I Beg You, Koi Movie Queen, Get a Divorce

My next novel is Pearl in My Arms. Click into my author page and add it to your collection! What is it like to have the luck of a koi? Lin Jing Li says the pressure is immense! Famous brands beg you to be their spokesperson, celebrities kneel to work with you, keyboard warriors vanish, and every day a crowd comments on your Weibo, begging you to notice them. Finding even one hater to motivate you is a pipe dream. Anything you do gets shared by the entire country, and you come with trending topics and buzz built in. The pressure is truly overwhelming! And that's not all. Business magnates, award-winning actors, and rich, handsome men all scheme every day to make you theirs. Outwitting them and fighting back is truly overwhelming! Luckily, she meets someone with the same lucky disposition. Since that's the case, why don't you help me shoulder some of this pressure? But wait, weren't we both supposed to be lucky koi? Why have you been secretly working hard behind my back? Isn't that going too far! Another version (from the male lead's perspective) The famous lucky-koi actress Lin Jing Li announces her marriage on Weibo. Her husband is a business tycoon no one could have guessed, a man so powerful that a twitch of his finger could make the whole country tremble: Gu Zhuan Yun. One is a "lucky koi," the other a "bringer of good fortune." They seem like a decent match. Netizens joke that once these two lucky koi join forces, they'll be invincible. But then they realize they were wrong. Ever since this "lucky couple" got together, Lin Jing Li's lucky-koi powers have changed. She can no longer bring good fortune, and she often disappears without a trace. Her fans spend all day wailing that the man has locked up their lucky koi. How can this be? The lucky koi belongs to everyone. Don't even think about keeping her all to yourself! Gu Zhuan Yun has been in a terrible mood lately. A topic appeared online and quickly grew extremely popular, staying on the trending list for ages. He has people take it down, but it pops right back up before long, giving him a massive headache. The topic is: When will the lucky koi and the bringer of good fortune get divorced! Divorce? What divorce? Why would he divorce the wife he won fair and square? Only an idiot would get divorced! He thinks he'll just have to work a little harder. Once his wife is pregnant with his baby, he'll have the child to thank for his status, and then let's see who dares to urge them to divorce! P.S. I ran out of inspiration halfway through the extra chapter. I'll post it separately when inspiration strikes. Contemporary romance coming soon: Pearl in My Arms Qin Shang Xia goes to the river to look for inspiration, and comes back with a girl with a ramen-noodle perm in tow. Faced with the astonished stares of everyone in the studio, he explains: "I saw this girl by the river. She has an extraordinary physique and exceptional talent. At a glance, I knew she'd be perfect for voice acting, so I used my good looks to lure her here. Please take good care of her!" The other studio members respond: "Pah!" Looking at the girl in front of them, whose eyes are swollen like walnuts and whose voice sounds like a horror-movie special effect, all they want to say is: What the heck do you mean, an extraordinary physique! What the heck do you mean, exceptional talent! Little sis, this place isn't for you. Go back to smoking, drinking, and getting perms! Everyone waits for Qin Shang Xia to remember to kick the girl out. Instead, she transforms into his personally chosen disciple, using his name to swindle people wherever she goes, while Qin Shang Xia has her back. Everyone then waits for the girl to get bored and leave on her own. They wait and wait, until she becomes the studio's darling, the queen of voice acting, and finally puts on a wedding dress and becomes their sister-in-law in front of the whole country. From queen to the one and only queen consort, only then do they realize: It turns out that someone really does have a good eye. He tucked that precious pearl into his arms from the very beginning. Theme: When you start loving yourself, the whole world becomes beautiful.
