After Our Fake Couple Unbound, We Got Trapped in a Loop

Three years ago, Li Zhizheng and Lin Shu were newcomers to the entertainment industry. They starred together in a dual-male-lead TV drama, playing a male couple caught in a tortured love affair full of hatred, passion, and tangled feelings. They took the acting seriously and worked hard to promote the show. Thanks to their excellent acting and good looks, they shot to fame together.

Perhaps their professional skills were so strong that audiences became too invested in their roles and thought the two were really dating. In truth, they'd been at odds ever since they met. Their pairing was fake, and all those sweet memories were just for promotion.

So as soon as the show finished airing, the two quickly ended their partnership and went their separate ways. They never appeared together again, leaving countless fans of their pairing heartbroken.

Perhaps those fans believed so deeply that the two had loved each other that they ended up transmigrating into a fanfic about them.

They discovered that they had to follow the fanfic's plot and clear up every misunderstanding and resolve every conflict between them, starting from their first meeting. If even one conflict in the plot remained unresolved, they would get stuck in that scene and repeat it endlessly.

To escape the terrifying loop, Lin Shu and Li Zhizheng had no choice but to grit their teeth and retrace the past three years with the person they hated most.

At first, they only needed to resolve misunderstandings and conflicts to break the loop. But the plot's demands grew increasingly outrageous. They had to make physical contact: hold hands, hug, kiss, and more, one step at a time.

They were almost done with the plot and about to return to normal life. Lin Shu endured one intimate encounter after another with Li Zhizheng. But when Li Zhizheng pinned him to the sofa and kissed him until he was breathless, and things seemed about to go further, Lin Shu finally realized something was off. He shoved Li Zhizheng away and asked, confused and flustered, "Isn't this a chaste fanfic? Do we really have to go this far?"

Li Zhizheng replied without changing expression, "You want to end the loop as soon as possible too, don't you?"

After retracing three years of events, they finally returned to the real world. But all those intimate moments in the loops had helped them both understand their own feelings.

When Lin Shu and Li Zhizheng appeared in public together again, they were shopping at a supermarket. Dressed in simple casual clothes, they naturally picked out ingredients for dinner, exchanging sweet glances now and then.

Their fans spread the news everywhere: What is this, today of all days? Our dead pairing is promoting itself again!

But Lin Shu and Li Zhizheng clasped their hands firmly, fingers intertwined, and announced to the world: This time it's not for promotion. The couple you've been shipping is really together.

A handsome bottom, warm on the outside and cold within, starved for love x a top who's cold on the outside, warm within, and extremely possessive

A lighthearted, sweet romance with a time loop and mutual pining. Their feelings for each other are incredibly strong.
