After five bigwigs in Beijing's elite circle fell into their trap, I fled.

Chapter 181 Chronicles of a Beautiful Woman 1
In an era of rampant online dramas, every platform has a huge number of shows lining up to be released every day.

Therefore, it's not unusual for a couple of new shows to suddenly appear.

Many people, with a nonchalant attitude, opened the relatively attractive title "The Richest Man's White Moonlight," and then read on, paying for it if they were interested and skipping it if they weren't.

Then, I casually clicked on "The Story of a Fallen City 1" which was listed next to it.

Just one second!
In just one second! The moment the stunningly beautiful girl appeared on screen, it immediately caused a gasp of surprise!
"Are short dramas really this popular now? This kind of looks, which would be invincible in the entertainment industry, actually appears in a small short drama?"

"Where did this fairy-like sister come from?! I have to top up my account to support her!"

"...A beautiful woman and a beggar? Why does this video look so similar to the last one?"

A few seconds later.

"Holy crap! This is plagiarism! It's not just similar, it's the same script, just different versions!"

"And the production company is this Kunpeng Micro Drama Club? Is this even possible? Filming two versions and releasing them simultaneously, what's the point? Are they crazy?!"

"Forget it, I thought it would be something new! Turns out it's the same plot and lines as the last one... But this female lead is worth watching!"

Amidst a chorus of curses and insults, the male protagonist, the richest man, slowly makes his entrance...

"Fuck!"

"Holy shit, shit!"

"The Crown Prince's double?"

"Damn it! Look at that every smile and frown, look at that face that even plastic surgery couldn't replicate! This isn't a stand-in, this is clearly the real deal!"

"Aaaaaah! This is insane! I need to get someone to come and check this out right away, it might get banned in a little while!"

……

The hurricane of the internet swept through the entire online drama industry in an instant!

The keyword "Prince Charming filming a short drama" instantly became a trending topic on major websites and Weibo! Furthermore, all of the top ten trending search terms were related to it.

The young master plays the richest man

The Crown Prince's First Short Drama

The Chronicles of a Beauty: Indeed, it concerns the affairs of a crown prince who is so handsome he could topple kingdoms!

……

Nie Hongnian sat leisurely in his office, enjoying his evening tea time without the troubles caused by the young master.

The assistant walked in with a grave expression: "Mr. Nie, something terrible has happened!"

Nie Hongnian was taken aback: "Is the Crown Prince up to something again?"

“You could say that.” The assistant handed him the trending topics page on his phone. “A short drama was released today, and the main character is the Crown Prince.”

"..." Nie Hongnian's expression turned slightly cold. "Is it some kind of messy stand-in?"

"Take a look for yourself." The assistant swiped the phone to the short video page. "This is the video that you personally instructed us to give a lot of views to."

Nie Hongnian took the phone.

The scene playing happened to be the richest man leisurely coming out to catch his wife cheating...

"Holy crap!" Nie Hongnian jumped up!

He picked up the phone and dialed repeatedly, but the other end kept showing "out of service area".

"Should we...ban it?" The assistant asked, a little flustered.

Nie Hongnian recalled the man's instructions before he left: "He must have tacitly approved it. He told me to watch the video first. Damn it, this bastard is completely inhuman!"

On this ordinary day of October 10th, the trend of short dramas took a turn for the worse.

The first season of "The Story of a Fallen City" exploded across all websites in less than ten minutes after its release! Hundreds of millions of people flocked to it, fearing that the video would be taken down if they waited any longer!
Nie Hongnian took out his phone, reopened the video, and joined the many viewers in his cursing.

The beginning doesn't feel like a short drama; it's more like... a private selfie.

The clock ticked away. Accompanied by Yan Yu's heavenly voice:
"In the encounters of life, there are those who become old friends at first sight, and those who remain friends even when their hair turns white. With this film, I record the ups and downs of our family of six."

The ticking of the clock and the heavenly voice faded away simultaneously.

Then, the bustling scene of the Crown Prince's birthday banquet flashed by.

In the dimly lit, ambiguous side room, an extremely ugly boy was being wantonly teased by a stunningly beautiful girl, slightly tipsy. The cool, jade-like steps offered the sight of the scarred boy, whose body was as white as jade, as he allowed the girl's frivolous caresses…

The arrogant and beautiful tycoon (played by Feng Li) emerged from around the corner, his peach blossom eyes swirling with turbulent emotions as he gazed at the scene before him.

"Madam, you..."

The girl stood up: "Let me explain!"

The richest man raised a slight brow with his captivating eyes: "I won't listen."

He paused, his voice languid and roguish, lingering and poignant, "I won't listen! I won't listen!"

After saying this, the richest man walked away gracefully and decisively.

The female lead followed behind him, constantly tugging at his sleeve. Just as he was about to turn the corner and leave, she gritted her teeth and pinned him against the wall!
"My relationship with him was just a fling."

The richest man's voice was sexy and playful: "I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear it."

[OMG! The young master's voice is amazing! It could make someone pregnant!]

I used to think "I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen" was disgusting! But! But when our young master says it so charmingly, what can I do? I love it!

[I don't want to hear it! Waaah, this is too much! The young master is being so spoiled and arrogant, I can't take it anymore!]

[Under the high-definition lens, the young master's face, physique, and aura are so captivating, they practically stripped him bare! How dare you betray me, female lead? Are you blind?]

……

In the video, the girl forcefully dragged the billionaire to the adjacent lounge and pounced on the handsome man! Then—the camera panned to the swaying curtains, and the audience could only hear the sound of fabric being torn, and the girl's seemingly panting voice: "Now will you listen?"

The camera finally decided to move back.

The disheveled tycoon slowly dressed, glanced at the girl, his peach blossom eyes seemed to sparkle with starlight, and a slight smile played on his lips: "I won't listen."

Then, backing away, he disappeared from the girl's sight with a satisfied look on his face...

[Holy crap! This is clearly the same script as "The Richest Man's White Moonlight"! The male lead in "The White Moonlight" stormed off, but this Crown Prince... how come he's so charming!]

[That unsatisfied look on his face, like he wants to seduce the female lead and sleep with her again... Good heavens, this isn't a story of lovers turning against each other; the prince's seductive expression is impossible to hide!]

[The young master's "I won't listen" is more adorable than my cat's pleading! How can there be such an exasperating man in the world?!]

……

The camera turned.

The streets were deserted.

The girl looked at the beggar who was huddled in the street corner, feeling ashamed: "Tell me, do you want a check or cash? I can give you anything except love."

The beggar, his voice hoarse, stretched out his filthy hand: "I dare not ask for your love, please give me fifty dollars in cash."

The girl raised an eyebrow: "I'm the richest man's favorite woman, and every single thing I own costs over a hundred yuan. You only want fifty?"

The beggar smiled bitterly, feeling ashamed: "I've been ugly since I was a child, my life is as insignificant as an ant's, I only deserve fifty dollars."

The girl was slightly moved: "You are neither greedy nor competitive; you have such a noble soul! Man, I declare that you have successfully caught my attention!"

The girl generously placed a pink bill in the beggar's hand, then arrogantly declared, "And what I can give you is far more than you can imagine!"

The ugly beggar trembled, and tears of emotion slowly streamed down his face, tracing the scars across his cheeks: "One hundred dollars! It's actually one hundred dollars! In my lifetime, I've never had a hundred dollars!"

The girl paused for a moment, then said, "Don't cry, it's just a hundred yuan!"

She hesitated for two seconds, then generously pulled out another twenty yuan: "Add another twenty! If you come with me, you'll get another one hundred and thirty yuan, one hundred and forty yuan... Be my man, and you'll be one step away from becoming rich!"
