[A chaste, cold, veteran colonel vs. a sweet, ambitious beauty from the countryside, transmigrate into a book, both untouched]
On his way back to Beiping after completing a mission, Lu Tingxiao runs into a lovely young woman.
Holding her in his arms, all he can think of is her soft, fragrant warmth and her delicate beauty.
His heart pounds. When he looks down, he realizes she is the very woman who schemed to get close to him and climb the social ladder, only to be harshly rejected.
He arranges for her to stay in the old house next door, then spends every day racking his brains for an excuse to visit her.
Lin Jingshu transmigrates into a book set in the 1980s and becomes a vicious supporting character.
The kind whose entire family are villains.
She arrives just as the villagers are pointing fingers at her, and her reputation is already ruined because she tried to marry up. She bundles up her belongings and takes her whole family to Beiping.
Her mother knows how to sew? Perfect. Lin Jingshu knows exactly what styles are in fashion.
Soon, every piece from Lin Family Custom Clothing is in such high demand that customers can’t get their hands on one.
Her younger brother has a talent for physics? Then she’ll make sure he puts it to good use and try to raise a scientist capable of building aircraft carriers.
To avoid falling back into the original plot, she works diligently and never takes the initiative to approach Lu Tingxiao.
But Lu Tingxiao is an intensely responsible man. He won’t rest easy until he knows her family is completely settled in Beiping.
Using that as his excuse, he insists on getting involved in everything. Lin Jingshu thinks he must be keeping an eye on her, afraid she’ll cause trouble.
Then the man discovers the stack of love letters in her bag.
With a stern expression, he says, “You have exams coming up. Don’t let dating ruin your studies.”
Lin Jingshu agrees, only to have the man whisk her off to the marriage registration office as soon as she graduates.
