[Main Couple] Wu Chuan x Gu Jiarui: a charming, attractive entertainer with high emotional intelligence x a brilliant, hopelessly straight fangirl and scientist, whose unrequited love began in school.
Ever since he debuted through a talent show at eighteen, Wu Chuan had been the very definition of an overnight peak. After spending years making a quiet living in the entertainment industry, he finally starred in a hugely acclaimed TV drama at twenty-six. Riding on the popularity of his role, his manager signed him up for a reality show about running a business. He thought he'd just be background scenery with little screen time for a few episodes. He never expected his little fangirl, who'd been following him since middle school, to show up too.
Fan chat before the show premiered:
- Ah, Wu Chuan's girlfriend seems to be on the show too!
- What? Wu Chuan has a girlfriend? I'm unfollowing him!
Fan chat when the show premiered:
- I just want to see what Wu Chuan's girlfriend is like.
- I really don't think it's a good idea for an entertainer to announce a relationship right after becoming popular again.
Fan chat after the show premiered:
- Ahhh, Brother Chuan, hurry up and propose!
- Ahhh, get together! Get together! The whole country gives its blessing to this marriage!
Even the official state media couldn't resist joking around on Weibo: "Comrade Wu Chuan, please be sure to help our country keep this outstanding talent."
Ever since she fell in love with Wu Chuan at fourteen, Gu Jiarui had been a hopelessly straight fangirl through and through. She followed the male lead for years while studying, and finally turned her unrequited love into an open crush at twenty-four.
[POV Characters] Wu Chuan (main), Gu Jiarui (main), Rui Han, Rui Zhi... (to be added)
[Content Notes]
1. Writing style: POV with multiple viewpoint characters, non-linear storytelling, third person.
2. Rui Han's storyline includes a little yuri. If that bothers you, please don't read. If you do read it, please don't criticize me for including yuri in a straight romance.
3. The romance develops slowly and focuses on character growth.
Theme: Life is about making mistakes through practice and growing from them. Don't be afraid to stand up for what you believe in as you grow.
I didn't pay attention and fell into the pit. Zun was very sad.
