Period romance + sweet indulgence + love that deepens over time + voluptuous beauty + devoted to each other. A strapping, rugged neighbor versus a delicate, alluring young bride.
Ruan Mianmian is a little stutterer with a lovely, blushing face and a curvaceous figure, but after her scummy city fiancé schemes to break off their engagement, she becomes the village laughingstock. Everyone thinks she'll fall apart and try to kill herself. Instead, Huo Ye, the cold-faced, fearsome man who just returned from military service, corners her in the sweet potato field.
The man's shoulders are broad, his waist narrow, and his eyes as fierce as a wolf's. Gripping her slender waist, he pins her against a tree trunk and says hoarsely, “He doesn't want you? I do. From now on, I'll give you my life and my money. How about you come with me?”
Terrified, Ruan Mianmian stammers, “N-no... Y-you're too fierce...”
Huo Ye chuckles and bites her lip. “It's all right if you stutter, sweetheart. Just make sure you know how to cry when we're in bed.”
She thought marrying a poor, rough country man would mean scraping by on meager meals, but Huo Ye spoils her rotten! Ruan Mianmian also relies on her intelligence to put awful people in their place, make a fortune, and get into college! When her scummy ex-fiancé sees Ruan Mianmian shining brighter than ever and kneels, regretting everything and begging to get back together, Huo Ye hefts a shovel and sneers, “If you dare covet my sweetheart, I'll scatter your ashes to the wind!”
