★ This Novel's Blurb
At her university graduation ceremony, Han Jiangxue received an invitation to her boyfriend's wedding to her best friend, who was pregnant with his child. The goddess of Hengda had fallen from grace after being betrayed, and everyone was waiting to laugh at her.
As for Han Jiangxue herself, she took it all in stride: "Sorry for the spectacle, everyone. Secondhand trash is popular with trashy people."
That night, dressed in red, Han Jiangxue set the dance floor alight at a bar in Beicheng. Following the rules, she picked a man she liked the look of and leaned in to kiss him.
The next day, a trending topic took over the internet:
#AForbiddenLoveBetweenCelibateFilmEmperorGuHengzhouAndAMysteriousFemaleBarDJ#
Looking at the familiar red-clad DJ in the photo, Han Jiangxue was mortified and wanted nothing more than to flee the planet. Unexpectedly, someone cornered her.
"We've kissed and cuddled, and the media have already announced us as a couple. So, girlfriend, when do you plan to take responsibility for me?"
The man's low voice teased Han Jiangxue's ear. Blushing, she tried to defend herself, though she had no real justification. "Sorry, I... I kissed the wrong person."
Gu Hengzhou's heart stirred, and he coaxed her in a low voice. "Want to pretend we're dating? The kind where you get to be your ex-boyfriend's aunt by marriage."
Han Jiangxue's eyes lit up, and she climbed aboard without hesitation.
Six months later, Han Jiangxue sat serenely at the family table, nestled in the arms of the man doting on her. Her ex-boyfriend and her pregnant, fake-sweet best friend awkwardly raised their glasses to her. "Jiang... Aunt... Auntie..."
Gu Hengzhou was a top-tier star and an acclaimed actor in the entertainment industry, with the dignified air of a veteran cadre. Though actresses chasing clout often dragged him onto trending topics, he was so scrupulously proper that his fans had started to worry he might not be interested in women.
One day, he was accidentally kissed by a female bar DJ. The victim was mocked by haters all the way to the trending lists and earned the title of nightclub playboy.
After making inquiries, Gu Hengzhou identified the suspect who had sexually harassed him: his nephew's recently dumped ex-girlfriend.
Convinced he had been used as his nephew's stand-in, Gu Hengzhou was furious. He cornered her and proposed a contract-dating arrangement.
At first, he only wanted to silence the media and fix his image. He also wanted to vent his annoyance at being treated like a tool by deliberately teasing her. Later, he wanted to spend every meal, every season, every morning and evening by her side.
The day after Gu Hengzhou and Han Jiangxue's wedding, an exposé rapidly spread online. It claimed that Han Jiangxue, whom he had supposedly loved for years, was actually his nephew's ex-girlfriend. It even slyly implied that the top-tier star and film emperor was nothing but a stand-in and a tool. Onlookers exclaimed that the entertainment industry sure knew how to have fun, while the comments filled up with people typing "6."
That afternoon, Han Jiangxue, now a well-known painter, posted on Weibo with an image of a twelve-year-old post: a sketch of a young man's profile.
Han Jiangxue: The person I drew twelve years ago is now the one beside me in bed. This isn't a stand-in romance, it's a successful fan's dream come true. @Gu Hengzhou Come home and tell your daughter a story.
Upcoming novel: "The Powerful Man's Wild Little Wife [Interstellar]"
Blurb
Online author Chi Rao died suddenly and woke up thousands of years in the future, in the interstellar era. She had become a homeless nobody in the Qinhan Empire, with no status, education, or property. When she was taken to a social services center, she learned:
Bad news: Citizens who reach the legal age for marriage and childbirth must fulfill their duty to marry and reproduce, or pay a huge fine. If they refuse to pay, they'll be sent to prison to work a sewing machine.
Good news: If you marry and have a baby, the Empire will raise the child for free and provide you with a home and a job. Mom will never have to worry about me working like an ox again!
Looking at the spouse field on the holographic registration form, Chi Rao, who was of marriageable age, unmarried, and broke, steeled herself and wrote down the name of Qinhan Empire's God of War, Gu Zhuzhi.
The whole room erupted. Everyone stared at her in shock. Chi Rao smiled shyly. "I'm Gu Zhuzhi's secret wife."
In the year 8502 of the Interstellar Era, a message shocked every planet: confidential records of the undefeated and mightiest interstellar God of War, Gu Zhuzhi, had been leaked. He was married, and his wife was an uneducated commoner!
At the same time, a novel titled "The Overbearing God of War Falls in Love with Me" appeared out of nowhere in the entertainment section of the interstellar holographic network and became a sensation. The male lead was the Empire's God of War, Gu Zhuzhi, while the female lead and author was Chi Rao, who had returned to her old profession. Citizens across the stars shipped their romance like crazy, while Chi Rao made a fortune.
After years of fighting on planet B261, Gu Zhuzhi finally returned victorious, only to abruptly learn that he was not only married but also devoted to his wife. He knocked on the door of the instigator's room. He wanted to see for himself who he had pinned to the wall and kissed with red eyes last night.
Gu Zhuzhi: "I hear you're my wife?"
Chi Rao: "How about being my unofficial, secret little wife?"
A talkative, romance-starved online author versus a celibate, taciturn human weapon.
Theme: Loving yourself is the beginning of all romance.
