After Marrying into a Wealthy Family with a Movie Emperor, He Fell for Me

[Please add my next novel, My Rich Boyfriend Is Pretending to Be Poor Again, to your favorites. The blurb is below.] The Gu family is on the verge of bankruptcy, and the family plans to marry Gu Ling off to wealthy movie star Qi Che in a contractual marriage in exchange for funding. Rumor has it that his prospective spouse is rich and powerful, but cold and hard-hearted. Everyone is waiting to see Gu Ling make a fool of himself. Gu Ling in his previous life: I'd rather die than give in! Gu Ling in this life: Rich, loveless, perfect marriage. . On the first day after the wedding, Gu Ling receives a post-marriage schedule from his new spouse, who treats their marriage like a business arrangement. It requires them both to get up at seven and go to bed at ten, make video calls at set times, and observe silence while eating and sleeping. Gu Ling sets ten alarms according to the schedule and follows it as punctually as if clocking in at work. But when it comes time for the video call, he doesn't know what to do. Gu Ling: "Should we add each other as friends? So we can make video calls." Qi Che: "We can use Tencent Meeting." Gu Ling: "..." . After the wedding, Gu Ling plays the part of Qi Che's loving husband. At a banquet, he entwines their fingers affectionately and adds a bunch of influential people as friends. But as soon as they're in the car on the way home: Qi Che takes out some hand sanitizer and warns him, "I'm allergic to people. Stay away from me..." Gu Ling replies considerately, "It's fine. I can stop being a person." Qi Che: "?" #Well, you certainly got my attention# . Later, the hashtag #MovieStarQiCheKissesMysteriousManUnderTheMoonlight trends online. People speculate over whether the other man is an actor or an idol, while entertainment reporters shove microphones in Qi Che's face and ask if his relationship has just been exposed. Qi Che ends the year's biggest gossip story with one sentence: "A civilian, my beloved. Thanks for your concern." . Late that night. Gu Ling points solemnly at the clock. "It's ten. We're not doing it tonight." Qi Che presses in, at the end of his patience. "...I told you already, the schedule is canceled." 1. Both are each other's first love, one-on-one, happy ending. A sweet romance focused on their relationship. Six updates a week after the novel goes premium. My next novel, My Rich Boyfriend Is Pretending to Be Poor Again, is in my profile! Everyone at Changsheng Group says the new research consultant, Gu Yin, is the textbook example of an aloof, chaste beauty, a flower on a distant mountaintop. He spends every day in the lab, distant and cold toward everyone. He looks like he has severe emotional detachment. But what torments Gu Yin is that, when night falls and all is quiet, he suffers from an overwhelming need for physical affection. He has forced himself to endure it for years. Then one night, a boss and colleagues who have long resented his lofty attitude trick him into going to a bar. He can't hold his liquor and falls into a man's arms. He sleeps more soundly than he has in years. When he wakes, he stares silently at the unfamiliar apartment ceiling and the young man beside him, whose abs form a perfect eight-pack. Lin Ran opens his QR code. "Want to be friends?" Gu Yin hesitates, adds him as a friend, and opens the transfer page. After a moment's thought, he asks, "...What's the going rate?" Lin Ran: "?" Gu Yin: "...Sorry, I don't have much experience." Realizing he's been mistaken for some kind of livestock, Lin Ran grits his back teeth and smiles a little. "First time's free." . Lin Ran has been hung up on someone for a long time. Then one night at a bar, a man with an icy, distant air falls into his arms. The whole night is so absurdly dramatic. The other man clings to him like a koala and sleeps soundly until morning. From the next day on, he inexplicably becomes Lin Ran's "client." From then on, the business elite across Haishi are baffled. Why has the Changsheng Group's rebellious young heir, Lin Ran, suddenly changed? He's dyed his hair black and given up his motorcycle. At parties, he'll take one look at his phone and leave immediately, even stripping off all his luxury brands before changing into cheap clothes. He really does look pitiful when he puts on an act. . Gu Yin sleeps well and feels great, and his research makes rapid progress. He earns a good income, too, though most of it goes to the "sleeping companion" whose circumstances are so tragic and whose finances are so strained. As soon as the project is declared a success, Gu Yin, who has offended many people by refusing to compromise, becomes expendable. Rumor has it that the executives plan to send him back to wherever he came from. On the first day the group's newly appointed president arrives, Gu Yin decides to submit his resignation. He knocks on the president's office door, then stops short when he sees the new young president behind the large, cold desk. His first thought: So that's what he looks like with his clothes on. His second thought: He's been pretending to be poor for a year. Does that count as fraud? Lin Ran walks over and returns the resignation letter to him. "The group can't do without Dr. Gu." In the blank space on the resignation letter, he writes the address and front-door code for a certain villa. "And I can't do without my sugar daddy, either." #How dare you bring up the words sugar daddy again?# #The green tea top is impossible to resist# A sweet-talking, scheming top × a world-weary, aloof beauty bottom. Younger top. The tool character gets promoted to the lead. 1. One-on-one, both each other's first love. Don't ask why, that's just how it is. 2. The top has been plotting this for a long time, while the bottom falls in love over time (?). 3. Happy ending. Theme: Reject prejudice and communicate openly
