After an accident, Jiang Zhinian was forced to sleep with a man.

He muttered, "We're both adults," a few times and tried to run, but the other man, whose face belonged to a top-tier star, grabbed him and said, "Marry me. I'll take responsibility."

Jiang Zhinian let out a piercing scream inside.

Oh no, oh no! Would sleeping with my idol get me kicked out of the fandom?

*

Jiang Zhinian always thought the man's words that night were a joke.

Until he faced the prospect of a business marriage with a stranger. In a fit of impulsiveness, he went to Song Jinhe.

Jiang Zhinian: Do you still mean what you said before?

Song Jinhe: It still stands, for as long as you want.

On the eve of their wedding, Jiang Zhinian locked away his beloved camera and all his old photos, determined to make sure Song Jinhe never found out that he was his biggest fan.

*

After signing the papers and getting married, they treated each other with polite respect in public. In private, Jiang Zhinian was cold toward him, at least one-sidedly.

After finally making it through their honeymoon, Jiang Zhinian couldn't resist taking out his camera again when he saw that handsome face.

Fans discovered that the fanboy who had vanished without a trace had started posting handsome photos of their idol again.

Drinking water, wiping sweat, laughing... Every photo had fans squealing over how handsome he looked.

The fans: That fanboy is absolutely, truly in love with our idol!

Song Jinhe had naturally noticed the figure, bundled up from head to toe on set. The more he saw him, the more familiar those eyes seemed, like his well-behaved husband waiting for him to come home.

*

One time, while watching TV, Song Jinhe casually asked, "Niannian, are you a fan of anyone?"

Jiang Zhinian denied it outright. "I'm not into celebrities."

But before long, a rumor spread that Song Jinhe's spouse was keeping a young star.

Jiang Zhinian's three-part denial: That's not me. I didn't do it. Stop making things up.

The fans couldn't stand the thought of their idol being wronged and were determined to dig up the culprit.

But they never found a third party. Instead, they found Jiang Zhinian's Weibo account.

Seeing the Level 12 verification badge in Song Jinhe's fan community on his profile, the fans were stunned.

The fanboy was actually their idol's real boyfriend?!

*

Song Jinhe took it remarkably well.

He curled his lips as he scrolled through all the wildly suggestive posts on someone's Weibo, then glanced at Jiang Zhinian, who looked obedient but was panicking inside.

"If you want me to fuck you, just tell me to my face next time. Don't post it for everyone to see."

Upcoming story:

After graduating from the aviation academy, Shen Shixu was recommended to Nanshen Airlines through connections. He rose from observer to captain in record time, becoming Nanshen's youngest captain.

The captain assigned to train him had to retire early for surgery, so the responsibility of training a newcomer fell to him.

His trainee was Qin Bianyue, who was nothing but trouble.

On his very first day, Qin got on his nerves, dancing all over his pet peeves: showing up late, eating breakfast during a crew meeting, and talking back three times for every one thing Shen said.

Without holding back, Shen Shixu complained in front of the whole crew, "The co-pilot's going to get polished with oil in a minute."

Qin Bianyue held up his greasy hand and grumbled to himself: What's with the act?

-

During their time working together, whenever they showed up at the same time, they were bound to bicker.

The airline staff assumed they couldn't stand each other.

Until one time, when they were assigned to separate flights, Qin Bianyue began openly flirting on the public channel connecting the control tower and all the planes, as if no one else existed.

Shen Shixu: I'm calling the police!

Qin Bianyue misheard: What? Hold me tight?

-

"You're my turbine, the one who makes me feel safe."

"Captain Qin, I'm declaring my love for you at thirty thousand feet."

-------------Story Break----------------

After earning his PhD, Zhou Weibai stayed at his university as a graduate advisor.

His teaching assistant left to take parental leave, leaving the position open.

A friendly colleague enthusiastically recommended Fang Xingzhi, a graduate student from a nearby university.

Apparently, he was a campus heartthrob, too.

Zhou Weibai didn't care about any of that. Every day, he worked away on his laptop, either writing a paper or getting one published in an SCI journal.

How to get along with the new teaching assistant was outside his area of concern.

But as they worked together, Zhou Weibai realized that the new assistant seemed promising. With the right training, he might even take over Zhou's position.

He assigned him to help supervise first-year graduate students and took him to the lab to explore new research directions.

As time passed, Zhou Weibai gradually became aware of the changing atmosphere between them. He tried to distance himself, but Fang stopped him in his office under the pretext of discussing research.

On the eve of publishing an SCI paper with Fang Xingzhi as first author, the man showed up at Zhou's dorm with another paper and blocked the door.

Fang Xingzhi looked at him with an amused expression. "Professor Zhou, care to take a look?"

Paper title: "A Study of the Human Body's Ultimate Flexibility Under the Influence of Hormones"

Zhou Weibai snapped it shut. His face flushed for a moment.

Fang Xingzhi chuckled. "Professor Zhou, without any data to refer to, the only way to reach an accurate conclusion is through firsthand experimentation."
