The Engagement Fell Through, So the Big Shot Came Calling That Very Night [The 1980s]

Jiang Mengyao awakens memories of her previous life and discovers that she has become the childhood sweetheart of a domineering male lead, otherwise known as his backup option.

The domineering male lead has a first love while sent down to the countryside, a childhood sweetheart when he returns to the city, and even a confidante he meets while doing business.

The childhood sweetheart is at the very bottom of the food chain, the male lead's fallback plan.

Jiang Mengyao works in the factory's publicity department, where she hears all the latest gossip. The department head once tried to set her up with someone, but Jiang Mengyao turned him down.

This time, when the department head asks again, she says yes.

Whoever wants to be the backup option can have the job. She's done with it!

When the domineering male lead returns after his business venture fails, he discovers that his childhood sweetheart is married.

Zheng Changdong comes from a family in the residential compound. He's taken a liking to the factory's delicate, gentle flower of the factory and asks someone to arrange an introduction, but she refuses. He sends someone again, thinking that if she refuses this time, he'll have to go himself.

Luckily, she agrees to marry him.

When Zheng Changdong sees the domineering male lead looking utterly dejected, he says in a coy, sweet voice, "I'm not like you. I only like one person, so I can't keep all my options open."
