The Princess and the Actress

[A feel-good story with two female leads, not a romance between women. Each has her own love interest. Complete, and please leave a five-star review!] [Next romance novel: Don't Call Me Teacher] [Female Lead One's Story]: The eldest princess of Huazhao, Her Highness Hua Zhao, was spoiled, willful, and overbearing, and deeply detested by the people. Yet this very princess, when the Xiongnu invaded the south, laid waste to the country, and slaughtered the people, danced in a red dress to distract the enemy forces, ultimately buying the tens of thousands of people in the capital a chance to escape. In the end, Princess Hua Zhao died beneath the hooves of the Xiongnu general's horse. When she opened her eyes again, a thousand years had passed. Still wearing the red dress she'd danced in, Hua Zhao wandered dazedly along the Fifth Ring Road. Following the example of those around her, Hua Zhao flagged down a taxi. Driver: Where to, miss? Hua Zhao: Take this princess to see the Emperor at once! Driver: Yes, ma'am! Right away! Twenty minutes later, the driver dumped Hua Zhao outside the History Museum. Hua Zhao: ??? [Female Lead Two's Story]: The historical drama Princess Hua Zhao wrapped up to great acclaim. Its finale pulled ratings of over 2 on both platforms, and over 3 on one platform! It was an undisputed sensation! The actress playing Hua Zhao, the female lead, was Cheng Xingfei, a well-known rising star in the industry. She was humble and low-key, never made a fuss, and worked diligently like a model employee. Then a huge scandal landed in her lap: a gossip outlet reported that Cheng Xingfei had gotten too deep into her role and gone insane, running to the History Museum in the middle of the night wearing a red costume and wailing as if someone had died! Cheng Xingfei: ??? [Bonus Scene]: After the two female leads meet Cheng Xingfei: You can stay at my place for now, but please follow my rules. Hua Zhao: Insolent commoner! You will address me as Her Highness the Princess! Cheng Xingfei (smiling sweetly): All right, Your Highness. Hua Zhao: Put it all together and say it again. Cheng Xingfei: Insolent commoner, you may stay at Your Highness's residence for now, but you must follow Your Highness's rules. 1. There's only so much I can convey in a short blurb. I recommend trying the first three chapters! 2. A feel-good story with two female leads, but not a romance between women. Each has her own love interest. 3. This story has two female leads, each with her own storyline. They won't be together all the time. For a while, the plot will focus on one of them, then later shift its focus to the other.
