After his confession to top-tier star Jiang Lanzhen fails, he immediately runs away and decides never to see Jun Sheng again. He will focus on work, earn lots of money, and reach the peak of life as soon as possible.
Of course, it would be best if he never had to see Jun Sheng again for the rest of his life, so they can avoid the awkwardness of running into each other.
But fate just refuses to grant his wish.
At the awards ceremony, he sits next to Jun Sheng, and the cameras turn to the two of them.
At an industry dinner, he sits next to Jun Sheng, and the conversation turns to the two of them.
He moves into a new home and finds himself living next door to Jun Sheng, so they see each other every time they open their doors.
Even when he is filming, he is shooting next door to Jun Sheng's crew! The director even cheerfully tells them to visit each other's sets!
Oh, he forgot.
The two of them are marketed in the industry as true brothers.
And their CP fans are overflowing.
The masses of CP fans are convinced: "They haven't interacted at all for the past six months, so they must be avoiding suspicion. I have a feeling something big is about to break!"
Jiang Lanzhen's private account: "Impossible. If your ship were real, Jiang Lanzhen would have to hold a concert despite being completely tone-deaf."
Of course, that comment was attacked in a thread that grew to over a hundred replies.
Later, the brand kept insisting that Jiang Lanzhen and Jun Sheng do livestreams together.
Jiang Lanzhen tugged at his hair. "But our story ended in a BE! [Wails] Seeing each other now will only make things even more awkward!"
His manager's eyes welled with tears. "But this image is making us a fortune..."
Jiang Lanzhen said, "No matter how much it makes, we can't take the money. What's more important, your brother's dignity or money?"
His manager said, "But they're offering us three times the usual rate..."
Jiang Lanzhen smiled faintly and readily changed his tune. "Do they want us to market our brotherly bond, or an ambiguous relationship? Either way, I don't mind."
It turns out there's no such thing as the most embarrassing moment, only an even more embarrassing one.
What do you do if you accidentally livestream from the wrong account?
Millions of fans caught his private account and started digging through its history. His most popular post quickly became a trending topic.
It was posted on the day his confession failed, when a drunk Jiang Lanzhen went onto his private account to sob:
"Waaaaah, my confession failed. He doesn't like me. Men are no good (except me)."
"You were all right. He's been stringing me along this whole time, waaaah."
Then Jun Sheng posted:
"There was no failed confession. I've been stringing him along all this time. We're already together."
The blurb was completed on 6.28.
