[Clear-headed, ruthless entrepreneurial heroine × cold-faced military officer who fiercely protects and pampers his wife; revenge + putting scumbags in their place + raising a child + getting rich in the era, a satisfying ride from start to finish!]
Reborn in the 1980s, she discovers she has become Xu Xiaoman, the village’s much-despised lovesick fool. She drained her family’s resources for a scumbag, ruined her elder sister’s college entrance exam, and was ultimately cast aside with divorce papers before drowning in despair. When she opens her eyes, she faces parents who play favorites, an elder sister consumed by resentment, and a younger brother’s wife who leeches off the family. Xu Xiaoman gives a cold laugh: “I’ll turn this terrible hand into a winning one!” She tears into the scumbag, kicks the worst of the family to the curb, starts a business, and even rescues her own daughter, who was abused and branded a “cheap girl.” But why does Zhou Nanqiao, who always shows up in a crisis, look at her with an ever hotter gaze?
“Comrade Zhou, it’s not appropriate to bring food coupons over this late at night, is it?”
“Your daughter says she needs a dad to teach her how to read.”
Her scumbag ex-husband kneels outside the army compound, weeping: “Xiaoman, I was wrong! Please forgive me!”
Xu Xiaoman turns around and reports him for cheating on the college entrance exam and stealing someone else’s place: “There’s plenty of prison food for you. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out!”
