Blurb:

Zhou Bo transmigrated back to the third month of his marriage.

It was a time when he and his wife were deeply in love. She was pregnant, and he was filled with joy as he looked forward to becoming a first-time father.

But Zhou Bo, who had come from the future, knew the child wasn't his.

He stayed perfectly calm, a cigarette dangling from his lips, and spent the whole night smoking on the ridge between the fields in his slippers.

He didn't choose revenge or drown his sorrows in alcohol.

Not until someone held out a cigarette to him.

"Want one?"

The man had a handsome face and a calm expression. He smiled with a devil-may-care air, tall and broad-shouldered, with specks of dirt on his white undershirt.

Zhou Bo knew him. He was his wife's cousin, the one she always put down as worthless.

When Tang Fang first met Zhou Bo, he thought the man was pretty fussy. He changed his mind later. He admired Zhou Bo, thought everything about him was great, and wondered how Nuwa could have taken such care to sculpt someone so perfectly suited to his tastes.

He was tactful, handsome, and broad-minded. The way he looked at you from time to time could make you fall head over heels!

His only flaw was having a green hat for a wife.

At first, Zhou Bo also thought Tang Fang was no good. The longer they spent together, the more he felt Tang Fang made a pretty good friend. After all, having been an old man for so long, he'd seen plenty of life's ups and downs, but this was the first time he'd met someone who took such good care of him.

He was handsome, fit, and rich.

His only flaw was that his mouth really ought to be sewn shut.

It was the 1990s, and reform was sweeping the country. Zhou Bo was determined to buy a few apartments in Haicheng, and to persuade his aunt to come there too!

He'd make a success of both entertainment and business, putting out one classic song after another. He'd listened to those old songs in his past life, but if he listened to them in this life, how could they still be old-fashioned?

I want to write a cheesy, melodramatic romance. The wife won't have much page time.

Upcoming 1: His Archrival Goes Out of His Way to Win Him Over. The blurb may change, but the general direction won't~

(Also known as: After a Gender Swap, My Archrival Goes Out of His Way to Win Me Over)

[Love rivals to lovers] [Gender swap] [Cold-faced powerhouse bottom x arrogant, doting top]

Zhou Bai and Wang Haoran were archrivals known throughout the village. They never greeted each other when they met. One would go left, and the other would go right.

They'd disliked each other since childhood. As soon as one bought a toy, the other would make a little skateboard cart by hand.

At school, one ruled the southern side, while the other was the "landlord" of the north.

The village simply couldn't have two tigers.

Luckily, they graduated from the same elementary school, went to the same middle school, and got into the same high school. At last, they were finally separated!

During a university summer break, they both returned to the village. Everyone expected another big fight and got ready to break it up, call the police, and haul them away. But the outcome left them utterly stunned.

Breaking news! The two who'd been at odds since childhood have started dating!

Upcoming 2: The Game of the Gods

A ruthless bottom who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals x a god who treats the world as a game and eventually goes mad for the bottom

[The powerful one bows his head]

1.

Kartel discovered that Lodite had betrayed him. They had once been the closest of brothers, friends who could watch each other's backs. They had struggled together in the slums, like dogs floundering in a mud pit while anyone could come along and kick them.

But Lodite had kicked him into the depths of that pit, just to seize a fleeting opportunity.

The next time Kartel saw him was on a promotional screen atop a skyscraper that reached into the clouds.

The man who had once been filthy to the bone now wore beautiful, pristine wings. He had become a candidate to serve the gods, adored by countless people, and smiled with childlike innocence as he gave his speech.

"I'm lucky. I was born in the slums, but I was fortunate enough to meet a brother who always looked after me..."

Kartel stood there all afternoon. Then he turned and joined the Game of the Gods.

The Game of the Gods was the only way to earn status through competition. The gods sent down avatars as divine candidates, and participants had to work hard to win their favor. In the end, they would help the gods win. Those who succeeded would gain incomparable status and power.

Kartel set his sights on the divine candidate Lodite had long admired and repeatedly professed his love for: the god ###

2.

A god had a human who had long existed in his memories.

It was an open topic among the gods. He didn't even know the person's name or what they looked like.

Countless humans racked their brains over the person in the god's eyes. Countless humans wanted to become him. Countless humans were desperate to make the lofty god show them favor.

Some took dangerous risks for it. Some nearly went mad. Some died, some lived, and some challenged the god's limits again and again.

Human hypocrisy, arrogance, and ignorance wearied him. He decided to let the river of time wash over his memories and blur his perceptions.

Until that human appeared again.

The heart he thought had frozen began to beat once more.

The god descended from his throne.

A ruthless bottom who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals x a god who treats the world as a game and eventually goes mad for the bottom
