The Fortunate Little Widow of the Eighties

[There’s a “content warning” below the blurb. Read it before diving in.]

Song Xingchen becomes a pretty village girl in the 1980s who was forced into marriage and persecuted to death.

A law-abiding citizen who believes in “calling the police when there’s trouble,” she promptly takes down the village bully and the village chief who murdered the original owner of her body.

From then on, the pitiful, lonely village girl whom everyone in the village had taken pity on sets out on the road to turning her life around, with a little tagalong in tow.

Nie Ci is the eldest son and grandson of the Nie family, a prestigious clan in the capital with a thousand years of history. He’s a man born at the finish line.

Proud and aloof, noble, deep and taciturn, and indifferent to women, he nevertheless falls head over heels for Song Xingchen and never recovers.

The first time they meet, Nie Ci asks Song Xingchen for a pot of ink orchids as a birthday gift for Old Master Lu.

The tall, handsome man stands beside her. Seeing the smudge on Song Xingchen’s cheek, he furrows his fine brows and reaches up to wipe it away. The delicate, silky softness of her skin nearly leaves him swooning with his soul floating out of his body.

Seeing her clear, orchid-like smile, Master Ci knows that the iron tree of his heart, pure for more than twenty years, is finally about to bloom.

The few burly bodyguards following close behind Nie Ci are dumbstruck. Is this really the young master who would swing his arm at any woman who touched him?

[Period setting + sweet romance + a touch of fantasy + wish fulfillment]

P.S. This is a fictional period setting. The characters aren’t very smart, the logic is a mess, and the writing is elementary-school level. Don’t talk to me about science. I’ll write whatever I like, you can read whatever you like, and you can curse the characters in the story all you want. Just spare me, a poor, pitiful typist.
