I Started Online Dating My Archenemy

There are two top-tier stars in the entertainment industry.

One is Rong Lin, aloof and self-restrained, calm and composed.

The other is Sheng Lie, who sees Rong Lin as his sworn rival: flamboyant and carefree.

Ever since they were kids, Sheng Lie has always been one step behind Rong Lin in everything. Whether at school or in their careers, Rong Lin was always the child other parents wished they had, much to Sheng Lie's frustration.

What drove him even crazier was that, because of his sexuality, even secretly dating someone online ended with his sworn rival Rong Lin pinning him to the bed!

Tsk! What rotten luck!

One day, Rong Lin unexpectedly posted a heart on Weibo with the caption: "I'm happy. I got the girl."

When Sheng Lie saw the post, he scoffed. "A dead tree's blossomed? Did he take the wrong meds? Or did someone hack his account?"

That night, his parents dragged him home and gave him an earful. "Look at what a loser you are. Rong Lin already has a wife. What about you? Where's your wife? Say something!"

Sheng Lie's inner monologue: I don't have a wife, but I do have a husband. Can I say that?

After a thorough scolding, Sheng Lie returned to his apartment and sent a sulky message: "Hubby, I'm so mad~"

His doting husband replied gently: "What's wrong, baby? Did that bastard bully you again?"

Using a cute cartoon-girl profile picture, Sheng Lie typed: "Mm-hmm, I'm upset. Give me a kiss~"

The other person indulged him: "Sure, kiss, kiss, kiss."

Blushing with excitement, Sheng Lie hugged his phone and rolled around on the bed. "Not enough, not enough~"

Sheng Lie was completely lost in these tender, lovey-dovey days of playing the doting couple, until the other person suggested meeting in person. Sheng Lie was thunderstruck.

He'd only gotten into this on a whim and hadn't thought about the future at all. That's why he'd pretended to be a woman while dating online, with the whole thing being purely platonic. Meet in person? What kind of joke was that?

Sheng Lie immediately came to his senses. Sure, he was pretty tempted by the other person's body, but if his cheap husband found out he was a man, he'd probably punch Sheng Lie's head clean off, right?

So Sheng Lie promptly broke up with him and blocked him, all in one go.

Later, the two were invited to take part in a slow-paced variety show. Sheng Lie thought his secret identity had been exposed by accident, when in fact everyone had already dug up every last detail. Rong Lin held him close and kissed him again and again in every way imaginable.

Sheng Lie's tongue was so sore and numb that when he finally got a moment to catch his breath, Rong Lin asked with their lips still touching, "Baby, is this enough this time?"

Sheng Lie: "..." Oh my god! I'm getting goosebumps all over!

He suddenly wanted to strangle the disheveled bastard in front of him!

As his cheap husband and sworn rival, who was a whole head taller than him, looked ready to keep going, Sheng Lie covered his mouth and gave an awkward smile. "Um, let's talk this out. No need to get handsy. Actually, I have a little sister..."

Before Sheng Lie could put his pile of made-up excuses to use, his hands were tied with a necktie.
