[Period, Rugged Hero, Sweet Romance, Mutual Devotion, Intimacy Before Love]
Su Wan is widowed on her wedding day, becoming an easy target for everyone in the crowded courtyard. Her vicious mother-in-law wants to pocket the compensation money and sell her to the old bachelor at the head of the village, while the neighbors call her a husband-killing jinx. Just when she’s at her lowest, Qin Lie, the transport team’s fiercest “Living Yama,” the man who once made her tremble with fear, climbs through her window in the middle of the night!
The man looms over her like a small mountain. His rough hands wipe away her tears, his gaze fierce and burning. “What are you crying for? I’m not dead yet. The sky isn’t falling!”
Everyone waits for Su Wan to make a fool of herself, certain she’ll be thrown out of the courtyard. But they wait and wait, only to see Qin Lie driving up in a truck, hauling load after load of fine flour, a sewing machine, a radio, and more into Su Wan’s home…
And that vicious mother-in-law everyone fears? Qin Lie beats her down until she’s on her knees begging for mercy!
Late at night, Su Wan rubs her aching waist and looks at the tall, brawny man built like an ox. She can only cry in frustration. “Brother Qin, could you go a little easier…?”
Qin Lie chuckles and pulls her even closer. “Bear with it. I’ve been saving up thirty years’ worth of energy, all for you.”
