Dual male leads + entertainment industry + rivals + sugar daddy arrangement + mutual pining + bittersweet romance + getting back together
A prickly, stubborn-but-soft-hearted resource darling bottom + a popular, talented actor with a scheming, devoted heart as the top
Ji Ran woke up to find himself in bed with Gu Yanzhou, his rival from the same production.
He was disgusted, but when he realized he was the one who’d taken advantage of Gu Yanzhou, he felt much better.
In the entertainment industry, Gu Yanzhou always had the upper hand. At last, Ji Ran had gotten the better of him for once.
To humiliate Gu Yanzhou, he left two hundred yuan and swaggered off. He thought that was the end of it, but Gu Yanzhou tracked him down and said it wasn’t enough, demanding half a million right off the bat.
Ji Ran was stunned. When had Gu Yanzhou gotten so shameless?
What had he been through during the seven years they were apart?
To keep him quiet, Ji Ran had no choice but to agree.
After paying him 300,000, Ji Ran regretted it. He’d been too drunk that night to remember what happened, so 500,000 for one night was a terrible deal.
He told Gu Yanzhou that if he wanted the remaining 200,000, he’d have to sleep with him one more time. To Ji Ran’s surprise, Gu Yanzhou agreed.
But why was Ji Ran the one lying down?
He was horrified to realize that he’d been the one taken advantage of that night.
Was anyone more pathetic than him: taken advantage of by his rival and then made to pay tens of thousands on top of that?
The paparazzi revealed that Gu Yanzhou had met up privately with his former on-screen partner, and that they seemed very close.
Some people speculated that Gu Yanzhou had reached out to his former partner because his recent investment had gone south, and that he was probably asking his old flame for help.
To get back at Gu Yanzhou, Ji Ran offered to keep him as his sugar baby.
Gu Yanzhou readily accepted and seemed eager to go along with it.
Ji Ran began to suspect he’d been set up.
