Spring Tide Like Water [Entertainment Industry]

◎ Sweet, seemingly innocent little bunny perfumer 🤍 × 🖤 seemingly innocent on the outside, secretly dark big bunny idol

◎ Pretend forced love | Desire turns to love | Consumed whole

[Blurb]

1.

Wen Shiya is a perfumer with her own studio.

Her unique sense of fragrance has drawn countless celebrities from the entertainment industry to her, making her a highly sought-after perfumer.

No one knows that her talent for perfumery comes with a side effect:

Whenever a customer uses a fragrance she made for them for the first time, she dreams of their dreams.

She kept this secret for years.

Until she met Yin Jinghan, the second member of a top-tier star idol group.

2.

The day Yin Jinghan came to commission a fragrance, his whole demeanor was polite yet distant.

She remembered the sound of his long fingers tapping on the counter, like some kind of dangerous countdown.

The night he first used his custom fragrance, Wen Shiya fell into a feverish dream.

In it, she was pinned against the glass display case in her perfume studio. The man held her from behind, gently biting her earlobe as he chuckled, "You smell so good."

All night long, they knew nothing of the world around them.

The dream should have happened only once.

But Yin Jinghan's dreams came to visit every night, each time more daring than the last:

A TV station's waiting room, the bottom of a private swimming pool, in front of a floor-to-ceiling window...

Like a rising spring tide, she was utterly undone in his dreams.

And in reality, Yin Jinghan's gaze grew more dangerous by the day.

"Yin Jinghan, please stop using that fragrance."

At last, unable to take it anymore, she found him at a fan-signing event.

But Wen Shiya didn't know that Yin Jinghan could dream of her even without using the fragrance.

3.

After one of their passionate encounters, Wen Shiya asked Yin Jinghan when he had started to like her.

Yin Jinghan didn't answer directly. Instead, he slowly traced her still-trembling waist.

He lowered his head to inhale the fragrance at her neck. "Every time you cried in my dreams..."

"I decided I wanted you to cry like that for me in real life, too."
