Xie Yanhe x Yu Sui

-

Someone asked on Zhihu: What's the most unforgettable CP you've ever shipped?

Someone answered: Obviously, the ones with a tragic ending are the hardest to forget.

Then someone asked: What kind of tragic ending is the hardest to forget?

Someone else replied: They loved each other passionately, wanting the whole world to know. In the end, they became strangers, but somewhere no one could see, they still loved each other.

The most upvoted answer was: A Bountiful Harvest of Time.

When Yu Sui and Xie Yanhe divorced, it was a huge, bitter public spectacle.

Neither team's PR staff could even manage to keep up the most perfunctory politeness.

Afterward, Yu Sui went abroad to continue her studies and didn't return for years.

Xie Yanhe, meanwhile, continued to rise and fall in show business, winning one award after another and creating legend after legend.

Just as Xie Yanhe won Best Actor once again, someone seeking drama put an ill-timed trending topic in front of him.

That was the first time Xie Yanhe lost his composure in public.

Only then did many people understand: all these years, he hadn't shipped himself with anyone or gotten close to actresses because he was waiting for the person who had left for a distant land to come back.

Before returning home, Yu Sui never imagined she and Xie Yanhe would have any reason to cross paths.

Aside from keeping in touch with their elders, she thought she could avoid everything else.

Xie Yanhe's parents had always treated her well, so on her first day back, she went to visit them.

Who could have known that the man who was supposed to be in Shanghai for an awards ceremony would be sitting on the sofa, impeccably dressed in a suit?

When he saw her return, he even came over to take the things from her hands and spoke to her as if nothing had changed: "It's cold. Why come over at a time like this?"

Just like before their divorce, when he took the coat she handed him and said, "It's cold. Why are you coming back now?"

In the past, she would have leaped into Xie Yanhe's arms and hugged him.

But now, she could only step away and smile politely. "I came to see Uncle and Auntie."

She thought this meeting was just a coincidence.

But then someone used their actions to show her how naive she was.

Eventually, even other celebrities' fans knew just how shameless this lonely, love-struck man, who'd spent years alone, was in his pursuit of his ex-wife.

[A variety show wants Xie Yanhe, but they're afraid he'll say no? No problem. Invite Yu Sui first. Xie Yanhe will come running to your show for free.]

[There's a romance novel with a male lead who's perfect for Xie Yanhe, but he never takes roles like that! No problem. Invite Yu Sui first. If she agrees to act in it, Xie Yanhe will come running over all by himself.]

Xie Yanhe's fans: This is freaking ridiculous.

Yu Sui's fans: Stay away from our girl. Get lost!

Once-humble CP fans: Sob, it's happening again!

Theme: Say it again.
