Epilogue

Now that Maifan is reigning supreme, many popular idols have emerged from the BL dramas, but there haven't been any from the girls' side. This is a good opportunity.
Miao Feng saw that she was intrigued and quickly confessed, "I want to let you know in advance, the other leading actress is Qiao Shuixin. Think it through."
Liu Xinxin paused for a moment and thought for a while before saying, "Let me take a look at the script first."
She had already denied this drama in her heart, but changed her mind after reading the script.
Because the script of this drama is really amazing, the two female characters are fleshed out and very impressive. There is no argument of who is weaker, just different strengths.
The plot has strong logical tension, with thrilling suspense that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats. The two main characters complement each other in the ancient palace, from assisting each other to falling in love to eventually becoming enemies. In the end, they give up their power and wander the world, without any prolongation.
She hasn't seen such a good script in a long time, but why does it have to be a double female lead? And why with Qiao Shuixin!
After much hesitation for a whole day, she still decided to take it. Who cares as long as it can become popular? Didn't they say Qiao Shuixin has a natural ability to make people popular.
After finding ten thousand reasons for herself, she called Miao Feng and told her that she wanted to act.
Miao Feng thought it was a smart decision and the two main roles were set, planning to start shooting before the Chinese New Year. They need to start preparing now.
When Yun Ke heard this news, he was not surprised. Liu Xinxin was not foolish and would not give up this only opportunity to turn things around. After listening to Miao Feng's nagging for a while, she hung up the phone and walked towards the solemn iron gate with a heavy heart.
Golden Daguang picked up the phone in the tempered glass window and looked provocatively at Yuan Yunkai, "How have you been, superstar?"
Golden Daguang's natural look is indeed that of a big-eyed cutie, but he has heavy dark circles and looks somewhat aged due to the lack of maintenance in prison.
"Don't you see I don't look good? I'm not wearing any makeup," Yuan Yunke casually said.
"Those of you in this line of work have money, lots of money. You can have any face you want," Jin Daguang leaned closer. "Did no one tell you that you became ugly after giving birth?"
"Not only have I become ugly, but I also have stretch marks. I have talked about these things on the show, using my own example to warn young girls to be cautious about giving birth."
With a face full of disbelief, Kim Daegwang knew this woman very well. It was all just appearances and not real, simply a constructed persona.
"I will be able to go out soon, and you will be able to see me outside soon. Oh, by the way, did you go see your younger brother? How is he doing?"
Looking at the mockery in her eyes, Yuan Yunko sighed deeply.
"Is it worth sacrificing several years of your youth just for this?"
As Jin Daguang heard her say these words, a crazed glint appeared in his eyes. "Of course it's worth it. Your pain brings me joy. Ever since that failed audition, I've been sick. I think about death every day, fueled by my hatred for you. Now you're suffering, I can see it. Do you think I'm worth it?"
She pressed her face against the glass, "Do you know what kind of poison I used to seduce him? It's the latest type, something I can never get rid of in this lifetime. You can never escape him...hahaha..."
Yuan Yunke didn't believe she was really sick until now, but that is not an excuse for her to hurt others. It seems that Qiao Shuixin was manipulated by this woman and Zhang Yanwei was forced to death. She did not succeed in this life.
Perhaps it's because Yuan Yunke is too calm, which makes Jin Daguan feel bored and stop laughing. "Why, don't you think it's funny? Well, this is indeed too cruel for you, but there's nothing we can do. Just bear with it and wait for me to get out to take revenge."
Yun Ke looked at her coldly, "Jin Da Guang, oh no, Jin Xiao An. Why are you so worthless? If you're jealous of me, just say it. Why do you have to say that my fans caused you to have an emotional breakdown and fall out of the spotlight? Didn't you realize what happened at that time? You insist on making me say it."
She smiled and said, "Alright, let me make it clear to you."
"On October 18, 2011, at 2:30 in the morning, Sun Xiaowei finished shooting an advertisement and returned to the practice room to practice the dance for the next performance. The dance teacher finished teaching her and left, so she was alone in the practice room practicing. I remember it so clearly because I couldn't sleep and went to practice dancing, as you had mocked me during the day. When I arrived at the practice room, I saw an incredible scene - a man was trying to rape Sun Xiaowei, and there was someone taking photos on the side. I was terrified and shouted for help, which scared the two people away."
Yun Ke learned from her and approached the glass. "Sun Xiaowei's boss was very angry and put in a lot of effort to catch that man. His name is Zhang Xun, a bartender at a bar. He said his girlfriend is called Jin Daguang, and that's you."
Jin Daguang held the microphone tightly, his eyes seemingly wanting to devour Yuan Yunka, but there was also a hint of guilt in his eyes compared to before.
"Sun Xiaowei was a versatile AEC who was once the most popular. Your jealous eyes couldn't hide it anymore. But what you hated more was me, I know that, because I started from scratch and had good luck, many people followed my growth trajectory. I even once held the top spot in popularity, only to be criticized by many people. I feel sorry for my fans who have to practice in the training room every day until late. So that day, you should have targeted me, right? But you ended up mistaking the person and offended someone who you absolutely can't offend."
"Zhang Xun is indeed a scumbag, as he shifted all the blame onto you. After being warned by the boss of Sun Xiaowei and the production team, your screen time disappeared. You knew that your career was over, and then you discovered your boyfriend's betrayal, which crushed you. In the last performance, you made a major mistake and the director did not give you even a close-up shot."
Kim Dag-gwang's lips trembled slightly and said, "You really know everything!"
"I didn't know. When I went in that day, it was dimly lit and I couldn't see anything clearly, I only heard voices. But intuition told me something was not right, so I shouted. I don't know anything about what happened next, Sun Xiaowei won't tell anyone either. It was only after I heard your name from someone else's mouth that I felt like I heard it somewhere before - you mentioned it during a conversation with someone in the water room once, you said your nickname was Dag-gwang. I laughed at your name in my mind back then. But it was such a trivial matter that I forgot about it until this incident made me remember it. I had to use many connections to find out about the past."
Yunke smiled and looked at Jin Daguang, who was about to collapse. "Your depression is your own doing and has nothing to do with others. I don't acknowledge your revenge."
"Also, thank you for dealing with this prodigal son, Qiao Xiaojun, for me. Oh, you said he can't quit his drug addiction, even better. I will spend money to keep him in a detoxification center for a lifetime. I --- am completely liberated." She gratefully blew a kiss to him, "Thank you, my unrecognized enemy."
After saying these words, Yuan Yunku never looked at her again and walked away with his bag.
"Come back! Come back to me! Who do you think you are to deny it? What right do you have to be jealous? You are just a waste!"
She desperately pounded on the glass window while two police officers yelled angrily and restrained her, taking her back to the cell.
She crazily shouted at the prison guards, "You know that debut spot was supposed to be mine! Mine! It was that woman with the gun! Her fans..."
With the sound of an iron door closing, it completely cut off her desperate cries for help.
Extra -
"With the popularity of the drama 'Phoenix Blood', the two female leads in the show have become red-hot, navigating through a BL-dominated environment and creating two top female stars. Among them, Liu Xin Xin has risen to fame through this. In this drama, Qiao Shui Xin has proven her acting skills and potential, hoping that everything goes smoothly for her as she reaches the top. Qiao Shui Xin also lives up to her knack for making people famous, not even sparing female actresses this time. In this drama, the character Jié played by Liu Xin Xin is resolute in character and exceptionally clever..."
Listening to the female host on the screen praising her, Liu Xinxin felt a little embarrassed.
Later, she heard that Qiao Shuixin had voluntarily requested her to play Princess Jie and even said that her temperament was the most suitable for this role, and so on. The investor was a fan of Qiao Shuixin, so they agreed, and that's how she got this role. Thinking back, she was a little silly when she was considering it.
Little Wang could tell from her appearance that she was lost in her thoughts again. "New sister, don't dwell on those things. It's time for you to pick a script. Now that your status has changed, your popularity and fame have skyrocketed. Good scripts are coming to you, so you need to make a careful choice."
Things are really different now, all I can say is that it's great to have become famous.
"By the way, do you know what Sheng Baichen's recent situation is?"
Xiao Wang pouted, unwilling to answer.
"Come on." Liu Xinxin grabbed her arm, "I just want to know how he is doing now, not thinking about getting back together, okay?"
Little Wang sighed, "It's still the same. Don't worry about him. Although he had a setback when he just became popular and disappeared for a while, there's still a chance for him to make a comeback. He won't starve. If he has a chance to become popular again in the future, I hope he doesn't mess it up."
If he annoys my new sister again, I'll kill him!
Seeing the gloomy expression on Liu Xinxin's face, Xiao Wang said, "Alright, don't worry about him. He comes from an entertainment family, and there will always be people to support him. You should focus on the singing performance at the Starlight Gala tonight. You just caught a cold."
"Oh yeah, if I sing badly, I'll be trending again."
"I have to sing the theme song with Qiao Shuixin tonight, I can't mess up this time. She sings much better than Qiao Shuixin, I can't lose."
In another room in this building, Xiao Die is trying on clothes with Mei Shi, and they have been trying on clothes for a long, long time.
Frustrated, Yuan Yunke throws down the newspaper and says, "Are you ever going to be done? I need to go eat!"
"What are you thinking of having for lunch? Do you have any important matters to attend to?" An Xiaodie approached, holding a magnificent trailing red dress, she compared it and shook her head. "No, red is too mature, you have been following the route of a mature woman lately, making you look older. If you are photographed with her younger face, you will be criticized again. Your singing is not as good as hers, as the nation's first beauty, your image must not be ruined!"
"Speechless." Yuan Yunke, who had been worn out and almost couldn't hold on, finally chose a carefree blue dress when An Xiaodie said.
"This one is nice. You have lost quite a bit of weight recently."
Yuan Yunkai nodded in agreement, "Yes, you are right."
Seeing her dismissive attitude, An Xiaodie could not help but feel annoyed. She wanted to say something, but decided to keep quiet. This person had no sense of crisis at all, completely unafraid of being replaced. She had a heart as big as the sky, and it would be useless to say anything.
Of course, she has the confidence in herself. She has the works and the buzz. She is extremely popular. It's just that the family's troubles are distressing. It would be better if her brother goes in and saves her the trouble of dealing with issues all the time. It would be best if he stays in there for life.
The woman named Jin Daguang has gone insane in prison and is now in a mental hospital. It seems that she will have to stay there for the rest of her life. It was only later that people found out about the complicated relationship between this woman and Shui Xin during the talent show. She did bad things and even tried to blame others for her mistakes. She is truly sick. Let her stay in the mental hospital for the rest of her life.
In the only Michelin restaurant in Shanghai, Yuan Yunkuo and Lu Nianqiao looked at the chef's calm and unhurried movements ahead, already starving.
"How much does it cost for the two of us?"
"38,000."
"Yuan Yunke whispered softly, 'What if someone sees us without a private room?'"
"Don't worry, today I am a special guest, and this meal is just for the two of us." Lu Nianqiao smiled and expressed gratitude to the waiter.
Yuan Yunke no longer asks questions, knowing that his family background is extraordinary, so it should be easy. He thoroughly enjoyed a meal of dazzling light shows.
I must say that sitting in the UV, feeling the rhythm of music and light perfectly complementing each dish, gives diners an exquisite experience that goes beyond the food itself. It seems to make you feel the ultimate charm of the dishes, even if you know it's just bread.
"...Now that you're so popular, can I not afford to hire you for a TV drama?" Lu Nianqiao said with a smile.
Now Lu Nianqiao has gone solo, having set up her own company and recruiting some artists, flourishing in her career.
"Of course I can afford it. It depends on your script. If I like it, I can even give you money." Yuan Yunko's exaggerated statement was actually true. The female protagonist in domestic scripts should not have any desires. She should not have desires for power, money, or fame. Desires are traits of a malicious supporting female character, and she must have a negative outcome.
原云柯现在的咖位可以选择剧本，但大多数的女星不可以。
Lùniàn Qiáo nod, "I understand what you mean, so it is even more necessary for us people at the top to change this rule, so that everyone can benefit. Do you think we male stars have to play the role of a domineering president or a scumbag? " He took a sip of red wine, "I have found a few young writers, they have some ideas, I think we can give it a try."
Yuan Yunke loved hearing these words, "Okay, got it. If the female lead is interested, I'm willing to take on the role."
She smiled and raised her glass, clinking it with his, "May we one day change this film and television industry."
"Yes, I can."
Lù Niànqiáo's eyes were filled with intoxicating affection, and he glanced at the charming and beautiful woman, taking a sip of red wine.
【Congratulations to the host for completing the task. You can now return to your own world with your current attributes.】
When Ouyang Ke heard the word "acorn" in her mind, she lost consciousness. When she woke up, she found herself in the hospital.
The sweet nurse saw her wake up and said, "Are you Ouyang Ke? I waited for you to wake up to tell you that there was an error in your examination report. There is nothing wrong with your body, you just have low blood sugar."
Oh.
The plot arranged by the system is really melodramatic, it's really true to its reputation.
The nurse noticed her cold attitude and awkwardly told her to rest well before leaving.
Yuan Yunkuo glanced at her phone and saw that her mother had made over ten calls. She remembered the desperate jump she had taken and felt calm in her heart.
It's all in the past now, and although she only has herself in the future, it's enough.
Severing ties with these insatiable vampires is the first step she needs to take now.
She blocks the phone numbers of all her relatives and returns alone to her rented apartment to pack her belongings.
She didn't take the postgraduate entrance exam and also didn't go for the job interview recommended by her teacher in order to take care of her parents up close. She missed one opportunity after another and ended up only having cheap family affection.
If she hadn't experienced everything from time travel, she might still be unable to let go of the torment of 'family affection' and end up being strangled into a pool of blood, then tell other women who are unwilling to sacrifice for their families, 'You don't have family affection, family affection is priceless.' But the truth is, in families that favor boys over girls, the love given to sons is in the form of spending money on them, while the love given to daughters is in the form of making them spend money on the parents. It may sound unbelievable, but it is what many exploited women are doing.
From this moment on, she is determined to break this cycle and ensure that a family that favors sons over daughters will receive their deserved retribution.
In this lifetime, she will only live for herself.
She cast a glance back at the small house filled with painful memories, firmly locking the door and isolating the source of her suffering.
Leave here, cut off the bonds of family, and ride freely in the wide world.
You see, sometimes it is oneself that binds oneself. Freedom comes easier than you think.
