[Free-spirited Actor (Gu Jinghuai) x Reserved CEO (Ying Xuexi), Switch Couple]
Gu Jinghuai is an absolutely perfect top.
He is an award-winning actor, and he has an ordinary boyfriend with whom he has reunited after a breakup. He takes his boyfriend onto a romance reality show. At first, the whole internet hates his boyfriend, but later everyone praises him. The other guests also fall for his boyfriend, openly or secretly.
Though his boyfriend asks to break up because of all sorts of unexpected events, and he agrees in the heat of youth, his boyfriend did nothing wrong. The breakup is all his fault.
He must dote on his bottom like crazy. When jealous, he needs to make a huge spectacle of it. He cannot demand an apology from his bottom, and he has to go through a whole groveling-to-win-his-wife-back arc.
His defining trait: I love my bottom so much.
What else?
Nothing. “I love him so much” is what makes him an absolutely perfect top.
Ying Xuexi is a humble bottom.
Since high school, he has had a crush on a poor classmate. Although his classmate never treated him kindly, he patiently put up with everything, and even after his classmate left without a word, he remained devoted.
When they meet again, he invites the artistically minded top to dinner, and somehow the two of them end up in bed.
Even though the top eats his food, uses his things, and lives in his house, he still has to humbly beg the top for affection, and he has to do all the work himself in bed.
His defining trait: Even though I have money, looks, talent, and a happy family, I am very insecure.
Why am I insecure?
No reason. I am just insecure.
One day, Gu Jinghuai and Ying Xuexi switch bodies.
Ying Xuexi arrives on the eve of Gu Jinghuai filming the first episode of the reality show, while Gu Jinghuai arrives on the eve of Ying Xuexi inviting someone to dinner.
System: Hello, Hosts. Please help each other answer these 20 questions, and you can go home.
System: Now, have your first conversation with each other. You may ask only one question.
Gu Jinghuai thinks it over carefully. “Is your boyfriend at least 180 centimeters tall?”
Ying Xuexi looks grave. “What is the speed of light where you are?”
Both of them: ?

On the reality show, Ying Xuexi hears the judgment “Will you love your bottom? Will you have to grovel to win him back?” for the third time.
Ying Xuexi: You go ahead and keep filming. I’m going home for a bit :)
Gu Jinghuai: Sure, sure, sure! I’ll show you the way. The barbecue place next to my house is amazing!
At a class reunion, Gu Jinghuai gets rejected by a top for the third time, and hears the others say, “He really is not good enough for the top.”
Gu Jinghuai: Tsk. If I knew how to work in an office, I’d go look at the financial statements.
Ying Xuexi: It’s fine. I’ll teach you.
Ying Xuexi & Gu Jinghuai: Huh, spending time alone with this person actually feels pretty nice?

In the System’s eyes, Gu Jinghuai and Ying Xuexi are model employees.
They throw themselves into their assignments, help each other, keep an eye on each other, and never let the other leave first.
They even go the extra mile, doing an additional, kink-themed set of 20 questions on top of the regular 20.
They use the vacation they earn as a reward to get together and discuss their next plan...
Wait a second, why are the two of them kissing?
