The Pampered Little Lucky Star of the 1990S

[Complete] A childhood-sweethearts treat with a little childhood friend romance. Interested? Blurb One: In the General's manor of the Dafeng Dynasty, a little crabapple tree was struck by heavenly lightning during its final tribulation and unexpectedly sent to Xiaozhou Village in the 1990s. That day, lightning flashed and thunder roared, while waves rose a thousand feet high. The fishermen all said the Ye family men who had gone out to sea were probably doomed to perish. The moment the little crabapple was born, the heavens and earth suddenly grew calm, and the sea returned to tranquility. The Ye family men came back safe and sound from their fishing trip, their boats laden with a bountiful catch. The Ye family all thought the little crabapple was a lucky charm, and doted on her from the day she was born. When she was five, the little crabapple nearly drowned. To her surprise, the one who saved her was the very young general from her previous life, a man renowned throughout the land who had carefully tended to her every day. Her greatest regret from her previous life was never getting to say a proper goodbye to the handsome general. She carefully rested on his back and whispered, in a voice only she could hear, "I hope you've been well, my little general." Warnings: Alternate setting, don't overanalyze the details. Everyday life, cozy and healing. A pseudo-period piece, but a true childhood-sweethearts romance. Coming up next: After three years of playing bit parts, Tang Zhiqiao lands a supporting role in a period drama, playing a nameless woman known as Female N. The shoot takes place in the desolate Taklamakan Desert. Every day, she finds strangers at the inn to rehearse with, and now and then she puts on a tearful scene, throwing a tantrum and threatening to hang herself. After spending several days at the research base, Han Cheng walks into the inn in his work clothes and finds the place turned upside down. A madwoman in period costume has a sword at his throat. "Guards! Seize this arrogant, insolent wretch for your princess!" Han Cheng, the "arrogant wretch," looks around. Where are the guards? "What are you looking at? Farmer, I'm talking about you!" Han Cheng, a scholar researching desert soil improvement: "..." Tang Zhiqiao gets a good look at the man's face and staggers back as if she's seen a ghost, her tongue tying itself in knots. "H-Han... Cheng? You're still alive?" Han Cheng gives her a cold glance. "I'm dead." When Han Cheng comes out after changing, the looks-obsessed Tang Zhiqiao's eyes go wide. Wow, are farmers these days really this polished? No, that's not the point! "Han Cheng, you disappeared for three years after we got married just to come to this godforsaken place and farm?" Han Cheng's gaze is cool, distant, and indifferent. "Who are you?" Tang Zhiqiao, who has seriously offended the makeup artist: "??!!" If I don't divorce you, I'll change my name and spell it backward! Later, Han Cheng sells a few songs he casually scribbled down years ago, and Tang Zhiqiao makes them famous with her singing. She goes from a nobody to a top-tier star. Later still, Han Cheng casually invests in a drama, and Tang Zhiqiao brings her role to life, shooting straight into the ranks of top-tier actresses. And after that, Han Cheng's research base spends seven figures to welcome its first spokesperson. His assistant looks at the billboard featuring a breathtakingly beautiful actress and can't help asking, "Boss, why do we need all this flashy stuff just to farm? Wouldn't it be better to use that spare money to set up a few more test plots?" Han Cheng folds his arms across his chest, his cool, distant foxlike eyes fixed on the billboard. "Supporting a wife is pretty expensive." Assistant: "...Supporting... a wife? You, who are destined to be alone forever, have a wife?" Han Cheng: My wife is called Qiao Zhitang. Reading Guide: 1. She's secretly in love with him and chases him, but the heroine doesn't realize it. 2. Married first, fall in love later. Maybe. 3. A groveling redemption arc. That's putting it too strongly. 4. Showbiz. Not really. Theme: Childhood sweethearts love each other, heal one another, and help each other succeed.
