Explosive! The Black and Red Top Star Gained a Sister

Lu Fei is a twenty-four-year-old top-tier entertainment superstar who recently suffered a severe professional setback. After starring in the highly anticipated adaptation of the novel Fallen Immortal, he faced intense backlash from original fans who criticized script changes that favored the female lead. The controversy resulted in widespread online harassment, branding him with the derogatory nickname Lu Trash. Deeply affected by the criticism and struggling with undiagnosed bipolar disorder, Lu Fei decided to quit acting entirely, refusing to accept any new roles despite his manager Sang Wei’s desperate attempts to convince him otherwise. His mental state deteriorated rapidly, leading to insomnia, emotional instability, and a growing sense of worthlessness that isolated him from his colleagues and family.

The narrative shifts when a three-year-old girl named Lu Youyou unexpectedly appears backstage at Lu Fei’s concert. Dressed in a nightgown and clutching a shark plushie, she claims to be his younger sister and insists that their father is Lu Yu, the CEO of the Lu Group, and their mother is the famous actress Shi Ning. Lu Fei initially dismisses her as a scammer or an illegitimate child fathered by his neglectful father. However, Youyou recites private phone numbers and mentions her eldest brother, Lu Yan, who had recently co-founded a tech company. Intrigued and unable to immediately discard her, Lu Fei allows his assistant A Jiu to temporarily care for the child while he attempts to verify her claims.

Youyou’s backstory reveals that she is a time traveler from six years in the future. In her original timeline, her family was close-knit, but her father had fallen into a coma after a sudden illness, and her second brother, Lu Fei, had become a notorious scumbag in the entertainment industry. Consumed by depression and bipolar disorder, Lu Fei eventually took his own life after being exposed for infidelity and career failures. Youyou traveled back in time to prevent this tragic future and protect her brother. During her stay with Lu Fei, she witnesses his volatile mood swings and the depth of his insecurity, realizing that her presence is crucial to altering his fate.

As the typhoon season traps Youyou in Lu Fei’s apartment, the siblings begin to interact more frequently. Lu Fei remains cold and distant, viewing her as a burden and a reminder of his father’s perceived infidelity. Meanwhile, A Jiu grows fond of Youyou, providing her with care and attention that Lu Fei refuses to give. The situation changes when Lu Yan, the eldest brother, arrives to take custody of the child. Lu Yan, a brilliant but financially strained twenty-year-old graduate student, is initially skeptical of Youyou’s time-travel claims. However, after experiencing vivid dreams that mirror her story and examining her advanced smartwatch, he begins to believe her.

Youyou moves in with Lu Yan, who lives in a modest apartment near Tsinghua University. Despite his poverty, Lu Yan is dedicated to proving her identity and helping her adjust. He attempts to repair her smartwatch, which contains holographic family photos that could serve as proof of her origin. The watch’s unique charging cradle, a technology from the future, becomes a focal point for Lu Yan’s research, reigniting his passion for innovation. Simultaneously, Lu Fei’s mental health continues to decline, and he faces increasing pressure from his agency and the public. The story sets the stage for a convergence of family reunification, technological breakthrough, and the redemption of Lu Fei’s career and life, driven by Youyou’s determination to save her brother from his dark future.
