[Reunion after a long separation / bittersweet / the powerful one bends first]
Gorgeous, ambitious schemer x devoted, aloof beauty
"This is Chen Yi, the director of our promotional video. Director Chen, do you know each other?"
After ten years apart, Chen Yi looked at the man before her in his crisp suit. Her gaze collided unexpectedly with his deep, distant eyes, and the hand hidden behind her back trembled faintly.
Who at Linquan Number One High School didn't know Liang Jingke? And besides, they'd once been desk mates.
Chen Yi smoothly exchanged pleasantries, then, for some reason, added, "But Liang, the campus heartthrob, was famous from the moment he started school. I doubt he'd remember someone like me, a nobody."
His narrow eyes narrowed behind his glasses, and he sneered. "I really don't remember much. Your name is... Chen Yi?"

At a mutual friend's wedding, Chen Yi arrived arm in arm with another man, the two of them looking completely at ease together.
Across the crowd, their eyes met. Chen Yi's legs weakened beneath her long dress, and she hurriedly looked away.
Liang Jingke gave a self-mocking smile and drained his glass.
The night before, at the party, no one knew that the two of them had been breathing each other in the darkness by the lake.
"Tell me..." Liang Jingke lifted her chin. "If your boyfriend saw us kissing here, do you think he'd want to kill you?"
Chen Yi chuckled. Her gaze rose slowly to meet his dark eyes, and she egged him on: "Why don't you find out?"

Rich young lady who only follows obscure idols x scheming, brooding top-tier star
Coercive romance / chasing the wife to the crematorium
[Blurb]
Ni Zhenxin is lazy and idle, with a family that literally has money in the ground.
Her greatest hobby in life is following obscure little idols. Spend a little money, and she gets the handsomest one to dote on her, blinking starry eyes as he says, "You're so wonderful, sis." It could hardly be better.
That is, until she meets Shi Xu.
Shi Xu is cold and taciturn. He doesn't even blink when faced with the luxury goods Ni Zhenxin gives him. After accidentally brushing against her, he wipes his hand three times right in front of her, as though she were something filthy and untouchable.
But his looks are exactly her type. In tight pants, his legs seem longer than life itself. He's the spitting image of a member of a third-generation top-tier boy band.
Ni Zhenxin grits her teeth and follows Shi Xu for three years, watching him go from an obscure idol drowning in debt to a top-tier star.
She thinks it's time to bow out now that her mission is accomplished.
Out of Shi Xu's sight, she carries on following another obscure idol and thrives in the fan community.
Until one day, while following an obscure idol at the airport, she takes off her mask and looks up to meet a pair of dark eyes.
Ni Zhenxin feels as if she's fallen into an icy abyss. She doesn't even have time to put her mask back on before she turns and runs.
That night, she wakes from a nightmare with a silk blindfold over her eyes and cold iron chains binding her hands and feet.
The mattress sinks beside her, and a familiar presence sweeps over her. A rough thumb brushes lightly over her fragile ankle, which looks as if it could snap with a touch. Hot lips press against her ear, the voice hoarse.
"You call him big brother. What does that make me?"
Not based on real people.
Theme: Love means shaping each other
Double update! Too generous 😳
So the male protagonist is here specifically to help the female protagonist out 😏
