Fans dug up a photo of a top-tier star idol that seemed to show him wearing a matching couple's ring. A leading game streamer admitted that he was currently in a passionate relationship. The two seemed to frequent the same places and meet in private.
Fans on both sides: No way. Don't drag us into this.
You're from different circles. Stop spreading rumors!
Shen Luoying said nothing. He tore off a small piece of bread and fed it to Tang Yunxi. "Is it good?"
Tang Yunxi hugged him affectionately from behind, resting his head on Shen Luoying's shoulder and rubbing his cheek against his neck. His voice was gentle. "Mm."
In a nutshell: If I'd known my idol liked me too and was willing to spend money on me, why did I go through all that trouble to stan him?

Long version:
Leading game streamer Shen Luoying has been a fan of popular boy band member Tang Yunxi for years, secretly buying merch and going to concerts without telling his viewers.
After attending Tang Yunxi's birthday party, he unexpectedly meets a stylish young man whose face is well covered, going by the name "Quan." He thinks it'll be a brief encounter, but the young man invites him to meet up several times afterward. Gradually, the two become online friends who can talk about anything.
The company forces Shen Luoying to attend a gathering. He arrives reluctantly and sits in a corner, only for the boss to seat him beside the guest of honor. Just as he's wondering why, the evening's most important guest walks into the room. It's Tang Yunxi!
Tang Yunxi goes straight to the seat of honor beside Shen Luoying, who barely dares to breathe. They're no more than an arm's length apart! After dinner, everyone moves on to the next round, where they ask Tang Yunxi for his WeChat. He gives it to everyone except Shen Luoying.
Shen Luoying: A little sad. My idol, whom I've been a fan of for years, treats me differently.
The gathering ends in a blur, and it's already past midnight. Tang Yunxi walks Shen Luoying back to his hotel. At the entrance, he asks, "How's the plushie charm?"
Shen Luoying is confused. He bought it with Quan, so how does Tang Yunxi know about it?
Tang Yunxi chuckles. "I didn't give you my WeChat just now because I figured you already had my private account. There was no need to give you the useless one I use for business."
Shen Luoying: WeChat? I don't have it... Wait, what?!
Shen Luoying has never understood why Tang Yunxi went out of his way to get close to him.
Until one day, he discovers Tang Yunxi's secret.
Shen Luoying: So the big spender at the top of my livestream's leaderboard was you? Then... that night you saw me at the convenience store...
Tang Yunxi rests his chin on his hand and gazes at Shen Luoying. He's finally been found out. His eyes are full of amusement as he nods. "I knew it was you from the very first moment."
All those years, Shen Luoying secretly stanned him, while someone else quietly wore a secret identity to become the top donor on his stream.
Zheng Yuanyuan: Xiaoying, the ancients weren't wrong! Apparently, you really can meet anyone you want in the world through just six people. Could you ask your Yunxi to pass a message to our Muying? Tell him to eat well and sleep well. We'll always be with him.
Shen Luoying glances at Tang Yunxi, sitting close beside him, and replies: He says he doesn't want to say something like that himself. Come to the next concert, and he'll take you backstage to meet him.
Zheng Yuanyuan:!! My greatest connection! Xiaoying!!
