Tong Yao, a charming young woman from the seventies, travels a thousand miles to an island to hold on tight to Xu Ji, her cold, aloof regiment commander, and his steady paycheck. She came for his allowance, but the iron-blooded commander pampers her like royalty. She takes on the scheming green-tea girls and handles the troublesome relatives, while doing all the laundry and cooking, and he turns her every bit of "delicateness" into a privilege reserved just for her. What begins as chasing money turns into genuine love. She wins at life, pampered to the bone, while the cold commander becomes a doting husband. Sweet and satisfying in spades.
