Rose Fever [Showbiz]

Wen Zheng has been an actress for three years. What made her famous wasn't her talent or her looks, but her scandals. Spoiled heiress, nepotism hire, extravagant entourage: those are her labels, and she has countless haters because of them. Wen Zheng feels wronged. None of those labels fit her. The real culprit behind it all is her older brother, Wen Song. When she rebelled and entered show business, Wen Song not only laid down a long list of rules for her, but also sent a crowd of people to take care of her whenever she joined a production. Her entourage was bigger than the director's. Over time, the rumors just kept growing. To get back at her brother, Wen Zheng secretly signed up for a dating show. Her thinking was simple: If you won't let me date, I'll talk about romance all over the show just to piss you off. * Zhou Muchi, the head of Jinyue Group, is known for his decisive methods, but he just so happens to have an elegant, chaste face. A video of him getting out of a car went viral. Dressed in a black suit, he looked refined and aloof, outshining every male star in show business. No one expected him to appear on a dating show. Even Wen Zheng was surprised. Zhou Muchi was her brother Wen Song's sworn enemy, and they had been at each other's throats since their school days. But what shocked her even more was that Zhou Muchi chose her as the person he was interested in. She immediately got an idea. In a corner without cameras, Wen Zheng suggested, "I hear you can't stand my brother Wen Song. What a coincidence, neither can I. Want to team up?" Zhou Muchi: "Sure." Wen Zheng, who had prepared countless arguments to persuade him: ??? * Gossip-loving netizens heard Wen Zheng was joining a dating show and prepared to watch the drama unfold. Her haters were sharpening their knives. Instead, they saw Zhou Muchi showering Wen Zheng with attention. - Mr. Zhou, blink twice if you're being held hostage. - Boring. Everyone's just playing along with the heiress. When Wen Song heard the news, he was so furious he nearly died and went straight to the show. "Stay away from my sister!" "All right." Then, on the show, Zhou Muchi took Wen Zheng's hand and competed for the chance to go on dates with her. * After the show aired, Wen Zheng's reputation transformed. She gained countless fans, and her pairing with Zhou Muchi became popular too. It took netizens just one month to go from disliking them to loving them. - Zhengzheng is so cute and charming. Anyone who doesn't like her has terrible taste! - The Warm Porridge couple is so good! - I refuse to believe Mr. Zhou's acting is that good. Those feelings are obviously real! When filming ended, Wen Zheng decided they should part ways. But Zhou Muchi pulled her into that deserted corner. "You got to decide how it started, but not how it ends." His gaze was dark. "I came here for you from the start." - To him, the rose was dazzling and beautiful, an addiction he never wanted to give up. Reading guide: 1. Dazzling rose x aloof beauty 2. Fictional setting, no real-life inspirations. Please don't overanalyze. 3. The male lead is faithful and respectful. Guaranteed sweet. [Upcoming contemporary romance]: "Sweet Lychee Kiss [Showbiz]" Bo Li became famous all over the internet for two reasons. First, her superb acting won her award after award. Second, she was born with a beautiful face that earned her fans just by sitting there. Fu Jichuan has an aloof air and is known as the ice flower of the entertainment industry. He's won countless awards, but paparazzi call him the most boring man around. There's no other reason: His private life is so uneventful that even the paparazzi can't be bothered to follow him. Then Bo Li and Fu Jichuan shared a look at an awards ceremony, and it became the most popular moment in fan-made couple edits. Their pairing also topped the poll for the most heartbreaking almost-couple. Unfortunately, when a reporter asked Bo Li if there was a chance she and Fu Jichuan might work together, she replied coolly, "We aren't close. We won't work together." * A variety show announced its guest lineup and shocked the entire internet: Bo Li and Fu Jichuan were both on the list. - Didn't you say you wouldn't work together? - The couple I ship is finally in the same frame! - Can the shippers wake up? They don't even know each other. But on the show, Fu Jichuan knew Bo Li's favorite fruit, knew she was allergic to peanuts, and even knew she got grumpy when she woke up. His familiar, attentive behavior was completely different from how he treated the other guests. Netizens: ??? Shippers: They aren't close? I'm about to start making things up! * The two had the kind of chemistry you'd expect on a dating show, but sadly, things never progressed any further. Netizens sighed, and the shippers wept. Until, after a film awards ceremony, a reporter photographed Bo Li getting into a car. A hand reached out from inside, its prominent knuckles clearly belonging to a man. That night, the topic shot to the top of the trending list. The shippers quickly identified the hand as possibly Fu Jichuan's and posted several photos as proof. They were promptly mocked by everyone. - Stop being delusional. They haven't been in touch since the show ended. - Shippers still can't let go? That's just sad... - Looks like the rumors were true. Bo Li really does have connections. Then Bo Li posted a statement. @Bo Li: My driver, @Fu Jichuan Seconds later @Fu Jichuan: Is it illegal to pick up my wife after work? Netizens: Wait, was I the one being delusional??? [Upcoming contemporary romance]: "Drowning Summer" Cong Xin was raised from childhood to be the heir of the Cong family. Every word and gesture of hers was a model of perfection. She wore qipaos year-round, poised and impeccable, polished and cool. But no one knew that beneath that perfect mask was another side of her, bold and willful. One night, while enjoying herself at a bar, Cong Xin happened to see her fiance with a woman on each arm. "I like someone fun. My fiancee is a robot." Cong Xin's red lips curled. She had no problem finding a new fiance. * The end of the engagement meant that the partnership between their families would also fall apart, so Cong Xin began looking for a new business partner. Pei Shuli, the president of Yaojing Group, was known as the most difficult man in Rongcheng to win over. He became her target. Cong Xin brought a thick proposal with her, ready to discuss it with Pei Shuli in detail. But the cool, handsome man just smiled. "I agree to the partnership." Cong Xin was startled. "Mr. Pei, don't you want to look at the proposal first?" Pei Shuli shook his head. "No need. But I have one condition." Cong Xin asked, puzzled, "What condition?" Pei Shuli smiled. "Miss Cong becomes my fiancee." Cong Xin: ? * Late one night, Fang Zezhou hurried over to see Cong Xin, only for Pei Shuli to answer the door. He asked in shock, "Shuli, what are you doing here?" Pei Shuli frowned. "Is it strange for me to be at my fiancee's home?" Fang Zezhou: ??? The next day, news that Cong Xin and Pei Shuli were engaged spread all over Rongcheng. "Isn't Pei Shuli going after his friend's fiancee a bit much?" "I never thought a big shot could be a love rival, either." Cong Xin watched the show with an amused smile and asked, "Should we clear up the rumors? They could hurt Mr. Pei's reputation." Pei Shuli stared at her. "It's true." Later, Cong Xin accidentally found a diary in Pei Shuli's desk drawer. It contained several love letters he had never sent. And the name on the first line was... Cong Xin. Theme: Dreams come true.
