[All-around capable career woman with modern egalitarian values x self-deluding, lovestruck, ever-growing adorable husband]
[Female lead's perspective]
Ren Feirou, a modern career woman, is transported into a novel set in a feudal society after a sexual harassment dispute.
The moment she opens her eyes, her tearful husband from a ghost marriage grabs her skirt and begs for help.
His scumbag father, who killed his wife and child to seize the family fortune, is truly despicable.
Ren Feirou's heart softens. "Fine, I'll help while I'm at it."
She never expected that after helping him, the young husband would cling to her and insist on welcoming her with a grand bridal procession and formally taking her as his principal wife.
"She's so lucky to have caught the eye of the richest family's young master."
"She's ordinary-looking and comes from an ordinary family. What makes a farm girl like her think she deserves him?"
Ren Feirou rolled her eyes and rejected Young Master Li's proposal for the hundred-and-fiftieth time. "I want to know too. Why? How could someone as foolish and capricious as Li Mingli possibly deserve her?"
[Male lead's perspective]
Young Master Li had been spoiled for fifteen years, and everything had always gone his way. Then he opened his eyes and found himself lying in a coffin.
In an instant, his father became his mother's murderer, and his father's concubine became an accomplice.
His chubby little limbs could barely carry him fast enough to run away.
Luckily, a remarkable woman fell from the sky and saved him from danger. He secretly swore that he would marry no one but her in this life.
But this woman was unlike anyone else. She didn't care for his looks or his immense wealth.
"I'll only marry a prince, a general, a minister, or the top scholar."
Young Master Li worked hard to improve his looks and martial arts, and finally became the most handsome man in the world.
Then he heard that his wife had received a marriage proposal from a bandit chief who ruled the region.
"He doesn't even impress me. What makes you think he'd impress you, a bandit covered in a criminal's swagger?"
Young Master Li kept working on his looks and studies, and finally became the top scholar.
Then he heard that his wife had received a marriage proposal from the greatest merchant in the empire.
"He doesn't even impress me. What makes you think he'd impress you, a fatso with a gut full of greed?"
Young Master Li kept working on his looks and experience, and finally became a high-ranking official.
Then he heard that his wife had received a marriage proposal from the Crown Prince.
"Wife, slow down! I can't catch up!" Young Master Li wept bitterly, his heart utterly broken.
Ren Feirou, now an empress, lifted the twelve strands of beads on her imperial crown with her delicate hand.
"You're not bad-looking, so I'll take you into my imperial harem. Remember to stay humble and don't get carried away."

Hell Refuses to Accept Lovesick Fools
There are many ghosts in the underworld who refuse to be reincarnated.
Ye Wushuang is one of them, but unlike the others, she has no memories and no lingering attachments.
She says she refuses to leave because people in the mortal realm work nine-to-nine, six days a week, and she doesn't want to suffer like that.
Life here is great. Some kind soul sends her offerings every day: gold, silver, jewels, luxury cars, mansions, even magical treasures used by immortals.
But if no one reincarnates, the underworld runs out of room.
The King of Hell frowns and decides to deal with Ye Wushuang, the most stubborn holdout, first.
He kicks Ye Wushuang, who is playing mahjong with her ghost friends, into the mortal realm.
"Go solve the problem at its source. Get those young couples to stop dying together for love and making promises to meet again before the Bridge of Helplessness!"
"And if you can't make it back, send a letter ahead of time. Don't leave someone waiting in vain!"
Ye Wushuang holds her last tile and sighs regretfully.
"What does it have to do with me if they die for love?"
Today, the Imperial Grandson of Heaven heard that mortal women all hoped to have an ideal husband by their side.
So he painted ten handsome men and sent them to his mother as offerings.
Naturally, the Crown Prince of Heaven, Ling Xu, confiscated them.
The rest of the gold and jewels were also sent as offerings by Ling Xu.
But this time, no one accepted them.
The beloved who had been hiding from him for three hundred years was finally willing to return to the mortal realm.
Ling Xu cast aside his immortal bones and fell to earth, forcing a weak smile in front of Ye Wushuang.
"You finally agreed to see me."
Ye Wushuang: "Who are you?"
Theme: A woman needs her own career to speak with confidence and avoid being controlled by others.
