This is a song dedicated to the two of them, and it is also what they are known by. It captures their arduous journey and growth throughout their lives. They sing it, and it is about them.
The story is set at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, when the Honor of Kings professional league was affected and the season's start was delayed.
"How many sixteen-year stretches can a life hold, Lu Ling? There won't be another sixteen years."
Teammate: "Sorry, is it against the rules for teammates to date?!"
"Hey, why do you want to play professionally?"
"Because I like winning."
At first, the fans of both sides got along like one big happy family.
"Wow, these two are so sweet together!"
"As expected, good-looking people always end up together!"
Later, when Su Yichen's hand injury caused an online uproar, gossip spread through every street and alley.
Su Yichen's fans began posting clarification videos online and sharing them everywhere, while Lu Ling's fans did nothing and said they'd take things as they came.
Lu Ling's fans had always been like that. If it wasn't their business, they wouldn't meddle. They'd just "take things as they come" and let people do whatever they wanted.
Su Yichen's fans couldn't stand it.
"What the hell? Didn't we agree both fan groups were one big family? Yichen's in such a mess, and all we ask is for you to share a clarification video. Is that really so hard?!"
The Lu fans replied: "Sorry, but you know these things just get more confused the more they're spread around, right?"
"Exactly! What if the rumors get worse and ruin your idol's reputation? Then you'll blame us!"
"Don't you know about the 115 incident back then? Trying to help only made things worse. Sometimes it backfires."
The 115 incident refers to the Yixin incident in 2020.
The Su fans:
"What the hell does Su Yichen have to do with cyberbullying? Why are you bringing up the 115 incident?!"
"Exactly! We thought you'd help clear things up for the sake of our friendship, but we never imagined you'd be so cold and heartless! After all the times we've loyally helped you!"
"Your consciences have all been eaten by dogs!"
The Lu fans:
"Say whatever you want. We won't do anything, just to keep things from getting out of hand!"
The Su fans: "Of course you don't care. It's not Lu Ling who's in trouble. If something happened to Lu Ling, wouldn't you also go around refuting rumors and clarifying things?"
The Lu fans: "Oh, even if Lu Ling got into trouble, he'd handle it himself. Unlike certain people, who go around begging others for help like beggars, relying on everyone else."
The Su fans: "I don't think Lu Ling is all that great either! He's always hanging around Yichen to ride his coattails, isn't he?!"
The Lu fans: "Ha. Lu Ling needs your help to be popular? If your Su Yichen hadn't been acting like a lovesick puppy, we wouldn't even have bothered with you!"
After that, the two fan groups fell out for good and swore they would never make peace!
Passersby:
"Huh? The Lu fans' support color is white? Look how much that all-white outfit resembles Chen's all-black one."
"Red and blue have always made a couple, and black and white are born spouses. Su Yichen and Lu Ling must be a couple!"
Fans on both sides: "Get lost! Who the hell is a couple with him? And you say we're a pair?!"
Just as the two fan groups were at each other's throats, fighting and wishing they could bite one another to death, news broke online that Su Yichen and Lu Ling had officially announced their relationship.
"..."
Heavens! What a cruel twist of fate!
The world may be vast, but fans matter most;
The world may be full of sorrow, but fans suffer most!
Have you ever thought about how we fans feel!!!
Do you know why more and more girls are single these days? Because the good-looking ones are all pairing up with each other!!!
Jungle King x Mid Lane King, sweet trope! (The Jungle King and the Mid Lane King are the gentlest pairing in the world.)
Su Yichen x Lu Ling
Stars shine above at dawn and dusk, their sparks blazing across the skies. Chen means stars and starlight; Lingkong means the sky. Together, they mean the starry sky.
What does that mean? A match made in heaven?
