Smash hit Word of Honor catapulted Zhang Zhehan and Gong Jun to the top of the idol charts. But this well-deserved success is a double-edged sword.
How will they juggle the demands of their newfound fame, balance the relationship with one another a...
Zhang Zhehan cringed for a moment. He hadn't thought it through. What should he say now? Xiaoyu was frantically pointing at his watch and signalling him to cut the call.
Taking the cue, Zhang Zhehan replied," I'm sorry for calling so early. I forgot about the time. I will call again later."
"It's fine, Zhang laoshi. I am doing hair and makeup now anyway. I've been awake since 6 so it is not early for me. Plus I will not able to talk later because I will be filming. So please say now what you want to say."
Zhang Zhehan was surprised to hear this. He hadn't been keeping tabs on Xu Feng for the longest time so he didn't know what he was up to. "Oh, are you in Hengdian too?"
"No, Xiangshan."

That wasn't too far away from Hengdian; just a few hours drive. Zhang Zhehan thought of how he should phrase his next words.
"Ahhh, I don't know how to say this, but that CP thing between Gong Jun and me is now off."
There was silence on the line as Xu Feng considered those words. He frowned in apparent confusion. Why was pretty face Zhang cancelling their CP suddenly when it had been going pretty well for them? They even issued legal letters recently as a show of unity.
This didn't seem like pretty face Zhang's style. No, he was the competitive, aggressive type who wouldn't back down from a challenge. Even though Xu Feng hated his guts, he had to admit that he respected them.
"Hang on, let me go to somewhere private." He waved away the approaching stylist, and walked out to the corridor of the dressing room, away from the cacophony of hairdryers and background music.
"Zhang laoshi, this isn't your style. Although I find you irritating, I do respect you as a rival. Are saying that you are giving up on Junjun?"
Zhang Zhehan frowned as well. Although he too found Xu Feng extremely annoying, he also respected his deep feeling and sacrifice for Gong Jun. All of a sudden, he felt like a jerk for coming in between them. Xiaoyu was right; he created this mess. He was surprised that Xu Feng guessed that something was up.
"Zhang laoshi, is this something to do with your hospitalisation a while back? I hope you are feeling better now." Xu Feng offered an olive branch.
"Yes and no, it is a long story." Zhang Zhehan sighed. "To spare you the details, I met someone in the meantime, and he doesn't like the idea of Bao and I being a CP couple. Basically, he isn't as magnanimous as you, even though we are from the same industry."
"Oh."
Oh? That was it? Xu Feng was not going to gloat or make sarcastic remarks? Zhang Zhehan was surprised.
"Ahh well, that...." Xu Feng began hesitatingly. "Sometimes love finds us in unexpected ways. I won't deny that I am happy with these news in more ways than one."
