■ Glamorous, passionate bar owner X wicked, sickly genius guitarist
■ Older woman-younger man romance | Mutual prey | Tension and push-pull | Everyone is unhinged
01.
Ying Su had been by Fu Sili's side for nine years. Everyone envied her for marrying into a powerful family.
Only she knew that he was her uncle by marriage, a powerful man on a pedestal, and she was worlds apart from him.
When she walked away, Ying Su smiled and wished him a happy wedding, then decisively deleted all his contact information.
That night, she got drunk at a bar and met Xi Ze for the first time.
The young man had the face of a playboy, a cigarette between his thin lips, and long fingers effortlessly working the turntables. He was carefree and uninhibited.
Ying Su met his gaze and, as if possessed, walked over and asked him outright if he wanted to come home with her.
After a night of abandon, Ying Su responsibly tossed him the keys to a sports car worth over four million yuan. Who knew the young man would get hooked and cling to her?
02.
Xi Ze was a renowned top-tier rich second-generation heir in Lin City, as well as a music prodigy who had burst onto the scene. He was adored by everyone and never lacked admirers.
But no one expected that one day he would kneel before a woman, willingly becoming her plaything.
Even less did they expect him to publicly declare his love for her with an original love song at a music festival attended by tens of thousands.
Yet he still lost to her heartlessness.
On a sticky, humid night of torrential rain, he lifted the woman off his waist and clasped her sweaty palm. With barely restrained ferocity, he kissed away her tears again and again. "You were so passionate tonight. Was it because of me, or because... he's back?"
"Of course it was because of you."
He covered her alluring, tearful eyes and gave a bitter laugh. "Sis, why can't you even put in a little effort when you lie to me?"
03.
After parting on bad terms, Ying Su returned to her apartment. When she opened the door, she saw a man standing motionless before the floor-to-ceiling window, a cigar burning quietly between his fingers.
After an unknown stretch of time, he turned his head through the drifting haze. His eyes were unfathomably deep, radiating an invisible pressure.
"You see me and don't even know to say hello anymore?"
04.
A sensational tale of romance stirred up Lin City.
Rumor had it that the all-powerful head of the Fu family was willing to shackle a woman with marriage just to win her back, but she had fled her wedding with the eldest young master of the Xi family in front of everyone.
In the end, one man fell from his pedestal for her, and the other sacrificed his whole life for her.

Content warnings:
1. The heroine has had previous relationships; the hero is a virgin. There is a nine-year age gap. The hero is a first-year college student who plays in a band.
2. None of the main cast are perfect. Each of them is unhinged in their own way.
3. [Highlight] Classic melodramatic angst! Extremely explosive! A whole pile of cliches, including but not limited to love-hate relationships, coercive possession, foster-family romance, and a lesbian subplot (not much focus, unrelated to the main characters).
4. The second male lead appears fairly late and gets a substantial amount of page time, with a pursuit-after-rejection and love-rival showdown.
5. The heroine truly loved the second male lead. The hero is at a disadvantage from the start, and both of them will suffer.
6. This is a work of unrestrained indulgence. Don't expect logic. If these tropes are not for you, proceed with caution.

Brazenly stealing someone's partner | Both flirty and charming | Tension and push-pull | Rekindled love
Scheming, devoted rascal vs. seemingly obedient, flirtatious little fox
01.
Donglin University had two major campus celebrities.
Chu Yue, the dance department's campus belle, had an ethereal, otherworldly face. She was pure and dazzling, with countless admirers at her feet.
Qi Siyu from the architecture department was a true child of heaven, handsome and wild, living without restraint and at ease in the game of love.
Countless people secretly shipped the two for their stunning looks.
But the two stars of the pairing each did their own thing and never crossed paths.
Their only connection, if you could call it one, was that Chu Yue's new boyfriend was Qi Siyu's roommate.
The first time she met him, they accidentally held hands in the elevator.
The second time, she attended his birthday party with her boyfriend.
In the decadent world of wine and song, the young man lounged lazily on a sofa. A beautiful woman with red lips and white teeth bent over to light his cigarette. He smiled with his thin lips, but his dark eyes looked through the crisscrossing lights straight at her.
At the time, she was nestled sweetly in her boyfriend's arms, complaining about how boring the party was, when she unexpectedly met his gaze.
02.
Everyone thought they barely knew each other, but no one knew what happened that night at the end of a dim, deserted corridor.
Chu Yue found her way blocked by him. "Young Master Qi, are you openly trying to steal your buddy's girlfriend?"
Qi Siyu braced one arm against the wall beside her. The tendons stood out around his pale, slender wrist, alongside his black tattoos, making him irresistibly sexy.
He leaned close to her, tugged at the corner of his lips, and looked like a rascal to the bone.
"He's not good enough for you."
"Stop playing with him."
"Play with me instead."
03.
Later, Chu Yue really did play with him. When their relationship was at its most passionate, she left without a word and was gone for five years.
They met again at a theater during her world tour. As the rising head of the Qi family, he was surrounded by people and treated as an honored guest.
Their eyes met unconsciously for a moment, and they acted like strangers.
Only after the dance performance ended, as the audience burst into applause, did a man backstage offer her flowers and confess his feelings.
Just as Chu Yue smiled and reached to take the flowers, a powerful grip clamped around her arm.
He pinned her against the wall just as he had all those years ago, his wrist trembling faintly.
Chu Yue looked at him calmly. "Young Master Qi, wasn't getting burned by me once enough?"
Qi Siyu paid no heed to the people around them or her sarcasm. He only gazed at her solemnly and asked in a low, hoarse voice:
"Have you been happy all these years without me?"

Both virgins | Happy ending | Bad girl x bad boy
Theme: Love is finding a light in a dark room
I really like the first half, but as the author said, it is really difficult to write such a complicated and entangled article. Come on! It would be boring to read the same sweet articles all the time. It's a good attempt. I hope to see better works from the author in the future hehehe
Will Ying Su be with Xi Ze in the end?
Not to mention there is still Chapter 91!!! When will it be updated?
I still don't want the heroine to forgive Fu and want to be together because he has done too many things that have hurt the heroine. I saw someone talking about Fu and Fu being together (but I saw Routh saying that Fu's ending is a given and I put my mind down. I can write a good ending for him because you will have different ideas if you think from that character's perspective). For my own personal selfishness, I still hope that he and the heroine will be together, but I feel that it would be inappropriate and there would be too much estrangement 😭 (I also think that he and the heroine should be locked up, no matter what the outcome is, they at least exist in parallel worlds, and it is possible that the story will still happen in their world. At least they once had each other in their hearts)
Da Da said that being with Fu is a science fiction novel, but being with Xi is not suitable from the last few pictures. In fact, it can be be or oe, and there is no need to force he.
If there is a side story, I would actually like to watch Chu Yue and Qi Siyu 😳
I read the second half of the volume after I saw Enter V. I didn't read the first half, but I don't think it affected anything. Personally, I think the overall quality is very good, and the writing is smooth and delicate. I saw some comments that there were problems with the logic of the characters, but maybe I really don't have that high requirements for the logic of the story. I don't think there is any problem. I I feel that the overall story is very smooth, and I can get the feelings between the male and female protagonists. I think the plot development between the male and female protagonists is very reasonable. Also, I am quite willing to read the story in detail, because I am also a person who likes to talk about everything in detail and explain everything clearly 😂 I saw a chapter saying that the characters and the ending were changed due to the influence of the comments, but in the end I followed my heart and followed the original outline. I was really happy! I think the current ending may not be perfect, but it is very comfortable! If the ending is really changed to let the second male lead he, then maybe I will feel uncomfortable [laughing and crying😂😂
It's so good. It's my first time following a serial. I'm waiting for the extras and an If line. Both male protagonists are very good. It's hard to choose.
Sprinkle flowers [spread flowers] [sprinkle flowers] This is the first time I have followed a serialized article so seriously. I really like it. Thank you for your hard work.
I've been following this novel for so long. I didn't expect that the second male lead would have such a tragic ending. I hope he can be happy in that world, and most of all I hope the heroine can be happy.
