At the height of his acting career, Chu Jianxing left the industry and got married.
He got his wish: he married his idol of many years, the unattainable Best Actor Lu Shennian, in everyone's eyes.
Only later did he learn that Lu Shennian didn't love him at all. Their marriage was nothing more than a way to comfort Lu Shennian's grandfather, who didn't have long to live.
After so many years of unrequited love, Chu Jianxing became sensitive, suspicious, obsessively infatuated, and unrecognizable. Former fans turned on him, saying he should have died sooner. Friends and family couldn't stand his madness and all left him.
And Lu Shennian, the man he loved so deeply, wouldn't even look at him.
After being reborn, Chu Jianxing saw things differently.
Whoever wants to suffer for love can have at it!
Leave him the pain of becoming wildly popular and filthy rich. He can handle it.
He'll still get married, but that's fine. They'll divorce in a year.
His idol will always be his idol, but the distance between him and Lu Shennian will be the distance between the screen and the audience. Lu Shennian, please stay out of your fan's life!
Soon, Chu Jianxing became even more popular, but he was baffled by the way it happened.
Paparazzi caught Chu Jianxing and Lu Shennian meeting secretly in a bar parking lot at dawn, acting intimately
Chu Jianxing: Just say I was drunk and called a friend to drive me home.
Lu Shennian: Hello. He's my husband. Here's our marriage certificate.
Chu Jianxing's new drama had several kissing scenes
Chu Jianxing: It's work! I still need to hone my acting, and I'm willing to boldly try any kind of scene.
Lu Shennian: No need to trouble anyone else. You can practice kissing at home. Three nights in a row would be no problem.
CP fans made a 180-panel collage of Chu Jianxing and Lu Shennian at an awards ceremony. There was plenty of eye-contact candy, detail candy, and seating-arrangement candy
Chu Jianxing: I've got connections. They're fake-married and will divorce soon. Don't ship them. Run!
Lu Shennian: I've got connections. There's no way they're getting divorced. They're together forever.
On the night their fake marriage reached its one-year mark, Chu Jianxing reminded Lu Shennian before bed, "Don't forget to bring the certificate to the civil affairs bureau first thing tomorrow."
The next morning, after Lu Shennian had kept him up all night and he'd failed to wake up early, Chu Jianxing couldn't figure out how they had ended up unable to get divorced.
Beautiful, adored shou x secretly passionate, jealous gong
Reader's Guide:
1. Before being reborn, the gong never wronged the shou. There is no face-slapping or scum-punishing plot. It's simply a sweet little romance, and the gong and shou are devoted to each other in body and heart.
2. After being reborn, the shou is still a fan of the gong's career, but because of what happened in his previous life, he truly has no romantic feelings for the gong at first.
3. After being reborn, the gong loves the shou deeply and is always the one pursuing and doting on him. The gong gets jealous a lot, with plenty of scenes where he gets jealous when the shou interacts with other people, animals, or objects.
4. Same-sex marriage is legal in this alternate universe. It is very removed from reality, so please don't relate it to real life.
Theme: Learning to love through being loved
A little obsessed with copywriting? So why didn't you like receiving in your previous life? In this life, when people stay away from him, he just likes them? Confusing plot
In his previous life, he was so crazy that no one wanted to get involved with him. In this life, he seems to be free and easy. He talks like crazy and doesn't want to have a relationship beyond being a fan idol, but he always talks about how he was not treated well in his previous life, and he will definitely not be good in this life. If he is sober in the world... He is completely awkward.
It would be great if Gong could have the memory of his previous life, otherwise it would be really boring to watch.
So why didn't I like receiving the attack in my last life?
In fact, the reason why I was so crazy in my previous life was because I felt insecure...
Is the author here? Please reply. I have bought 38 chapters of your article. I saw the section about being the main subject and the main actor. I just watched it and it was updated. I clicked in and took a look. I bought it and he asked me to buy it again. What's the problem? The other seven serials I bought were fine. Only yours has something wrong. What do you mean, do you want to buy it again?
So do you have any memories from before? If not, I don't want to read it.
Ah...? Are you envious... Emm, is this the siege effect? You always look forward to something you can't get.
I'm so vicious, I thought about how we should just forget it. I know it's impossible, but from the words, I have a sense of beauty. I'm so contradictory.
You don't write an agreement until you get married, and you write it with a pen... ???????!!!! A prenuptial agreement doesn't need to be signed before marriage, and then it should be printed with a printer. Stupid baby, writing it by hand is so tiring.
