Jiang Zaoning was beautiful and delicate, with skin like jade. Unfortunately, she was in poor health and fell ill every few days.
When she got into a university in the capital, her family worried so much they couldn't sleep at night.
It was a long way from home, and she might not adjust to the climate. If she came down with so much as a headache or fever, she wouldn't even know anyone there.
Grandma Jiang: “Didn't Zaoning have an arranged marriage when she was little? The Gu family moved to the capital a few years ago. We've known each other for generations, and they're trustworthy. We don't have to bring up marriage. Surely it won't hurt to ask them to look after her?”
Jiang Zaoning took her luggage to the capital. As soon as she got off the train, she met Gu Yueshan, the “fiance” she'd heard so much about.
He was tall and stern, cold and taciturn, and looked a little scary. They'd barely met, yet he was already strict with her, telling her she couldn't go here and couldn't eat that.
After learning about their relationship, her dormmate Song Aiqin advised her: “Comrade Gu is too stern and doesn't know how to treat a woman. He's so strong, be careful he doesn't hit you someday. People believe in free love now, and there are plenty of brilliant young men chasing you. Hurry up and find someone better!”
Jiang Zaoning went back to Gu Yueshan. “Brother Gu, people believe in free love now.”
The man undid the top button of his military uniform and pulled her into his arms for a kiss. “Fine. Let's date. Let's start right now.”

Song Aiqin was reborn.
In her previous life, after she transmigrated into a book, she had been short-sighted and thought that marrying the male lead was all it would take to coast through life.
Who knew that after they married, the man would keep a tight grip on the money and fool around with other women?
Given another chance, she thought it through carefully and set her sights on Gu Yueshan.
Good family, good character, capable. He looked cold, but he spent generously and never cheated.
As for Jiang Zaoning, that sickly woman, Gu Yueshan was so strong that their marriage would surely be incompatible. She might as well take her place.
But no matter how hard she tried to steal him away, the more she worked at it, the stronger their bond seemed to become.
She watched Jiang Zaoning get healthier, succeed in her career, and even melt the icy Gu Yueshan.
Song Aiqin: “???”
