Matchmaker's Guide to Getting a Job [Reunion After Years Apart]

[Strategic Elite Man] X [Vibrant Matchmaker]

Both are each other's first and only. He has a secret crush on her, and the elite man's schemes have layers upon layers.

Blurb:

Chu Yitong is a renowned matchmaker in H City. With her finely honed ability to read people and her silver tongue, she has thrived in the matchmaking business, with everything going smoothly.

That is, until one day, a cold call to find new clients reached the phone of her college classmate, Murong Bin. Confident Chu Yitong was about to suffer the worst defeat of her three-year career.

After fifteen matches, she still hadn't found a suitable romantic partner for her old classmate, a tall, handsome man with long legs and a comfortable financial situation.

Chu Yitong was so frustrated at letting such a top-tier prospect go to waste that she even began to doubt her own abilities.

“What exactly are you looking for? Don't say ‘someone who feels right.’ That's too vague. Can't you be more specific?”

Murong Bin sat in front of Chu Yitong's desk, gazing intently into her limpid eyes. Hiding his true feelings behind a teasing smile, he said, “You tell me.”

After they married, Chu Yitong was curled up in Murong Bin's arms watching a movie. As she looked at the familiar faces of the new generation of actresses on the screen, it suddenly dawned on her: the high-quality female clients who had flocked to her company in its early days, as well as all the women who had gone on dates with Murong Bin, had actually been actresses newly signed by her husband's company, all pretending to be clients!

It wasn't that her husband had repeatedly failed to meet someone he liked through matchmaking. From the very beginning, she had been his only target.

He had deliberately gotten close to her, carefully laid his plans, and kept a close watch on the men around her, until he finally won her over.

Looking back now, every step after their reunion had been a cleverly laid trap, until he quietly drew her into his own territory.

Feeling thoroughly duped, Chu Yitong bit her husband's shoulder and complained, “It's all your fault! You made me doubt my own abilities!”

Murong Bin pulled his wife closer, his eyes smiling and his voice indulgent. “All right, all right. I was wrong.”

Still not satisfied, Chu Yitong continued to protest, “And you dared to scheme against me!”

“Wife, I never scheme against you. I simply planned this for a long time and waited for my chance.”

Murong Bin: On a planet with billions of people, where everyone is constantly coming and going, how could there possibly be so many coincidences that kept bringing us closer? It was because I kept making my way to you, again and again, and fighting with everything I had, that I finally got what I wanted after all these years.

Note:

1. The male lead has wanted the female lead for a long time, but she doesn't fall for him at first, so their romance progresses at different speeds.

2. The female lead is single and unmarried in the beginning. She wears a ring only because it's part of her work as a matchmaker. The male lead misunderstands, but still makes his move. He's morally dubious and refuses to back down, competing for her and snatching her away.

3. A heartwarming story. The matchmaking cases and characters in the novel are entirely fictional, so please don't apply them to real life.

[Career-Minded Ballerina] x [Love-Struck Iceberg CEO]

Both are each other's first and only. A second chance after a breakup, because even a good horse likes to return to the old pasture.

After graduating from high school, Jin Shuran moved to the capital on her own to attend university. Her uncle arranged for her to stay with the Meng family.

During her four years at university, Jin Shuran secretly dated Meng Yanzhi, the Meng family's eldest grandson, for three years. They kissed passionately in the secluded corners of the house and danced freely in the sunset by the sea.

In their most tender moments, Meng Yanzhi asked again and again, “Ran, can we make our relationship public? I want to hold your hand openly in front of my parents.”

But every time, Jin Shuran brushed him off with one excuse or another.

Just before graduation, Meng Yanzhi planned a grand proposal. But the ceremony not only went without its leading lady, he was also dumped without warning.

At twenty-two, Jin Shuran resolutely moved out of the Meng home and went abroad. She became the prima ballerina of a renowned international dance company. Her debut was an instant hit, earning widespread acclaim. She embarked on an international tour and became a rising star in the world of ballet.

At twenty-nine, Jin Shuran broke her left leg in a car accident. Old injuries in her ankle and knee, accumulated over the years, flared up, making it impossible for her to perform onstage again.

The career she had pursued all her life was abruptly taken away. A newcomer replaced her as prima ballerina, and she was dropped from the tour entirely. One setback after another left Jin Shuran in agony. She began binge eating and drinking, getting so drunk for the first time in her life in an attempt to escape her pain.

In the dim bar, Jin Shuran leaned against the counter, nearly falling off her bar stool several times because she was drunk.

That night, the weary bird who had soared for seven years before having her wings broken was brought back to her familiar nest once more.

Holding the proposal ring she had accidentally found in the bedside table, Jin Shuran asked softly, “Does this ring still mean anything?”

Meng Yanzhi's face was cold, and his voice trembled. “Jin Shuran, what makes you think I'd foolishly wait for you all my life?”

Meng Yanzhi and Jin Shuran's wedding was grand and lavish. Watching the two of them act so intimately, the Meng family sighed with relief. “We thought Yanzhi would end up alone forever. Who knew that after all the twists and turns, he'd still choose Shuran?”

With her beloved's attentive care, Jin Shuran made excellent progress in her rehabilitation. When she was finally able to return to the stage, she warmly invited her husband to watch her perform.

Jin Shuran nestled against Meng Yanzhi and tugged playfully at his tie. “You'll come, right?”

Meng Yanzhi kept a straight face and his eyes on his documents, his tone indifferent. “We'll see.”

That evening, Meng Yanzhi appeared on time in the front row of the audience, holding a bouquet of Jin Shuran's favorite lilies. Just as he had at every performance over the past seven years, he sat below the stage, watching attentively. He had never missed a single one.
