[Complete. Upcoming story: Bite the Stars, a mutual-crush-turned-love story with a raising-her-up romance. Please add it to your reading list~] When the young master of the Lu Group next door was brought back, someone warned Yu Yue that her new big brother was dangerous and she should stay away from him. Yu Yue obediently nodded, then secretly climbed over the wall. The young man had pale skin and exquisitely sharp features. He looked over at her. She trembled in fright and fell onto the lawn beside him. She blinked her fox-like eyes, then held out the candy in her arms. "Big brother, it's really sweet." The year the old master passed away, Lu Chu was driven out of the Lu family. Eleven-year-old Yu Yue clutched his clothes and cried so hard she could barely breathe. The young man slowly bent down, his sickly face sharp and cold as he stared at the Lu family behind her. In a low voice, he said, "Yueyue, do you believe that one day these people will beg me to come back?" Yu Yue stared at him in confusion. - Years later, Yu Yue lost a bet and was forced to pretend to be her childhood friend Zhao Shang's girlfriend at the Lu family home. She smiled with gentle poise, her fox-like eyes curving beautifully. Then she froze when she saw the person slowly coming downstairs. The man wore a black shirt with the collar slightly undone and thin silver-rimmed glasses. His face was sickly pale, and the corners of his eyes tilted upward. Frail and aloof, he looked like a demon. Zhao Shang immediately stood at attention. "Hello, Uncle." The man's gaze swept over the girl with her smiling fox-like eyes. Behind his silver-rimmed glasses, a flash of malice passed through his eyes. As Yu Yue passed the study, a hand suddenly clamped around her wrist and pinned her against the bookcase. "Break up." Yu Yue: ? The man removed his glasses with one hand, his phoenix eyes lowered. "Be good." He wasn't worthy of her. One day, later on, the man pulled Little Yue onto his lap. After taking every advantage, he leaned close to her ear and murmured, "It really is sweet." I once fell into an abyss. You pulled me into the warm sunlight. The sweetness that belongs only to him must not be profaned by vulgarity. - Lu Chu was famous in the venture capital world. Not only for his deep scheming and ruthless methods, but also for his looks: tall, long-legged, unnaturally pale, with sharp, upturned eyes and an air of cold nobility. His black shirt was slightly open, his suit jacket concealed a strong waist, and silver-rimmed glasses sat on his nose. He looked like a gentlemanly scoundrel. Before long, however, a remarkably delicate young girl appeared by his side. She looked delicate and young. Everyone understood: she was a relative of the big boss Lu. So they treated the girl with great kindness. Until one day, just before a banquet was about to begin, Lu Chu was nowhere to be found. His assistant and business partners searched anxiously. As they passed the stairs, a man's low, hoarse voice came from behind a door. One of the partners hurried to reach for the handle, but the man's voice suddenly became clearer, edged with anger. "Avoiding me?" "Yu Yue, you've really got some nerve." The partner's hand shook. The assistant reacted quickly, grabbed him, and led him away. As they turned, the girl's voice came from inside, tinged with a faint sob. "Then what do you want me to do...?" The man's voice grew even hoarser. "Take responsibility." The assistant thought he must be losing his mind. His boss had clearly lost his mind too.

It may be revised, but not by much. ---------- [Upcoming: Bite the Stars] --------- When Cheng Yan was twenty, his talent and camera presence, along with a sixteen-second silent performance, won him an award and made him a Best Actor. From then on, he dominated the rankings by a mile, and had no dating scandals throughout his career. The most alluring male celebrity online, Cheng Yan claimed the top spot thanks to his mesmerizing eyes, the beauty mark on his collarbone, and his noble, carefree air. Glamorous actresses flirted and fawned over him, but he ignored them all. The media joked that the only thing capable of making the Best Actor bend was a movie camera. During an interview at a film festival, a nosy reporter asked about his ideal type. Cheng Yan narrowed his mesmerizing eyes at the camera and gave a soft scoff. "Someone obedient, beautiful, and who won't disappear without a word." Then, at a disaster relief event where people from all walks of life came to help, someone carrying a camera happened to catch a glimpse of the proud, noble young actor kneeling on one knee beside a sleeping girl in the reporters' lounge. His voice was restrained as he asked, "How about giving me a chance?" He paused, then said hoarsely, "I'll be good." - The year Lu Jiayi started school, she fell in love at first sight with a senior whose eyes shone like peach blossoms. Later, after asking around, she learned that he had vanished without a trace. Until one late night during her part-time shift at a cafe, someone pushed open the door. She looked up and saw a young man wearing faded jeans and a white T-shirt. He searched every pocket he had, but found nothing. His mesmerizing eyes were fixed on... the strawberry mousse at the counter. Smitten by his looks, Lu Jiayi handed him the strawberry mousse. "Here, it's on me." The man raised an eyebrow. Lu Jiayi took a deep breath and gathered her courage. "Could I have your WeChat in exchange?" Lu Jiayi's roommates all knew she liked a man: tall, long-legged, with mesmerizing eyes, and good for nothing but his looks. When they heard she had added him on WeChat, one roommate looked horrified. "Yiyi, be careful. If this guy isn't a scammer, I'll let you kick my head around like a ball!" Lu Jiayi: ... Later, her roommate tried to distract her by taking her to see a newly released art film. As soon as the movie started, the roommate exclaimed, "Damn, when did the entertainment industry get someone this stunning?" On screen, the young man wore faded jeans, his mesmerizing eyes dark and alluring. Her roommate became an instant fan. Lu Jiayi clenched her hands in her lap, expressionless. "You're right." Roommate: ? What did I say? Lu Jiayi: ... Scammer. - Lu Jiayi was helping film a documentary as a reporter when a partner spotted the wallpaper on her phone and teased her. "Are you a fan?" She shook her head. She wasn't a fan. She was secretly in love with a star, but didn't dare enter his world. But on the day she was about to give up, the star came to her. And she was dead drunk. In a daze, she stared at the beauty mark on his collarbone, right in front of her... Then bit down. Theme: Building a harmonious socialist society.
