In the staff compound, the girl with the best conditions, Ming Xue, was originally engaged to Gui Xiwen. But after taking a fall, she woke up insisting on breaking off the engagement and quickly married the plain-looking Zhang Kuo instead.

Angered by being dumped, Gui Xiwen, now the laughingstock of the compound, impulsively married Gu Ying, a girl with the worst conditions.

Gu Ying had just moved into the compound. Skinny, small-framed—unable to carry a load or lift a basket—everyone mocked Gui Xiwen, saying he married a good-for-nothing spoiled girl: not beautiful, not capable, absolutely useless.

Everyone predicted the marriage wouldn’t last. Once Gui Xiwen cooled off, they said, he’d definitely divorce her.

But later, they saw the once unruly troublemaker Gui Xiwen become unbelievably gentle and obedient by Gu Ying’s side—constantly checking on her, caring for her tenderly.

And that once dark and skinny girl, Gu Ying, had transformed into the most beautiful woman in the compound. She became an excellent cook, a sharp mind in both family matters and finances—handling everything inside and out with flair, living life to the fullest.

Gui Xiwen proudly declared:
“Now do you understand why I’m not divorcing her?”
Such a good wife—why would I let her go? I treasure her like a gem!

Meanwhile, Ming Xue, after being reborn, remembered Gui Xiwen was destined for great disaster. She broke off the engagement and instead married Zhang Kuo, who she knew would become the richest man in the future.

But things didn’t go as planned. No matter how long she waited, Zhang Kuo never became a tycoon. Instead, she had to watch Gui Xiwen climb the ranks, living a lifetime of happiness with Gu Ying, who had only gotten better and better.
