In her first month as a newcomer to the acting world, Yan Man made a huge name for herself, all because she was pursuing the hugely popular top-tier star Ye Lin. But every fan knew that Ye Lin was impossibly handsome, aloof and proud, an untouchable god with no earthly desires who had never been involved in a single rumor over the years. So when their names were first paired together, fans erupted. Anti-CP fans: “Get lost! Even dogs wouldn't ship them!” On the day filming wrapped, Yan Man decided to give up pursuing him and cut ties. She spent the night learning video editing, then made an earth-shattering breakup video to announce that the two of them were completely over. Nobody expected the video to go viral. On the first day, someone dug up the fact that Ye Lin's heart rate hit 135 when Yan Man took off her coat because she was hot. On the second day, someone noticed that in a scene where the female lead was supposed to kiss the male lead by force and he was supposed to dodge, Ye Lin actually kissed her back in the behind-the-scenes footage... On the third day, the fourth day... The first week after Yan Man's “first love” ended, the Yan-Ye ship became hugely popular. CP fans: “How could you not ship them? I'm shipping them so hard!” The video eventually faded from the spotlight, but the couple's popularity only grew. Countless photos emerged, giving fans an endless supply of “bonus content.” The media suspected Yan Man had planned it all. She responded by keeping her distance with three denials: “I don't know. I'm not sure. I don't know him.” That night, Ye Lin responded on Weibo: “Stop guessing. I posted it. Is the candy sweet?” Top comment: “Does he even have to make his clarification perfectly parallel to his wife's? Nothing beats the real couple feeding us sugar!” Later, Yan Man rose to fame through her own talent and became a top actress. Everyone discovered that Ye Lin, who refused to fly, had taken a flight of nearly ten hours from China to Sydney just to catch Yan Man dancing with an old male classmate and shove her into a car. It was two hours before Yan Man was let out of the car. Her eyes were red at the corners, and she was wearing a scarf in the middle of summer. She angrily kicked the car door shut, but the man leaned out of the window with a smile and rubbed her flushed earlobe. #WeBecameHugeAfterTheBreakup# #SaysHeDoesntLikeHerButHisBodyTellsTheTruth# #WhoAmIShippingToDeath?IMeanImShippingMyselfToDeath# A talkative beauty x a cold, seductive man You are the light that pulled me out of a chaotic world and back into a thriving human one.
