I'm Dating My Top-Tier Star Ex Again [Entertainment Industry]

Coming soon: "Flirting with Flames" [Marriage Before Love]!

Shi Xing, the entertainment industry's famous actress who rose from humble beginnings.

At eighteen, she was still an extra at a film studio. By twenty-six, she'd already won the Best Actress crown, and fans were hailing her as the protagonist of a modern-day wish-fulfillment story.

Shi Xing thought so too, until she got into a car accident.

The good news: She didn't die, and her soul transmigrated into Lin Shixing, the fiancee of top-tier star Sheng Yu.

The bad news: Lin Shixing and Sheng Yu were together in name only.

What's more, Sheng Yu was her first love, the one she'd always cherished.

Looking at her own face in the mirror, Shi Xing remembered the countless scandals surrounding Lin Shixing and all the resources Sheng Yu had at his disposal.

She decided to start by getting close to Sheng Yu.

Sheng Yu, a top-tier star in the entertainment industry, was rumored to come from a prominent family.

He was blunt, sharp-tongued, and proud. Even when he wasn't giving someone a hard time, he still looked languid and bored, despite fans raving that his face was Nuwa's finest creation.

At his retirement press conference, a reporter asked about the recent rumors linking him to Lin Shixing.

His sharp brows seemed frosted over as he replied coolly, "She and I have nothing to do with each other."

The next day's headlines added plenty of sensational spin:

New darling of the entertainment world, recently cleared of her scandals and back in the spotlight, is pretty on the outside but tried to sleep her way to the top-tier star, who denies everything.

Netizens mocked her, while Sheng Yu's hardcore fans celebrated.

Lin Shixing had hitched herself to him only to end up with nothing.

Yet that very night, Sheng Yu's car sped all the way to the set where Lin Shixing was filming a variety show.

In the room, Sheng Yu's broad hand impatiently climbed her waist as he bit her ear.

"Let's go public. Right now."

Shi Xing had always thought she was merely using someone else's body to get close to Sheng Yu.

Until, on a dimly lit night, drunkenness clouded Sheng Yu's dark eyes.

He bent his knee and pressed toward her, his lowered lashes making him look like a wolf closing in on its prey.

His whisky-scented breath washed over her neck.

His Adam's apple bobbed. At last, unable to hold back, he gripped the back of her neck and kissed her.

After a night of passion, just before dawn,

Sheng Yu lay against her neck, his voice hoarse, like a crow crying blood.

"Shi Xing, you're so cruel."

"What made you think I wouldn't recognize you?"

"It's so unfair. You forgot me, but I couldn't forget you."

[Dark, twisted young master x cool, stubborn beauty]

The day Wen He entered the Bo family of Hong Kong Island, she knew:

Bo Sui was someone she couldn't afford to provoke.

As the head of the Bo family, outsiders said he was handsome and quiet, gentle as jade.

But Wen He, who had been raised by him, knew that Bo Sui was obsessive and gloomy, cold and domineering.

Wen He feared him more than anyone, but never expected that, with the old master's illness worsening, she would have to marry him to compete for the inheritance.

"Everything will be just like before. There's only one thing: from now on, you can't call me your brother."

Bo Sui gazed at her quietly, warmth entering his dark, icy eyes.

The first time she slept beside Bo Sui, Wen He didn't dare open her eyes.

Only when Bo Sui hooked his fingers around hers and pulled her into his arms did she move.

It was clearly a possessive embrace, but the heat of Bo Sui's chest and the heartbeat beside her ear made her feel sheltered and protected.

They would be happy. Wen He almost truly believed Bo Sui was the best husband in the world.

Until, at an art exhibition, Bo Sui paid ten times the price to buy a painting inspired by her, created by her friend.

The young artist's nose was broken by Bo Sui, who then had him secretly sent away from Hong Kong.

Wen He tried to argue on her friend's behalf.

With a sharp crack, the priceless painting was replaced by flames.

Amid the drifting ashes, Bo Sui's gentle smile took on a menacing edge.

"He was thinking about you. With every brushstroke, he was thinking about you. Wen He, maybe I should keep you hidden away."

Wen He was forced to become Bo Sui's shadow, required to stay where he could see her.

Furious and resentful, she deliberately stopped speaking to him, only for him to find ways to make her pay at night.

Her clothes were torn away, and his scorching kisses burned as they landed over her heart.

"It hurts!" Wen He still ended up crying.

She begged Bo Sui to be gentle, but all she got was an even more forceful punishment.

He pinned her down and forced her to respond.

Only at dawn did she hear the man's voice, his kiss landing beside her ear.

"Wen He, bad girls have to be punished. Do you want to kiss me?"

No! Wen He bit him, the taste of blood filling her mouth.

But Bo Sui only held her tighter.

Wen He let go. She wanted to hate him, but his tender wiping and care she couldn't refuse softened her heart again.

Bo Sui was a hedgehog.

On the surface, Wen He had become obedient.

She not only smiled at Bo Sui first, but also kissed him and held him as they fell asleep.

Wen He seemed to have learned to love Bo Sui, and the guards outside the villa grew fewer by the day.

One night, while Bo Sui was out at a business dinner,

Wen He took all her documents and fled to the airport.

She boarded the plane and took her seat. Seeing the clouds, she thought she would soon be free.

Only after the plane landed did she realize that every flight had turned back.

She was right back where she started.

Outside the plane window, in front of a black Maybach, she recognized the familiar figure.

She remembered Bo Sui's warning:

"Wen He, when you're locked to the bed, you'll understand. Freedom is precious."

The cabin door opened, and Bo Sui walked toward her, step by step.

Wen He began to regret refusing the one chance Bo Sui had given her to leave.

Reading Notes:

The leads are not on the same household register and are not related by blood.

Both leads are each other's first and only partners, and both are chaste.

Theme: The road ahead is bright and glorious.
