[A fake “forceful takeover” breadwinner who makes grand promises to get rich meets a true “playing hard to get” superstar who takes the bait]
Zhong Jiuyin was a martial arts prodigy who had spent years mixing with men. But the skill she had truly mastered wasn’t martial arts manuals, it was “how to make empty promises like a man.”
She could have lived comfortably on her skills, but, as luck would have it, on a dark and stormy night of murder, she suddenly transmigrated into the body of an unlucky, dead-broke B-list actress in the modern world.
She had to appear on a variety show right away, and her unscrupulous agent warned her that if she failed to seize this opportunity, she’d be fired.
What was she supposed to do?!
After racking her brains, she decided her only option was to use the one skill she had perfected above all others.
“Once I make some money, I’ll buy you gloves. Look at those little hands, all scraped up. It breaks my heart.”
“Lend me fifty now, and once I’m number one, I’ll pay you back tenfold.”
“At first, I wanted to spend a little money and buy you something, but then I worried you’d think I saw you as someone who only cares about money. So I folded you a jar of stars as a pure expression of my feelings. It may be a little cheap, but it comes straight from my heart.”
“Leave him. I can support you even if I have to pick up trash.”
All the celebrities on the show were so stuffed with her grand promises that their eyes rolled back. Her agent had thought she was doomed.
But when she tried to fool the last person, something miraculous happened: there was a spark between them.
Zhong Jiuyin: “Just hang in there. Next time, next time I get the chance, I’ll definitely take you to the movies.”
Yan Cheng: “Then let’s go at eight tonight.” / “I’m getting the real thing from this promise today.jpg”
Zhong Jiuyin: “…We’re on a show. Wouldn’t it be bad to sneak off on a date?!”
