💜 [November Launch]
Xie Sizhuo is a male star who has spent sixteen years making his way through the entertainment industry. With his face, he can conquer the world, and his fame resounds across the land.
One night, he wakes from a dream to find that time and space have shifted. He has transmigrated to a parallel world, where all his past honors, status, and connections have vanished into thin air.
Before the rice in the pot could cook, all the splendor had faded. In the blink of an eye, this once top-tier star has fallen so far that nobody even knows who he is.
Xie Sizhuo: ...When is the director going to call cut?
The night of his dream of a distant southern land, he was twenty-six, crowned Golden Screen Best Actor for his starring role in the film He Came from an Unknown Time and Space. At the banquet, glasses clinked as the whole industry gathered to congratulate him, and the trending searches had a page all to themselves.
Before he could even grasp his glory, Xie Sizhuo drank champagne spiked by a rival. His body grew hot and restless, his mind hazy, and he stumbled away to ride the Ferris wheel at an amusement park.
In the film, when the Ferris wheel reaches its peak, time and space shift, and the male lead sees the person he most wants to meet in this life.
And he wanted to see again the person who had been gone for ten years, whom he had searched for over ten years and longed for over ten years.
But no miracle came. Xie Sizhuo took a cab back to his luxury apartment in an upscale neighborhood. The facial recognition system rejected him three times before the door opened.
A man leaned against the doorframe in a loose, half-open black silk robe. Broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted, his toned chest and abs were just visible.
He was extremely tall, and his imposing gaze lowered over Xie Sizhuo as he narrowed his eyes slightly. “...Who are you?”
Xie Sizhuo smiled. Was there really anyone on Earth who didn't know him?
He didn't dwell on why there was a strange man in his home, and politely asked, “Did the village forget to run an internet cable to your house? Do you know how to use a smartphone?”
The man's deep eyes scanned the tall, slender drunk from head to toe, finally settling on his sharp, handsome face. He automatically classified him as one of those people who would rack their brains to get into his bed.
But this one had played right into his tastes. “Satisfy me tonight, and someone will bring you a script tomorrow.”
Xie Sizhuo, slightly tipsy: “I'm very, ”
Before he could finish, the man hooked an arm around his waist, pulled him into the room, pinned him against the wall, and leaned in to kiss him.
Blame the alcohol. Xie Sizhuo looked up and saw a handsome, sharply defined face, the features he had missed for thousands of days and nights. He willingly looped his arms around the man's neck, their lips and tongues meeting as their hot breaths entwined.
His mind was blurred, but his sensations were clear. The next morning, he woke in a strange room, in a large bed, and his entire worldview was overturned.
He was certain this was his own apartment in his own residential complex, but the decor, furnishings, and layout had all bizarrely changed.
Under the man's amused gaze, Xie Sizhuo pulled out his phone and called his agent. The number was no longer in service.
He called his assistant. The number was no longer in service.
He called a friend. The number was no longer in service.
He called a paparazzo, and this time someone answered.
The number he had saved as Balding Mediterranean Man played a sweet female voice: “Hello, this is the Mental Health Disease Control and Treatment Center. We're happy to assist you.”
Xie Sizhuo hung up, very unhappy, opened a search engine, typed in his own name, hit enter, and showed it to the man.

Xie Sizhuo: ...!!!
The first time Li Chenwang unwrapped a gift delivered to his door, he felt like keeping it around for fun.
The canary wasn't interested. He kicked over Li Chenwang's Italian handmade tea table, smashed two black-gold glazed tea bowls, then hurriedly bolted out the door.
The next time Li Chenwang saw him was at auditions for a low-budget, long-form drama. The canary, once so dazzling and refined, was now disheveled, huddled in a corner with a boxed meal.
Li Chenwang remembered that on the morning after their one-night stand, the man had been going on about being a top-tier star, an award-winning actor, and a household name.
If I help him get what he wants, will he be willing to obediently enter my cage?
