After Being Picked Up by the Reborn S-Rank Guide

[New serial: Great News! I Turned the Gentle, Mature Woman Around in the Entertainment Industry] An ambitious young actress works with the rumored actress three times and turns her around on livestream~

Yan Xunzhi was born underground and was utterly ordinary, average in every way. Her only wish in life was to be a lazy couch potato, coast along, and live out her days in peace.

But her mental compatibility score stunned everyone, connecting her to the S-rank guide Kong Wei.

The couch potato gaped in shock and slammed her head against the ground. "No!"

Being matched with an S-rank guide meant her surface missions would be higher-level and much more difficult. But she had no grand ambitions. She only wanted to live peacefully until retirement...

Their compatibility was too high. There was no point struggling, so she decided to lie flat.

Fortunately, although the S-rank guide seemed aloof, she appeared to be attracted to Yan Xunzhi's looks and took good care of her. She was highly capable, too, so life was quite sweet. Yan Xunzhi was utterly captivated. Clinging to this powerful ally, she did everything she could to stay on her radar, hoping to earn a fortune and live comfortably after retirement.

There was just one thing she couldn't understand:

The things Kong Wei was certain she liked were things she didn't like. Even when Kong Wei called her name, it seemed she wasn't looking at her.

"Are you in love with me?"

She didn't dare ask.

Forget it. She was just a couch potato. Being someone's substitute was a blessing in its own way.

She only hoped, hoped with all her heart, that things would go no further, and that she wouldn't fall for that unattainable officer and become hopelessly, helplessly in love.

Unfortunately, it seemed... too late.

--All because that guide was so charming!

A semi-Apocalypse setting, with underdeveloped mechanical technology and lots of original worldbuilding. The main characters aren't good people, and the setting has low standards of morality. Weak gong, strong shou; scum gong, trashy shou. Don't read if that's not your thing.

[New story pre-order: Restricted-Rated Scenes [Entertainment Industry]]

Blurb:

When Jiang Yi debuted, she had no money or connections. Her first work was an adult film she made with Chen Ye, an equally unknown actress.

The production was tiny and shoddy, thrown together by amateurs. They filmed for only two or three days, and the finished film was banned before it could even circulate, so it was never archived.

Later, she continued acting and changed her name. No one knew about that part of her past.

Chen Ye, the female lead in the first film they made together, had already quit acting.

Rumor had it that she married into a wealthy family, then left with nothing.

After years of hard work and crossing class boundaries, she became wealthy herself and changed her name too. Now she was called Chen Ye.

Years after they went their separate ways, Jiang Yi saw her from afar at a crowded reception.

The other woman cast a brief glance at her, then looked away.

She really was a nobody. It was only natural to forget her.

Jiang Yi felt envious, then sighed.

Later, a mutual acquaintance set them up. Forced by circumstance, Jiang Yi approached her with feelings she couldn't put into words.

It didn't matter that she didn't remember her. It was a good thing she'd forgotten her.

That way, Jiang Yi could keep her composure, humble herself before her, and comfort herself with the little self-respect she had left.

That's what she had always believed.

Chen Ye had never treated her any differently.

Until, in bed, she pinned her down...

And recreated a scene from their film all those years ago.
