I Heard I’m Going on a Honeymoon with My Childhood Friend, the Movie Emperor

Does not depending on Big Brother anymore mean I've grown up?

It means Big Brother is useless!

A knowledgeable, atypical daddy-ish big bad wolf actor x a not-so-knowledgeable singer who loves to flirt recklessly like a little fox

Ji Yaoqing has had everything go his way all his life. When he realizes he's fallen for his childhood friend and younger brother, Xiang Mingche, he panics and rushes onto a film set.

After filming wraps, Ji Yaoqing is still worrying about how to seduce him when the most dreamlike moment arrives during the film's promotional tour.

The host asks the lead actors to call their friends and get them to say the new film's title as a way to promote it.

He has just picked up his phone when it rings. With everyone's eyes on him, he raises it to his ear.

"Brother Ji, want to go on our honeymoon with me?"

Ji Yaoqing: ...Something this good actually happens!!!

The actors and director: ...What's the gossip?

The audience at the premiere: ...What's the gossip?

Ji Yaoqing can only hear his own heart, as steady as an old dog, start pounding wildly again. Along with it comes his own voice: "I'd love to. When are we going?"

He knows it's a joke, but he doesn't clear things up right away. It's truly despicable, Ji Yaoqing scolds himself, while secretly rejoicing in the dark.

Just as he'd hoped, the news hits the trending list!

A week later, the two men, whose careers couldn't be more different, young Best Actor Ji Yaoqing and scandal-plagued singer Xiang Mingche, appear together on a variety show from the national broadcaster, A Springtime Journey.

An utterly ordinary travel variety show.

Netizens have plenty to say:

I just want to ask, do they actually know each other? Is this really not just fans shipping them?

Does the internet have no memory? Ji Yaoqing and Xiang Mingche being involved is a recipe for disaster.

I'm not a fan of either of them. I'm just here for the fun, to see this so-called honeymoon variety show.

Soon, the show airs.

Everyone is horrified to discover that things aren't quite as they expected. Xiang Mingche isn't the one clinging to Ji Yaoqing. Instead, Ji Yaoqing is the one clinging possessively to Xiang Mingche, openly "marking his territory." One moment he's smugly showing off their couple status in a game, the next he's sneakily hinting at the intimate payment account they share.

On closer inspection, netizens realize that Xiang Mingche is also openly expressing his affection. One moment he's asking Brother Ji to hold him tight, the next he's acting cute and asking Brother Ji to cook for him. Their feelings are actually mutual!

The fans are dazed. The production team is dazed. Even Ji Yaoqing is a little dazed.

Who could tell whether you two are actually on your honeymoon or not!?

They're both chasing each other!

"What day is November 25? Did you forget?"

"How could I? It's the day we met. 11/25 means 'I want you to love me,' doesn't it?" Xiang Mingche says with an innocent expression, then drops a bombshell.

Caught off guard by the flirtation, Ji Yaoqing's neck turns red. "Yes, it means 'I want you to love me.'"

"Xiang Xiao Che, if I don't have time to come record this show with you..." Ji Yaoqing probes during the show.

Xiang Mingche says regretfully, "Then I'd have to find our mutual friend Hu Che."

Ji Yaoqing panics. "No, I'll do anything you want. Don't ask him. Since when can you switch partners on your honeymoon?"

Xiang Mingche: "You're the one who asked first. Now you're getting worked up."

Ji Yaoqing's eyes light up. Xiang Mingche can't help reaching out to scratch under his chin. "What a good boy, Brother Ji. Just like a puppy!"

Ji Yaoqing: "Woof, woof, woof!"

"I'm really good at packing. You can't make me do nothing!" Xiang Mingche complains, pressing his foot against Ji Yaoqing's chest.

"You're right, that's my fault. You can step on me again in a bit. Put your socks on first." Ji Yaoqing holds Xiang Mingche by the ankle and helps him put on his socks.

Then he kisses the man who's packed and ready to go on a real honeymoon with him. "I've finally got you firmly in my grasp, Xiang Xiao Che. You can be independent, but you can't take away my right to want you to depend on me. If I can't protect you, then I'm useless."

Xiang Mingche's face turns bright red. "If you want to do something, then do it. Who's stopping you...?"

Same-sex relationships are legal in this story.

One-on-one romance, pure love and sweetness, both leads have no prior sexual experience.

Unrelated to reality. I just want to write a sweet story about a couple.

Childhood friends, mutual healing, unspoken love with one taking the lead.
