Your Generation of Ship Fans Is Hopeless

--Blurb-- The danmei drama co-starring Ying Weixing and Jiang Yilin unexpectedly became a hit. The CP fans were over the moon. They didn't dare hope the two would go all out promoting their real-life relationship; they only asked for a little sweetness from their characters now and then during promotions. Later, the CP fans were like: Holy crap, girls, maybe we can ship them even more boldly! Are we really getting all this for free? Have you ever seen CP fans get fed sugar straight from the stars themselves? Hahaha, we're hooked! Then, not long after the show finished airing, the CP fans were like: Wait, we haven't finished clipping all the sweet CP moments, why have you two already made it official? What is this luxury-car speed? You're speeding through the turns, we can't keep up! You've never seen CP fans fall behind the stars' official-announcement schedule when it comes to shipping, have you? Hahahahahaha, we're losing our minds! We shipped the real thing!!!

Furious, Yan Qi looked into him and found out he was a notorious playboy who had used and abandoned plenty of people.

At his first sight of the scumbag, Yan Qi thought: Holy crap, do scumbags come this well-equipped these days? He's exactly my type. After starting to seduce him, Yan Qi thought: Good grief, the scumbag really knows his stuff. I'm about to lose control! Later, Yan Qi struggled to keep himself in check: I can't do this anymore. I have to put my plan to dump him into action, or I won't be able to keep my heart in check. Later still, Yan Qi wavered: ...Actually, it doesn't seem like he likes me that much yet. I need to keep playing him a while longer, or I won't be able to deal the scumbag a serious blow in the end! One day, Yan Qi decided the time was right. Yan Qi: Yi Lixing, I'm dumping you. Yi Weixing: Oh? Who's Yi Lixing? Are you two-timing me? You little scumbag. Yan Qi: ...? -Yi Weixing met a boy he thought was impossibly adorable, someone who hit every one of his soft spots.
