I really didn't intend to make a living based on my looks.

Chapter 125 was so good!

The plot of the first episode is very fast-paced!

After rescuing the little girl, the Korean drama fast-forwards to 400 years later.

However, Jiang Chen added a quick plot transition here.

During the Ming Dynasty, he stood on a bridge in the water towns of Jiangnan, gazing at the misty rain.

During the Qing Dynasty, he walked alone on the snowy plains of northern China.

During the Republic of China era, he wore a long gown under the neon lights of Shanghai, his gaze distant.

Every scene is a breathtaking view.

Sunrise at Mount Tai, sea of ​​clouds at Mount Huang, landscapes of Guilin, desert at Dunhuang —

He traveled through different dynasties and beautiful landscapes, like a lonely wind blowing across the land of China.

Chen Duling was completely absorbed in watching.

"So beautiful!"

Those landscapes, those times, that loneliness —

She suddenly felt a pang of heartache.

The scene switches to a modern setting.

Skyscrapers, bustling traffic, and flashing neon lights.

This section also introduces the male protagonist's current situation: he doesn't age and changes his identity every so often.

He's otherwise just like any other normal person, and he'll be leaving in three months.

My latest job is as an astronomy professor at Peking University.

He led a regular life and had a withdrawn personality; his students all called him Professor Jiang!

"He's putting on that aloof old man act again."

Chen Duling couldn't help but mutter something under her breath, watching with great interest.

Meanwhile, the female lead, Jing Yiren, also begins her appearance.

Wearing a red coat and sunglasses, followed by an assistant, he stepped out of the van, and flashes of light went off everywhere.

A few camera shots switch between award ceremonies, red carpets, magazine covers, and GG endorsements, quickly revealing the identity.

A national superstar, one of the most popular actresses in the entertainment industry right now, with explosive popularity.

Chen Duling's first impression was that the female lead was a bit pretentious.

She didn't have much of an impression of Jing Tian, ​​but she had seen some news about her, saying that she was a "resource-backed" actress with no acting skills. However, her acting in this movie was alright, probably because she was playing herself.

But seeing the female lead living in a mansion, wearing designer clothes, having a nanny car when she goes out, and having an assistant to serve her when she comes home, she suddenly felt a little envious of her life.

Being a celebrity seems like a lot of fun.

Her life is completely unrelated to hers, as she is now studying aircraft manufacturing engineering, drawing diagrams, conducting experiments, and calculating formulas every day.

"Never mind," she shook her head, "Everyone has their own way of living."

The male and female leads meet immediately after they appear on screen.

Jing Yiren bought an apartment and just moved in; it happens to be on the same floor as the male lead.

As a female celebrity, she is often followed. When she saw the male lead enter the same elevator as her, she assumed he was a fan following her.

Why didn't you press the floor number?

"I am Jing Yiren. There's nothing wrong with being a fan, but what you've done is going too far!"

Professor Jiang, played by Jiang Chen, looked at her with a puzzled expression, as if she were looking at a strange person.

Jing Tian thought he was pretending to be stupid, so he offered to sign his autograph and then let him leave.

Jiang Chen remained unmoved, which displeased Jing Tian, ​​who questioned him repeatedly.

He ignored her chatter and walked straight out of the elevator when it arrived.

Jing Tian chased after him in a fit of anger, only to realize that he was his neighbor. He was so embarrassed that he dug his toes into the ground.

She tried to ease the tension, "Don't you recognize me? Jing Yiren, haven't you read 'The Great Biography of Sun Tzu'?"

Why should I get to know you? I don't watch TV.

Jing Tian died again.

"Hahahahaha!"

Chen Duling was thoroughly amused.

The highlight of this segment isn't just the awkwardness, but also the chemistry between the extreme contrasts.

One is a top female star who lives in the spotlight, is admired by everyone, and has her own halo; the other is an immortal who is indifferent to fame and fortune, detached from worldly affairs, and completely indifferent to her identity.

The contrast between hot and cold, noisy and quiet, creates a humorous and subtle back-and-forth that is particularly captivating.

The plot continues, unfolding the daily life of this bickering couple.

The female lead on screen may seem glamorous and dazzling, but in private she is completely uninhibited, casual, and vibrant.

Alone in my luxury mansion late at night, shedding all my celebrity airs, I took a shower and then belted out a heart-wrenching song in front of the bathroom mirror.

This introduces the male protagonist's second superpower.

Exceptional hearing!

Extremely keen senses, a gift to ordinary people, are often a torment to him when he is alone.

Unable to bear the harassment any longer, the male protagonist finally knocks on the door to negotiate, his words sharp and blunt.

"Can you be quiet at this hour? Your singing is about the same level as your acting."

One sentence perfectly hit the female lead's long-standing pain point.

The pent-up grievances broke down instantly, and the popular actress's eyes welled up with tears as she choked back sobs and poured out all her grievances.

She may seem to be living a glamorous life, but in reality, she has been embroiled in controversy online for years.

Resource-backed actor, lacking acting skills, relying on connections, and a frequent guest in bad movies —

The barrage of malicious insults has never stopped.

"Everyone thinks I have bad acting skills, and I've been criticized since my debut."

"I dare not look at Weibo, dare not read the comments, dare not browse any social media."

"But I still have to walk the red carpet with a smile, give interviews with a smile, and say with a smile that I will work hard. Do you know how suffocating that feeling is?"

The camera pans to the phone screen, where harsh and malicious comments are real and jarring, reflecting the malice that haters have towards Jing Tian in real life, which Jiang Chen then brings to life in the drama.

Jing Tian's acting in this scene was exceptional; it was a completely genuine expression of emotion.

Chen Duling felt a pang of heartache seeing her tearful eyes and the way she was trying to hold back her sobs.

"These netizens are so malicious, it's really too much."

She then thought of Jiang Chen and couldn't help but mutter to herself.

Wasn't he previously the target of widespread online criticism?

He didn't seem sad at all; he was always jumping around in front of her.

The plot continues to unfold.

The top female celebrity's lack of formal education has long been criticized. To improve her reputation, she was specially admitted to Peking University, but has consistently missed classes.

Not at school.

After being exposed by the media, she sparked heated public debate and, under pressure, had no choice but to obediently return to school.

By sheer coincidence, her professor was none other than the male protagonist.

In class, the female protagonist tries to get close to the teacher, hoping that the teacher will make an exception and allow her to graduate smoothly.

But the male lead is completely unmoved by reason.

He possesses a photographic memory, reviewing thousands of words of paper in just a few seconds. He accurately pinpointed all the sources of plagiarism in her entire paper, publicly exposing her and awarding her a zero score.

Later, the female lead gets caught in a new media storm. The male lead remembers her confession from that day and feels a pang of sympathy, so he helps her a few times.

The female lead's charm was also subtly showcased during this time.

In one scene in the drama, she is drunk, her face is flushed, her eyes are languid, her clothes are slightly disheveled, her figure is bright and full, and there is a large expanse of white flesh on her chest, which is very charming.

Even though she was also a girl, Chen Duling couldn't help but be stunned for a moment and subconsciously swallowed.

"It must be technology, right? Actually, it's better for girls to be a little smaller, it's easier for them to run in sports."

"At this age, you'll never be able to develop abs."

"Waaaaah, I'm so envious!"

The plot of the first two episodes has finally come to an end. The male and female leads have explained themselves and had their initial interactions. The pacing is fast, the amount of information is plentiful, and there are plenty of conflicts, jokes, and exciting moments.

Chen Duling leaned against the headboard, hugging her knees, her eyes still fixed on the screen.

"That's it?"

She dragged the progress bar to confirm that there really were only two episodes.

Then, anger welled up inside me.

"That scoundrel deserves a terrible death!!!"

She sent a WeChat message to Jiang Chen.

"Why are there only two episodes?! Couldn't there be more???"

"No, there's going to be another episode with this!"

"What kind of ridiculous rules are these?!"

"The rules of the Jiang family."

Chen Duling was furious and was about to curse when another message came from the other end.

"However, I can tell you the plot."

What the heck?

spoiler?

Later, the female lead pressed the male lead about his identity, and the male lead said, "I am an alien."

"The female lead said, 'What's wrong with aliens? Can't aliens fall in love?'"

The male protagonist said, "It's not that we can't talk, it's that I'm leaving soon."

The female lead was shocked: "Wasn't your UFO broken? How do you get back?"

Chen Duling was so engrossed in watching that her finger hovered above the screen, and she forgot to reply.

The other side kept sending messages.

"The male protagonist said that the UFO was originally broken and had been under repair for hundreds of years without being fixed."

"But recently, I met a student from China Southern Airlines."

Chen Duling's heart skipped a beat.

"Call him Dudu."

Chen Duling: "————"

"She can not only build airplanes, but also repair flying saucers."

"I drove the UFO over to her yesterday and she fixed it in no time."

"And you say this piece of junk is much simpler than our China Southern Airlines fighter jets."

"So, I really have to go."

Chen Duling: "————"

You bastard!

You dare to mess with me!

"Jiang Chen, go to hell!!!"

"Call on."

"What are you doing?"

Chen Duling bit her lip, her fingers flying across the screen.

"Your older sister is going to punish you properly."

"In the name of the stars, I bestow upon you eternal defeat!"

"Tonight, I will personally end your ranked points!"

Jiang Chen:

..

This girl's old-fashioned anime/manga fanaticism has relapsed—

"Alright, go online. I'll show you what alien operations are like."

"You just wait!"

In an apartment in Shanghai, a female student who studies dance is sitting cross-legged on a yoga mat with a tablet in front of her.

She had just randomly clicked on it, wanting to find some background noise to stretch her legs.

When she saw Jiang Chen step out of the void and lift the woman up with one hand, she forgot to press her legs down and froze on the spot.

"My brother is so handsome!"

She studied classical dance and had seen too many so-called "ethereal" figures, but she had never seen anything like this.

It wasn't an act; it was a deep-seated alienation and loneliness.

Like a cloud, it drifts across the world without leaving a trace.

As for the female lead, she scoffed and rolled her eyes.

She crossed her legs again, but this time not to stretch them, but to sit more comfortably and continue watching.

In a residential area in Chongqing, a girl who had just finished her middle school entrance exam locked herself in her room, claiming she needed to "catch up on sleep."

Actually, she was secretly watching TV series.

She wore headphones and turned the screen brightness down to the lowest setting, afraid of being discovered by her parents.

When she saw Jing Yiren acting ridiculously in the elevator, she bit the corner of the blanket, trying to suppress her laughter so hard that her whole body trembled.

"Ha ha ha ha----"

Then, when she saw Jing Yiren crying about being attacked online, her laughter stopped.

She recalled how she had been ostracized by several girls in her class before her high school entrance exam.

Because of her sweet appearance and her status as a core member of the dance team, she was envied and subjected to long-term isolation and verbal humiliation.

I dare not look at the class group chat, dare not look at my WeChat Moments, dare not browse any social media.

The female lead on the screen cried as she said these words, and she, off-screen, silently shed tears.

She took off her headphones and buried her face in the pillow.

After a while, he looked up again and continued watching.

In Huizhou, Guangdong, a little girl who doesn't like to draw the curtains is sitting on the bay window, hugging her knees, with her notebook on her lap.

She likes to let the moonlight in, feeling that it creates a better atmosphere when watching plays.

Seeing Jiang Chen's 400-year fast-forward segment, the sunrise at Mount Tai, the sea of ​​clouds at Mount Huang, the landscape of Guilin, and the desert of Dunhuang—

She's a total looks-obsessed person; she just loves handsome guys!

Professor Jiang's irresistible charm immediately captivated her!

A figure in a black robe, standing on thin air, supporting someone with one hand.

Like a god descending from the sky.

"Oh My God----"

She covered her mouth, her eyes wide open.

"That's so cool!"

She dragged the progress bar back and watched it again.

One more time.

Then I took a screenshot and sent it to my girlfriends' group chat: "Look at this! Jiang Chen's new drama! He's insanely handsome!"

Her best friend replied instantly: "??? Don't you never watch dramas?"

"This drama is different!"

"What's different?"

"The male lead can fly!"

"It will stop time again!"

"He's lived for another four hundred years!"

"Are you possessed?"

"I'm hooked!"

She has believed since she was a child that aliens exist in this world.

Now, I've finally seen it on TV!

Jiang Chen, right?

In Yancheng, Jiangsu Province, a junior high school student who was preparing to drop out of school was lying on his bed at home, staring at the TV.

Her mother ran away, and her father raised her alone, living a very frugal life.

She found studying boring and planned to start working in a few days.

Tonight, she accidentally clicked on this show.

When she saw Jing Yiren say, "I dare not look at Weibo, I dare not look at the comments," she turned over and faced the wall.

There are award certificates she pasted on the wall when she was a child, which have already turned yellow.

She turned over again and reread the previous content.

Seeing Jiang Chen's 400-year fast-forward segment, the sunrise at Mount Tai, the sea of ​​clouds at Mount Huang, the landscape of Guilin, and the desert of Dunhuang—

She suddenly froze.

Do these places really exist?

She had never left Yancheng; the furthest she had ever been was the county seat.

To her, the outside world was just a blurry image on television.

But at this moment, those landscapes, those times, that loneliness—

It was like a needle piercing her heart.

When she saw Jiang Chen say, "We will meet again in four hundred years," her hand remained on the screen for a long time.

"Four hundred years —"

"I don't even know how I'm going to get through tomorrow, while others are thinking about four hundred years from now."

She continued watching, one episode, two episodes, and suddenly felt a sense of resonance.

They were all looked down upon, and they all gritted their teeth and persevered.

But the female lead has Professor Jiang.

What about her?

She only has herself.

She lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, and suddenly thought that maybe she could wait a little longer.

Wait until tomorrow, wait until the day after tomorrow, wait until this show finishes airing.

Then, go outside and see the wonders of this world.

In Wenzhou, Zhejiang, a girl who takes care of her two younger sisters and one younger brother is watching a TV show in the kitchen while her siblings are asleep.

She turned the volume down to the lowest setting and the screen brightness down, peeking into the bedroom every now and then to check on things.

When she saw the female lead drunkenly barging into Jiang Chen's house and pointing her finger at him, yelling, "Why don't you like me?", she laughed so hard her shoulders shook, and then quickly covered her mouth, afraid of waking her younger siblings.

"This female lead is so brave!"

She spoke softly, her eyes sparkling.

She had forgotten how long it had been since she had laughed like that.

I get up early every day to make breakfast, take my younger siblings to school, then go to school myself. In the evening, I come home to cook, do laundry, and help with homework.

She has no life of her own.

But at this moment, in this small kitchen, amidst the bickering between the female protagonist and Professor Jiang, she suddenly felt that she also had something of her own.

Even if it's just for two hours.

That night, countless people were too excited to sleep.

Transcending geographical boundaries, age, and identity, the emotions of all viewers were wonderfully connected through the screen.

There was only one thought in my mind.

My Love from the Star is so beautiful!!!
