Reincarnated Chu Qing never wanted to become a superstar. He had only two simple wishes in life:

To marry an ordinary wife who truly loves him and live a stable, peaceful life.

To quietly amass wealth.

Unfortunately, both of these dreams were destined to be shattered.

Fame as a celebrated writer, poet, king of pop, multiple-time movie and television emperor, and box office legend was inexplicably thrust upon him, completely destroying his plans.

“What? I’m a superstar?”

“What? Another award in Berlin? Not going.”

“An excuse? What excuse? Oh, I’ll say my stomach hurts that day. No way I can make it…”

At the tender age of five, Shen Guiyan was able to recite a thousand-word essay, at the age of six she played the zither and composed her own poems, at the age of seven she burned incense and became a poet, and at the age of eight she was betrothed to the son of the prime minister. Everyone said she was born of a Phoenix Jade* and had a good destiny.

But then a woman arrives from the modern era and turns her direct sister from a barbarian to a witty one, stealing her husband and harming her birth mother, and toppling her from the sky, laughing wildly: “How can a mere feudal woman compete with a modern 21st century woman?”

Conspiracy and deceptions changed her fate, her growing belly ruined her marriage, caused her to be married to a simple merchant’s son, who ruined her on the wedding night, yet all of this just helped to fulfill a strange destiny.

According to a nutcase monk, her fate will be a great disaster when she reaches maturity, a great joy when she reaches her second decade, and a great sorrow when her hair turns white.

Shen Guiyan does not believe in fate, she only believes that man will prevail over God.

Those who owe her will have to pay her back. Those who have harmed her will eventually go to hell. Is it something great to cross over? To be reborn? Even if you have ten or eight golden fingers**, I will chop them all up for you!

“Your sister is actually a kind person.” Gu Chaobei said this.

“What’s so kind about her?” Shen Guiyan sneered coldly.

“At least she let me meet you. If I hadn’t met you, I don’t know how boring life would have been.”

*Phoenix Jade: Phoenix carved from a Jade, symbolizing outstanding talents and superior abilities.

**Golden Fingers: A gold finger is basically a cheat power/ability.

After crossing into a parallel world, Lin Xia became a D-list celebrity teetering on the edge of obscurity. As everyone knows, the life of an 18th-tier star is tougher than a stray dog’s.

Life was hard, so Lin Xia got creative. To survive, he dove into a series of unconventional side gigs:

Day 1: House call to unlock a door—earned a hefty ¥200.

Day 2: Fortune-telling stall—raked in ¥500.

Day 3: Street-vending cartoon underwear—pocketed ¥800.

Day 4: Cooking massive village feasts—bagged ¥1,000.

Day 5: Playing the suona (Chinese horn) at funerals—earned ¥500 and scored a free feast.

Day 6: Retrieving a body from the Yellow River—rewarded ¥10,000.

Day 7: Part-time work at a crematorium—netted ¥1,000.

Day 8: Test-sleeping in a haunted house—banked ¥10,000.

Day 9: Professional mourning—made ¥500.

But when his side hustles went viral, fans were utterly dumbfounded: “Are you even a celebrity anymore?!”

After Duan Mingxi married Gao Zhan, she followed the rules diligently, adhered to the three obediences and four virtues, and showed respect and filial piety to her parents-in-law.

Gao Zhan helped the new emperor ascend the throne, earning the merit of following the dragon (supporting the new ruler). His first action was to divorce her under the pretense of disrespecting his parents-in-law and having no children. He then petitioned the emperor to grant him a marriage with the woman he truly loved.

After ten years of marriage, she remained a virg*n yet was burdened with the disgraceful reputation that could drive someone to their death!

Enduring a decade of humiliation had become a cruel joke. Presented with a letter of divorce, she plunged a dagger straight into Gao Zhan’s chest and set a blazing fire to burn the entire Duke Gao mansion—those who had feasted on her misery—into ashes.

She vowed to drag the entire Duke Gao mansion down with her in death!

When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the time before she married Gao Zhan.

She was the eldest legitimate daughter of the Dingyuan Marquis household, who had been lost outside for over a decade. Upon being reunited with her family, she faced a cold and unloving mother, an indifferent father, a malicious younger sister, and a worthless brother.

This time, she tore apart everyone’s schemes, rejected the marriage proposal from the Gao family, and instead aligned herself with Rui Wang.

Everyone said she was ruthless, heartless, and utterly devoid of morality—a venomous lotus who lied through her teeth and committed countless wicked deeds!

Duan Mingxi was determined to see for herself how Gao Zhan could gain favor without the rich dowry she once provided.

Without the wealth of her adoptive parents, how could the Dingyuan Marquis household repeat the splendor and glory of the past?

In this life, the Gao family could forget about achieving the merit of following the dragon. She would support the crown prince’s greatest rival to ascend the throne.

The merit of following the dragon? She will claim it for herself.

And the future emperor? He will be hers too!

In an accident, Si Si lost her parents and took over their family’s debt-ridden shopping mall.

That night, two “uninvited guests” appear in her room.

The uninvited guests are a pair of hungry kids from ancient times. Unexpectedly, the skinny and hungry kids have an uncle who was a prince and a grandmother who was an imperial concubine.

Because of a large-scale drought in their dynasty, countless people starved to death.

Si Si took a large amount of food from the supermarket to trade with Prince Rong. While saving countless people, she also used the antiques she obtained to save her family’s business.

She thought she could rely on the shopping mall left by her parents, and at the same time, she could communicate with the two ancient kids and live a beautiful life.

A sudden accident broke all of Si Si’s dreams.

She thought she died, but when she opened her eyes, she saw a magnified version of a handsome man in an ancient costume in front of her……

Lin Yuxin transmigrated into a book and became the real daughter of the Shangshu family, who had been swapped at birth.

In the original plot, she was framed by the fake daughter, trusted the wrong people, and ultimately led her entire family to ruin.

Now that Lin Yuxin had arrived, she was determined to change her family’s tragic fate and lay the foundation for a better life.

So, she first went to find her mother to reveal the truth:

“Mother, the fake daughter you’ve raised for years is actually Father’s illegitimate child!”

As a result, her mother immediately divorced her scumbag husband, leaving him penniless!

Then, she went to warn her eldest brother: “Oh, my poor brother! You were set up by that scumbag father and the woman you loved. In order to save her, you ended up losing both your legs and lived a lonely, miserable life!”

Upon hearing this, her brother immediately entered the palace to request an imperial decree to lead a crusade against the bandits…

After crossing over, she became a disregarded and abandoned concubine in a cold palace.

What? Her living expenses were cut off in the palace?

No problem, she had a spatial artifact, so she didn’t worry about food.

What? The emperor turned out to be a greasy, fat middle-aged man?

No problem, she earned enough money by selling illicit books and planned to leave the palace.

What? The incredibly handsome man in front of her is actually the emperor?

His enlarged charming face dangerously approached her and he asked, “Beloved, where are you going?”

Jiang You never dreamed she would survive the claws of zombies only to be betrayed by the very family she protected.

Years later, she destroyed the experimental facility that imprisoned her.

Those who sold her out? Dead!

The base that betrayed her? Obliterated!

Who waits for the next life to settle their scores?

With her revenge complete, Jiang You exhausted her powers and self-detonated, but unexpectedly, she was reborn—half a month before the apocalypse broke out!

This time, she vowed to take back everything that was hers…

Stock up on food first, guns later—when the apocalypse comes, stay calm.

But just as she was ready to live quietly and hoard supplies forever, a tiny bottle cap fell from the sky. That’s when she learned her world was actually a book, and she was the villain who tragically died in the story?

If that’s the case, don’t blame her for being ruthless!

Sacrifice the heroine, unleash unlimited power!

…

When zombies erupted, other survivors were frantically fleeing.

Jiang You: “Hey, zombie up front, wait a second. Is that brain of yours ripe yet?”

While other survivors fought tooth and nail over scraps of food:

Jiang You: “Hotpot, BBQ, river snail rice noodles, roast duck, fried chicken, or Buddha Jumps Over the Wall… What should I eat today?”

When other survivors tried to use moral blackmail:

Jiang You: “Sorry, I don’t have morals. You can’t blackmail me.”

Ye Caiping opened her eyes, only to find herself a discarded wife, cast out after being divorced. To make matters worse, her sister-in-law back at her maiden home was sharpening her knives, ready to pounce.

It wasn’t that her sister-in-law was overly harsh or intolerant—it was simply because the original owner of this body was a piece of work!

How bad was it? Well, take a look:

To build a house for her husband’s family, as long as her maiden family had even a single grain of surplus food, she would sniff it out like a rabid dog and scavenge it all away.

To ensure her mother-in-law could eat meat every day, she even dug out the half-coin her parents had carefully hidden away in a mouse hole.

To support her husband’s education, she acted like a crazed shrew—rolling on the ground, kicking up a fuss, and forcing her nephew to drop out of school so her family could cover her husband’s tuition fees.

Was this a collapse of morality or just sheer lunacy?

In the end, her husband achieved his dream of passing the imperial exam and becoming a scholar, while she, fulfilling everyone’s expectations, was *graciously* divorced and sent packing!

…

After taking over this body, Ye Caiping rolled up her sleeves and got to work—not because she was some saint who loved being exploited, but because win-win cooperation was far more profitable!

Thanks to her efforts, her family became so wealthy they practically oozed oil, and every single member reached the pinnacle of success!

The entire village thrived together, with everyone marching toward prosperity—even the mangy dog at the village entrance was now feasting on meat twice a day.

Meanwhile, her ex-husband and former mother-in-law, eating worse than that dog, were already bawling their eyes out in the outhouse.

Bi Qiao’an lay motionless in the icy snow, watching helplessly as the falling flakes slowly buried her. As her consciousness faded, her mind drifted back to the three arduous years she had spent struggling to survive in the apocalypse.

She felt her life slipping away, and a sense of relief washed over her. At last, she wouldn’t have to face this harsh world alone any longer. With a heavy heart, she slowly closed her eyes, a single tear rolling down her cheek.

As she teetered on the brink of death, a familiar voice, filled with regret and sorrow, called out her name. At first, she thought it was a mere hallucination, but the sound of someone digging through the snow to reach her seemed all too real.

Mustering the last of her strength, she forced her eyes open, desperate to catch one final glimpse of the face that had never left her heart. However, when her vision finally focused, she found herself in a completely different reality—she had been reborn.

—

Bi Qiao’an, who survived until the third year of the apocalypse, found herself reborn a year before the catastrophe began. Carrying the memories of her previous life’s weaknesses, vulnerabilities, and desperate struggle for survival, she was now armed with the knowledge of the impending disasters. With this foresight, she made a resolute decision to seek the protection and support of her nation.

Shen Yanming, her long-lost childhood friend whose voice had called out to her in the final moments in her previous life, had also been reborn. Reunited in this new life, he not only gifted her a magical space but also assisted her in securing employment and amassing crucial supplies. He stood steadfastly by her side as they navigated the perils of the impending apocalypse together.

However, as they faced the challenges head-on, they discovered that the apocalypse in this life had taken a different course from the one they had previously experienced. The world was not only plagued by global rains and droughts but also by parasitic diseases, the devastating HZ virus, locust plagues, earthquakes, and solar mutations.

Amidst the chaos, the Alliance and the Guardian Team emerged, better prepared and no longer as helpless as they had been in Bi Qiao’an’s previous life. The couple, witnessing the unity and resilience of the Qinghua Nation, felt a profound sense of hope and belief that by holding fast to their country, they would undoubtedly survive the apocalypse.

Years later, as the apocalypse finally drew to a close, Shen Yanming embraced his beloved wife and whispered, “Shouldn’t we consider having another child?”

With a playful pout, Bi Qiao’an replied, “Aren’t two enough?”
