The sweetest in the entertainment industry

The three big fan leaders immediately went into battle mode, and if it weren't for the barrier, a full-blown brawl would have broken out right away.

If this happened online, two solo fans could easily tear the CP fans apart. But this happened offline, in front of the two main celebrities and countless viewers. Adults are bound to have some reservations. After being stopped by security and exchanging a few words, they quickly returned to their seats. Then, when they turned around, they saw the two celebrities looking at them with worried expressions. Judging from their posture, if it weren't for a host pulling them back, they probably would have already rushed over. Instantly, their last bit of dissatisfaction dissipated.

Today we're here to resolve issues, not to argue. The program has limited time, so we can't waste it on such trivial matters.

Seeing that the guests had calmed down, the two hosts exaggeratedly wiped their sweat before releasing Xie Linzheng and Shen Zhaoyue's arms and picking up the microphones to ease the atmosphere.

"Hey, Ms. Li, did you bring a spare set of workout clothes?"

"I brought it, I brought it! Let's hurry backstage to change! When we were told to wear sportswear, I thought, how can I dress so casually for such an important occasion? It would be so disrespectful to the audience! I was supposed to wear a little dress and heels, and put my hair up. But now I realize that the production team's emphasis on attire is not without reason."

"It seems the three people on the other side are true fans, otherwise they wouldn't be in such a hurry."

"Goodbye Couple!"

"That's so exciting!"

Welcome everyone!

The audience laughed at their lingering fear, and Xie and Shen could only manage a wry smile before repeatedly apologizing to the host.

This show is absolutely amazing. To create it, besides having a strong backing and extensive connections, the chief planner's abilities must also be incredibly strong.

Lu Zhixian was afraid that the host was not experienced enough to control the situation, so he invited two very important figures in the industry. Even though Xie and Shen were currently very popular, he still had to give them face.

"The show has limited time, and the time allotted to each couple is fixed. We hope everyone understands this and doesn't waste time on trivial matters."

"Now, the production team has invited your idols to the show. You can ask them any questions you have, as long as they are broadcast!"

"So, shall we start in order, beginning with guest number one?"

Since the show mainly discusses couples, and the three fans are positioned with the couple fans in the middle, there is a large and bright "①" on the screen in front of Huang Fei.

Having witnessed the bloody infighting between the three fan groups of his parents since childhood, Lu Zhixian's thinking is truly meticulous to the core. The numbers in front of each fan group are their respective support colors, and even the podium and microphone are decorated with support elements from each group.

After calming down, the three of them took a closer look and were all satisfied.

After seeing it clearly, the audience in the live stream showered Lu Zhixian with praise, wishing they could sing his praises to the heavens!
If they had known that something that had troubled them for so many years could be resolved so easily, they would have tried to reach out to her fans long ago.

Huang Fei coughed lightly and immediately dropped a bombshell: "Are you two really together?"

After a moment's hesitation, the two went on stage and spoke for the first time. The order of their speech was the same as when they were children: Shen Zhaoyue spoke first, and Xie Linzheng gave a brief summary.

"We grew up together and have a deep friendship spanning over ten years, closer than brothers. Although we haven't been able to work together or appear in the same frame in recent years due to work, our relationship has remained excellent. We often travel together on our days off and visit each other's parents and families when we go back to our hometowns. I don't know if you understand what I mean?"

"Yeah, we're really just brothers."

Okay, first question: directly selling out CP fans, but also saying that the two have a good relationship and even proactively revealing that they have traveled together and gone home together in private.

Huang Fei's eyes welled up with tears, but she forced them back: "I'll ask two more questions."

The two were unusually magnanimous today, nodding simultaneously and saying in unison, "Please ask."

"Xie Linzheng, please explain why you keep staring at Zhao Zhao's mouth and swallowing. Would a brother do that? Don't deny it, over the past ten years, I've personally filmed eight cameras, 4K high-definition video from all angles, more than three hundred times. I believe everyone can distinguish between friendship and love."

The audience erupted in chaos, like frozen dumplings thrown into a hot oil pan, and the live stream crashed instantly. Countless netizens couldn't even get in! They all went to various platforms to vent their frustration!

Lu Zhixian was so anxious he was jumping up and down! He kept urging the website's technical staff!

They were usually lukewarm at first, but now that they've gained a lot of attention, they can't handle it!

The staff reacted quickly, and for the sake of their houses, cars, and money, they quickly stabilized the live stream. Then, as soon as countless netizens entered, they heard Xie Linzheng explaining:
"Because I am prone to water retention, I deliberately reduce my water intake before each performance. So when I swallow, it's just because I'm thirsty, and it has nothing to do with my sexual orientation."

I don't know if everyone believes it or not, but Xie Linzheng said it without batting an eye.

Huang Fei was still not satisfied and asked Shen Zhaoyue again: "Then Zhaozhao, have you learned to sleep alone now? As far as I know, you two liked to sleep together since you were trainees, and even after you were no longer bound, you still lived together all these years!! How do you explain that?" At this time, she dared to say such things because she had evidence on hand.

Regardless of whether the evidence was taken by a sasaeng fan or by her own photography, it is against the rules for a legitimate fan site admin.

Now, she has made up her mind to fight to the bitter end.

Today's show is for solo fans to break up couples, while couple fans come to give up on their relationship.

When celebrities create a CP (couple pairing) dynamic, what they want is ambiguity and uncertainty. Solo fans have their own reasons for spending money, while CP fans have their own reasons for spending money.

A qualified artist will respect the personal wishes of their fans and earn a little money without much effort.

If the two had a bad relationship, that would be one thing, but they had a good relationship. Huang Fei really couldn't understand why they would participate in this program.

After tossing and turning for several nights, everything pointed to the same conclusion: one of the two men already had a sister-in-law...

Solo fans also had this guess, so all three groups sent representatives over.

Shen Zhaoyue blushed slightly and couldn't help but glance at Xie Linzheng. Xie Linzheng raised his hand and patted his back reassuringly. Shen Zhaoyue quickly regained his composure and chuckled helplessly.

“We are constantly being chased by people, so we move frequently. Living alone is not safe. Living with someone we absolutely trust and are used to living with provides some support. Also, housing prices in Beijing are very high, so this way we can save on rent.”

The CP fans were exhausted from asking so many questions, so they stopped talking after he finished answering.

Because her eyes were glistening with tears, she knew she wouldn't be able to hold back any longer.

Seeing her tilting her head back and sniffling frantically, both sides' solo fans almost burst out laughing!

When it was their turn, they were each asked two questions. The first question was whether their idol had someone he liked.
Both Shen and Xie stated that their careers were their top priority and they had no intention of developing personal relationships.

When it came to the second question, considering that the two of them had decisively broken up the CP and firmly rejected the sister-in-law, the two solo fans were in a good mood. They only asked about the two's work plans casually before deciding to end the conversation.

Unexpectedly, Huang Fei, who had been holding back for so long, couldn't hold back her tears any longer. At the last moment, she grabbed the podium and shouted out in frustration:

"Why did you two come here today? With your status, who could force you to come? Did you make a special trip just to 'sell out' us CP fans? Why? On behalf of 8.3 million fellow CP fans, I demand an answer! Answer me!!"

The two took a deep breath. Although they had expected a strong reaction, they still couldn't help but feel alarmed!

Fortunately, their teams had a contingency plan. Shen Zhaoyue spoke gently, first trying to calm them down: "Because your sincerity is equally precious, and our career development paths are different, we will rarely have the opportunity to work together in the future. Rather than waiting for an unknown outcome, we would like you to know the truth."

Xie Linzheng nodded, bent slightly into the microphone, and spoke candidly, a rare occurrence for him: "When we joined the company, one of us was eleven and the other was ten. Almost twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye, which is a very long time. No matter why you like us, we are grateful and thankful. Regarding the CP issue, we didn't clarify it at first simply because of professionalism. After all, we are a boy group, and that's how we develop. Later, it was because we couldn't bear to tell the truth, afraid of hurting you. The reason we've mustered the courage to speak out now is because we've realized one thing: honesty is more important than being reluctant."

That being said, everyone in the industry knows what really happened.

After a few years of development for these commercially-oriented couples, their fanbase has been largely purified, and they need an opportunity to completely separate. Now that there's such a good platform, the appearance fee that Lu Zhixian paid isn't money, but resources. Even if the two of them are foolish, the company isn't.

That's the real reason they're here.

But the fans didn't know.

Huang Fei was furious, but before she could say anything, the host came over to comfort her.

Unable to cry in front of so many people, she put away her camera, her face cold, and was the first to leave the studio.

Things have escalated to this point, which will definitely cause a stir, but at least it's been done in a respectable manner.

The CP ended overnight, but the CP fans also learned that the two still have a good relationship and live together, and there is no sister-in-law issue yet.

Even if the kind-hearted fans of the pairing leave, there will always be some lingering fans who will continue to entangle themselves with the two of them.

Lu Zhixian watched with a sigh, nudging his sister's arm to remind her to pay attention: "The next couple is even more exciting, don't get distracted!" (End of Chapter)
