The 1970s: After I Married Someone Else to Bring Him Luck, My Former Fiancé Regretted It

Luo Chuning has known since childhood that she would marry Qiao Yunqing. She has pursued him for over a decade, and just when they’re about to register their marriage, he keeps putting it off for someone else.

Watching Qiao Yunqing abandon her for someone else yet again, Luo Chuning doesn’t hesitate. She goes straight to the Qiao family to call off the engagement.

If Qiao Yunqing doesn’t care about her, then she doesn’t want him either. Luo Chuning marries someone else.

When Qiao Yunqing returns and learns she has married another man, his eyes go bloodshot as he drops to his knees and begs her to take him back.

“Chuning, I thought you’d wait for me. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have refused to register our marriage first. I regret it.”

The girl who used to be so sweet and obedient around him says nothing. Instead, the man beside her glances at Qiao Yunqing, a smile curling at his lips as he gazes at the girl affectionately. “Qiao Yunqing, you’re only regretting it now? Too bad. It’s too late.”

Luo Chuning looks at Gu Zhixu, surprise flashing in her eyes.

What began as a marriage of necessity has given her the security she wanted.

At first, she was looking for someone to protect her, while he needed a bride to bring him good fortune.

Everyone waits to laugh at her, saying she was foolish to end her engagement to the Qiao family and marry a sickly man who was on the verge of death.

Maybe the marriage really did bring him good fortune. The day after she married him, Gu Zhixu’s health improved considerably.

Everyone waits for Luo Chuning to regret her decision. But as time goes by, Gu Zhixu only gets healthier, and he gives Luo Chuning everything she wants.

Years later, Luo Chuning lies on the sofa, rubbing her aching waist as she watches Gu Zhixu play with the children. She feels a little dazed. She never imagined that an impulsive decision to marry him would lead to him loving her so deeply. Everything about him is wonderful, except that he can hardly bear to be apart from her.
