After Going to the Countryside as an Educated Youth, She Kept Her Head Down

The heroine isn't kindhearted and has a bit of a scheming streak. The hero isn't a good man in the traditional sense.

From the heroine's perspective:

Chen Weixiu was forced to go to the countryside to help with development in a harsh rural area. But did she look like someone who was easy to bully? If she had to go, then the person who got her sent there wasn't going to get off easy either.

That person was bound to be sent to the countryside, yet dragged her down with her. Was Chen Weixiu someone you could mess with? She made sure the other woman was sent away without a penny to her name.

She thought life in the countryside would be miserable. After all, her skin was delicate.

But before she'd spent more than a few days enduring the hardships, she met Zhou Hongxi, who promised to pamper her for the rest of her life. Hmph, was she the sort of person who'd fall for that? But after just a few days together, she found herself falling for him.

Well, maybe it wasn't such a bad idea.

From the hero's perspective:

Zhou Hongxi thought he'd have to spend his life alone.

But when another group of educated youths arrived, he caught sight of the most striking one among them, and felt his heart flutter. There was no doubt about it: he'd fallen for her.

He didn't know how to describe the feeling. Perhaps it was the first time he'd wanted to spend his whole life with someone.

Looking at his savings, he thought, yeah, he'd work hard to provide for her.
