Synopsis
Tan Xiyu got dumped. The trending topic #Movie Star Jiang Luze's Romance May Have Been Exposed# stayed up all night, and he spent the whole night crying and getting drunk.
The next morning, he opened his eyes wide
The bad news: He'd slept with someone.
The good news: That someone was Jiang Luze.
Jiang Luze's face was cold, and before he could speak, Tan Xiyu burst into tears. “Yesterday, I had a huge fight with my boss, got fired, got kicked out by my landlord, and ended up homeless. Then I found out the person I've had a crush on for ten years is getting married... So could you take me in?”
After two seconds of silence, Jiang Luze said, “Sure.”
Tan Xiyu: “???"
The life Tan Xiyu imagined living together
Waking Jiang Luze up in the morning with teary eyes.
Sitting on Jiang Luze's lap after a shower while he reads scripts.
Hugging a pillow and asking Jiang Luze if he wants to sleep together.
What actually happened
Jiang Luze locks his bedroom door. No chance of getting in, haha.
Tan Xiyu has just opened his collar to show off his collarbone when Jiang Luze turns around and closes it.
Jiang Luze stays up all night reading scripts without even glancing at him.
Furious, Tan Xiyu packs his bags and leaves in the middle of the night. Then he cries and gets drunk for another whole night, telling his friend that Jiang Luze is frigid.
After venting to his heart's content, he turns around and sees Jiang Luze standing behind him, watching with an unreadable expression.
The next day, Tan Xiyu texts his friend with his butt covered: Men who practice abstinence are terrifying.

Even in the glitzy world of show business, Jiang Zelu is true to his name, exceptionally disciplined and chaste.
Then one day, he wakes up to find a young man covered in marks lying beside him.
His temple throbs, but before he can say anything, the young man cries and tells him about his miserable circumstances. Jiang Zelu is about to wait for him to ask for compensation when the young man says all he wants is a place to stay.
It's an unreasonable request, but since he made a mistake, he answers, “Okay.”
Living together turns out to be much more interesting than he'd imagined. The young man is scatterbrained: he either goes into the wrong room or forgets to button his clothes, and he loves gazing at Jiang Zelu while he reads scripts.
He's always making blunders, but his eyes are always bright and shining. A little... cute.
Falling for him is only natural, but then the young man runs away.
Worried, Jiang Zelu goes out to find him, only to hear the young man call him frigid.
Jiang Zelu smiles. Good.
When he wakes again, Jiang Luze looks at the young man in his arms, the corners of his eyes red and damp with tears. He smiles, lowering his eyes as he presses a kiss to the man's forehead. “Still think I'm frigid?”
Tan Xiyu: QAQ

The Disabled Tycoon's Silly Housekeeper
Su Yan'jin is kicked out of his home and left on the streets with his cards canceled. To keep from starving, he has no choice but to apply for jobs on an employment app.
After failing his thirteenth interview, his friend can't take it anymore and asks if he'd like to work as a housekeeper.
Su Yan'jin: I'm a young master who can't even touch water. You want me to go be someone's son now?
Friend: A monthly salary of 100,000, after tax.
Su Yan'jin hesitates.
Friend: Room and board included, with bonuses on top.
Su Yan'jin wavers.
Friend: The house is only about three times bigger than yours.
Su Yan'jin: Where's my dad?
Only after arriving does Su Yan'jin understand why the salary is so high.
Huo Yu was left with disabled legs after a car accident. He can't walk properly, has a gloomy and difficult personality, and has already scared off eight top-tier housekeepers. His family is just trying a last-ditch solution by hiring Su Yan'jin.
Thinking of his extravagant spending and the tiny coffin of a room he's living in now, Su Yan'jin thinks, I will die here before I leave.
But Su Yan'jin is used to being waited on. He can't lift a finger, and even boiling water leaves him scalded. On his first day in the mansion, he manages to anger Huo Yu so badly that he ends up in the hospital.
Su Yan'jin stands by the bed, looking at Huo Yu's cold face. He picks up his phone to look for more jobs on the employment app, only to discover that Huo Yu's mother has paid him a month's salary, saying her son finally seems a little more alive.
Su Yan'jin is deeply shocked, but shyly promises to try even harder and become the most infuriating little housekeeper by Huo Yu's side!
Following orders, Su Yan'jin picks fights: Huo Yu reaches for a dish, and he spins the lazy Susan; Huo Yu drinks water, and he throws a tantrum; Huo Yu goes to sleep, and he plays music; Huo Yu's thigh is there, so he gropes it.
In public, he boasts that he'll rise from housekeeper to become the lady of the Huo family. In private, he pitifully insists he's only doing it to cure Huo Yu.
Huo Yu is so furious that he works hard at rehabilitation every day, hoping to get Su Yan'jin out of there as soon as possible.
As Huo Yu's health improves day by day, Su Yan'jin remembers all the trouble he's caused and packs his bags to run away.
But just as he steps out the door, he's hauled into the bedroom from behind.
The man's warmth presses against his back, and a deep laugh sounds by his ear. “Didn't you want to rise to the top, Madam Huo?”
Su Yan'jin: Wuwu...
★ The Scent Addict ★
Wen Yuzhi never expected to see Lin Yan again.
The boy who used to blush and call him teacher has become his boss. With a cold expression, Lin Yan looks at him and asks, “Were you with me back then just to get close to my father?”
Wen Yuzhi wears a polite, professional smile, his tone just as distant. “My husband died. I'm raising a child alone. Don't ask.”
Despite his words, he can't help taking a step closer to Lin Yan.
After that, Wen Yuzhi takes things even further at work.
His deliberate approaches, casual touches, the jackets he keeps accidentally taking for three days straight, and the pheromones he leaves at Lin Yan's desk when no one's around all reveal his desire to rekindle their relationship.
Lin Yan's cold gaze gradually grows heated. He makes the first move, only for Wen Yuzhi to pour a bucket of cold water over him.
The beautiful Omega returns the jacket he once again took by mistake, wearing the same professional smile. “We're just pure and proper colleagues.”
Later, Wen Yuzhi takes his son to the hospital, where he happens to run into Lin Yan, who's visiting a friend.
Wen Yuzhi hurriedly shields the child's face, which looks so much like Lin Yan's, but the child in his arms points at Lin Yan and says in a soft voice, “Daddy who turned into a star is back.”
That night, Lin Yan corners him against the wall and grits his teeth. “Your husband died? Turned into a star? You've kept yourself a widow for all these years. That must've been hard, dear colleague.”
Wen Yuzhi smells Lin Yan's domineering pheromones, and a flame of desire kindles in his heart. Even the look in his pleading eyes is damp.
He's addicted to Lin Yan's pheromones.
*
Lin Yan is handsome, comes from a powerful family, and is a top Alpha. Though he's cold and keeps people at a distance, admirers still flock to him in droves.
Unfortunately, Lin Yan has never been interested in any of them, so plenty of people privately suspect he's impotent.
Until the company's annual gala, when his father brings his newly hired assistant onto the stage.
The fair-skinned, beautiful Omega stands under the spotlight and looks in Lin Yan's direction with delicate features.
Flustered and startled, he looks like a frightened deer, and in an instant, he crashes into Lin Yan's heart.
From that night on, Lin Yan dreams of nothing but him.
The one who once belonged to him, body and soul.
Theme: Seize the opportunity, and your dreams can come true.
