● A sharp-tongued, contrary, tsundere actress X a top-tier star with a gap-moe side, a total B-king

·

Nan Wang got torn apart online after taking a role in an utterly disastrous, god-awful drama. Her agency seized on the buzz and threw resources at her, arranging magazine shoots and interviews.

In the end, she even managed to ride the coattails of Jiang Jing'an, a hugely popular actor who had been on top of the industry for years.

The moment their historical romance drama, The Crescent Moon, was announced, it caused an uproar online.

[Broadcast regulators, open your eyes! Please, please don't approve this!]

[Jiang Jing'an has it rough. First he had to prop up a newcomer, and now he's propping up the entertainment industry's princess...]

[The Chinese entertainment industry is doomed.]

[Pretty-face resource hog, get out of showbiz!]

A year later, the drama aired.

Within ten minutes of its release, its ratings broke the record for the past decade.

Huh? Didn't everyone agree not to watch it?

Only three episodes had aired, but the drama's fans and the CP shippers had already passed 800,000. They began setting up fan forums to ship the couple, and the excitement was unprecedented.

[The sweeter the fans ship them, the more the stars themselves have to avoid looking close.]

Just as Nan Wang turned down DS Magazine's offer for a third couples' cover shoot, Jiang Jing'an sent her two messages.

Jiang Jing'an: Did you see? The internet is shipping us.

Nan Wang: I saw. Our village finally got internet.

Jiang Jing'an: So, how about we fall in love for real after acting together?

Nan Wang: Huh?

After Nan Wang became famous thanks to a dating rumor, her unscrupulous boss exploited the beautiful, talentless actress and accepted an offer for her to appear on a laid-back travel variety show without asking her.

What she never expected was that Jiang Jing'an would be there too.

On the day of filming, the crew launched an early surprise visit to the guests' homes, hoping to show fans the most genuine side of each celebrity.

By the time the crew arrived at Nan Wang's place, she was already dressed and ready. The cameras caught her genuinely surprised expression as she opened the door. There was no faking it.

Midway through filming, the cameraman's arm got tired. He accidentally knocked over a little box beside Nan Wang's bookshelf.

Clatter, clatter--

The box was packed full of collectible photo cards, and they spilled out all at once. A few were rare cards from Jiang Jing'an's early career, the kind that money couldn't buy on the open market.

When the variety show aired, the production team left those few shots in, showing them exactly as they happened.

That day, Jiang Jing'an and Nan Wang's solo fans fell silent.

The CP shippers welcomed spring...

[Reading Guide]

1. The characters aren't based on real people. Don't read them as such.

2. A fluffy, brainless romance. Don't overthink it.
