Blurb:

Luo Yushi is the laziest of all the movie emperors. With great acting skills and a powerful background, he may not even film one project a year, but he's diligent about following celebrities on his private account.

Unfortunately, whoever he follows ends up disgraced, and his rapid change of favorites has entertainment companies on edge.

One day, Luo Yushi updated his private account with a single [sapling] emoji.

Everyone checked in below, speculating about how this new favorite would spectacularly crash and burn within a month.

But a month passed, and Luo Yushi's private account remained silent.

Then, on the day Luo Yushi reclaimed his movie emperor trophy, countless cameras captured him clutching the award and rushing toward top-tier star Lu Yao, who had his arms open below the stage. Photos of the two kissing spread like wildfire across the internet.

That night, Luo Yushi changed his profile bio to: [An utterly ordinary person who successfully became a fan's favorite :) ]

The netizens accustomed to watching Luo Yushi's celebrity crushes crash and burn: ...Was I the one whose favorite got exposed?

Conscientious top-tier star seme x an actor uke whose every favorite gets disgraced. Younger seme, 1v1, HE.

Note: The seme has already completed his career transition before they start dating. All characters are fictional. Updated daily. The setting is fictional, so please don't compare it to real life.

[Includes scenes of the movie emperor playing supporting roles. Please skip if this bothers you.]

[Upcoming novel: Please Stop Acting Like My Stand-In]

What do you do when your husband gets concussed a month after you register your marriage?

Xie Rangchen's answer: Make the best of it.

He turned down a variety show so his husband could rest, but He Chengchuan's eyes filled with tears. "We're already married, but you still won't take me out to meet people? Are you so afraid he'll see me?"

Xie Rangchen: ???

He Chengchuan said indignantly, "I know you've always treated me as He Zhou's stand-in, but I'm the one who married you!"

Xie Rangchen: ...Isn't He Zhou your former name?

He Chengchuan covered his ears. "It's fake! I won't listen! I'm going on this couples' variety show no matter what!"

Xie Rangchen was so angry he was speechless. You won't listen? Fine, go embarrass yourself. :)

He Chengchuan knew Xie Rangchen married him because his face looked remarkably like He Zhou's.

After waking up from a car accident, he heard Xie Rangchen call him "He Zhou" again.

Alarm bells went off in He Chengchuan's head!

Clutching their little red marriage certificate, he vowed to become such an excellent stand-in that Xie Rangchen wouldn't want to kick him out, then find a chance to replace He Zhou for good!

The audience watching the couples' variety show was stunned. Was this really He Chengchuan, the music prodigy who used to act like he owned the world?

He Chengchuan was domineering and overbearing?

On camera, He Chengchuan could be a perfect host and a great cook. In the middle of the night, he came home with an apple tree. "Chenchen should eat an apple every day, so I bought him a tree."

Audience: Fair enough. The word for a single apple and a whole tree sounds the same.

He Chengchuan was proud and confident?

On the show, Xie Rangchen fed a bite of pastry to a three-year-old. That night, He Chengchuan cried, threw a tantrum, and threatened to hang himself. "You fed him! You don't love me anymore!!!" He got Xie Rangchen to feed him dinner by hand.

Audience: Wow, are you in kindergarten? But why are we even more jealous?

Pairing: He Chengchuan (He Zhou) x Xie Rangchen, seme and uke.

The seme is a singer, the uke is an actor. No real-life references, so please don't compare them to real people. qwq

Can We Keep the Kid Who Usurped the Throne? (Both Reborn)

Blurb:

Mu Qing died of illness on a stormy night when the political situation was in turmoil in his previous life.

A month later, his beloved disciple, Prince An, usurped the throne from his imperial cousin.

Even on his deathbed, he couldn't understand how he, born into a distinguished Hanlin family, with a mother who was the current empress's sister, and raised on etiquette and Confucian teachings from childhood, could have personally taught a brat who would usurp the throne. He had been named the crown prince's study companion as soon as he began his education!

Then he was reborn, back in the year before he met the little brat.

He swore to himself that this time, even if he saw the palace servants bully the little brat to death, he wouldn't so much as look his way. Absolutely not!

Later, Mu Qing expressionlessly pinched the young brat's cheek.

If I raise him properly this time... perhaps I can still save him?

And later still...

Mu Qing stormed out of the palace, clutching his lower back, with the brat following behind him, humble and deferential but beaming with happiness.

Mu Qing: There's no saving him. Let it all burn.
