Senior, Aren't You Coming to Dive Into Me Yet?

By nature, the guileless always get the better of the scheming. A wolf-and-rabbit romance in showbiz, with both taking turns in control!

First meeting: grade-schooler X college student. Reunion: rookie actress X genius Best Actress.

A sincere younger woman who looks at dogs as if they're the love of her life X a refined scoundrel in gold-rimmed glasses. Six-year age gap.

Lin Qixing couldn't for the life of her figure out how she'd fallen into Chu Guiyi's trap.

At the time, she'd been blacklisted and shelved, then betrayed in the worst way. Her senior, Chu Guiyi, cleared up everything with just five words. Lin Qixing realized then what Chu Guiyi was planning behind those gold-rimmed glasses.

After all, a nobody like her wasn't worth a sincere answer.

So why was the Best Actress taking so long to make a move?

Chu Guiyi gave Lin Qixing an exclusive contract, kept pushing top-tier opportunities her way, and spoiled her with special treatment.

Yet she still spoke to her with perfect manners, always proper and upright.

Lin Qixing was baffled. She simply started treating Chu Guiyi as a subject for studying acting, watching her intently whenever she had the chance.

And with Lin Qixing's dark eyes making even dogs feel adored, Chu Guiyi couldn't hold back.

At last.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, fireworks and cheers welcomed the New Year. Inside, their entwined silhouettes and stifled gasps reflected in the glass, while Lin Qixing's hands were pinned down hard.

Chu Guiyi took off her glasses and shed her sanctimonious facade.

"If you don't remember, so be it. Did you really think I was some kind of gentleman, after provoking me like that?"

Her tie brushed between Lin Qixing's fingers and slid deeper. At last, Lin Qixing got to see what kind of beastly scoundrel lay beneath that refined exterior.

They both fall hard! Sweet, not angsty!

Chu Guiyi (kindly): Go win your fortune.

Lin Qixing (resolute): Wealth can't corrupt me!

A crafty, honest poor girl X a haughty rich lady with money to burn

Xia Chennuo is a second-year graduate student in pharmacy, specializing in... getting beaten down by society!

She'd just found a part-time job and nearly got scammed. Turning away, she went into an unattended convenience store to buy a cheap meal, only to discover it was actually a shop for adult products.

The exit button suddenly stopped working. After finally getting in touch with the owner to open the door, she discovered that the owner was the older woman she'd been a jerk to back in college.

That older woman still had the same languid, haughty, nine-tone Cantonese accent. But when she spoke, Xia Chennuo's back went cold. "Found you."

As cool and dazzling as ever, Zhen Yinyan had grown even more stunning in the two years they'd been apart. But her gaze was distant, and she clearly didn't recognize Xia Chennuo.

Xia Chennuo cowered like a puppy, thinking she could escape this hunt for a beauty, but still fell for the words: "Dare to come home with me right now?"

She might lack other kinds of courage, but Xia Chennuo had no shame when it came to lust.

After a night of passion, Xia Chennuo pretended to ask about the older woman's recent life.

Zhen Yinyan: I've been studying wellness lately.

Nuonuo (shocked): Studying graduate students?

*

A new market opened in Sai Ying Pun, and Xia Chennuo found [a gazillion] jobs there.

1. Selling pop-up blind boxes, each of which comes with a surprise older woman.

Zhen Yinyan: Oh, that's our brand.

2. Making jianbing, then suddenly getting an order for breakfast for an entire building after a week of losing money.

Zhen Yinyan: Ah, that's just our employees' everyday perk.

...Even when Xia Chennuo worked as an NPC in a haunted house, the "offering" who crushed the players to come see her at the end was Zhen Yinyan.

Zhen Yinyan cornered Xia Chennuo on a lotus throne, hooked a finger under her chin, and said softly, "My lady immortal, I have both money and sweetness."

"Why did you dump me out of nowhere?"
