Lin Xiang, with her fair skin, stunning beauty, and charming liveliness, wakes up to find herself transmigrated into a period novel as the doomed, tragic cannon fodder supporting character.
According to the plot, due to her biased father and stepmother favoring sons over daughters, she is deceived into giving up her city job for her brother. Later, because of her extraordinary beauty, she catches the eye of the factory director’s abusive son, and her stepmother schemes to marry her off to him. Her life is destined to be miserable.
Lin Xiang: What?!
This is way too unfair!
The transmigrated Lin Xiang resolves to lie flat and give up resisting. However, with wolves ahead and tigers behind, lying flat is impossible—she doesn’t even have a cheat skill or a wealthy benefactor to rely on!
Until…
Her childhood fiancé’s photo appears before her. The man in the photo has sharp eyebrows, deep-set eyes, and a handsome, rugged face. With broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and a promising future, he’s already achieved remarkable military accomplishments at a young age. Devoted to his career, he doesn’t like coming home. Not to mention, his island post is rich in natural resources, offering sunshine, beaches, clams, shrimp, crabs, and sea fish galore.
Lin Xiang: I’ll marry him!

He Hongyuan, after years in the military, has earned countless accolades and been promoted to regiment commander at a young age, with an incredibly bright future. He’s the top choice for a son-in-law in the family housing compound, the heartthrob of many, and relentlessly pursued by the daughters of numerous leaders.
But alas, Regiment Commander He is notoriously unromantic, resistant to pressure or persuasion, and cold-tempered. No matter who tries to introduce him to a match, he shows no interest. No matter which female comrade pursues him, he remains unapproachable. He harbors a deep disdain for arranged marriages.
Until one day, Regiment Commander He receives a telegram from his mother, accompanied by a young wife sent from his hometown:
“The wife we arranged for you has arrived.”
He Hongyuan: What?!
