The Cold-Faced General’s Doting Contract Bride

Xu Chenghuan, a modern financial journalist, unexpectedly transmigrates into the body of a merchant’s daughter, forced to marry Gu Hengchi, the Great General Who Guards the North. Gu Hengchi loves someone else and sees her as the greatest humiliation of his life. On their wedding day, he lays down a contract: one year, and they keep out of each other’s way. Xu Chenghuan gladly accepts, focused on making money and building a career so she can achieve financial freedom in ancient times. But just as she uses modern knowledge to thrive in the capital, schemes in the general’s household and undercurrents at court begin to close in. Even more puzzling, why is the cold-faced general who once looked down on her staring at her so strangely? When their contract expires, he corners her against a wall and says in a husky voice, “Who said… we could cancel the agreement?”
