How Fun It Is to Ship This Fake-Married Rich Couple

Shi Xi awakens to the truth and discovers she's the foil female character in an entertainment-industry novel.

She and her wealthy husband were forced into an arranged marriage. He's aloof and traditional, and before the wedding he made a bold declaration in their prenuptial agreement: They could get married, but they would never share a bed.

But because she's jealous of the heroine, she insists on dragging her husband onto a show to flaunt their loving marriage.

Their fake affection keeps getting exposed, turning them into a foil for the male and female leads. When the show ends, Shi Xi gets divorced and lives a miserable life.

Shi Xi: ?

Whatever. I'll just give up trying.

On the first day of the show, Shi Xi bluntly tells the livestream audience: We were forced into an arranged marriage. We have no feelings for each other.

The viewers, ready to accuse them of putting on an act: ...

You just exposed yourselves. How are we supposed to hate on you now?

On the show, the other couples help each other and work hard to complete their tasks.

Viewers: So sweet!

Shi Xi lazes around and takes a nap.

Viewers: You lazy bum!

The next second, her wealthy husband comes over and asks Shi Xi to help with a task: One word of encouragement earns you one handbag.

The viewers look at a row of the latest luxury handbags: Seriously... I want one.

The original heroine looks at the canvas tote beside her, which she's using to cultivate her image: I'm throwing this thing!

The heroine burns her hand cooking for the hero. He kisses her, hugs her, and scoops her up, then helps with the cooking.

Viewers: A love story made in heaven!

Shi Xi gets hungry and glances at her wealthy husband beside her.

Viewers: What are you looking at? Don't you have hands?

Her wealthy husband, expressionless: I can't cook.

Then he orders takeout from a five-star chef.

Viewers: Seriously... now I'm hungry.

The original heroine looks at the inedible mess her own husband made: My fists are clenched!

The heroine and hero have a disagreement, and she secretly sheds tears, looking utterly wronged.

Viewers: My heart aches for her.

Shi Xi and her husband argue, and she goes straight for him, only for her wealthy husband to pin her against the wall.

Viewers: Fight! Fight!

Unable to break free, she kisses him on the lips on impulse. The man, usually so aloof and dignified, instantly turns red from his ears to his cheeks.

Viewers: A pure-hearted domineering CEO, seriously... so hot! Why don't you two take that fight to the bedroom?

Before the reality show, viewers: Shi Xi and her husband look like a fake couple. Just waiting for them to fall apart.

After the reality show, viewers: This fake wealthy couple is so fun to ship! You two are true love, and we won't hear otherwise!

Shi Xi: “...”

Are viewers these days all this rebellious?
