Top-tier star Xia Ling complains that the heroine of a drama's script is hopelessly love-brained, only to end up transmigrating into the script!
She becomes an outdated actress in the entertainment industry, currently dragging her domineering CEO ex-husband onto a dating show.
She wants to shine on her own and focus on her career, but the [Ex-Wife Chase System] binds the two of them together.
[This System will issue chase-your-ex-wife missions to your ex-husband. If he fails to complete them, he will suffer cruel punishments targeting his seven emotions and six desires. If he succeeds, you will receive an incredibly powerful reward.]
What a "humane" System. The ex-husband does the missions, the ex-husband takes the punishment, and she gets the rewards!
She can even fleece a few billion from him on the side and pour it into her career!

Domineering CEO Xiao Jueqi is emotionally detached.
Ever since he was bound to the Ex-Wife Chase System, his aloof persona has completely fallen apart.
At their first meeting on the dating show, the cold and arrogant CEO performs a tearful display of manly sobbing live, moving the whole internet!
Only the CEO, biting his pillow, wonders if he's lost his mind: I cried until I was physically exhausted over a woman?
During the show's live-streamed night sharing a bed, Xiao Jueqi pulls Xia Ling into the bathroom, sending the audience into a frenzy!
In front of the makeup mirror, the CEO and Xia Ling twitch with laughter: I laughed like a total idiot over a woman?
At a high-society gala, Xiao Jueqi picks Xia Ling up and carries her toward the entrance, earning jeers that he's so tacky.
The CEO pulls Xia Ling behind him: Wait, did I just hear my ex-wife's inner thoughts?
[In short, this is the story of an aloof CEO who turns into a complete goofball, or a lunatic, while trying to win back his wife.]

Qi Yue and Song Changsheng meet again at a business mahjong game.
She sways over with a playful wiggle of her waist, and the producer pushes her in front of him.
He doesn't even glance at her, playing a tile with indifference, as if she doesn't exist.
Only when the producer reminds her to attend to him does Song Changsheng seem to become a different person, turning his gaze on her with quiet intensity.
They have the same name, but different faces and voices.
His gaze turns icy as he asks in a low voice, "Who are you?"
She smiles and replies, "Qi Yue. I hear Mr. Song's first love had the same name as me."
That evening, Song Changsheng specifically asks for her company.

There have always been rumors in Hong Kong about Song Changsheng, the man in control of the Song family.
Rumor 1: When he was the Crown Prince of Hong Kong, on the day he married into the Wei family, his first love, Qi Yue, burned the Suzhou-style garden estate worth tens of billions that he had given her to the ground, and died in the fire.
Rumor 2: After the death of Qi Yue, the beautiful Suzhou storyteller, Song Changsheng grew ever more brutal and tyrannical. The Wei family heiress was so afraid of him that she asked for a divorce.
-
She thought the rumors would fade with time, but who knew there would be a sequel?
After Song Changsheng's divorce, no one dared get close to him, women included.
Until one day, an unknown actress from the eighteenth tier sat coquettishly on Song Changsheng's lap, all captured in a live stream watched by the entire internet.
The entire world of high-society capital and entertainment media exploded: "Who is this woman?"
While everyone was still wondering who she was, she boldly announced, "I'm Qi Yue, the little mistress Mr. Song keeps."
Song Changsheng grips the woman's slender waist and gently bites her earlobe, coaxing her indistinctly: "Let's get our marriage license tomorrow. I'll give you three hundred million as a wedding gift."
Qi Yue pushes his chin away and smiles scornfully. "I'll take the money, but I reject ugly twice-married old men."
The next day's headlines:
Shocking! Hong Kong tycoon proposes to gold-digging actress, only to be rejected!
He throws three hundred million at a proposal. How did the once heartless villain become love-brained?
-
At a charity gala, he once bid an astronomical price for a lunar meteorite for her.
Qi Yue: "What's this meteorite called?"
Song Changsheng: "Moon Never Sets."
He thought the bright moon had died, only to discover it had never set over his domain.

The last Yu Manni left, and another Shu Moumou came, what? The male protagonist is so charming, and sometimes this kind of female character is really disgusting, and it makes people want to stop watching.
Apathy is not a disease in itself, but a symptom. The symptoms of emotional apathy include two aspects, one is the expression, and the other is the reaction to things. Apathy actually refers to emotional indifference. It is mainly a symptom of being unable to produce corresponding emotional responses to some things that can cause mood swings or are related to personal interests. The specific expression is mainly a dull expression, no vividness, no image, no obvious changes, and no inner experience. I have mentioned apathy several times, but the male protagonist is so easily irritable. Apart from not liking the female protagonist, he has the same emotions as normal people? Why is it set to be emotionally indifferent?
The direction of this plot is true, I thought, so cheers!!!
I have to say that this male protagonist really... Wants to persuade the replacement. Why should he ask the female protagonist to let him go when he is clearly the first! Isn't that gentlemanly behavior?
Indeed, if you are so rich, why don't you divorce and split a few billions? There are thousands of men in the world, and this one can't be replaced.
Isn't this Yuya too stupid? If something happens, she will definitely be the first one to think of her.
I thought I was here to steal my wife, but I didn't expect that I was here to have sex.
It's my first novel, I guess. It's well written and readable, but it's a bit messy.
My brother looks like a yandere
Younger brother? Are they related by blood?
