Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife
Synopsis
Dragged into death by a stranger’s leap, Cheng Su’s last thought is pure outrage. Wrong place, wrong time, wrongfully killed—then everything goes black.
When she opens her eyes again, the air smells of soap powder and coal smoke. It’s the 1980s, the walls are bare, the clothes are coarse, and the face in the mirror isn’t hers at all. She has slipped into the life of the so‑called culprit who pulled her down with them.
In her previous life she was single, sensible, and alone. In this one she wakes up to a dazzling young military officer calling her "wife," a sharp‑tongued third child testing her patience, and a cramped courtyard packed with nosy neighbors. She remembers every moment of her unjust death—and every cheat‑like advantage she brought back with her.
This time, Cheng Su refuses to be anyone’s victim. The husband is hers, so anyone who dares to covet him can line up to be knocked down. She’ll ladle out fragrant soups at a street stall, turn them into a bustling chain of restaurants, and stack her own hard‑earned cash under the mattress. She’ll raise the children, tease her stoic soldier until he blushes, and meet every so‑called mistress with a smile and a metaphorical rolling pin.
In a decade of scarcity and gossip, she plans to eat well, drink well, build a name, and cling shamelessly to the man who spoils her. Side by side with her overprotective military husband, she’ll hammer out a new home from the rubble of two lifetimes and dare anyone to try tearing it down again.
