian to suffer a series of misfortunes, including sudden rainstorms and physical accidents, which are subtly enforced by spiritual forces. The fox spirit warns her that stealing another’s destiny carries a price, but Lin Qian remains determined to outshine Tong Yue.

As Tong Yue embraces her role as a goddess, she begins to interact with the spiritual world more directly. She inherits ancient memories and senses the presence of magical creatures, including a wolf disguised as a pet husky in the Meng household and various spirits working in zoos and rescue teams. Her divine nature allows her to protect her mountain domain and assist lost hikers, drawing the attention of the Monster Management Bureau. Meanwhile, her relationship with Meng Yuqi evolves through intimate moments and shared domestic life. He grows increasingly affectionate, attempting to bridge the emotional distance between them, while Tong Yue focuses on her career and her new responsibilities as a deity.

The narrative explores the tension between Tong Yue’s mortal ambitions and her divine duties. She continues to act in films and manage her public image, refusing to be sidelined by the plot outlined in the novel. Her professional success and marital stability contrast with Lin Qian’s desperate attempts to usurp her place. The story highlights the consequences of interfering with fate, as Lin Qian’s actions trigger supernatural repercussions. Tong Yue’s growing power and awareness of the spiritual realm position her as a guardian figure, while Meng Yuqi’s unwavering support underscores his desire for a genuine connection beyond their contract.

The plot advances through interactions with extended family and the entertainment industry. Meng Yuqi’s aunt, Meng Meihua, opposes the marriage due to class prejudices and familial rivalry, creating domestic tension. Tong Yue handles these conflicts with detachment, relying on Meng Yuqi’s authority to shield her. The story also delves into the bureaucratic aspects of the spiritual world, depicting a Monster Management Bureau that regulates magical creatures and maintains balance. Tong Yue’s actions, such as directing a dragon to create rain, demonstrate her increasing influence over natural phenomena.

Ultimately, the story follows Tong Yue’s journey from a feared villainess in a novel to a respected goddess and successful actress. She navigates the complexities of her contract marriage, her rising divine status, and the threats posed by those seeking to steal her destiny. The narrative balances romantic development with supernatural elements, showing how Tong Yue asserts her agency in both the mortal and spiritual realms. Her relationship with Meng Yuqi deepens as he continues to pursue her affection, while she learns to accept her role as a protector and a deity.
