After My Blind Ex-Fiancé Became a Music-House Entertainer

Please check out my other ongoing novel, I Write Novels in Hong Kong [Period]!

In her previous life, Jiang Tong found fault with everything about her fiancé. She thought he did nothing but dabble in literature, a frail scholar who couldn't shoulder a load or lift a hand.

No matter how good he was to her, she despised him. She had never even given him a smile or a kind word.

Yet he never held it against her. Stars always shone in his dark eyes whenever he looked at her.

Later, his family was convicted of a crime. He was demoted to lowborn status and went blind, and at last their engagement was called off.

She thought they would never have anything to do with each other again. But when her family fell into ruin and her father grew gravely ill, with no money for treatment, he gave her all his savings.

After both her parents passed away, her adoptive elder brother tried to sell her. Once again, he risked his life to help her escape.

In time, Jiang Tong became a celebrated restorer of paintings and calligraphy in the Ming dynasty. Collectors came to her door bearing heaps of gold and silver, hoping she would restore their treasured masterpieces.

At last, she understood why he had been so devoted to literature and art. But her only kindred spirit was gone, and she would never again see his warm, gentle smile, like a spring brook.

-

Jiang Tong was reborn, back in the days when her parents and that man were both still alive.

This time, she wanted to treat him a little better.

-

Su Guanqing was the only son of the chief grand secretary, and his skill with brush and ink was divine.

Yet he never won his fiancée's favor.

Back then, he thought he had a whole lifetime to win her over. Surely, one day, she would look his way.

Later, his father was convicted, and the entire Su family was sentenced to death. He alone was spared.

The favored son of heaven became a lowborn musician, someone anyone could trample underfoot.

He also went blind, never to wield a brush again.

From then on, he dared not hope for a future with Jiang Tong.

But just as he was preparing to rot alone in the dark mire, Jiang Tong came.

"Come on, come home with me."

The voice that haunted his dreams sounded gently by his ear.

The usually calm and composed Su Guanqing looked up in confusion. His unfocused dark eyes gazed ahead, and his fingers clenched around his bamboo cane until his knuckles turned white.

No! It couldn't be.

How could Tongtong have come for him?

Had longing finally driven him mad?

P.S.

1. The male lead is perfectly normal with everyone else, but insecure and sensitive around the female lead.

2. Jiang Tong transmigrated from another world in her previous life.

3. Single-couple romance, one-on-one, happy ending, updated daily.

Yan Shaowei transmigrated to Hong Kong in the 1940s.

She had no money, was living on the streets, and had two little burdens trailing behind her.

In her previous life, Yan Shaowei was a top web-novel author. The only thing she knew how to do was tell stories.

She started telling tales on the street, tapping a bowl to draw a crowd, and earned enough to fill her stomach.

Later, she returned to her old profession, writing novels, screenwriting, and making films.

Before long, Hong Kong residents discovered a writer whose stories were always engrossing, no matter what she wrote. At the same time, people realized that a certain opera troupe had a genius playwright.

That year, Yan Shaowei used her formidable writing skills to create an optimistic and resilient street child in her new book, The Story of Gouwa, bringing Hong Kong readers to tears.

Her book was adapted into a radio drama, performed by street storytellers, and even turned into a full-length stage opera...

That year, Yan Shaowei's opera, The Substitute Bride, made a troupe that couldn't sell tickets and was on the verge of disbanding an overnight sensation across Hong Kong.

A theater critic was awestruck: "She wielded a pair of scissors and precisely cut away the dross from traditional opera. What keen insight! What audacity!"

That year, the film Yan Shaowei wrote and directed herself broke out of Hong Kong, then Asia, and reached the whole world.

A famous Western director watched it and wished he could take her as his master: "The paths we're still trying to find, the techniques we're still exploring, she has already mastered completely!"

P.S.

1. The story focuses on her career.

2. I don't write historical figures or real events. This is entirely fictional, entirely fictional.

3. The protagonist's name comes from the line, "A three-foot sword in its case, the Shaowei star in the sky."

Theme: Sincerity deserves to be treasured
