[Two male leads + older love interest + sweet and angsty romance + domineering CEO + showbiz + happy ending]
Xia Huaizhou is an excavator operator at a construction site who dreams of becoming an actor. He's passionate and sincere, resilient and determined.
Huo Xingchuan is the young CEO of Linghai Group. Rational and coolheaded, he has an iron grip on things and is used to being in control.
Neither of them could have imagined that a torrential downpour would entangle two people from such different worlds.
It all began when Xia Huaizhou had a flash of inspiration and raised his excavator bucket to shield Huo Xingchuan from the rain. Huo Xingchuan was astonished, then captivated by Xia Huaizhou's refined, handsome looks.
Later, Huo Xingchuan misread his own feelings and, after an impulsive kiss, proposed a “deal.” Shocked and furious, Xia Huaizhou staggered away.
Then they ran into each other at a private club. Huo Xingchuan lost control and cornered Xia Huaizhou in a room, reddening his collarbone as his eyes brimmed with tears. His jaw clenched so hard his back teeth nearly cracked. “If you won't say yes to me, who are you planning to sell yourself to tonight?”
Later still, on a hit variety show, Xia Huaizhou appears in an elegant women's outfit, expertly operating an excavator.
The viewers are beside themselves with laughter: “I'm dying. Which CEO's wife drives an excavator?”
Huo Xingchuan's verified account weighs in: “Mine.”
This article actually originated from a short story in a book, that is, the story of an excavator driver lifting his shovel to protect another stranger from the rain. In the heavy rain, a little kindness makes people feel warm. Following this little story, I began to spread my thoughts, and gradually there were two people and many scenes in my mind. I wanted to tell a story between the boss and the excavator driver. But my level is average and my ability is limited. At present, I may not tell it very well, but it doesn't matter. This is my story and I love it. Therefore, I just want to give myself a super good-looking, five-star review, because every word I write down is a mark of my victory! Xiaojing, keep up the good work~
The first few chapters were a bit awkward, but after a dozen or so chapters I felt much better and it was okay and readable.
