In 2025, Xin Lin and Chen Yu were swindled out of everything they owned by the friends they trusted most, leaving them drowning in debt.
On their way to collect what they were owed, they got into a car accident.
When Xin Lin opened her eyes again, she was back in 1998, a newborn baby. A System had appeared in her mind. Its first rule: The Host must never reveal their identity to anyone, including their spouse.
Her husband, Chen Yu, had also returned. He had come back a year and nine months before her, with nothing to his name and no System. All he had to rely on was the hard-earned experience of being burned in their previous life.
Chen Yu didn’t know Xin Lin had been reborn. But Xin Lin didn’t know Chen Yu had been reborn either.
So one pretended to be a child prodigy, the other a simple, honest man. One secretly sabotaged their enemies, while the other quietly laid plans. The couple lived in different counties, neither knowing the other was doing the very same thing.
Li Qiang, the man who had swindled them out of everything in their previous life, was still just a snot-nosed kid.
Looking at Chen Yu’s location on the System’s screen, Xin Lin thought, “Husband, wait for me.”
Looking at the map and the county where Xin Lin was, Chen Yu thought, “Wife, I won’t let you suffer again this time.”
But neither of them knew that the other was waiting, too.
