Original title: A Heart of Fire
There's an unwritten ironclad rule in show business: when a diva meets a king, they never argue. They usually just get physical.
That's exactly what happens with Peng Ruan and Chen Xinglan.
Chen Xinglan is a top male model for the six major blue-blood luxury brands. He has a mesmerizing charm and all the confidence of a king.
During a solo interview for a travel variety show, the host asked with a smile, "Netizens say your face is Nuwa's graduation project. What kind of girl does Xinglan like?"
Chen Xinglan raised an eyebrow, rubbing his pinky ring as he drawled, "As long as she isn't high-maintenance."
The host gave an awkward laugh. The remark was so pointed, he might as well have written her name on his forehead.
The day after the interview aired, eagle-eyed netizens noticed that Peng Ruan had changed her Weibo bio to: "Kings, no way."
The tension between them lasted until the variety show aired, when a photo exploded across the tranquil lake of the internet:
Chen Xinglan had Peng Ruan's wrists pinned together, and her lips were sealed too.
Then another Weibo post shot back to the top of the trending list:
Chen Xinglan V: We never argue. We usually just get physical.
The picture showed them holding hands.
Fans wept rivers, while netizens joked in the top comment: "We never argue. We usually just get physical. Life is full of drama, and they went straight for the kiss."
Also known as: "Who Said They Didn't Like High-Maintenance Girls?" "Kings, No Way Was All a Lie" "Just a Few Little Games Between Lovebirds" "The Only Ones Suffering Are Us Singles"
