[Spoiled and oblivious, but doting to a fault, popular idol actor seme X fierce to everyone else but super sweet to his seme, lovesick and romance-obsessed lead singer uke]
Actor Xie Yu has always led a dazzling, picture-perfect life. He's not only a rising star of the film industry, but also has a one-of-a-kind "soulmate" in a world blindly devoted to the idea of "meant-to-be" love.
But Xie Yu suddenly discovers that his soulmate is a cheating, self-pitying scumbag with a saintly facade.
He defies public prejudice and insists on making their breakup public, even if it means being branded a "deviant." This plunges him into a storm of controversy and attracts countless opportunists eager to topple the actor from his pedestal. However...
Fair-weather fans drop Xie Yu as their spokesperson, only to discover he's turning down offers of even better opportunities;
A rival snatches up Xie Yu's role, only to see him beaming with a trophy in hand;
Haters accuse Xie Yu of having improper relationships with a bunch of rich second-generation heirs, only to find his Weibo suddenly filling up with verified accounts belonging to directors of famous companies...
Xie Yu, the flamboyant young master of a wealthy family, has always done as he pleases. Yet he has a soft spot for his childhood friend who left without a word. He thinks of himself as the world's best big brother, never noticing the love and longing in his "little brother's" eyes.
When Sheng Lanshan confesses to him, Xie Yu panics:
"I only think of you as my little bro... Wait, you can't cry, you little menace!"
Not long after...
When Xie Yu confesses to him, Sheng Lanshan is at a loss:
"Y-You said you only thought of me as your little brother, didn't you?"
"Right. Written as little brother, pronounced as my little child bride."
#I finally understand how much I love you#
*Bonus scene*
A certain famous hot-tempered lead singer suddenly appears on Xie Yu's livestream, snuggles into the man's arms, and smiles sweetly and obediently:
"Brother Xiaoyu, what do you want for dinner?"
A certain famous, haughty actor kisses Sheng Lanshan until he can barely catch his breath, then holds the little one and smiles tenderly, teasingly:
"You."
?!
The stars' public image crumbles before the stunned eyes of both fanbases:
"Damn, I'm a four-year fan and only just noticed LAN has dimples!"
"Waaah, I can't believe God Xie can be this gentle, I'm dying, "
But they decide to forgive them, just as a father would:
"Visit the Yu Gong Moves Shan Super Topic and discover a breathtaking love that surpasses soulmates."
Reader's guide:

2. The soulmate concept comes from Western fandom. The author's note in the first chapter explains my personal take on it.
3. The seme has an ex-boyfriend and is not a virgin.

"Finding a Wife in a Beloved-by-All Novel (Entertainment Industry)"
[Straightforward, stunning beauty seme X proud, pure-hearted CEO uke]
Luo Shaochuan transmigrates into a novel about a beloved-by-all star in the entertainment industry, as a minor character destined to be cannon fodder. In the original story, he is the protagonist uke's fiance. The seemingly innocent yet actually man-eating-shark protagonist uke frames him, and while the protagonist is showered with love, Luo goes from a top-tier rich heir to a laughingstock thrown out of his home.
To fulfill the original owner's wish for face-slapping, Luo Shaochuan, a legendary star of the film industry in his previous life, decides to return to his old profession. He'll trample the protagonist uke, beat down the backup suitors, find himself a beautiful wife, and live happily ever after, making those simps die of jealousy.
But he never expected that these industry bigwigs wouldn't get angry at all. Instead, they all rush to be his "beautiful wife."
That famous wastrel and good-for-nothing from the Luo family is making his debut!
The news sets countless onlookers in an uproar, and they all boycott the industry getting another menace.
After the protagonist uke plays the victim to his backup suitors, the award-winning actor refuses to work with Luo, the top-tier star shuns sharing the stage with him, and the director angrily refuses to bow to capital...
But when they see the peerlessly beautiful man deliver a breathtaking performance on camera, everyone blushes and cries in unison:
HI, WIFE!
The beautiful man's gaze turns icy.
...We mean, HI! HUSBAND!!
#Bonus scene#
Faced with a jealous love triangle involving the former backup suitors, and even a villain trying to seize him by force, Luo Shaochuan uses his beautiful face to deliver a vivid three-part rejection:
"No. Never. Get lost."
Only the original novel's protagonist seme, his adopted younger brother Luo Shaoyan, still treats him coldly, constantly getting so angry his whole face turns red:
"I don't want to be your little brother!"
Luo Shaochuan looks at his gorgeous, well-proportioned little brother:
"Then, do you want to be my wife?"
"...Y-You said it, not me! ////"
