Her pretty-boy husband stands before Zhou Hui with his arm around a female classmate from the city. "We're the ones who truly love each other."

After the divorce, her ex-husband puts on a show of devotion. "Zhou Hui, I know you have nowhere to go. You can keep living in the countryside with my parents. We can divorce without you moving out."

Zhou Hui: So you want me to be your free nanny.

You think I'm crude and uneducated, but I think you're frail and living off women.

Back to the 1980s to Marry My Ex-Husband's Mortal Enemy

Everyone says Zhou Ruonan is lucky. A village girl who married a city man, she became a famous rich wife across the surrounding towns and villages. Even though she never had a child, her husband never divorced her. Even her family, both openly and behind her back, told her to be content.

Outsiders envy her glamorous life, but Zhou Ruonan can only smile bitterly.

Her mother-in-law is picky, her sister-in-law is difficult, and her brother's wife makes snide remarks. The model husband everyone admires is actually gone every night, and has even fathered an illegitimate child.

Zhou Ruonan doesn't want to put up with it anymore. Just as she's about to confront her husband's family, she wakes up one night back in the 1980s.

Only, the 1980s she remembers have changed beyond recognition.

Her ex-husband is engaged to her younger sister, making him her brother-in-law.

And she is dating her ex-husband's mortal enemy.

Everything Zhou Ruonan knows about Jiang Chen comes from her ex-husband, Wang Hengshun.

According to Wang Hengshun, Jiang Chen is a treacherous, deceitful little hoodlum who refuses to do an honest day's work.

So when Zhou Ruonan first meets Jiang Chen, she is extremely wary and keeps as far away from him as possible.

Only after she gradually gets to know him does she learn that her ex-husband twisted the truth.

Ex-husband: "Jiang Chen never does a day's work. He just wanders around all day."

In fact, Jiang Chen has been building a business in secret and is already a ten-thousand-yuan household.

Ex-husband: "Jiang Chen is treacherous and deceitful. He's always plotting dirty tricks."

In fact, Jiang Chen is brave and resourceful in business, while her ex-husband can only suffer in silence.

Ex-husband: "Jiang Chen has loose morals and is surrounded by women."

In fact, Jiang Chen is faithful and devoted to his wife alone for decades.

Her reborn younger sister looks at the husband she stole, then at her older sister's life, which is even more prosperous than it was in her previous life, and seethes with frustration.

Why isn't anything going the way we agreed?

Winning One Billion and Keeping My Junior

On the eve of her wedding, Fang Juexia gets cheated on, then unexpectedly wins one billion yuan.

The first thing she does is dump the scumbag.

The second, of course, is quit her job and lie flat.

With a billion in assets, she has to experience the joys of being a rich woman.

She buys two luxury homes, lives in one and flips the other.

She buys two luxury cars, drives one and keeps the other for show.

The life of the rich is just so dull and boring.

Her best friend advises her to keep a sports major, and find out just how much fun a rich woman's pleasure ball can be.

Fang Juexia sets her sights on a sports major with a slim waist, long legs, and a handsome face.

She secretly slips him an ad. "Hey, do you need a place to live? Three bedrooms and a living room, all appliances included, utilities covered, just one thousand a month."

The young athlete's smile is dazzling. "Sis, it's so cheap. You're not going to harvest my kidneys, are you?"

Fang Juexia puts on a solemn expression. "I'm an honest woman."

Yet honest Sister Fang can't stop sneaking glances at his eight-pack abs.

The athlete pretends not to notice and innocently signs the rental agreement.

With handsome company every day, Fang Juexiao is having the time of her life.

But the athlete gets greedy and tries to get out of paying.

"Sis, I can't afford the rent. Can I pay you back with my body? I have strong kidneys."

Fang Juexia: If you weren't dressed head to toe in designer brands, I'd believe you.

He's happy, she's happy, but Sister Fang has a problem.

Feeling listless and physically exhausted, Fang Juexia decides to protect her health.

While the athlete is away for winter break, she sends him a long message ending their rental agreement.

Who knew the athlete would compete in a world-class tournament over winter break,

then use his gold medal to declare his love for her to the whole world?

After reading her message, the athlete corners Fang Juexia against a wall and grits his teeth. "I hear I'm just your tenant?"

Marrying a Lazy Man in the 1980s

Xia Lan, a successful female CEO, wakes up one day as Xia Lanlan, a young farm wife in the 1980s.

After working hard for over a decade, she's back to square one overnight.

Looking at the bare, mud-walled house and touching her tender cheeks, Xia Lan decides it's no big deal.

With her youth on her side, it's only a matter of time before she makes a comeback.

Then she looks at her young husband's handsome face and smiles with satisfaction.

A handsome face and a great figure: he's worth a bowl of rice to live off.

When she first meets Shen Mingbei, Xia Lanlan mistakes him for a delicate flower, too weak to carry a load or lift a finger.

Luckily, what everyone else sees as flaws are strengths in Xia Lanlan's eyes.

Villagers: Shen Mingbei is so pale and fine-skinned. How can he compare to the butcher Wang next door, with his square face and dark complexion?

Xia Lanlan smiles: His features are so well-defined and his skin so fair. Just looking at him makes me want to eat two bowls of rice.

Villagers: Shen Mingbei is lazy and idle, and the only good thing about him is his silver tongue.

Xia Lanlan nods: He's flexible, sweet-talking, obedient, and as sweet as a puppy.

Villagers: Shen Mingbei spends all day following his wife around and only ever listens to her. He's going nowhere.

Xia Lanlan is astonished: That's possible?

Reborn, Xia Lanlan is perfectly happy with a life where her husband lives off her. Little does she know her delicate-flower husband is about to rebel.

What?

You want to go out and earn money?

Xia Lanlan is horrified. What if the sun ruins your smooth skin?

Shen Mingbei is the most famous lazy man for miles around.

The villagers laugh at him, his brothers look down on him, and even his parents have kicked him out.

Everyone in the village treats him like a joke and wonders when he'll starve to death.

They wait and wait, until one day they suddenly discover that...

The village's lazy man isn't lazy anymore. He's become the richest man in the city.
