[1970s + reborn + both virgins, sweet romance + height difference + age gap + rugged military officer x sweet, well-behaved girl]
In her previous life, Shen Zhiyu was sent down to the countryside with her parents. Because of her stunning beauty, she drew the attention of vile men. Her parents died protecting her, and she endured endless humiliation before dying full of hatred.
Only as she lay dying did she meet the man who should have protected her all her life: Jiang Lichuan.
But it was too late. He arrived too late and found only her cold corpse.
Reborn, she returns to the time before she was sent down!
This time, Shen Zhiyu takes matters into her own hands. Following her father's instructions, she travels a thousand miles to a military district in the northwest to find the cold, tough, intimidating officer. Bluntly cashing in on the life debt, she says, "Comrade Jiang, it's time to repay your debt. Marry me."
Jiang Lichuan is the most feared officer in the northwestern military district. Cold and taciturn, he had planned never to marry, but the young woman who suddenly appears in his life turns everything upside down.
Out of gratitude for her saving his life, he agrees to the marriage despite the pressure, but lays down the law before the wedding: "After we marry, we'll stay out of each other's way. I'll keep you safe, and that's all."
He thinks this will be a marriage in name only, never expecting his frozen heart to fall into chaos the moment the sweet, gentle girl draws near.
Once an old house catches fire, it quickly becomes impossible to put out, and he throws every promise he made to the wind.
"Shen Zhiyu, you won't escape me in this life. I'll protect your safety and your happiness."
It turns out his savior didn't just save his life. She also brought the most precious woman in the world to his side.
Both virgins, no angst, sweet romance from beginning to end. This rugged officer spoils his wife without limit, and the reborn good girl becomes the apple of his eye. ✨
