After I Got Famous, I Won Over My Idol [Insectoid]

Yue Shanzhuang, a mech-channel creator

After three years of steadily building up his work, his latest video reached a record number of views. Fans rushed to celebrate their hidden-gem creator finally breaking into the mainstream.

Meanwhile,

An interview at an exhibition made a first-year male insect, a scummy-looking top student, go viral across the internet. His classmates were devastated, lamenting that such a wonderful junior and classmate had finally been exposed to the public.

Cen Yan watched videos posted under his different identities go viral at the same time, but what excited him more was receiving a collaboration invitation from his idol.

Cen Yan, a first-year mech design major, became the center of attention as soon as he enrolled. He had the looks of a top-tier scumbag male insect, the personality of an aloof beauty, and was far ahead of all the other hardheaded students studying mech design.

Qi Yuan, a fourth-year mech combat major, had won the university mech combat championship three years running.

Qi Yuan's style in university mech combat was fierce and decisive, his confidence dazzling, his charisma boundless.

And he threw Cen Yan's heart into turmoil.

Then came three years of quietly watching him. Watching him face controversy, watching him bask in glory again, watching him continue to shine.

Watching him walk toward him.

Qi Yuan really liked his impossibly obedient boyfriend.

But he didn't notice that when Cen Yan stared at him,

his eyes had turned into slits.

Cen Yan, who had come from another world, thought he'd adapted well to insect society. But as Qi Yuan gradually drew closer, his condition began to relapse.

At first, he lost control of his male-insect pheromones. Then the insect race's violent, possessive instincts began to surface.

Cen Yan kept it hidden, but couldn't save himself.

Until it was discovered.

And then he was cured.

A fair-skinned, unconsciously manipulative and alluring, slightly unhinged gong x a reliable, straight-laced shou

Mech design genius x mech combat competitor

Two clueless little newbies in love

*

Equal status for males and females, not a typical insect novel

Gong-centric, age gap with the gong younger, includes a side couple (not many scenes)

The gong looks somewhat weak, but has a foundation from his previous life and is genuinely a genius.

The site setting mixes Bilibili and Weibo, along with original elements.

The romance develops slowly in the first twenty chapters.

The shou-centric novel I'm currently writing: He Teases Me, What Can I Do?

When Lin Yu'an learns his younger brother might be getting manipulated by a sweet-talking schemer, he's shocked, then resolutely decides to leave him to it.

He needs to learn from a few mistakes and develop some sense.

Actually, Lin Yu'an still can't figure it out. His silly, sweet younger brother has been pranked by him since childhood, but at least he has basic judgment. How did he fall into such a trap?

Is a sweet-talking schemer really that irresistible?

In the spirit of being eager to learn, Lin Yu'an studies how to act like a sweet-talking schemer and puts what he learns into practice.

His target is his new boyfriend, the one he calls his little fox.

Later, watching his boyfriend get hooked with his own eyes, Lin Yu'an gained a profound understanding of the charms of a sweet-talking schemer.

If even the little fox can't resist, how is his own blockhead of a younger brother supposed to fight back!

*

Yuan Li never understood how Lin Yu'an, who'd been sweet on the outside and scheming underneath since childhood, had earned himself a reputation as the "best boyfriend."

He also never expected to end up with him.

Even more surprising, he never expected Lin Yu'an to act this way when he was in love.

Mm, this is kind of addictive.

Later, when Yuan Li learned Lin Yu'an acted this way only with him, he was stunned.

So he was serious?

After thinking it over for a whole night, Yuan Li gladly decided to take their relationship seriously.

*

When Lin Yu'an noticed the little fox had changed, acting like a bashful little wife,

Lin Yu'an: "Mm..." Whatever. I'll just keep teasing him.

When the little fox later asked him, all whiny and soft, how he really felt, Lin Yu'an's ears turned red as he softly confessed his love.

I can't help it. He's acting so cute.

A little fox gong who accepts everyone's advances x a sweet-on-the-outside, scheming-underneath shou who's eager to learn

"Accepts everyone's advances" means the shou knows exactly what the gong is up to and happily goes along with it.

Theme: Work earnestly and love happily.
