Don't Put Limits on Happiness

After closing the chat window, Sheng Nian opened Starblog again and cleared out his private messages.

Finally, he opened the Production Team's official account.

As soon as he opened it, he discovered that the Production Team had already posted a trailer.

A little curious, Sheng Nian tapped it to watch.

It opened with the theme song for this season of Heart-Throbbing Observation Diary.

"Beneath the museum's blazing lights

Find that bottle of heart-fluttering genes

Choose the one destined for you

Spend all day roaming Evernight Sky

Hearts keep fluttering

Is it the suspension bridge effect, or is it you before me?

The Ferris Wheel reaches the very top

How do we reserve a kiss?

..."

Sheng Nian hummed along with the melody for a moment. "This song's actually pretty catchy."

As the theme song played, Sheng Nian focused on the edited footage.

Although Sheng Nian had run into the other guests during filming, he wasn't very clear on what had happened with the other groups, so he perked up, ready to enjoy some shipping.

The video reached the Pheromone Museum segment. Sheng Nian remembered that only Qi Xiao and Mo Yuanyuan, and Chu Yue and Nie Ge, had found each other's bottles of pheromone perfume there.

The trailer happened to show that very part.

Mo Yuanyuan carefully chose a spot and moved the bottles on the display shelf, planning to hide her own perfume among the many others.

Unexpectedly, once she moved a bottle aside, she saw Qi Xiao's face on the other side.

Qi Xiao reached through from the other side and caught the bottle of pheromone perfume Mo Yuanyuan was about to put on the shelf. Raising his slashed eyebrow slightly, he said, "Caught you."

Sheng Nian: "!!!"

You scared our Yuanyuan! But they're still pretty shippable, hehe~

He kept watching. Chu Yue and Nie Ge seemed more like they were on the same wavelength. Both were betas and had no pheromones, but they had independently chosen violet as their main note. Even when hiding their perfumes, they were perfectly in sync, tucking them into the bay window in the museum's rest area.

Sheng Nian thought, You can really tell here that they're a couple who've lived together for a long time. Even their habits when hiding things are so alike.

The trailer was mostly edited from the most interesting footage. In it, Sheng Nian saw Mu Ran following Mo Yuanyuan and Qi Xiao with a task prop, unable to bring himself to act before finally giving up with candid self-deprecation; Jiang Shu and He Gu's forehead kiss on the Ferris Wheel; Ye Heng watching forlornly as He Gu ran toward Jiang Shu; Tang Jiang walking the runway at A Bar...

The video ended with the guests' individual interviews.

Sheng Nian was still laughing uncontrollably at Mo Yuanyuan's remarks, which sounded like she was choosing consorts, but the final two clips featured him and Yan Feizhuo.

He heard himself say in the video, "I came to pursue someone who might never look back."

A shot of Jiang Shu's back appeared at just the right moment.

Sheng Nian was still grumbling about the Production Team editing him into such a tragic figure, then thought smugly, Looks like my acting's pretty good too. At least I fooled all of them.

Along with the final line of the background music, "Don't put limits on happiness; love's rewards are everywhere,"

He heard Yan Feizhuo say, "I came to chase the moon."

Sheng Nian froze. Again... the moon.

The video finished, and the screen went black after being left untouched for too long.

Only after a moment of stunned silence did Sheng Nian come back to his senses. He unlocked his Light Brain again and opened the comments beneath the trailer.

[Hehe~ why does Yuanyuan look so guilty about being caught...]

[Actually, looking at it this way, all the CPs this season have a lot going for them! Mo-Qi, Chu-Nie, Jiang-He, Sheng-Yan, Jiang-Sheng, He-Ye, Sheng-Tang... they're all so shippable!]

[You listed so many up there, but how come not a single one includes Mu Mu! I'm going to riot. We fans are going to riot...]

[I'm dying hahahahahaha, poor Mu Ran really has it rough!]

[So President Yan was already describing Sheng Nian as the moon during his individual interview...]

[Damn it, this hurts so much! The person Sheng Nian said might never look back in his individual interview was Jiang Shu, right? As if that wasn't enough, the next second we get President Yan's confession... Production Team, I'm going to mail you razor blades!]

[This world is just one huge "he loves him, and he loves him"...]

[Sheng Nian! Just like the theme song says, don't put limits on happiness; love's rewards are everywhere. Turn around and look at Yan Feizhuo!]

[Now I think it's fine if Jiang Shu and He Gu stay locked together. That way, Sheng Nian will eventually give up and notice Yan Feizhuo.]

After scrolling through the comments, Sheng Nian suddenly remembered his original purpose.

He switched back to his own Star Network profile and opened the Starblog post with the mock relationship announcement.

His finger hovered over the "Delete" button.

[What's going on? Why can't I see Sheng Nian's relationship announcement on Starblog all of a sudden?]

[Same here.]

[I can't see it either.]

[Is there some kind of bug?]

Soon, someone posted a screenshot of an inquiry to Starblog customer service on the Bright Moon Welcomes Spring CP Station.

[I just asked. Starblog's official response was that they checked and there wasn't any bug.]

[No bug? Could it be...]

[No, please. I thought that might be the reason, but I refuse to accept it. I only just got a taste of sweetness, and now you're stabbing me already? What is this!]

[Did Sheng Nian really delete it?]

[Probably. Honestly, I already thought it was a pleasant surprise that Sheng Nian agreed to post it...]

[It got too much attention. Sheng Nian definitely didn't want something like this spreading so widely. He's afraid Jiang Shu will see it.]

[Damn it, now I'm even more afraid that Sheng Nian didn't even write the caption himself...]

[Stop talking. I'll jump, okay? I'll jump!]

Soon, "Sheng Nian deletes relationship announcement on Starblog" also shot up the trending searches.

Jiang Shu, who had spent the evening at home watching Sheng-Yan CP fans celebrate with a gloomy expression and feeling rather displeased, immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the trending topic.

He had known it. Sheng Nian must have only been cooperating with Yan Feizhuo. There was no way he had truly posted something like that willingly.

More likely, the person behind that Starblog post hadn't been Sheng Nian at all, but a member of his studio's staff.

Sheng Nian only had him in his heart. He was even unwilling to film the intimate scenes in the script, so how could he possibly be willing to post such an ambiguous caption with Yan Feizhuo?

Jiang Shu thought, The next time I see Sheng Nian, I need to tell him to keep his distance from Yan Feizhuo so he doesn't get burned. Someone like him isn't someone Sheng Nian can afford to get involved with.

Sheng Nian knew nothing about any of this. Once he was done, he logged off and went to sleep. He had to get up early tomorrow to sign the contract at Evernight Sky, so he needed to go to bed early and get plenty of rest.
