New Book Coming Soon~
Cong Tang only learned after his death that he was actually living inside a book.
He and his ex-husband, Gu Weiming, were obstacles on the protagonists' path to love, as well as their contrast pair.
After Cong Tang died, public opinion swept Gu Weiming into a storm of controversy. He was accused of a chaotic private life that drove his partner to depression and death. The mounting infamy ruined his promising career.
Looking at the divorce papers in his left hand and the freshly issued terminal illness diagnosis in his right, Cong Tang sighed. His own ending was still unavoidable, but at least he couldn't let his poor ex-husband suffer the same fate again.
Then he'd start by clarifying that his marriage to Gu Weiming had been a sham.

Ever since announcing his marriage, Best Actor Gu Weiming had never mentioned his other half. At first, fans checked in on the fan forum, hoping their idol would get divorced and escape his misery. Eventually, they couldn't even be bothered to check in anymore. Everyone assumed Gu Weiming had long since fallen out of love with his partner, and was just waiting to get divorced.
Then came the announcement of the divorce reality show "Sometimes We Part", finally confirming that Best Actor Gu was breaking free from his marital prison.
But before his solo fans could start celebrating, someone photographed Gu Weiming outside the civil affairs bureau, eyes red as he clutched his ex-husband's sleeve and refused to let go.
Fans: ??? Bro, get a grip!
Everyone wanted to see just how unbearable that obscure little celebrity who dumped Best Actor Gu could be.
After filming began: “Damn Gu Weiming, you hid such a gorgeous wife from us? Were you keeping him all to yourself?!”
“I’m going right over there and saying, ‘Hey! Wifey!’”
“Ex-hubby, let go of my wife, got it?”
“How did they film this shot?! His hands are longer than my ex-boyfriend's life, sob. A perfect 360-degree view. Gu Weiming really is something.”
After trying everything he could, Cong Tang earned the title of “The Most Adorable Wife in Chinese Entertainment.”
“Fated to Be Together” was voted by netizens as “the couple everyone most wants to see reunite.”
Cong Tang: This isn't how I thought things would go...

After the show ended, Cong Tang cut off all contact with the outside world and hurried away to another country.
A few days later, a post titled “A Terminally Ill Patient's Experience Applying for Euthanasia” was reposted to Weibo.
The applicant's signature, restored by a tech expert, was unmistakably Cong Tang's signature in both Chinese and English.
The fans of “Fated to Be Together,” who were still hoping for a reunion: ???!!!
Bro, hurry up, or your wife will really be gone!!
* The recipient's diagnosis is a mistake, not a real terminal illness. There will be a pregnancy later on.
* The couple is Cong Tang and Gu Weiming. It's strictly a one-on-one romance, with no wavering: a taciturn, tongue-tied top who adores his wife X a pessimistic, emo, checked-out bottom.
* The top will eventually learn to speak up.
