I Dumped a Top-Tier Star on Graduation Day

A Korean top-tier star who has been plotting for a long time x the heir to a powerful Beijing family

Lin Yubai is a Chinese student in Korea, a senior in college who's there to experience life. A flamboyant peacock with a sharp tongue, he's also the heir to a powerful Beijing family, with just four months left until graduation.

His goal is to keep his identity secret, coast through graduation, then return to China and inherit the family fortune.

As for how to spend those four months? He'd originally planned to quietly laze around.

Until he met Yin Canhe at a nightclub, a top-tier Korean actor with a cold face that says, "All of Korea owes him money."

Lin Yubai got himself drunk, worked up his courage, and, confident in his good looks, went over to flirt. "Hey, I'm graduating soon, and I don't want to have any regrets. I really like your... physique. Would you be willing to have a sleep-together arrangement with me?"

Yin Canhe said nothing. He took off his jacket, draped it over Lin Yubai's shoulders, and took the drunk back to his home.

Lin Yubai asked Yin Canhe, "Are you willing to do what I just asked?" Willing to have a sleep-together arrangement with him.

Yin Canhe said, "I am." He meant he was willing to be in a relationship with him.

Things spiraled out of control because of a series of misunderstandings and cross-channel conversations.

One of them thought they were dating for real, while the other thought he'd found himself a top-tier star for a casual hookup.

On graduation day, Lin Yubai planned to confess his feelings to Yin Canhe. If it didn't work out, he could fly straight back to China and never have to face him again.

But when he called, Yin Canhe said, for once, that he was busy. Then Lin Yubai heard the ambiguous voice of Yin Canhe's rumored partner on the other end, asking, "Should we get a room?" Yin Canhe even replied, "No need. We can just do it at home."

What a suggestive conversation. In a fit of anger, Lin Yubai deleted every way of contacting Yin Canhe. The next day, he decisively packed his suitcase and flew straight back to China to inherit the family business.

Yin Canhe stood in front of the decorated room, staring silently at the flowers in his hands for a long time. Beside him, his cousin, who was also the rumored partner in question and had been about to set off party poppers, asked, "Bro, is sister-in-law... still coming?"

After returning to China, Lin Yubai had a fortune worth tens of millions in hand. He invested in the film and television industry and expanded the family's business empire.

One day, he invested in a major Chinese-Korean co-production. At the opening banquet, the moment he walked in, he saw someone sitting at the main table across from him.

Starring: Yin Canhe

Yin Canhe's gaze cut through the crowd and fixed on Lin Yubai, as if he wanted to swallow him whole.

After the party, Yin Canhe dragged him into the stairwell. The door shut, the motion-activated light went out, and in the darkness, only their mingled breathing could be heard.

"Lin Yubai." Yin Canhe's voice was so hoarse it was almost unrecognizable. "Why did you leave without a word back then? Why did you abandon me?"

"We were casual sex partners," Lin Yubai said coldly. "We weren't in a relationship. How could you call that being abandoned?"

There was three seconds of silence in the dark.

Yin Canhe's voice trembled with disbelief. "...What did you say?"

*Both are sexually and emotionally inexperienced.
