After being reborn, Jiang Meng Yu had just escaped from the hands of human traffickers when she was captured by a "purchased husband". Her ex-fiance, whom her birth mother had arranged for her but was stolen by her sister using her identity, saved her. She said, "You saved me, and I have no way to repay you. I'll give myself to you." But when her birth mother arrived, she casually clapped her hands and left with her. General Gu cornered Meng Yu against a wall: "You seduced me and now you want to run?

General Gu smirked: "The debt of saving your life, which should be repaid with your body." Meng Yu: "Are you sure this fox is the military officer I encountered in my previous life?"
