After a Fake Marriage and Joining the Army, the Rough-Hewn Officer Refuses to Divorce

[Period setting + sweet romance + military life + love that grows over time + pampered heiress]

After her family fell on hard times, Su Wanyin took the surviving pages of her father’s diary and headed for the Qinglan Desert. She became the daughter of a “black category” family, at constant risk of being sent back for reform through labor. To stay alive, she entered into a marriage of convenience with Lu Zheng, a rugged officer who had returned from military service, and they pretended to be a loving couple.

To clear her family’s name, she took charge of accounting projections in the logistics department. With astonishing mental arithmetic and her ability to identify ink, she used the body of a pampered heiress to dismantle a web of corruption one step at a time.

Just as the deputy section chief of logistics plotted to destroy the evidence in a fire and ordered a forged marriage certificate to have her killed, Su Wanyin publicly pointed out that the kerosene smell on his cuff came from the same source. Using an old copper key to open a compartment in a train car, she uncovered the corrupt accounts and turned the tables on the spot.

Everyone was waiting for them to divorce when their two-year agreement expired. Little did they know that on a night when the desert was blanketed in wind and snow, the long-restrained man would corner her and hold her by the waist, his voice husky and seductive. “Wifey, how about we trade in the fake certificate for a real one?”
