Redemption? Let’s Have Some Gossip First

[Coming soon next door: I, Inheriting a Transmigrator’s Legacy? [Interstellar]. Please add it to your library~] After transmigrating into a book, Yu Keke became bound to a System that tasked her with redeeming the villain before he turned evil. Fail to complete the task and she’d die. Sincerely, she asked: “How am I supposed to get close to Ji Jingye and stop him from turning evil?” The System replied with complete confidence: “How should I know?” Yu Keke: “? Then what good are you?” The System said, “I know everything about this world. For example, the top-tier star right in front of you secretly married and had a child with his agent ages ago, but he’s also secretly dating the actress he’s been shipping with lately. And that female influencer over there is about to get married, but she’s still carrying on like crazy behind her fiancé’s back. She and her hookup are planning to do something wild on her wedding night… and so on.” Yu Keke: “! What happened next? Did they get caught?” The System: “?” Once they realized they were birds of a feather, Host and System became utterly obsessed with gossip. They were having such a great time that they completely forgot about the mission and the villain. Until one day… “Host, Host, I think the villain’s been secretly in love with you for ages! He’s got tons of photos you sent him saved on his phone. Wait, why is our channel connected to someone else’s?!” Yu Keke and the System whipped around in shock. The villain, who had been working on some documents, looked up and smiled at them. “What’s wrong? Why don’t you keep talking?” Yu Keke: “!!” The System: “!!” Um, System, does this count as completing the mission? Uh… I guess so? Ji Jingye was unexpectedly reborn, and for some reason, he found himself connected to the brainwave channel between Yu Keke and the System. He sat back and waited to see how Yu Keke would win him over and stop him from turning evil. But… Yu Keke: “Really? Really? Wow, what happened next?” The System: “Then the man…” Yu Keke: “Woohoo, how exciting!” Ji Jingye: “…” I’m the one taking this seriously, and I look like an idiot. When Ji Jingye finally made his move, Yu Keke spotted him at last, her eyes lighting up. He waited quietly for her to say something, only for the System to exclaim “Wow!” and pop up again. “Host, Host, I just got some huge gossip! The woman’s actually pregnant. It’s definitely true, straight from the source!” Yu Keke whirled around. “What? What? Who’s the father?” Ji Jingye stared at them expressionlessly. “…” Do they even remember what their mission is? Wait, so who is the father? Reader’s Guide: 1. All gossip and characters are fictional. Any resemblance is purely coincidental, so please don’t read anything into it. 2. The old-school setting has no logic. Remember to set your brain aside while reading. (Dog head) 3. The variety show in chapters 44–47 involves lesbian gossip. It will be described, but there’s no secondary couple, and nothing comes of it after the show. Feel free to skip those chapters if it’s not your thing~ 4. This idea has been on file since 2022.11.12. I have a complete chat log of how my friend and I came up with it. [Please add my next book to your library~] I, Inheriting a Transmigrator’s Legacy? [Interstellar] After Su Qingyuan was forced to drift through space and ended up on a garbage planet, a System suddenly appeared in her hour of need. She was chosen as a plane administrator, tasked with helping a group of transmigrators who had been stranded in the Interstellar world for a hundred years return home. And all she wanted was their entire inheritance! So, to inherit everything flawlessly without arousing suspicion, Su Jiuyuan began helping the transmigrators act out one classic story after another. The first script she took on was The Lord’s Real Heiress Returns. From then on, one melodramatic Blue Star trope after another began playing out among the most powerful circles in the Interstellar world: the real and fake heiresses, the substitute imprisoned by her lover, feuds among the wealthy, battles for control of a barren planet, the tyrant’s adored daughter… All the outside world could see was one coldhearted, powerful figure after another falling for the same person, doting on her and bowing to her, even willingly placing themselves under her control. But no one knew that every one of these Interstellar powerholders shared the exact same obsession deep down Going home. They had once shared a private group chat and supported one another, all in the hope of returning to the Blue Star they longed for. One had fought his way through mountains of corpses on a garbage planet to become the sole ruler of a territory; One had stirred up storms among the Interstellar financial conglomerates and amassed an enormous fortune; One had carved out a domain among the stars and commanded a force no one dared provoke… They had carefully climbed their way to the top, not because they coveted power in the Interstellar world, but because they wanted to get a little closer to the way home. Yet they found nothing. Just as they gave up all hope and resigned themselves to being buried in a foreign land, the group chat that had lain silent for a hundred years finally lit up again. [Group Admin: Su Jiuyuan] [Inheritance transfer channel activated] [Transfer all assets to initiate the return procedure immediately] From that moment on, vast networks of power and boundless wealth were smoothly and naturally handed over to Su Jiuyuan through the stories’ plots. She accepted these gifts as they came, rising step by step to the pinnacle of Interstellar power. Everyone sighed that she was cursed with misfortune. She held an entire star region in her hands, with wealth and power unmatched across the universe, yet she had few family ties and a rough love life. The powerful and influential people closest to her kept dying one after another, leaving her with no one by her side. Beneath her dazzling public image, she was utterly alone. Su Jiuyuan merely gave a dismissive laugh. Alone? Not a chance. This climb to power was ridiculously satisfying! And she had to thank all her generous transmigrator benefactors. She’d be happy to accept the throne of the Interstellar Empire~❤️ Theme: Staying strong and persevering through hardship
