In 2022, he starred in the coming-of-age television series Shining for One Thing.{{Cite web|title=《一闪一闪亮星星》定档1月26日 跨时空爱恋倒计时_林北_张万森_展宇|url=https://www.sohu.com/a/www.sohu.com/a/517051547_120686091|access-date=2022-02-04|website=www.sohu.com|language=en}}

In 2019, after the release of The Wandering Earth, Qu's previous social media activities came under scrutiny. These included his involvement in online groups related to PUA and stalking, as well as his anti-gay and anti-feminist statements.{{Cite web |title=《流浪地球》带火《媚者无疆》，屈楚萧一路开挂红到招黑 |url=https://www.yangtse.com/content/673878.html |access-date=2024-05-19 |website=www.yangtse.com}}

In July 2018, Qu established his own studio, leading to a tense relationship with his agency, Top High Pictures. By late March 2020, despite Qu having already started martial arts training for the role, he was replaced as the male lead in the costume drama The Long Ballad, with Leo Wu stepping in as a substitute. On March 27, Qu posted an Instagram story expressing gratitude to the director and crew for their support while jeering at Top High's alleged attempts to blacklist him by forcing his replacement due to contractual disputes.{{Cite web |title=吳磊《長歌行》開拍前3天才緊急救援接演男一 卻因1件事差點被播出平台封殺 -- 上報 / 流行 |url=https://www.upmedia.mg/news_info.php?Type=196&SerialNo=155433 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221001032904/https://www.upmedia.mg/news_info.php?Type=196&SerialNo=155433 |archive-date=2022-10-01 |access-date=2024-07-07 |website=Up Media |url-status=live}}{{Cite web |last=网易 |date=2020-03-28 |title=屈楚萧发文疑怼经纪公司喜天 新剧角色或遭替换 |url=https://www.163.com/ent/article/F8Q1825900038FO9.html |access-date=2024-07-07 |website=www.163.com}}

In April 2020, Qu and actress Wan Zilin were photographed on a date in Beijing. However, Qu denied the relationship on Weibo. A few minutes later, Wan posted on Weibo, "I was just told that I had a breakup. Thank you for your concern."

Four days later, Li Fan (Helen), who identified as Qu's ex-girlfriend, published payment records of Qu's hush-money and photographs of her whip marks and bruises, claiming that she had been abused by Qu in their relationship.{{cite web|url=https://www.orientaldaily.com.my/news/entertainment/2020/04/24/337516|script-title=zh:屈楚萧前女友再爆料　控诉男方变态行径|date=April 24, 2020|website=Oriental Daily|language=zh}} In December 2020, another woman made similar claims, alleging that she had been physically abused and thus suffered a miscarriage. The second woman later posted a phone recording in which she was threatened by Qu's agent, but also admitted that she had never been pregnant. Both women claimed that they became depressed and suicidal because of Qu. Qu's lawyers denied all the allegations while his agent claimed the recording was "maliciously edited."{{cite web|url=https://ent.sina.com.cn/s/m/2020-12-24/doc-iiznezxs8761427.shtml|script-title=zh:疑似屈楚萧女友晒瘀伤照 自曝遭殴打导致流产|date=December 24, 2020|website=Sina|language=zh}}{{Cite web |title=前女友晒录音证据称受到威胁，屈楚萧律师回应：女方索要钱财未果，录音系恶意剪辑 - 上游新闻·汇聚向上的力量 |url=https://www.cqcb.com/entertainment/2021-01-07/3538328.html |access-date=2024-05-19 |website=www.cqcb.com}}

Qu's vehicle Shining for One Thing (2023), the film adaptation of his breakout TV drama of the same name, grossed over 70 million yuan in pre-sale box office on December 5, 2023, making it China's highest first-day pre-sale box office earner. By December 15, half a month before its official release, the total pre-sale box office had surpassed 250 million yuan. However, by December 16, over one million people had received refunds on Maoyan and Tao Piao Piao, two of China's largest ticketing platforms, with an average refund rate of 18.1% across both platforms. During the New Year's holiday period, Shining for One Thing achieved a first-day box office of 400 million yuan and 326 million yuan on the second day. On the third day, the box office dropped to 57 million yuan, a steep decline of nearly 83%. Both the abnormally high refund rate for pre-sale tickets and the steep box office decline after release led to allegations of box office inflation and fraud.{{Cite web |title=《一闪一闪亮星星》成2023年预售票房冠军 曾因高退票率被疑票房"注水" _ 东方财富网 |url=https://finance.eastmoney.com/a/202312192937834828.html |access-date=2024-07-05 |website=finance.eastmoney.com}}{{Cite web |title=《一闪一闪亮星星》内容注水，口碑暴跌，纯靠营销的吃相太难看 |url=https://ent.ifeng.com/c/8W1ZiFYu6lB |access-date=2024-07-05 |website=ent.ifeng.com |language=zh}}
