[Contract Romance] [Bickering Couple] [Sweet Romance]
[The rich playboy hired me to be his fake girlfriend, but all I want is to empty his wallet]
[My former classmate wanted revenge on me, but unexpectedly turned into a hopeless romantic...]
A haughty, scheming rich playboy vs. a laid-back, sharp-tongued nobody actress
The media reports: "Jiang Cunxu, heir to a top-tier wealthy family, has a new flame. He spent the night with a barely known actress from the eighteenth tier."
-
Le Yun is a nobody actress who doesn't fight for attention, only trying to survive in the cracks, until she accidentally walks into the wrong room...
When she wakes up, she feels as though a truck has run her over.
Her mind explodes. Did she really sleep with her former classmate, someone she'd never liked and had a grudge against?!
Jiang Cunxu sits leisurely across from her. His collar is rumpled in a way that leaves much to the imagination. His relaxed air comes naturally, and his eyes are calm. "How about a deal, little nobody from the middle of nowhere?"
"I refuse."
"We pretend to date, and I'll pay you a salary." Jiang Cunxu offers her an enticing cash deal.
"Who are you looking down on? You think I need your measly pocket change?"
He names a new figure.
"Boss, when can I start?"
In the end, even a strong backbone can't compete with money.
Later, Le Yun leaves the entertainment industry, prompting a wave of speculation.
Everyone says she's fallen out with the young master of the Jiang family, and that it's basically the same as being blacklisted. Leaving the industry is just a nicer way to put it.
One afternoon, everyone is stunned to see Jiang Cunxu, usually ruthless and brazen, working as a salesperson outside a little shop.
The shop's owner is Le Yun, the very woman everyone says was blacklisted.
He beams, his eyes shining, and puts on a pitiful expression. "Boss, I haven't gotten today's kiss yet."
Le Yun always says Jiang Cunxu is just getting revenge for their old grudge, and for a while, he believes it too.
Then it dawns on him: being with Le Yun is the fulfillment of his wish.
A few quick notes: 1. One-on-one romance, and both leads are each other's first and only partner.
2. This isn't purely an entertainment-industry story. The heroine will change careers later.
3. The blurb may be revised later.
Theme: Everything moves me.
