A shallow pit, don't read, don't read, don't read!
A tsundere, sharp-tongued top-tier star × a scatterbrained, sunny pig farm owner
Jiang Ze × Lu Zhixia
Jiang Ze had never suffered such an injustice in his life. At an event, low blood sugar made him lose control of his expression. A video was taken out of context, and he was dragged onto the trending list and condemned.
#Jiang Ze acts like a diva and disrespects farmers' hard work#
#Jiang Ze discriminates against rural people#
To salvage his reputation, his management company launched an emergency PR campaign and shoved him into an agricultural revitalization variety show, Farm Makeover.
Before he went:
Jiang Ze: It's just eating, drinking, shoveling a little dirt, and chatting over tea with the villagers. I'm great at that!
After he went:
Jiang Ze: Who told me this was a laid-back farming show? Where's the tea? The delicious food? The uncles and aunties chatting away? If none of that is here, at least let me work with crops. What do you mean, a pig farm???
#Top-tier star breaks down while feeding pigs# trended that day.
The comments were full of cheers.
"The pigs are delivering justice on behalf of heaven."
"Well done, piggies! Take down this heartless celebrity!"
The internet expected to watch an icy celebrity's image crumble, but the show took an unexpected turn.
On camera,
Jiang Ze calmly delivered a piglet, his expression blank, as if he had spent ten years gutting fish at a supermarket.
His hands were long and fair, with distinct knuckles, as he mixed pig feed. The big ladle in his hands looked like a paintbrush in the hands of an art student.
Wearing an undershirt and no makeup, he sat unceremoniously at the doorway with a fan in one hand and sunflower seeds in the other, blending in perfectly with the village uncles and aunties.
Fans, antis, and passersby all went wild.
They asked in shock: Who is this guy? Where did the Jiang Ze I know go?
And you're telling me this guy discriminates against rural people and disrespects farmers?
So the focus of this show is a personal makeover, not farming? Ahhh!
Lu Zhixia graduated from a prestigious university but went home to raise pigs, determined to become an internationally renowned king of pig farming.
When they first met,
Jiang Ze looked at Lu Zhixia's rubber boots smeared with pig manure and frowned so hard he could have trapped a mosquito between his brows. "Don't come near me. Stay away."
"If a pig is sick, call a vet. I'm not a doctor!"
The next time he appeared on camera,
Jiang Ze stayed up late making ginger soup and keeping Lu Zhixia company as they watched over a pregnant sow.
"Get some rest. I'll keep watch and wake you when it's time."
He carried a tablet everywhere, learning pig farming from scratch, researching and revising blueprints, all to help Lu Zhixia achieve his dream of becoming the king of pig farming.
"I looked over the expansion plans. The ventilation design here isn't right, so I asked a friend to revise it."
"Jiang Ze, why are you so good to me?" Lu Zhixia asked.
Jiang Ze looked at him with deep affection. He had prepared a moving speech, but before he could say a word, Lu Zhixia narrowed his eyes suspiciously and continued,
"You're not trying to steal my pig-raising secrets, are you?"
"Lu Zhixia, are you out of your mind?" he cursed, but his hands were honest: he took Lu Zhixia's mud-stained jacket to wash it.
Lu Zhixia didn't get it, but the CP fans went crazy first.
[What kind of rural romance is this, where he says one thing but does another? I'm shipping them first!]
[This isn't a farm show or a makeover show. This is a dating show, ahhh!!]
