We Agreed to Pretend to Be Boyfriends, So Why Are You Making It Real?

The thing Li Muxian regrets most in his life is taking one extra look at that bowl of beef noodles in the cafeteria. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been grabbed by the wrist in front of everyone by Ye Jinli, the student council vice president, and forced to become her "contract boyfriend." In public, they're Nancheng University's sweetest couple, holding hands, hugging, and going on dates without missing a thing. In private, they're roommates living together, with three rules: 【No crossing the line】 【No catching feelings】 【No barging into video calls wearing nothing but a T-shirt】 Li Muxian came up with the third rule himself. One morning, Ye Jinli had just woken up. Still half-asleep, she walked into view wearing his T-shirt, one shoulder strap slipping into sight. His mother’s eyes lit up on the other end of the call. "Son, who’s this girl?" Li Muxian: "Just a classmate." Ye Jinli: "You should cover the camera first!" The public embarrassment was only the beginning. When his gentle childhood friend said through tearful eyes, "I've liked you since high school," and when an energetic junior shouted beneath the fireworks, "If I don't say it, I'll regret it for the rest of my life"... Li Muxian had always thought the biggest risk of this contract was that their act might become real. Until one day, a Ferrari pulled up outside the campus gates, and his older sister rolled down the window. "Little bro, take the keys. No more squeezing onto the subway for dates." Ye Jinli slowly turned to him, her gaze dangerous. "So much for being ordinary?" This is the story of a "contractee" who tries to lie flat, only to be dragged by the other party into falling in love. It's also the story of someone loved by the whole world, who resolutely chooses only one person.
