After the Divorce, I Married My Ex-Husband’s Archrival (The 1970s)

In her previous life, Ji Yaohong was envied by everyone for her whole life. She was just a village girl, yet she had a tall, handsome husband who was a government official, a clever and lively son, and in-laws who arranged a job for her. She lived a life of ease and comfort.

But only Ji Yaohong knew how miserable she was. Her husband had a childhood sweetheart who had once saved his life. To repay her, he gave the childhood sweetheart his wages and all his free time. Even the son Ji Yaohong had raised with such hard work kept saying he loved the childhood sweetheart and wanted to be her son.

Ji Yaohong endured this misery for her whole life, until it finally killed her.

When she opened her eyes again, she found herself back in the year her son had just turned three.

Looking at her son throwing a tantrum because he wanted to see his childhood sweetheart, and her husband nowhere to be found, Ji Yaohong, who had spent her whole life swallowing her feelings, had had enough.

She wanted a divorce. She was getting a divorce.

But her ex-husband had no intention of letting go of Ji Yaohong, his live-in nanny who even earned her own wages.

Desperate to get a divorce, Ji Yaohong impulsively got involved with her ex-husband's sworn enemy.

She'd only done it to get a divorce, but she never expected that one impulsive move would last a lifetime.

Qin Ji'an, who had already waited 1,356 days for Ji Yaohong: Hah! It took me this long to finally get her home. There's no way she'll get rid of me, not in this life, the next, or even in her dreams.
