A Clear-Eyed College Girl in the 1960S

【1.4 million words and counting, plenty to binge】 A sweet but clueless college girl travels back to 1958 with the Pinduoduo shopping app, where the coal mine director's son falls for her and insists he will marry no one else. He pursues her openly and loves her wholeheartedly, but all she wants is to scrape through three years of famine and ten years of chaos with Pinduoduo. She turns a blind eye to his ardent devotion. Then the tide turns. The mine director's whole family is sent down to a rural labor camp. The boy who was once the center of everyone's attention falls into the dirt overnight, becoming one of the despised “Black Categories” whom anyone can bully. His pride shattered, he no longer dares to look her in the eye. Worried about how to dodge her family's pressure to marry, Lu Honglian sees her chance and swears in front of the whole family: “I, Lu Honglian, will marry no one but Xie Panshi!” Everyone who knows the truth sighs at her devotion, calling her love profound, steadfast, and unbreakable. To make the act convincing, she has no choice but to keep visiting the desolate labor camp to see the young man who has curled up in the shadows. Xie Panshi doesn't understand. He spent his whole youth chasing her without getting any response. Now he's covered in mud, humbled to the point of groveling, so why does she keep coming closer? In silence, he accepts the supplies she has “scrounged together”: thick cotton clothes, sweet candies, and medicine that saves his life when a high fever leaves him near death. Her eyes hold pity, concern, and anxiety, but not the love he has spent half his life hoping for. That realization is colder than the labor camp's biting wind, yet in his dead heart, it also kindles a dangerous flame of resentment. He waits patiently, like a beast lying in ambush. “Lu Honglian, you said you'd marry no one but me. I believed you.” Reborn from the mire, the first thing he does is tenderly hunt down his “savior.” Theme: Even barren soil can bloom with flowers.
