1.
Gu Qingli is a medical doctor from a prestigious family of scholars. She's exceptionally intelligent and a renowned top student. She founded her own high-end sleep center overseas, which serves only upper-class people suffering from insomnia.
But as a top sleep therapist, she takes very few clients, and her treatment methods are extremely unusual. She's elusive and hard to find.
After a video of one of her treatments was leaked, she unexpectedly became popular online. In the video, the girl wears a white doctor's coat, yet is so breathtakingly beautiful she resembles a chrysanthemum on a mountaintop. The tiny, faint beauty mark on the tip of her nose earned her the media's title of "the purest beauty in medicine" and "the nation's first love."
As countless people waited eagerly for her to use her newfound fame to enter the entertainment industry and make money for her sleep center, she scoffed at the idea. Instead, she went into seclusion, refusing to see the many reporters who came looking for her.
2.
Business tycoon Fu Xishen is a powerful figure who makes both the business world and the wealthy elite tremble and walk on eggshells. In business, he can turn the tide with a flick of his hand. Everyone knows him as cold, ruthless, sinister, and obsessive, a power broker with influence in both the legitimate and criminal worlds.
His moods are unpredictable, and he's an extreme germaphobe and incredibly picky. Countless men and women hoping to marry into a wealthy family are intimidated into silence by him.
People in their circle wondered: Why does President Fu always have to wear a blue silk scarf wrapped around his wrist whenever he appears in public?
Gossips even claimed that, because of his childhood experiences, President Fu suffered from severe insomnia. Every night, he had to sleep clutching that blue scarf, or he'd fly into a rage.
Then, at a gathering packed with guests, Fu Xishen, quite drunk, slowly untied the blue scarf from his wrist. He cradled it in his palm and buried his whole face in it, his eyes hazy as he breathed in its delicate fragrance. He kept murmuring, "Veronica..."
Someone with sharp eyes noticed the name Veronica embroidered on the scarf. That night, everyone present speculated about the identity of the woman the tycoon held so tenderly. What kind of magic did she possess?
No one ever uncovered the truth: in Fu Xishen's childhood, so dark and bleak that not a ray of light could reach it, a gentle, kind angel had let countless glimmers of light shine through her fingers, leaving a warm corner in his world.
From then on, she was buried deep in his heart, irreplaceable. Only by her side could he sleep peacefully. He wanted nothing more than to give her the most extravagant love in the world.
Bonus Scene
At a video conference hosted by the International Sleep Association, the beautiful top student Gu Qingli gave a speech. Fluent in five languages, she spoke calmly and confidently, with poise and eloquence.
Suddenly, a man nobody expected appeared behind her. The tall man, usually so cold and ruthless, rarely showing his emotions, wore only a white shirt with the buttons undone. His eight-pack abs and V-line were clearly visible. Still half-asleep, he held a stuffed bunny and naturally knelt in front of Gu Qingli, burying his face in her arms as he coyly begged her to hold him.
Everyone was stunned.
Gu Qingli blushed and hurriedly stood up, trying to end the livestream, but the man behind her pounced on her, knocking the camera over. The screen instantly went black.
All they could hear through the microphone was Gu Qingli, blushing and speaking in a breathless, coquettish voice: "Fu Xishen, you bastard! Let go of me..."
Nobody knew that what kept Fu Xishen awake all night wasn't only the severe insomnia caused by his childhood trauma. An even greater reason was Gu Qingli, who set his heart ablaze and haunted his dreams.
Beneath Fu Xishen's omnipotence lay a past called "coldness." If there really was an abyss in this world, Fu Xishen himself was the abyss. But if night fell, he wanted to become a light, and Gu Qingli was the firefly that illuminated his darkness...

Genius physics professor x beautiful TV host
Pregnancy before love + marriage before love + four-year age gap + sweet romance
Lu Manman, 28, is an entertainment host at Jingzhou TV. With alluring fox eyes and a bright, captivating smile, she's talented at singing and dancing, flawless in appearance, and a social butterfly. She has never once considered getting married.
She'd even decided long ago that after celebrating her 28th birthday, before turning 30, she would get IVF right away because she loves children.
But on her 28th birthday, after throwing a party, she got drunk, and her equally tipsy best friends took her to the wrong room: Wen Qi's.
Wen Qi, 32, is a postdoctoral researcher in physics from MIT, a genius physicist, and an introvert and perfectionist with a disciplined lifestyle and excellent health. He has just returned to China after completing his studies in the United States. His only hobby is research.
Wen Qi is exactly the kind of man Lu Manman likes least: rigid, serious, rational, and boring. He's like a black-and-white movie, without color or life, dull and tedious.
Lu Manman isn't the kind of woman Wen Qi likes, either. She's lively and carefree, seemingly with an endless supply of energy, like a blazing flame.
Thinking he'd been the little surprise her best friends had arranged for her, Lu Manman had her way with him. She had to admit that he did have a few qualities worth remembering.
She thought they'd never meet again. But a month later, her mother forced her to attend a matchmaking date with a supposedly high-caliber returnee. Lu Manman looked at the exceptionally handsome Wen Qi sitting across from her, unable to believe her eyes.
Her best friend Jiang Ying, who had come along, stared at Wen Qi with shining eyes. "Manman, isn't he exactly the kind of top-tier gene you wanted? He's right here!"
Lu Manman waved her off. "Even though I want a child, I'm not that crazy!"
The next day, while filming her show, Lu Manman suddenly threw up at the sight of the director's receding hairline. She rushed to the bathroom, her sense of foreboding growing stronger.
She took a pregnancy test as quickly as she could. When she saw the result, she cried out in shock. The two red lines were a stark reminder that this good gene had now been delivered right to her door. Whether she wanted it or not, she was having it!
So Lu Manman re-added Wen Qi on WeChat. They'd deleted each other's contact information after meeting just once. In as rational a tone as she could manage, she told him about the unexpected situation.
He didn't reply.
Half an hour later, someone knocked on Lu Manman's door. She opened it to find Wen Qi standing there, his tall figure in front of her, a sheen of fine sweat on his brow that he hadn't had time to wipe away.
Before Lu Manman could ask anything, he took her by the wrist and led her straight outside.
"Where are we going?"
"To get married!"
Bonus Scene 1
At an International Physics Congress (IOP) meeting, Wen Qi, impeccably dressed in a suit at the research institute, spoke eloquently to leading physicists from around the world.
A private video call from family suddenly came in. On the screen was Lu Manman in a qipao, her eyes seductively inviting. "Honey, when are you coming back? I'll be waiting for you~"
Everyone stared, dumbfounded. Who would have thought the aloof, eccentric genius, Professor Wen, was so wild in private?
Bonus Scene 2
After the meeting, Lu Manman had just hurried out of the office with her bag over her shoulder when the department head, distraught over losing his hair, called her back.
"Manman, you know the station's been struggling lately. If you could get out there and bring in some big names for interviews, like the leading scholars in Jingzhou, Professor Wen from the aerospace field, our channel might have a chance..."
"Professor Wen?..." Lu Manman pulled back her right foot and thought, That'll be easy.
When Lu Manman got home, she hadn't even hung up her bag yet.
A tall man in an apron came out of the kitchen carrying her favorite braised pork ribs. His long, narrow eyes glanced at her calmly, and his voice was low and steady. "You're home? Wash your hands and get ready to eat."
Lu Manman got an idea. She dropped her bag and clutched her belly, crying out, "Oh! Little Wen kicked me again. He says he wants his dad to go to the TV station for an interview. He wants to hear him for his prenatal education..."
Professor Wen put down the steaming bowl and strode toward her. His hands, usually used only for calculating research data, scooped her up with ease. "Set a time. Whatever you say..."
Theme: Only by her side can he sleep soundly.
