The colleagues respectfully said, “Hello, Mr. Qin.”
Ruan Cunyun broke out in a cold sweat: Shit, I seem to have seen him at the comic exhibition four years ago. Am I going to be exposed on the first day?

Qin Fanglu, the co-founder of a black horse company, had started from scratch and climbed up through challenging experiences. His paperman obsession was buried deep underneath his mature and elite appearance.
No employee knows that the meticulous young entrepreneur was actually an Otaku for ten years with hundreds of thousands of fans online, and was addressed as “The Circle’s Great God Teacher Balls.”
Qin Fanglu considered himself as an extremely rational papermen-sexual.
He has never liked real people and doesn’t know how he should like them.
But the newly hired child unexpectedly barged into his life.

How should normal young people date?
The old acute Otaku took romance courses from scratch, yet why does he fail to understand it no matter how much he studied?

After Rebirth, I Become Popular in the Entertainment Industry

After transmigrating through different books, Xu Qiao finally returned to the real world. However, he became the target of online ridicule in the entertainment industry. Xu Qiao, branded as a mere vase, lacked singing and dancing skills, possessed no acting talent, and was particularly disliked for his personality. After a scandal involving drunken misconduct, Xu Qiao disappeared from the public eye for a period of time.
Making a comeback through a poorly made web drama, Xu Qiao took on the role of the third male lead. This character was a disliked brothel attendant, irritatingly portrayed with flamboyant makeup.
Fans of the original work expressed their disdain for this detestable character, stating that having Xu Qiao play the role was like a true-to-life representation.
After the web series aired, on-screen Xu Qiao mesmerized with silky, flirtatious eyes and seductive red lips. Swaying a wine glass, he embodied the intoxicating demeanor of a tipsy concubine, truly resembling a refined imperial consort.
Netizens: “Bro, who are you???” #Is it still possible for haters to convert into fans now?# #The male celebrity I once criticized eventually became my ultimate bias#
[Author’s Guide:
1. heaven-defying golden finger, made for fun
2. fictional setting, no need to overthink
3. author’s writing is amateurish with flawed logic, so feel free to drop it without notifying] 
【T/N: PLEASE READ. PLEASE READ!
1. This story is highly MC-centric, with an overpowered MC. As clearly stated in the author’s note, he possesses a heaven-defying golden finger. HIS ABILITIES ARE A KEY PART OF THE STORY, so expect frequent emphasis on the MC’s OPness throughout the story.
2. Romance is slow-blooming and secondary to the plot. No tooth-decaying fairy tale love story here.
3. The primary focus of the story is not on the transmigration itself, but rather on the MC’s life after returning to the real world, as indicated by the title. No world-hopping adventures here.
4. Lastly, as the author humbly mentioned, the writing is AMATEURISH and contains flawed logic. If you’re looking for a tightly-constructed narrative with polished writing, THERE ARE OTHER BOOKS THAT MAY BETTER MEET YOUR EXPECTATIONS.
READER DISCRETION IS ADVISED. Thanks for reading this first.】

At first, when he learned that he was forced to go to many different routine worlds and be reborn into all kinds of cannon fodder, he was against it.
Because while villains usually all only have a moment of satisfaction, the endings of cannon fodder are also frequently quite miserable.
But the man who gave him the system told him that this system not only has all types of powerful functions, but he can also break the routine lives of the cannon fodder. If he achieves this satisfactorily for each world, he can even become a god.
He’s already experienced over a thousand reincarnations, but hasn’t yet been a god. Since it sounds pretty great, why not just try it out.
From that moment on, he began the irreversible path of tyrannically oppressing people, while conveniently tearing open those white moonlights and so-called righteous people’s hypocritical masks.
His goal: wearing the villain’s role to walk other people’s righteous paths, leaving them no path to follow.


Cannon Fodder Cheat System

It was only after Jian Xingsui’s death that he realized that he was the cannon fodder in a book with a dog-blooded plot. He was a dumb and s*upid fake young master in it.
​In the book, he was reluctant to return to his poor ”biological” parents. He was greedy of the Jian Family’s wealth and also wanted to suppress the protagonist shou of the book, the real young master. With the tricks that he had personally thought out in his pig-headed brain, he finally succeeded in annoying the hell out of everyone in the family:
His CEO former eldest brother: “I don’t have a younger brother like you.”
His celebrity former second brother: “Never mention to anyone in the entertainment industry that I used to be your brother!!!”
His former father: “Get out, I’m so disappointed in you.”
​​After that, he was kicked out of the house and had a terrible ending.
After he was reborn, when it was the day when the protagonist shou came up to his door, instead of waiting for his family to talk to him, he took the initiative: “You guys won’t have to say anything, I am willing to leave the house!”
Not long after returning home, his poor “biological” parents said: We’re sorry, you don’t seem to be our own child.
Jian Xingsui: ??
Later, the top wealthy family, the Shen family, finally found their young master who had been separated from them for many years. The whole family rejoiced and could not wait to make up for everything to this child:
His CEO biological eldest brother: “Is this 50 million pocket money enough for you?”
His celebrity biological second brother: “You can casually choose any one of these scripts.”
His biological parents: “Suisui is really our pride!”
When the people of the Jian family finally remembered the poor kid who had been kicked out and wanted to give him some compensation, they found out that the new, praised by everyone, rising celebrity in the entertainment industry seemed to be their s*upid and annoying child…

Can You Afford To Raise?

Fang Nianchi had once reflected on his previous blindness and impulsivity.
He seemed to deliberately ignore the contradictions and evasion in Zhou Tongan, recklessly, desperately, like a moth to a flame, diving headlong into the fantasy he himself had woven.
Handsome artist gong (Zhou Tongan) x Gentle libertine shou (Fang Nianchi)
The seemingly bad gong isn’t truly bad, the seemingly libertine shou isn’t truly libertine, a bit of hardship for pleasure’s sake, melodrama lightly sprinkled.
Slightly sour in the early stages, slightly bitter in the middle stages, guaranteed sweetness in the later stages.
Realistic story of reunion after separation, the shou does not remain chaste after the breakup.
The shou is 0.5 (bis*xual or ambiguous), and there won’t be any reversal of roles in the main couple.
The side couple is BG (Boy x Girl), there will be significant conflicts, but not much of the story is devoted to them.
Neither the gong nor the shou are perfect characters, there are many misunderstandings between the two, and all foreshadowing will be gradually revealed.

A new café had opened downstairs from the company. The shop’s signature item was neither coffee nor cake, but the boss’s good looks.
Jiang Ying, who was biased about appearances, was not careful and had left her heart over there.
Since then, a trip to Cloudside has become a daily ritual. 
At some point, Jiang Ying checked her bank account and realized that her financial situation from the past few months was something to worry about.
Thus, she said to Yun Xian, “Boss Yun, I must be your store’s biggest customer. Why don’t you consider letting me invest in it? Let’s make money together.”
Yun Xian glanced at her as he wiped the glass and said in a flat tone, “Forget about investing.”
Jiang Ying felt like she was wronged. “I help with the taste test every time there’s a new product! When you said you couldn’t fall asleep, I thought of ways to coax you to sleep! I even painted the mural on the wall for you! *sigh* If I can’t even invest, then I’m at too much of a loss!”
“Oh, it is a bit of a loss,” Yun Xian said when he learned about her reasoning. “Then I can only let you make up for it by being the boss’s wife.”
Yun Xian x Jiang Ying
