[Male-male romance × secret crush × 1v1 × mutual chastity]
Xu Song, once a wildly popular award-winning actor, became the darling of the public at a young age thanks to his exceptional looks and superb acting. But at the height of his fame, an unfounded exposé suddenly shattered his public image. Overnight, the once-glorious top-tier star fell from grace, becoming an “over-the-hill actor” whom everyone loved to berate.
Qi Yuan, meanwhile, is a newly risen star at the height of his fame. Never mind his talent and achievements: his face alone has earned him enough admirers to circle Jiangcheng dozens of times. But he has no interest in anyone, because his heart belongs to a beloved one he can never have.
One is a top-tier star, the other an over-the-hill actor. When news suddenly breaks that these two people, who had never crossed paths, are going to work together, the clueless audience members in the front row pull up their little stools to watch the drama unfold.
What no one notices is that in a dim, deserted corner beneath the hazy night sky, someone has Xu Song pinned against the wall, kissing him passionately.
“The world keeps saying we don’t get along, Xu Song. This time, you came to me all on your own!” Qi Yuan’s low, bewitching voice murmurs beside his ear as his broad hand wraps around Xu Song’s slender waist.
Xu Song says nothing: “…”
His gaze is hazy and glistening, his ears flushed red and his face shy. He is completely lost in this man’s tenderness...
Proud, rebellious Qi Yuan as the pursuer vs. gentle, refined Xu Song as the pursued
