After My Death, I Bind a Crush System

Shen Qingling, a top-tier A-list actor beloved by audiences worldwide, dies unexpectedly in an accident and wakes up bound to a romance strategy system. He transmigrates into a popular rich-family novel, taking over the body of the doomed cannon-fodder legitimate young master. In the original storyline, this boy will be viciously framed, dragged into scandal, ruined completely in public, and eventually killed by his treacherous adopted brother. To rewrite his predetermined tragic fate and stay alive, Shen Qingling must earn heart-fluttering points from different female characters. His new life begins amid a deadly trap. He wakes right at the scene of an alleged kidnapping of a school beauty, a fabricated charge that will destroy him instantly. Drawing on his decades of polished acting skills and timely prompts from the system, he stays calm, twists the situation cleverly, and defuses the crisis before things spiral out of control. During this chaotic incident, he earns his first batch of heart-fluttering points from Song Zhining, the sharp and privileged heiress of the powerful Song family. Shen Qingling quickly recognizes this world; he is familiar with every twist of the original script. The original host had no way to fight back against manipulation, and the adopted son Gu Yijin has already laid out layered schemes to seize the family fortune and get rid of him. To survive and gain strength, Shen Qingling moves cautiously between Song Zhining, gentle Ruan Mingyi and other important female characters. Every trace of trust and fondness he gains turns into heartbeat points, which he spends to upgrade his physical and mental stats. He wages a quiet, risky battle against the calculating Gu Yijin. Keeping his system a closely guarded secret, he handles delicate interactions with different women, accumulates heartbeat points steadily, breaks the doomed fate of the cannon fodder, and marches toward an extraordinary new peak of life.
