Shen Chuchu almost spat out blood when she saw that her acting skill was only at 19 points when the actual full score was 100. Didn’t that mean her pitiful acting skills have become even more pitiful? How was she supposed to mingle in the entertainment industry with a score like this? She didn’t look bad by any means but how would she manage to get her name out there when she had neither the background nor the skills? The entertainment industry had no shortage of good-looking individuals!    

Also, how would she increase the fate value anyways? She felt that the introduction was unclear on this part.

She remembered that the system would previously pop up whenever she thought of a question in her head. She reasoned that it must be an extremely intelligent system so she decided to ask it a question in her mind. However, the system gave no response at all. Perhaps the question she asked was too complicated? She thus thought of an easy question such as who gave her this system. The system remained unresponsive. After a few more questions, she understood that it would not answer her.

She felt disappointed by this revelation but still found the system very interesting and wanted to continue exploring it. But after the car accident, the hospital visit and then this system all in one day, she felt that her mind was messed up as it is. As she thought about how to go about helping people with marital issues, she slowly drifted off to sleep.

The sun had long since risen by the time she woke up the next day.

Shen Chuchu stared at the ceiling and thought, did she have to change her profession and open a matchmaker agency now? If she didn’t complete the tasks given to her, her acting skills would continue to plummet. At this rate, she wouldn’t be able to be an actress anymore. But she couldn’t just ask people on the street if they have any marital problems. What could she do?

Before Shen Chuchu had time to open the “Red Thread of Fate” tab, she heard the nurse speak to her, “Alright, I’ve taken the needle out. Please use your fingers to apply pressure to the area.”

When Shen Chuchu saw the nurse start to tidy up, she couldn’t help but inquire about what she saw on the virtual display page, “Excuse me, but are you getting married soon?” Today was January the 7th, while the day after tomorrow was January the 9th. If what she saw was true then the nurse would be getting married the day after tomorrow.

Or perhaps what she saw was just an illusion?

The nurse smiled with a look of happiness and shyly replied. “Yes, my boyfriend and I are going to get our marriage certificate the day after tomorrow.”

The nurse’s words stunned Shen Chuchu. Perhaps what she saw was not just in her head but was actually real? While the nurse lowered her head to tidy up, Shen Chuchu touched the small pink heart again. It was exactly the same as before.

“How did you know that I was about to get married?” The nurse inquired.

Although Shen Chuchu was still in shock, she opened her mouth and lied: “I overheard it from another nurse.”

Their marriage was no longer a secret at the nurse station, the nurse reasoned to herself. She nodded her head and replied. “Ah, is that so.”

Shen Chuchu watched the nurse stand up and then walked past the virtual display screen without any hesitation. The nurse still seemed completely unaware of the virtual display screen despite the fact that it was just right in front of her eyes.

Shen Chuchu held back her shock and tried to keep as calm as possible: “I wish you happiness.”

The nurse smiled, said thanks then turned and left.

Hello! Sky here 🙂

I am happy to announce a new novel that I’ve helped to translate called I Am A Matchmaker On Taobao

At seven o’clock at night, Shen Chuchu, whose stomach was rumbling with hunger, was about to leave her house for dinner.

As an 18th tier actor, Shen Chuchu felt that she had really diminished the word “actor”. They say that acting is the fastest career in making money, but she felt that it was the fastest career in spending money instead.

After debuting for three months, she had shot two advertisements in total and only earned thirteen thousand yuan* of hard-earned salary. Four thousand of that was spent on cosmetics, another six thousand on rent, while the remaining three thousand was spent on clothes and food.

*TL-note: Yuan is widely used to refer to the Chinese currency “renminbi”. One dollar is about six to seven yuan. Eighteen thousand yuan is equivalent to just under two thousand USD.

She looked down at her shrivelled wallet and counted her money again. A total of twenty-three yuan! It was her lucky number! This was great, she could go out and eat some spicy hotpot. As for tomorrow……she would figure it out then!

She took her wallet and walked out of the apartment.

After walking down two streets, she could finally see the shadow of the spicy hotpot shop. Currently, Shen Chuchu was hungry to the point of dizziness. As she looked across the street, there were still three seconds remaining until the green light. She glanced left and right to check for cars, and started to hurry across.

She could practically see the spicy hotpot waving at her. But just as Shen Chuchu was about to reach the shop, a ray of dazzling light followed by an ear-piercing sound of brakes causing her to suddenly freeze on the spot. She never clearly saw who the driver was, but she did feel a ray of red light shine over her. The next second, she let out an “Ah!” and lost consciousness…
