While they were together, the two kept their relationship under wraps. Aside from their close friends, nobody knew.
Like a flower blooming in a hidden place, its fragrance went unnoticed.
Two years after they broke up, they met again, and rumors about the two of them spread everywhere.
The rumors said: Zhou Lin had actually fallen for Meng Qiubai at first sight;
The rumors said: the two of them had been together for ages, and Zhou Lin had spent two years looking for Meng Qiubai;
The rumors said: Zhou Lin loved Meng Qiubai to the very depths of his soul, and had given up everything his family had just to wait for him to come back;
In response, Zhou Lin, one of the people involved, debunked the rumors: Every word was true.
As for Meng Qiubai, the other person involved: They make it sound so real...
Zhou Lin, the scheming pursuer: #Spreading rumors about myself every day is such a thrill# #I’ve paved the whole road, now I’m just waiting for you to take the last step#
Coming Soon: Saving My Childhood Friend, the Villain
Zhou You had a dream. He dreamed that he was living inside a tragic danmei romance novel, where Lu Li, his childhood friend whom he hadn’t seen in ages, was the story’s main villain.
Lu Li fell for the novel’s protagonist at first sight and stopped at nothing to get him. In the end, after losing everything, he died in a car crash.
Meanwhile, the protagonist’s love interest acquired every company connected to Lu Li’s family, including the Zhou family’s businesses. Zhou You, an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire, ended up losing all his assets, too.
The dream felt incredibly real. When Second Young Master Zhou woke up, furious and wanting nothing more than to be a family freeloader, his blood pressure shot up. He immediately called Lu Li.
“Is the game not fun, or is making money boring? What the hell are you dating for?”
Lu Li couldn’t be bothered to argue with Zhou You, who periodically lost his mind, and tried to brush him off with a single sentence: “Lin is putting together a get-together for once. It’s at New Starting Point. You coming?”
New Starting Point? Wasn’t that where Lu Li fell for the protagonist at first sight?
--
There were too many coincidences to explain, so Zhou You could only launch an all-out surveillance plan. He took up all of Lu Li’s free time, cultivated Lu Li’s interests and hobbies, and kept him away from anything vulgar or mediocre.
Unfortunately, the day Lu Li met the protagonist still came.
Zhou You looked at the protagonist ahead, then turned to see Lu Li walking this way. Lu Li’s eyes were dark and unreadable, but his gaze remained fixed on the protagonist.
Zhou You let out a long sigh. Fine, let it all burn. There’s no saving him.
But Lu Li walked up behind him and stopped. Suddenly, he covered Zhou You’s eyes with his palm and leaned close to his ear. “I can put up with you throwing a childish tantrum every now and then, being willful and immature. But if you’re going to string me along while setting your sights on someone else, you’d better think carefully about the consequences.”
Zhou You: “...”
Coming Soon 2: My Contract Lover’s Persona Crumbled After He Lost His Memory
Xiang Xing found out that Si Pei had lost his memory after a car accident. As his partner in name only, Xiang Xing had no choice but to bring him home and take care of him.
Bound together by a marriage contract, the two barely knew each other. At most, they were alumni from the same school.
Si Pei came from a powerful family and was aloof, rarely letting anyone get close. Xiang Xing knew they belonged to different worlds and had always kept his distance.
Now, the two of them were living under the same roof.
But the amnesiac Si Pei seemed like a different person. He was convinced that they shared a passionate, heartrending love story.
He took care of all the housework, and whenever he had a chance, he would snuggle up and hug Xiang Xing, as if he were suffering from skin hunger.
Xiang Xing thought there had to be more to it than amnesia. Maybe Si Pei’s brain was completely broken.
He coaxed and tricked him into going to the hospital for a full examination.
The doctor looked at Si Pei with a deeply furrowed brow and a complicated expression. Xiang Xing’s heart sank to the bottom.
At night, Si Pei finally got his wish and climbed into Xiang Xing’s bed. Hugging him, he said with restraint, “I still can’t remember our past. Just bear with me for now.”
Xiang Xing’s heart softened for a moment. He took the initiative and draped an arm over Si Pei’s shoulder, and the two of them spent a passionate night together.
A few days later, Xiang Xing found the examination report in the trash. It showed that Si Pei was perfectly normal, healthy as could be.
Xiang Xing: ??
Si Pei, just about to take out the trash: I can explain...
