The Top-Tier Star Who Became My Boyfriend by Picking Up Trash

Gu Fengting, a top-tier star at the height of his idol career, suddenly abandoned it to throw himself into acting. Unfortunately, only his fans could see any talent in his performances. He was serious about becoming an actor. To shake off the label of King of Bad Movies, he took up a five-star script called I Reached the Pinnacle of Life by Picking Up Trash and spent three months playing a sanitation worker in the backstreets and alleys. After refusing the imperial order from his family to marry another top-tier star, Lin Shengjun had his bank card frozen. His music career hit a wall, and he was so broke he could only rent a place for 300 yuan a month. In the old, single-story house, he lived in the eastern half, while in the western half lived a sanitation worker with a scruffy beard and clothes washed pale from wear. Lin Shengjun: "Hi, I go to university nearby." Gu Fengting: "What a coincidence. I pick up trash nearby." By day, the sanitation worker swept the streets and gathered recyclables. At night, he ate steamed buns with pickles. Watching him grow thinner and thinner, Lin Shengjun couldn't bear it. He began treating him to meals, buying him clothes, and helping him sort recyclables. When the three-month immersion period was over, Gu Fengting decided to come clean to Lin Shengjun about who he was and invite him to take their relationship further. Gu Fengting, fishing for an answer: "What do you think of Gu Fengting?" Lin Shengjun: "A top-tier star." Gu Fengting smiled. "Anything else?" Lin Shengjun clenched his fists until they cracked. "Someone I want to smash over the head and send to you for recycling." Trash Gu Fengting: "...I'm honored." During filming, Gu Fengting kept wearing his sanitation worker's clothes even after wrapping for the day. He even sorted the trash used as props and brought it home. The entire crew: "??" We have to say, that's dedication! Zhou Fengting: "I'm really sorry, it's just... I don't have time to pick up trash during the day, and I can't do my job if I don't bring some home."
