Chapter One :Chapter 1

"Zhao Shu, wake up!"

"Zhao Shu?"

A deep, magnetic voice rang in her ear. Zhao Shu whimpered softly, and slowly opened her eyes. She had a splitting headache.

Before her eyes stood a man. Tall and upright, with an imposing aura, a clean-shaven head, thick eyebrows, big eyes, a high nose, lips that were neither thin nor thick. His face was handsome and resolute.

Zhao Shu's eyes instantly sparkled. So handsome! Just her type!

She was about to flirt, but a sharp pain erupted in her head. A flood of memories not belonging to her suddenly invaded her brain.

After processing the information, Zhao Shu was stunned. She had actually traveled through time!

She had traveled back to the 1970s, into the body of Miss Zhao of the affluent Zhao family.

Unfortunately for her, at the moment of her arrival, the original owner's family was persecuted for being too wealthy and branded as capitalists. All their family wealth was to be seized!

A crowd of angry commoners surrounded the Zhao family. The original owner and her parents were brutally beaten.

In order to save their daughter, the original owner's parents insisted that she quickly marry her betrothed.

The original owner was a well-educated young lady who naturally could not accept marrying a man she had never met. Coupled with the drastic changes in her family, she couldn't handle the shock and committed suicide by throwing herself against a wall.

Afterward, her fiancé arrived and rushed her to the hospital.

Somehow, she had ended up in this body.

Zhao Shu looked up with mixed feelings at the resolute and handsome man in front of her.

He is the ex-fiancé of the former host— Xiao Mubai.

Coming from a military background, he is handsome and well-built.

He has a slim waist and long legs, thus exceptionally embodying an inverted triangle body due to long-term training, his muscles are exquisitely perfect.

The former host was truly foolish!

Ignoring such a top-quality fiance, she even threw herself against a wall to die.

Had she secretly taken a glance at Xiao Mubai?

Zhao Shu held her head, struggling to sit up: "Where am I?"

Xiao Mubai poured her a cup of warm water and handed it to her.

"This is the hospital, you..."

He silently eyed the pale woman before him, his eyes slightly dimming.

Zhao Shu is his fiancee and famous beauty within a ten miles radius, with eyebrows as delicate as willows, almond-shaped eyes, and a tinge of subtle melancholy hidden between her eyebrows and eyes incites pity in him.

She comes from a good background, grows up in affluence, and learned all sorts of talents since she was young.

Her appearance belongs to the type of Jiangnan women, with porcelain white skin, gentle temperament, she is the kind of woman who can make men's hearts move at a glance.

A major incident occurred in her family recently, everyone else tried their best to avoid it.

As Zhao Shu's fiancé and a man, he should bear the responsibility of protecting his future wife.

"Does your head still hurt?" Xiao Mubai asked gently.

Zhao Shu touched the gauze on her head and nodded, "A little."

In her previous life, she was a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner and knew her own condition well.

The original owner had sustained severe injuries. However, probably because she herself was a soul who have passed through time, she felt okay.

She held the porcelain cup in her hands, thinking of a topic to break the awkward silence.

But when she glanced at the small red mole on the back of her hand, she froze!

Her spatial ability had also come over with her!

In her previous life, she lived in a post-apocalyptic era where resources were scarce.

Thankfully, she possessed a spatial ability that allowed her to hoard many supplies. Eventually, she opened a store within her space.

Now that her spatial ability had accompanied her through time, it meant she could hoard supplies to her heart's content in the 70s!

If she remembered correctly, at this moment, the street committee was leading people to raids on the Zhao's residence!

She still has time to go back!

"Xiao Mubai!" Zhao Shu was momentarily worked up, gripping the man's hand tightly, "I want to go home, right now!"

Xiao Mubai stiffened, his gaze falling on the hand placed on his. His ears turned red immediately.

Although they were engaged, they hadn't met each other before.

Such intimate moves were, somewhat...

Seeing his blushing face, Zhao Shu just realized, this was the 70s, even holding hands between men and women was very intimate behavior.

She quickly pulled back her hand and chuckled awkwardly, "I'm sorry."

Xiao Mubai, ears still rosy, shook his head slightly.

He then furrowed his brows and looked at her, "It would be too dangerous for you to go back to the Zhao family now, there are a bunch of people gathered near your house and they seemed very agitated."

"I know, but I..." An idea popped into Zhao Shu's head and she quickly made up an excuse: "But I left something very important at home, I must go back and get it, otherwise I will never feel at ease for the rest of my life."

While saying that, she pinched herself in secret.

Her teary almond eyes filled with tears in an instant.

Xiao Mubai was stunned for a moment and awkwardly moved his gaze away.

This time, from the neck to the root of his ears, everything turned red.

"All... all right."

Zhao Shu almost burst out laughing as she watched.

Wasn't this Xiao Mubai too innocent?

Half an hour later, at the back door of Zhao's villa.

On a tree-lined path, Zhao Shu covered her face with a handkerchief and said to Xiao Mubai, "You wait for me here, I'll be out soon."

Having said that, without waiting for Xiaomu Bai's response, she immediately slipped into the villa through the back door.

Following the original host's memory, she headed straight to her room, waved her tiny hand, and all the valuable items in the room disappeared into her space ring.

Next, she quickly ran to the original host's mother Wang Qin's room.

At this time, the Zhao couple had already been taken away for questioning by the local office officers.

They were maliciously reported as being enemy spies, and evil capitalists.

Zhao Shu gazed at this not particularly large villa and let out a sigh.

The Zhao family was indeed very wealthy in the early years, considered to be affluent gentry.

But then in special times, to protect his family, Zhao Shu's father decided to donate all their property.

This villa was also donated, and they moved into the servant's quarters with his wife and daughter.

Even so, those people still didn't leave the Zhao family alone!

At present, the few assets they owned were about to be seized and confiscated, and it's better for her to take them all than to let the local office benefit from it!

Zhao Shu stood by the window and glanced outside, only to see several people with red armbands on their arms, approaching the villa menacingly.

Without a word, she hastily stored all the packed luggage in her mother's room into her space ring.

Finally, she rushed into the original host's younger brother's room.

The host's little brother lived in the study. The room was not big, and a bookshelf occupied an entire wall.

The original parents probably had a premonition, and sent their son to their brother-in-law's house in advance. Consequently, there aren't many of the younger brother's belongings in the room.

Zhao Shu swept her arm, moving everything that could be moved from the study into the space.

Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly remembered something.

The original’s father had been framed, so there must be evidence of this framing hidden in the house.

So, she walked to the bookcase and inspected it carefully. Sure enough, she found something odd.

There was actually a mechanism on the bookcase!

Upon pressing it, a rumbling sound was heard!

A secret passage to the basement just appeared before Zhao Shu...
