After Winning Over the Villainous Big Shot, I Couldn't Escape

The upcoming novel, Clinging to a Rich Lady Every Day, is looking for favorites. See the blurb at the end~ Li Mingzhu was the number-one female supporting character in an old-fashioned sweet romance. With a giant brain-dulling halo over her head, she got jealous of the heroine and was humiliated, pined after the hero and was mocked, and tried to please her family only to be despised... In the end, the hero, Ji Muyang, treated her as a substitute for the heroine, Li Yue. On the way to deliver her to her love rival, Chi Yi, she died in a chain-reaction crash. After being reborn, Li Mingzhu wanted only to get rid of her brain-dulling halo and do whatever she pleased. To that end, she bound herself to Ji Xingyao, the most rational character in the entire book. Ji Xingyao was the hero's older half-brother. A cool, aloof academic prodigy, he was the refined young master of a wealthy family, someone people said you could admire from afar but never hope to win over. He was also the story's biggest villain, though few people knew it yet. She needed to complete tasks related to him to earn the rationality points she needed to remove her halo. And so... During PE, Ji Xingyao and the hero faced off on the basketball court. [Special mission triggered! Cheer Ji Xingyao on and give him your one-of-a-kind support throughout the game.] Li Mingzhu: I know how to do this one! She borrowed a megaphone from the school store and shouted toward the middle of the court, "Ji Xingyao, you are the light, you are the oxygen, you are my ideal man." Onlookers: No way, no way! Surely no one thinks this is enough to win over the academic prodigy? * At Christmas, Ji Xingyao was home alone. [Special mission triggered! Keep him company and give him a warm holiday experience.] Li Mingzhu: I'm great at this one! She dug out a nail-art kit she'd ordered online and knocked on the door across the hall. "Want to have hot pot and watch a movie together, then do matching Christmas nails?" The System covered its face: He's a ruthless, heartless villain. Do you think you're having a sleepover with your best friend? * One day, someone on the school forum dug up a list of all the things the academic prodigy Ji and Li Mingzhu owned in matching styles: thermoses, backpack charms, scarves, nail art... They even went to and from the same apartment complex and the same building... The whole school was stunned!!! - Li Mingzhu had gotten involved with Ji Xingyao, maxed out her rationality points at 99,999, and successfully removed her brain-dulling halo. She secretly reasoned that he was a year above her, so once he graduated, they would naturally drift apart. But on the night of his graduation... Ji Xingyao gripped her hand, his gaze dark and his smile tender. "Try sneaking off, and I'll break your legs!" Li Mingzhu: "..." Wait... Had she gotten stuck with him? - He was born evil, cold and ruthless. But one day, a rose bloomed in his barren world. Content warnings: 1. Naturally dark piano prodigy x aloof, tsundere academic prodigy. One-on-one romance, very sweet. 2. Transmigrate into a book setting. The entire story is fictional, so please don't map it onto real life. 3. No ranking checks, and no personal attacks. Upcoming novel, Clinging to a Rich Lady Every Day, blurb: Shen Qingxing transmigrated into a supporting female character in a sweet and satisfying entertainment-industry-meets-wealthy-family novel. The heroine was her half-sister. The heroine had a beloved-by-everyone halo and was showered with affection. Shen Qingxing, meanwhile, was a wealthy heiress who insisted on entering the entertainment industry. In the story, she was hounded by scandals and blacklisted, got into a car accident and became disabled, and eventually married the third male lead, who had a soft spot for the heroine. She lived a miserable, lonely life. The System said, "If you want to change the supporting character's fate, Host, you have four choices: please the heroine, please the hero, please the villain, or get on the third male lead's good side in advance. Hint: doing all four works better." Shen Qingxing: "Tsk, I don't think so." The System: "?" At a gathering of high society, the heroine, hero, villain, and supporting male character all attended. The place was buzzing. The System urged her on: "Host, this is your chance." Shen Qingxing nodded, picked up a glass of orange juice, and plunged into the circle of socialites, or rather, the circle of rich ladies next to it. "Ladies, want to cling together?" And from then on... Shen Qingxing was showered with opportunities: luxury-brand endorsements, roles in films by famous directors, red-carpet appearances, variety shows... She went from a nobody to a top-tier star. Netizens couldn't help wondering: Who exactly was backing her? Someone dug up the fact that Shen Qingxing's new agency was under the Jiang Group, and her manager was the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. The company had signed no one but Shen Qingxing. The CEO of the Shen family, the wife of the Xie family's CEO, and the old madam of the century-old Jiang family, all of whom frequently worked with Shen Qingxing, were fans of her career... Every one of them was a top rich lady worth billions. Netizens: This is freaking ridiculous! - One day, a big shot appeared in the rich ladies' group chat: a mysterious rich lady introduced by Old Madam Jiang. This rich lady rarely showed her face, but when it came to throwing opportunities Shen Qingxing's way, she was more ruthless than anyone. Shen Qingxing messaged Old Madam Jiang privately and asked, "Which lady is this?" Soon afterward, Shen Qingxing received a friend request from the mysterious rich lady. Jiang Jingyue: I'm rich, and I want to cling to you every day. Shen Qingxing: "..." - Jiang Jingyue was the villain's older brother, a character even more villainous than the villain himself. Worried that his grandmother would be conned out of money and affection by some obscure celebrity, he pretended to like the celebrity and joined the group chat under a rich lady's secret identity, hoping to catch her red-handed. Who knew that he would fail to catch her, but lose his heart instead? Theme: Stay positive and work hard at life.
