I Shipped My Boy Bandmates, and Now I’m Socially Dead

This novel will be premium from June 20. Li Chu transmigrated into a book. He ended up in a novel about a boy band idol group. The group had five members and two couples. He was the lonely fifth wheel. As the fifth member, Li Chu was awkwardly positioned in the group, and his teammates were always annoyed with him, thinking he was in the way. Li Chu had no choice but to throw himself into his idol career, working diligently until he finally rose to become the group's ace and its most popular member. In his spare time, he could always ship a couple or two to spice up his life. Gentle, domineering teammate A X short-tempered, cool guy teammate B Ship it! Sadistic, scheming beauty teammate C X aloof, untouchable teammate D So good, so good! Li Chu was an idol by day and a major fanfic creator in the CP fandom by night. Was there anything more thrilling and fun than shipping couples right in front of you? Yes! When his teammates discovered the fanbooks he'd bought and written himself. Li Chu looked at the familiar yet strange faces of his four teammates. Li Chu: Weak, pitiful, and helpless. Teammate A opened the book and studied the positions, then smiled. "So this is the kind of thing you like me doing?" Thinking of teammate A as the domineering CEO in the book, Li Chu's heart gave a tremor. Teammate B gritted his teeth. "Looks like you've really misunderstood me. We'd better clear up this little misunderstanding." Li Chu: We can just talk it out! No need to get physical! Teammate C pointed to his sadistic portrayal in the book and relaxed. "I was worried I might scare you in real life. Looks like you've already prepared yourself for that." Li Chu: I haven't prepared myself for anything! Teammate D's gaze moved between Li Chu and the book. A crack finally appeared in his perpetually icy expression. "There aren't any about the two of us?" Li Chu: Is that really the point?! Li Chu's books were confiscated. From then on, his teammates carefully bought books about themselves X Li Chu and fed them to him every day. Teammates: Want to read them? Li Chu: No! Teammates: Then we'll act it out. Li Chu: !!! Coming soon: "After Faking My Death in an Online Game, My Ex-Husband Came Looking for Me" Gu Xingshuang's roommate gave him an abandoned game account, and Gu Xingshuang logged in to find it was a female character. So what if it was a female character? A game was a game. The character had a CP. So what if it had a CP? He could just break up with them. The CP was a big shot. Just a big shot. Gu Xingshuang planned to dump him. Who could have guessed that this big shot, rumored to be cold and obscenely rich, would act cute and clingy in front of him, all while seeming fragile and sensitive? Cold parents, a broken family, and cold cash. He was so sensitive. The only warmth in his life was his in-game CP, who was none other than Gu Xingshuang. Gu Xingshuang: ... Damn it! Gu Xingshuang went to find his unreliable roommate, who merely said, "Whatever. It's up to you." "If you don't like him, just break up. It's not like you're actually dating." "Besides, he's rich. If you want, say a few sweet things and he'll even top up your account." Gu Xingshuang beat up his roommate. After struggling with the decision for a while, he ended up playing the role of the big shot's CP after all. The big shot wanted to meet in real life, so Gu Xingshuang could only play dead. When things finally got out of hand, he steeled himself and actually "died." The next day, a strikingly handsome man with an air of menace came looking for him, his eyes red. He cornered Gu Xingshuang and gave him a half-smile. Only his bloodshot eyes and unmistakable exhaustion betrayed him. "I heard you died?" Gu Xingshuang: "…" Using the excuse that his family had cut him off, Ying Yuan forced his way into Gu Xingshuang's tiny rented apartment, determined to take their ridiculous online romance offline. Then one day, Gu Xingshuang accidentally saw Ying Yuan's phone. The supposedly violent father had transferred him a huge sum of money and was cheerfully asking how he was doing. Attached at the end was a sweet vacation photo of the married couple from the supposedly arranged business marriage. Gu Xingshuang: ? Holding the phone, Gu Xingshuang was about to ask what was going on when he stepped outside and heard Ying Yuan talking to his scumbag roommate. Roommate: "Actually, I sent you Gu Xingshuang's address through the game." Ying Yuan replied nonchalantly, "Well, thanks for that." Jealous that Ying Yuan was sending Gu Xingshuang money, the roommate dropped a bombshell. "But did you know that the previous owner of Gu Xingshuang's account, the person you married in the game, was me?" Before Gu Xingshuang could rush out and explain, Ying Yuan let out a scornful laugh, his tone vicious. "Of course I knew." "I also knew you were a man, and that you approached me because you wanted to con me out of money." "Did you never wonder why you never got anything out of me?" Ying Yuan curled his lips, his expression mocking and arrogant. "So, how did it feel to pour tens of thousands into the game just to make yourself worthy of me? Was it fun?" As the roommate looked on in horror, the phone slipped from Gu Xingshuang's hand, and his eyes met Ying Yuan's. Ying Yuan's arrogant expression quickly turned meek. His voice trembled as he tried to sound calm. "Honey... bro, let me explain." Gu Xingshuang: Heh. Younger, scheming, vicious mad dog X older, patient, gentle office worker Theme: No matter what your circumstances, stay true to yourself and keep striving to improve.
