[Historical era + reborn in the 1970s + one-on-one, both leads devoted only to each other]
[A clear-headed beauty who seems easygoing but is actually forceful vs. a seemingly obedient, gloomy crybaby who gets jealous and clings to her + happy ending, with a little angst for flavor and sweetness overall]
In her previous life, Yuan Qingyue was the unattainable moonlight of the entire workers’ compound, a woman everyone loved but could never have. People said she had a princess complex without a princess’s fate.
Reborn into a new life, she refuses to let others toy with her and plans to develop her prospects in secret after heading to the countryside. She never expected some little punk to show up out of nowhere, stubbornly insisting on taking care of her.
Yuan Qingyue waves him away disdainfully. “I have very high standards for how I live.”
“We have the money to afford it.”
Yuan Qingyue raises an eyebrow. “I don’t like doing farmwork.”
“You won’t have to lift a finger, darling.”
Yuan Qingyue blinks and says firmly, “I want a big house, the best moisturizer, meat at every meal, and new clothes every month...”
“Done, done, done. I’ll buy it all for you, darling.”
After they marry, Yuan Qingyue can’t stand her man crying all the time and getting irrationally jealous, so she cruelly asks for a divorce.
The rough, sobbing man finally turns cold.
“Fine, let’s divorce! I’ll be just fine without you. Who do you think you are?”
Half a month after his wife leaves, the rough man is crying and making a scene again:
“I was wrong, I’ll change. I’ll never get jealous for no reason again. Don’t send me away, darling. Don’t shut me out.”
[The male lead is older, but not a daddy type. He’s a rather eccentric one.]
[They will divorce, so don’t read if that bothers you.]
