Please support it!~ Blurb: Xia Xingchen is a nobody in the entertainment industry, so broke he can’t afford groceries and has to make do with steamed buns and his assistant’s pretty face. But one day, his assistant’s pretty face gets cut by a shard of glass, making their already struggling household even worse off! Xia Xingchen held his assistant’s chin to examine the wound. His assistant obediently sat still and let him inspect it, gazing at him pitifully with tea-colored eyes. “Teacher Xia, I hurt my face. You can dock my pay.” Xia Xingchen: “?” “Isn’t my most important job to protect this face and give Teacher Xia something lovely to look at every day?” Xia Xingchen: “...” That’s right. His assistant was just as broke as he was, with nothing but a pretty face to his name. The two of them squeezed into a tiny apartment, haggled at the market every day, bought discounted laundry detergent, and got pajamas in a buy-one-get-one-free deal. Then one day, Xia Xingchen realized his luck had changed! A best actor specifically requested to work with him; a famous director sent him a script; a top jeweler approached him to be their brand ambassador. He was getting the kind of treatment reserved for a star with connections! Rumors began to spread through the entertainment industry that he had a mysterious big shot backing him. Xia Xingchen: “You’re better off believing I’m Xie Xiangrong than believing I have someone backing me.” Xie Xiangrong, the top figure in Songcheng and the head of one of the city’s most powerful families, was said to be reclusive and mysterious. Until one day, Xia Xingchen ran into his assistant at a lavish party. The assistant was wearing a bespoke suit, a green jade ring on his thumb, and sitting in the seat of honor, surrounded by people eager to toast him. “Mr. Xie.” How strange. Better take another look! Xia Xingchen: Wasn’t his assistant Xiao Xie supposed to be at the supermarket, snatching up discounted bread for him right now? #An Obscure Eighteenth-Tier Star and His Poor but Beautiful Assistant# A beauty-obsessed artist bottom vs. a possessive, pretty-faced top Reader’s Guide: 1.

The top is younger, with a six-year age gap. They are each other’s first love. The Love Curse of the Miao Boy is complete. Please support it!~ One spring night, the youngest Miao King in the history of the Miao village had mastered all the other kinds of gu, but had never tried a love curse. So he experimented on his nemesis, Xie Cha, only for things to go wrong and ensnare himself as well. Chunye: Oh no! They both ended up under the love curse. Whenever one of them had an episode, the other would have one too. Chunye hadn’t realized his love curse would be so powerful. Just seeing Xie Cha’s long, straight legs was enough to make his blood surge and trigger it. The Miao youth sat high atop a stilt house, his face composed and his skin pale and cool, giving him an abstinent, saintly air. He looked down at Xie Cha. “I’m borrowing your legs.” Xie Cha was a haughty young master from the city. Because his mother was from a Miao village, he had to return to the village to visit his grandmother every summer and winter holiday. That day, as soon as he stepped into the village, he saw his nemesis sitting on a stilt house, staring at him with a brooding gaze and saying he wanted to borrow his legs. Xie Cha: You must be desperate! After laughing at him, he strode off. One minute later, Xie Cha’s love curse kicked in too. He came running back to the stilt house and snapped: “Kiss me!” Hurry up! Don’t make me get down on my knees and beg you! The day the love curse was finally lifted, Xie Cha packed his bags in the middle of the night. Before he could run away, Chunye arrived, got wind of what was going on, and pinned him to the bed. Xie Cha’s eyes widened. “What the hell?” Chunye calmly replied, “Yeah.” Xie Cha: “...No, that was just an expression. You didn’t have to turn it into an action. Besides, wasn’t the curse lifted?” Chunye said firmly, “I don’t think it was.” Otherwise, why did he still want to kiss Xie Cha whenever he saw him?
