Going Viral on a Laid-Back Variety Show with My Infamous Little Brother

[My Next Book: The Invasion of the Otherworldly Species, I Summon the Ancestors of the Qin Dynasty]

Ying Xu was an overworked office drone when she suddenly transmigrated to a parallel world. Not only was she back in college as a miserable student, but she also had to face a deadly crisis.

Inside the otherworldly spaces, advanced firearms and weapons stopped working. The alien creatures there loved to eat humans. The strongest were impervious to blades and bullets, could command wind and fire, and could shake mountains and shatter the earth. Countries struggled to hold them back. Powerful nations were locked in a stalemate, while weaker ones gradually fell.

Fortunately, some people could strengthen their bodies and summon the power of the Five Elements. Ancient traditions also began to resurface: Maoshan Taoist arts, Buddhist teachings, internal energy, and many others. More and more gifted people capable of facing the alien creatures head-on began to emerge.

Living in the safest powerful nation in the world, where talented people were everywhere, Ying Xu only wanted to graduate, return to being an office drone, and live a peaceful life.

But just before her internship, disaster struck. An otherworldly space appeared at her school. The principal announced on the spot that graduation would be postponed indefinitely, and the boss who had come to recruit students was killed right there.

In the midst of searing pain, Ying Xu's power awakened.

A towering man in golden armor, who called himself Li Xin, suddenly appeared. He drove his long spear straight through an alien creature and declared in a deep voice, "By His Majesty's order, any monster that harms a member of the imperial family shall be executed!"

Ying Xu, who had closed her eyes and accepted her death, opened them wide. "What? I'm really a descendant of the First Emperor?"

She had thought the family tree her grandfather showed her as a child was made up. Who would have guessed... this could actually be true!

From then on, Ying Xu became a gifted fighter and joined the national team. Whenever she encountered danger, she would shout at the top of her lungs:

"Ancestors, save me!"

[The following is this novel's synopsis]

Five years ago, Jiang Cha disappeared after taking the college entrance exam. Her younger brother, the only family she had, searched everywhere for her.

Wanting to be there for his sister to see as soon as she returned, Jiang Ze dropped out of high school and threw himself into show business. He became a disgraced top-tier star in a novel: a performer with only a middle-school education, surrounded by scandals, and destined to die young.

*

After struggling for years in disaster survival scenarios, Jiang Cha finally returned to her world.

The world's consciousness compensated her with the plot of a novel. There she learned that her brother, who had refused to appear on a sibling reality show with the female lead, was about to die young.

Jiang Cha: You think you can bully my brother without asking me?

*

Top-tier star Jiang Ze brings his long-lost sister, missing for five years, to film the show Sisters and Brothers Go Traveling. His haters catch wind of it and spring into action:

In this age of big data, you only found her after five years? Is she a fake sister hoping to use him to make her debut, or the real one who deliberately hid herself?

Day One of Filming

Jiang Cha wears black, looking bold and dashing.

When she takes off her mask, her face is almost an exact copy of Jiang Ze's, instantly dispelling the rumor that she is using him to get famous.

Day Two of Filming

The siblings draw lots to choose their transportation to the tropical rainforest.

The other pairs get luxury cars and yachts, or a ride from the production crew. Jiang Ze has bad luck and draws a helicopter.

The production crew will provide the helicopter, but not a pilot. In this difficult situation, the original female lead rolls down her car window. "Senior Jiang, the cabin is packed with supplies. One of you may have to squeeze into the trunk."

Jiang Ze is ready to squeeze into the trunk for his sister, but Jiang Cha pulls a pilot's license out of her pocket dimension. "Have you filed the flight plan?"

At first, the guests and viewers all assume that Jiang Cha must have suffered terribly during the five years she was missing.

Later, they watch her fly a plane with her bare hands, skewer a piranha one-handed, beat up an abusive husband, kick a thug, and hit a target from two hundred meters away with her eyes closed.

The guests: (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

Jiang Ze: My sister's been like this since she was a kid...

The viewers: No need to explain. We get it, we really do! Our sister spent those five years as a special forces soldier!

**Coming Soon: When the Comment Board Made Me a Billionaire [The 1970s]**

Gu Zhaoyun is a professional writer of period fiction. After writing countless melodramatic stories about family life, she unexpectedly transmigrates into the world of her own book.

She finds herself in a chaotic mash-up world teeming with protagonists, where she is fat, ugly, and at risk of being killed off at any moment.

Gu Zhaoyun (eyes closed): Just destroy this wretched world already.

The villagers of Gu Family Village notice that the crazy girl from Third Granduncle's family has become quiet lately. Even more astonishing, they can read the words appearing above her head.

The female lead of a good-fortune baby story is about to have the man she loves stolen from her. Unable to bear it any longer, she decides to fight back.

But before she can act, she sees several lines of text flash above Gu the eldest girl's head.

[Romance is no match for building a career. Little Lucky, your spiritual spring can do more than beautify your skin.]

The male lead of a transmigration novel hears that someone is making life difficult for the young woman he likes, so he grabs a cleaver and rushes to her defense.

But the moment he comes face-to-face with her, the comments above Gu the eldest girl's head cover his face.

[Speculation and profiteering are small-time stuff. Why not use the commune's channels to build something bigger?]

Before comments appeared above Gu the eldest girl's head, the protagonists and supporting characters throughout Gu Family Village spent their days fighting tooth and nail over their own little patch of land.

After the comments appeared above her head:

Hmph. I'm not giving that little girl a show to watch, not at my age!

Gu the eldest girl, or rather, Gu Zhaoyun, decides to see if she can change this chaotic world, if only to ease her conscience.

But before she even gets the chance to do anything...

After drinking a lovingly made beverage, the fat, dark, ugly girl becomes beautiful!

With the protagonists volunteering to help, vegetable greenhouses spring up!

A canning factory, a food factory, a livestock farm, a textile mill...

Businesses blossom all over Gu Family Village. Everyone rides the tide of the times, and every household becomes one of the first families to make ten thousand yuan after reform and opening up.

And after picking up her pen again just to earn enough to eat, Gu Zhaoyun becomes the most intriguing mysterious writer in literary circles...

What she finds even harder to believe is that, with more money than she can spend, she becomes an anonymous angel investor. Real estate, supermarket chains, restaurants, transportation, computers, mobile phones, cars... her investments span one industry after another.

Gu Zhaoyun transmigrates into her own work as a comment board. Before she knows it, she owns factories, controls companies, holds shares across countless industries, and becomes the mysterious investor behind powerful figures in every field.

And then, in the blink of an eye, she becomes the richest person in the country...

Theme: Healing and warmth, striving to forge ahead.
