I Used My Money to Win Over the Actor

I'll upload the unfinished, unedited part tomorrow.

When Bian Jing was seventeen, he stood on a rooftop on a stormy day and shouted:

"My dream is to become a director!"

Almost the whole school heard him.

But only he heard the words that came after:

"And Shen Heyu."

-

Time passed, and Bian Jing never achieved his dream.

Instead, he reluctantly inherited the sprawling Bian family business.

The impression he left on everyone was of a man in a suit, holding a black umbrella in his right hand, with a plain ring on the index finger of his left.

Cool and aloof, with an air of utter superiority.

Until a headline in the entertainment industry:

"Rising traffic starlet and new Best Actor Shen Heyu share an 'epic gaze.'"

From then on,

The refined and arrogant President Bian changed careers and became a newcomer chasing fame.

He bought his way onto the production.

And not just any investment: he did it at the level of the industry's founding masters.

-

The news spread quickly.

Many thought Bian Jing had lost his mind. Instead of inheriting the family business, he was bored enough to become an actor.

Bian Jing just smiled, a hint of playful mockery in his eyes, though his gaze remained fixed on someone else in the corner.

"My dream was to become a director, so I could work with someone like Best Actor Shen. But..."

"But that's a shame."

Shen Heyu lowered his head, his expression dark, and cut him off. "You can't become a director, and you can't keep me by your side."

"..."

Then one day,

The staff heard that Bian Jing had gotten into a fight with someone at a bar.

When they all rushed over, they were concerned about whether the well-connected President Bian had been hurt or bruised. None of them expected to see this:

The aloof, cold Bian Jing was curled up in the arms of the new Best Actor, Shen Heyu, his head pressed against Shen Heyu's chest.

His voice was so gentle it could make anyone melt. "Didn't you ask me about my dream?"

"I have one more. It's you."

"!!!"

The whole crew stared in shock for two seconds, then shut the door again.

-

The day Shen Heyu won the Best Actor award again, everyone thought it was only to be expected.

But the host teased him: "You won this for President Bian, didn't you?"

Shen Heyu smiled, radiant beneath the stage lights.

"Yes. Mostly, I have to keep my wife happy."

Host: "..."

That night, Weibo exploded.

After Constantly Courting Death, the Villainous Male Side Character Became Everyone's Darling

Yun Suiqiu knew from childhood that he lived inside a book and had been cast as the villainous male side character.

His family would go bankrupt and all be sent to prison because they humiliated the male lead when he was young.

But after waking up, all he could remember from the book was a seven-character maxim that appeared when the male lead brought ruin to his enemies:

Handsome, influential, and tall-bridged.

Oh, and he also knew the male lead was a domineering hero.

Yun Suiqiu: "..."

What a trash book. What a waste of my time!

But Yun Suiqiu didn't know this book started as an urban power-progression story before veering into a romance between men in the latter half, a turn that even eight horses couldn't pull it back from.

The kind with plenty of explicit scenes.

The Domineering Hero Checklist

Domineering Hero No. 1: Born into an influential family, upright and dependable. (Yes)

Domineering Hero No. 2: Pitiful background, insecure, but exceptionally handsome. (Yes)

Domineering Hero No. 3: Particularly tall nose bridge. (Yes)

Domineering Hero No. N+1: A servant who acts one way to your face and another behind your back. (No)

Reason for elimination: Low status and ugly.

Yun Suiqiu wrote that last reason with a guilty conscience.

Yun Suiqiu took his checklist and provoked people all along the way, until everyone on it had been "tormented."

Yun Suiqiu: I wasn't trying to win them over. I was just teaching them a little lesson.

The domineering heroes he'd "tormented," their eyes glowing green: Qiuqiu.

Selfish, spoiled, weak, delicate, afraid of death, sweet-tongued but treacherous...

All the traits Wu Jin hated most were concentrated in one person.

But even Wu Jin never imagined he'd end up in the young master's bed, calling the thunder-frightened young master's name over and over by his ear.

"Qiuqiu, I'm here."

- I had long grown used to the darkness,

never expecting a beam of moonlight to suddenly fall on me.

The bright, flawless moon rose for me alone,

so naturally, I could no longer bear to live without it.
