The Villainess Awakens After Marrying the Male Lead’s Brother - Chapter 42
**Chapter 42**
Jiang Yunjin did fall into the sea. However, wearing a life jacket, he couldn’t sink. He could swim, and soon the staff pulled him up, and he resumed rowing. This time with even more effort. Su Lengyue was astonished, “Why so intense all of a sudden?” Jiang Yunjin shook his head without speaking, mainly because of the microphone; he dared not speak but wished he could vent a thousand words.
His big brother’s cruise! That cruise! Cruise! He was so eager. Without a doubt, being able to send a cruise in such a short time meant it wasn’t bought immediately. Otherwise, with all the messy procedures for ownership, decoration, and maintenance, it would take too long. So it must be the one his big brother already had. It’s worth admiring his big brother; he bought the cruise himself!
In Jiang Yunjin’s memory, his big brother had always been steady and reliable. Six years older, his big brother was a very disciplined and calm child from the time Jiang Yunjin could remember. As he grew up and demonstrated his strong work ability and money-making talent, he became someone to look up to.
The Jiang family, developed under his grandfather, suffered losses in the hands of Jiang’s father in just ten years. However, when Jiang Yunyan entered the Jiang family, things began to change. Later, to challenge himself, he went to the entertainment industry with some money. When he returned, that money had turned into a company worth tens of billions!
He then chose to sell a small portion of Jiang shares, stepped down as Jiang’s boss, returned to the Jiang family, and used the money from the shares to buy this cruise. Jiang’s parents were strict with their children, relaxing a bit after they reached adulthood, but excess extravagance was still not allowed. Many things were affordable but unnecessary.
Like this cruise, Jiang Yunjin liked it very much, but it was his big brother’s treasure. He could only borrow it on his birthday, and even then, he had to behave well; otherwise, it was impossible. A few years ago, when he was not sensible, he insisted on wanting it, only to be beaten by his mother. It’s easy to imagine the shock his decision to buy the cruise caused his parents. A well-behaved child suddenly spending so much money on a cruise?
The two were full of worries, afraid that their son might go astray. After spending lavishly on a cruise ship, Jiang Yunyan drifted at sea for a month, only to return to work. The cruise ship remained largely unused, occasionally borrowed by his brother and friends.
Ironically, it was Jiang Yunyan’s parents who worried about his brother working too hard, urging him to take an annual trip. When his brother did go, it was usually with friends to nearby islands, focusing on beachside fishing.
The extravagant cruise ship seemed wasted to Jiang Yunjin, who felt a growing regret for its underutilization. Hearing his sister-in-law mention it this time, he didn’t catch on immediately.
The moment he heard the term ‘Old Jiang,’ he recalled his brother’s friends and realized they were calling out to Wen Yu.
So, the cruise ship was given to Wen Yu?!!!
He couldn’t believe it! Unable to contain himself, he paddled for a while, noticed the distance between him and the other three teams, and whispered the situation to Su Lengyue.
“You think he’s fair? He directly gave it to Wen Yu! Last year, during Chinese New Year, and on my birthday, he refused to lend it to me, saying that since I earn so much, I should buy my own. And now, he just gave it to Wen Yu! It’s infuriating!”
Su Lengyue, affectionately patting her boyfriend’s head, responded, “Why compare yourself to Wen Yu? As you said, the cruise ship belonged to your brother before marriage. Now that Little Fish and he are married, it’s shared property. Whether it’s a gift or not doesn’t make a difference.”
Jiang Yunjin defended, “No, the cruise ship was before my brother’s marriage. It doesn’t count as shared property.”
Su Lengyue raised an eyebrow, “You seem quite clear on this legal matter.”
He panicked, “No, no! You’re right. It is shared property. Little Fish has a share. Don’t misunderstand; I truly know nothing. I’m legally blind!”
Su Lengyue chuckled, “Haha.” She found it amusing.
Jiang Yunjin sighed in relief, “You’re right. I shouldn’t compare myself to her. Whenever my brother sees me with her, he treats her well. I hope they can stay happy together.”
Su Lengyue agreed, “They will.” Observing their sweet interaction, she felt they had come a long way from their initial awkwardness. Jiang Yunyan was impressive, and Wen Yu’s decision to divorce seemed like a rash move.
Jiang Yunjin, glancing around, suddenly tensed, “Oh no, they’re catching up so quickly!” He resumed paddling.
Live chat comments:
–
“Ah, Jiang Ge, what did you tell your sister-in-law?”
– “What secret can’t we hear?!”
–
“Jiang Ge! Did you forget to mention…”
“Audio device activated!!!】
【Yuanyuan, spill some gossip too! I’m dying of suspense!】
——
In the end, this round had Jiang Yunjin and Su Lengyue in first place, Liang Heng and Wen Yu in second, Yuan Tan and Shen Xi in third, and Xu Bin and Fu Chun in fourth.They each received their respective points.Liang Heng quickly handed over half of the points he got from Shen Xi.
“Little fish!” Yuan Tan glared fiercely.
Wen Yu, feeling guilty, turned away and consolidated all the score cards. She hadn’t bought any clues while others had, so her score was now 105!It would be difficult for her to be surpassed without unexpected events.The director with a megaphone: “Now, please point out who the undercover agent is.”
They quickly pointed at Wen Yu and Liang Heng: “Them!”
Director: “Correct.”
He chuckled, “Now, let’s look at the scores. With the known mole Wen Yu, scoring 105, is there anyone with a higher score?”
The remaining three teams looked at each other, checked their scores, and looked defeated: “No.”
Director: “Alright, congratulations to Wen Yu and Liang Heng. You two get the luxury suite tonight,while the others can only sleep in tents.”
Yuan Tan said mockingly, “Tents~”
Su Lengyue also sighed, “Tents~”
Wen Yu: “I’ll leave the door open tonight, welcoming you two sisters to climb into bed.”
Danmu:
【Hahaha! Wen Yu knows how to play】
【Climb into bed, hehe, dare you to livestream the
whole night】
【Making the flying guest the mole in the first
episode, the directing team is really bold, not afraid to mess it up】
【Wen Yu is really different from what’s said online, at least she doesn’t like Jiang Yunjin, but has a good relationship with Su Lengyue. Love watching the beauty sticking together, adoring the beauty】
Since the morning, the overwhelmingly negative barrage had decreased. With Wen Yu’s seemingly good relationship with Su Lengyue, at least the average viewer now believed Wen Yu didn’t like Jiang Yunjin.Regardless of previous feelings, it was clear she didn’t like him now.Since that’s the case, those involved weren’t bothered, most viewers didn’t care either—praising if it’s funny, mocking if it’s not.
Su Lengyue’s fans, seeing the main character actively getting close to Wen Yu, dared not criticize anymore.
Without the orchestrated drama, without the flame-baiting, the barrage returned to normal, all focused on the show.When the director asked the guests to change clothes, Wen Yu received a message from Sister Liu:
【Too many people to sue, Jiang’s legal department is also here to help. The impression has already turned around, don’t worry, enjoy the game】
Xiao Yu said, “I’ve been live streaming, and the bullet comments are harmonious. Those who curse get banned immediately. By now in the afternoon, most comments are praising. Are you happy?”
Wen Yu smiled, “Yes.”
Yesterday, she said she would sue those spreading rumors, setting the tone, and insulting others, mainly because her pitiful fans were harassed by antis, making her uncomfortable.
Now, it seems that such scenes won’t happen again.
Xiao Yu is also happy. Although she initially came for the high salary, she has genuinely grown fond of this boss. Easygoing, generous, no more love-related tantrums – she’s convinced he’s the best boss in the world!
So, she hopes the boss remains well.

After changing clothes, the live stream continues.
Today’s tasks are completed, but the production team will organize some small games. After a busy afternoon, everyone is tired. The games are not physically demanding, mostly guessing songs, dramas, and the like.While playing, they have dinner.It’s getting cold.The production team heads back, sending the guests to the restful homestay. In front of it, six large tents are set up.Seeing this, Yuan Tan sneers again.Wen Yu immediately sticks close,
“Shall we sleep together tonight?”
Yuan Tan reluctantly agrees, “Fine.”
Director: “Absolutely not!”
Yuan Tan: “…”
Wen Yu: “…”
She can only say, “I’ll give you a surprise tomorrow, Wen Yu settles Yuan Tan and goes upstairs to enjoy the luxurious suite she cunningly obtained.
The production team was right about the luxury – one bedroom, one living room, a projector for movies, and stylish decor, but cameras are everywhere.
Although not live, they’re kept on for additional content later.Sitting inside feels uncomfortable.
At that moment, her phone vibrates. Xiao Chen has messaged her.Wen Yu’s eyes widen; the message reads:
[Boss lady, I’m at your homestay’s entrance. Let’s sign the gift contract first. I can transfer ownership tomorrow.]
Wen Yu: “…”
She gets up and ‘floats’ out.
It’s not surprising she’s absent-minded. The cruise’s value is staggering! Leaving aside its significance, the money spent and the annual maintenance costs are mind-boggling.
There are many staff members here. Once on board, Xiao Chen drives away from the production team, handing over the contract directly in the car.
The gift contract appears conspicuously in front of Wen Yu. Xiao Chen holds the inkpad, “Boss lady, just sign here and stamp your handprint.”
Wen Yu: “…”
Certainly! Here is the English translation of the Chinese paragraphs with spaces between them:
Come on, really!
Although she was pleasantly surprised to receive the news from Jiang Yunyan, it felt a bit unreal due to its extravagance. However, the sincerity of this person is beyond doubt!
The gift contract is all prepared. ⊿Thinking⊿Rabbit⊿Document⊿Shared⊿with⊿Online⊿Reading⊿
It means that regardless of her future with him, the cruise ship is hers. Even if she can’t afford its upkeep later, selling it directly would make her rich instantly.
He really…cried, it’s too good!
But Wen Yu still asked, “Who will cover the maintenance cost of the cruise?”
She has no money!
Little Chen: “The boss will cover it.”
Relieved.
Wen Yu took a deep breath and signed it.
Regardless, she’s being greedy now.
Jiang Yunyan knows how to control her; there’s simply no way to refuse.
If something unexpected happens in the future, she’ll deal with it later. For now, she’s happy.
She has a cruise ship!!!
——
Getting off the car, Wen Yu felt her worth skyrocketing.
Every step, she was careful, afraid of falling.
It’s different now.
But when she reached the corner of the stairs, a voice suddenly came from behind, “Teacher Wen, where did you go today?”
Wen Yu subconsciously frowned; what’s with this questioning tone?
She restrained the joy on her face, coldly turned her head, and saw Fu Chun with a somewhat ambiguous smile, as if she had caught onto something about her?
Wen Yu doesn’t like her; during the program, after the initial setbacks, Fu Chun didn’t dare to make trouble. Everything was calm during the day, so why is she causing trouble at night?
She replied indifferently, “None of your business.”
After saying that, she didn’t intend to pay any attention and was about to go upstairs.
Fu Chun, behind her, said softly, “You left in the car in the evening. It’s been forty minutes now. There’s a man in the car. Teacher Wen, how will your husband react when he finds out about this?”
Wen Yu:?
She looked at her in silence.
Seeing that she indeed had a reaction, Fu Chun’s expression became slightly excited. She quickly took two steps up to match her height and whispered, “I advise you to divorce as soon as possible, or beware of being kicked out with nothing~”
