What?! My Archrival Is a Lucky Charm? Let Me Hug You and Take a Big Sniff

Xu Zhixing was forced by his agent to play lovers with his sworn enemy, Shen Jiyuan.

On the first day of filming, he hooked his arm through Shen Jiyuan’s and grinned mischievously. “Couples usually put their arms around each other like this, right?”

But Shen Jiyuan took his hand. “I think holding hands is more comfortable.”

Xu Zhixing: “…”

Fine. Let’s see which of us can gross the other out first.

He patted Shen Jiyuan on the shoulder. “Shouldn’t you give your sweetheart a goodnight kiss?”

Then he felt a soft touch against his lips…

Crap! He was done with this damn game!

That very night, Xu Zhixing got the only good news he’d received in three months: a luxury brand that had once turned him down came to him and offered him an endorsement deal.

He smugly kissed the koi wallpaper he’d changed to a few days earlier. “Kiss kiss, my little koi. Please keep bringing me good luck from now on.”

But his luck came and went.

After filming a scene where he hugged Shen Jiyuan, a new endorsement came his way.

When Shen Jiyuan took a job and asked for leave, Xu Zhixing cut his foot on a piece of glass.

After filming a kissing scene with Shen Jiyuan, a renowned director offered him a script.

When Shen Jiyuan wasn’t around, something went wrong with a prop on set.

…

Xu Zhixing finally accepted reality: his sworn enemy was his lucky charm.

Fine. He might as well soak up his enemy’s good fortune.

Whenever Shen Jiyuan was around, he went out of his way to cling to him.

When Shen Jiyuan wasn’t there, he secretly wore Shen Jiyuan’s clothes and accessories.

Then one day, paparazzi photographed him having dinner with someone he used to like. Shen Jiyuan came over with a dark expression and demanded, “Why are you going out to eat with someone else while you’re flirting with me?”

Shocked, Xu Zhixing hurried to explain that he’d only been doing it to absorb Shen Jiyuan’s good luck.

Shen Jiyuan: “Fine. You want to absorb my good luck? Then I’ll let you absorb as much as you want, all at once!”
