[1980s + Spoiled Gold-Digger + Tough on the Outside, Soft on the Inside + Hong Kong Tycoon's Heir Becomes Her Dog]
Su Qiao awakens to the truth. She discovers that she's the villainous ex-wife in a period novel, the one who drains the male lead of his money and vitality.
Her dirt-poor, rough-hewn husband, Ji Weiting, hauls heavy loads at the docks.
In the future, he'll save a Hong Kong tycoon and be adopted as his son, inheriting a fortune!
In the book, her entire family are terrible villains, and he eventually leaves them utterly ruined.
Su Qiao packs her bags that very night, planning to run away.
Divorce! They have to get divorced! But the man clutches their marriage certificate tightly against his chest.
When she pushes him too far, the 6'1" hulking man with muscles like a bodybuilder blocks her behind the door, eyes red-rimmed.
"Wife, you think I'm poor? When we ate meat yesterday, why didn't you complain I was useless? Hmm?"
Looking at his intensely possessive gaze and the abs he's deliberately showing off, Su Qiao swallows.
It's obvious he really wants to kill her!
Later, when the original heroine appears, Su Qiao doesn't even bother with her household registration booklet. She grabs his ration coupons and cash tickets and runs away in the dead of night.
She barely gets out the door before the man throws her over his shoulder. Smack! He spanks her. "Wife, we've cleared out the whole house, so how could you leave your husband behind?"
"Ji Weiting, you bastard... Mmph!" (He shuts her up with a kiss.)
"Honey, I won't do it again..." (He shuts her up again.)
Later, Ji Weiting figures out how to handle his little wife. He ties the ration coupons and cash tickets around her waist, then ties her to his own.
Want to run? Not a chance.
Su Qiao: "Master Ji! A melon forced from the vine won't be sweet!"
Ji Weiting: "Mrs. Ji, whether it's sweet or not, I'll pick it with my own hands and eat it with my own mouth. You have only one option: widowhood, not divorce."
