The boy band Tenfold has been established for five years. The members have developed independently, and it is rare to record a group song together. In front of the camera, they are teammates with a tacit understanding; behind the camera, Wang Ziheng and Chen Jingzhou rarely even have a complete dinner together.
There is no other reason - they have been secretly married for three years.
With a piece of paper, two people who were too young thought that their love and future could be settled properly by relying on the contract. The result is increasingly skilled avoidance of suspicion, increasingly formulaic interactions, and increasingly clear countdowns to contract expiration.
It wasn't until the Tuan Zong recording scene, during a "random kissing member" game session, that Wang Ziheng avoided Chen Jingzhou and chose someone else.
The loud bang of the microphone hitting the ground, the red eyes, the figure slamming the door away - Chen Jingzhou's emotions that he had suppressed for three years were completely out of control at this moment.
That night, he blocked Wang Ziheng, his eyes were red and his voice was hoarse:
"You can mention the conditions for contract renewal as you like... Don't ask anyone else to act."
Not a question, not an accusation.
It's pleading.
It was frozen for three years and then shattered. It turns out that the contract never only trapped identity and freedom. It turns out that in those back-to-back silences late at night, there are two hearts that are also tossing and turning.
And when they finally mustered up the courage to approach, rumors, malice, and career crises followed one after another——
Chen Jingzhou's choice was to post a Weibo post.
"About Us".
"We are legal spouses. We registered our marriage three years ago."
"He was the one I chose. It hurt me more than he did that he was attacked."
"From today on, I will no longer be silent."
