[1980s + Rebirth + Age Gap + Marriage First, Love Later + Rags to Riches]
Lian Qiao has been reborn. The moment she opened her eyes, she was back on the day before her wedding.
In her past life, she married a useless scumbag. After the wedding, he claimed to support her career, but in reality, he swindled her out of her money and lived a life of debauchery with her stepsister. When she was on her last breath, suffering from cancer, he personally signed the waiver to stop her treatment, eagerly waiting for her to die.
With her final surge of strength, she grabbed a gasoline can and gave them all a funeral of fire—no one was going to get out alive!
When she opened her eyes again, she had actually been reborn.
Lian Qiao: “Is there really such a good thing?”
Since she’s here, she might as well make the most of it!
First, she catches them in the act of adultery on the spot, making the scumbag and her stepsister the targets of public scorn.
Next, she loots the wedding house, leaving not a single cent for those ungrateful wolves.
Then, she packs her bags and flees overnight to a military compound in the Northeast to seek refuge with her older cousin, taking on the role of the “Dehua” (a live-in relative who helps with the kids).
Everyone in the compound thought she was just a discarded country woman coming to drift through life, and no one took her seriously.
Meanwhile, Lian Qiao was waiting for the collapse of the “Big Brother” Soviet Union so she could ride the wave of opportunity and become a winner in life—but she hit a snag with her household registration.
She couldn’t settle her residency without getting married.
After some thought, she set her sights directly on the cold, stern, and abstinent older Battalion Commander in the compound.
Everyone waited to see her get rejected and live a life of “widowhood” while he ignored her.
Instead, they were all dumbfounded after the wedding.
The usually steady and abstinent Battalion Commander was like an “old house on fire”—once he started, there was no stopping him. He spoiled his wife beyond measure, his tenderness and possessiveness reaching the absolute limit.
The ex-husband wanted to come and pester her? He was kicked flying immediately.
Others dared to gossip? The Battalion Commander personally shielded her.
When the border opened, business opportunities exploded.
Relying on her foresight from her past life, Lian Qiao traded goods and engaged in border trade, making a fortune.
From then on, with wealth flowing in and a devoted man by her side, she lived as a top-tier winner envied by everyone.
