The Award-Winning Director Helps Me Become Best Actress Again

Looking for advance readers for my next book

Contract Marriage Alliance: My Ice-Cold Nemesis Spoils Me Rotten.

“Lu Ruoxi, marrying you is purely a business deal. Don't expect me to fall for you.”

“Likewise. Miss Lin's love life has nothing to do with me.”

When they sign their contract marriage agreement, Lin Qingxue launches into a sharp-tongued tirade, her eyes full of disdain for her “high school nemesis.”

She's the vice president of Xingyao Entertainment, a haughty heiress who personally turned Ji Yuluo, the woman she's secretly loved for years, into a top-tier star.

Lu Ruoxi is the CEO of Lu Group, a cold, aloof iceberg. Back in high school, she called Lin Qingxue “ill-mannered,” and Lin has resented her ever since.

Forced to live together after the wedding, they bicker every day.

“Has Vice President Lin turned the marital home into a fan club? Ji Yuluo's merchandise takes up more space than the documents,” Lu Ruoxi says with a raised eyebrow and a cold tone.

Lin Qingxue fires back with a sneer. “That's better than turning the study into an ice cellar. Even making coffee gives off a ‘stay away from me’ vibe. You're a ten-thousand-year-old iceberg.”

Lin Qingxue thinks Lu Ruoxi hates her too, but no one knows Lu Ruoxi keeps a secret diary from high school in her drawer, filled with every little detail about her.

The chocolates and study guides sent anonymously were actually from Lu Ruoxi, but Lin mistook them for gifts from Ji Yuluo, her secret crush.

When Ji Yuluo betrays her for career opportunities, fabricates evidence, and pushes her into an abyss of online abuse, only Lu Ruoxi stands up for her, publicly exposing the two-faced woman and turning the tide.

After the crisis passes, she presses her forehead to Lin's and confesses passionately: “Lin Qingxue, when our contract expires, let's renew it for the rest of our lives.”

Later, Lu Ruoxi takes out the diary she's treasured for years, her eyes reddening slightly. “The gifts back then were from me. And I really do love you.”

Lin Qingxue is stunned. She remembers the mysterious gifts that appeared in her desk back in high school, as well as the breakfasts Lu Ruoxi quietly made without cilantro, the project proposals she stayed up all night revising, and the firm way she stood up to people while protecting Lin from drunken guests after they married...

So it turns out her ice-cold nemesis, Lu Ruoxi, loves her this deeply.
