The Arranged-Marriage Heartthrob

Blurb One:

Yu Xian is a cool, beautiful young man. On his first day at a new school, he publicly fights back against his bullies by releasing a snake.

Fan Lou is unruly, handsome, comes from a good family, and is popular. He's never been able to stand the younger brother his stepmother brought with her.

One day, Fan Lou corners him again. The hand holding his cigarette brushes Yu Xian's cheek, seemingly by accident. "Do you know why your mom asked you to come here?"

"An arranged marriage and a marriage to ward off bad luck. How incredibly backward."

Seeing the disbelief on Yu Xian's face, Fan Lou moves closer and blows smoke in his face. "Call me big brother, and I'll help you. How about it?"

As expected, Fan Lou gets slapped.

The two of them have been at odds from the start. Everyone knows they hate each other.

However, students at Jiasheng High have noticed something strange lately. Their two most popular guys, who can't stand each other, seem to have a special relationship. For example, they arrive at and leave the classroom together, and Fan Lou even brings Yu Xian a lunchbox he made himself!?

Someone nervously asks, "Lou-ge, are you dating Yu Xian?"

"Dating my ass..." Fan Lou doesn't finish his sentence. He turns and sees that the pretty little brother he took his eyes off for a moment is being pestered by someone trying to give him a love letter. He vaults straight through the window. "Hey, what class are you in? What's your name? You're dating at school? I'm reporting you to the dean!"

Blurb Two:

Yu Xian's mother makes a connection with a powerful family in the capital, and brings him there to attend high school. He meets Fan Lou, his half-brother, and the two are constantly at each other's throats.

Their classmates watch the two big names in school fight each other, and rumors spread across campus.

But as the rumors get passed around, "the school bully is fighting the school beauty again" gradually turns into "the school bully cornered a sweet little omega and kissed him against the wall." Is that omega the school beauty?!

Before they can even process the idea that their two campus idols might be falling for each other, Yu Xian suddenly invites the whole class to his engagement party with his arranged fiancé.

The fiancé isn't Fan Lou.

Outwardly cool, but emotionally detached and wooden bottom & initially arrogant, flashy, and domineering troublemaker top who later becomes a devoted, domestic husband
