   You absolutely must have this book!!! Gu Nian'an redeemed everyone except herself, but Fu Xiuyuan's appearance redeemed her. **Warnings:** The romance is super sweet, but the family relationships will be somewhat angsty; there are entertainment industry elements, and the main couple will participate in a variety show later on; the protagonist suffers from depression due to family reasons and is also in poor health, so there will be scenes of him being sickly; the protagonist has a slight "popularity" attribute; there are no side couples, so proceed with caution if you're sensitive to these! [1V1, virginity, mutual pampering, mutual redemption, happy ending, sweet and sour plot, no angst in the romance] Gu Nian'an transmigrates into a novel about a wealthy family's power struggles, becoming a disliked 18th-tier celebrity who is contract-married to the male lead.

During a game on the show, Gu Nian'an is asked to message the person on her contact list to borrow 100,000 yuan, but receives no response for a long time. Everyone is waiting to see what happens. The phone rang, announcing a million yuan in Alipay. Audience: ??? Guest: ??? Host: ??? The next second, the phone rang again. Gu Nian'an instinctively answered, only to hear, "Honey, I'm in a meeting. I just saw it. Ask me if you need more." She had intended to quietly wait three years to collect the money and leave, but the other person held her captive. Fu Xiuyuan: "Don't leave me." Looking into his gloomy eyes, Gu Nian'an silently put down her packed luggage. After learning who the young man's marriage partner was, everyone was pessimistic about the relationship. However, on a reality show featuring couples, everyone watched the man who panicked after his partner was out of sight for ten minutes. … 6.
