Heroine's blurb:
Xu Moyan, the legitimate youngest daughter of a second-rank minister in the Great Wei Dynasty, renowned for her virtue and refinement, falls gravely ill and dies. When she opens her eyes, she finds herself in a strange and unfamiliar world.
Women here can wear little camisoles that show their arms and navels, or hot pants so short they barely cover their thighs. They can swagger down the street dressed like that and somehow not get beaten to death.
Women here can marry if they want to, or just "date" if they don't. If they get tired of a man, they can even switch to another one.
Women here can also watch something called TV dramas, where they can see men and women doing this and that... It's even more vivid and sensual than the storybooks she's read.
Xu Moyan, a young woman from ancient times for twenty years, can hardly stop herself from laughing at the heavens. At last, she's become Heaven's favorite daughter and arrived in a wonderful era.
What a wonderful era.
Until one day... she gets a boyfriend...
Then she finds out, bah! It's all nonsense!
Hero's blurb:
Han Yue happens to pick up a sweet, naive girl. At first, he thinks she's unbelievably good at playing dumb and acting clueless. He just wants to see how silly she can pretend to be.
Who knew she really was as silly as she seemed?
So silly that he starts finding her more and more annoying.
Until one day.
Watching himself get treated more and more coldly, he finally can't take it anymore and secretly checks his girlfriend's phone.
The little pink phone is packed with several explicit Western movies, along with a list in an app called Little Green River containing a dozen steamy romance novels.
Han Yue presses his lips together. What he finds even harder to accept is that she has written detailed analyses of the fictional characters' romances for every novel, explaining each kiss with more than ten idioms.
What really shatters his worldview is that she even shared them with his younger sister. So why didn't she just share this stuff with him? Is he not good enough? Hah...
Later, Xu Moyan notices her boyfriend looking at her more and more strangely. Then one day, she accidentally sees his search and browsing history:
1. Why does my girlfriend like watching movies and reading novels about that stuff?
2. If she wants to try it, why doesn't she just come to me?
3. So why would she rather share it with her sister-in-law than with her boyfriend???
Suddenly, someone behind her snatches the phone away and says in a chilling voice, "So, do you even know who your boyfriend is?"
