Story blurb

● Lovesick, troublesome fox-like bad boy x dramatic rabbit-like girl pretending to be calm

● Two top-tier stars / mutual secret crushes / they choose each other / guaranteed sweetness!

In college, Su Yili had someone she secretly kept in her heart: Cen Ye.

He was a famous singer-songwriter at the conservatory of music, bold and eye-catching, with a brilliant future ahead and a halo all around him.

People with secret crushes tend to be sensitive. Back then, she was an unknown actress at the film academy who had never acted in a single production.

So when she saw his dark eyes glance casually her way, polite yet distant, all she could do was nervously greet him as a stranger: "Senior."

Su Yili secretly engineered countless chance encounters, letting her feelings grow wildly, but she never got past calling him "Senior," too afraid to take a step forward. She could only record her love in words no one else would ever see:

You will never know that I'm in love with you.

-

On the eve of her birthday, she bought two opera tickets and took the initiative to invite Cen Ye.

He agreed, but that day she waited outside the theater only to be stood up, and to watch the tickets expire.

-

They met again years later on a variety show. By then, they were both top-tier stars, each too famous to be overshadowed by the other.

On the show, everyone gossiped about whether Cen Ye's smash hit, I Like You, was inspired by someone, and whether he'd written it for a particular person.

Cen Ye didn't answer. He leaned lazily against his chair, his gaze passing over the camera and settling quietly on Su Yili.

-

Su Yili felt that her life hadn't gone smoothly. She'd spent more than twenty years alone, weathered career setbacks, sunk to rock bottom, and felt that he would never know how she felt.

But that day, the man who had always been carefree and proud had tears in his eyes as he held her like she was the whole world. He spoke softly in her ear:

"I didn't know you had a crush on me, too."

-A chaotic, sweet romance. They're both already top-tier stars. There's not much showbiz content, and this isn't a conventional entertainment-industry story. Just relax and enjoy their love story. Stay or go as you please; hopefully we'll meet again in the next book.

Hear Your Heartbeat

★ Academy of Sciences algorithm engineer x visual communication designer // Their intentions are clear

★ Clearheaded, self-serving "heartbreaker" x flirtatious lovesick type. One seems to have moved on; the other says he has but keeps clinging on. A high school crush comes true / second chance romance in the city / not a younger man, he's older

"He's waiting for her to soar high and never fall."

-

On the night a typhoon hit, they took shelter from the rain in the same place.

A friend took the chance to introduce them, but before they could speak, Tan Yingchuan handed over a towel. "Long time no see, Zhaozhao."

Their friend was completely confused. "Wait, you two know each other?"

But Ye Shuyin didn't even look at him. Raindrops slid from her forehead to her temples, and her red lips parted as if she had no choice but to respond. "Yeah. He's like a younger brother."

His grip on the towel suddenly tightened. He looked at Ye Shuyin, his eyes deep, reflecting the stormy night on the island.

After several rounds of drinks, Tan Yingchuan blocked her as she tried to leave.

She raised her eyes to him, her gaze rippling but calm. "Excuse me."

He moved closer, and she backed away step by step. His warm fingertips traced the path of the raindrops, stirring up memories of the past.

The tightly shut door shut out all the astonished stares.

"Do you know what they called me when they found out you kissed me?"

Tan Yingchuan's voice was mocking. He didn't mind making her remember every detail.

In those wild, carefree days, she hadn't called him that when she kissed him.

Luring the Moon

★ Pretend gentlewoman x genuinely scheming man / intense push and pull between mature adults

★ The hero has had a crush on her for years, and finally gets his wish

Zhong Jingyue was universally regarded in her circle as a goddess of classical dance, with countless awards, graceful movements, a supple waist, and a dignified, elegant beauty in every expression and gesture.

No one could imagine who might win this aloof beauty over. Then Zhou Mingye, the black sheep of the Zhou family, declared, "She's my girlfriend."

*

At the Zhou family gathering that day, when Zhong Jingyue arrived, Zhou Mingye was talking to his distant uncle, Wen Zhiyao, with his back to her.

Even after seeing her arrive, Wen Zhiyao didn't interrupt. His dark eyes casually swept over her pretty face.

Then Zhong Jingyue heard Zhou Mingye say to Wen Zhiyao, "Isn't chasing an aloof beauty more fun than chasing an ordinary one?"

It was the final blow, striking deep to the bone. Zhong Jingyue looked up and met Wen Zhiyao's unfathomable gaze.

She didn't say a word. She cut her losses and left without hesitation.

Right after her, Wen Zhiyao got up as well.

*

The Wen family was a century-old clan. The craft of making classical dance costumes had been passed down through generations, and the family had always believed in treating others sincerely and doing nothing underhanded.

Wen Zhiyao had never broken that principle.

Until the day of the Zhou family gathering.
