Lu An spent twenty years keeping her head down, and finally got the chance to travel back from ancient times.
The moment she returned, even car exhaust smelled wonderful.
To hell with patriarchy! To hell with feudal society!
Crop tops, miniskirts, club fashion, disco, let's party!
But her happiness ended the moment she opened the door.
The person standing ramrod straight outside, dressed in ancient robes, looked at her for a second before quickly looking away. "Indecent."
Lu An: ???
Could someone slap her awake? Who was standing outside?
The master she'd served in ancient times?
"Your Highness, what are you doing here??"

After a few days of doing her utmost to serve someone hand and foot, Lu An finally snapped at his endless nitpicking.
"You eat my food, use my things, and still complain about everything. Get out there and lay bricks!"
The man sitting up straight on the sofa stood. Lu An instinctively took two steps back.
He bent down and whispered in her ear, "All right, wife."
Lu An: ??? Wife???
Where the hell did he learn that one?
[Bonus scene]
One day, Lu An flung the bunny-girl outfit she'd just received at the man. "Didn't you say this was indecent?"
He pulled her into his arms and chuckled. "I call it, when in Rome."
Content warning: This is a lighthearted fantasy romance with a nontraditional take on the genre. The male lead isn't very likable at first.

Qi Miaomiao was born into a family of military officials. She had mastered the Five Classics and Six Arts, and though her soul longed for freedom, she was married into a marquis's household at her family's command, confined to the narrow world of the inner court.
She lived cautiously, always on a knife's edge. After dying, she transmigrated to the modern era and became a female celebrity infamous for her scandals.
She looked at her still-youthful face in the mirror, took a bright red property deed from the bottom of a box, and gazed at the news on TV, endlessly broadcasting reports about a law-governed society. Feeling the convenience of modern technology, she nodded with satisfaction.

Her fans who hated her were the first to notice Qi Miaomiao had changed:
1. Qi Miaomiao, who used to be illiterate, was now engrossed in an ancient book.
Her haters mocked her: Why pretend to be cultured now? Everyone knows you dropped out of high school!
Not long after, Qi Miaomiao posted an acceptance letter from a prestigious university in China.
At the same time, people discovered that the top humanities exam scorer that year had also been named Qi Miaomiao.
2. Qi Miaomiao, whose acting skills had once amounted to pouting and glaring, landed the role of a villainess in a major franchise.
Her haters doubled down: She's a terrible actress and loves acting like a diva. Is she just playing herself?
After filming wrapped, her costars all posted online:
Award-winning actress: I learned so much during the three months I spent working with Miaomiao.
Famous director: Miaomiao brought this character to life.
Costume and makeup team: Ms. Qi, thank you!!!
3. Her agent signed Qi Miaomiao up for an outdoor variety show.
Her haters mocked her in droves: What can she even do? Be all delicate and cry?
When the show aired, Qi Miaomiao appeared as the youngest contestant. Faced with no food and nowhere to stay, she remained calm, shot a hare with a bow, and caught fish in a stream. She could do just about anything.
Comments:
[What is she even made of? How does she know how to do everything?]
[This woman is seriously tough on herself!]
[Hater turned fan. You're welcome!]

Qi Miaomiao was thriving in modern society, and in the prime of her youth, she decided to finally experience the free love she'd always dreamed of. She set her sights on a rising young star who was appearing with her on a dating show.
Just as she was preparing to give it her all, the award-winning actor Lu Zhiyuan suddenly joined the show. He looked exactly like the heir to the marquis's household from her past.
His gaze was gentle as he smiled and said, "Miaomiao, it's been a long time."
Qi Miaomiao: Miaomiao your grandma's leg! You're blocking my view of the handsome guys!
Theme: Love means learning to change.
My favorite piece is "The Past and the Present". It is true that apart from the common sense gap, the cognitive gap is actually the biggest. I really like the feeling of gradual redemption arranged by the author bit by bit. Thank you so much to the author!
This drama reminds me of Ang Lee and Zhang Ziyi. The same thing happened in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Zhang Ziyi was practicing martial arts to play Ang Lee while auditioning other actresses. Unfortunately, Zhang Ziyi still didn't get Ang Lee's approval in the end. Alas.
Look at your subscription rate back!
After many years, I looked back at it again and found it to be quite good. However, the heroine's character was a bit lacking, but no one is perfect, so that's understandable. Overall, it was pretty good.
How long has it been since I came back to check it out again hahahahaha
I want to watch Zhou Zhinian's extra story and hear the story between him and Gu Zisheng

I may be a devil, I want to see it, although it is a tragedy. . .
? I want to read the story of the two of them in Daxia, but there is always something unfinished.
I really, I have a low tear point. I shed tears almost every chapter I read. I really, I thought this was a sweet article. Although it is sweet, the short stories are very sad. It is too difficult for me to have a low tear point. I, wow!
