The 1970s: The Laid-Back Techie Army Wife Just Wants to Lie Flat

Su Nuo, a top military-industry expert of the 21st century, dies suddenly from overwork. When she opens her eyes again, she has become the notorious lazy wife in a military compound on a 1970s island.

She won’t even pick up a fallen oil bottle, makes a scene at every turn, and dares to force the dreaded “Cold-Faced Yama,” Regiment Commander Gu Hancheng, to wash her feet!

Everyone in the compound is waiting to laugh, betting that Gu Hancheng will ask for a divorce today.

When the divorce papers are handed to her, Su Nuo is overjoyed: [Wonderful! Once we’ve split the money and ration coupons, I can finally relax and live like a couch potato! Though the old radar at his base is a real mess. A simple adjustment to its frequency band would make it at least ten times more precise. Never mind, I can’t be bothered to pick up a pen...]

Gu Hancheng, his face still cold, suddenly grips the report tightly, his gaze turning dark. He can actually hear this woman’s thoughts?!

The next day, Gu Hancheng submits a set of blueprints with dark circles under his eyes, and the entire military region erupts!

After that, the people in the compound don’t see Su Nuo thrown out. Instead, they see the six-foot-two, muscle-bound officer cornering his delicate little wife against a wall.

His rough, gun-callused hand grips her slender waist as his imposing frame presses close. In a husky, enticing voice, he says, “Wifey, how do we formulate the coating for that stealth fighter? Think of another idea, and tonight I’ll wash your feet and warm your bed. I’ll even give you my life, hmm?”

Su Nuo’s eyes turn red at the corners. She kicks him petulantly. “I’m not thinking anymore! My back’s about to break!”

Later, jeeps packed with armed troops surround the military compound. The nation’s foremost experts, living national treasures, wait by Su Nuo’s bed and plead eagerly, “Engineer Su, please keep sleeping, keep dreaming! Our country’s aircraft carrier needs just one more dream from you!”
