The Frail Cousin Is a Strongwoman

Hui Jiangwan is pale and thin, looking as if a gust of wind could blow her away, like a modern-day Lin Daiyu. She also frequently coughs up blood due to her organs failing for an unknown reason. In this frail body, which looks ready to give out at any moment, she joins her cousin, top-tier star Fan Shuyi, on a live-streamed reality show: farming in the countryside and surviving in the wilderness. At first, netizens say: “Seriously? She’s coming on a variety show looking like that? Don’t hold my idol back.” Midway through, netizens say: “His cousin’s not bad. She’s pretty tough.” Later, netizens say: “Ah! His cousin’s on screen! Fan Shuyi, move over a little. You’re blocking our view of her!” A clip: One day, Fan Shuyi gets the sudden urge to live-stream his daily routine with an action camera. When he reaches the gym, he suddenly hears a series of violent coughs. Worried, he immediately dashes over and sees Hui Jiangwan lifting weights while coughing up blood. Netizens: “! Did the camera shake so much that we’re seeing things? Cousin! Do you really have to lift weights? You look like you’re about to keel over!” (This novel contains a male-male romance. Read with caution if that’s not your thing!)
