Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.“Then why don’t I marry you!” Yu Dong suddenly proposed.
“You…” Xia Feng thought he had misheard.
“You see, you’re looking for someone to marry to ease your mother’s heart, and I also want to get married. We’re right in front of the doors to the Civil Affairs Bureau, and with all our papers too!” Yu Dong exclaimed while holding up her red household book.
“And the most important thing is that we just broke up with our exes. This is fate, ah!”
Right up until they left the Civil Affairs Bureau again, holding a newly registered red book, Xia Feng remained dazed still wondering, how did he end up getting married?
Did he just pick up a wife at the doors to the Civil Affairs Bureau?
What Xia Feng doesn’t know is that Yu Dong traveled back in time from 10 years in the future.
Now, having a second chance in life and able to secure a good husband, Yu Dong will live her life at full throttle and without regrets.

Some people don't seem to understand that when you reject something enough times, you lose it altogether. You don't avoid something until it goes away when it comes to love, you face it head on or it's out of reach before you know it. Trust and Love are two very special things, Love is built upon trust, if you can no longer trust who you love, then you end up rather not loving that person at all.
Women in china already have it hard enough with all the social pressure, the reinforcement of 30 being old and how lucky she is to have been reborn at a time "where she still young and fresh" is not really a good message. There is also a point where the FL consoles a "older" women from her village and internally thinks that women have to be realistic and stop waiting for love is quite harsh. A women can stand on her own and can be happy. "Women hold up half of the sky" not "Women hold up half of the sky but only if they are married by the time they are 20"
How the author depicts women who prioritize their careers as "bad" really rubbed me the wrong way. The declaration "that in a healthy happy relationship one person has to prioritize the other", molding them self around the partner is dangerous. An An (the ML's ex) gets depicted as being wrong to be busy and wanting a career but
the ML is the same?? - Like he's nearly never home, they don't really go anywhere, he's not able to rush over if something happens (like she's ill at some point and hes like "aw, that sucks - drink some porridge) it's just that the FL is supportive (in part because she's not really a 22-year old and in other part because she knows he'll cure cancer). So why is it okay when he does it and not when An An does it? The FL rushes to console him after he lost a patient - forgoing a business deal but when the ML is working he's not even looking at his phone answering. At the same time An An regrets her decision and keeps the ring to remind herself that "she lost a good man". But did she really? The ML himself said he never felt like he felt with the FL and that he used to put his work before everything. So he and An An did basically the same things (An An goes to the USA and he also leaves his wife to go to the USA for several months, only informing her shortly before), but it's only noble when he does it (That's not to say that An An did everything right or anything, it's just the way it's portrait is quite misogynistic).
The FL later alludes to "working so hard in her last life to mask the bitterness of being lonely/single as if a career is only to mask the longing for men by women.
The way the FL immediately
forgives her family for the ab*se she suffered from them in her last life is so ridiculous. They alienated her from the family, didn't care how she felt, didn't care who she married - only that she married. They cast her out, not caring about her as a person and she goes back just like that? Let's her husband be subjected to this super weird and villain like behavior? When they visited her family I just cringed and couldn't take it seriously, it honestly felt like a caricature.
But I guess that's filial piety for you.

Anyway... if these things don't bother you, you'll probably enjoy the book, like many other readers since it's well written. It's just that I feel like it could have been written nicer/more uplifting in regards of different, but equally satisfying life-paths women can take. Especially since the FL's radio-show was all about empowering and supporting people.Children don't raise themselves (!!) and it can be damaging to children who experience this kind of (emotional) neglect.
It's really neither healthy or should be encouraged. Why did the author even "add" a child if later neither parents has time or cares about the child (never going to any events or ceremonies, coming home late / business trips etc.) ?
Is it because that's what you're supposed to do to be a good child/person?
I went in looking for something short, found it but also realized that I'd discovered well-carved jade ah!
