Jiang Qin'er, the celebrated courtesan of the capital, drank poisoned wine to avoid being violated. When she opened her eyes again, she had become a bottom-tier, talentless celebrity, shunned by the industry and sent back to compete in a survival show: Jiang Qin'er, with no talent, no social skills, and no acting ability. She was short-sighted and irritating.
Her manager looked at the accounts, at the marketing and hush money they had spent at a loss, and at their near-zero income. He sighed. "Even if you get eliminated from this survival show, it doesn't matter. There's still a gig taking a photo at the opening ceremony of a pig farm. How about we take that one?"
Jiang Qin'er stared at him in confusion. "A survival show? Isn't that something the royal family does?"
Jiang Qin'er hadn't cared whether she became famous, until she caught a fleeting glimpse of the general she had longed for in the crowd. She searched for him desperately, but to no avail.
From then on, she resolved to stand in the brightest place of all and wait for her general to find her.
Later, flowers bloomed all around her, lights shone upon her, and applause thundered. Industry bigwigs, top performers, and every kind of media gathered below the stage, while countless viewers waited in front of their screens to hear her give an acceptance speech about her dazzling rise to fame.
As a woman oppressed in a brothel in feudal times, Jiang Qin'er had never imagined that one day she might gain true freedom.
Now, as she held the microphone, it was as if she held her own fate in her hands. She said she loved this era, because here she could become the best version of herself.

Lang Suxing, a former special forces soldier and now chairman of the board of a cutting-edge technology group, had never paid attention to the entertainment industry. Then one day, his younger cousin, a celebrity who thought far too highly of himself, pointed at the television and pouted. "She's the one who ignores me."
Lang Suxing glanced up nonchalantly. The moment his eyes caught the image on the screen, his heart began to tremble beyond his control, as if a sealed memory had awakened inside him.
Later, he finally understood: he loved her, from soul to the end of his life.

Coming soon: a novel I plan to officially start before the end of this year, I Didn't Love the White Moonlight After All
Mian Tang likes Mu Yunxiao.
No one knows that Mu Yunxiao once saved her life, and was also the person she spent her whole life following with her gaze.
Unfortunately, after living her life over again, she still appeared in Mu Yunxiao's life a little too late. He had already met Xia Qinglang, a fairy maiden who seemed to have descended from the clouds.
Mian Tang watched him become the sect's chief disciple so he could keep up with Xia Qinglang. She watched him betray his sect to seize medicine for Xia Qinglang. Knowing that he would eventually fall into the demonic path for her and lose everything, Mian Tang could no longer stand by and stepped in front of him.
She stayed by his side through countless arduous days and nights, helped him seize medicine and refine pills, and stood with him as he cleared his name and returned to the sect to take charge. She even traded her life for Xia Qinglang's. As she collapsed into Mu Yunxiao's arms, she desperately wanted to ask a melodramatic question: Mu Yunxiao, did you ever have even the slightest affection for me?

Everyone said that Mu Yunxiao, the cold and desireless sword immortal of Qingxuan Mountain, had once been deeply in love with Xia Qinglang, the "Fairy Linlang." To save her, he had risked his life, entering the demonic cave and crossing the frozen abyss, undaunted by death. No one cared that there was another person behind this story, an insignificant Mian Tang.
Only Mu Yunxiao cared.
He realized too late, and the pain cut to the bone.
A Few Notes:
1. The heroine saves people out of genuine kindness, not to suffer in exchange for love.
2. The male lead loves the heroine without realizing it.
3. Xia Qinglang is not a bad person and has never liked the male lead.
4. This story has a happy ending!
Theme: The present is the best era of all.
