1.

Yan Jue was the comedy guy of the entertainment industry. By chance, he landed a script about a domineering CEO's forced romance. To play the role of an overbearing CEO well, he came up with an up-close-and-personal study plan.

He would infiltrate Shengshi Group and become the CEO's personal assistant, observing the daily life of an overbearing CEO from close range.

The plan went smoothly. The CEO was handsome and kindhearted. He gave Yan Jue a personal assistant position, paid him on time, and even agreed to rehearse their bed scenes with him!

A real-life bodhisattva of a man!

But something seemed off. Who had turned his study plan into something so downright sensual?

"Oh, I did that myself?!"

2.

Sheng Lin was an overbearing CEO.

He noticed that the new intern in the secretary's office was always sneaking looks at him. That gaze didn't seem entirely innocent, so he suspected the other man was an undercover agent and decided to test him personally.

But something seemed not quite right.

The intern not only gazed at him fervently and said he admired him, but also protected him without a second thought. And after one wild night, he boldly confessed, "Would you be willing to give me a chance and date me?"

He was even keen on trying out different scenarios and positions whenever they got physical... He loved him so much!

Was he an undercover agent?

Was he trying to seduce me?

Did he want my body?

He loved me!!!

Until the domineering CEO Yan Jue played in the forced-romance drama became an overnight sensation...

Sheng Lin saw his "CEO Observation Notes" and laughed in exasperation. "Who taught you to study acting like this? Hmm?"

Yan Jue was horrified. "Wait, let me explain!" (Struck out: He fled into the night, carrying a plane and running!)

3.

Later, Sheng Lin flipped through the notes. "Hmm, forced romance? Then... I suppose I can indulge you and give you what you want?"

Yan Jue: Help! SOS!

P.S. Comedy-loving, chuuni, scene-stealing bottom Yan Jue x refined and elegant, chaste and restrained, but goes full forceful romance when furious, domineering top Sheng Lin. Both are virgins. One-on-one.

1.

Top-tier star Jiang Ming and award-winning actor Fu Yuchen were famous arch-enemies in the entertainment industry. Their bad blood was common knowledge across the internet.

When Jiang Ming got a call saying Fu Yuchen had been in a car accident, he was burning one of Fu Yuchen's fashion magazines.

Just hours earlier, Fu Yuchen had mocked him at a charity banquet. "Teacher Jiang looks so pathetic when he keeps everything to himself."

Now, the man who had once hurled insults at him had a bandage wrapped around his forehead, damp lashes, and fingers carefully hooking around the hem of his clothes. "We've been secretly dating for three years... Big brother, you won't even give me a title?"

Jiang Ming looked down at him. Those beautiful eyes were clear and open, filled with unguarded dependence.

What the hell was this bastard acting out now? Had a ghost possessed him after the accident?

"A title?" He leaned down and chuckled. "Fine. I'll make it official tomorrow: you're my dog. Dare to do it?"

Fu Yuchen froze.

That smile, and the flash of wicked anticipation in those eyes, made his heart race out of control in an instant.

2.

That night, Fu Yuchen's VIP-verified account suddenly updated.

[@Jiang Ming VIP Woof.]

[@Jiang Ming VIP I hereby apply to be Teacher Jiang's lifelong pet dog.]

The whole internet exploded: #FuYuchenOfficiallyAnnouncesHesADog#

Jiang Ming exploded too. This bastard really had the nerve!

Before he had time to think it over, Fu Yuchen's company came knocking.

"Fu Yuchen lost his memory after the car accident and believes you're his lover."

"A three-month contract relationship, an S+ variety-show opportunity, and double the pay. Shall we work together?"

Amnesia?

Jiang Ming looked at the dependent-looking man beside him and suddenly smiled.

"Sure." He held the contract, his gaze settling on those clear eyes. "I can't wait to see the look on his face when his memories come back."

3.

Later, during filming, Jiang Ming's fear of water was accidentally triggered.

As his consciousness grew hazy, Fu Yuchen shielded him, his burning palm pressed against the back of Jiang Ming's neck, his voice trembling. "Don't be afraid. I'm here."

And on the day Jiang Ming was slandered, Fu Yuchen stood in front of the cameras and said, "Big brother, I believe you."

There were countless other moments: a glass of water that was always just the right temperature, a light left on to welcome him home, and a pair of eyes always filled with him.

Jiang Ming began to panic.

He was afraid Fu Yuchen would regain his memories. He was afraid he had fallen for him when he shouldn't have in this game of romance, only to end up making a fool of himself.

Until one day, by chance, he caught a flash of clear awareness in Fu Yuchen's eyes.

It was the scrutiny and struggle of his arch-enemy himself, hidden beneath that docile facade.

So this bastard had regained his memories long ago.

Yet he had kept acting in front of Jiang Ming, playing the obedient little dog Jiang Ming liked.

"Very good," Jiang Ming murmured with a soft laugh. "Then let's keep acting for the rest of our lives, my dear arch-enemy."

P.S. Cool on the outside, sweet inside, tsundere and prickly, gorgeous top-tier star bottom x cool on the outside, flirtatious underneath (after losing his memories, turns into a clingy, scheming little dog), calculating award-winning actor top. Both are virgins, one-on-one, happy ending, younger top, five-year age gap.

Theme: Love life.
