Secret Flirting [Showbiz]

[The novel is complete. It will be moved to the completed section on July 27. Thank you all for supporting the official release. My new novel, Misty Hues Like You, is now available next door.]

Sweet-talking, double-crossing top-tier star & calculating, flirtatious fake director

1. Shen Yunxing, a top-tier star, was set up overnight and vilified across the internet. She lost tens of millions of followers on Weibo and fell from her pedestal. By chance, a handsome young director who had returned from overseas took her in.

2. On her first day “living together” with the unknown director, Song Yanbei coldly laid down three rules: rent was due monthly, she had to do the cleaning, and meals had to include three dishes and a soup.

Shen Yunxing: ?

Isn’t my face enough to win you over?

Fine, man. You’ve successfully caught my attention.

3. Just as her new drama became a huge hit, someone exposed Shen Yunxing for repeatedly going in and out of the director’s room late at night.

Online, the criticism poured in.

With no other choice, she made their relationship official to clear her name: “Is there a problem with me sneaking into my boyfriend’s room?”

Fans: “Her account must have been hacked. My idol will never fall from grace!”

Half an hour later, a Weibo account with nothing but zombie followers posted:

Mu Xing: “My wife is welcome to inspect whenever she likes.” @Shen Yunxing

Netizens were astonished. That familiar ID, wasn’t that Shen Yunxing’s most die-hard fan?

Everyone mocked the little fan named “Mu Xing,” saying they were so obsessed with their idol that they fantasized about dating her.

Later, everyone watched as that little fan account changed its name to “Song Yanbei.”

Weibo verification: Executive President of the Song Group!

Everyone was stunned all over again.

Had the fan actually succeeded? The kind who brought their idol home as their wife.

Fans: “Waaah, the roof has completely caved in, but they’re so adorable together. Through our tears, we raise the Beixing banner high!”

Bonus scene:

While tidying up, Song Yanbei found an A4 sheet that had fallen out of a book Shen Yunxing often read.

The bold title read: “The God of Wealth Song’s Inheritance Plan. Let’s go, let’s go!”

It meticulously listed all sorts of “accidental death” methods for assassinating him.

Shen Yunxing rubbed her forehead awkwardly. “Babe, just hear me out...”

Song Yanbei remained calm. “No need to explain. I know all about it.”

“You know, and you’re not calling me out?”

The man leisurely folded the paper in his hands, a teasing smile in his eyes. “I offered myself up willingly.”

Reader’s Guide:

One-on-one / both leads are each other’s first / happy ending

Sweet romance, secret love comes true, no real-life inspiration, contains fictional details.

The heroine is a little flighty at first and talks nonsense all the time, but she’ll gradually grow as the story goes on.

[Synopsis for the upcoming novel Misty Hues Like You]

Shy, pretends to be a good girl x scheming photographer

Serious synopsis:

At university, Lu Ci was the golden boy, dazzling and brilliant. When she was at the age of first love, she couldn’t bring herself to say “I like you,” and could only watch him from afar across the crowd.

At a photography exhibition, Wen Yi saw the familiar figure from her memories once more. He had shed his youthful awkwardness, and a composed reserve now rested between his brows. His distant, detached air made him all the more difficult to approach.

“Wen Yi.”

As she was leaving, a deep, magnetic voice called out to her.

She turned around abruptly, her heart pounding. Only then did she realize that he had remembered her after all.

The years could not erase the name Lu Ci, nor could time wipe it from her memory. No matter how many years passed, he remained in her heart, never fading.

She thought they would never cross paths again, but a week later, someone knocked on her door.

The man held out his long, elegant hand, warm and composed. “Hello, new neighbor. I hope we’ll get along.”

Wen Yi stared blankly, then belatedly reached out. The instant their palms touched, a shiver ran through her like a current, and her heart could no longer be still.

As the saying goes, living near the water lets you get the moon first. Faced with this lamb who had delivered himself to her doorstep, Wen Yi racked her brains trying to get Lu Ci to notice her.

But later she realized that this new neighbor seemed to pay her an unusual amount of attention. He borrowed soy sauce in the morning, vinegar in the afternoon, then returned them at different times over the next few days. Every day, he could hardly wait to come knocking on her door twenty times.

At a class reunion, Wen Yi happened to overhear a friend ask him, “Wen Yi already turned you down once, didn’t she? Are you still planning to hang yourself from that one tree?”

Lu Ci lowered his eyes, his expression unreadable. “She’s the only one I’ll ever choose.”

Wen Yi was stunned. Her feet seemed rooted to the spot, and for a moment she couldn’t process this flood of revelations.

Lighthearted version:

When Lu Ci accidentally learned that Wen Yi would only date an only child,

Lu Shi excitedly ran to his brother to take credit, only to notice that his brother was looking at him strangely. Then he heard Lu Ci tell Wen Yi:

“Our whole family has actually already cut ties with Lu Shi.”

His younger brother, who hadn’t gone far: “...”

Weren’t we close just this morning?

Catching his brother’s threatening look, Lu Shi swallowed and immediately backed down. He said through gritted teeth, “Actually, I could die too.”

Wen Yi gaped. “!?”

What is wrong with this family?
