The Country Crow's Mouth Is Actually a Lucky Star

Lin Xiaoman, a country girl, comes to the city to live with her cousin. Her straightforwardness makes her "reminders" sound like "gloomy predictions," earning her the title of "crow's mouth" from neighbors and colleagues: She says Aunt Zhang's fish will jump out of the tank, but it actually saves a cat that fell into the tank; She says her cousin's takeout will spill, so she picks up an unspilled backup in advance; She tells her supervisor not to drink iced drinks to avoid stomachache, then hands over hot ginger tea to ease the pain. It's only when everyone finds out that her "crow's mouth" is a "warning skill" learned from her grandma: The fish would jump because she saw a crack in the tank; The takeout would spill because she noticed the delivery guy riding unsteadily; The stomachache was because she saw the supervisor staying up late. All the "bad things" didn't happen because she quietly fixed them. The girl once called "unlucky" finally becomes the "lucky star" in everyone's eyes.

The Retracer

Investigative journalist Lin Shen has never accepted his sister’s "accidental fall" death—he hung up on her desperate call an hour before the incident, all because he was rushing a draft.

On his first trip back, Lin discovers his sister’s death is linked to the health product fraud she was investigating, and the mastermind is his father’s old comrade. When he tries to stop the tragedy, a terrifying chain reaction unfolds: his sister survives but becomes an accomplice to the fraud; his father is caught in a lawsuit for covering up his friend… He gradually realizes that "retracing" isn’t redemption—it’s a game against his own guilt and fate. How much must he sacrifice to get a "regret-free" ending?
