Quick Transmigration: Saving The Crazy Villainess

Chapter 253: Selena Tang (2)

Jiang Li stayed silent and began to review the memories of the so-called soul client. To not be annoyed by the smell of the alcohol and spoiled food currently filling the place, he grabbed one of the pillows from the sofa and used it to cover his face. He remained lying on the carpet.

He was back to modern, and the difference with the previous ones was that it was officially in a novel. Heck, even the pen name of the author was mentioned, an insanely stupid one at that, I'm_Proudly+Wearing-A@Green~Hat.

Was the author admitting he was a cuckolded husband and was even taking pride in it? Which man would be proud of being NTRed?

He must admit, for a second, he had the urge to kneel to the one who courageously used that pen name.

No, actually, he wanted to meet the person and crack his skull to see if there was a brain inside it! Or if this author's hair had been dyed green!

'Alright. I need to calm down and stop thinking of the irrelevant...' Jiang Li told himself and then started to watch the moving pictures in his head for real.

The plot officially began to play. And thus, he found that the story this time was quite an intriguing one. 

It was about a guy's journey to the top of the entertainment world. This person was a transmigrated one. 

Yup, the male protagonist this time was from another parallel world, and his name was Liu De.

Before the transmigration, the original owner of the body, who was also called Liu De, was a handsome guy with no background or money but wanted to strike it rich through being an actor. 

He used to be a struggling college student with two part-time jobs to pay for his tuition. However, Lady Luck seemed to have smiled at him as when he was walking outside a mall casually, a talent scout noticed him and told him that his face could feed him if he entered the entertainment industry. Later, this talent scout helped him sign a contract with a two-year-old mid-level entertainment agency and introduced him to a manager.

Unfortunately, his luck stopped there. Despite trying to mix in for almost a year, all the roles he got were always small ones or that of an extra. The salary he got so far ever since he started was barely enough for him to eat and pay his rent. Take note that the place rented out to him by the company was a small one, having only an area of twenty square meters. Even so, his pay was barely enough for it. How miserable was his situation back then? 

So yeah, career-wise, Liu De had nothing to show off. 

Family? The dude's parents were village farmers and had toiled hard under the sun just so they could send him to the city to study. He had several uncles who were either unmarried and unemployed or married and with fields to plow, but were still leeching off from his family. In short, the Liu family was not doing really well. 

The only thing he could be proud of was... Well, definitely not his studies. On-campus, he was not really excelling as an art student. But he was the envy of many male students because he managed to get himself a sensible girlfriend who was not only very smart, but was also very beautiful. His girlfriend was a campus goddess! And her name was Wen Bi'er. 

Having her as his girlfriend was his greatest source of pride. After all, she was a very popular girl, yet out of the hundred guys madly pursuing her, it was he who got chosen and became her lover.

They were already together for two years. She was even very supportive of him when he entered the entertainment circle and was frequently appearing in the set to deliver some food and drinks to him.

As a man, if a girl was that dedicated to him, wouldn't he strive to give her the best?

After all, how easy would it be to find somebody willing to be together with a dude lacking in everything but the face?

Of course, he must treasure her!

And so despite the numerous setbacks, he never gave up and persistently went to the classes the company arranged for him to further his skills. He also kept on trying his luck on auditions.

Every time he managed to successfully get a role, he would happily celebrate with Wen Bi'er. They would talk about life and marriage as they strolled the nearby park. Their love and bond always seemed so indestructible.

If only those days could stay forever... That would definitely be wonderful...

Unfortunately, as people said, nothing was permanent in this world apart from change.

The guy's misfortune started when a second-generation rich actor suddenly began to target him and gave him countless trouble. He was not left off, whether at work or in the company.

The pitiful number of work opportunities he had or could have in hand were taken away from him without him knowing why. While he had a hunch something must be going on, his level was too low for him to get assistance from others.

Without knowledge of who he somehow offended, there was nothing he could do to improve his situation. For several months, he was constantly feeling helpless. 

Then there came a time when due to lack of money revenue, he had resorted to taking part times again. However, one day, when he got back home after a very stressful and tiresome day, he just heard that accident happened to his father. His family members in the village were actually also not let off! All the problems were pushing him to the edge, it was to the point that clinical depression started to hit him off.

Probably the last straw which really triggered Liu De was the sudden betrayal of his girlfriend.

Wen Bi'er broke up with him. When she did, she came together with the actor who gave him a hard time at work countless times. That was when he realized what happened.

The troubles actually started due to a woman.

He got targeted because of his girlfriend! 

The rich actor must have seen Wen Bi'er once in the set and then fell for her but she was already taken so he, the boyfriend, became the stumbling block which should be removed. Most likely, while giving him a hard time, the devil also started to pursue his girlfriend. 

In the end, the girlfriend hooked up with the rich guy who caused all of his suffering.

What a laughable situation.

The man lost all hope and reason on that day. He got drunk, swearing to retaliate. He didn't want those people who trampled on his heart and pride to continue having good days! He wanted revenge! And so dark plans formed in his mind. 

However, misfortune seemed to be his twin. Without even taking a step to accomplish what he vowed to himself, he tripped on a bottle of beer, smashed his head against the edge of his table.... and died...

When the next day came, even though a pool of blood under his head had actually already dried, this man's eyes miraculously opened again, but this time another soul had already possessed it, somebody from a parallel world, and with the same name, Liu De.

The transmigrator was a forty-plus yeard old otaku, which would not have been bad if only he was also not an unfilial man and a NEET. Anyways, the guy was another loser from another dimension. But the difference was when he transmigrated, he had a cheat that only gods know where he had gotten from. Its name, Superstar System.

'Same creator as you?' Jiang Li temporarily paused the viewing of the memories. 

The one he asked was, of course, the system in his head. 

He just remembered it has very silly names: 025, and Crazy Villainess Saving System...

1. In China "wearing a green hat" (di l mo z) is an expression that Chinese use when a woman cheats on her husband or boyfriend because the phrase sounds similar to the word for cuckold. -
