[Entertainment industry + two equally powerful top-tier stars + livestreamed dating show + face-slapping the scumbags + mutual healing]
Duan Xingyan shot to fame as a teenager. He is the leader and visual center of the rising group FIVE, and unquestionably a top-tier star of the new generation.
Recently, however, paparazzi exposed rumors that he was dating a little-known celebrity from the bottom ranks of the industry.
The woman involved, Lin Xiyue, says, “Please, can we stop calling me some obscure nobody?” You want to mock her? Too bad. Her flawless performance on a music show kept her at the top of the trending charts for seven days. She won a Golden Melody Award and became a leading star in the K-pop scene, signed with a renowned director and made a successful comeback as an award-winning actress, and even won a national gold medal in women’s figure skating at an international sports competition... So what if she has a few billion secret identities?
One day, a reporter interviewing her backstage at an awards ceremony asks, “What is your relationship with the top-tier star surnamed Duan?” Lin Xiyue smiles faintly. “I don’t know him.”
The next day, Duan Xingyan posts a melancholy message on Weibo, seemingly alluding to actress Lin: “You stirred up a pool of starlight and became my moon. I want the moon, I want the world to surrender, and I want to be by your side.”
Lin Xiyue angrily reposts it: “Can you stop hiding in the bathroom playing on your phone!”
