The Foil Gives Up, and the Chaste Officer Panics

The night Song Zhiyao takes their child home to her parents' place after demanding a divorce, she has a prophetic dream and awakens on the spot!

Well, would you look at that! She's actually an idiot side character in a period novel who won't live past thirty-five, a hopeless foil who gives the heroine warmth, a husband, and even her own life! Her husband, Ji Weishen, looks like a promising, cold, abstinent professor of military engineering. But because of her reckless antics and early death, he'll grow despondent and end up as the heroine's devoted backup and stepping-stone.

How could she put up with that?

Song Zhiyao packs her things in the middle of the night and rushes back to the military compound, leaving her family stunned.

Divorce? No way! A top-tier husband with broad shoulders, long legs, a handsome face, money, and no clingy tendencies? If that lousy author doesn't want him, she does!

From then on, Song Zhiyao starts living the dream.

By day, she takes on difficult relatives, builds her career, and raises her little one, making a wonderful life for herself.

At night, she showers her supposedly unromantic husband with every kind of praise until he willingly hands over his salary card.

But what's with Professor Ji, who agreed to sleep in a separate room? He keeps sneaking into hers at night.

Song Zhiyao gives him a flirtatious look and traces circles over his firm chest with her jade-white fingertips. “Oh? Should I massage it for you?”

His eyes darken. He rolls over and pins her beneath him, his voice hoarse. “You can, but you'll have to massage somewhere else...”
