70's Raising a Child: I'm done with cannon fodder female supporting roles

Chapter 1 Have you had enough trouble?
"Shen Nanqiao, are you satisfied with the way you acted today?!"

In the tube-shaped building shrouded in the pitch-black night, the original silence was broken by the man's angry roar. The anger seemed to have been suppressed for a long time, and at this moment it was as strong as a volcanic eruption.

Noisy!
Who is talking in her ear?
What do you mean satisfied?

At this moment, Shen Nanqiao felt a splitting headache and his head was dizzy, as if he was tightly wrapped in a thick fog.

She clearly remembered that she was hit head-on by a speeding truck. At that moment, she felt as if her body was crushed. Could it be that auditory hallucinations and pain will always follow one after death?
"Shen Nanqiao!" Seeing that she didn't speak, the man seemed unable to suppress the anger in his heart any longer. He stretched out his big hand and suddenly pulled Shen Nanqiao up from the bed.

He was extremely strong, and the muscles on his arms bulged, showing his strength. Shen Nanqiao was shaken by this sudden movement, like a candle in the wind.

She opened her eyes dazedly, and the dim light came into view, illuminating the man's face as cold and hard as stone. His eyes seemed to be burning with two flames of anger.

Shen Nanqiao was a little confused. Why was he the first person he met in the underworld after his death?

Could it be that this ex-husband, with whom I had a quarrel until death, is also dead?
For some reason, she felt an inexplicable fear in her heart.

"What? You had the guts to commit suicide, but now you don't have the guts to speak?"

Jiang Zhe looked at the red blood clot on Shen Nanqiao's fair forehead, and his anger rose even more.

But Shen Nanqiao looked so confused, as if he didn't understand the situation at all, and his big watery eyes were full of doubts.

Seeing her pretending to be innocent, Jiang Zhe suddenly felt bored. The anger in his heart disappeared like a deflated ball, and was replaced by a deep sense of powerlessness and disgust.

"Shen Nanqiao, you despise the Jiang family's poverty and want to divorce. Fine, I won't stop you." Jiang Zhe said, and shook off Shen Nanqiao's arm with force. Shen Nanqiao immediately fell towards the wooden bed like a puppet that had lost its support.

Then, she heard Jiang Zhe coldly say, "You threatened to die in order to take my job away from me, so I'll give it to you. But the child can only belong to our Jiang family."

"Go ahead. I, Jiang Zhe, won't block your way anymore!"

Jiang Zhe's eyes were full of sarcasm. After saying this, he didn't even look at Shen Nanqiao. He turned around and slammed the door and left. The loud "bang" echoed in the silent tube building, like a heavy blow to Shen Nanqiao's heart.

Shen Nanqiao stood there in a daze for a long time, her head aching as if an invisible hand was turning the pages of a book, and she, like a bystander, clearly saw her own absurd, nightmare-like life.

Finally, she had to accept the fact that she seemed to have been reborn after dying in a car accident.

And her life is like a story written in a book.

In that book, she is an ambitious, scheming and dark person. She fights with the heroine all day long and uses all kinds of means to frame the heroine. She is an absolutely brainless and vicious female supporting role.

So, she got her comeuppance.

After being divorced by her ex-husband, she held her breath and went to work in the factory, but when she saw that the heroine was rated as an outstanding employee, she was careless and had her fingers cut off by the machine.

This serious accident caused her to lose three fingers and thus lost the opportunity to continue working in the factory.

After being discharged from the hospital, she took the work injury compensation given by the factory, but she seemed to be possessed, staring at every step of the heroine's business. No matter what the heroine did, she would try to snatch it and was determined to create hardships for the heroine.

What’s even more terrifying is that the heroine’s two children have thrived and become excellent under a good education.

What about her two children? One slipped and fell into the river, and the other went astray. In short, she is the villain in this story and is doomed to have a bad ending.

Shen Nanqiao was full of helplessness:...

The "she" in the book seemed to be possessed by a demon, but that was not me at all!
How could Shen Nanqiao be such a heartless person?

She lowered her eyes, trying to hide the sadness surging like a tide in her eyes, but a feeling of resentment gradually rose in her heart. Why?
Why should my life be written like this?

Why should one be manipulated by others at will, end up with a broken family, a lonely life, and finally be hit and killed by a car?

If she could do it all over again, she swore that she would never let her fate be controlled by others like in the book!
Her children must not suffer like that again...

"Mother."

A childish voice suddenly sounded, like a ray of light shining into the darkness, pulling Shen Nanqiao back from his deep thoughts.

Shen Nanqiao suddenly raised her eyes and stared at the little girl lying by the door. The little girl's eyes were timid, and she called her "Mom" in a low voice.

"Are you leaving?" Jiang Yaoyao looked at Shen Nanqiao cautiously.

She knew that her mother didn't like her father or this family, but she still didn't want her mother to leave.

Because in her little heart, if her mother left, she and her brother would become motherless children.

She mustered up her courage and asked with expectation in her eyes: "Can you not leave? Yaoyao will be very good. Yaoyao can help mommy wash dishes, cook, and do laundry..."

Shen Nanqiao had no reaction when Jiang Zhe scolded her just now, but at this moment, the little girl's words made her eyes moist in an instant.

Yaoyao, her daughter!

Shen Nanqiao hurriedly got out of bed and almost fell down, but this did not stop her from running towards her daughter.

She hugged the little girl tightly in her arms, feeling the warmth from that tiny body. That temperature was like a flame, warming her heart.

Shen Nanqiao buried his face in his daughter's small body, tears flowing uncontrollably like beads that had broken off the string.

She had read in that book that "she" had gone mad and abandoned her two children. Later, Jiang Yaoyao came to find "her" without telling her father and brother.
But "she" was cruel and ignored it.

The little girl followed "her" step by step.

In order to get rid of her, "she" walked very fast. How could little Jiang Yaoyao possibly keep up?

As a result, the next day, when Shen Nanqiao walked out of the yard, he heard people around him talking about the little girl who was salvaged from the river.

Whenever Shen Nanqiao thought of the scene in the book where Jiang Yaoyao fell into the river, he felt cold all over and his heart was full of hatred. He hated the "self" in the book for being so cruel.

"Mom?" Jiang Yaoyao felt herself being hugged tightly. Her mother smelled pleasant, but she was obviously stunned.
