[Blurb]
The girl group's top-tier star Cheng Yang is reborn.
Before she was reborn, she was the leader and all-round ace of the girl group Fire. She carried the group on her own and propelled Fire to the top spot among domestic girl groups. Their album Begin Again held the number one spot on You2be for three consecutive weeks, and she herself ranked first among female entertainers worldwide.
At the celebratory banquet, the three teammates who had once clung to Cheng Yang and begged for her help joined forces to betray her, and she died.
After being reborn, she is Chu Yaoyao, the maknae of the industry's floundering girl group Bellflower Girls. Three years after their debut, they are still performing for love, with only a few hundred fans between them.
This time, she'll live on as Chu Yaoyao. I'll do what you couldn't. Oh, and there's one more important thing: make the remaining members of Fire pay!
Back on the road to stardom:
Switch to the top entertainment company in the industry √
Turn a variety-show background role into a comeback √
Max out her teammates' talent stats √
The members of Fire are ruined √
Bellflower Girls debut as top-tier stars √
I'm back √

She attends her own memorial service and trends for the first time:
Fans: “Where did this nobody come from, trying to ride Goddess Yang's coattails? Get lost!”
(Chu Yaoyao: Thanks for asking. I'm at my own memorial, and my own fans just insulted me.)
She becomes a sensation on the variety show Idol Winter Olympics and trends for the second time:
Fans: #The best Cheng Yang substitute in the industry!# #Yaoyao! Is Yangyang back to see us? I'm sobbing! ┭┮﹏┭┮#
(Chu Yaoyao: A substitute? Hah. The real deal is right here.)
The movie she makes with an award-winning actor wins a major film award, and she trends for the third time:
Fans: Yangyang is Yangyang, Yaoyao is Yaoyao. They're both treasures in my heart!
(Chu Yaoyao: Humans really do end up loving it... *heavy breathing*)

At the awards ceremony, Chu Yaoyao holds her trophy and gives her acceptance speech, moved by the tens of millions of fans who have walked alongside her and made her journey so dazzling. After stepping offstage, someone pulls her into a small room in the corridor.
Pei Yanlin puts an arm around her waist and pins her against the door. His tall nose brushes gently against hers, and his eyes look especially hazy from the alcohol. “When will you spare a thought for me?”
“How about... tonight?”
A few things to know:
1. An entertainment-industry story about working your way up.
2. No characters are based on real people.
3. The female lead becomes more beautiful later in the story.

[Blurb]
The first time Gu Yanrong saw Su Yimo, she was standing on the school field's bleachers, shouting down at him, “Gu Yanrong, I'm Su Yimo from Class 3. Can I pursue you?”
She smiled brightly, her eyes curving into crescents, and her smile only grew wider as the people around them hooted.
Gu Yanrong remained expressionless, picked up his schoolbag from the ground, and tossed it behind him. “Boring.”
Two months later, the most beautiful student in their year, who had ranked first in every exam, was won over by Su Yimo. Four months after that, rumors spread around school that the heartless Su Yimo had dumped Gu Yanrong and disappeared without a word.
Years later, they meet again at a class reunion organized by their former homeroom teacher. Gu Yanrong is now a top-tier star and singer-songwriter in the entertainment industry, with a captivating face, a smoky voice as deep as a cello, and a short temper that makes him hard to approach. People would pay a fortune to hear him sing.
He's a treasure in everyone else's heart, but just a weed on her grave.
Su Yimo: An ex-boyfriend? Even dogs don't want one!
That night, a drunk Gu Yanrong holds on to her for a long time. His lashes tremble as he murmurs, “Don't go...”
The next time they meet, Su Yimo has just signed with an agency and become an actress who's barely on the industry's radar. Her first job is an invitation to appear on a variety show called Have You Made Up Yet?
Su Yimo: “I've only dated one person, and my ex-boyfriend doesn't like this kind of show.”
Manager: “You mean Gu Yanrong? He's already agreed.”
???

Word spreads again that top-tier star and singer-songwriter Gu Yanrong had a heartless ex-girlfriend. The heartbreak changed him, and for years he's moved from one romance to another, surrounded by rumors. No woman has ever been able to make him stay.
Ten minutes after a gossip account reposts the rumor:
@Gu Yanrong: To clarify, I'm still a virgin. The real deal.
Fans: ...Is there anyone left on Weibo you actually care about?
Su Yimo: Wait, am I the heartless ex-girlfriend?
