Period setting, powerful family, sweet romance, no rural relocation
A haughty, pampered heiress who means to reel people in but doesn’t realize she’s doing it VS a scheming, seasoned official who fails to hook her and gets hooked instead
Note: She only raises one fish, the male lead (hooking him, getting hooked, then hooking him again)
In her previous life, she was a spoiled heiress who made life difficult for everyone. Reborn in the 1970s, when food and clothing were scarce, she suddenly awakens her past-life memories and feels the sky come crashing down. Everything about this life is great, except there’s no extra food to be had!
Xu Jin’an decides to raise fish and make them bring her offerings!
Unfortunately, one guy offers her an egg and immediately wants to discuss marriage; another treats her to a dish and expects her to wait on his whole family. She turns tail and runs.
Just when she hits a dead end, she finds a handsome, devilishly charming fish who loves to feed her and is especially generous!
She decides on the spot to reel him in and have a short-term romance they both understand perfectly well.
After all her efforts, she finally succeeds in winning him over. She hasn’t had her fill of taking advantage of him when her mother suddenly tells her to go on a blind date.
She hesitates for three seconds, then regretfully breaks up with him.
After all, a handsome fish is only a short-term meal ticket. She can’t afford to miss out on a meal ticket for life.
She thinks she has everything under control, unaware that the fish is waiting for her to swim right into his net.
And she has no idea this is a crazy fish, one she should never have provoked!
