Ex‑Wife Squandered My Billion‑Dollar Fortune: Crowned Dusk Ballad King

Chen Mo, once a dazzling king of the music scene, stepped back from showbiz at the height of his career, longing only for a peaceful life with his lover Liu Qingqing. Yet three years later, Liu Qingqing indulged in reckless spending. She blew through Chen Mo’s billion‑dollar savings, racked up a massive 300‑million‑dollar debt, and colluded with the tycoon Qin Xiao to force Chen Mo out of their home with nothing to his name. Overnight, Chen Mo lost everything. He lived in a shabby rental apartment, bombarded by endless debt‑collection threats. Trapped in despair, Chen Mo stepped onto the talent show stage *New Song King of Huaxia* to chase his musical dream once more. Starting from mall auditions, he stunned the whole internet with original hits such as *Dusk* and *Jiangnan*. Even amid underhanded sabotage from Qin’s Entertainment — biased scoring by judges and fraudulent voting by rivals — his solid vocal skill and sincere lyrics touched countless audiences. Breaking through barrier after barrier, he advanced all the way to the national grand finale. During his lowest point, Lin Ruoyao, a top‑tier female star whom Chen Mo had helped in the past, offered him a lifeline. She founded Morning Star Entertainment to fight alongside him. As they weathered hardships together, romantic feelings grew between them. Chen Mo launched late‑night livestreams, listening to ordinary people’s joys and sorrows and improvising songs to comfort countless netizens. He also made a heart‑warming promise about rice paddies and piano with Little Sun, a young girl suffering from leukemia, spreading tenderness and strength through music. Chaos erupted at the national grand finale. Liu Qingqing stormed onto the stage to slander Chen Mo publicly, attempting to ruin his future. Lin Ruoyao stepped forward without hesitation, arguing fiercely and exposing Liu Qingqing’s misdeeds.
