Zhu Xiang, a professor of agriculture, found himself transported to the chaotic era of the Warring States in the Zhao Country. After much hardship, his life began to improve. His elder sister, who had run away with a wealthy merchant, left her nephew in his care, explaining that she had formed a relationship with another wealthy merchant and couldn’t take care of the child.... more>>

An indignant Zhu Xiang initially considered giving the child to someone else, but then he learned that the child’s name was Zheng, and his father was none other than Sun Yi, a noble from the Qin state. Zhu Xiang was bewildered. “My nephew is Ying Zheng? But my sister’s name isn’t Zhao Ji; it’s Chunhua!”

Determined not to let the future First Emperor disappear from history, Zhu Xiang decided to grit his teeth and tighten his belt to raise the young Emperor Qin. With a “ding,” the cultivation system came online, and he could exchange goodwill with historical figures for superior crops. Tears filled Zhu Xiang’s eyes as he kissed the young Emperor Qin on the forehead. “Truly worthy of being the Future First Emperor! You’re amazing! Just watch, your uncle will cultivate a vast empire for you!”

Many years later, Emperor Qin Shi Huang would still recall his childhood memories. His uncle held his small hand and walked through endless fields, pointing to the vast golden fields that stretched to the horizon. “Zheng, my nephew, your uncle has a dream – to plant superior crops across all the lands bathed in the sun and moonlight, so that everyone in the kingdom can have enough to eat.”

“Uncle, Zheng can conquer all the lands under the sun and moon and give them to you for farming, how does that sound?”

“Ah? Hahaha, that sounds great!” His uncle let out a hearty laugh, lifting him onto his shoulders. “Wherever Zheng’s kingdom expands, your uncle’s fields will follow.”

A large hands firmly holding onto the smaller one. “It’s a promise.”

Todo Arata, a corporate drone salaryman, died due to a mistake from god.
He was reincarnated in another world as an apology, and received the special perks ‘a strong body that won't get sick or hurt’, and ‘the ability to copy skills and magic just by seeing them’.... more>>

And so, the place where Arata was reincarnated turned out to be a place where races known as the strongest, that appeared in legends and myths, lived. Races like divine beasts, high elves, demon gods, ancient dragons, true ancestral vampires, and more.

This would normally be a dangerous place, but the body given to Arata by god was stronger than even the strongest races, meaning this danger was of no concern to him.

A giant boar was downed in one punch, and turned into a tasty prey, and an ancient dragon's breath felt pleasant. There was nothing that could hurt that invincible body.

And so, Arata, along with the girl and the so-called strongest species he met on the island, eats tasty food, makes a lot of ruckus, and relaxes while enjoying this second chance at life given to him by god. <<less

A big shot from a research institute in the apocalypse is reborn as a little village beauty in that era.... more>>

A few years later, the upper echelons of Kyoto's elite circles are shaken. The unruly and arrogant Crown Prince of the Gu family has actually taken a fancy to a village girl.

It is said that this village beauty is also the village bully, lazy, fierce, and uneducated, and her entire family is made up of oddballs!

How can a village girl be compared to the young ladies of the upper class? Everyone mocks Song Chu.

However…

Big shots in animal husbandry and planting; a magnate in the catering industry; the founder of an educational institution; the richest person in the country... one after another, they declare, "I owe all my success today to my Little Sister, Song Chu!"

Everyone is collectively dumbfounded: Really? We don't believe it!

But then, on the same day, the country's top biopharmaceutical research institute officially announces: "Congratulations to Dr. Song Chu for winning the International Pharmaceutical Gold Award, and thank you to Dr. Song for leading us to become the world's most advanced pharmaceutical organization."

This is immediately followed by an article lavishly praising her, along with a photo of her holding the trophy.

Looking at the fair-skinned, beautiful, and exceptionally elegant Dr. Song, everyone's jaws drop. What happened to the rustic and uneducated village girl? This is clearly a beautiful, cool, and talented winner in life…

At the same time, the Crown Prince of the Gu family, who is also a tech giant, approaches Song Chu: "How about taking responsibility for me first..."

✿✿✿

In a world ravaged by the apocalypse, Song Chu, a brilliant but solitary biologist, met an untimely end. However, her story didn't end there. She awakens in 1975, in the body of a notorious village bully in rural China, a woman with the same name but a vastly different reputation. This Song Chu is known for her laziness, fierce temper, and a hopeless infatuation with the handsome educated youth, Gu Yue.

Adding to the bizarre situation, Song Chu discovers that her state-of-the-art laboratory from the apocalypse has inexplicably followed her, split in half, with the other half now residing within Gu Yue's mind. To regain her full laboratory and understand this strange phenomenon, she must cooperate with the very man her host body once harassed.

As Song Chu navigates this new reality, she decides to use her knowledge and skills from the future to improve the lives of her newfound family and the impoverished village. She sets her sights on revolutionizing the village's agricultural practices, starting with an oil pressing workshop and dreaming of larger ventures like a chicken farm and food processing factory. Along the way, she confronts her host body's past misdeeds, reforms her troublemaking brothers, and deals with the jealous schemes of her former best friend.

Amidst her ambitious plans, Song Chu finds herself drawn to the intellectual and enigmatic Gu Yue. Their forced partnership blossoms into a complex relationship as they work together, sharing knowledge and challenging each other's perspectives. As Song Chu strives to uplift her village and secure a brighter future, she must also navigate the delicate balance between her growing connection with Gu Yue and her desire to remain independent. <<less

Everyone rushes to gawk!

Then someone says: "Today, a breathtakingly beautiful acting dean came to the academy, and she looks a bit like her."

"Yesterday, my father invited an exceptionally capable and extremely beautiful older sister to help solve a case, and she looks exactly like her."

When Jiang Tingzhou is reborn, the first two things he does are: quit his job and break up immediately.... more>>

In his past life, after being lost at age five and then found again by the Jiang family—a family famous for their culinary legacy—he spent nearly half his life fighting against Jiang You, the adopted child who had taken his place. This false young master was deeply favored by fate, as if born under a halo of divine luck.

Jiang Tingzhou worked himself to the bone, fighting tooth and nail to prove that this little green tea (pretentious schemer) was inferior to him in every way.

He won the prestigious God of Cooking competition.

He brought Jiang Group’s restaurant chain to new heights.

Even the person Jiang You longed for but could never have fell in love with Jiang Tingzhou instead.

He poured every ounce of effort into proving that Jiang You wasn’t naturally worthy of love or admiration—there was no “main character aura.” As long as you worked hard enough, anything could be changed. He believed everyone should prefer him.

But in the end, his parents called him aggressive, his old friends drifted away, his coworkers talked behind his back about how cold and unapproachable he was, and the lover he’d forced to stay eventually left him.

Only his career had turned out well.

Yet just as he began to taste success, Jiang Tingzhou died from overwork. All he could do was watch helplessly as Jiang You played the part of a tragic, returning white moonlight and smoothly inherited everything he had built.

Then he found himself reborn—back at twenty-two, sick with a fever, still working nonstop, and being gaslit and bullied by his boss.

Wait a second… who even wants to be reborn?!

Jiang Tingzhou: [Dead fish eyes] .jpg

He’s officially given up on his luckless life. Deep down, he realizes that being reborn means nothing. Nothing he does ends well. No matter how hard he fights, it’s all for nothing. What’s the point of grinding if the end result is just emptiness?

Love, money, success—it’s all external. The only thing that’s truly yours is your body.

So he finds a quiet place to lie flat and gives up. All he wants now is three good meals a day. To eat well and live peacefully.

But strangely enough, once Jiang Tingzhou stops trying, people around him start to regret things. It’s like everyone suddenly starts liking him again.

Later, he even goes viral as the internet’s most desirable food vlogger?

From the Gong’s POV:

Lu Baiyu went through a breakup that felt like falling off a cliff.

In their chat history, Jiang Tingzhou had always been the one sending dozens of messages, chatting nonstop in a sweet, clingy way.

“Hubby, miss you ❤️”

“Dreamed about you last night, I really really want to see you.”

“I made a new dish!”

“[Photo] ”

“When are you coming back to Yongqing? I want to cook for you.”

Lu Baiyu had been away on a business trip, working nonstop. He saw the messages but didn’t have time to reply—he was used to it.

Then, after finishing an international meeting, he opened his phone and saw a new message from Jiang Tingzhou:

“Hi. We’re breaking up. Bye.”

Lu Baiyu: …?

He sent a question mark.

But the chat showed a red exclamation mark.

Just like that, he was blocked—out of nowhere.

Pairing:

Former top achiever turned slacker culinary genius shou × aloof iceberg-type gong who goes feral when he loses his lover

Notes:

Rebirth, shou is a former overachiever who now lies flat; gong is a “white-cut-black” (appears pure, actually ruthless) top who’s been in love with the shou across both lives.

Plot-heavy with dramatic emotional lines. Career storyline takes up a good portion. The gong’s memories of his past life will gradually return. There are lots of misunderstandings, so expect some intense “chasing the wife back from the crematorium” drama. And yes—the crematorium part is serious.

The shou seems universally disliked, but is actually a total heartthrob. <<less

With that, this is a story about a boy who pushes ahead with his sensitive boy ways, living a sensitive boy-like life despite transferring to another world, and even despite getting a cheat, he doesn't care at all and continues down the sensitive boy road and enjoys the life of a sensitive boy. <<less

Chen Ran, who lost her sense of taste and was kicked out of her home, obtained the Chef God system. As long as she works various jobs, she can restore her taste and learn stronger cooking skills.

Such a great deal—let’s go!

【Kindergarten Job】

Not only did the kids’ appetites improve, but even the parents started eating better.

More than two hundred months-old kids occasionally tasted the kindergarten meals and voluntarily joined the kitchen internship.

What? You say you want to borrow our kid just to try the kindergarten food?

【Police Station Job】

Ever since Chef Chen joined the kitchen, overtime complaints dropped, and officers felt happier on duty.

Even prisoners’ mouths opened more easily.

Wait, you want to confess? Really? But the chef’s off today... Wait! Confessions can’t be taken back!

【Hired by a Variety Show Crew】

It’s supposed to be a celebrity-centered cooking show, so why is everyone eyeing the staff meals?

Wait, that’s the staff lunchbox, Your Majesty!

Why is there someone sneaking around the kitchen? Turns out the singing king is stealing lunchboxes!

The drooling on the livestream was all acting; stealing lunchboxes after wrap-up is the real deal!

Every time Chen Ran works, her cooking attracts foodies like crazy.

As the youngest top star on the Chef List, other chefs can pay to reserve or even buy spots from scalpers, but only her dishes are impossible to try without luck.

Kids sneak into kindergarten, people sneak in to work secretly, even disguise themselves as staff.

Just when everyone finally gets in, someone finds out the chef has moved on to another job! <<less

Beside the Qinhuai River, the moonlight was like silver. Beneath the peony blossoms, Chu Qiu leaned close to the beauties, vowing to live a life of romance, drunkenly resting his head on a beauty's lap, and laughing at the affairs of the mortal world. But fate is fickle, and in the end, he couldn't withstand King Yama's cold scythe. His soul, like a fallen leaf returning to its roots, was silently drawn into the depths of the Underworld.... more>>

Entering the Netherworld, he obtained the supreme treasure, the "Book of Life and Death." One day in the Netherworld was equivalent to a thousand years in the world. When he opened his eyes again, he had already boarded a broken ship of transmigration.

At the awakening ceremony, he was full of anticipation, but failed midway. In despair, he re-entered the Netherworld, and after a bloody battle, he finally contracted the divine beast Diting.

Returning to the human world, he found that the road ahead was not as smooth as he had imagined. Former enemies, harboring resentment, stirred up trouble like venomous snakes in the dark night. Former friends, having succeeded in their awakening, discarded him like worn-out shoes, watching with cold eyes. Fortunately, the mentor showed concern, the city lord concealed for him, and the principal helped him soar.

Exotic beasts, Otherworlders, traitors, mortal enemies make the road difficult. Family, friendship, love, cherished thoughts can cross the bridge of life and death.

One man, two beasts, three cups of wine. Respect for heaven, respect for earth, respect for beauty.

I, Chu Qiu, today open the gate of heaven with beasts! I invite you all to witness! <<less

Because of my past actions, my subordinates lack discipline compared to my brothers! At this rate, it’s a straight path to the execution ending!

From now on, I’m going to discipline you into a good boy, and don’t you dare underestimate the big brother of seven!

This is a record of the struggles of a motherly guy. <<less

The familiar Beijing accent rang in her ears: “Are you buying it or not?”
She dropped the sweet potato and bolted straight for the train station.... more>>

According to the novel’s plot, she would soon divorce her husband temporarily just to return to the city. But at the moment of divorce, her cousin Chen Lu would seize the chance to marry her ex-husband, bear him children, and bask in his rise to success—while her own twins would end up imprisoned for embezzling company funds.

The book’s tone, full of superiority thinly veiled as pity, reads:
”Gu Shunhua wasn’t truly evil—just a little petty, a little shortsighted, the typical selfishness of a small-minded woman. Traumatized by her time in the countryside, she resorted to desperate measures just to return to the city… and lost a perfectly good marriage in the process.”

Gu Shunhua: To hell with that!

She charged back to the countryside, scooped her twins into her arms, and declared,
”Wherever Mama goes, you go too. The three of us will never be separated again!”

Ren Jingnian, fiddling with the radio, looked up: “Why are you back already?”
Staring at the man who would one day dote on the novel’s heroine while ignoring his own children, Gu Shunhua straightened her back and said,
”You wish I’d never come back? Want to mistreat my son and daughter?”

Ren Jingnian: “…?”
Gu Shunhua: “Fine, let’s divorce. I get the kids—you get the donkey.”

Ren Jingnian: ... What did I even do wrong?

Meanwhile, Chen Lu—who admired her superior so much she wrote an entire romance novel inspired by him—also found herself transported into the book.
 Now, with the tide of Reform and Opening just beginning, the dashing young tycoon she modeled her hero after may be married, but he’s still full of promise…
She thinks: This is my chance!

On top of that, there were floods and an impending famine. No money, no food—how were they supposed to escape?

Immediate Priority: Stay alive!

Xie Qi was an unlucky fellow with a tough life. While out on an errand, he first encountered bandits, then was swindled, leaving him penniless. He sought refuge at his aunt’s house, only to unexpectedly discover that his long-unseen fiancée cousin was already pregnant.

Twenty years later, Shen Yunxuan and her husband became billionaires, while Shen Yunrui's husband was left in a vegetative state, and the once-glorious family fell apart.

After her rebirth, Shen Yunxuan finds herself before their weddings, and Shen Yunrui suddenly insists on marrying the savior while urging Shen Yunxuan to marry into the wealthiest family. Moved, their family wholeheartedly supports the swap.
