Synopsis

Content warnings:

This story borrows from existing works!

Read the explanation at the end of Chapter 1 before you start criticizing it.

[An unlucky nobody who returns after more than a decade in the industry, still a nonentity x a superstar who finally returns after years of riding around on an electric scooter for fun]

[One]

Jian Yunsheng can sing and dance, but the harder she tries, the unluckier she gets.

Her songs keep getting better, but she has terrible luck with people and gets cheated by her company. All those years of hard work go to waste.

Even after being cheated, she keeps releasing songs, churning out high-quality music at a pace that breaks your heart. But her songs become hits while she remains unknown.

Netizens joke that she has the talent of a queen of pop, yet is nowhere to be found in the entertainment industry. At last, the joke brings her some attention.

With everyone reminiscing about old songs, Jian Yunsheng quickly rides the wave and lands a variety show gig to make ends meet.

She thinks this will be the peak of her fame, but Heaven still isn't satisfied and decides to serve her another helping.

It comes out that Jian Yunsheng is the ex of a superstar. The fame she failed to catch more than a decade ago finally comes her way after their “breakup.”

[Two]

Jian Yunsheng and Quan Zhilong are notorious for being a terrible couple in the entertainment industry.

Because these two are always like this:

They fight yesterday, break up today, and make up tomorrow.

Everyone thinks they've broken up, only for them to get back together again.

Then they tell their friends:

“Did I ever say we broke up?”

Content warnings:

1. The heroine speaks her mind, and her sharp tongue is just as likely to hurt herself.

2. They break up but get married. Breaking up is just their way of flirting.

3. An unapologetically fun power fantasy in a parallel world.

4. All of BB survive. The reason is simple: for Quan Zhilong, the world's last VIP.

5. This story borrows from existing works!

6. Told in reverse order (Volumes 1 and 5: present; Volumes 2, 3, and 4: flashbacks).

This is a relatively new concept. I've read dragon fanfiction on various platforms, and this one seems highly recommended so far 😏 The only downside is that there's still a little bit of dragon content. Looking forward to more updates from the author!

It's really good! Hhhhhhhhhh I'm not a fan of the male lead, I clicked on the story out of curiosity, but it was unexpectedly interesting. The story is logically consistent, the writing is excellent, and the male lead is very naturally portrayed (poorly written celebrity fanfiction often has an awkward, detached feel, like watching someone have a wild dream, but this one doesn't). The female lead is also very charming—a mature and intelligent beauty. 🥰 Highly recommended!

Wow, this story is amazing! I love it so much! I hope Long Ge (Bigbang's nickname) is happy and joyful no matter which time or space he's in. I also hope I can get tickets to Bigbang's 20th anniversary concert this year! 😘

Good, good! The first book was great, and I like the setting of the second book even more. It's rare for Long Ge's writing to focus on the period after military service; both of these books are closer to the present timeline.

It's so good! The author writes incredibly well. The bickering and arguing between the two is quite funny, haha. My heart skipped a beat when the epilogue mentioned they were planning to divorce, but I'm still sure they won't, haha.

I like the premise of this story; the flashback narrative is reassuring. The female lead has a strong core; otherwise, given the dragon's nature, she would have suffered a lot.

Hurry up and start the third book, woohoo!

It wasn't as bad as I imagined. I didn't want to watch it because of the rating, but it was actually pretty good after watching it.

The whole article gradually gets better and better, and by the second half, I was constantly smiling like a doting aunt. It's really nice to have this kind of everyday interaction where you understand each other's every little thing and can laugh together anytime.
