Su Yuyan transmigrated to the past to combat desertification, never expecting to become an exiled criminal slave instead of a princess!
She nearly died as soon as she woke up. Endless desert, a dilapidated hut, no water or food…
Her backpack had originally contained a seed bank of top-quality plants for desert control, but the transmigration took a heavy toll, leaving her with just one ordinary cactus.
To survive, she had no choice but to rely on General Xiao.
But the original owner had once called off their engagement, enraging Xiao so much that he shot an arrow through the divorce papers and into the gate of her family home…
In other words, he was her ex-boyfriend, and their breakup had been spectacularly ugly…
At their first meeting, Xiao Jin told his personal guard, “Leave her to fend for herself.”
Fortunately, Su Yuyan knew how to grow cacti. Not only did she save her own life, she also got Xiao Jin to assign her a test plot and workers, and began transforming the desert!
Just as she was about to start planting cacti on a large scale, she fell into a centurion’s trap and was sent to Xiao Jin’s bed.
Xiao Jin looked coldly at her, clad in nothing but a thin veil. “Even if you can’t stop thinking about me, Director Su, there’s no need to resort to this.”
Then… “Su Yuyan, who was the one saying she didn’t want me, then clinging to me and refusing to let go?”
The northern frontier coveted the cacti and demanded that Su Yuyan go there for a political marriage.
Su Yuyan figured she could grow cacti and transform deserts anywhere, so why not go? She might even help bring about peace.
Xiao Jin was furious. “You wouldn’t marry me, but you’ll go marry him? Is it because he’s a prince?”
Su Yuyan wanted to say that she had transmigrated here and they were speaking at cross-purposes. “My affairs are none of your concern!”
Xiao Jin hoisted her up and tossed her onto the bed. “I won’t let you marry anyone else.”
In the end, peace returned to the frontier, friendly relations began, and cacti spread across the desert. They even discovered an underground river.
But General Xiao kept sneaking off at night. Whenever anyone asked, he’d say he’d gone to check on the cacti again.
Director Su also kept sleeping until late morning. Whenever anyone asked, she’d say she’d spent the night thinking about ways to combat desertification.
The refugees and townsfolk praised them: “General Xiao and Director Su truly work through the night for the cause of fighting desertification.”
The hard part wasn’t figuring out how to build an industry around cacti and defend the frontier.
It was dealing with the ice-cold General Xiao, who kept sneaking into her room in the middle of the night and staring at Su Yuyan. “Tell me, are you still unable to stop thinking about me?”
“General, all I want is to grow cacti. I have absolutely no feelings for you!”
Why did the General look so furious…
“I’m telling the truth!”
“I don’t believe you.” General Xiao scooped Su Yuyan up in his arms. “Was I not enough for you?”
