    Description:
    After the death of Fu Sinian, Yu Duo’s heart shattered into pieces. As his widow, she was the recipient of Fu Sinian’s massive amount of inheritance. She spent her days drowning herself with alcohol and was depressed all the time. She mourned her late husband with the companionship of her designer purses, designer jewelries, and money that could last her several lifetimes.

    But only Fu Sinian knew the truth — that after his death, this woman hosted parties, lived in their mansion, drove expensive sport cars, traveled the world, and flirted with men. She was having the time of her life.

    Fu Sinian wasn’t so angry that his soul dissipated; quite the contrary, he was so angry that he had come back to life!

    Fu Sinian, who had come back to live, looked at the mourning Yu Duo and smiled devilishly.

    “We are on! Watch me make you fall in love with me for real this time!”

    They dropped this (and another one of their novels) in favour of Spending the Villain’s Money to Extend My Life, which, IMO, is much better. (y)

    Don't understand why ML likes her at all. The title should've been:
    Widow who squandered Her Late Husband's Inheritance: Tales of Revenge
    :cookie:
    yeah, I don't read het novels

    I think at first, he just found her interesting, and it would be inconvenient to not marry her because of the fuss her parents made. And then, after time went on, feeling developed on his end.

    As for the MC, she feels justified in spending his money because during the past few years, she acted out the role of an ideal wife for him.

    Edited to add: Spoilerish. As the story progresses, we see that she does have feelings for him. They're just suppressed. She enjoys looking at eyecandy, but she doesn't have any intention of doing anything past superficial flirting. She's mourning his death in her own way.

    Looks like a novel with a cute setup is dumped in favor of a system-face-slapping-novel. Pity, I hope someone picks it up.

    Actually, the ML is the typical arrogant villain CEO who will in the original book plot, abuse the FL physically (r*pe) and mentally (no love) since he had 'bought' the girl. The original owner forced to married the ML, ended up very unhappy over this torture.

    The FL who unluckily transmigrates over, knows how the story goes, so she acted timid and passive, which is the type the ML preferred, just so that she can live on and avoid her bad end. Since she also knew the ML will die 3 years later, she was able to endure 'acting' until finally, the ML croak and she's free to live as she pleased. But who knew that the ML would became ghost and starts haunting the poor FL.

    So, in reality, the ML hasn't really likes the FL from the beginning, since he only tolerates her because the FL, who had read the book, knows the type ML likes and who had only acted like that in order to avoid the bad ending. The FL was treated like a pet who if do well, gets rewarded, do bad, gets punished. Even when the FL does well, she still need to 'warm' the bed and the ML will be mega alpha during those time causing sores and pain after each 'warming bed'.

    Then, when the ML turn ghost saw her 'true colours', he felt cheated so vow to get revenge by making her fall for him for real. But the twist here is he ended up falling HARD for the FL instead. :ROFLMAO:So I'm really curious to see how this happen.

    Translated chapters are split into parts. By raw chapter count, the translation will stop at 25% of the novel (Raw chapter 10 out of 40 chapters).
