[Short-fused firecracker bottom x sharp-tongued, openly flirtatious, love-struck top]
Yu Qinglin was a small-time celebrity who couldn’t have been more obscure. His mother was seriously ill, his father was a gambler, his younger sister was still in school, and he himself was prickly. To make money, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and team up with his most hated coworker to film a boys’ love drama.
Before filming: Yu Qinglin insists he’s straight. It’s just a job.
During filming: Is this old fox trying to pull some ghost-story nonsense on him? Why is he acting so flirtatious all day?
After filming: I just fell for the character. I got too immersed in the role. I’ll be fine after I cool off for a while.
He never expected the show to become a hit, turning him from a nobody into a regular on the trending lists.
Well, well, here’s the problem: Yu Qinglin now has to grit his teeth and fake a couple image with his archenemy.
As his fans put it, they were now bound together. The fishy smell of having filmed a boys’ love drama would never wash off him.
Yu Qinglin refused to accept that!
He worked himself to the bone, auditioning and taking roles. Even when appearing on variety shows, he carefully picked ones where he could keep his distance, all so he could get rid of that fishy smell.
Even after his status rose, his life was nothing but bouncing between drinking parties and filming sets. It felt like he was either a workhorse or livestock.
Yu Qinglin couldn’t take it anymore. He caused a scene at a banquet, punched a sponsor, and kicked his agent.
The video “accidentally” leaked, and for a while, he was unstoppable.
Who cares? Yu Qinglin would do what made him happy first.
After his career hit rock bottom once again, he somehow ended up sleeping with his archenemy.
What the hell kind of life is this!!!
Oh, I was the one who got fucked.
Well then, this fucked-up life...

Li Suiyu thinks Yu Qinglin is always trying to seduce him.
On the talent show, whenever Li Suiyu passed by, Yu Qinglin’s gaze would drift toward him, ever so subtly. But as soon as Li Suiyu looked over, Yu Qinglin would glare back at him like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
Every now and then, they would bump into each other at the stairwell corners. Very frequently, actually.
Usually, Yu Qinglin would angrily stomp on his foot.
Leaving behind a scent he could never forget.
Li Suiyu wanted to understand Yu Qinglin, so he took a role in a boys’ love drama with him.
After a while, Li Suiyu reached a conclusion: Yu Qinglin really did like him!
At the wrap party, Li Suiyu took advantage of the alcohol and confessed to Yu Qinglin. Yu Qinglin didn’t dare look at him, but he didn’t reject him either. He just left a handprint on Li Suiyu’s face.
Li Suiyu’s reaction: What a spicy wife. I love it. Yummy yummy 😋
Content warnings:
They’re not really archenemies. They’re just people who dislike each other, but the cover was commissioned too early, and the words are already on it, so I can’t change it.
One-on-one, bickering couple on opposite sides, cold-faced cutie and shameless flirt.
Filming in the first half, promotions and variety shows in the second.
