1.

Rumor has it that Tsinghua's School of Economics and Management has hired a handsome, cool-looking industry big shot as a visiting professor.

Every lecture is packed, with students lined up all the way from Tsinghua to Peking University.

After her roommate dragged her along to sit in on one of his lectures, Wen Xiyu became his most devoted fan.

He's brilliant, handsome, and rich. He's perfect in every way! Ahhhhh!

Except he's maybe just a tiny bit hard to approach... QAQ

2.

The bar was dim and hazy, and men and women of all kinds exchanged glances.

The man was tall and straight-backed, with beautiful, strong wrists. His movements at the pool table were effortless. He bent to line up his shot and sank it in one stroke.

A couple of shirt buttons were casually undone at his collar, making him dangerously captivating. Just looking at him was enough to set anyone's heart racing.

Wen Xiyu was so dazzled by his looks that she let the words slip: "Oh my God, I want to get on--"

She looked up and met Tan Jun Chi's calm, expressionless face.

Wen Xiyu: "...the course."

[Bonus scene]

After repeatedly making a fool of herself trying to flirt with the big shot, Wen Xiyu finally became too embarrassed to face him and slipped away in secret.

But a few weeks later, at the celebration banquet for the Hong Kong stock market's biggest IPO...

Someone saw the industry big shot, a veritable flower on a high mountain, cornering a sweet, soft girl. His dark eyes were shadowy and unfathomable as he gripped the back of her neck and warned her in a husky voice, "Don't run away again."

Reader notes:

1. Important: This is not a teacher-student romance! The male lead is a visiting professor for one semester, and not in the heroine's department. They have no relationship during that time.

2. Content warning: The heroine is quirky, unpredictable, and ridiculously goofy, and she's always making a fool of herself. Give it a try if that sounds fun, and no need to tell me if you drop it.

3. The story is still set at Tsinghua.

4. If you like pure, sweet romances, dive right in! Very sweet, 1v1, each other's first love, happy ending.

Coming Soon: The Dawn and Dusk Game

During her summer internship at an investment bank, Huai Xin catches a glimpse of the young, successful, handsome, and refined vice president.

The man is warm and gentlemanly, with elegant manners. Even the glimpse of his wrist at the end of his sleeve is irresistibly sexy and charming.

He's dangerous enough to pique her interest, and she starts paying close attention to him. At the same time, she realizes that their work relationship is holding her back.

One day, Huai Xin gets dolled up and goes clubbing, never expecting to run into Yu Cheng.

He takes a seat beside her, his handsome features looking even more striking and rakish in the dim light.

Thinking he won't recognize her, Huai Xin pretends to be someone else and leans close to his ear with a soft laugh. "Big brother, I want to try your Louis XIV."

Their breaths mingle, their warmth touches, and an ambiguous tension hangs between them.

Huai Xin gets what she wants and exchanges contact information with him.

They only chat online. In the office during the day, they keep their distance, but they often watch movies together on video calls late at night.

Things seem to be going increasingly smoothly in private. One night, Huai Xin puts on heavy makeup again and, under her false identity, goes to a hotel with him.

Standing at the door to the room, Yu Cheng asks in a low, mellow voice, "Are you sure you want to go in?"

Huai Xin lazily lifts her chin, her eyes sparkling. "What, you don't want to?"

"No." He leans close to her ear, his warm breath stirring a delicious shiver. He chuckles. "It's just that you might not be able to make tomorrow morning's meeting."

***The leads act like two different people by day and by night

A seductive little temptress who's a great actress x a refined but wicked man who quietly watches her performance

A player x an even more sophisticated player

[At first, he thought it was just a game. Then he fell for her for real.]

Reader notes:

1. Nine-year age gap. The leads are evenly matched, 1v1, happy ending.

2. Not a workplace romance. Set among the wealthy families of Hong Kong.

Coming Soon: Luring Him into Character

After her girl group disbands, Qu Nan, the center known as the "Enchantress of the World," switches careers and becomes a rookie actress.

A famous director takes a liking to her and casts her as the lead in a major film production, where she gets the chance to work with top-tier star and award-winning actor Dai Yubai.

But in their first scene together, she needs eighteen takes and still can't get into character.

Dai Yubai's expression is calm. He lowers his eyes and says nothing, then tells her after filming, "If there's anything you don't understand, you can come to the lounge and run lines with me."

The others whisper among themselves. Teacher Dai is always strict with himself and dedicated to his work. He must have a terrible impression of this unprofessional leading lady. He's just too good-natured to have blown up and embarrassed her on the spot.

-

After she'd been on set for a while, Qu Nan's performance was still as bad as ever.

A supporting actress secretly laughs at her. At this rate, Teacher Dai will ask to replace her sooner or later, and she'll be kicked off the set.

But they wait a day, two days, three days, then a week, half a month, and eventually most of the film's production. Qu Nan is still firmly in the leading role, and her acting seems to be getting better and better???

Just when everyone is wondering what's going on, one night someone notices that the door to Dai Yubai's lounge is open. They're about to go remind him when they see the impossibly handsome man pinning her hard against the sofa. His breathing unsteady, he rubs against her ear and murmurs, "...Honey, that's not how you act out a bed scene."
