After graduating, Chen Ci followed the usual path and became a schoolteacher. His life was an ordinary routine of home and work, with school holidays in summer and winter, just like anyone else's.

That is, until a photo of him walking shoulder to shoulder with someone started trending, and the whole internet began digging to find out who the man beside the award-winning actor was.

Everyone in the entertainment industry knew the actor had a romantic interest. In an interview, he smiled and said, "No, I have to keep it secret. You can't bother him, either."

"I really like him. The kind of like where I want to marry him."

"He's shy. I haven't succeeded in proposing yet."

"Yeah, he's adorable, like cotton candy: soft and sweet."

"..."

Chen Ci: ???

What happened to keeping up appearances and sticking to your public image? Why are you showing off your relationship all by yourself???

And another thing!!!

What happened to the short-term relationship we agreed on at the start?

But the man pulled him into his arms in the throes of passion and murmured by his ear, "But, darling, a lifetime isn't that long."

An award-winning actor whose public image went to the dogs · occasionally acts like a big puppy · can show off his relationship all by himself · gong × Who are you, friend??? · shou

Reading guide:

① The gong and shou are not based on real people.

② A brainless, sugary-sweet story. It's not a serious entertainment-industry novel, and the author's logic is dead.

③ Hope you enjoy reading OvO

[Blurb for the upcoming novel "Did I Become My Archrival's Canary?"

Everyone in the city knew that Young Master Jiang kept a canary at home.

The canary was young and sweet, with a lovely voice, but no one had ever seen them.

Then, one day, the Shen family went bankrupt overnight. Someone saw Jiang Yiyan, who had been saying since high school that he'd eventually destroy the Shen family, cancel all his meetings and rush to the Shen residence. He shielded the proud Second Young Master Shen and brought him out from under the court's sealing notices and the reporters' cameras.

People said Second Young Master Shen was finished, that his archrival would humiliate him.

Others said the canary was about to lose favor.

Only Jiang Yiyan knew that he was the one who'd fallen.

From the moment he saw that boy in high school, he'd been a blazing fire in his heart and warm sunshine in his eyes.

He would carry a torch into the headwind for the rest of his life, never turning back.

Second Young Master Shen has been a little troubled lately.

His old friends asked him who was more favored at the Jiang residence, him or the canary.

He didn't know how to explain that he was the canary himself.

Don't ask.

Blame the cheap booze.

Blame an impulsive mistake.

Blame being attracted to his huge dick.
