My Boss Told Me to Wake Up and Make It Look Like We're Flirting

A free short story. To be clear: There are no real-life models. By opening this story, you agree that all RPS here is fake. The author knows nothing about the Chinese entertainment industry, so don't judge me. This is a very abstract story.

Synopsis:

I'm a nobody. If you scroll down my Weibo live feed, you'll find posts from a month ago in no time.

One day, I suddenly went viral. It turned out that a low-budget production I'd finished three years ago had come out. I was the male lead, he was the second male lead, and people were shipping us.

I stared at the live feed on Weibo and fell into thought: Do they really think the second male lead and I are a couple?

In reality, we hadn't been in touch since filming wrapped. After he rose to fame as the second male lead in historical romance dramas, he even deleted me from WeChat.

He recently added me back because his boss told him to sell our pairing. He wanted to suck up to the male lead in a xianxia historical romance drama...

A funny, snarky story. Don't judge the author.
