Each scene was sweeter than the last.
Li Changyuan's defenses broke down more and more each time.
He questioned his secretary, "Wasn't this supposed to be a scandal involving Xiao Yuan? Why are these two here again and again and again?"
He sounded almost despairing.
Why were they everywhere?
Did Wu Bai have some on-screen exposure KPI to meet?
His secretary dragged the progress bar back. "The most exciting part hasn't even come yet. Hang in there."
The progress bar jumped straight to Polite Duck's segment.
Polite Duck was making a passionate statement. "Everything I did was under the instructions of President Li, Li Changyuan! That's right—the President Li who played Wu Bai CP fanart at full volume during the discussion panel and was hailed as the officiant of their wedding!"
"What? You're asking why he did that? Of course, it's because he was no longer satisfied with the pitifully few Wu Bai updates online. He wanted me to get close to Wu Bai CP and secretly record their interactions so he could compile them into a collection of ultra-sweet clips and make the entire universe ship them for real."
"President Li's love for Wu Bai CP..." Polite Duck took a deep breath. "...is truly profound!"

[Hahahaha, I knew it! President Li never disappoints!]
[President Li truly deserves the title of wedding officiant we bestowed upon him.]
[President Li, a postdoctoral scholar of shipping studies.]
