In 2016, Guan starred in the family drama Papa Can You Hear Me Sing, a remake of the classic Taiwanese film of the same name.[13] She then starred in the romance drama To Be A Better Man.[14] Both series earned high ratings in China, and Guan won the Best Supporting Actress award at the Shanghai Television Festival for her performance in To Be a Better Man.[15] She also starred in her first adult leading role in the fantasy drama Novoland: Castle in the Sky,[16] and won the Best Actress award at the 7th Macau International Television Festival for her performance.[17]

In 2017, it was announced that Guan was cast in Zhang Yimou's upcoming film, Shadow.[18] The same year, she played the female lead in xianxia drama Xuan-Yuan Sword: Han Cloud and romance comedy series Love of Aurora.[19][20]
