I Got Pregnant After Grass Sprouted from My Head [Showbiz]

Free Extra 1 is currently updating. You can read it in the author's collection, Grassy Extras. - Ning Feiran is a little-known third-tier celebrity. One morning, he woke up to find a blade of grass growing on his head. An ordinary, unremarkable weed, the kind you see everywhere. The only thing unusual was that it grew right out of his head, and pulling it hurt like crazy. That blade of grass brought Ning Feiran an enormous amount of attention in the entertainment industry. - He appeared in public with grass on his head, and fans showered him with praise. Fans: Our darling is so cute! The grass on his head is so green! Bystanders: Um... I don't know why he's wearing a plant on his head, but he really is cute. Ning Feiran made the trending lists again and again thanks to the grass. Rival: Did he buy a year-long subscription to the trending lists? I've seen people get famous by sucking up to big shots or making outrageous stunts, but how does wearing grass make you famous? Fans: Our darling is such a breath of fresh air! He's so attentive, the little plant has grown just a tiny bit today! I'm obsessed! - Later, Ning Feiran grew closer and closer to Zhou Yi, a big name in the industry. Zhou Yi to everyone else: A pretty face with no talent. Ugly. Bad at his job. A triple dose of cutting remarks. Zhou Yi to Ning Feiran: The costumes and makeup on set weren't good enough, the stage lighting couldn't keep up, and your costar dragged you down. A triple dose of praise and flattery. Onlookers: ??? - Zhou Yi: I'm willing to water the grass on your head every day, wash your hair every other day without touching the grass, and have a botanist check its health every week. If I do all that, will you be with me? Ning Feiran: ...O-okay? After they got married, Zhou Yi, his powerful backer, spent every day wondering how to make Ning Feiran's clueless fans realize he was married. This included, but was not limited to, secretly putting his own shirts in Ning Feiran's closet. Fans: Our darling looks so good in oversized clothes! Zhou Yi: ... Zhou Yi: This batch of fans is collectively blind. Get rid of them. - [Chapters 28-61 are marked as paid chapters. If you've already read them, please don't buy them again.] Content warning: This is an mpreg story. But if you clicked after seeing the title, you can probably handle it, hahaha. There will be no pregnancy in the main story, only in the extras. A gentle, gossip-loving celebrity bottom x a tsundere, smug, impecunious, fussy top. As usual, 1v1, in a fictional setting where same-sex marriage is legal. A sweet story with no angst. If it's not sweet, you get your money back. No real people inspired the characters. The author's knowledge of the entertainment industry comes from gossip news. If anything in the story doesn't make sense, it's because the author's imagination ran wild, hahaha. - A friend's upcoming novel: After Pretending to Be an Alpha, I Was Marked by the School Heartthrob, by Su Qianling. Save it if you're interested! Shen Xingjian, the universally acknowledged school bully, a rebellious teen, and a pure Alpha. Qin Zhong, the newly crowned school heartthrob, who gets so many love letters his hands are full, and a pure Beta. Shen Xingjian thought, I could take on ten Betas like him by myself. Later, the school heartthrob pinned him firmly against the wall. “Why do you smell so sweet?” - The next book will be Let's Ship Them, Anyone Will Do! Save it if you're interested. - Wei Zhinan, a top-tier star and Best Actor, a beloved national heartthrob who started out as a child actor. His fans and haters together could circle the globe. Chi Han, a three-time Golden Award-winning Best Actor, the silver screen's ultimate beauty and an undisputed top movie star who never stoops to television. The two barely knew each other, yet they had a popular crack ship. Shippers: Best Actor x Best Actor, two powerhouses meeting at the top. How could this setup not be irresistible? As a die-hard fan of top pairings, I'm hooked in a second. It doesn't matter whether the stars even know each other. What's important is how fun they are to ship. Bystanders: I'm dying. When it comes to achievements, the Best Actor and the Best Actor crush everyone else. And when it comes to shippers, their crack ship crushes all their other pairings. All you can say is, “How pay.” - The two were invited to appear on the same variety show. In a behind-the-scenes interview for the first episode, they were asked about their ideal partners. Chi Han (dropping a heavy hint): Fair skin, pretty face, slim waist, long legs. Who isn't a sucker for good looks? Wei Zhinan: Someone who knows how to appreciate my inner beauty. When the episode aired, two topics trended: #TotalOpposites# and #GoingInOppositeDirections#. - The two became the “Romance Captain” and “Romance Observer” on a dating show. After a few episodes, viewers voted them the best couple because their chemistry was too strong. Shippers: Is it possible these two are here to teach the other guests how to date? Other guests: ??? - Halfway through the show, a diligent shipper compiled a long list of moments to obsess over. [Alert! I dug through their old posts and found out the Best Actor and the Best Actor went to the same school, two years apart. A senior and a junior! We can ship their campus romance, it's confirmed!] The Best Actor, scrolling Weibo: ??? Wei Zhinan, replying from his alt account: Half the people in the entertainment industry graduated from that school. Ship leader: Sure, but they're a senior and a junior! Sob, he loves him so much! Wei Zhinan: ... [I looked through their recent red carpet appearances, and the Best Actor and the Best Actor both wore accessories by Rov&Soko, one a ring and the other a necklace. They're not from the same collection, but they look so much like matching couple accessories! I've got another ship moment!] The Best Actor, replying again from his alt account: That's because they're both brand ambassadors, and the designer used the same design elements. Ship leader: Sure, but they represent the same brand! Sob, he really loves him so much! Wei Zhinan: ... #WhatDoIDoWhenImTrappedInTheWorldOfShippers# #EveryoneAroundMeIsShippingMeAndTheBestActor# - A few months later, after the show ended, Chi Han invited Wei Zhinan out for dinner. Halfway through their meal, a topic exploded onto the trending lists. Fans had dug up Chi Han's personal Weibo account from his college days. Every post described his journey of secretly loving someone. After reading the trending topic, Wei Zhinan, the person secretly loved, fled in a panic. That night, Wei Zhinan sent the ship leader a private message: Could I ask... if there's any other evidence I could ship? Theme: The protagonists work hard to find success in their careers and love
