When Shen Yuan was seventeen, the Shen family went bankrupt. With nowhere to go, she moved in with the Cheng family.

Everyone said Cheng Si was cold-hearted and ruthless, with vicious methods. But he doted on her, cherishing and protecting her. He treated her like family, like a little sister.

A year later, Cheng Si's childhood sweetheart returned. Shen Yuan accidentally overheard him saying that he would send her abroad.

Heartbroken, Shen Yuan turned and left, vanishing without a trace.

Years later, they met again. Shen Yuan was calm and unruffled, but Cheng Si kept closing in on her. "I want to pursue you."

P.S. A secret crush becomes reality. The author is terrible at writing blurbs, so please bear with me. Revised on 2020.11.7; screenshot saved.

Blurb for The One in My Heart

When Zhou Yi was sixteen, she and her mother were invited to visit the Xie family in Jiangdu. As soon as they entered, a boy rushing around nearly knocked her over.

In the courtyard, Mrs. Xie stood with a broom in hand and one hand on her hip, scolding, "Xie Chi, just you wait! Starting this semester, your allowance is getting cut in half."

Beneath the sunlight, the cool, fair-skinned young man had a pair of bright, alluring eyes. His expression was languid, his brows slightly furrowed.

Seeing the boy look so aggrieved, Zhou Yi couldn't help laughing.

Mrs. Xie liked Zhou Yi very much. She had Zhou Yi go to school with Xie Chi and told him to look after her there.

For the next several years, Zhou Yi kept her secret tucked away in her heart and quietly followed Xie Chi, like his little shadow.

As time passed, plenty of people at school started teasing them about it.

Zhou Yi happened to overhear someone say to Xie Chi, "Brother Chi, you're so lucky. You've been with the person you like since you were kids. Everyone must be so jealous!"

"Who the hell said I like her? I'm only looking after her because the old lady at home told me to."

Standing alone around a corner, Zhou Yi felt her heart sink little by little. She quietly put away the gift she'd prepared with such care and turned to leave.

After that, Xie Chi never had a little shadow following him again.

Zhou Yi never asked Xie Chi to eat with her again, and she stopped waiting to walk home with him after school. The two drifted further and further apart.

Then Zhou Yi suddenly disappeared. Xie Chi would often be walking along when he'd turn to look behind him at the empty space and stare blankly.

"Of all the things in my sight, you are the loveliest dream I could ever hope for. - Zhou Yi"

"A stranger to the world, the one in my heart. - Xie Chi"

--- Blurb for After Refusing to Be Shipped as a Couple, I Became Famous ---

Jiang Feifei transmigrates into a book as a minor actress who never makes it big. In the original story, she desperately tried to link herself to the movie emperor He Ling to ride his coattails. In the end, his fans cursed her out, and people even threw rotten eggs at her on the street.

After transmigrating into the book, Jiang Feifei decides to turn over a new leaf. She refuses to be shipped with anyone and keeps her distance so fiercely she might as well be in the Pacific Ocean. Who would have thought her rumored love interests would chase after her instead?

Everyone in the industry knows that the movie emperor He is aloof, celibate, uninterested in women, and focused on his career. He thinks nothing of Jiang Feifei.

That is, until reporters photograph him backstage at an awards ceremony, pinning Jiang Feifei against a wall and kissing her deeply. The whole internet explodes.

Netizens and fans all call Jiang Feifei a shameless seductress who lured the movie emperor He into kissing her.

Jiang Feifei sits on the man's lap and hooks a finger under his chin. "Movie Emperor He, come on, explain why there were paparazzi there."

"Paparazzi have sharp noses and are everywhere. It really had nothing to do with me." The movie emperor looks completely innocent.

Jiang Feifei doesn't believe a word of it and immediately posts a clarification on Weibo: It really was just that the floor was slippery. Our mouths touched by accident.

That evening, the movie emperor He posts: Stop insulting my wife, who chased after me first, or she'll run away. Please watch what you say. [This Is So Hard.jpg]

His fans lose it and form a group to flood Jiang Feifei's Weibo, accusing her of being an irresponsible, heartless woman.

Jiang Feifei: I really just want to be a happy little couch potato. I don't want to trend or ride anyone's coattails.

A laid-back couch potato versus a drama-queen movie emperor (who overthinks everything). P.S. There is no groveling redemption arc.

Theme: Even after hitting rock bottom, keep reaching for the sun.
