The Washed-Up Star on a Dating Show: The Best Actor Is My Childhood Friend

[Showbiz “mystic” has-been vs. aloof, sharp-tongued Best Actor] (Dating show + livestreams + childhood sweethearts + sweet romance + devoted couple) The whole internet mocked me, and I was forced to join a dating show as the designated contrast to everyone else. The other female guests were dazzling and talented, while my only role was to trip and embarrass myself as a washed-up “mystic.” The top-tier star thought I brought bad luck, the scheming beauty saw me as a thorn in her side, and the audience flooded the comments with demands that I get out. Then the aloof, sharp-tongued Best Actor Gu Yan made a surprise appearance. He never went near women, yet he gave me special attention: When I tripped, he was the first to reach out. “Don't you watch where you're going?” When someone gave me a hard time, he coldly put them in their place. “You're overacting.” Even the draw for teams seemed to conspire against us, pairing us together for good! The whole internet went wild: #Help! Has the Best Actor been cursed? # Then one day, he cornered me and gazed at me intensely. “That little girl who used to climb trees and steal walnuts from my yard... You really don't remember me?” Me: ??? Help! How did everyone mocking me turn into everyone adoring me? And you, Best Actor, have you completely abandoned your public image or what?!
