Only he knows that the newcomer he signed, Jing Yi, is actually a villainous boss who's maxed out from the start. The villain has outstanding acting skills and a powerful background, but he's arrogant, unruly, and loves playing games. Shao Chen only wants to work with the villain and stays unfazed: Play whatever games you want. If you're acting, I'll act too. Villainous boss: ? Interesting. * On a film set, Jing Yi pretends to be a rookie: "I'm a newcomer. My acting isn't good." Shao Chen smiles and plays along: "I'll run lines with you. Ten times for one scene. You won't get tired, will you?" But when he opens the script, it's all kissing scenes. Jing Yi: "Ten times for one scene. You promised." Shao Chen: ... :) They get caught up in a dating rumor, and Shao Chen takes the chance to play along too: "Any publicity is good publicity. Let's pretend we're together for a while." Under the camera, Jing Yi leans in close, speaking casually and teasingly: "Did I do a good job acting in that kissing scene? If not, should we do ten more?" But then Shao Chen feels the restless heartbeat of the person in front of him. ... Hm? The villain wasn't acting just now? Shao Chen: Interesting :) * Before long, everyone realizes that the newcomer Shao Chen signed keeps outshining everyone and racks up award after award, becoming a decorated movie emperor.

Sharp-tongued but honest, jealous gong x naturally intuitive shou with synesthesia, both idols Chi Zhong debuted in a top-tier boy band, but his unscrupulous agency forced him to go back and compete on an audition show as a backup for newcomers. One day he wakes up and realizes he's actually a cannon-fodder supporting character in a novel. Soon, he'll offend some powerful people, be kicked off the show, and meet a miserable end. Chi Zhong: So fate really is bitter QAQ Chi Zhong was born with synesthesia. He can sense colors, shapes, and flavors in any image, sound, or emotion. To him, pleasant electronic music tastes like cotton candy, the orange cat downstairs looks like a salted egg yolk with a creamy center, and taking a bite of a tangyuan lets him hear moonlight flowing. He tries hard to avoid the powerful people, only to discover that... The sharp-tongued director isn't scary at all. He's like soda fizzing with bubbles. The maniacal second male lead and producer writes lyrics that feel as warm as winter sunshine. The villainous boss seems evil, but he's actually more like the big orange cat Chi Zhong loves to cuddle. The protagonist, Mu Xinghe, is the lead mentor on the audition show and Chi Zhong's former teammate. He's as cool as a mint leaf. But when he sees Chi Zhong, his emotions taste like lemon vinegar, mint vinegar... Chi Zhong: Wait, why does the protagonist keep getting jealous over me? ** No one expected Chi Zhong, who was supposed to be a backup, to become a sensation. Not only that, a renowned variety-show director designs a stage just for him. A top music producer invites him to work on a new album together. A powerful investor helps him switch agencies and gives him the best resources. A top idol even pins him backstage, his gaze cool: "Why are you always with other people? Aren't we the ones pretending to be a couple?" Chi Zhong's heart races. He cautiously touches Mu Xinghe's warm fingertips. "I-I'm just... riding your coattails. This is enough." Mu Xinghe's expression is cold, but he pulls Chi Zhong straight into his coat. "Then ride them a little more." "There aren't any cameras filming us now. Do we still have to do this?" "Yes." Chi Zhong sneaks in a little sniff. But it really does feel like he's hugging a whole vat of vinegar...! >> Theme: After being reborn, the protagonists take on evil forces and star in excellent works of art that focus on real-life issues! A breathtaking romance, a must-read for women!
