You're Just a Tool, That's All [Showbiz]

This novel will be completed with a reverse V. The paid chapters start at Chapter 22. Thank you, everyone! Xu Yixing was cheated on by his boyfriend. The scumbag said shamelessly, "Get a grip. She's related to the Lu family, the Lu family that even I have to suck up to. Do you get it? Just do as I say, and I'll treat you well." Xu Yixing wasn't about to meekly obey. He broke things off with the scumbag on the spot. His agent tactfully told him, "No one can save you after you offend Young Master Shen. Unless you have an even more powerful backer, the kind who can crush Young Master Shen with one step." Not long afterward, a young star bailed on a new variety show Xu Yixing was joining, so Lu Xuan was invited as a last-minute replacement. Xu Yixing turned to his agent and asked, "Is Lu Xuan powerful enough?" His agent: "??? Why don't you try and see if he'll even talk to you?" Everyone knew Lu Xuan wasn't just a hot, award-winning actor in the film and television world. He was also the next heir to the Lu family. He was handsome and graceful, but cold and distant, with an air that kept everyone at arm's length. Countless people had tried to catch his eye and failed. But thinking about the scumbag's arrogance, Xu Yixing couldn't let it go. You want to climb the social ladder? Then I'll stand even higher than you, somewhere you can never reach! He had no idea where he got the nerve, but in the middle of the night, he knocked on Actor Lu's door. The door slowly opened. The ridiculously handsome man gave him an impassive once-over and said coolly, "The producer's room is on the other side." Xu Yixing: "..." What kind of person do you take me for? I just came to make a little small talk! Never mind, you're only a tool I'm using to get revenge. There's no point getting mad at a tool! A few months later, Xu Yixing showed up at the scumbag's engagement party with his arm linked through a man's, head held high. He smiled triumphantly when he saw the scumbag's ashen face. Then he turned and met the man's narrowed eyes. Lu Xuan: "You went to all that trouble to get close to me just to get back at someone else? What do you take me for?" Xu Yixing: "..." Okay, sorry. I was just using you as a tool, that's all. Hey, sir, calm down and let go of me! #I thought you were a tool, but you thought I was your true love# A lighthearted, fluffy story written with complete abandon. It's not long, and everything serves the romance, so don't get hung up on the logic. One-on-one romance, with an older male lead. Theme: Life may have its cloudy days, but it should still be full of positive energy.
