The Villain's Darling in the 1970s

[A timid, sweet little darling vs. a cold, wicked villain]

1. Xu Nian transmigrated. At this point, every era and world was probably full of transmigrators, so it wasn't anything particularly unusual.

The problem was, she had landed in a "hard" era. Who in their right mind would want to live in 1974?

Lying on a rickety little bed, she looked up at a dark, broken roof, down at the uneven yellow earth, and, out of the corner of her eye, at a tacky, oversized green wooden chest. Who could have imagined that the most expensive thing Xu Nian owned was a mirror in a red plastic case?

Xu Nian really wanted to "just! die! already!"

And that wasn't even all!

She also had to guide Xu Hongqi, who had a white moonlight in his heart, into becoming an upright, tolerant, and kind person.

Come on, she wasn't even that kind of person herself. Was this really "good"?

2.

Xu Hongqi was from Huaxian County. Clever and steady-minded, he had once lived a happy life, but his parents both died when he was seven, and he was sent to live with his paternal aunt in Xujia Village.

His aunt was weak and useless, his uncle was violent and greedy, and his cousins were selfish. Xu Hongqi suffered humiliation after humiliation through a hard life, shaping him into a proud, sensitive, cold-hearted, and obsessive person. Later, he even turned against society.

P.S. Recently, there's been a woman who keeps getting close to him, treating him like a child she's raising. Xu Hongqi can't figure out why. What does he have that anyone could covet...?

3.

"I want to break up with you."

As soon as she said it, Xu Hongqi glared at Xu Nian with a vicious look. "Don't say that again."

Xu Nian rolled her eyes. "I'll say it again, and again."

"Mm, I... can't..."

Seeing Xu Nian panting hard, Xu Hongqi gently patted her back. "Hungry? How about I take you to get some stir-fried pork? Hmm?"

Xu Nian's eyes glistened. "My mouth hurts. I can't eat."

Here's a preview of another upcoming story. Take a look if you're interested!

"The Con-Artist Couple of the 1980s"

Synopsis:

Mu Dailan hadn't even graduated from university when she learned how cruel society could be. Taking her grandmother's advice, she married a "good man."

For the first twenty-four years of his life, Ke Mu had been struggling to make ends meet. At twenty-five, his business had finally started to take off. He listened to a matchmaker's introduction, took one look at his future wife's face, and married her without delay.

Mu Dailan was so angry she was speechless. "This is marriage fraud! The matchmaker told my family you were a big boss. Now you're telling me this house is rented, you just made yourself look successful, and in three days we're moving to another rental in Liushui Alley?"

Ke Mu remained unruffled. "The matchmaker didn't lie to you. I am a boss. I just invested all my money in a truck. In a little while, you can pick any house you like. How's that?"

A little over a month into their marriage...

Ke Mu stood holding a spatula. "Mu Dailan, the matchmaker said you were an educated, refined, well-mannered, gentle, and virtuous university student. But I cook, I clean, and I even do your laundry. Now I'm just asking you to help me with some accounting, and you say you're tired and won't do it?"

Mu Dailan calmly glanced at him. "Ke Mu, the matchmaker never said I'd have to do any of that after I got married. Besides, you do the laundry because you're the one who takes your clothes off..."

The matchmaker put on a fake smile. "Good grief, I sure am grateful to you two!"

Moral: Anyone with a dream can do great things.
