After Returning to My World, the Pretty-Boy Idol Keeps Breaking Character

Fifteen years ago, at just nineteen, Xia Chenyuan burst onto the scene in the Shining Boy talent competition and became a famous pretty-boy idol. He couldn't sing or dance for beans, but became a celebrity on the strength of his face. Not long afterward, he disappeared, like a dazzling shooting star streaking across the sky. Fifteen years later, Xia Chenyuan is back after wandering through novels about cultivation, wuxia, palace intrigue, school life, showbiz, domineering CEOs, farming, interstellar adventures, food, and more! Audiences were astonished to find that, fifteen years on, the idols of that era were all approaching forty, but Xia Chenyuan was still young and beautiful, looking exactly as he had fifteen years ago! And that wasn't all. People also discovered that... He could dance! He could sing beautifully! He got perfect scores on all his English exams! His acting was superb! He could film period dramas without a wire harness! He could cook so well on food variety shows that famous chefs were moved to tears! He could even make Chinese herbal slimming pills and calming pills! Most importantly, he could be a thousand different people, sometimes a goofy CEO, sometimes a cold, calculating schemer, sometimes gentle and devoted, sometimes a sunny young man... Being his fan was like being a fan of ten idols at once! New fans: Aaaah! Xia Xia is just so charming! Old fans: Sweetie, teach Mom how to vote for Xia Xia, boost his rankings, and support him! Xia Chenyuan [headache]: When will this side effect of triggering a character's scripted persona every time I use a skill finally go away? * Nothing hurts more than falling in love with someone who's been dead for many years. You were born before I was, and now that I'm here, you're old. Ji Yu thought he'd never meet another man who could amaze him so much. Until the man who'd been dead for years stood alive right in front of him, wearing the same face he'd had fifteen years ago, and as a teammate in his group. I'll join the group with you, act with you, and become famous with you. I'll go with you all the way to the top of the world.
