Ji Linzhao had known little love in his life. His mother left, then his maternal grandparents passed away one after another. At eight years old, he had no choice but to return to his biological father's home, where he became a pitiful rich kid no one cared about.
Luckily, he met his neighbor, Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu had always had everything go his way. From birth, he was marked for success: a pampered young master from a wealthy family and a top-tier star adored by everyone. He was Ji Linzhao's childhood friend, and also his lover.
In the seventh year of their secret relationship, Jiang Yu missed Ji Linzhao's twenty-fifth birthday. That day, Ji Linzhao dreamed that Jiang Yu met the love of his life, and Ji Linzhao left in despair.
A little over a month later, at Jiang Yu's birthday party, Ji Linzhao saw that person: a beautiful new lead singer, standing with Jiang Yu at the center of a crowd, surrounded by cheers. Ji Linzhao watched from a corner, and no one noticed when he left.
Nothing could be more absurd than seeing a dream become reality.
After a few days of careful thought, Ji Linzhao asked Jiang Yu to marry him. Jiang Yu thought it over and decided the time wasn't right.
Ji Linzhao could understand.
Jiang Yu was a top-tier star at the height of his popularity. He couldn't just stop working.
From the time Ji Linzhao was eight until he was twenty-five, Jiang Yu had been the most important person in his life for seventeen years.
Ji Linzhao thought that if it still wasn't the right time to marry, then it was time to leave and start a different life.
A life without Jiang Yu, or one where Jiang Yu wasn't so important.
After leaving a breakup letter behind, Ji Linzhao returned to his ancestral home and lived a secluded life in the mountains. Later, at a friend's invitation, he joined a variety show called Summer of Friendship. After it aired, Jiang Yu discovered overnight that the whole world was shipping his childhood friend and an award-winning actor.
Jiang Yu: I'm losing my mind.
Jiang Yu's manager had always thought the two would break up sooner or later, but he never expected that when the day finally came, Ji Linzhao would be the one to leave, while the dazzling Jiang Yu would be the one to fall apart.
[From the gong's perspective]
Jiang Yu looked back one day and realized that the little white rabbit he'd raised for over a decade had slipped away without a word.
He chased, Ji Linzhao ran. Jiang Yu said a couple of things, and Ji Linzhao bristled.
No matter how much he tried to coax him, he couldn't get him back.
Later, Jiang Yu wished he could announce to the whole world that Ji Linzhao belonged to him.
But on the variety show, Ji Linzhao declared, "I'm single, I don't believe in marriage, and I'm planning to live out my days alone."
It's over.
With red-rimmed eyes, Jiang Yu wondered how he could trick him into coming back.
Couple: Ji Linzhao x Jiang Yu. A soft, clingy little white rabbit who digs in his heels after bristling, as the shou; a proud, refined celebrity who bends for love and refuses to let go, as the gong.
Childhood friends to lovers, pursuing his ex to win him back, reconciliation after a breakup, flawed personalities, their feelings are only for each other, no switching gongs, happy ending, modern fictional setting where same-sex marriage is legal.

The Cannon Fodder Shou Is Still Trying to Bake Little Cakes Today: My Roommate Is a Villainous Big Shot, Help!
Lin Yue transmigrates into a book and becomes a cannon fodder character with the same name, who is forced to marry Wen Simiao, a disgraced heir from a wealthy family. As soon as he arrives, he's packed off to his new home with Wen Simiao.
One is a discarded son of the Wen family, the other an illegitimate son whom the Lin family doesn't favor, sent to take someone else's place. The couple face plenty of mockery.
The difference is that Wen Simiao makes a comeback, while Lin Yue meets a mysterious and tragic end.
The first time Lin Yue sees Wen Simiao, the man is wearing an oversized hospital gown. His skin is an unhealthy pallid white, and his gaze is indifferent. He looks frail and scholarly, yet Lin Yue shivers under his stare.
This is the man who secretly turns into the story's biggest hidden villain, ruthless and powerful enough to make the world tremble.
This is a brutal world where the strong prey on the weak, and people compete until one side is dead. Caught among characters from all sorts of plots, the original Lin Yue is the love-struck admirer of the male lead, the female lead's sworn enemy, and the nominal spouse and betrayer of the villainous big shot Wen Simiao. It's hard to imagine how he could survive.
Lin Yue wants to find a way out. A kind, law-abiding player from a peaceful society just wants to live in peace.
With help from the System, he opens a dessert shop. Following his childhood dream, he works hard every day to bake little cakes and earn some pocket money, determined to stay out of the plot.
As for Wen Simiao, his roommate under the same roof whom he sees every day, Lin Yue smiles, stays polite and respectful, keeps his distance, and occasionally offers him a caring little cake. His bottom line is to never offend him.
Wen Simiao will eventually turn dark and kick him out. When that happens, Lin Yue will be free again!
But three months pass, then six, then nine. Life is busy and thriving.
Lin Yue glances at the big shot calmly waiting for the little cakes to come out of the oven and falls into deep thought.
Why hasn't his roommate turned evil yet?
Couple: Lin Yue x Wen Simiao
A kind, law-abiding, sunny and cheerful shou who only wants to make money; a seemingly pale and frail gong who is actually ruthless and has an absolute need for control.
Theme: Love yourself and love life.
To be honest, I'm a little annoyed by Shi Yang. No matter how much I say I want them to reconcile, I can't say that I've been helping Jiang Yu. Zhao Zhao has expressed it many times, and I can't be partial to him. He understands every time and helps Jiang the next time. It's obvious that Jiang has a big problem. Aren't he and Zhao Zhao also friends? Why can't he think from Zhao Zhao's perspective. Obviously there is a better solution between the two of them. It would be really disgusting to be deceived by friends to meet each other even though they don't want to see each other all the time. Maybe Zhao Zhao's temperament wouldn't be so disgusting.
Using yourself as a bargaining chip to bet that Zhao Zhao will be soft-hearted. There is a sense of forcing Zhaozhao to forgive him. Why didn't we say it publicly when we were together and then we separated. I didn't say anything about the mistakes I made. Fans would just whitewash it and say that my brother just made a little mistake and didn't touch the bottom line, so why don't they forgive him?
Gong is really like a scumbag. I feel that his PUA protagonist doesn't understand why he broke up. He feels that the protagonist Shou is making trouble unreasonably. I think there is really no need to get back together. It's better to be with the actor. The protagonist Shou has clearly said that what he wants is someone to accompany him day and night. The protagonist Gong Que, after knowing that others like him In his case, he still had such a close relationship with that person, and he did not accompany the protagonist Shou when he was alive. Instead, he accompanied another person to buy a watch. When the two people spread the scandal, he did not comfort the protagonist Shou. Until the protagonist Shou was rumored to have an affair with others, his life was always sore. He had never felt that there was anything wrong with what he did before. And it looks like cheating, so I suggest the author change it (just a suggestion!)
I think Jiang Yu missed the point: when he was a star, it didn't affect their relationship. The rift was because of his casual treatment, because no matter what kind of job, it is impossible for someone to be always available and have a colleague relationship. He doesn't understand that his fault is to carefully consider the other party's suggestions, state his concerns when there is no way to implement them, and then consider whether both parties can accept the consequences? If there is a third party with emotional problems, should you avoid it or confess it? Think about it from another person's perspective and consider the acceptance of the person you love. He talks about respect, but in practice he still does his own thing. I think this is good for you. I think you want this. Although your behavior is easy to misunderstand, I know that I love you in my heart.
He's starting to come into his own and I feel like he's good now and will get better.
Stop writing and get a refund. The character design is broken again, and it is not updated.
Let's not talk about anything else. As for the watch, I didn't wear the couple's watch that my mother gave me, but instead wore the one given by my descendant (I forgot what it was called). I just don't like this behavior. And he is always available to that junior, this is simply incredible
The author has been working on this article for many days. I believe you wrote it after careful consideration. However, you may not have written the effect you expected. I have been chasing it. But if you still want to keep it as written in the copywriting, then your entire article will have to be changed. But if you change it, you may not be able to win back the current readers, because Jiang's character has been deeply imprinted on the hearts of these readers. The most fatal flaw of this article is that you may not be clear about the reason for breaking up or you have not expressed whether Jiang did not understand why Shou broke up with him. The reason is not that he brought the watch given by Jiang or that he did not care about him that much. It is that Jiang knew that Jiang liked him, but he really felt that there was not much more for him, so he did not maintain a normal distance from people who like him. Instead, he begged Shou to accept Jiang's phone calls and videos, leaving Shou aside. So I finally want to ask you, what are your current thoughts on this article?
Haha, haha, there is nothing to say. Isn't this just the "regret" quote from Scumbag Gong after he was dumped? Look at the excuses you made, are they human words? They all appear to be excuses for his spiritual cheating... Ah, you don't care about that, then you don't care. You know there are many people who like you, but everyone who likes you and your censorship is known to everyone. Bringing a watch is more frequent than the Zhaozhao couple's watches. Why don't you have a cp with Zhaozhao? You don't even tell everyone about your relationship with Zhaozhao. Even if you don't announce it, people in the industry can't know it. You can't even vaguely show that you have a partner. You just love others to cling to you, haha. They all know it. You know that fans love you and the green tea bitch loves you. You just like the way the green tea bitch clings to you. Haha. What don't you care? You are just enjoying it. Haha.
It's great. It's not bad to start a new life like this.
