The Runaway Bride of the Seventies Changes Her Mind

Xu Wan opened her eyes and found herself transmigrated into a book. Not only had she landed in the hardship-filled 1970s, she had become a pretty but brainless cannon-fodder supporting character.

In the book, the original Xu Wan didn't want to follow her newlywed husband to a bitterly cold posting, so she ran away on their wedding night. Her in-laws were injured while searching for her.

Zhou Huaichen was reborn on his wedding day.

He learned that his bride couldn't stand him and didn't want to follow him to his post. She was going to run away that very night.

In his previous life, her escape had sent the whole family out looking for her. His mother broke her leg and was left with a lasting injury.

His father was bitten by a snake and nearly died.

So this time, he decided not to bother with Xu Wan. If she wanted to run, let her.

Xu Wan arrived just as the original Xu Wan was getting ready to flee with her bundle. She looked out at the pitch-black night, where distant trees looked like human silhouettes, and hurriedly crawled back into bed, pulling the covers over herself from head to toe.

She wasn't going anywhere. She'd die if she ran out there.

Zhou Huaichen knew Xu Wan had already run away, but he didn't want to alarm his parents and get them hurt like in his previous life. So he kept drinking with the comrades who had come to the wedding, pretending he knew nothing.

Who knew that after drinking until midnight, he would just make it into the room and lie down before hearing a resentful complaint: “Zhou Huaichen, what took you so long to come in? You know I'm afraid of the dark!”

Zhou Huaichen: ???? Why wasn't she afraid of the dark when she ran away in the middle of the night?

Wait, why hadn't Xu Wan run away?

Sun Xiaoya was Xu Wan's cousin. She had been jealous of her beautiful cousin since childhood, especially since even the man she liked was in love with Xu Wan. She dreamed of replacing her cousin someday.

Then she was reborn on Xu Wan's wedding day. When she learned her cousin was going to run away on her wedding night, she thought her chance had come. Xu Wan's new husband was a regiment commander. Once Xu Wan ran off, Sun Xiaoya could comfort the heartbroken Zhou Huaichen.

Then, moved by her kindness, the man would be grateful, and she could suggest taking her cousin's place.

But Xu Wan never ran away. Instead, Sun Xiaoya got to see them return to her parents' home. Xu Wan refused to walk and made Zhou Huaichen push her along on his bicycle. Sun Xiaoya thought her chance had come again. Men liked dutiful women. Who would like someone so inconsiderate?

Without thinking, she went up to them. “Cousin, how can you make your husband push you like that? You're so inconsiderate.”

She had meant to show off how considerate she was, but the man wasn't impressed at all.

“What's it to you? She's my wife, and I like pushing her. What business is it of yours?”

“If you've got so much free time, the fields are full of rats. Go catch them all.”

Sun Xiaoya was stunned by his scolding and humiliated in front of the whole village. She hated him. Surely Xu Wan would run away sooner or later, and then she would get to watch him make a fool of himself.

But she waited and waited. The man got promoted, her cousin became an entrepreneur celebrated in the newspapers, and the two of them stayed as loving as ever and even had a beautiful pair of twins, a boy and a girl.

Sun Xiaoya: ??? That's not right. Why didn't Xu Wan run away? What happened to the big show I was supposed to enjoy?
