The year Gu Chengfeng was paralyzed, Lin Zhi's younger sister, who was engaged to him, ran away. Her family couldn't afford to repay the betrothal money, so they made Lin Zhi take her sister's place and marry Gu Chengfeng, who had been paralyzed in an accident.

Lin Zhi cared for him at the Gu home as his fiancee, but Gu Chengfeng still refused to marry her.

Later, Gu Chengfeng's legs healed. When he was able to walk again, he wanted to marry Lin Zhi, but she had already left the Gu home.

When they met again, they were both single. Gu Chengfeng married her, and for several years they treated each other with polite respect. Their life wasn't good, but it wasn't bad, either.

Then a car accident trapped them both. Lin Zhi asked Gu Chengfeng, "You married me to repay a debt of gratitude, didn't you? If we could start over, please don't marry me."

Gu Chengfeng slowly closed his eyes. "All right. If you get the chance to change your mind, make sure you live more happily than you did with me."

They made that promise to each other. But when Lin Zhi opened her eyes, she was reborn in the second year of their marriage, on the third day of their separation.

In her previous life, this separation had been the start of the rift between them. This time, Lin Zhi called Gu Chengfeng. "Honey, I'm hungry. I want something to eat."

Gu Chengfeng bought fresh meat and vegetables on his way home and cooked three dishes and a soup.

Reborn, Lin Zhi abandoned the cold war she'd waged in her previous life. She blinked her dewy eyes and said sweetly, "Honey, I've missed you so much after just one day apart."

Gu Chengfeng: ...

His coworkers discovered that their usually aloof Captain Gu spoiled his fussy little wife rotten.

Someone asked Gu Chengfeng why he was so devoted to Lin Zhi, loving her faithfully until death.

Gu Chengfeng said, "I was young and foolish. Later, I didn't know how to express myself, and I owed her so much. Only now do I understand what love feels like."

My Wife Who Died Young in the 1990s Transmigrated

Jiang Lijin had a dream. In it, her family went bankrupt, their house was seized by the court, and she was forced to drop out of school and live in a leaky bungalow. Her cousin from her uncle's family stood before her, decked out in jewelry and looking haughty.

Jiang Lijin and her cousin both had the rare panda blood type. Before giving birth, her cousin grabbed her and demanded that she donate blood. Qin Chao, a criminal police officer, saved her. Afterward, Jiang Lijin and Qin Chao married and had a son, but she died unexpectedly when their son was one month old.

When Jiang Lijin woke up, she went to find Qin Chao. The moment she knocked on his door, she transmigrated eighteen years into the future and saw the events of her dream come true. The Qin Chao of eighteen years later told her to go back and not die this time.

In the 1990s, Qin Chao's unreliable father remarried, leaving him with a pair of twin younger brothers and a little sister who had just started elementary school. Qin Chao had just started working and couldn't be in two places at once, so he hired a young nanny.

After a few days, he realized the nanny was way too bold. What kind of nanny treated her employer like her husband and ordered him around?

As soon as he got paid, the nanny took his money. His well-meaning relatives tried to set him up on a date, but the nanny at home sabotaged it. He chatted with a female classmate who'd returned from overseas, and that night he was thrown out of the house to feed the mosquitoes. His good friend teased him, "You didn't hire a nanny. You hired a sharp-tongued wife."

But Qin Chao noticed that ever since the mysterious young nanny arrived, his rebellious brothers had started listening, his introverted sister had started smiling, and he had been solving every case he took on.

The nanny said she liked him, and Qin Chao firmly turned her down once. But after they finally confirmed their relationship, he accidentally saw her holding the phone and telling the other man on the line, "When will the Qin Chao of today become you? I miss you so much."

Thinking he had been betrayed, Qin Chao trembled. "Y-You two... Who's that man?"

Caught in the act, Jiang Lijin calmly said to the Qin Chao on the other end of the phone, eighteen years in the future, "You're jealous again. Explain it to yourself."
