[Airheaded sweetheart VS sly old fox of a man]
Tang Yuanyuan has a best friend so close they could share a pair of pants.
Her best friend is always right, so...
"That's right, I've fallen in love with two men at the same time," her best friend said with a pained expression.
Unwilling to see her friend suffer, Tang Yuanyuan could only agree to help. Under her friend's trusting gaze, she somehow took on the burden and registered her marriage with her friend's boyfriend.
She would protect her friend's man and be the guardian deity of their love.
"Huo Yanze has a cold. Go check on him for me."
"Huo Yanze drank too much. Go take care of him."
"Huo Yanze is going on a business trip. Make sure he doesn't fool around."
"Huo Yanze..."
Tang Bao'er felt that something wasn't quite right, but she couldn't put her finger on what.
Until one night, the man, drunk, stroked the corner of her eye and held her close, nuzzling her as he murmured, "Little Tangyuan."
Her heart raced ten times faster. She tried to break free of his embrace, but in the struggle she accidentally pulled off his open shirt.
The man's body was burning hot. Tang Yuanyuan couldn't bring herself to entertain any improper thoughts. Her mind was filled with just two words: I'm doomed.
Tang Yuanyuan worked up the courage to ask a question in her livestream: What should I do if I've fallen for my best friend's boyfriend?
Viewer A: This is exciting. Tell us more, streamer.
Viewer B: Girl, I get it. There's something magical about your best friend's man.
Viewer C: Don't be foolish, girl. You can only choose one: your best friend or the man!
Tang Yuanyuan decided to learn from this painful experience: Love is precious, but a best friend is worth more.
She thought she had everything under control and was about to confess, but then Huo Xufeng suddenly realized his wife was missing.
For the first time, he was thrown into a panic.
Fan Tangtang, who was practically at risk of getting diabetes from all the sweetness, received a call from someone: "My wife ran away. Go find her for me."
Huh? She'd practically served his wife up to him on a platter. How could she have run away?
What kind of domineering CEO can't even keep track of his own wife?
Huo Yanze always remembered that summer in a foreign land. A rare psychiatric condition kept him awake day and night, and the only way he could get through it was by watching a little streamer called Sesame Tangyuan.
He never said a word, only showered her with money every time.
Eventually, he couldn't hold back anymore. He tried to send her a private message, like the other top donors did, but scared her so badly that she didn't livestream for days.
His desire to see her grew stronger and stronger, until he saw a photo of two girls together on his social media, captioned "best friends, like family."
He knew he had it in the bag.
★ A melodramatic, sugary romance. It's full of tropes, but sweet!
Theme: What you think of as fate is often someone quietly working behind the scenes.
