Bundled Business

Gu Xi and Mu Bai are stuck sharing every resource because they wound up with the same washed-up manager. They share an assistant, livestream together, appear on the same shows, and even have to squeeze onto the same Weibo trending spot because their manager can only afford to buy one. The trouble is, their personalities and interests are worlds apart. Their livestreams often look like this: Gu Xi explains musical genres while Mu Bai analyzes sheep breeds; Gu Xi shares singing tips while Mu Yuanbai teaches viewers how to deliver piglets; Gu Xi recommends classic movies while Mu Bai raves about the latest anime; Gu Xi sings Italian opera while Mu Bai sings "Curved Eyelashes"; Mu Bai, son of an agricultural and livestock tycoon: "Sure, this guy loves showing off, but his family has fallen apart and he has nowhere to go. I guess I'll help him out." Gu Xi, son of a hotel magnate who was forced to inherit the family business or lose his allowance: "Whatever. Kids from the countryside have it rough. I'll let it slide." At first, their respective solo fans fought in the comments every day. Mu fans: "That show-off keeps riding Bai Bai's livestream popularity! Shameless! Get lost!" Gu fans: "Ballball, you country bumpkin, stop dragging our Xiao Xi down! Shameless! Get lost!" Then one day, Gu Xi and Mu Bai got paired up as a couple, earning the nickname "Highbrow and Lowbrow, Something for Everyone." The strange chemistry between them somehow turned their solo fans into CP fans overnight, and the craze spread like a virus through the entire entertainment industry. CP fans: "Oh my! The chemistry is so intense, it's ridiculously addictive!" Highbrow, refined top X lowbrow, down-to-earth bottom (not really) <- [P.S. The author knows what these terms mean, so don't argue about it.] ----------Coming Soon----------- "The Assistant Is a Top-Tier Star" Tang Yuan, a top-tier young actor, abruptly announced that he was terminating his contract and leaving the entertainment industry at the peak of his career. The internet erupted. Then someone revealed that after terminating his contract, Tang Yuan had become the assistant to film emperor Jian Jiao. Netizens said it couldn't be true! Not long afterward, paparazzi confirmed the rumor. [Shocking! Top-Tier Young Actor Tang Yuan Quits Showbiz to Become Film Emperor's Assistant!] From then on, Tang Yuan disappeared from the screen, apparently becoming Jian Jiao's assistant for real. Every so often, rumors surfaced online about Jian Jiao bullying his assistant. "Jian Jiao makes his assistant eat leftovers." "Jian Jiao shoves his assistant at the airport for stealing the spotlight." "Jian Jiao angrily berates his assistant backstage at a show and kicks him out on the spot!" "Why is the popular film emperor tormenting a former top-tier young actor? A look back at their years of love and hate!" Then, during a live report from a reporter visiting a film set, the reporter opened the door to the break room and found Tang Yuan asleep with his head on Jian Jiao's lap, covered by Jian Jiao's costume! When he saw the reporter, Film Emperor Jian raised a finger to his lips. The reporter, live on air: "..." Netizens: "????? What happened to all that love and hate!!!" Jian Jiao: "Sorry. There is no love, hate, or grudge." The whole entertainment industry thinks Jian Jiao bullies Tang Yuan. Only Tang Yuan knows how good Jian Jiao is to him. If I lose my way in this glittering, indulgent world, you will be my one and only lighthouse.
