At the same time, the latest post in the forum’s movie and TV section discussing the plot of a popular drama has sparked intense discussions!

[Attention: Has anyone not seen Sister Yan’s fitness theme this time? Hahaha, I’ll be very sad if anyone hasn’t seen it, okay?]

The main post immediately reveals the title of Yan Yue’s new drama and the creatively designed cover.

[Oh my god, a fitness theme? Are you trying to make me laugh to death and inherit my interstellar flower credit? Hahaha]

I just saw that someone in the neighboring thread was criticizing Sister Yan’s title this time for being too exaggerated! I want to ask, where is it exaggerated? Doesn’t this fit the theme? Runaway marriage! 99 times! And she even married the richest guy’s father! Isn’t that exciting enough? But, I indeed haven’t seen any mention of youth in this.

[Hey, did anyone notice the female lead on our cover isn’t youthful and beautiful enough?]

[I’m guessing that the female lead was originally supposed to marry the richest guy, who is probably the male lead, but due to various melodramatic plot twists, she ends up marrying the richest guy’s father.]

[To be honest, I’ve read some forbidden novels from ancient times in my archaeology class before, and they had plotlines where the female lead marries the male lead’s father. Ancient people even classified such plotlines and called it “little mama literature.”]

[Hey, it’s you again!! You, a student majoring in archaeology, don’t pay attention in class and secretly read these forbidden ancient texts, what are you up to? I might report you for not paying attention in class!]

[Hahaha, this is “little mama literature,” right? In that case, in the Star Temptation drama, Gu Ze, Gu Chen, and Bing Shang are all part of “sister-in-law literature,” right?]

[Ancient people’s lives were so colorful! How else could they come up with such bizarre literature?]

[Is anyone seriously discussing the plot? I haven’t seen Shan Shan’s plot guesses this time.]

When Chen Lin Shan opened the thread, she immediately saw someone calling her, and she promptly posted the plot she had just written:

“First of all, judging by the title, I guess it’s similar to what most of you have guessed. It’s probably about the richest guy liking the female lead, but the female lead doesn’t like the richest guy. After several runaway attempts, she meets the richest guy’s father and ends up with him. However, based on Yan Yue’s past style, there will definitely be some revenge plotline, but let’s not focus on that for now.

Regarding the cover of this drama by Yan Yue, it’s very creative this time. You can see on the cover, there are four men and four women, but if you look closely, there are actually only four main characters. In the middle of the four people, there’s a mirror, and the characters on the left side of the mirror are surrounded by black roses, while the characters on the right side of the mirror have pure white jasmine behind them. I guess this represents that the four main characters start off pure and later all turn to the dark side! (Thinking about it, it sounds really cool! I believe the main theme of Yan Yue’s drama is about trust!)

But here’s a detail. I don’t know if you noticed, but one of the male main characters is not inside the mirror. Not only that, he’s neither surrounded by the black roses nor in the blooming jasmine. I guess he might be the only one who remains true to himself throughout the story.

As for the specific plot, I really can’t guess more this time. And I’ve also noticed that Yan Yue’s dramas are hard to predict in terms of plot. I even got it wrong last time, so to maintain my credibility on this account, this time I’ll just analyze and not make predictions, so I don’t get constantly proven wrong by Yan Yue!]

After Shan Shan guessed the plot, many netizens quickly gathered to discuss it. After reading her reply, they were amazed because it seemed like there was indeed one main character who didn’t enter the mirror world or get caught up in the black roses and jasmine. Could this character be the true male lead?

[I get it! This guy who stands out must be the richest guy himself!]

[No, why can’t it be the richest guy’s father? I’m betting on this guy being the richest guy’s father.]

[Actually, I think it’s the richest guy’s father, but why do all the main characters on the cover look around the same age? Yan Yue surely wouldn’t make a basic mistake like messing up the age data of the androids.]

[Hey, can’t the richest guy’s father have taken some sheep placenta?]

[?? Hahaha!]

[I have a feeling that there might not be the richest guy’s father on the cover.]

[Saying something related to the plot, I feel like even though the female lead ran away from marriage, she and the richest guy actually love-hate each other, like a classic “enemies to lovers” type. If that’s the case, then maybe the female lead ends up with the richest guy’s father because he forcibly takes her?!]

[Wow, that’s an exciting plot! Father and son falling for the same woman, the son relentlessly pursuing the female lead, and the father forcibly taking her! Exciting, too exciting! Given Yan Yue’s style, I bet your plot guess is right!]

Someone in the thread speculated that the richest guy’s father forcibly takes the female lead, while the richest guy himself loves her but can’t have her. This theory gained the agreement of many participants, who believed that, based on Yan Yue’s previous works, such a stimulating and eye-catching plot was highly likely!

Those who enjoyed speculating about the plot quickly rushed to the official website to start their journey of following the drama!

On the other side, Chen Lin Shan, after leaving the Ye family, was taken back home by her parents. After the incident with the Ye family, her parents were worried about her safety and didn’t want her to be alone outside, fearing that she might encounter another Ye Tianming.

As for Chen Lin Shan’s hometown, it was located on a trash planet. However, the trash planet of today was vastly different from what it used to be. Over a decade ago, a young beggar on the trash planet stumbled upon a rare energy stone in a certain location. Initially, the beggar thought he had made a mistake, but after verification, it turned out to be one of the rarest energy minerals in the galaxy. The area was later heavily developed by the beggar’s family.

Today, more than a decade later, the former beggar’s family had become the richest on the trash planet.

However, despite the changes over the past decade, people’s deep-rooted beliefs about the trash planet persisted. It had been looked down upon and dismissed as barren and poor for centuries. Even with the recent improvements, residents still considered it the lowest-tier planet. When people talked about income disparity, the poor always thought of the “trash planet” first.

Just like before, someone dug into Yan Yue’s background and found out she’s from a trash planet and an orphan, immediately labeling Yan Yue with tags like “tragic upbringing” and “poverty.” While it’s true that Yan Yue used to be poor, “poverty” has become synonymous with Yan Yue, not the trash planet itself.

After returning home, Chen Lin Shan decided to take a break and prepare to find a new job in her hometown. For the current citizens, binge-watching dramas was the best way to relax.

After finishing the thread discussing the plot, Chen Lin Shan couldn’t contain her excitement and eagerly went to watch the original series. Although she was interested in works by Su Manman, An Xiaoyu, and Fang Ji this time, Yan Yue’s title was too intriguing. She wanted to see how the female lead ended up marrying the richest guy’s father!

Chen Lin Shan’s parents noticed their daughter was in a good mood, and they couldn’t help but be curious about what she was watching. Approaching her, they saw the male lead on screen, red-eyed, pressing the female lead against a wall, forcing her to give her kidney to a girl named “Shi Yu.”

Chen Lin Shan’s parents: “?”

Is it really this easy to give away a kidney? Just ask and it’s done? Want to cut it, and it’s cut?

The crucial part was that, according to her daughter, this seemed to be the male lead from the cover. Chen Lin Shan’s parents: “???”

What’s happening to TV dramas nowadays? Why do they all have random people as male leads? Last time, the body double for Gu Chen in Star Temptation was a murderer, and this time the male lead wants to cut the female lead’s kidney right away?

Chen Lin Shan’s mother couldn’t help but ask, “Is this a drama by someone named Yan Yue?”

Chen Lin Shan paused and looked at her parents in surprise. “Dad, Mom, you know about Yan Sister?”

Chen Lin Shan’s mother didn’t waste any time. She poured two glasses of water, one for herself and one for Chen Lin Shan’s father, who had already set up chairs on both sides of their daughter. Then, they sat down next to her and urged her, “Why are you just standing there? Start it already.”

Chen Lin Shan: “?”

Alright, she understood. No one could escape Yan Sister’s melodramatic dramas!

Having her parents to discuss the plot with, Chen Lin Shan’s drama-watching experience became even more enjoyable.

As the movie began, the familiar disclaimer appeared: “[Everything is purely fictional…]”

Then, the scene shifted directly—

[A handsome man with cold, golden eyes pressed a woman with gentle, purple eyes and long purple curls against the wall.

The man, with fiery golden eyes filled with pain, spoke hoarsely, “Nangong You Zi, I, Huangfu Aotian, have never asked for help from anyone. But this time, even if I beg you, beg you to save her. You two grew up together since childhood, I think you should want her to get better even more than I do. It’s just a kidney, and from now on, no matter what you want, I can give it to you…”

The girl with purple hair, known as Nangong You Zi, had an infinitely sad expression, tears on the verge of falling from her eyes. She said, “Huangfu Aotian, do you really love her that much? Then what about me? What am I to you?”

Huangfu Aotian was deeply pained, but soon, he resolutely said, “She is my wife now, and she will be in the future. I, Huangfu Aotian, will have only her in this lifetime.”

With a loud “smack,” Nangong You Zi slapped Huangfu Aotian in the face, leaving him stunned. When he looked up again, he saw Nangong You Zi crying bitterly.

Unable to resist the softening of his heart, Huangfu Aotian hugged the purple-haired girl in front of him.

At this moment, the camera slightly pulled back, revealing Huangfu Aotian and Nangong You Zi in the ward, separated by the glass door of the ward, while a girl with pink hair bit her lip and watched them embrace from inside the room. She tightly clenched her right hand, her nails digging into the flesh of her palm, blood dripping onto the floor.

In her heart, she thought fiercely: Nangong You Zi, this time, I’ve only taken one of your kidneys. Consider yourself lucky! Next time, I’ll make sure you die!

The next second, the pink-haired girl’s name appeared in her introduction—Huangfu Aotian’s wife: Nangong Jiao Fen.]

Audience: ?

Audience: ?????
