The Allure of Music

[Please check out my upcoming novel, A Top-Tier Star's Beautiful BE Romance]

1. Campus belle Yun Yi is sexy and beautiful, with a sweet, resonant voice. She's known as "the voice of first love."

She has no shortage of admirers at college, but she has never accepted anyone's advances. No one knows she's been secretly in love with someone all along: Lu Chen.

Lu Chen is cool, immaculate, and aloof, and he's famous for being hard to pursue.

Although they belong to the same gaming club, Yun Yi only occasionally joins him for five-player ranked games, quietly keeping him company. She never dares to reveal her feelings.

2. One day, while playing a game, a younger girl she'd met in-game suddenly came to her crying over relationship troubles.

To comfort her, Yun Yi decided to share a secret:

"I used to have a crush on someone, too.

The way he looked at me, it was like I'd been struck..."

Just then, Lu Chen entered the younger girl's room and sat down with a stony face, hearing half the story.

At a gaming club dinner over the weekend, they talked about secret crushes. Yun Yi said the person she'd once liked had been a little aloof.

"Aloof?" Lu Chen spoke up. "So he was bad-tempered, narcissistic, and arrogant?"

Yun Yi: ...?

You really don't have to put yourself down like that.

3. Later, Lu Chen brought the younger girl to campus. By chance, a guy was downstairs with a huge bouquet of roses, confessing to Yun Yi.

Lu Chen sneered, took the younger girl's hand, and pointed. "Go bring your sister-in-law over here."

Yun Yi: ...

Onlookers: What the hell?!

Two aloof beauties got together.

Little Scene:

After Yun Yi and Lu Chen had been together for a while, she realized they'd skipped the whole confession step.

So, while playing a game, she discussed it with the younger girl:

Maybe I should just confess. I've liked him for so long, it'd be a shame never to make the first move.

There was a pause on the other end. Then a familiar voice answered, "I don't see why not."

Yun Yi: ...?

1. The entertainment industry was rocked by a news story.

[Film Emperor Xie Ran kneels on one knee to lift the hem of his old love Zhang Ruo's dress.]

The once-sensational "Xie-Zhang romance" swept across every forum in an instant.

After digging around for a while, everyone realized:

Holy crap, what a beautiful BE romance. I'm screaming!

Xie Ran reached the peak of his career as soon as he debuted. Handsome and talented, he'd won countless awards, yet he was rebellious and unruly. Defying his agency and fans, he embarked on a passionate romance at the height of his fame.

At the time, Zhang Ruo was just an unknown acting student. She became famous overnight because of the relationship, and was insulted, threatened, and attacked. Yet she remained cool and composed, declaring that she wouldn't give up on love.

No one had believed in them from the start, but the two still stayed together for four years.

Just as Xie Ran's fans were preparing to surrender and even congratulate the couple, news broke that they'd suddenly split up.

2. After the breakup, their BE was so complete that...

They never mentioned each other.

They never appeared on the same stage or even at the same event. At award ceremonies, one would leave just as the other arrived.

They couldn't even mention the title of the film that had brought them together, Life Is Like a Summer Flower, which had won awards back then.

Good heavens, every painful blow felt like it had been dipped in sugar before piercing the fans' hearts.

Fans went wild digging up videos of the two from six or seven years earlier, when they were together. They screamed over how sweet and heartbreaking it was, desperately hoping the two would get back together.

"Only Zhang Ruo could make Xie Ran kneel to lift her dress."

But the newly crowned Best Actress Zhang Ruo's team soon graciously responded: "It was an unexpected mishap caused by a staff error in arranging the order of entrances. We thank him for his gentlemanly conduct. Reconciliation is impossible."

In her response, Xie Ran wasn't even worth mentioning by name.

Fans were heartbroken, but kept shipping them through their tears.

#Little Scene:

One day, a clip from a variety show suddenly surfaced online.

Zhang Ruo had just finished a show task and was dragging her half-meter-long gown down a narrow alley when she happened to run into Xie Ran, who had just arrived.

As they passed each other, Xie Ran stepped on Zhang Ruo's train.

Zhang Ruo stopped.

Xie Ran clasped her wrist. "It wasn't an accident. I've been waiting for you for two hours."

Zhang Ruo pried his fingers off one by one, her voice ice-cold. "Sorry, I have a boyfriend."

She turned and walked away, leaving Xie Ran standing there, heartbroken.

Fans: This is so painful, my heart aches. Please, give Film Emperor Xie a chance!

Later, news broke that Zhang Ruo had broken up.

Fans: Xie Ran, are you going for it or not?! If you don't, we'll look down on you!

Not long after, someone used a drone to capture Zhang Ruo and Xie Ran in a room at a private gathering. He had her pinned against the wall, and the two were kissing passionately.
