I Became Famous After Marrying My Ex by Contract

A mischievous, needy, pure-hearted beauty of a shou x a ruthless, sharp-tongued actor gong who spoils his husband

Ever since his debut, popular heartthrob Wen Sui has been hailed as the entertainment industry's ultimate in alluring innocence and the gay community's dream man. His stunning face has fans utterly bewitched, yet he keeps himself spotless. Not one dating rumor has surfaced since his debut, and he lives as austerely as a monk.

When fans and haters clashed, people dug into his past for three days and three nights and still couldn't unearth a single old romance.

Then, one day, scandals engulfed Wen Sui, his carefully crafted image fell apart, and he was cursed on the trending lists for three days and three nights.

Wen Sui, the couch potato: "I can quit the industry."

His agency: "No! You can't!"

To save Wen Sui's collapsing career, his manager found him a husband of convenience overnight: newly crowned Best Actor Xie Hanshu. The manager conspired with Xie Hanshu's agent and hurriedly packed the two of them off to a hugely popular married-couple reality show.

What nobody knew was that Xie Hanshu was the one romance Wen Sui's fans had failed to dig up in those three days and nights:

His one and only first boyfriend.

I Want to Sleep with You is the most popular reality show in recent years. As soon as the production team announced its newest contestants, the show's official account was flooded with arguments and abuse.

The identity of Wen Sui's secretly married spouse was thoroughly exposed, and countless haters descended on his Weibo account, nearly crashing it.

Then, on the day filming began...

The laid-back, widely disliked Best Actor Xie Hanshu suddenly appeared on camera, smiling warmly with a tender look in his handsome eyes.

Fans: ?

Fans: ???

Xie Hanshu, aren't you single? What are you doing here?

It wasn't just the fans. Everyone in the entertainment industry knew that Xie Hanshu was the one remaining paragon of virtue among male celebrities: no shipping himself with anyone, no dating rumors, no intimate contact with women, and even keeping a careful distance from the men around him. He was even more chaste than Wen Sui.

Xie Hanshu was great in every way except for his sharp tongue. Even passing dogs got an earful from him...

The fans were still baffled, just about to ask a question.

The next moment, they saw Wen Sui trying to sneak away from under the camera, looking sheepish. Best Actor Xie casually grabbed him by the collar, his tone hard to read:

"Honey, where are you running off to?"

Wen Sui: ???

Fans: ???

The entertainment industry was rocked to its foundations, and Weibo crashed again.

Only Wen Sui was on the verge of tears. Who could tell him why his ex-boyfriend had shown up here and become his husband of convenience?

Wen Sui: Danger!!!

Before the show, Xie Hanshu thought, Wen Sui, you ungrateful little brat. You dumped me back then, and I'll get you back twice as hard. I'll make you suffer a little.

After the show began, Xie Hanshu looked at Wen Sui, whose eyes were full of spring and whose lips were red against his pearly teeth, and felt his defenses crumbling.

Wen Sui had gotten even prettier...

Why was Wen Sui talking to another man...

Wen Sui could only belong to him...

Maybe making Wen Sui suffer in some other ways wouldn't be so bad?

Xie Hanshu glanced at the tie by the bed. After a moment's thought, he jotted down the positions he planned to use that day in his little notebook and smiled with satisfaction.

Afterward, the pretty Wen Sui clutched his aching waist, looking as though he might cry.

Weren't they supposed to be a couple in name only? How had this turned into the real thing???
