You'd Better Regret Breaking Up with Me: My Silver Hairpin Connects the Past and Present

[Modern office worker X ancient female general from a military family], past and present connected + stockpiling supplies + infrastructure building + face-slapping + conquest

Li Yanchu accidentally discovered that his family's ancestral hairpin could connect to the ancient world two thousand years ago. Through it, he met Li Jiyue, an ancient female general on the run.

Li Jiyue was the daughter of a high-ranking general, but her father was falsely accused and her entire family executed. The loyal soldiers who survived followed her through the desert, struggling to stay alive. Their food was running out, and her men were dying of thirst. Faced with utter desperation, she prayed to Heaven for salvation.

Li Yanchu reached out to help, using modern supplies to save her and her army. Through the hairpin, he sent her modern water, food, and all kinds of resources needed for war.

He also shared modern strategic thinking and technology, helping Li Jiyue reorganize her troops, stockpile food, recruit soldiers, and establish a military manufacturing base, rapidly boosting her fighting strength. With modern equipment on the ancient battlefield, Li Jiyue became unstoppable. Her army grew mighty as a tiger's, gradually crushing the enemy forces.

Meanwhile, Li Yanchu ran into trouble in his modern life. To repay him, Li Jiyue sent ancient treasures through the hairpin: gold, silver, jewelry, paintings, calligraphy, and porcelain. They helped Li Yanchu turn his life around and rise to prominence in the business world.

Once Li Jiyue had restored order and was preparing to become emperor, she discovered that everyone was calling her the empress.
