The President Is a Heartthrob with a Dark Heart

[Everyone's Favorite, Angsty Drama, Deadly Levels of Male Rivalry, High-Intensity Love Triangle Chaos, Romantic Entanglements] 1. Zhang Qingran suffered years of bullying and oppression as a child. After a hard-won childhood, she grew up convinced that on the road to power, nothing mattered but reaching the top. Even if every step was mired in mud, false affection, and honeyed words hiding a dagger. So she talked a group of privileged elites into becoming her loyal dogs, throwing themselves heart and soul into her political career. They loved her so desperately that each one firmly believed that once everything was settled, their beloved would marry them. Zhang Qingran: ...Don't spread rumors. I never said anything like that. 2. After she was successfully elected president, the elites finally realized, in utter shock, that she might have swindled them out of both their money and their virtue. So these poor fools, used and discarded, came to her full of resentment. With breaking hearts, tear-streaked faces, and unbearable anguish, they demanded: "Zhang Qingran, do you even have a heart? Is power the only thing you care about?!" When they realized there were other victims, they glared at one another, even angrier: "I wasn't your only victim?! Zhang Qingran, just how many other men do you have on the side? You'd go for this kind of pathetic loser too?!" ...Then, in an effort to prove that they were the one true spouse and everyone else was a shameless homewrecker, they started beating the hell out of each other in her presidential office. 3. "Someone once told me that good people have heaven, while bad people have everything." "Then I realized that even heaven was invented by bad people to deceive the good." "Disappointed?" "No. When I realized that, I was ecstatic." Highlights: 1. Not a strong female lead or a female-centric power fantasy. A Mary Sue con artist rises to the top, then turns on her lovers. 2. Everyone's favorite, with a cheat. The heroine is not a virgin, while the men are. 3. Multiple male leads. The heroine holds the upper hand psychologically. 4. The heroine's principles are flexible: intermittently idealistic, but in a constant moral vacuum. 5. She doesn't become president right away, but she is everyone's favorite from the start. 6. A romance-focused work written for practice, mainly about all kinds of dating. 7. An alternate world, fictional political systems, silly political maneuvering, and a tiny scope. Coming soon! "After the World Fell Apart, the Creator Returned" As a member of the Creator Clan, Zephyra took part in the "Creator Clan Youngling Creation Ability Exam" during the era of her coming-of-age ceremony, as required by clan rules. Starting from nothing, she created an entire world. Under her care, different species thrived and multiplied, developing their own civilizations and growing ever more prosperous. To fight the "Dark Side of the World," she also created the four High Gods, each wielding one of the four authorities: [Power], [Justice], [Compassion], and [Freedom]. These four mighty deities upheld the entire world, keeping evil at bay and defending it from the Dark Side's encroachment. Confidently, she withdrew from her world and submitted it to the competition committee as her entry. Then she won last place, had her application for adulthood rejected, and was ordered to remain a youngling for another era. Zephyra, stunned by the terrible news: "...Impossible! Absolutely impossible! The world I created is so wonderful. How could it come in last place? Is this not just bullying an honest person?!" Indignant, Zephyra caused a scene at the committee, and an elder of the Creator Clan kicked her straight into the world she had created herself. "Want to become an adult? No problem. Hurry up and make your world 'wonderful' enough, or you can forget about leaving!" Only after Zephyra returned to her world did she discover that the four High Gods had failed to hold back the Dark Side. For reasons unknown, it had completely consumed them, turning them into twisted, tyrannical rulers. The god who wielded the authority of [Power] sat above an arena, coldly watching lives of different species slaughter one another amid flying blood and flesh. The god who wielded the authority of [Justice] had become the ruthless ruler of a utopia, governing a fearful and exhausted populace with draconian laws. The god who wielded the authority of [Compassion] could not bear to see any sorrow or suffering in their domain, so anyone who wept, was injured, or refused to believe was put to death. The god who wielded the authority of [Freedom] created a vast conglomerate that monopolized resources in freedom's name. In their domain, neon lights and nightlife flourished alongside rigid class divisions, while the lower classes grew numb and struggled to survive. The moment they sensed Zephyra's arrival, four pairs of cold, bestial eyes opened in unison. In their completely twisted, corrupted eyes shone the same obsession, feverish devotion, hatred, and longing. My creator, my master, my Mother Goddess; my beloved, my hatred, my everything... Why did you abandon this world, your people, your children? Now that you have returned, never leave again. We will chew through your flesh, devour your soul, and feast on all that you are, so that you may stay by our side forever and ever... Theme: Those who achieve great things don't sweat the small stuff
