The Star Who Makes Hearts Flutter

[Signed for a print edition. Follow the progress on Weibo: @Ban Xiaojiuya] [My next book, Applying to Enter Your Heart, is open for follows] [Gentle, secretly flirtatious voice-acting star x quirky, top-tier star author] The radio drama adaptation of the hit novel I Once Heard Your Name was officially announced recently. Everyone was guessing who would voice the novel's male lead, Chen Weilun. Scrolling down, they found this in the second row of the voice cast: [Chen Weilun: voiced by Bu Jian Nanshan] The fan community for the author Sanshui Yu exploded in an instant. Everyone in the industry knew that Sanshui Yu was a fan of Bu Jian Nanshan. When she first started writing, aside from making money, one of her goals was to become famous enough to hire Bu Jian Nanshan to voice the male lead in her novel. - Yu Yingmiao was an ordinary beauty who'd made a fortune writing online and moved into a luxury apartment in the city center. A new neighbor recently moved in next door. He had no consideration for anyone else and threw parties at home every day, making it impossible for her to write. Unable to take it anymore, Yu Yingmiao knocked on his door. When it opened, a tall young man with striking, refined features stood there. The moment their eyes met, the curses on Yu Yingmiao's tongue died away. He turned off the music and apologized to her. Just those two words nearly made Yu Yingmiao's knees buckle. She felt his voice challenging Bu Jian Nanshan's place at the very top of her heart! Her neighbor Shen Shunan inspired Yu Yingmiao's new novel. To meet her writing quota, they started seeing each other regularly. But things got off to a rough start: Yu Yingmiao blundered repeatedly, and she and Shen Shunan became bickering neighbors who couldn't stand each other. That was certainly not how a sweet romance should go. She thought the story was doomed to end in tragedy, but after knowing Shen Shunan for 99 days, Yu Yingmiao somehow ended up dating him. After they got together, Yu Yingmiao couldn't help recommending her idol, Bu Jian Nanshan, to Shen Shunan. Right in front of him, she used her alternate account to confess her love under Bu Jian Nanshan's Weibo post: [Nanshan, darling, I love you!] After she posted it, the man beside her, who'd been silent the whole time, suddenly took her phone. His voice was strained with emotion. "Say that again." "?" Before she could react, Shen Shunan pulled Yu Yingmiao into his arms and whispered in her ear, "Confessing online isn't very sincere. Why not tell me in person?" Then that familiar, cool voice of Bu Jian Nanshan sounded by her ear. "Don't forget to call me darling, Sanshui Yu." [Bonus scene] After getting married, Sanshui Yu wrote a short story so sweet it made your teeth ache, chronicling her and her husband's happy everyday life. Not long afterward, the story got a radio drama adaptation, with Bu Jian Nanshan voicing the male lead again. Sanshui Yu's readers teased that Bu Jian Nanshan was practically her exclusive male lead voice. Neither of them responded. It wasn't until the day the radio drama ended that Bu Jian Nanshan posted on Weibo. [I'm honored to be her leading man. Thank you all for loving our story. My wife works so hard on her writing. @FairySanshuiYu] Fans and readers: What???!!! - 1. Both are each other's first and only. Happy ending, six-year age gap. 2. Inspired by imagination, not based on real people. Please don't assume otherwise. 3. Come watch the dramatic identity reveal! 4. And please support my husband's new book next door, Summer Lu's Secret Marriage in the Entertainment Industry: a secretly jealous, no-nonsense movie emperor x a self-indulgent, anti-hustle pretty boy. Note: The male lead changes his voice to suit each character, so his voice sounds different from his everyday speaking voice. The heroine not recognizing him is not a plot hole. -- My next book, Applying to Enter Your Heart, is open for follows~ The Ye and Xu families arranged a marriage between their eldest daughter and the Xu family's eldest son, Xu Nanhe, generations ago. But just before the engagement, the eldest daughter asked to cancel it. Xu Nanhe was a rising business magnate in Qinggang, handsome and gentle as jade, yet ruthless and decisive in business, feared by everyone. The Ye parents were too scared to face Xu Nanhe after their eldest daughter broke off the engagement. The man at the tea table simply sipped his tea at a leisurely pace, the little cup looking like a toy in his hand. He lifted his eyes, his dark gaze inscrutable. "It seems the Ye family has more than one daughter." Everyone present froze. The Ye family did indeed have another daughter: their second daughter, Ye Tingzhi, who had been rebellious and unruly since childhood and was not favored by her parents. - Xu Nanhe had once returned to Qinggang University at its invitation to give a lecture. The venue had been packed, and almost everyone at Qing University knew who he was. The campus belle, Ye Tingzhi, had a distinctive personality. In her third year, she formed a band. At their first performance, someone noticed that Xu Nanhe, who had never been interested in events like this, had unexpectedly shown up in the front row. After the performance, a young man confessed his feelings to Ye Tingzhi and gave her flowers. Amid the commotion, Xu Nanhe appeared at her side and drew her gently into his arms. Looking at the young man, Xu Nanhe rejected him on Ye Tingzhi's behalf. "Sorry, she can't accept your feelings." The young man was undeterred. "Why? What gives you the right to decide for her?" Xu Nanhe smiled. In front of everyone, he said each word clearly: "Because she and I are protected by marriage law." That night, Ye Tingzhi became just as much a topic of campus conversation as Xu Nanhe. When they got home after dark, Ye Tingzhi angrily accused Xu Nanhe of breaking their premarital agreement. But he held the back of her head and kissed the corner of her mouth, murmuring hoarsely, "I'm the one breaking our agreement." - Later, Ye Tingzhi discovered that this business marriage, which she'd thought was just an exchange of interests, was not as simple as she had imagined. Xu Nanhe had been the one moving the pieces all along. "I wasn't settling for second best. If it couldn't be you, then it wouldn't be anyone else." You were always my first choice. * Unruly, rebellious band vocalist x business tycoon who's been plotting this for a long time 1. Both are each other's first and only. Eight-year age gap. 2. The male lead has no romantic feelings for the heroine's older sister. The engagement was only a verbal agreement. Theme: If you work hard, your dreams can come true.
