Reborn in the 1980s: I'm Done Serving This Scumbag

In her previous life, Song Chuxia pawned everything she owned to put her fiancé through college, only for him and a rich heiress to conspire to kill her in the snow. Reborn in 1989, on the eve of her move to the city, she faces the scumbag as he tries to force himself on her. She gives him a swift kick where it hurts, then spends the night collecting her debts and calling off the engagement. With her first earnings in hand, she heads to Bincheng alone!

From street stalls and reworking flawed fabric to opening a clothing factory and trading goods in the south, she seizes every opportunity in the gold-rush decade of the 1980s. Armed with an information advantage, she rockets from tenant in a cramped communal apartment to the Northeast’s richest businesswoman. Her ex regrets everything and gets down on his knees to beg for another chance, only for Professor Lu, the coldest and most chaste man at Bincheng University, to kick him flying.

Lu Chenyuan pulls her into his arms, a dark tide surging in his eyes. “Student Zhang, now that you’ve met my wife, why aren’t you calling her ‘professor’s wife’?” As she rises from a self-employed vendor to the head of a business empire, the political elite’s capital in the capital comes to crush her, just as expected. How will this power couple of equally matched, ambitious schemers turn the whole game upside down?
