The Top-Tier Star Actually Got into Character!

My new book, "After Customizing a Bionic Person, My White Moonlight Came Back to Life," is currently in progress. Come check it out on the next page!

Blurb:

-

Two years after her debut, Tian Jiayan is still a nobody in the entertainment industry. She lies flat and plays video games every day, waiting to retire early and change careers, when she unexpectedly discovers a new opportunity.

"A grand stage for top-tier stars! If you've got the guts, come on up!"

Tian Jiayan blinks. "Really?"

After that,

her red-carpet styling improves by ten levels with ease;

after she angrily confronts her former manager, the other woman still has to suck up to her;

she gets one major S+ film project after another from famous directors;

her acting skills soar, with a learning buff built right in;

influential industry figures eagerly pave the way for her;

a popular star kisses her and confesses his love in public;

her value skyrockets, and she successfully joins the ranks of first-tier young actresses;

Watching her path to becoming a top-tier star grow clearer and clearer, Tian Jiayan nods in satisfaction. Just as she's about to celebrate early,

she sees her scene partner, wearing an expression that's neither laughter nor tears, stiffly deliver a line consisting of just three words.

And he was stuck on it all morning!

The director is furious but dares not speak up, so he entrusts this arduous task to her.

But when faced with an acting-challenged guy like him, getting him into character would be easier if she just killed herself!

Damn it,

is her path to stardom going to collapse before she even gets halfway there?

Cheng Yangche is a top-tier star in the truest sense of the word. He dominates the entertainment industry with that face of his and has a flawless public image. The one exception is his acting, which is so terrible it belongs in a swamp.

And no matter what, he just can't improve.

When he meets Tian Jiayan again, before he can say a word, she hands him a little note.

He blushes, thinking it's a love letter, and is too flustered to open it.

But she has drawn a pleading face on it and written:

"Bro, if all else fails, how about signing up for some acting classes..."

His fans, who thought she was shamelessly clinging to him and whose anger had reached its peak as they prepared to attack, are stunned.

Then they all say, "As long as his acting improves, Teacher Tian can do whatever she wants with him!"

Cheng Yangche: "..."

*

For the sake of the film project, Tian Jiayan works with Cheng Yangche, and his acting skills improve at lightning speed. He masters the emotions of his character with ease and earns praise from a host of industry bigwigs.

Tian Jiayan marvels that her teaching was so effective. Once filming wraps, she pats herself on the back and walks away, having accomplished her mission.

Cheng Yangche, unable to find her, is despondent and posts a desperate message online:

"I'm sorry, I was wrong. Don't ignore me."

All his fans: ?

We told you to sit next to the top student, and you started dating her!

Tian Jiayan: ?

You weren't acting!

An acting talent who gets dragged into the rat race despite being a nobody x a super top-tier star who keeps imagining she loves him more than life itself

Top-tier star: I want to say I love you, but all she says is, "You should study hard."

Coming soon, "The Third Kind of Time" (Yao Yu's storyline!):

The day she wins Best Actress, Yao Yu's boss proposes to her in front of everyone.

The proud, distinguished man radiates mature charm, yet when he kneels on one knee, he gazes at her tenderly, full of expectation.

Her savior, her mentor, their families' longtime friends...

A handsome man and a beautiful woman, they seem made for each other.

It seems everyone is certain that Yao Yu won't hesitate, and shouldn't hesitate.

Her love life and career have both flourished at once. If she's not weeping with joy, she should at least be moved, not choose a path that leaves them both unable to save face.

After all, who would know Yao Yu without Ji Yuanchen?

A girl orphaned in her heart, cold to the bone, with no feelings for anything but acting. She is like a delicate flower growing in golden sand, and only Ji Yuanchen can water her with rare, heavenly dew.

She can't survive without him.

But only Yao Yu knows that the golden sand and heavenly dew are like natural glue. Day and night, they are slowly turning into a splendid cage, covered in vines.

They shield her from danger, but also keep out the winds of freedom.

And for a flower to grow, it needs rain and wind.

Yu Sheng is the wind.

He is the feeling of freedom that rushes over you when you ride a horse across the grasslands.

Even the images he captures are imbued with extraordinary vitality, surging with life as all things revive.

He is carefree and bold. At a young age, he wins a top film award for Best Director as soon as he makes a name for himself.

He smiles and offers Yao Yu the leading role in his film.

"Come to the grasslands."

There, beyond day and night, is a third kind of time.

There is absolute freedom, beyond anyone's ability to watch.

After four months in seclusion filming the movie, Yao Yu returns full of life, like a kite eager to rise into the wind. Ji Yuanchen hasn't seen her like this in a long time.

Half of his sharply defined profile is lost in shadow, smoke swirling around him. His voice is hoarse, and he is like a twisted vine, growing with desperate force as he instantly tightens his grip around her wrist and touches the scar on her shoulder.

"It hurts."

At twenty-eight, Yu Sheng returns to Jiangcheng.

In his memory, she was the girl who would only stand dumbly beside the person she hated, unmoved no matter how much anyone teased her, not even stirring when a fire broke out. But now she looks at him.

He lifts his short sleeve, revealing a long scar across his back.

It looks like a kite string.

Once, with the fire raging, the boy, already short on strength, fought against the crowd and desperately rescued her.

This time, he can save her too.

A kite can only fly higher on the grasslands.
