In the year 2024, amidst a mound of official documents, Xu Chengjun was electrocuted and lost his life. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself transported back to 1979 as an educated youth assigned to work in a rural village in Anhui. From the jolting ride of a donkey cart along dusty country roads to standing behind the lectern of Fudan University’s Department of Chinese, Xu Chengjun found himself at the dawn of China’s era of reform and opening up. With a pen in his left hand, he unraveled the intricate codes of rural China; with a pen in his right, he sketched out the contours of his own golden age. “In this era, talent is the passport to walk with confidence!” Witness the journey of a man reborn, who, with a single pen, sails forth in 1979 to forge an epic tale of rising from obscurity to becoming a literary master..

[Time-travel + Showbiz + Feel-good Story + Childhood Sweethearts + Outwardly Rational and Clever but Inwardly Clueless and Direct Black-and-Red Female Celebrity VS Seemingly Aloof and Proud but Actually Gentle and Warm Award-winning Actor] After living freely and recklessly for eighteen years, Li Wanbai, ready to confess her love to her idol, blinked—and found herself ten years in the future. She had become a notorious internet celebrity, infamous across the web, and her story began with her waking up in a hospital, only to have her childhood friend—and longtime crush—Yu Baichuan hand her divorce papers.

Reborn into his school days, Lu Yuanqiu was tending to his family’s supermarket when he noticed, through the surveillance cameras, a delicate and beautiful girl stealthily taking items from the shelves. After capturing the evidence, Lu Yuanqiu brought her to the storeroom. “How much did you take?” he asked. The girl leaned against the wall, silent and withdrawn. “That’s all. There’s nothing else.” Lu Yuanqiu recognized her. Her name was Bai Qingxia, a student at his school. Aloof, unapproachable, the infamous ice-cold beauty—all these titles belonged to her. The girl worshipped by many as an untouchable goddess was, on this day, forced into a corner by him in such a humiliating manner. Lu Yuanqiu made up his mind: no matter what happened, he would not let her go today. In his previous life, Bai Qingxia had done the same thing in the supermarket, but out of consideration for her reputation, Lu Yuanqiu had chosen to turn a blind eye.

If only he had stopped her that day, the tragedy that followed might never have happened. So this time, he would delay her. He would give the school beauty a stern lesson. Gazing at the corner where the humiliated girl’s eyes were reddening, Lu Yuanqiu pressed further: “Are you sure that’s all? Your school uniform looks awfully bulky—are you hiding anything else in there?”.

After crossing into another world, all I wished for was a life as idle and carefree as a salted fish. Here, I am surrounded by warm-hearted and gentle family members, graceful and delicate maidens, and enchanting beauties of rare charm. There are those born with alluring elegance, numb to the trials of life, and petite neighbors who toil in the fields each day. Yet, all I desire is to stay close to my loving family, quietly living as a tranquil landlord without ambition. However, some matters cannot be avoided, and some people are impossible to resist..
