I think that if my life were a melodramatic novel,
I'd be playing a part in it, more or less, but I'd definitely be a third-rate actor.
I've acted devotedly in love for all these years, but my spouse still doesn't love me.
I've acted like the best of buddies for all these years, but my childhood friend still thinks I'm up to no good.
I've acted like the past can't be undone for all these years, but my ex-boyfriends still think there's unfinished business between them.
I've acted like a spoiled rich kid for all these years, but people still think I'm pretending to be a fool while hiding my real strength.
I'm exhausted, but even lazier. I can't be bothered to deal with these messy relationships, so I let them do whatever they want. Besides, my family owns a mine.
But then one day, my White Moonlight came back.
Fu Xi could finally shake off his lazy bones and break up, one by one, with his spouse of convenience, his idiot childhood friend, his annoying ex-boyfriends, and the white-lotus homewrecker.
But to his surprise, they all said in unison, "I've loved you for so many years. Why would you let me go?"
Also known as "The Monologue of a Third-Rate Actor" and "After We Broke Up, Everyone Who Hated Me Fell in Love with Me."
An old-school melodramatic story. A hapless shou adored by everyone. None of the people mentioned in the blurb are the main gong.
First-person narration. The gong and shou are not blood-related.
Feel free to discuss in the comments. I'm not thin-skinned, I'm not afraid of criticism, and I'm happy to discuss the plot with you.
[Melodramatic choose-your-gong story, "The Poor Honest Man." Please add it to your collection.]
A timid, honest man x all kinds of arrogant elites who bully him. An old-school melodrama.
An honest man is an ordinary person: timid, decent, with no particular skills or temper.
So the CEO treats him like a useful tool at work, the rich second-generation heir tricks him into being a free ATM, his childhood sweetheart has been psychologically manipulating him since they were kids until he has no friends, and the movie star forces his love on him until he has a mental breakdown. He gives his heart again and again, only to be betrayed, and can do nothing but accept his bad luck.
Get revenge on the arrogant elites? No way.
All he can do is slink back to his hometown for a blind date.
His date is a pretty woman a head taller than him, though she's a little bad-tempered.
The honest man thinks that at last he can settle down to a peaceful life with a wife and kids, keeping warm in bed by the kang.
At the wedding, the honest man is waiting for the bride to enter when the door suddenly flies open.
The high-and-mighty CEO, rich heir, movie star, and professor are all wrestling in front of him. They all want him.
The honest man is utterly humiliated. Just as he thinks his life can hardly get any more miserable,
his bride takes off her red veil, revealing an Adam's apple, and joins the brawl.
The honest man closes his eyes and faints.
When he wakes up, the doctor tells him he's terminally ill and has only three months to live.
What a poor honest man.
What use is it now for those arrogant elites to say they love him?
Straight, timid, and slow-witted shou
X
Proud, taciturn CEO gong
Arrogant, willful younger gong
Childhood friend and top student gong
Carefree movie star gong
Short-tempered, strong cross-dressing gong
*I'm a simple country bumpkin. My melodrama is the old-fashioned, tearjerking kind from 1982.
*At different stages, he gets close to each gong, then breaks up and gets pulled back in, leading to a huge battle of competing gongs.
*The gongs are all crazy, and their love is rotten. The terminal illness is fake!
Theme: Stay clear-headed and true to yourself.
It's cool, this is the right way to open the heart of a rich young master. Money is such a good thing, except for true love, it can't be obtained by anything else (in fact, if you have a higher emotional intelligence, you can also get true love)
Are you completely stranded on an island now (horror)
This is just a fake article. It is a lie. Don't enter this article again. It says it's a divorce, but it keeps dragging on. This author is lying. Don't come in. He is a normal person. He insists on delaying the divorce. Don't include it in his article. In the end, this person actually developed feelings for the person he wanted to divorce. Don't read his article.
Hahahahahaha I just like saw-mouthed gourds being beaten up by society
No wonder I feel so coldhearted
It makes me angry,,, is this the love of your young master Jingda? ? Does he like you? He is also your sponsor? Shou really has a good temper. . . Jing felt as if he was so well protected that he didn't have to worry about anything. He only had love and love in his mind, and he would be embarrassed outside casually. His love was enough to make people suffocate. I understand his awkward mentality, but he is really good at memorizing the book. Tianhu played out all his pairs at the beginning.
When I finished reading it, I was in so much pain that I didn't want to watch it a second time. Now when I watched it a second time on a whim, I was thinking about how complicated my brother's mood was when he watched Fu Xi's life in the past few years...
I feel like I can't forget my feelings for any of my exes! It's equivalent to being tortured by several people at the same time. . .
It's really the first time I've seen such a useless, stupid and holy father protagonist who won't let others clean up the mess (personal opinion, don't criticize if you don't like it)
Jing Yao sounds so pitiful when he says this, but why does he say one thing and do another? What he did was not what he thought at all? He said he liked Fu Xi but showed ridicule and disgust. She said she wanted to be the one who loved him first and leave good memories, but why did she end up leaving Fu Xi alone on the stage to dance solo? It's really weird and confusing.
