Ruan Yan is a marginal figure in the entertainment industry.
He has good looks and plenty of talent.
Unfortunately, his company does nothing for him. Not long after his debut, he faded into obscurity, becoming a nobody in the industry.
One day, his agent brought in a young man. "This is your new assistant."
The new assistant's name was Xi Xing.
Tall and straight as a bamboo stalk, with sharp features and an air of nobility that made him hard to approach.
Ruan Yan: "...He's my assistant?"
Are we sure I'm not the one who's supposed to be assisting him?
Xi Xing was aloof, cool, and arrogant with everyone else.
But with Ruan Yan, he was a clingy puppy.
A fan's chance video at the airport sent Ruan Yan viral:
#Unknown Idol and His Arrogant Assistant#
Ruan Yan looked at the trending topic. "Netizens are discussing your coat."
"They say it's a limited-edition handmade piece, one of a kind worldwide."
Xi Xing cut off the label and lowered his head in shame.
"It's a knockoff. I was afraid... afraid I'd embarrass you."
Ruan Yan's heart melted in an instant.
He resolved to work hard and earn enough to pay his little assistant's salary.
After his new assistant came aboard, Ruan Yan's career took off.
A hit variety show sent him an invitation, a famous director offered him a role, a popular team fought to have him sing the lead track for their album, and one luxury brand after another lined up to hire him as an ambassador.
Later, the identity of the richest person on the list was revealed.
Looking at the report about the elusive young master of a prominent Beijing family, whose face was exactly the same as his assistant's, Ruan Yan smiled. "Care to explain?"
Xi Xing: "We just happen to look alike... That's all."
Then he gave Ruan Yan a pleading puppy-eyed look. "Honey, don't make me sleep on the sofa tonight."
