[Military Marriage] [Transmigrate Into a Book] [No Golden Finger]
Song Youxiang transmigrates into the body of a rich young lady, but the timing couldn't be worse. She has barely opened her eyes when her family is raided, and her parents are sentenced to hard labor on a farm.
To protect herself, she travels a thousand li to seek help from her fiancé, Zhao Huaquan.
But her fiancé avoids her, treats her with contempt, and sends his friend Liang Shiqin to meet her instead.
A month later, Zhao Huaquan breaks off their engagement.
Three days after that, Liang Shiqin comes to her and says he wants to marry her.
She thinks she has married a mild-mannered, refined officer and that they'll simply live together after marriage, respecting each other from a distance.
Who would have guessed that this gentle, scholarly man would protect her without hesitation? He shields her from every spiteful rumor outside, and at home he dotes on her so attentively that he holds her in the palm of his hand.
It turns out he had his eye on her long ago. He quietly went with the flow and encouraged his good friend to break off the engagement.
P.S. The heroine and the second male lead only had a verbal engagement.
Set in a loosely fictionalized era, with details included wherever possible.
