The world of film and television begins with Zhou Bingkun in the human world.

Zhou Bingkun and Zheng Juan's engagement was quite simple.

It was just a simple table set up at home.

Because Zhou Bingkun only called out to Qiao Chunyan, Xiao Guoqing, and Sun Ganchao.

As for Zheng Juan, apart from her mother and younger brother, she had no other relatives or friends.

There are only a few people in total, so a simple table is more than enough.

Qiao Chunyan looked at Zheng Juan sitting next to Zhou Bingkun with a complicated expression.

Qiao Chunyan grew up with Zhou Bingkun and fell in love with him at a young age. Even after she understood the difference between men and women, she longed to marry Zhou Bingkun.

Unfortunately, Zhou Bingkun's mother, Li Suhua, became a vegetable, adding an extra burden to the family.

At her mother's urging, Qiao Chunyan gave up the idea of ​​marrying Zhou Bingkun.

Qiao Chunyan originally planned to spend the rest of her life with Zhou Bingkun as friends, or even as siblings.

But now, seeing Zheng Juan sitting next to Zhou Bingkun with a happy smile on her face, she felt a pang of sadness and even a touch of bitterness in her heart.

Raising a glass of wine, Qiao Chunyan stood up: "Bingkun, Zheng Juan, congratulations! May you have a long and happy marriage and many children!"

Zheng Juan blushed upon hearing this, and Zhou Bingkun couldn't help but laugh: "Chunyan, we're only engaged now, isn't it a bit too early to have a child?"

"Well, anyway, I wish you all the best, I'll drink it!" Qiao Chunyan said, downing the two ounces of liquor in her glass in one gulp.

"Thank you, I'll drink it too!" Zhou Bingkun smiled, downed two ounces of liquor, and then quickly picked up his chopsticks and took a couple of bites of food.

After Qiao Chunyan, Sun Ganchao and Xiao Guoqing also poured wine into Zhou Bingkun's mouth. Before long, Zhou Bingkun felt a little dizzy.

Seeing this, Zheng Juan quickly helped Zhou Bingkun fend off the drinks, which drew laughter from Xiao Guoqing and Sun Ganchao.

After the engagement banquet, Sun Ganchao and Xiao Guoqing, two grown men, left drunk and unsteady. When Zheng Juan, Old Mrs. Zheng, and Zheng Guangming left, Zhou Bingkun wanted to take them home. However, Zhou Bingkun had been given a lot of alcohol and was feeling dizzy and lightheaded. If he really went to take Zheng Juan home, Zheng Juan would worry that something might happen to him on his way back, so she firmly refused.

Having no other choice, Zhou Bingkun could only escort Zheng Juan and the other two to their doorstep.

Feeling dizzy and lightheaded, Zhou Bingkun leaned against the door frame, watching Zheng Juan and the other two walk further and further away until they disappeared from sight, before finally turning around and going home.

"Bingkun!"

Hearing the voice, Zhou Bingkun looked over and saw Qiao Chunyan, whose cheeks were flushed from drunkenness: "Chunyan, you haven't gone home yet. You've had quite a bit to drink. Go home and get some sleep. You have to go to work tomorrow, so don't be late."

"Bingkun, do you know that I like you?" Qiao Chunyan stared intently at Zhou Bingkun and questioned him.

Zhou Bingkun paused for a moment, then chuckled, "Chunyan, you've had too much to drink. Go home now."

"Zhou Bingkun! I'm telling the truth, I like you, I don't believe you don't know. And now you're engaged to that Zheng Juan—" Qiao Chunyan's big eyes turned a little red.

"The way you're talking makes it sound like I'm a heartless man. Don't you know what's going on between us? Alright, let's go home." Zhou Bingkun shook his head. Even though he was drunk and somewhat out of control, he still didn't want to say anything too harsh.

After all, although Qiao Chunyan didn't want to marry Zhou Bingkun because of Li Suhua, she still helped Zhou Bingkun a lot later on, and she even sent him any good food she had at home.

In terms of friendship alone, Qiao Chunyan did a pretty good job.

"I—I know, I know. My mom said that Aunt Li has become a vegetable. From now on, Aunt Li will be a burden to you. Your brother went to another place, and your sister went to the countryside. They may never come back in this lifetime. In that case, you will still have to take care of Aunt Li alone. If I really marry you, my life will be over." Qiao Chunyan said drunkenly.

"Aunt Qiao is right," Zhou Bingkun nodded. If he hadn't transmigrated, Li Suhua would have become a burden solely on Zhou Bingkun.

"But I regret it! When I saw you and Zheng Juan get engaged, I felt terrible, like my heart was choked up, you know? I regret it!" Qiao Chunyan shouted loudly at Zhou Bingkun.

If it were the original Zhou Bingkun, Qiao Chunyan would have been able to resolutely change her mind and stop bothering him after deciding not to marry him.

However, the Zhou Bingkun of today is not the same Zhou Bingkun of the past.

Although Zhou Bingkun doesn't seem to have anything particularly good about him now, he is indeed very different from the Zhou Bingkun of the past.

Firstly, there's his temperament. As a person from a later era, or even a time traveler, his temperament, his views and attitudes towards things are very different from those of people in this era. In the eyes of some, this is undoubtedly a kind of charm.

Later, Zhou Bingkun started submitting articles to the newspaper again.

Although the newspaper did not pay Zhou Bingkun for his articles, and he had no way to make a living from them, the fact that his articles were published was itself a testament to his talent.

Women of this era, or rather, the vast majority of women, have little resistance to cultured intellectuals.

For example, Zhou Bingkun's older sister, Zhou Rong, was sent a long distance to see Feng Huacheng off because he was a poet.

Zhou Bingkun may not have written poetry, but the fact that his articles were published in newspapers already shows that he was a cultured person.

Qiao Chunyan was shocked by Zhou Bingkun's change. As time went by, her disbelief and shock gradually changed.

Qiao Chunyan herself was unaware that her feelings for Zhou Bingkun were gradually changing. It wasn't until now, with Zhou Bingkun and Zheng Juan getting engaged, that the emotions that Qiao Chunyan had been holding back suddenly exploded. Only then did she realize that she actually cared a lot about Zhou Bingkun and liked him very much.

So, emboldened by alcohol, Qiao Chunyan confessed everything to Zhou Bingkun.

"Chunyan, what's the point of saying this now? Zheng Juan and I are already engaged, and we'll get married next year and have children. It's pointless for you to say these things now." Zhou Bingkun looked at Qiao Chunyan very seriously.

Qiao Chunyan paused for a moment, then slowly nodded: "Yes, you and Zheng Juan are already engaged! There's no point in me bringing this up again."

"Alright, you've had too much to drink and are talking nonsense. Go home and get a good night's sleep. You'll be fine when you wake up tomorrow." After saying that, Zhou Bingkun turned around and went back to his home.

Qiao Chunyan stood outside in a daze for a while, then forcefully wiped away her tears, turned around, and strode back to her home.
