The Trap of Innocence [Showbiz]

[Top-Tier Star x Ordinary Person | School Life | Showbiz | Mutual Secret Crush] The year she turned twelve, Fan Huan met Gu Yanze. The young man had red lips and dark eyes, with a cool, aloof air of nobility. The year she turned seventeen, Fan Huan's secret crush on him seemed destined to go nowhere. By then, he was the country's top singer, with cool, pale skin, striking brows, and a languid, distant look when he lowered his eyes. Other people smiled and envied her for having known Gu Yanze for so many years. Fan Huan smiled and nodded, hiding the fluorescent ribbon from his concert inside her book. She knew all too well that she was watching him grow more and more distant, until he was beyond her reach. - Fan Huan bravely took a step toward him, hoping to confess, but he turned around and invited a beautiful actress to appear in his self-produced music video. Her reaching tentacle paused, then slowly withdrew. On her birthday, she was at his concert, surrounded by a sea of people screaming. Golden lights crisscrossed and shifted, shining down on the stage. Countless fluorescent ribbons fluttered through the venue, falling like shooting stars. Fan Huan accepted that her dream was over and prepared to say one final goodbye to her crush. The man's cool, clear voice traveled through the microphone to every corner of the stadium. He was dressed in finery, with a defined jaw and a handsome face. --"You've ignored me for two whole months. Happy birthday, Fan Zai." Fan Huan, standing below the stage with a broken heart from her painful secret crush, unable to speak and only able to wave her light stick: "?" /A superstar is actually trying to comfort me onstage?

Blurb: [Abstinent tech tycoon x secretary who flirts without realizing it] Yu Jiang was the third secretary hired. Rumor had it that the president of the Fu Group was an acclaimed rising star among the elite: refined and aloof, with impossibly high standards for his subordinates and a reputation for being difficult to please. On the rooftop terrace at the top of the group's building, he looked toward the woman outside. Yu Jiang's satin blouse was rumpled, her lashes lowered. "Mr. Fu," Assistant Chen said, bringing him coffee. "Secretary Yu was just feeling a little whimsical and switched your cold brew for a mocha. She must be trying to win your favor. How about letting her come in?" She crouched there, looking blank and dazed, rainwater clinging to her pinned-up hair and sticking to her neck. Fu Shenlin looked up and said coolly, "Does she want to make me a mocha, or does she want to be Mrs. Fu?" When they met again, Yu Jiang had already been reassigned as an assistant to the market director, working hard to serve someone else. Surprisingly, she worked diligently without complaint, and even when the assistant repeatedly dropped hints, she never said she wanted her old secretary job back. The second time they met was outside a hotel. The sky was gloomy, and the downpour had just stopped. She had been splashed with coffee. Clutching a stack of documents, her blouse was soaked and stained, her hair was disheveled, and the hotel staff had stopped her. She was a complete mess. Fu Shenlin took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders, covering her wet blouse with his suit. "You weren't a very good secretary." "And yet you give up so easily on becoming the president's wife." Yu Jiang slowly lifted her eyes and heard him ask coolly: "My suit's dirty. Come up to A809 on the top floor tonight and make it up to me?" The glass was adorned with red wedding-paper cutouts, and the diamond ring had found its owner. Mrs. Fu, marry me. Later, no one could catch sight of a scene like this: Mrs. Fu's skin was porcelain-white, her dark hair clinging to her slender neck. A famously refined and aloof big shot lowered his head to kiss the finger wearing her diamond ring. Yu Jiang frowned. "Don't kiss my hand. It's sticky." The man gave a cold laugh, his thumb brushing over her collarbone, his voice low and dangerous. "Secretary Yu is pretty good. I never noticed before." Now, in some deserted corner, he clung to her like a leech, savoring every last drop. Reading guide: 1. [Abstinent tech tycoon x secretary who flirts without realizing it] 2.

[Marriage first, love later | Contract marriage | Married life | Pretending to be sweet to attract him, only to get caught] On the day they were supposed to register their marriage, Fu Tan Jin flew to Switzerland on a private jet to negotiate a deal, leaving her waiting. Yu Zhi Jing waited outside the civil affairs bureau for three hours, all dolled up and radiant, only to receive a notification from him that he would be delayed. On the flight back, Fu Tan Jin thought she must be utterly heartbroken, so he had his secretary order her a Kashmir sapphire as an advance apology. But the moment he walked in, the blare of Gothic heavy metal rock hit his ears. Yu Zhi Jing's wild, teased-out hair was impossible to miss, and her makeup was smoky. She was dancing in a trance with drumsticks in hand, completely absorbed in the music. The young rapper by the door said with a teasing lilt, "You're so cool, Second Princess. You've got such a great sense of rhythm! Mr. Fu must be blind!" Hearing this, Yu Zhi Jing became interested, stopped what she was doing, and propped her chin on her hand like she'd found a kindred spirit. "His taste is awful. You think so too?" Fu Tan Jin had just walked in and caught them sharing this moment of mutual understanding, along with Yu Zhi Jing's wild hair. He froze, the jewelry box tilted at a 45-degree angle in his hand: "?" "He fell for my sweet, delicate act, only to discover my wild hair. What do I do?" "There's a little pig at home who can make his heart flutter a thousand times over."
