Ming Jun spent three years in show business flopping so hard he was practically underground, labeled a talentless nobody with nothing going for him but his face.
One day, after he happened to attend his alma mater's anniversary celebration alongside top-tier star He Qiyuan, Ming Jun finally became someone people knew by name.
Ming Jun: Jackpot, found the secret to success!
From then on, Ming Jun spent his days riding He Qiyuan's coattails.
"Yes, Teacher He and I went to high school together. We used to play ball, eat, and go to class together..."
Entertainment reporter: Don't I remember the last script being about two equally matched bosses, both alphas? Weren't you supposed to be sworn enemies?
Ming Jun thought for a moment. "That was way back at the beginning. Later... later we became... ahem."
Not enough excitement in the fanfiction? I'll write it myself.
Can't get a photo of them together? I'm already doing my best to get close, so hurry up and take the picture!
The story isn't dramatic enough? Don't worry, I'll make up some more.
Riding He Qiyuan's fame, Ming Jun turned things around and became an overnight sensation. Even the secret identity he used to write fanfiction became wildly popular.
The CP fans were hooked, treating this author's work as their spiritual sustenance.
At last, one day, Ming Jun was caught at his new company by his supposed sworn enemy, He Qiyuan.
He Qiyuan: "I hear we're in that kind of relationship?"
Ming Jun squeezed his eyes shut. "...Bro, I'm sorry."
The real top-tier star x the nobody riding a top-tier star's coattails
One night, the two of them passionately discussed a fanfiction script in the bedroom.
Ming Jun: "Bro, bro, I really can't take it."
He Qiyuan: "How come you didn't say you couldn't take it when you were writing it?"
Ming Jun: "..."
I didn't know you'd fucking read it when I wrote it!
