This story is set in an alternate world, so please don’t overanalyze the details. (1980s + everyday life + sweet romance + marriage first, love later + love grows over time + both leads are devoted to each other)
[A clear-headed heroine vs. a hero who says one thing but means another]
A pampered, spendthrift heiress opens her eyes and finds herself transported to the 1980s. She never imagined she’d become a village girl whom even the dogs can’t stand.
From the start, she has nothing to her name and has to rely on Grandma for pocket money. Then someone steals her fiancé. She takes one look at her former fiancé, her face openly full of disdain. Whoever wants him can have him. She couldn’t care less!
To appease her doting grandmother, she has no choice but to start looking for a suitable “meal ticket.”
Besides, she doesn’t want to toil in the fields for work points just to support herself. She just wants to lie flat in comfort.
She wanders all over the village but finds no one suitable. Then she spots a group of newly arrived educated youths, and Shen Danggui sets her sights on them.
This one is gentle and considerate, that one is rich, and another comes from a high-ranking family. They all seem pretty good, so why not get close to all of them and see which one is easiest to handle?
But what’s with this man who wasn’t part of the plan? Why does he keep ruining her schemes?
By a twist of fate, the two eventually became a couple.
At first, he barely gave her the time of day, acting as though she were beneath him. Now he’s become clingy.
Draw your sword! This man is only going to slow down my money-making!
No, this marriage has to end...
“All of this is yours. Please don’t divorce me, okay?”
But when Pei Jin’an handed over his entire fortune in one go, she stared at it with wide eyes. Had she struck gold?!
The heroine puts her own interests first, and love grows over time after marriage.
I'm so angry. Even if I want to change the male protagonist, I can't give him a good husband in his previous life and take advantage of his cousin. Can't I find another good partner for him? The writing is so miserable, and the heroine accepted the man being robbed because her cousin is also the granddaughter of her grandma without doing anything. Even if she doesn't like her partner that much, she can't be robbed and have no reaction at all. You have shit on your head and you still dare to show off.
Self-feeling ~ This is a book by a tyrant dressed in period literature 🤦 🤦
