He tends a patch of countryside. She has a fortune worth hundreds of billions.
When he trades his military uniform for a hoe, he becomes the strongest man in her corner.
Su Qing never imagined she'd end up in such a sorry state.
After a week without sleep, betrayed by the business partner she trusted most, with her company's stock in freefall and the board circling like vultures, she took her therapist's advice to get away to the countryside. She clicked on a random social media post and ended up in a place called Qingshan Village.
Then her luxury car got stuck in a muddy ditch at the village entrance.
A young village Party secretary in a faded T-shirt and rolled-up pants came over. He used a few straw mats to get the car out, then handed her a crumpled business card.
“I'm the Party secretary here, Lu Chenfeng. Call ahead next time you come.”
She thought it was just a brief escape.
Until her company faced a deadly crisis. Late one night, she broke down crying helplessly and sent him a message.
He replied with just four words: “Wait there. I'm coming.”
Three days later, at a press conference, her rival publicly humiliated her. Then the man who should have been farming in the village suddenly appeared and exposed the rival's fraud on the spot with a set of data.
She began looking into his background:
A veteran, formerly with a mysterious unit. His record was completely blank.
This man, who watched the stars with her, helped resolve disputes between villagers, and made chicken soup for her, revealed another side of himself on a stormy night when mercenaries infiltrated the village.
It was a fight unlike anything she had ever seen.
He never said he loved her.
But whenever she needed him, he was there.
