Raising Kids in the 70s: A Couple's Daily Life

Lin Wei and Zong Shao had an arranged marriage. Despite being married for four years and having two children, they had always lived separately, making their relationship no closer than that of ordinary friends.

Lin Wei thought they would remain a “plastic couple” for life—until she had a dream while accompanying the army. In that dream, she discovered that her husband was actually the unattainable “white moonlight” of the female lead in a period novel. And she? She was his white moonlight.

In the novel, they had been betrothed since childhood, deeply in love as husband and wife. After her early passing, he spent the rest of his life longing for her and never remarried.

Upon waking, Lin Wei gazed thoughtfully at the expressionless man before her and thought:

So he actually loves me this much? Then maybe… I should love him back, just a little.
