The Neighbor Is My Dating Buddy

share time: 2025-10-20 00:30:22

Su Wan, a socially anxious screenwriter of sweet romance dramas, is tearing her hair out over crafting "authentic romantic chemistry." Lin Chuan, the beauty blogger who just moved next door, is even more miserable—he’s hiding in the stairwell eating instant noodles to escape his family’s relentless marriage pressure. When they accidentally uncover each other’s troubles, they strike a deal: become "dating buddies." Su Wan helps Lin Chuan fend off his family’s nagging, while Lin Chuan acts as her "love prototype" for script inspiration. But their fake relationship soon feels too real: Lin Chuan automatically carries heavy grocery bags for her, leaves a warm glass of milk when she pulls all-nighters writing, and even slips her hand into his pocket to keep it warm at a friend’s party… When "buddies" turn into habit, and pretend care becomes instinct, both panic—they agreed it was "just a favor," but now, who can tell if it’s still an act, or if their hearts are already in it?
