Dark, deceptively gentle schemer male lead X mild-mannered, honest female lead
Powerful man bows his head, then chases his wife through a field of flames
1.
When Jiang Xuechi first met Liu Yu at Beixi Theater Academy, he was a warm, smiling senior under the spotlights, an idol whom countless freshmen looked up to.
She, too, once thought he was the gentlest person in the world.
Until the sensitive young woman happened to glimpse the coldness and calculation that flashed in his eyes beneath his smile, along with a hint of amusement that appeared only when he looked at her.
She had no idea what she had done to offend him. She only wanted to run.
2.
Five years later, in a corner of a film set, she was a bit-part actress waiting to audition, while he was the star everyone fawned over.
He passed by with an indifferent glance, as if he had forgotten the junior from his club.
Jiang Xuechi breathed a sigh of relief. She only wanted to keep her distance from him anyway.
She lowered her head whenever his gaze swept her way, wanting to be no more than an invisible speck of dust in his world.
But she didn't know that Liu Yu had quietly noticed every careful attempt she made to avoid him.
People said Liu Yu was warm and considerate, an exceptionally easygoing award-winning actor in the industry.
Only Jiang Xuechi knew what kind of calculated trap lay beneath his gentlemanly facade.

“Why are you avoiding me?”
His thumb brushed along her jaw. His voice was still gentle. “Xiaoxue, I'm curious. What exactly did I do to make you so afraid?”
Jiang Xuechi looked up at him. In the dim light, that hint of amusement returned to his eyes, clearer and more blatant than it had been five years ago.
“I didn't...”
His fingers lightly caught a strand of her long hair and wound it around them. “But you know, when you act like this, it only makes me want to get closer.”
Only later did Jiang Xuechi understand that everything had been a carefully woven web from the very beginning.
Liu Yu's voice was soft and amused:
“Since you've seen through it all... then stay by my side forever.”
The whole world loves his gentleness. Only she knows it's a trap meant to draw her into ruin.

New novel coming soon: Humans, the Gods Love You (GB)
Dominant older goddess × cool, loyal young man
In ancient times, gods had no physical form; they were born from thought.
Shen Qingci has watched the world for countless years, seen through the human heart, and understood every desire under heaven. She has moved freely through the mortal world and never once failed.
Until she met Xie Xun.
The young man was covered in frost and snow, with white hair and pale skin, born with albinism.
He was breathtakingly beautiful, like an immortal, yet cold and silent. In all her countless years in this world, Shen Qingci had never met anyone whose thoughts she couldn't read, or who harbored not a single impure desire.
Her competitive spirit stirred. She drew closer step by step, determined to draw that pure soul into her grasp.
*
Xie Xun was a poor, doomed soul, lonely since childhood and afflicted with a terminal illness.
On a rainy night in his youth, as he lay at death's door, a god once paused before him.
When he was nine, he heard her say with his own ears, “Your life is very short. You'll live no longer than your early twenties.”
A single glance lasted a lifetime. He kept that image hidden in his heart for ten years.
Later, nineteen-year-old Xie Xun made a pact with Shen Qingci:
She would use her divine power to share the bone-deep pain of his illness;
He would use his mortal body to help her experience every human emotion and desire.
[Mini Scene]
Moonlight flowed like water. Shen Qingci leaned against the bed, idly winding a strand of Xie Xun's white hair around her finger.
“Does your chest still hurt?” she asked lazily.
Xie Xun's back was rigid, his voice clear and cold as frost. “No.”
A lie.
Their pact connected them, so she could clearly sense the lingering pain in his body.
Shen Qingci chuckled softly, then reached up and caught him by the nape, drawing him against her chest.
“Then listen for me,” she said at an unhurried pace. “Is my heart beating fast?”
The young man's white hair fell loose. His cheek pressed against the thin fabric of her clothes, and his breathing suddenly faltered.
Shen Qingci looked down at him, her smile deepening as his ears turned red.
How could someone like this exist?
Even when he fell in love, he was impossibly pure.
She leaned close to his ear, her voice as soft as a sigh. “Xie Xun, what are you holding back?”
The young man's lashes trembled, and at last he looked up.
In his pale eyes, restraint surged like a tide, yet she still read the nearly reverent, scorching desire within them.
“You know very well,” he said.

Can I say it? Copywriting scam… Does the author have an outline? The second half of the book is just about writing whatever comes to mind. It's obvious that the author can't write it, so he can only end it like this difficult to evaluate Not to mention copywriting fraud The transition is also abrupt... The male and female protagonists still look unfamiliar at the end, may I ask? Teacher, keep working hard
Are there any 80 tricks for male pig feet [angry]
I was just browsing the comments section and someone mentioned Cheese in the Trap, and I suddenly realized, oh, this book is indeed very similar to Cheese in the Trap. From the title, the name of the male protagonist, the name of the female protagonist, to the characters of the male and female protagonists of this article, the plot of this article, and the relationship between the characters, it is all very similar to Cheese in the Trap. I am at a loss... The second half is as bad as Cheese in the Trap. Oh my god, I beg the author to write articles and outlines in the future. How can he write so poorly (I ordered them all, don't scold me). Since I want to write a story similar to Cheese Trap, I don't want to imitate it in the second half... Does this have anything to do with the second half of the copywriting? The plot... The love relationship between the male and female protagonists... The writing is terrible... I suggest that the author write an outline before writing an article in the future, practice it carefully, and then write an article... The most interesting thing about this work is the character design of the original Cheese Trap (I have no choice)
The author seems to write wherever he thinks
The male protagonist doesn't want the female protagonist to be an actress again, right?
The male and female protagonists still look unfamiliar
The relationship between the male and female protagonists is so weird
Does the male protagonist not want the female protagonist to be an actress?
Ahhhhh! I really hate this kind of "best friend"
I feel like the male protagonist looks a lot like Liu Zheng from Cheese in the Trap. I really like this kind of character.
