Mutual pining, rekindled love, a groveling ex, and a balance of romance and career~
1.
Everyone knows top-tier actor Sang Cong has never courted publicity since his debut. Whenever a rumor surfaces, he immediately clears it up: "That's not true, thanks."
His fans thought their idol really wasn't interested in women. But after he appeared on a variety show, they realized he couldn't move on from it. Every so often, he posted about how much he missed the show, and he frequently liked videos by the famous creator Yan Zhi...
Before long, his fans noticed he had stopped liking her videos. The truth turned out to be that their idol had been blocked by a beautiful older sister?
Everyone was in an uproar: Serves you right! You should have paid attention while filming instead of making our beautiful instructor angry.
Sang Cong: (Filled with regret and devastated) Actually, I... I know I was wrong.
Not long after, another trending topic took over the charts: #CoolAndCockySangCongTurnsIntoAClingyLoverAndWritesInBloodBeggingHisSisterInLawForAdvice

[Extra Scene]
At twenty-six, Yan Zhi was named "New Media Person of the Year." At the awards ceremony, she stood out in a blue gown and sapphire necklace.
Down below, Sang Cong wore a beaming smile, watching her like an overprotective husband. When he saw Yan Zhi interacting with another male star, he grew wildly jealous...
After Yan Zhi came offstage, Sang Cong greeted her with a smile, but she ignored him. At last, unable to bear someone's resentful gaze any longer, she turned and smiled sweetly. "Be quiet. Don't interrupt me while I'm chatting with a beautiful older sister."
When the video came out, the internet erupted. His fans "kindly" presented Sang Cong with a durian and taught him how to win his wife's favor.
That night, Sang Cong posted a tearful complaint: Good news, the durian got eaten. Bad news, I didn't get any.
Fans: ???
P.S.
1. Romance-focused, with the career plot as a supporting thread. Lighthearted, funny, and sweet.
2. No melodramatic plotlines.
3. One-on-one romance, both leads' first time, happy ending.

[An heiress with eight hundred schemes × a rebellious young master of the Beijing Circle]
Marriage first, love later × mutual pining comes true
1.
When Wen Xirui was ten, she overheard a relative say that her family had picked her up off the street. To protect her position as an heiress, she learned to say whatever people wanted to hear.
To maintain her image as a sweet, sensible girl, she volunteered to marry into the He family, whose company was then the largest in the Beijing Circle.
She thought she'd be marrying He Yuze, the He family's refined and distinguished eldest son, and at first she had no objections.
But one day, when both families sat down to dinner, Chairman He and his wife repeatedly apologized because their younger son hadn't shown up, while He Yuze didn't even look at her.
She suddenly realized she was going to marry He Qiyan, the notorious, unruly young man who was said to do everything except anything useful!
2.
After learning that his family had arranged a marriage for him, He Qiyan gave a lazy "Oh" and didn't care in the slightest.
He figured he could just give her a few million each month and show up with her to appease their families during the holidays.
He never expected that one day the Wen heiress, renowned for being gentle and gracious, would come to see him in person.
She coldly slapped a marriage agreement down in front of him and tried every threat and inducement to make him sign it.
His mind went blank. Wasn't she the white moonlight he'd fallen for at first sight, only to have no contact with ever since?
Seeing how Wen Xirui's gentle mask concealed an attitude that showed she didn't care about him at all, He Qiyan became intrigued. He spoke with a half-smile. "There's one thing I don't agree with."
Wen Xirui looked up at him. Her beautiful, striking face wore its signature fake smile.
"We have to share a bed, too? What if you take advantage of me?"
For the first time, the normally unflappable Wen Xirui lost her composure. She spun around and walked off, leaving him with a single retort: "Shameless."
3. [Extra Scene]
On their second wedding anniversary, He Qiyan suddenly asked Wen Xirui, "Do celebrities hate being photographed without their permission?"
Wen Xirui paused, then smiled. "If it's a fan taking the picture, and it turns out well, I won't be angry."
As soon as she finished speaking, he handed her a photo. It looked as though it had been taken without her knowing when she'd been tricked into going skiing at his club last time.
At the same time, his gentle, suggestive voice sounded beside her ear:
"Then from now on, I'm your fan."
Wen Xirui froze, then rose onto her toes and gave him a light kiss on the lips.
He answered with a possessive, passionate kiss.
