After Dong Jiaojiao’s death, she realized that her world was a book, and she was originally the female lead in the story. However, her luck was taken away by a transmigrated woman, leading to her tragic demise.

With a second chance, Dong Jiaojiao aims to change her fate against all odds. As for her husband, He Chengjun, who is the male lead of the original book, he regrets everything he did with the transmigrated woman in his past life and is willing to let it go.

He Chengjun cares about his reputation and refuses to divorce. Dong Jiaojiao decides to apply for divorce herself and spreads rumors in the military compound that He Chengjun is incompetent and not a real man.

Finally, they divorced.

He Chengjun thinks that Dong Jiaojiao, a rural woman, won’t survive without him and waits for her to beg for mercy.

However, to his surprise, he learns that Dong Jiaojiao remarried to the top executive of the adjacent research institute.

What’s more, due to their age gap, he has to call him “uncle”… Doesn’t that make Dong Jiaojiao his aunt?

On the other hand, Lu Jinzhou is extremely sensitive to smells due to his childhood experiences. He thinks he will never get married until he meets Dong Jiaojiao.

Their first encounter leaves a deep impression, and a unique fragrance immediately captivates Lu Jinzhou’s heart and soul, entangling him incessantly, never to be forgotten….

People in the military compound say that Dong Jiaojiao, a rural woman, is not worthy of Director Lu’s prestige and charm, especially as a divorced woman.

But little do they know, Lu Jinzhou is determined to cherish his hard-won wife and treat her well.

The author of this novel was so desperate to get the MC and ML together that they completely disregarded their common sense or behaved like an illiterate.

The MC was drugged and the ONLY way to save her was for her to get laid? What about the spriritual spring she was bragging about that can even cleanse the toxins accumulated in her body? It suddenly became useless because she had to hook up with the ML immediately? Then why bother giving her such golden finger? Just so she can show off... more>> unnecessarily but then transforms into someone who cannot do anything significant without the help of the men around her?

Moreover, this is my first time reading a novel with such a sexually deprived character as the ML. He had a hard on just by smelling the MC and repeatedly pestered her like a pe*vert. Without both their halo, they were just the same as the SFL and SML. They flirt every chance they get and pretend to be all innocent afterwards.

Lastly, the author wanted to portray the ML as someone smart and such a good catch but from what I've read, he was just an unprincipled, gullible, clueless, and had a pea for a brain who can only think of getting under the MC's pants.

He was incapable of doing anyhing aside from giving inconsequencial threat whenever something happened and would rather wait for a lethal incident to happen before he would act. <<less

The story plot was nice.. BUT the romance was too fake.. Lol

The ML fall in love too fast. Their interactions quite funny but there's no chemistry between FL & ml.. FL always misunderstanding the ML..

There's also some missing plots as the author seems rushing to finish it.

It amazes me that I actually enjoyed reading this short novel. The FL wasn't the smartest, but had guts to live well.

It was a great fortune that the ML fell in love with her, but the same could be said for him... She actually grew to be fond of him as a person and not meddle into his scientific findings. Instead she devoted herself into growing a business empire.

Spoiler

What I disliked was the parenting with her 5 children. She actually spoiled them rotten. And the ML heard only his wife. Hopefully the children will grow mature while being exposed to experiences at school and eventually at their work.

I feel like at first the guy only likes her because she doesn’t set off his issues with smell. It makes everything that happens “Ment to be” instead of actually developing a relationship normally. It is a one sided love and the marriage wouldn’t have even happened if he wasn’t so desperate to act shamelessly and beg her. It works out in the end and she falls in love with him, but I feel like it could have done better to show the development of their relationship.

My first thought after reading this:

How could that s*um man become ML in the novel?

Well, maybe in the original story, he wasn't bad since there was no third party trying to ruin his marriage and his life was smooth sailing without any mishap. But when the transmigrator came and seduced him, it's proven that He Chengjun wasn't actually that good. He was a hypocrite who didn't hesitate to throw away his wife in the face of benefit. His retribution was well deserved although I still hope that he could know... more>> what the transmigrator had done to MC in the previous life so he could regret it more.

MC wasn't perfect either but it's understandable since she remembered her past bitter life. Seeing the s*um man and woman again, of course it's hard to contain her emotion. But I still didn't like how she acted like a s*umbag in the earlier chapters.

Spoiler

She acted friendly towards unfamiliar man just so she could secure a job in a factory without realizing that her action could be misunderstood by the other party. She also ditched ML after their one night stand without caring of ML's feeling. I know it's hard for her to believe others after what she had gone through in her past life but if it's like that, she shouldn't take advantage of others from the beginning.

Aside from that, the story was quite okay although not that memorable. It's short though so it didn't take long to finish.

Note: the translation really could be better. It really felt like reading the MTL and it made me dizzy. <<less

I actually quite like it, I found the FL freaking funny especially when she intentionally spits melon seeds at the ML even though she knew he was mysophobic because she's angry 😆😆 you know the kind of people that is so ridiculous you can't help but laugh 😂

For me, it is a one-time read. It wasn't eye-catching, just a normal slice of life. I found FL week and needed the support of ml. A bit of a shrew, she wasn't able to adapt to situations. It is a basic Okay read.

I read the MTL version and not gonna lie, I was lowkey annoyed at how FL's personality was written at the beginning. Literally a shrew. Shouting and screaming here and there. I understand her grievances and how no one was there to properly educate her, but like sister please at least roast your s*umbag ex with dignity. T T Anger got the best of her.

Anyway if you could get pass this annoyance like how I did plus turning off your brain while reading, story is okay-ish. I would put this... more>> in between mid and low tier of the 70s genre. <<less
