So the Big Shot Has a Secret Crush on Me

Lantian once went on a blind date and unexpectedly ran into Zhou Yin, his ex-boyfriend's college roommate. Back in college, Zhou Yin was top of the class, came from an outstanding family, and was devastatingly handsome. Aloof and proud, he was the campus's legendary academic prodigy. Lantian remembered that the prodigy hadn't liked him much back then. But when they reunited years later, Zhou Yin asked, "If you want to find someone to marry, what do you think of me?" To do his filial duty, Lantian, already exhausted from one blind date after another, agreed. He was prepared for a marriage of mutual respect and icy distance, each getting what they needed, and for them to part ways after three years at most. Later, he realized something was a little off: He came home smelling of someone else's perfume, and his husband was displeased. He glanced at someone else a couple of times, and his husband was displeased. He smiled at someone else, and his husband was displeased all over again. Zhou Yin had always kept a secret deep in his heart. In college, during a power outage in the dormitory, someone mistook him for their boyfriend and kissed him. From then on, he couldn't see anything the same way. No beauty could compare to the one he had met on Wu Mountain. * Years later, during an interview on the Finance Channel, the host said, "...There used to be a saying that at least half of C City's unmarried women and men wanted to marry you. I'm sure our viewers are curious too: how did your wife win you over?" Zhou Yin replied, "He didn't pursue me. I've had a secret crush on him since college, for eight whole years." #Don'tRubYourLoveInOurFacesLikeThat# [Your name is the shortest love poem I've ever seen.] My new novel, In Love with the White Moonlight, is now open for bookmarks.

After meeting Jiang Chengyuan, his motto changed: Heaven and earth are vast, but Jiang Chengyuan is the greatest. Jiang Chengyuan was the star of their high school, a pure-hearted boy like a pear blossom on a country lane. His family was powerful and influential, and he came first in every exam. Zhou Qi: "So what if my family's poor? So what if my grades are bad? I've decided I'm going to pursue you!" The first time they met, Zhou Qi stopped him and forced his own head against Jiang Chengyuan's chest. "Jiang Chengyuan, feel my hair. Isn't it soft? I just washed it yesterday." Jiang Chengyuan touched it without thinking. Zhou Qi: "You touched my head, so now you're mine. I'll look after you from now on. I'll make sure you can do whatever you want around here." Zhou Qi didn't understand why pursuing someone meant he had to study, but having Jiang Chengyuan tutor him made it all right. In two years, Zhou Qi went from a bottom-of-the-class delinquent who was always fighting to getting into the prestigious B University. But he never won Jiang Chengyuan's heart. Jiang Chengyuan vanished from his world. * Years later, Zhou Qi had earned his medical doctorate and been working for three years. He was a skilled surgeon, a source of pride to his mother and everyone back home. When he met Jiang Chengyuan again, it was at a run-down auto repair shop. Jiang Chengyuan had changed so much! His skin had grown rough, his hands were stained with engine grease, and a long scar ran down his arm. Zhou Qi told himself fiercely: Even if you don't like me, I'm going to sleep with you this time. All these years without Jiang Chengyuan, there had always been an empty space in his heart. [From the Top's Perspective] In high school, Jiang Chengyuan had a provincial governor for a father. He loved studying, loved life, and loved to smile. He was every inch a born winner. Later, Governor Jiang was caught up in a scandal and died in prison. Jiang Chengyuan had no choice but to leave the military, which he had loved. An empty well had opened inside him. Only when he traveled through war zones with a camera could he forget it was there. When he reunited with Zhou Qi, his heart trembled beyond his control. This was the boy he had once loved so fiercely, but never confessed to. P.S.
