[Has Xu Chao lost his mind???]
[I've seen people sell their own bodies to get ahead, but this is the first time I've seen someone sell his husband's body to get ahead. Gotta hand it to YOU!]
[So fucking shameless. Young Master Fu must have had eight lifetimes of rotten luck to marry this walking jinx!]
[Haha, who would follow this bitch? Dream on!]
[Um, his follower count has already gone from 600k to 650k.]
After having his fun, Xu Chao went to his agency. The moment he walked in, he heard Chen Chong's furious roar.
"He just keeps milking Fu Sichen! He's got the guts to post it, but I'm afraid I won't live to see it. Delete his Weibo post, right fucking now..."
Turning around, he saw Xu Chao standing meekly at the door. Chen Chong rolled up his sleeves. "I'll just delete him instead!"
Xu Chao took off running. "Chen-ge, I'm declaring my love for Young Master Fu, not cheating on him. It's fiiine!"
Chen Chong was shocked. "You want to cheat on him, too?!"
Xu Chao was equally shocked. "That's not what I meant! I don't! Don't frame me!"
"Scared now? Too late! Your Weibo followers have already hit a million!"
"That fast? I thought it would take until tonight at least. These haters keep saying no, no, no, but their bodies sure are honest." Xu Chao looked even more smug. "A few little haters? Easy."
The sight only infuriated Chen Chong further. He gritted his teeth. "Young Master Fu's bed photos. Go on and post them, Mrs. Fu!"
"Mm, let me find them. I'll post them now."
As he spoke, Xu Chao searched through his phone.
Chen Chong knew the truth behind the arranged marriage better than anyone. If Xu Chao had bed photos of Young Master Fu, he would shit upside down!
He was just about to mock him when he heard him say, "Done."
Chen Chong's heart rate instantly shot up to a hundred and eighty. "How do you have bed photos like that? What exactly have you been doing behind my back... Who's this?"
The young man on the screen lay nestled deep in soft, pure-white bedding, smiling brightly at the camera, pretty and adorable.
"Me!" Xu Chao replied cheerfully. "I took it in my hubby's bed this morning. Pretty, right?"
"Yes, pretty. No, wait, where are Young Master Fu's bed photos?!" Chen Chong demanded.
Xu Chao blinked and pointed at the headboard showing at the edge of the photo. "There. My hubby's bed."
Chen Chong: "..." This was a photo of Fu Sichen's actual "bed"!
It was arguably false advertising and a little rotten, but technically, it held up. Chen Chong tried hard to console himself, then looked up to see Xu Chao tilting his little face up, smiling with extraordinary sweetness and innocence.
Instinctively sensing something was wrong, Chen Chong snatched the phone. One look nearly made him black out.
Buttocks Cool in the Breeze: A million followers already? You little devils keep saying you hate me, but your bodies sure are honest. Hehe, love you too.
[Seriously, I'd crawl out of bed in the middle of the night just to scream this: Xu Chao, are you sick in the head? Who loves you? Get lost, get lost, get lost!]
[Reported for misleading wording. You said you'd post Young Master Fu's bed photos. Why are you posting a selfie?!]
Buttocks Cool in the Breeze: It's a photo taken in my hubby's bed. Isn't that a bed photo?
[I guess it is, but we wanted sexy, seductive bed photos of Young Master Fu with his shirt off, not photos taken in his bed!]
Buttocks Cool in the Breeze: Seeing Young Master Fu costs extra. Wait, you're lusting after my hubby's body right in front of me? How shameless. How trashy.
The haters were used to throwing their weight around online, commenting on this and criticizing that all day. This was the first time someone had called them trashy to their faces, and the worst part was that they couldn't argue back.
They were lusting after Young Master Fu's body. It really was shameless. It really was trashy.
The haters soldiered on in search of new dirt. After searching for ages, they discovered to their astonishment that the young man in the photo was so pretty!
Sunlight spilled over him, making even the fine fuzz on his cheeks clearly visible. His features were delicate and beautiful, like an angel fallen to earth!
Unable to resist zooming in for a look, they spotted a suspicious wet mark on his chin. Was that drool from when he was asleep? Hahaha.
Collectively losing it after Xu Chao's insults, the haters started frantically attacking his drool. Then Xu Chao lost it, too.
How could a handsome little fairy boy drool?!
Slander. It was all slander!
The more Xu Chao protested, the more excited the haters got, editing pictures to recreate what he had actually looked like drooling.
Xu Chao simply threw caution to the wind: Fine, I admit it. That's drool from lusting after my hubby's body. Hmph, I've got a marriage license. Got a problem?
The haters: Stop talking, bro. We're losing it again.
Chen Chong watched Xu Chao make a mess online, only for his follower count to rise instead of fall. The suspicion in his eyes grew stronger. He cleared his throat. "Tell me. What exactly happened these past few days?"
Xu Chao had already thought about this question. As a longtime hopeless romantic, having his heart utterly shattered by love and developing a split personality was perfectly normal, right?
So he immediately put on an agonized expression, as though love had broken his heart.
"Chen-ge, I really never imagined that Lou Jun-gege, whom I loved with everything I had, only saw me as a tool he could use."
"Everything I gave him, all my care and consideration, was just a burden to him. He even plotted against me with Shen Xinbai. Boohoo, I'm so heartbroken, so miserable, I just want to die!"
Chen Chong: "..."
Once upon a time, before he became obsessed with Lou Jun, Xu Chao had been a good kid who loved laughing and fooling around.
It was only after falling for Lou Jun that he had turned into a lovesick idiot.
Now that he had drained the water out of his lovesick brain, Xu Chao had gone back to his normal self.
That explanation made perfect sense!
Chen Chong didn't doubt him in the slightest. He even encouraged him. "Focus on your career. Men will only slow down your sword draw."
Halfway through, Chen Chong suddenly thought of something and immediately changed his tune.
"Truly successful people pursue men and their careers at the same time. Having both makes you a real winner in life."
A yearning look appeared in Xu Chao's eyes, and he eagerly nodded his little head. "You're right, Chen-ge. But I'm technically married right now, so when I get myself a side guy or two, help me keep it quiet."
Chen Chong's face darkened. "Can't you just focus on getting with your husband?!"
Instantly, the man's cold yet sexy face appeared before his eyes, and Xu Chao's thoughts turned dirty. "We're r-really doing that?"
Chen Chong rolled his eyes and ignored him, then happened to bring something else up. "Oh, right. Thanks to that spectacle you made of yourself last night, a husbands' reality show has sent you an invitation."
Xu Chao's expression turned strange. "Don't tell me it's that show that pretends to be about married men in love but is actually all about men messing around with other men?"
Chen Chong glared at him. "What are you talking about? It's a big-budget production, and the guests they invite are all famous couples in the industry. Count yourself lucky you get to ride their coattails."
Xu Chao refused instantly. "Not going."
In the original story, Fu Sichen hadn't participated. The original owner of this body had been paired with a controversial rapper as a couple for the show, with one throwing himself at Lou Jun and the other relentlessly pursuing Shen Xinbai.
While everyone else played up their pairings and showed off their love, those two had dedicated themselves to stealing someone else's man, working together to make the two protagonists look kind and wonderful through their own viciousness and stupidity.
Xu Chao couldn't be bothered to serve as their foil, but... "What did you say? The grand prize is five million?"
