The Max-Level White Lotus Rides the Wave of Feel-Good Fiction in the Entertainment Industry

Ruan Tong is gorgeous, and people call her the entertainment industry's girl-next-door first love.

But that's not all. She's also a brilliant actress, winning Best Actress awards left and right.

Unfortunately, she transmigrates into a fanfic written by a hater and becomes the scheming little homewrecker who seduces the heroine's fiancé.

Knowing how the story goes, Ruan Tong rolls her eyes. The villainous white-lotus script is garbage, so she's going to turn it into a feel-good power fantasy.

Before long, the ultimate white lotus hasn't just avoided falling into obscurity, she's making waves in the entertainment industry.

When she becomes the first Chinese actress to win the Cannes Best Actress award, she stands onstage with an innocent smile. “Thank you to the judges for recognizing my work...”

The haters are furious: “Give me a break. You think an international film festival award is handed out like a slice of cake? You just got lucky.”

But then she keeps winning awards, completing the international film-award grand slam in less than two years.

Haters: “Damn it, I'm shutting up.”

After rumors link her to Shen Yu, a highly acclaimed actor in the industry,

her fans see red and are outraged.

“It's all a publicity stunt! Ruan the White Lotus is manipulative, fake, surrounded by scandals, and has a terrible reputation. We wouldn't want a woman who dates several men at once even if she threw herself at us!”

@RuanTongV: Sure. I don't like throwing myself at people either.

Her fans breathe a sigh of relief.

A few seconds later:

@ShenYuV: To clarify, I'm the one throwing himself at her.

Fans: “Damn it! Not only has our house collapsed, it's been swept away in a flood!!!”

#A sweet yet sassy white lotus takes the entertainment industry by storm#

[A handsome, privileged, gloomy, obsessive male lead X a first-love-faced female lead who flirts like crazy and never takes responsibility]

[Both leads transmigrate into a book later in the story]

TIPS:

* The female lead is paired with Shen Yu both in reality and in the book. It's a one-on-one romance, and the male lead can be considered the same person in both settings. This will be explained later.

* A heads-up: Neither lead is a traditional moral paragon. They both have their own selfish little thoughts. Because of the harm caused by her family, the female lead initially doesn't trust love, and at first she flirts without taking responsibility. Both leads need room to grow. Once they get together, prepare for an overwhelming amount of sweetness.

* A heads-up: The story includes a male supporting character who is attracted to men.

New completed novel: After Her White Moonlight Stand-In Gives Up, She Becomes a Star

Jiang Cha comes from a good family, is beautiful, and has a devoted rich fiancé, a loyal childhood friend, and a top-tier star for a younger brother.

Everyone says Jiang Cha has won at life.

Until she discovers she's just the green-tea supporting character in a rich-family romance where readers pick their favorite male lead.

Her rich fiancé, loyal childhood friend, and top-tier star younger brother only see her as a stand-in for their white moonlight.

When the woman they truly love returns, Jiang Cha's good days will be over.

Jiang Cha: I'm done following this script.

She cuts ties with all three of them overnight.

When they ask why, she pretends to sob and says, “I'm sorry, but I still can't forget my ex, who died young.”

All three powerful men just sneer. “Don't come crying to us later.”

*

Everyone in the industry thinks Jiang Cha's career is over.

But later, someone captures a video.

At a party, while Jiang Cha is having the time of her life,

the distinguished president of the Fu family suddenly appears in front of her.

His dark eyes sweep over her, and he parts his thin lips.

“Are you the one going around saying I'm dead?”

The entire entertainment world erupts.

Jiang Cha: Oh, crap!!!

Her supposedly dead ex seems to have come back to life.
