Melon Eating Cannon Fodder, On Air!

An Ning opened her eyes and found herself transmigrated into a novel which she had just read. In the novel, the original An Ning nothing more than cannon fodder - a quiet girl whose silence was painted as arrogance. Every setup turned into a scandal, and misunderstandings tarnished her reputation, until by the finale she was buried under trending tags like #TwoFacedQueen and #MostHatedContestant. But now that former A-list actress An Ning had become her, she wasn’t about to let that happen. Armed with her superstar instincts and a melon-eating system that boosted her luck whenever she gossiped or reveled in drama, she was ready to flip the script. Low luck value meant traps and misunderstandings. But high luck value? It meant schemes collapsing, netizens cheering, and golden opportunities falling right into her lap. This time, An Ning would protect the original’s dignity, reclaim her reputation, and maybe-just maybe- find herself in an unscripted love story. Peeking from the door, An Ning thought she’d catch her boss in the act - after all, the grapevine said he was secretly in a relationship, and it wasn’t every day she could eat melon about her own boss. But the office was empty. Just as she turned to leave, an ominous voice from behind. “Enjoying yourself, Miss An?” She stiffened, caught red-handed.”…I was just passing by.” He stepped closer, his voice low, carrying a hint of amusement. “Passing by at midnight?” The system chimed: [Ding!Unexpected encounter detected - Heartbeat +50] (Side note:”melon-eating” is a Chinese slang for watching or consuming gossip/drama as an onlooker. A “melon” = a juicy piece of gossip)

Dominate Showbiz: Media Tycoon Discovered My Talent

Charles Kosonen walked into a hidden bar one night expecting nothing but a good drink. He had only visited on one of his random whims, something to spice up his endlessly boring days as a man born with everything, yet utterly dissatisfied with everything. He quickly found a seat at the bar. Then he noticed a beautiful girl lingering by the stage, chatting with the band like she was their singer. Beautiful, she was, with those brilliant blue eyes, deep as sapphire, and her long black hair flowing carelessly down her back. But in the world he lived in, beauty was always in abundance, and for a pair of eyes so used to gems, even a shining jewel could start to lose its luster. The corner of his mouth lifted into a faint smirk. He'd come for the drinks, as one of his business partners had praised when recommending this place. The singing was merely an extra. Or so he thought. The moment the liquid in his crystal-clear glass touched his lips was when the girl took the stage. The moment the cold sip slid down his throat was when her lips parted. And then she sang. The glass froze in his hand. If an angel could sing, why would she choose to descend into this hidden bar, of all places? The song wasn't a particularly popular one. The band behind her was just C-class amateur. And yet, with her voice alone, she took the song, polished it into a gemstone, and made it hers. He looked around the room. It wasn't just him, but every single man present there that night had their eyes glued to her, their face a mesmerized expression. A decision was made. He would have her under his wing, no matter what it cost.
