The female protagonist, Tang Jin, transmigrates to a military compound in 1985, starting with a terrible hand. She becomes a "public nuisance" everyone avoids, causing so much trouble that her husband is on the verge of divorce.

Tang Jin, of course, doesn't want a divorce and starts feigning amnesia to seduce him. But this abstinent military officer husband is a picture of chastity, completely unmoved.

But then, fortunes turn, and her previously calm and abstinent husband suddenly "turns into a wolf," resolutely refusing to agree to a divorce!
