When Lu Xue woke up, she found herself back on her wedding night with her ex-husband. She wasted no time in running away from the wedding, climbing into her ex-husband's cousin Zhou Yu's car and escaping to Lancheng.
Zhou Yu offered her a generous salary to stay on as his housekeeper, but his mother didn't want her around. Lu Xue worked diligently to save enough for tuition and living expenses. Just as she had finally saved enough to make her dream of college come true, her ex-husband reported her to the school for fraudulently marrying him, and she was expelled.
With old and new grudges piled up, she stopped running and chose to take her revenge. She ruined the good job her ex-husband wanted. They wanted to move to the new district? Not a chance. He wanted to marry into a rich family as a live-in son-in-law? She would expose him for who he really was.
As he went along with her schemes, Zhou Yu watched her turn a blind eye to his feelings, and his sincere love went unreturned. Heartbroken, he turned Lu Xue's face toward him. "Honey, look at me. Let's not waste time on scumbags. Why don't you marry me and let us live a good life together?"
Lu Xue was so frightened that she ran away overnight.
Zhou Yu tracked her down in the countryside, but Lu Xue rejected him again.
"Zhou Yu, we're not the same kind of people. I like farming, and you like climbing the ladder. We're not right for each other."
"Who says? I like farming too. How about I spend every season and every meal by your side?"
