[The next book is The Marriage Match Is My Ex-Boyfriend. The blurb is at the very bottom. Feel free to add it to your reading list!]
Lu Yue is a little-known actor from the bottom ranks of show business. His acting is terrible, his singing is off-key, and even his universally adored pretty face is nothing special in the entertainment industry.
The only thing he thinks he can boast about is his handsome, broad-shouldered, long-legged, never-greasy CEO boyfriend.
But Lu Yue's CEO boyfriend is nothing like the ones in novels. While other CEOs spend their days doting on their wives and their nights making love, his boyfriend is always flying around the world. He's a bona fide workaholic.
His boyfriend buys him houses, cars, and cats, and takes care of every aspect of his life. He has so much allowance on his card that he can never spend it all.
The only problem is that they don't meet even once a month. When they do, his boyfriend has sex with him and then runs off. He's even gotten into the habit of going missing for long stretches. It seems the paparazzi know more about his whereabouts than Lu Yue does.
Only the steady stream of high-quality job offers reassures Lu Yue that his boyfriend is still alive and doesn't plan to break up with him.
Lu Yue thinks his relationship feels more like being kept by a sugar daddy.
Zhu Xingci is in his first relationship. His partner is a fiery little wildcat, arrogant but incredibly clingy.
He quietly learns how to date from the friends around him, but only realizes that the playboys' dating advice is completely useless after he receives a notice from his kitten saying he's run away from home.
His beloved cat insists on thinking he's a kept lover. The feelings he's worked so hard to nurture aren't appreciated by his sweetheart, who coldly tells him:
"Your face is pretty tempting, and, okay, your body isn't bad either. Otherwise, I'd have left ages ago."
Zhu Xingci reflects deeply, gives up and clocks out, then devours 128 gigabytes' worth of CEO romance novels before joining his buddies to pursue his love on a dating reality show.
"I fell for Lu Yue at first sight."
"Don't pick them. None of them is better than me."
"I've retired. From now on, I'll stay home and devote myself to taking care of you, my little cat."
"Lu Yue, marry me."
So this is probably a happily-ever-after story about a prince and a kitten.
[No breakup-and-regret arc! The runaway is just a bit of playful sulking between a couple!]
[The bottom thought the top was keeping him, but he was too attracted to his looks to leave. He only ran away after he genuinely fell in love!]
[The top is pretty stupid at first and can't express himself, but he'll gradually learn!]
A cool-headed, steady, action-over-words, jealous top x a sweet, well-behaved-in-public bottom who loves throwing tantrums at home
The cover character design was commissioned by the author. It depicts the top as he appears when the leads first appear together in Chapter 3.
There are countless good books out there. If this one isn't for you, just move on. If a scene makes you uncomfortable, stop reading in time. Getting angry is bad for your liver.
Upcoming book: The Marriage Match Is My Ex-Boyfriend, a melodramatic, old-school faux business-warfare story. Add it to your reading list if you're interested!
Ming Huai's longtime crush, the unattainable moonlight in his heart, has fallen off his pedestal. Ming Huai goes to a bar to get drunk alone.
Just as he's hitting his stride, the handsome lead singer of the resident band walks by. Fueled by alcohol, Ming Huai's lust awakens.
Loosening his tie, he leans against the bar. His thin lips curve into a smile, his expression is flirtatious, and he crooks a finger at the other man, charm spilling from his every glance.
When Ming Huai wakes from his hangover, his whole body aches.
He looks at the mess covering the floor, then at the silver-haired beauty sitting shirtless against the headboard, smoking and playing a game, and falls into deep thought.
After a long while, he clears his hoarse throat.
"Ahem... How much? I mean, do we pay by the month or by the visit?"
·
After a few dates, the two naturally settle into a long-term arrangement. In Ming Huai's eyes, the silver-haired beauty is a little stray dog who lacks both money and love.
His family is poor, so he has to sing for money at a bar. Just hearing about it makes Ming Huai feel sorry for him, and Ming Huai is generous when sending him spending money.
To avoid complications, Ming Huai tells him he's a young entrepreneur who started from nothing, owns eight companies, and has plenty of money.
But this pretend relationship hasn't even lasted six months when a wealthy family next door names Ming Huai as their marriage match.
After another wild night together, he transfers some money to his younger boyfriend's account, then coolly pulls up his pants and runs away.
His farewell message: Let's part on good terms.
·
At the marriage meeting, Ming Huai sees the silver-haired beauty, his ex-boyfriend, seated prominently across from him.
That's right, the one he rode roughshod over, humiliated with money, and then seduced before callously abandoning him
Ming Huai: ?
Weren't you poor, forced to sing at a bar as soon as you turned eighteen?
His ex-boyfriend sneers.
Weren't you a young entrepreneur who started from nothing and ran eight publicly listed companies?

"It sounds a little ridiculous,
But in a boys' love novel on Green River,
It's actually pretty normal."
A clingy, skilled-in-bed, yandere beauty top x a seemingly aloof but secretly passionate, seductive beauty bottom.
Top and bottom are exclusive. Don't send Ming Huai away. Age gap, with the top younger.
Theme: There is always more to learn
The plot of the deputy CP, from the quarrel to the breakup to the reconciliation and the character of Ning Qing, feels like it has no beginning or end. Several people are like child's play... I looked at my blood pressure. At the beginning, I didn't have a mouth at all. Within one chapter, I had a mouth. All the troubles in the past were gone.
How can I put it? It's tasteless and a pity to abandon. The characters are too fragmented and the emotional lines are arranged in a mess. After reading the first half of the book, I decisively ordered the whole book. I jumped on the variety show afterward.
Why isn't my last chapter Abai? ? ? ? ?
My heart aches. I really like Bai Bai and the others, even though I don't like Qi.
Why am I seeing chapters that have been posted before? What I saw in 121 and 122 are the two chapters that were posted before.
Why don't I understand? Isn't this the same as the previous content?
All have bright futures
Ah ah ah why is it locked! What am I missing! Tearful
Ahhhh, when will the ending of Bai Qi come?
So, can you urge me to write the next book? Hey-hey
