Transmigrated into the Villain's Early-Deceased Wife

Song Huan, a modern woman who died a gruesome death, transmigrates into the world of the novel My Husband Wields Supreme Power. She inhabits the body of Song Huan, the insignificant first wife of the villain Pei Yan, who originally died on her wedding night from poisoning. Upon arrival, Song Huan finds herself in the bridal chamber moments before assassins attack. A malfunctioning System grants her only thirty minutes of life value, forcing her into a desperate survival scenario. Pei Yan, a cold and ruthless Marquis with a history of violence, initially orders her death but spares her when she displays unexpected fearlessness. She is wounded in the neck but survives, only to be revived by the System after her soul is temporarily ejected. The System reveals that she has three rebirth attempts and must complete missions to gain life value and affection points from Pei Yan to survive.

Song Huan wakes up ten days later in the Marquis Manor, recovering from her neck wound. She discovers that the System is unreliable and often offline, leaving her to navigate the dangerous political and social landscape of the Pei household on her own. Her primary goal is to increase Pei Yan's affection toward her, as each percentage point grants her fusion rate with the host body and life value. However, Pei Yan is deeply suspicious and hostile toward women, having been traumatized by past betrayals and violence. He views Song Huan as a scheming woman who promised to kill herself to help him destroy her own family, a promise she made before her transmigration. Despite his cold demeanor, he allows her to remain in the manor, though he keeps her at arm's length.

The core conflict arises from Song Huan's need to survive while dealing with Pei Yan's volatile nature and the lingering threats from her original family. Her mother and stepsister, who abused her in the original story, have come to the manor under the guise of concern but are actually plotting against her. Song Huan uses her knowledge of the novel's plot and her modern skills to outmaneuver them. She cooks meals for Pei Yan, hoping to win his favor, and tends to his wounds after he returns from battle injured. These interactions create a complex dynamic where Pei Yan is simultaneously intrigued and suspicious of her changed behavior.

A key turning point occurs when Song Huan kisses Pei Yan to complete a System mission, which unexpectedly raises his affection points and allows her to access the original host's memories. She learns that the original Song Huan had indeed plotted with Pei Yan to kill her father and stepmother, but she did not intend to die herself. The assassins who attacked on the wedding night were likely sent by the Song family or their allies, not Pei Yan. Song Huan realizes that she must clear her name and survive the immediate threats while trying to build a genuine connection with Pei Yan. She also discovers that Pei Yan is being targeted by Princess Shangjia, who desires him as a wife, adding another layer of political intrigue to her situation.

As the story progresses, Song Huan continues to balance her survival tasks with the growing tension between her and Pei Yan. She uses her cooking and medical skills to gain his trust, while also investigating the truth behind the original Song Huan's death and the assassination attempt. The System provides occasional guidance, but Song Huan must rely on her own wit and courage to navigate the dangers of the Marquis Manor. Her relationship with Pei Yan evolves from one of mutual suspicion to a tentative alliance, as they both face external threats from the imperial court and rival factions. Song Huan's ultimate goal is to survive and perhaps find a way back to her own world, but she becomes increasingly invested in Pei Yan's fate and the secrets of the novel's plot.
