Main couple: Shi Qi'an (feisty, wary bottom) × Xie Qijing (scheming, predatory top) [Happy Ending]
Side couple: Wang Zhitang (aloof, distant older sister) × Wang Shutong (obsessive, loyal puppy-like younger brother)
The author absolutely won't write a tragic ending, because it would break her heart to read one.
For some pocket money, Shi Qi'an signs an absurd “pretend boyfriend” contract with his nemesis, Xie Qijing. The terms: a monthly salary of ten thousand, and no falling in love. Xie Qijing is so dedicated you'd think he was an award-winning actor. He picks Shi Qi'an up after school, makes him soup and brings him medicine, and even wants to pluck the stars he so much as looks at. Until one night, Xie Qijing corners him against the wall and says in a dangerous voice, “Now the whole school thinks we're dating.” Shi Qi'an panics. “Wait, didn't we agree...” Xie Qijing kisses him, silencing all the words left unsaid. “An'an, I never do kissing scenes for show.”
