[Reborn Face-Slapping + Career and Studies + No Going to the Countryside + Male Lead, but Few Scenes]
Lin Yijun is pretty and hardworking, yet her family treats her like a punching bag and a walking cash machine.
Her sister steals the secure job she earned, her brother sells her off for a hefty bride price, her mother curses her as a bad-luck orphan who brings death to her relatives, and her married sister treats her like a free servant, working her to the bone.
In the end, she’s drained of all value and left with nothing but illness, dying alone in the bitter winter.
She wakes up in the height of summer, back in 1975, and the family’s old workhorse finally snaps out of it.
When her sister tries to steal her job, she fires back with a letter of denunciation: “Going to the countryside is an honor. This good fortune is yours.”
When her older brother tries to sell her for a high bride price, she turns around and reports him: “Comrade officer, someone here is arranging a forced marriage.”
Her mother wails and curses her for having no conscience?
Lin Yijun sneers. “Conscience? Can you eat it?”
She dumps the toxic relatives, gets into college, and builds a career, making herself into a legend no one can replicate.
But why does the stern police officer who always appears when she’s in danger look at her with an ever more intense gaze?
