Stumping the Southern Sweethearts

After her parents died suddenly, Lin Luxi was left not with warmth and affection, but with greedy relatives like wolves and tigers and suffocating schemes. Once she heard the truth about their plans to seize her inheritance and arrange a marriage for profit at the funeral hall, the seemingly gentle Lin Luxi made the most decisive choice: run! She flew alone to a distant, icy city, where, amid a raging snowstorm, she crashed straight into the arms of a northeastern man named Shen Kuo. Like a walking heater, he was warmhearted and forthright, and insisted on “rescuing” her from the cold. Fate had a sense of humor: the heavily secured villa she bought outright turned out to be right next door to Shen Kuo's home! From then on, the gentle Jiangnan girl began a life of being thoroughly doted on in the Northeast. Shen's mother kept her well fed, Shen's father offered steady protection, and Shen Kuo, a big-hearted northeastern man who would fiercely stand up for her, cherished her to his very bones. When her awful relatives came after her again, making a scene and refusing to give up, Lin Luxi no longer backed down. Behind her stood the Shen parents, ready to unleash their full force, and her righteous neighbors; at her side stood Shen Kuo, unwavering in his support. In the frozen snow, she calmly declared, “You and I have nothing to do with each other anymore!” From escaping a den of wolves to finding warm love, from being all alone to being surrounded by affection, Lin Luxi found a home in the icy city and lived a wonderful life of her own, blending the best of north and south.
