#I've Got the World Eating Out of My Hand
The waves of the Yangtze push the waves ahead. Wen Cun had just come of age, but was already a rising star on the verge of breaking out. Several major companies competed to sign her. To everyone's surprise, she chose the past-its-prime Yuwei Pictures. Though even a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, Yuwei hadn't produced a hit drama in five years.
After signing, the model employee and obedient good girl suddenly seemed like a different person.
Today she cursed out a top-tier star, tomorrow she insulted an award-winning actor. She put directors in their place in the morning and producers in order at night. She picked fights with everyone she should have known better than to mess with.
Even she thought something was off.
Wen Cun: There are more and more antagonists provoking me.

The good times were over for Zhou Wenzheng, deputy head of Yuwei's talent department. He thought he'd signed a popular young star, but it turned out he'd signed Nezha. This aloof bachelor, who stood above the crowd, plummeted into the depths, playing both father and mother.
And this brat seemed to have it in for him in particular.
Company anniversary party. Night. Interior.
A colleague told Wen Cun to take off her sunglasses. Wen Cun: No thanks. I can't help rolling my eyes when I see impostors.
Zhou Wenzheng thought she was taking a shot at everyone. Later, he saw what she'd saved his contact as in a chat screenshot and realized she'd meant him specifically.

Wen Cun's brazen attitude made her a sensation in an industry that looked down on the low and fawned over the high. Everyone said her family background was unfathomable, and respectfully called her "Miss." As Miss rose to fame, the whole company celebrated her success, and things gradually started looking up for them.
Putting the big picture first, Zhou Wenzheng put up with her again and again until he couldn't take it anymore. "Why do you hate me so much?"
Wen Cun, feeling guilty: I don't hate you.
Zhou Wenzheng: Then why do you send me middle-finger emojis every day? What did I do to you?
Wen Cun: ?
Wen Cun: Those were Loopy giving two thumbs up, weren't they?
The good news: Her revenge plan hadn't been exposed.
The bad news: For the past six months, she'd sent middle-finger emojis to the entire world.
