Ruan Lingyi, 28, was a serious actress. Five years ago, she and Wen Dai worked together on a hit drama. He won every major Best Actor award, while she went home empty-handed.
She held a grudge for five years. He never even noticed.
Five years later, they were both cast on the same dating show, broadcast live from start to finish.
Ruan Lingyi gritted her teeth and accepted. She wanted the whole country to see that the judges had been blind back then.
On the first day of filming, she brought an "eighteen-year-old little brother" to the set. His surname was Wen, and his name was Wen Che.
Comments: "Sis, your surname is Ruan. Why does your little brother's surname sound like Wen?"
Backstage, Wen Dai politely stopped her. "Miss Ruan, your little brother was staring at me for ages just now. He said I look a lot like him."
Ruan Lingyi: "...What else did he say?"
Wen Dai: "He said you and I look like a married couple."
Ruan Lingyi nearly crumpled her script.
Wen Che poked his head out from behind the door. "Sis, I was telling the truth."
That night, Wen Dai received a paternity test report at his hotel. The person who delivered it left him a message: "Don't let her know you saw this."
Wen Dai stood in the hallway in silence for three minutes, then sent Ruan Lingyi a message: "Your little brother's interesting. Want to get dinner together sometime?"
Ruan Lingyi replied with four words: "My brother is busy."
Wen Dai looked at his phone and smiled.
The way she held a grudge was pretty interesting.
