Song Qing and Lu Yang's marriage was a muddled affair. At the beginning of that special era, fearing implication, her parents forced her to break up with her ex-boyfriend and used their connection with the Lu family to compel Lu Yang to marry her.
Five years into their marriage, with their child three and a half years old, the two had only met a few times.
Forced by her mother, and with Lu Yang finally having the qualifications for family relocation, she took her daughter and traveled several nights by train to find him.
Knowing the man was unwilling, and since a unit in Ancheng was willing to take her in during her previous life, she simply took her daughter and left.
For the next ten years, Song Qing toiled tirelessly, raising her daughter alone. She was busy campaigning to clear her ex-boyfriend's family's name and, unwilling to hinder Lu Yang, she also made time to divorce him.
She believed she had been fair to everyone, except herself and her daughter. Her 10-year-old child was cautious, knowing her mother's struggles, and dared not ask for anything.
Enough. Since she had been reborn, she would choose a different path. At least when it came to raising her daughter, she would no longer do it alone.
As for whether Lu Yang was willing, that was another matter; after all, he didn't agree to divorce in her last life either. This is a story about ordinary daily life, without golden fingers or being an "overpowered protagonist" type of novel. The male lead knew and was always willing to be with her!
