[Period setting + going to the countryside + spatial storage + spiritual spring + cutting ties with family + everyday family life + man pursues woman]
Lin Wan transmigrates into a period novel as the fake heiress with the same name, raised by the family for eighteen years. In the book, she’s a rebellious villainess destined to freeze to death in the snowy wilderness of Mohe.
She does three things: cuts ties with her family, stocks up on supplies, and waits for the winds of change.
But she manages to sidestep every plot point except one: her seemingly cold and distant fiancé, Gu Zeye. He comes to the same village and tells her, standing in the heavy snow, “I won’t look at you. If you fall, I’ll catch you.”
Bonus scene:
“Zeye-ge...”
His voice carries a hint of helplessness. “You’re putting on an act again.”
“When am I putting on an act?” The young woman’s voice is light and airy, with the faintest hint of sweetness.
Lin Wan leans back and lifts a hand to tuck a loose strand of hair behind her ear. Her wrist passes right in front of his eyes, startlingly pale. “Am I not calling for you?”
His gaze lingers on her wrist for a moment, then moves away.
“You’re acting strange today.”
Lin Wan pauses, her eyes deep and unreadable. “How am I acting strange?”
“You never used to...” He pauses. “You never used to look at me like that.”
