Synopsis

-

Jian Xingyu is busy every day, spinning like a top. The moment he opens his eyes, he's either going to class or making money. Then one day, someone offers him money to get close to Wen Xuze, a major star who has recently made a comeback, and also the most popular guy at their school.

With the customer always right, Jian Xingyu asks around to find out the campus heartthrob's class schedule and contrives all kinds of chance encounters, hoping to snap a juicy scoop.

But he barely gets any newsworthy shots before he gives away his real purpose.

Wen Xuze stares at him, eyes dark, a screen full of candid photos labeled with times and locations.

"Explain."

Eight hundred excuses flash through Jian Xingyu's mind in a second. Panicking, he blurts out, "Actually, I've had a crush on you for ages!"

The expression on the other man's face suddenly changes from cloudy to sunny...

-

Two years ago, the hugely popular star Wen Xuze was exposed for assaulting someone in a bar and ended up in the police station. Caught in a scandal, he fell into depression. When he returned to school to apply for a leave of absence, he happened to meet a boy as dazzling as a bright star.

When the boy recognized him and people began chasing after them, the boy pulled him away from those irritating, inescapable gazes.

Dust swirled in a classroom that hadn't been used for ages. A warm hand covered Wen Xuze's mouth, quieting his ragged breathing.

"Don't panic. Slow your breathing. It's okay, it's okay..." His voice was gentle, his fingertips carried the scent of sunshine, and his large, round eyes reflected Wen Xuze's disheveled appearance.

When they met again, the boy had shed all his color and wrapped himself in a hard shell of indifference.

Wen Xuze patiently laid a beautiful trap and waited nearby for the boy to stumble into it.

[One Upcoming Story] "Deception Limit": ABO, divorce first, then fall in love much, much later.

-

Our marriage was built from one lie after another. Once the deception limit was reached, our contractual marriage came to an end.

-

Pei Nian, the Omega everyone in Lugang City desired, suddenly announced that he was marrying someone he'd known for less than six months, a man he met at a dance. His partner was an internationally renowned swimming champion who held multiple world records in freestyle.

A socialite and a world champion: they should have been a couple everyone envied.

But when their marriage was announced, Lu Fengsen was caught up in a suspension scandal, so many people advised Pei Nian not to take such a bad deal.

Pei Nian laughed casually and said, "He's the one getting the short end of the stick."

-

Pei Nian got pregnant. He was holding his pregnancy test results, about to tell his husband, when the other man beat him to it and pulled out a divorce agreement.

"The term of our marriage contract is up."

Pei Nian froze for a moment, then signed the divorce papers with a bitter smile.

But Lu Fengsen found he wasn't as happy as he had expected. Pei Nian left his world as quietly as he had entered it.

"I used to swim forward with all my strength to win a gold medal."

"After leaving you, I swam forward with all my strength just so you could see me."

-

"Why are you always hiding here by yourself?"

"I'm not hiding. I just want a quiet place to read."

"But you're not reading at all. You've been watching me swim this whole time."

Young Pei Nian's ears turned red, and he glared at the boy in front of him.

"I can look at whoever I want. What does it have to do with you? Do you even know who I am?"

"No," the boy replied honestly, shaking his head.
