I Married My Tsundere Archrival

[The Insincere Version]

"Even if every woman in the world died, I still wouldn't fall for Ding Baoyi." - Chen Fei

"If I ever fall for Chen Fei, I'm a pig." - Ding Baoyi

[The Fun Version]

Ding Baoyi, a hugely popular actress, and Chen Fei, the entertainment industry's top beauty, starred together in a period drama. After the show became a hit, they quickly rose to the top of the CP rankings.

On-screen, they were sweethearts, and the fans shipped them like crazy.

But those around them knew they'd known each other since childhood. Off-screen, they'd been arguing nonstop since the first day of filming. They were sworn enemies in every sense of the word.

Recently, rumors have been flying around the industry that the two are blurring the line between acting and reality.

Their respective fanbases fought fiercely, sharing behind-the-scenes videos of the pair at odds. The entire online shipping fandom was in an uproar, insisting: [It's all fake. It must be AI.]

Their companies arranged for them to appear together on a hit dating show to promote their pairing.

Haters mocked them:

[Let us watch the most awkward couple in history crash and burn live.]

After the show premiered, the two beauties looked all lovey-dovey in front of the cameras.

Behind the cameras, they bickered like cats and dogs.

In front of the cameras: [Honey, your eye makeup looks so pretty today.]

Behind the cameras: [Like a kiln that's been fired for forty-nine days and charcoal that's been sold for eighty-one.]

Ding Baoyi gritted her teeth: [Chen Fei, I'm going to tear you limb from limb today.]

In front of the cameras, Chen Fei smiled and said fondly: [Good girl, call me Feifei.]

Just as everyone around them assumed they were mortal enemies, the two secretly started dating.

Chen Fei's friend couldn't understand why and asked her.

Leaning against the wall by the floor-to-ceiling window, Chen Fei thought of her and lowered her head with a sudden laugh. She said:

"You don't know. When I see her, I get a little scared, a little flustered, and a little..."

"A little what?"

"A little smitten."

[The Star-Crossed Love Version]

Ding Baoyi never imagined that one day she would fall for Chen Fei.

Nor did she imagine that she would marry Chen Fei.

And she certainly never thought that she and Chen Fei would go from getting married... to getting divorced.
