[Synopsis]

Xu Ruqing has been single since birth and just wants to play a romance game to experience the thrill of being a player with a harem. Instead, she transmigrates straight into the game.

The System assigns her a mission: [Flirt with at least three of the Sword Venerable, the Buddha's Chosen, the Demon Emperor, the Sect Master, the Clan Head, and the Demon King.]

Xu Ruqing: "Got it."

Xu Ruqing opens her schedule: [Today, shopping with my sister, the Sect Master of the Acacia Sect. Tomorrow, planting herbs with my bestie, the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley. The day after...]

System: "Stop! Men only!"

Xu Ruqing: "Could you not be so strict about gender? Look how lovely my sisters are."

System: "No."

Xu Ruqing: "Fine. Let me narrow it down. Of the people I know, that leaves the Sword Venerable, the Demon Emperor, and the Buddha's Chosen."

As it turns out, the Sword Venerable falls, the Demon Emperor is defeated, and the Buddha's Chosen ascends.

Xu Ruqing: "I'm tired. Let's just end it all."

Xu Ruqing no longer wants to achieve enlightenment by becoming a player with a harem. All she wants is to spend her life in solitude with the "Snow-Treading Plum-Seeking" kitten she found in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Xu Ruqing happily strokes the kitten's fur. Suddenly, the kitten vanishes, and a handsome man is lying in her arms.

Xu Ruqing (blinking): "Why did my kitten turn into a person???"

The Demon King, whose fur has been stroked day and night, blushes and leans toward her. "Keep petting me."

1. A fake player with little experience but plenty of theories x a pure-hearted, haughty little wildcat. 1v1, happy ending.

2. Fanfiction based on the idle romance game Cultivator's Handbook for the Women of Such-and-Such Sect, with some original worldbuilding.

3. The author's tastes are all over the place, and this story has lots of elements, including fluffy creatures, a younger green-tea character, confinement, amnesia, and reincarnation, among others.

[Career-minded female lead x love-brained male lead]

Synopsis for The Best Actress Is reborn as an Unknown Extra [Entertainment Industry]:

Mu Yanqing, the best actress, is known throughout the industry as a workaholic.

She works all year without a break, rushing from one filming set to the next. Everyone has watched her climb steadily to the top, and she has more than earned her crown as best actress.

Then one day, while filming, she tumbles down a flight of stairs. When she opens her eyes, she has become Ye Yanqing, a nobody with barely any fame.

Scandals cling to her, the public has turned against her, she has no resources, and her contract is full of traps.

Worse still, her agent has just signed her up for a reality show about acting. The production team has already written the script: the award-winning actor Qin Weiming will mentor her, but she will be eliminated in the second round.

The production team has even helpfully written her elimination speech for her.

But when the show airs, the entire internet is dumbfounded: Who is this unknown newcomer who appeared out of nowhere? Nobody knows her, but she acts so well!

A short improvised monologue she delivers offhandedly is edited into a collection of viral quotes by netizens and spreads like wildfire online.

Her popularity with the audience skyrockets, sending her all the way to the top of the rankings.

Her agent is frantic: Just do a normal job. Don't act so well. If you make it through, we'll have to pay a penalty!

Mu Yanqing: ??? I want to do a worse job too, but... I really don't know how! Why don't you fix the scores behind the scenes?

The audience votes enthusiastically: I voted, and my whole family voted! Ye Yanqing has talent in every fingertip. You can eliminate anyone but her!

Mu Yanqing: Stop voting, please! I'm a nobody with no money. I can't afford a penalty of tens of millions!

Qin Weiming: I'll pay.

Mu Yanqing: ???

She thought it was just a passing whim.

Until one late night, she happened to see him replaying an old video again and again.

It was an interview from her previous life:

"A man should be handsome, look good in a suit, be well-read, and be thrifty and family-minded. If I can't find someone like that, I'll just live on my own."

He had once looked up to her and followed her, but he never got the chance to win her over.

This time, he doesn't want to miss his chance again.

As long as she stands in front of the camera, she is the god of acting.

[Reader's guide]

1. Before the female lead transmigrates, she is 12 years older than the male lead. After she transmigrates, she is 5 years younger than him. So the age gap switches from younger man and older woman to older man and younger woman (?) Both are virgins.

2. The author's tastes are very eclectic, so readers with lots of dealbreakers should beware. But the author will always love the female lead.

3. This is a feel-good entertainment-industry story based entirely on the author's imagination. The author has never been famous, so everything is made up. Best not to overthink the industry details.

4. Career-minded female lead x love-brained male lead.

Theme: Achieving enlightenment by becoming a player with a harem is too hard. Better to spend a lifetime with one person and one cat.
