Chi Xu became famous at a young age, but his aloof nature kept him out of scandal for ten years in the industry. The media called him the number one star for icy chemistry.
At the year-end awards photo, the newly crowned Best Actress lost her footing and fell right into Chi Xu's arms.
That low-resolution photo went viral in an instant, thanks to their subtle chemistry.
After their pairing blew up, the two went to great lengths to avoid each other, until they appeared on the same variety show.
On the second day of the marriage variety show, they exchanged not a single word.
The director's team, on the verge of a mental breakdown: Please, just say something to each other.
But then the director's team had Jiang Yu drive.
The aloof top-tier star took the passenger seat and smiled at her of his own accord: Take it slow.
Everyone screamed: A forced pairing tastes so good!
Later, the director's team staged a surprise livestream, and the couple's marriage certificate was revealed on the show.
Everyone: Oh wow, you two are actually married for real??

The first time Jiang Yu spoke to Chi Xu was when she was eighteen.
With a voice hoarse from screaming at a concert, she called her best friend: "If you keep spreading rumors about Chi Xu, he'll have to spend ages comforting me on the phone again."
The young idol showed up at her house, his expression cool and detached as he raised an eyebrow at her. "How do you want me to comfort you?"
The boy, once as bad-tempered as a puppy, had become a superstar adored by everyone.
Her heart nearly stopped.
From being unknown to standing together at the summit, Jiang Yu always thought she'd kept her secret well hidden.
Her crush spanned her youth and a sea of blue light sticks, becoming an open "secret" when she was twenty-six.
