After Becoming the Scum Gong's White Moonlight, I Fell for His Substitute

[Beautiful, resilient, dangerously spirited shou VS handsome, open-minded, easygoing, energetic gong] [The older man really knows how to spoil him]

Su Muyang has recently awakened to the truth.

He realizes he's the substitute shou in a melodramatic danmei novel full of angst and suffering.

Because his looks and bearing resemble the scum gong's beloved, he was kept by him as a lover. He even fell in love with him because of Stockholm syndrome, gradually losing all dignity as the scum gong summoned him whenever he wanted and cast him aside just as easily. In the end, he met a tragic death.

Su Muyang: Scum gong, get out of my universe! Anyone who dares hurt him is dead!

Yu Chengze has recently transmigrated into a book.

He has become the scum gong's beloved in a melodramatic danmei novel full of angst and suffering.

The scum gong, claiming he loved him too much to defile him, kept an obedient and beautiful substitute, but never cherished him. The substitute eventually grew despondent and slit his wrists.

Yu Chengze: !!!

Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. And this one is a beautiful younger brother who looks just like me.

Su Muyang has been very confused lately.

The scum gong's beloved has suddenly returned to the country with great fanfare, and keeps hovering around him, fussing over him and treating him with gentle affection.

Su Muyang: ...Are you worried I'm your love rival? You've got it all wrong.

Yu Chengze: No, you're the one who's got it wrong. I'm worried you'll fall for him. He's my love rival. You're the one I like.

Su Muyang: ???

Something doesn't seem right.

Are they both the same type?

Yu Chengze gently kisses his earlobe. "No, we're not. I'm strictly a top."

Please check out my other fluffy romance, The Photographer Is the Best [Entertainment Industry]. I'd love it if you added it to your library!

[Versatile, invincible, works for money, cool and handsome or goofy, photographer gong VS immersed in acting, devoted to pursuing art, clueless about everyday life, both sweet and salty, actor shou.]

One accident, one kiss, one night of abandon. A bolt from the blue kindles a blaze, their souls burning all the way to heaven.

Lying in Gu Mingqian's arms, Yu Tongzhou sighs, "So photographers really are the best..." He doesn't just mean their professional skills, but also how many times they can go in one night.

And this all-around photographer is his now!

A photographer has to be able to carry and steady the camera, run long distances and mountain trails, pilot off-road vehicles, submersibles, and drones, and edit photos and videos... They also need to know how to set up tents, grill food, and survive in the wild. Their wilderness skills have to be maxed out. They must be able to go up mountains to photograph the stars, dive underwater to photograph schools of fish, shoot variety shows on deserted islands, and photograph actors on set.

Fitness, skills, conviction; aesthetic sense, communication, approachability. Every quality has to meet the highest standards.

After eight years in the industry, Gu Mingqian has pushed himself into becoming an all-around talent.

Broad shoulders, a narrow waist, long legs, eight-pack abs, and perfectly defined arm muscles. He's become the "hormone king" among photographers!

Until he turned eighteen, Yu Tongzhou followed the usual path of school and college entrance exams. Only after turning eighteen did he develop a real feel for acting and an interest in it, and so began his acting career.

Extras, supporting roles, stepping in for variety shows, attention-grabbing wilderness survival reality shows, supporting male roles in female-led dramas, danmei adaptations with two male leads... If a role offered a challenge and a chance to grow, he would take it.

After eight years in the industry, he has turned himself into an acting fanatic.

Tears in one second, in character in three, character biographies and scripts committed to memory, a fanatical approach to every role. He's famous for it all, and has become a "Three-Golden-Awards Best Actor" among actors!

By a twist of fate, Gu Mingqian and Yu Tongzhou have worked together many times.

Commercial shoots, variety show reality programs as producer-directors, photographing actors on set...

In the eight years they've known each other, they've witnessed every step of each other's growth, from inexperienced beginners to professionals.

Part teacher and part friend, like brothers.

Amid the glitz and extravagance of the entertainment industry, these two have stayed true to themselves, with their eyes and hearts drawn only to each other.

Gong and shou: [To me, you're perfect!]

A sweet modern romance.

[The story includes both the gong's and the shou's perspectives. If you're very particular about whose perspective you read, please consider that before diving in.]

Theme: Love isn't about possession, it's about cherishing.
