When Xu Anning opens her eyes, she finds herself as the cannon-fodder wife who dies early in a period novel.
In the original story, the heroine frames her military officer husband over the illegitimate child her childhood sweetheart, the male lead, has kept hidden. In the end, he sells her to a remote mountain village, where she is abused and dies a terrible death.
After being driven mad and turning dark, her military officer husband, Wei Luxiao, becomes the biggest help to the male and female leads in their romance and careers. Even after helping them shine, he cannot escape a fate of being abandoned by everyone and left with a ruined reputation.
She has arrived at the exact moment the original heroine is threatening to kill herself unless her husband registers the illegitimate child of her childhood sweetheart, Zhou Yihui, under his household.
To avoid her tragic fate, Xu Anning turns around and sends the original male lead to prison.
But she overdoes it and breaks the System. She becomes the benefactor of a renowned professor, the best friend of the richest man in the country, and the beloved little wife of a high-ranking officer.
When they first meet, she is his younger brother’s fiancée, yet she ends up in his bed on the night of the engagement banquet. Forced to marry her, Wei Luxiao hates it: “Divorce. We have to get divorced as soon as possible!”
After they have been married for a while, Wei Luxiao realizes his wife is becoming more and more dazzling.
He is so terrified that he wants to carry their marriage certificate around every day and cling to her every minute. “Honey, how did I do today? Have I earned the right to be acknowledged as your husband?”
