The Whole Internet Is Shipping Me with My Rival

Qiao Tinghan was a hugely popular star in the entertainment industry and the visual center of the boy band Tornado. After playing the male Nth lead in a big-budget movie, netizens started claiming he had a grudge against Lu Qingzhou, the award-winning actor who played the lead. As a result, their fans became sworn enemies. Whether the two liked each other's posts or appeared at the same commercial event, any tiny connection between them sparked an epic online flame war. Under these circumstances, a budget travel dating show invited both Qiao Tinghan and Lu Qingzhou as romantic contestants. The whole internet worried that the two would come to blows when they met and smash the cameras. Fans on both sides were ready to fight for their idol (or husband).
