A story about a young intellectual sent to the frontier in the 1960s, where she pours her heart and soul into the cause.
[Delicate, soft, beautiful female intellectual x Taciturn, tough soldier]
The moment Lin Muzi opened her eyes, she was in an endless Gobi desert.
The mouthful of sand and the pickup truck jolting beneath her both reminded her
that this wasn't some hallucination caused by staying up all night and overworking herself.
She had transmigrated into a cannon-fodder supporting female character in a period novel,
a young woman from Shanghai sent to Xinjiang to help with development.
The good news: the young woman was pampered and delicate, but incredibly beautiful.
The bad news: she wasn't very bright and didn't make it past the first three chapters, managing to get herself killed in the Gobi Desert.
Looking at the furious man before her, Lin Muzi shrank into a corner of the pickup.
"Comrade soldier, let's talk this out. Put down the knife first."
Lei Ting looked at the culprit who had kept his whole team searching the Gobi Desert for three days and three nights without sleep.
His bloodshot eyes flicked toward the soft, delicate woman, and his voice was hoarse.
"You'd better know what's good for you."
Lin Muzi: I just want to throw myself into the fervent work of developing the frontier.
