A Diary Hidden In The Attic

Renowned award-winning actress Cheng Yuan'ai and Lu Wu, a notorious pretty face with no talent in the entertainment industry, are famously at odds.

Whenever Lu Wu appears somewhere, if Cheng Yuan'ai is present, people are guaranteed to see her brows furrow tightly before she hurries away, unwilling to linger even a moment longer.

When a dating reality show paired them up as a CP, everyone secretly snickered, anticipating just how badly the two would clash once filming began. Little did they know that the two shared a secret past.

Back in high school, Cheng Yuan'ai had once been Lu Wu's little follower. For two years, she trailed after Lu Wu wherever she went. If Lu Wu told her to go east, she would never dare go west.

Everyone assumed that Cheng Yuan'ai must hate Lu Wu to the core.

Yet, under the cover of night, away from prying eyes, Cheng Yuan'ai would affectionately nuzzle Lu Wu's hand, gazing at her with longing in her eyes.

"Sister, please love me."

The scent of pheromones permeated the air.

Lu Wu would always smile, her bright eyes sparkling as she pinched Cheng Yuan'ai's cheek, seemingly brushing off her plea with a show of affection.

"Be good. Do as you're told."

"—And I'll like you very much."

It wasn't until the day the dating show began that Lu Wu took her first proper look at Cheng Yuan'ai, who was now completely different from the small, skinny girl she remembered from high school.

Colder, more unapproachable, like a snow-covered mountain shrouded in solitary clouds, utterly devoid of human warmth.

Lu Wu regarded their pairing as nothing more than an ordinary publicity arrangement. After exchanging a few words with Cheng Yuan'ai, she left to chat enthusiastically with the other guests. For several days afterward, they barely interacted.

Until one night, when Lu Wu returned to her room. Before she could even climb into bed in the darkness, she heard Cheng Yuan'ai's voice coming from her bed, cold and venomous as a snake.

"Sister, have I been obedient?"

Rich, heady pheromones pressed in on her from every direction, overwhelming her.

"How much longer do you expect me to keep obeying you?"

"You know there are conditions attached to my obedience. It's time for you to renew our arrangement. What are you planning to use to deceive me this time?"

You know why I willingly endure it all. Please don't stop loving me.
