President Lu, Don't Lose It Yet. Turns Out You're the Clown

Sweet romance + no more stand-in + winning her back + mutual secret crush

Sharp-tongued but soft-hearted CEO (does more than he says) × clear-headed young star (speaks up and asks questions)

Two years ago, young star Shen Wanxing knelt outside his villa, eyes red, begging him to take her in. On a whim, he kept her in his riverside penthouse, like a canary to dispel his loneliness.

Everyone outside condemned Shen Wanxing for shamelessly clinging to President Lu, groveling for his attention.

Only Shen Wanxing knew that she had never approached him because she loved him. She was simply captivated by the face that looked exactly like the beloved boy from her youth. She took it for granted that she could use him as a stand-in, and took it for granted that she could enjoy the resources and protection he gave her.

Everyone thought that Shen Wanxing, the one who had pursued him so eagerly, would be the first to fall in love.

No one saw the obsessive devotion President Lu had hidden beneath his cold exterior for two years.

His words were always cutting and mocking, yet whenever he touched her, he instinctively softened his grip. He claimed not to care that the Shen family exploited her, then turned around and crushed every member of the Shen family who came to extort her. Tormented day and night by his overwhelming possessiveness, he forced himself to endure it for two years, quietly playing out this absurd stand-in romance with her.

Only then did she suddenly stumble upon the shocking truth:

Lu Zhiheng was the beloved boy from her youth, the one she had longed for but could never have.

From beginning to end, the one who was too deeply lost in the role, suffering alone and mistaking his own feelings for requited love, was him alone.
