Gu Wei, the popular yet controversial lead dancer of boy band T.ATW.

Jiang Xun, a god-tier professional esports player.

One day, after a certain variety show aired, these complete strangers became a trending topic together.

Gu Wei’s Anti-Fans: Do these two have anything to do with each other? Gu Wei is absolutely shameless. He’ll try to leech fame off anything that moves, even esports legends. Ignore him, ignore him!

Fans of Jiang Xun’s Technique: If our God Xun wanted to, he could buy this whole country. If he’s playing around with some nameless celeb, he’ll just play until he gets bored and moves on.

But before long, an unexpectedly heated controversy sparked around the two:

Jiang Xun slacks off during a livestream to promote a celebrity!

Jiang Xun’s little brother Jiang Ying says he’s being forced to defend his nemesis Gu Wei against anti-fans!

Gu Wei, Jiang Xun… a shocking affair?!

Netizens: ???

The two do have talks of an engagement brewing between them, but it wasn’t Jiang Xun who Gu Wei fell for first… it was Jiang Xun’s reaction memes.

When Jiang Xun first met Gu Wei, he came away with the impression that Gu Wei was his diehard fan. He never would have imagined Gu Wei was only a fan of his memes.

Gu Wei: Ge… I think your reaction memes are better looking than you.

Jiang Xun: Little Gu, you’re a little rebel, aren’t you?

Then, affection gradually began to grow between the two. Gu Wei finally mustered up the courage to confess his feelings to Jiang Xun.

Gu Wei: Jiang Xun, I think I’ve started to ship us.

Jiang Xun, fiercely: You’re late. I’ve already become your stan.

I'll have to say, this was probably one of the best novels I've read that's on NU! First time writing a review, and it's been a while since I finished reading, but here's a review with mild spoilers~

Merits:

    1. The pacing. The pacing of this novel was very well constructed, and, in my opinion, was perfect. It flowed pretty smoothly, but it wasn't boring at all.
    2. The characters. MC and ML are both extremely loveable. Side characters like ML's sibling, MC's diehard fan from ML's e-sports team, ML's supportive family, and the MC's fellow T. ATW band mates are all loveable! Even the antagonist-type characters are pretty well created, instead of just being an extremely obvious and plain "Here for Plot and stereotypical tr*shy villain" character.
    3. The interactions. The characters interacting with each other were all interesting to read. MC and ML's fluffy and funny moments; ML's family and his background of once being an actor (which is how he has so much reaction memes of him) ; MC's background with his own family; and MC, ML, and ML's younger brother just. Existing. MC's support from his true fans and his band mates were hilarious and heartwarming, especially at the end
    4. The story itself. There's a healthy amount of angst and fluff. I would say that the author wrote the backstory quite well: the unravelling of 'Why Gu Wei is so controversial' and Gu Wei's background was surprisingly (to me) well-written. The ending is satisfyingly sweet.
Demerits

Personally, I don't have a lot of complaints. However, I have seen other reviews, and I understand that some people might not like some parts of the story, so I did my best to compile the criticisms that I noticed myself while reading.
    1. The personalities/dynamic. As I said above, I don't have a lot of complaints, however: if you're looking for something out-of-the ordinary when it comes to the shou/gong, you might not like the novel. The MC is the shou, and he's clumsy, slightly shy, and to be frank: pretty dense. The ML is the gong, and he's like the stereotypical gong: Strong, aloof, and pe*verted.
    2. The cliches and misunderstandings. Going to be honest here, I did feel second-hand embarrassment at some of their interactions. Cliches, misunderstandings, accidents, and so on, but on the other hand, was pretty funny.
      Spoiler

      For example, MC expects a client to add him, and when ML adds him, it's a cliche misunderstanding which doesn't get cleared up until later. But, wait. It doesn't stop there: MC texts some ambiguous words which naturally leads ML into thinking MC's selling his body, which also leads to more misunderstandings.

      [collapse]
      Overall, if you can't stand cliches and/or misunderstandings, you may not enjoy this story as much.
    3. Netizens. Although some are decent and supportive, I felt like the comments were a bit much in the novel. Took up at least 40% of the novel, I'd say. I would say it was a bit much, reading all of the contradictory commenters.
Overall, I'd say it's a must-read! I quite enjoyed it. I completed reading it, and I may read it again in the future. Although the beginning is pretty cliche, the later parts are well-written with explanations on MC's backstory and interactions.

This story has nothing extraordinary so why the 5 stars?

Its obviously because instead of focusing on how OP the MC or ML were or face slapping. This story focused on how freakin bad cyber-bullying is! Even tho I would have liked more emphasis on this subject but I'm already satisfied that the author brought this subject up to this degree in her novel. Normally, its just like the entertainment industry is super vicious this and that and then here you go face slapping epic moments. They never highlight an imp... more>> problem like this. The comment you just left casually while scrolling can affect someone's life you know. Words cut way deep than you can even think.A person might be going through a rough patch in their life and you don't even know what effect your words will have on them.I was so freakin tired of this stuff and I'm glad someone called it out about being bad. That alone earns these 5 stars from me!

Story:3.5/5

The story simply focused on the MC and ML and their love life. It was cute and simple and didn't drag on. Plus I really like this orthodox step by step dating method a lot. Whether its fast hook up or slow burn, it all goes to kissing and the bed scenes.I really like how they started dating first and then casually flirted while going further step by step. ML may be a bully but he really did respect the MC's boundaries a damn lot! So if you are interested in that.I recommend this to you. Except that, the MC was pretty typical (but I think it can't be helped due to his past) tho he caused me a lot of 2nd hand embarrassment lol. The plot was simple. Both entertainment and e-sports elements were there but not heavily focused on. Anyway, it was a light and casual story.

Awesome and loving side characters are a total catch in it tho!Jiang Ying (i love this gossip loving fierce cutie, gonna read his story next), Sunny (the fierce cool hedgehog jiejie) and all of his bandmates (I literally love them soooo much that I actually want a story of each one of them!)

There are actually a lot of points in the bad reviews that can be proven wrong but I can't be bothered. All I will say is Read it Yourself and Judge for Yourself! <<less

Enjoyable story, nice and sweet

Wouldn't reread it but also I read it all in a day and don't regret doing so either.

There are slight dark themes featured later on (child ab*se, depression and mental health struggles) but a super fluffy story overall.

Cute story full of sweetness and comedy, with adorable cast of characters. I find it ridiculous and futile when readers complain endlessly about a book's character profile or content. Yes this MC is an innocent and naive character... so what? In real life, if someone you know is too naive or lazy or spoiled or s*upid or s**tty or whatever, no amount of complaining would change things lmao. If you don't like a fictional character, just quit and say you don't like the character setting... no need to whine extensively... more>> and write an essay about it lmao. It's not like your extensive monologue can change things... yeah... just like in real life. <<less

I love how the misunderstandings did not dragged on and was only used briefly to make the readers laugh. I love how this is too feel good that I can't keep myself fron smiling and giggling every single chapter. I love how Gu Wei's genuine fans are toooo pure, loving and supporting -especially Sunny !! I love you giiiirl!!-, they wouldnt waver even if tons and tons of anti fan diss on their idol and remained loyal to Gu Wei, protecting him every single time. I love this, I love... more>> it so much im cryiiing. Obviously it have many weaknesses, but it wasnt something you can't overlook. The MC is a bit of an airhead, but it is funny af and it was mostly because he's too pure and genuine. The Male Lead is pe*verted, sometimes--no most of the times, but he clearly have boundaries set. Once Gu Wei felt discomfort he'll stop, and he wouldnt do things to Gu Wei when the latters defenseless ---UNLIKE SENIOR BROTHER WHO FEELS UP HIS SHIDI!!*GROWL AND USES HIS PYTHON BODY TO GET OFF DISGUST***--. Gu Wei and Jiang Xun is obviously not flawless, but it is that fact that made you like them even more. OVERALL THIS IS A GOOD READ, I WILL DEFINITELY COME BACK HEREEEE ONCE IN A WHILE. <<less

I don't understand why some people hated the book, but I loved it. Read it pretty fast too honestly.

Read it if you want:

Some fluff

Absolutely cute relationship

C O M E D Y (really during the 2nd ep showbiz arc I was dead laughing)

Some angst

Cute MC x not really, but yes a perv ml

Good face slapping

Absolutely best fandom

Devoted ml

Pretty light hearted novel overall

Now for one extra thing I'd like to mention ... more>>
Spoiler

It was supposed to be funny and light-hearted, but my perception of things and looking through facades made me really sad for the things MC went through. I'm glad his issues didn't magically get solved, but I would have loved it even more if it was more on depth, (cuz I'm a sucker for angst and love torturing myself) , but still I loved the way it was handled and explained.

[collapse]

Overall rating: 4.5/5

Author did really well, no loose ends left, everything was solved and everything mentioned was there for a reason. Really good story. <<less

i don't really write reviews and this is my first time doing it! (mostly because I feel like many of the readers are already able to echo my sentiments) but as a co-member of weiwei's (mc) defense squad, I felt it wrong to not put my two cents in about some reviews talking about how unlikeable MC is.

this is by no means the best novel ever written (hence the 4-star rating), I say I definitely stayed more for the cute dynamic between several of the characters and much of the... more>> plot as opposed to being overly critical about the writing style. if you're looking for a novel that'll change your life, this probably isn't it. the novel is overall funny, pretty light-hearted with some elements of pain due to what the MC has been through, and heart-warming.

i think the parts that hit my heart the most mid-read was whenever ml:

Spoiler

established the fact that MC deserved all the love he was getting. it wasn't only that ML was doing all he can so that mc's image was cleaned up, but that he actually had an existing fandom and a group of people behind him that were always willing to stand by him regardless of ml's presence or not.

[collapse]

in this manner, I think there's a sort of hurt/comfort genre slipped into the novel. contrary to what others may say that MC might be (and he honestly is) clumsy, reckless, naive, and honestly, pretty s*upid when it comes to social media handling (😭), he's also very earnest, hard-working, kind, and honestly just doing his f*cking best in a place where many people are outright just against him.
Spoiler

he honestly didn't have the best adults around him like... his mom abandoned him after finding someone new and his dad deadass said be an artist so you can talk to more people and get rid of your depression... LMAO (f*ckyourdad. jpg).

[collapse]

MC is young, timid, and earnest and he's only 18 at the start of the novel, it makes a lot of sense that he's still trying to figure the world out and just doing his best. I enjoyed his journey a lot and absolutely love how the ML supported him kindly and consistently along the way (even if he is indeed a big p* /nsrs). I cried alongside mc's journey in the same way all his fans did and you can bet your ass i'd have been in his defense squad from the start if I was in the novel as well.

while we're at it, p.s.
Spoiler

f*ck his agency, man. can't believe it took the ML intervening before y'all actually actively tried to protect weiwei.

Just finished reading this one and I gotta say, I really enjoyed it!

I've read a sum of great danmei novels this year and this one didn't let me down either. I liked the characters, the writing and the overall reading experience.

The plot isn't the kind of plot that attracts me enormously, especially with the amount of things the author just glazes over in order to create an almost perfect scenario for their relationship to happen (which is indeed the cool thing about fiction, it doesn't have to be realistic, but... more>> here it somehow feels like its missing something, maybe some more worldbuilding).

Overall, it's a pretty sturdy 4 out of 5 and I'll be diving right into the sequel about Jiang Ying ~ <<less

Disregarding the arranged marriage (really?) and surprising widespread acceptance of two public figures being gay (with no negativity at all on the homo aspect??), this novel was super fun to read.

Light hearted, very funny (laughed out loud a few times), and even got a bit steamy suggestive at parts (without any actual smut TT). Love how I can envision the. Jpgs without even seeing any of them.

Only thing is I wasn’t that invested in MC’s ‘tragic’ backstory. Maybe the start of the novel needed to have even more angst or... more>> negativity, or reveal his history and weave it into his actions a bit deeper (generally go through it in a paragraph or two, haha) so that the face slapping would be even more satisfying.

That being said, their chemistry and sweetness is off the charts, knew it would be a gem ten chapters in. FFXW! <<less

Man, I was expecting a very fluffy experience, but holy shit, I didn't see the Depression tag ROFL.

I really liked the relationship between the ML and MC, though sometimes I raise an eyebrow at some parts where the ML "bullies" the MC. However, that little complaint is just a nitpick. A great deal of people probably finds it funny, but I guess I just like it when its the gong/seme/top who's getting bullied ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯

THIS REALLY DESERVES 5 stars!!

Actually I want to give 4 stars for not getting enough, but when I recalled how I was smiling foolishly when reading their love story, I couldn't bring myself to reduce a star.

This story is really good with warm, sweet moments. How two people slowly get to know each other. ML and MC from the start they are engaged, so how these two people take one step at a time is the plot. ML is one of the best MLs I have ever read. He is... more>> a bully when it comes to teasing our MC but he is mature and caring and lovable. MC on the other hand, poor kid, subjected to ab*se, didn't have anyone to take care of him, don't know what is love. Finally he got the meaning of love after he met MC. It touches some topic of clinical depression too.

But I feel like this story really do have a lot of potential like undercurrent but the author just skimmed through it rather than diving deeply. There were so many meaningful moments but they were not narrated deep. That did little disappointed me. Like for example, there is a scene where ML will say MC is finally having a place called home that is ML's place, but the author didn't write MC's emotions there. Here anyone would have felt emotional, loved. There are some others moments like this that needed much narration.

But this is NOT AMAZON PRODUCT REVIEW. So don't hesitate to read this good piece. It really won't waste your time. <<less

Sweet, simple and enjoyable.

Don't expect deep development of the characters although it touches some heavy topics like depression, ab*se and trauma.

Read it if you look for pure fluffy love and ML doting on MC.

Overall a 3.5. Doesn't bring anything new to the table in writing nor is game changing in plot but the sweetness is nice here

This is an easy, enjoyable read. If you want fluff, meng and dog food this one's for you. I accidentally read the sequel first and since I enjoyed that one, I came here to check.

The story is pretty light and fun to read, nothing complicated. ML is pretty handsy and loves to tease the MC a lot! While our MC although he had a very traumatic experience as a child and was constantly bullied when he entered the entertanment industry because of misunderstandings, still preserved his innocence and perseveres to... more>> reach his dream. Thank goodness for his friends who's always there for him and also our ML who helps him in his journey to healing. Not to mention ML's family, the shippers and the other side characters that are also funny and very supportive of our couple. <<less

Five star review! No question about it. Personally, I love this type of novel. A perfect twist of fluff and seriousness that deals with the characters life especially MC.

I won't make my review too long. All I can say is give this novel a chance but just a few warning, just dont make your expectation too high. If you are a reader who expect a formal way of writing then you wouldnt like this novel. The style of this novel is written uses the comments from the said viewers or... more>> fans since its an entertainment x e-sport plot. So, you will alway see this type of style on the whole chapter. I just appreciate that the translator did a good job to make it look a bit formal and not too messy to look at.

All I can say, if you enjoy purely romance. ML doting on the MC, no heavy misunderstanding, I think there is almost no misunderstanding going on. The MC healing from his past trauma then this novel is for you. It is very light read since its short which is so sad. I wanted more since I love the dynamics between the main couple. I know this novel is not everyone's cup of tea but give it a chance. I hope you'll enjoy it!

Jiang Xun x Gu Wei <3 Love this couple!! <<less

That was sweet as hell!

Gu Wei's past is really distressing but the story is full of fluff and sweetness... I love both of their team members... Gu Wei's team members and manager is savage! I wish author had added more of Jiang Xu's team members as well but it was never lacking... A light hearted novel... Who like this type should give it a go...
