When Jiang Xubai woke up, he found himself hated by the entire internet.
Sexual misconduct with female performers, lip-syncing at a concert, plagiarism of a new song.
Three trending topics sat at the top of the charts, each marked with a blood-red "Explosive" tag.
His company gave him seventy-two hours: apologize, pay compensation, terminate his contract, and transfer all his works.
He refused to sign. The company's vice president was the one who had actually abused his power, and Jiang Xubai was the only person with evidence.
At that moment, top-tier star Gu Chenchuan handed him a contract: publicly pretend they had been dating for three months in exchange for a lawyer, security, and a chance to survive the next seventy-two hours.
Jiang Xubai signed. He thought he was only using Gu Chenchuan.
That was, until he turned off all the backing tracks in front of the livestream cameras and sang a song no one had ever heard before. The trending topics went out of control overnight.
