Reborn in 2002, the first thing Liu Qianqian does is tear up her letter of intent to sign with Huayi Management.
In her previous life, she signed away eight years of her freedom, was treated as a pawn by big money, and criticized as a pretty face with no talent. At thirty-eight, she finally realized she had never lived a single day for herself.
This time, she’ll call the shots.
She takes bit parts, auditions, gets rejected, and tries again. From a maid with just one line to Wang Yuyan, who leaves the director impressed.
She thinks she’s alone on this journey until Lu Shen, a barbershop apprentice she meets by chance at a wonton stall, keeps showing up with milk tea, medicated patches, and the words, “I believe you’ll make it big.”
Only later does she learn that he has been waiting for her across two lifetimes.
This time, she’ll not only establish herself in the entertainment industry, but also hold on to the man she let slip away in her previous life.
