Shu Xuhui's perspective
The Shu family fell from power, and the fake heiress, Shu Xuhui, was forced to report to the military district to fulfill her betrothal.
Then she suddenly gained the ability to hear the real heiress's thoughts!
In her previous life, she'd married the third son of the Bai family, died in childbirth, and become his dead first love?
After she died, the real heiress and the third son of the Bai family had gotten together?
So the real heiress had switched the marriage contract ahead of time in this life, planning to take Shu Xuhui's place.
Shu Xuhui was disgusted. A man who remarried right after her death but still pretended to be heartbroken made her sick. She might as well not marry him!
But when she turned around, a 190-centimeter-tall, tan, rugged man was glaring at her darkly. "Don't want to marry my younger brother? Then marry me instead."
Bai Xiaoyun's perspective
Why should the child he'd raised from childhood marry his younger brother after seven years apart? He was the one who'd been promised to her!
Before he could even lose his temper, the delicate little thing called the military district. "I want the highest-ranking officer. Come pick me up. If you don't, I won't marry your younger brother!"
Marry his younger brother?
Dream on.
Bai Xiaoyun crushed the receiver in his bare hand, pulled her close by the waist, and kissed her.
The delicate little thing: "!!! You pervert!"
Bai Xiaoyun growled, "You can only marry me. Can anyone else take proper care of you?"
She didn't want to?
Then he'd take her by force!
It wasn't as if he was a good person anyway!
Only he could marry Miss Shu!
The male lead is often called a mad dog, but he's actually very good to the female lead. The female lead outwardly dislikes and opposes him, but she also cares about him. She's stubborn and doesn't admit her feelings, creating a complex relationship between a seemingly antagonistic couple and a bickering pair.
Could it be that Tao Ying wasn't actually a wealthy heiress, but rather that Tao Ying's mother felt she wasn't living a good life in the mountain village and took her back as if she were? That would be incredibly tragic for the female lead, especially since Tao Ying sent her back to the village and her parents remained unmoved. I hope it's not like that.
Three and a half stars is alright. It would be nice if there were more side couples (i. E., Transmigrators) later on, otherwise people who don't like this kind of thing might find it a bit jarring 🌝🌝, because I feel like the transmigration aspect was unnecessary in the first place.
The story is engaging, the daily lives of the male and female leads are heartwarming, and the female lead's personality is particularly endearing and charming, like a spoiled little kitten. [I'm so full][I'm so full][I'm so full]
Is the female lead a real heiress or a fake one?
