After Dumping My Ex-Husband, Did a Rough-and-Tumble Officer Fall for Me?

[Feel-good story] [Face-slapping] [Military marriage] [Rugged man] [The heroine doesn't take things lying down]

Reborn in the 1970s, Gu Linlang doesn't cry or make a fuss when her fiance is stolen. Instead, she turns around and "stages an accident" with her ex-fiance's mortal enemy, the border garrison's living demon, Li Zhanting!

"Comrade, you have to take responsibility for me."

The entire military region thinks she's crazy and waits for that demon to throw her out. Who would have thought the living demon would accept her and spoil the pampered young lady like a treasure?

Her former fiance regrets everything and blocks her path. "Linlang, come with me. That big oaf can't make you happy."

Before Gu Linlang can answer, the six-foot-two man steps in front of her, his iron fist cracking as he clenches it. "My wife? You think you're worthy of even wanting her?"

Later, the rugged man's true identity is revealed: he's someone even the people of the capital look up to. Only then does Pei Jingzhou realize he didn't lose a nuisance. He lost the most dazzling treasure in the world, and his chance to rise to the top overnight.

The rugged Li Zhanting is the sworn brother-in-arms of the Pei family's late second son, and the most untouchable demon on the border. He looks at the soft, fragrant beauty in his arms, his brow furrowed so deeply it could crush a fly.

The whole military region waits to see Gu Linlang make a fool of herself, betting she won't last a day. But they wait and wait, and all they see is the living demon spoiling the willful young lady rotten. He brings her water to wash her face in the morning, warms her bed at night, and keeps her close to his heart, letting no one lay a finger on her.

Only Gu Linlang knows how scorching the possessiveness that surges in the man's wolf-like eyes is, every night. She also knows that this "rugged man" whom everyone looks down on is the true match sent by heaven, powerful enough to shield her from every storm!
