Upcoming novel, The Bookworm and the Spoiled Darling, please add it to your collection! Gu Ze awakened. It happened just before he signed the divorce papers with his childhood rival and marriage partner, Yi Yanci. It turned out he was the cannon-fodder top in a melodramatic novel. He fell in love at first sight with the bottom, Qin Xia, ruined his arranged-marriage contract for him, and went head-to-head with the male lead, only to end up with his family destroyed. The hand with which Gu Ze was about to sign suddenly froze. He looked up and met Yi Yanci's calm gaze behind his glasses. In a hoarse voice, he said, “I've changed my mind. Maybe we should think this over.” . Gu Ze and Yi Yanci were childhood friends. They grew up together and couldn't stand each other, but a marriage contract tied them together. Gu Ze was arrogant and rebellious. He looked down on arranged marriages, especially one to an ice-cold human icicle. He longed for love at first sight, and then he met Qin Xia. Gu Ze decided Qin Xia was his true love. He repeatedly defied his parents and left Yi Yanci behind to meet Qin Xia. Gu Ze thought he could have it both ways. After all, Yi Yanci wouldn't take their dates seriously either. Until he awakened and learned: [Every time they had a date, Yi Yanci ordered two cups of pearl jasmine tea at a café in the south of the city and waited from dusk until closing time. The owner often saw him revising the same drawing of jasmine flowers over and over at an empty table.] [Only Yi Yanci knew that the scratch of his pencil across the paper sounded just like the faint rustle of a flower stem against his shirt cuff, years ago, when Gu Ze had cut a pearl jasmine blossom and offered it to him.] [That was how they first met.] Only then did Gu Ze understand that this childhood friend, this little block of ice, had spent years quietly turning his love into calluses on his fingertips. . Qin Xia hadn't seen Gu Ze in a long time, and he was starting to feel uneasy. He waited patiently for Gu Ze to come see him, but in the end, all he received was a wedding invitation. Qin Xia couldn't sit still. For the first time, he went to find Gu Ze, only to see him standing beneath a snow-covered eave with his aloof childhood friend. Gu Ze stood in front of Yi Yanci, shielding him from the wind and snow. He rubbed his hands together to warm them, then covered Yi Yanci's ears. His eyes held a tenderness Qin Xia had never seen before.

Please add them to your collection! The Bookworm and the Spoiled Darling In his previous life, Zeng Yu was a puppet savior elevated to godlike status in a post-apocalyptic world. People worshipped and revered him, staring at him with fervent, nauseating eyes, never knowing that as a bionic human, he had no heart or feelings, and every action he took was dictated by instructions. After he transmigrated, he became an inconsequential NPC in a danmei novel, rooming with the young villainous heir. Zeng Yu enjoyed his life now. He enjoyed his skin, which could bleed red, and his fragile, easily broken heart. He enjoyed being as unnoticed as air when he walked down the street, with no one staring at him with obsessive eyes. The only abnormal variable was this young heir. The young heir was a foolish, spoiled darling. Even though Zeng Yu set the shower to the right temperature every time, something still went wrong, and halfway through his shower the young heir would scream. Then he'd ask Zeng Yu to come in, crouching on the floor and pitifully showing him his injured leg. Zeng Yu had seen it all before. He would usually wipe the fog from his glasses and say expressionlessly, “Put your clothes on first.” But the young heir would angrily yell and slam the door in his face. “Bookworm! Go live with your stinking books for the rest of your life!” Zeng Yu would frown and wonder why the young heir reacted differently from the book when he was following his character setting. It was strange, but when he heard the young heir sobbing softly in the bathroom, Zeng Yu would still bring a towel in and carry the villain out. Otherwise, he'd be stuck in there all night and Zeng Yu wouldn't be able to shower. The young heir would sneak a glance at him with red rabbit eyes. Zeng Yu would see him and think that he was a natural at crying. He'd be better off as an actor than a singer. Before Zeng Yu could make the suggestion, the young heir muttered, “Sleep with me tonight, or I'll hurt my injury.” Zeng Yu: “Oh.” The young heir: “...” I knew it. I hate straight guys the most! o(*≧д≦)o!! Bonus scene After they kissed, Zeng Yu said, “From now on, you're only allowed to do that with me.” The young heir blushed. “What do you mean... Are you confessing your feelings to me?” Zeng Yu: “If that's what you think, then yes.” The young heir immediately bristled. “What does that mean? Are you messing with me?” Zeng Yu: “I'm not messing with you.” The young heir demanded, “Then what do you mean?” Zeng Yu said expressionlessly, “I don't know.” The young heir: “You don't know?” Zeng Yu: “I don't understand confessions, or familial love, friendship, or romantic love.” The young heir was completely furious. “You don't understand anything? Are you a robot or something?” Zeng Yu looked at him in amazement. For the first time, he thought this person was so clever. “You figured it out?” The young heir: “...” I'll punch your lights out. The young heir propped his chin on his hand, gloomy and so angry he wanted to cry. Zeng Yu: “Then let me be more specific.” The young heir turned away, too annoyed to answer. Zeng Yu said seriously, “Out of everyone, you're the only one I want to kiss. And I hope I'm the only one you want to kiss.” The young heir: “...” The young heir: “?” The young heir threw himself into Zeng Yu's arms and sobbed loudly. You little devil. You're so good at sweet-talking, so why were you pretending you couldn't?! A Stalker Follows Me into Showbiz When they were students, the top pursued the bottom, but got caught hiding under his bed and beaten out of the house. Later, after entering showbiz, he pretended to be aloof and acted as if he didn't know the bottom, until the two were cast together in a dual-male-lead film with an intimate scene... The bottom is an older, award-winning actor, more than a decade older, and a guiding, nurturing lover. The top is a creepy, obsessive snake of a man with childhood trauma. Even after he wins the bottom over, he still likes to lie beneath the bed and peek at him. The bottom waits until he falls asleep, then helplessly carries him up and cuddles him. Theme: Find yourself
