The male lead is a senior engineer with a leg problem, but comes from a wealthy family. The female lead is incredibly beautiful from the countryside, and the male lead, being a womanizer, falls for her at first sight, thinking he's married a beautiful and virtuous wife. However, the female lead is controlled by the plot, doing nothing, neglecting the children, and spending all her time imitating the fashion of an old woman in a melodramatic drama. The opening scene shows the female lead running back to her parents' home to demand a divorce, but then she suddenly has a dream and wakes up, breaking free from the plot's control.

    This isn't a wish-fulfillment novel; it's a mirror. It reflects the struggles of ordinary people, the harshness of fate, and the real, blood-and-tears stories that truly happened on the black soil of Northeast China. It adds a literary footnote to the currently booming cities of Harbin, Shenyang, and Jilin. There are no domineering CEOs here, only a young man named Chen Mo, struggling to survive in the mud. He may not be "perfect": he might count to three and let you run, but he might also knock you down by the time he counts to one. This book is dedicated to all readers who are tired of fabricated plots and dare to face the cruelty of reality. If you like domineering CEOs and sweet, wish-fulfillment novels, you can turn right now. Praise or criticize as you please.
