[An adorably clueless, flirtatious-but-unaware, universally adored assistant bottom x a cold-on-the-outside, secretly sultry, scheming, jealous big shot top] The refined young Master Xie from the Xie Taifu household in the capital accidentally drowned. He thought he was surely dead, but when he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an unfamiliar era. His new identity was that of a variety-show assistant, and in a few days, the dating show he worked on would begin filming. To avoid revealing that he was from ancient times, Xie Heting decided to teach himself how to fit in. Books contain all the beauty in the world. He browsed the original owner's bookshelf and carefully selected a few books to study. After three days in seclusion, Xie Heting was full of confidence. Great, he now knew how to be a proper modern person! Unable to figure out how to use the walkie-talkie, he tugged at the clothes of the person beside him and asked softly, "Big brother, I don't know how to use this. Could you help me?" Shen Ji, the dignified, composed, abstinent-type award-winning actor, blushed at the way he called him that. Seeing a uniquely shaped "qin," he, a music lover, hesitantly asked, "Little brother, your qin is beautiful. May I touch it?" Shi Jixing, the rebellious new star of the music scene, stammered and handed over his most precious guitar, which he never let anyone touch. "S-Sure." The advice in the book was very useful, but there were always exceptions. For example, calling Jin Huaifeng, the handsome, wealthy man with a mysterious background, either big brother or little brother didn't work at all. Dejected, Xiao Xie went back and read The Art of High-EQ Communication for Irresistible Charm several times, over and over. It made perfect sense! So why had Jin Huaifeng cornered him against the wall, asking with a sinister expression how many big brothers he had? [Important content warnings] 1. This isn't a competition between love interests, but the guests all have strong feelings for the bottom. Jin Huaifeng is the endgame top. Both are virgins, and it has a happy ending. 2. Lots of comments and several pairings. It has a very slight ensemble-cast feel. 3. Shares a setting with The Abandoned Heir of a Wealthy Family. No real-life inspirations, and entirely fictional, so please don't read it as based on real people. 4. The writing is childish and the logic is a mess. If you don't like it, drop the story, but don't insult me, or you'll just be kicking a pillow! Theme: Be your own torch and shine your own light
