Tang Lin gritted his teeth and finally said it. "I want to end our pairing. Is that okay?"
Yang Xin looked over sharply, her expression a little stunned and a little hurt.
"Why?" she asked in confusion.
Tang Lin felt guilty. "Han Feng told me to. You've seen what he's like. He's not exactly easygoing. If I don't do what he says, what if he loses it..."
"Tang Lin!"
Yang Xin slapped the table in anger. "You were the one who wanted to start this, and now you're ending it just like that? For someone who isn't worth it, you're dragging my reputation through the dirt?"

Yang Xin left. Tang Lin sat there in a daze for a long while before scratching his head, completely bewildered.

Tang Lin stopped thinking about it and immediately opened Weibo to write a post.
He took all the blame, saying that he and Yang Xin were just good friends and asking everyone to stop shipping them!
His fans left comments supporting him, but Yang Xin's fans weren't having it.
"Then what's this video about? Do good friends eat out of the same bowl?"
"Third Brother Tang, you owe us Xin fans an explanation today, or we won't let this go!"
Yang Xin's fans didn't want to give up on the
