Synopsis: Xu Shanshan was born deep in the mountains, where roads and minds were both closed off. Her parents, who hadn't given birth to a son, were called "childless," while the alluring Xu Shanshan was labeled a "vixen." She would overhear gossip outside, only to return home and be forced by her parents to work like a beast of burden for her uncle's family, who had a son. That year, when educated youths were sent to the countryside, Xu Shanshan learned for the first time what cities outside the mountains looked like.
Xu Shanshan decided to escape the mountains, so she set her sights on Zhou Kai, an educated youth sent down to the countryside. This man was infatuated with her and also had a firm desire to return to the city. However, not long after he passed his exams and returned to the city, Xu Shanshan received a strange letter. The letter stated: Zhou Kai was getting married, and the bride was a Comrade Liu Xin. Along with the letter were an oversized package and a train ticket.
....Fang Zhiwen was reborn. In his previous life, he cherished Xu Shanshan for an entire lifetime, yet he still couldn't win her heart. On their wedding anniversary, she actually went to meet her first love, Zhou Kai. He swore that in this life, he would become someone Xu Shanshan couldn't reach, and he would stay far away from her. But before that, he first needed to expose Zhou Kai's hypocritical nature. In the previous life, this man was getting married and having children in a neighboring city while simultaneously luring Shanshan with letters. He wanted to have his cake and eat it too, truly shameless! As they were once a married couple, Fang Zhiwen sent a letter to Xu Shanshan in the countryside in advance.
......On the day of Zhou Kai's wedding, something big happened: Fang Zhiwen, the factory director's son, knelt down and confessed his love to a girl, even handing over all his wages on the spot. Everyone dismissed it as a joke. But a few days later, the Fang family genuinely began preparing for a wedding. As for Fang Zhiwen's grand declarations after his rebirth, he stated that his mind hadn't fully adjusted right after being reborn. He'd be a fool to set up his wife to be happily in love with someone else. He refused to believe that he couldn't warm her heart over two lifetimes! Others commented: "One is after beauty, the other after money; the gap is too wide, they're bound to divorce sooner or later." But later on~ while several couples in the motor factory's staff quarters divorced, Xu Shanshan and Fang Zhiwen surprisingly thrived. And this country girl, not only beautiful, also proved highly capable, opening one factory after another, eventually taking her company public.
Note: In both lifetimes, the male and female leads were actually "love at first sight" (beautiful woman, handsome man). The male lead developed an inferiority complex due to love, leading to misunderstandings. The female lead, due to her original family, dared not love and focused on building her career. Beautiful and ambitious, seemingly gentle but actually fiery village girl VS jealous, wife-doting, second-generation factory owner.
