In 2025, top police tactical officer Lin Wei is on a mission when an informant inside the police station leaks their intelligence, leaving her entire team surrounded. As she lies dying from a gunshot wound, she unexpectedly activates the Time-Travel Comeback System. When she opens her eyes, she has transmigrated to 1970, in the Hongxing Production Brigade, as a sent-down educated youth who can barely lift a finger.
Faced with barren yellow earth, exhausting farm labor, and the scheming “green tea” rival Li Juan, Lin Wei rolls up her sleeves and starts fighting her way to the top. Her tactical training makes farm work a breeze, and her modern knowledge solves the brigade’s problems. Then she spots the cool, brilliant educated youth Shen Zhiqing at a glance. This is the man she’s going to pursue!
But the road to love is full of complications: “Green tea” Li Juan plays the helpless victim to win sympathy, the second male lead who covets Shen Zhiqing keeps tripping them up, and the original owner’s messes come back to haunt her. Lin Wei hits back hard, protects Shen Zhiqing, puts the worst offenders in their place, and builds up their savings, never realizing that the reserved Shen Zhiqing has already fallen for her lively warmth.
When Shen Zhiqing finally gets a spot to return to the city, everyone assumes they’ll have to part ways. Instead, he grips Lin Wei’s hand and says, “You can go back to the city, but you’re coming with me.” The policewoman has transmigrated fifty years into the past. Now she must not only uncover the connection to the informant from her previous life, but also spoil her cool, rugged husband rotten!
