I Ship My Rival x Me

CHAPTER 5

༻❁༺

Premise: A not-so-famous film star who sucks at acting is caught red-handed by his adversary watching a fan-made BL video about them.

Question: Is there anything more awkward than that?

Answer: He then has to finish acting a scene under his adversary's serious, piercing, and benevolent gaze, who is eyeing his every move like an old and experienced artist.

༻❁༺

I was on the verge of forgetting how the word 'awkward' was actually written. My entire back went limp as I cast a mournful gaze at the male lead in a daze, forcing myself to act out the sentiments which should belong to a female lead.

After the male lead was done, he didn't even dare to look at me. He would run away the moment I called out to him with a red blush on his face.

༻❁༺

I truly regret the fact that I haven't honed my acting skill.

But that adversary of mine who was fully equipped with both talent and virtue said he would teach me how to act when there was a chance.

My adversary is so nice. Like my home, he's the gentlest harbor, the most solid supporter behind my back...

༻❁༺

...my ass!

༻❁༺

I was on tenterhooks the whole day, fearing that my adversary would take me as a sick pervert lusting for his flesh and soul. After I returned to my hotel room, locked the door, turned off the light, and drew the curtains to a close, I watched that video again and then found that the scene I was watching when he came in was, in fact, his solo act. Turns out, I didn't expose jack shit!

Then why the hell was he acting all awkward around me in the break room earlier?!

Acting frozen stiff, cringing and twitching, hesitating and sputtering all over... Was that all an impromptu performance just to play along with me?!

༻❁༺

I was trapped in an awkward state for so long! For nothing!

I'm so pissed!

Fuming with rage, I removed my makeup and took a shower before plopping on my bed with a face mask on to scroll through Weibo.

Due to my 'accidental like' slip-up on the Weibo post earlier this morning, I successfully reaped a ton of curses and personal attacks bestowed benevolently by the fans of my adversary with passion. The more I took in, the more wisdom I gained, eventually learning to conceal my tracks—by commandeering Little Chen's Weibo account with brute force.

༻❁༺

I had only managed to sail my ship for barely an hour earlier in the day. Before I could even bath in the wholesomeness as well as the beloved atmosphere, the other character in the ship had unexpectedly barged in, shattering it into pieces.

I must recover my lost fluff!

I haven't caught up with the class yet! I've yet to savor all the fluff! I've yet to clearly figure out the key premise, as well as the plotline for the ship! I've yet to understand the ship in great detail!

༻❁༺

My adversary's fans taught me how to become mature.

The Niangzi Army taught me how to love.
