List Raymond Chandler

When Ren Hayashi, a quiet and meticulous high school student, learns he has only 19 days left in his senior year to fulfill his bucket list, his predictable life takes an unexpected turn. He’s convinced by his polar opposite classmate, Kai Tanaka—an energetic, reckless prankster—to tackle the list together. Ren’s list is unexpectedly mundane: "Try cafeteria curry," "Play hooky once," and "Confess to my crush." But Kai's flair for chaos turns every simple task into a ridiculous adventure. From sneaking into a neighboring school for a rumored legendary vending machine to accidentally starting a heated dodgeball rivalry, the duo’s antics pull in an eccentric cast of classmates. As the days tick down, Ren begins to see high school—and life itself—from a new perspective. Behind Kai’s reckless smiles is a secret, and Ren finds himself questioning what really matters before graduation arrives. Hilarious, heartwarming, and occasionally bittersweet, *19 Days* captures the fleeting beauty of high school life and the bonds we make along the way.

One sunny day, Shen Jingwei, a Z-list actor, received an opportunity to attend an open-call audition the very next day. It was for the role of an antagonist in a new BL C-Drama, "Dance Of The Dragons", which was adapted from a novel of the same title. He agreed to join the audition due to several factors, among which his manager's threat to jump off the 20th floor, his dire need for money, and also the fact that his rank in the film industry could not go any lower. One look at the panel of judges made him want to turn on his heel to leave, but it was all too late. Because who would expect the poor Z-List actor to meet his mortal enemy/ex-boyfriend, Yan Renzhong, the A-List Actor responsible for his decline long before he even learned how to fly? ------------------ "You and I... are playing a couple of lovers, who will go on to get married and have children with each other." Shen Jingwei could sense blood coming up his throat. What was the point of saying it out loud, again? "Yes," he forced himself to agree nonetheless. Yan Renzhong pinned him with a stare. "We have unresolved issues from the past. I hope you won't let them affect your and my performance in the drama. Act the professional you are supposed to be." "..." "And don't call me 'Emperor Yan' anymore." Yan Renzhong left after delivering one blow after another, not even waiting to see if Shen Jingwei succumbed to his injuries or not. What? Whattt? Whattttttttt?
