Climbing the Social Ladder in the 1970s

When Liang Qiaotong married Tao Siyue, she thought, marrying one person was much like marrying another. At least Tao Siyue had a place where she could put down roots.

Only after marrying him did she discover that Tao Siyue's family was better off than she'd imagined. She steeled herself, determined to use this favorable wind to rise to the top.

But how could this favorable wind really be in love with her? She'd thought he was faking it, just like she was.

After she really did ride that favorable wind to the top, Liang Qiaotong started looking for a way to get divorced.

She hadn't expected him to be the one to ask for a divorce first. Fine, they could get divorced. But after it was over, why did she realize that the false affection she'd always believed in had been mixed with some real feelings?

After the divorce, Tao Tingke kept making a scene, insisting on finding her. He chased her to Shenzhen to ask why she'd abandoned him. It turned out he'd lost his memory again.

Scene 1:

When they were both in Inner Mongolia:

Liang Qiaotong realized that the newcomer was far too frail. Not only that, he was also a pushover, and the rest of the team had assigned him the most work.

At first, Liang Qiaotong thought it had nothing to do with her. But the guy was such a doormat that she couldn't help but speak up for him once or twice. Helping him those couple of times turned out to be a mistake. He got attached to her.

He even called her a heroine.

Scene 2:

"When you said you wanted me to marry you, I didn't agree. But now I truly want to marry you. I didn't understand my own feelings back then." Liang Qiaotong held Tao Siyue's hand and spoke tenderly.

Tao Siyue nodded. "Sure, sure."

Liang Qiaotong asked shyly, "When the time comes, can we really have a place of our own?"

"Of course," Tao Siyue said.

"I love it so much!"

I love your house so much.

The male lead isn't a weakling. He's only a pushover in the heroine's eyes.
