Beautiful, eccentric actress × rising business tycoon
Jiang Canran became someone's sugar baby.
Only, things didn't go quite as expected.
The other party was Shen Changhe, a rising business tycoon. They first met at a cocktail party.
Jiang Canran had thought it would be the usual kind of party.
But when she got back to the film set that night, she received a message.
She thought it was a scam text.
But then...
[SCH: May I ask to become your sugar daddy?]
[So sleepy: ? Is it Crazy Thursday today? Send me 50 and I'll see what you've got.]
Alipay: You received 1,000,000 yuan.
[SCH: Fifty thousand would make it seem like I don't respect you, so I sent one million. Am I qualified to ask to become your sugar daddy now?]
[So sleepy: ??? You're serious, bro...?]
So, as a sugar baby for the first time, Jiang Canran stood awkwardly by the door, watching Shen Changhe get ready to leave for work.
She asked nervously, “When are you planning to come back?”
Shen Changhe's eyes lit up. “Are you keeping tabs on me?”
Jiang Canran froze, then hesitantly asked, “I really shouldn't...”
Before she could finish, Shen Changhe chuckled. “Having someone keep tabs on me feels amazing...”
Then Shen Changhe began to regret it. “It's a shame I can only give you a little money. There's nothing else I can do to repay you.”
After thinking it over, Shen Changhe blushed and took out a card, handing it to Jiang Canran. “Spend it all today. Think of it as my way of thanking you.”
Jiang Canran: Money isn't stinky. Not stinky at all...
Jiang Canran: ...It's my first time being a sugar baby. I have no idea what I'm doing!
Jiang Canran: But... well, what's done is done. I'll just do whatever my sugar daddy says...
Afterward, Jiang Canran would often think that Shen Changhe was an exceptionally wonderful person.
They would surely stay together until they had no teeth left and couldn't speak clearly anymore.
Thinking this, Jiang Canran smiled and threw herself into Shen Changhe's arms. Shen Changhe caught her securely.
Reading guide:
1. Short romance, 1v1, happy ending, both leads' first love.
2. The heroine is a funny girl (but Ranran is seriously adorable =_=).
3. The entertainment-industry parts are mostly imagined. No real-life inspirations❗
A sweet little story that seems to be about keeping a sugar baby, but ends up being a sugary romance~

(I was discussing plot ideas with Qiu, and we came up with more than ten tragic-ending ideas. After Qiu talked me around, I came up with this one, but Qiu is going to write those tragic endings... =v=
After finishing Little Gardenia, I'll take a break for a while before starting this one~
