Crescent Moon [Showbiz]

The internet is buzzing with rumors that double-award-winning Best Actress Gu Qingyue and D-list actress Jiang Ling have been secretly married for three years. In the eight years since Gu Qingyue entered the entertainment industry, she has had virtually no scandals. While her fans were accusing Jiang Ling of using her name for publicity, Gu Qingyue posted on Weibo: "I'm sorry I had to introduce you this way, Mrs. Gu. @Jiang Ling, Tiny One" The moment the news broke, Weibo crashed, and all kinds of hashtags appeared on the front page: #MyYouthIsOver# #GuQingyueIWishYouHappiness# #EvenThoughYoureMarriedILoveYouStill# Meanwhile, Jiang Ling, who was counting down the three months left on her contract, fell into deep thought: Should she go out and clarify that their contract had three months left to run? Campus version: When Jiang Ling was ten, her parents gave her the most unusual present: a girl who was mute and a little slow, whom they'd brought home. She hated Gu Qingyue and even liked to tease her, but she couldn't stand seeing anyone else bully her. The noisy classroom was filled with unusually sharp whispers. "Gu Qingyue's an orphaned bastard!" "You're the bastard! Gu Qingyue is my big sister! Go ahead and try bullying my sister, Jiang Ling's sister!" Everyone at Jincheng No. 1 High School knew Jiang Ling of Class Three was a lunatic. If she heard anything she didn't like, she'd hunt down the person who said it and beat them up. The only person who could stop her was Gu Qingyue, who always kept quiet in a corner. Everyone wondered whether someone would end up dead if Gu Qingyue ever left. Later, Gu Qingyue really did leave. While everyone else was on edge, Jiang Ling became quiet instead. She ate, studied, and slept. It was as if she'd never once lost control. * "You're cold, don't talk much, and aren't very popular, but at least you look good on camera. If some blind person picks you to be an actress someday, I'll reluctantly be your head fan, help you climb the charts, and fight your antis. I've even thought of a fan name for you: Crescent Moon. I already registered an account to prove I'm a fan, CrescentMoonNo.1. Look, are you going to take advantage of this deal or not?" "Mm. I'll take it." Note: Gu only stayed at the Jiang family home for a while when she was young. The two leads are not related by blood and have no household registration ties. She calls her big sister because of their age difference. Reader's guide: Modern alternate universe, where same-sex marriage is legal Mainly set in the entertainment industry Sweet romance Synopsis for "So I Heard You Differentiated as an Alpha Too?": Yu Ning has an alpha fiance everyone envies. She often gets into fights with other people over her fiance, and has always thought her fiance's aloofness and few words were simply part of her personality. It wasn't until a sweet, gentle transfer student arrived that Yu Ning realized Lin Yanqing was only cold toward her. Then a traffic accident happened, and Yu Ning was shocked to realize that everything was unfolding exactly like the plot of a book she'd read. Only then did she come to her senses and realize she was living inside a book. In this world, Lin Yanqing and Jiang Shuangshuang are the protagonists. Yu Ning is merely an obstacle on their road to marriage. According to the original plot, while Lin Yanqing is protecting Jiang Shuangshuang, Yu Ning will be pushed down a flight of stairs, crippling both her legs. In the end, she will be moved by their sincere love and voluntarily break off the engagement to bring them together. Once she came to her senses, Yu Ning gave a cold laugh. To hell with that. Whoever wants this alpha can have her. She doesn't want her anymore. To break off the engagement, Yu Ning pulls out all the stops, even pretending to be an alpha after differentiating as an omega, all to achieve her goal. But Yu Ning never expected that while dodging someone one day, she'd run straight into the school bully alpha everyone feared. And, even more coincidentally... she hadn't brought her suppressants... The air was filled with an omega's light tea-scented pheromones. Su Yi'en leaned closer, smiling as if she had something up her sleeve. "I heard you differentiated as an alpha. So what's this?" Yu Ning trembled, unable to speak. ++++"How about this? Be my little sidekick from now on, and I'll reluctantly mark you. What do you say?" Yu Ning used what little sense she had left to recall the novel. Su Yi'en was the only other major character besides Lin Yanqing and Jiang Shuangshuang who had a bright future ahead of her. Getting on good terms with her was surely a good idea. So she nodded. * Su Yi'en had long disliked Lin Yanqing. During one confrontation, she was actually threatened by the little squirt standing beside Lin Yanqing. "Listen, my dad is the biggest shareholder in this school. If you mess with Lin Yanqing again, I'll make sure you regret it." Su Yi'en thought it was funny. Anyone who could get into this school had money. But seeing the little girl's puffed cheeks and serious expression, she couldn't bring herself to give her a hard time. Later, she heard that the girl had differentiated as an alpha. Well, well. Who would've thought? But what surprised her even more was that Yu Ning had pretended to be an alpha just to break off her engagement. In an instant, Su Yi'en remembered how Yu Ning had stood up for Lin Yanqing, and a more interesting plan came to mind. Theme: Keep kindness in your heart as you grow. No matter how far you go, remember to look back at the people who were with you from the very beginning.
