Series: Fanservice Paradox

3AM, Beijing. A heavy snowfall blanketed the city. After wrapping up the recording of a show, Fang Juexia got into his manager’s car and headed back to the dorm. He sat in silence, staring out the window. The concrete jungle, now softened by snow, looked obedient and still—like stiff limbs finally tucked under a quilt,…

As soon as he heard that, Ling Yi reacted even faster than Fang Juexia and quickly turned the laptop away. “Ah—yeah, that’s pretty much the whole story…” Fang Juexia didn’t really think it was a big deal. After all, on the internet, say something fake enough times and it basically becomes true. Just as he…

He didn’t even need a script to bluff. Fang Juexia could never pull that off. “You—who are you?” “You seriously don’t recognize me?” His voice dragged out lazily, especially at the end of the question. The hand draped over Fang Juexia’s shoulder gave a light shake, fingertips tapping against him. “I’m Pei Tingsong.” The person…

After all, they’d worked together for two years. Fang Juexia was already used to Pei Tingsong’s teasing. He showed no reaction, calmly picking up his jacket from the floor and draping it over himself, ready to leave the practice room. But Pei Tingsong wasn’t used to being ignored. He grabbed his arm. “Hey, is this…

Ever since that airport video landed them on the trending list, Kaleido’s popularity hadn’t let up. Riding the buzz, Cheng Qiang found Fang Juexia and told him to step up his Weibo game. In fact, every member of Kaleido had started their Weibo accounts when they debuted. With Fang Juexia’s own popularity and support from…

Fang Juexia’s surprise gradually faded from his face, like ripples settling back into still water. “No one,” he replied simply. “You’re the only one here?” Pei Tingsong glanced inside, bringing with him a chill from the outdoors. “The movers are downstairs. They’ll be bringing stuff up soon.” Still holding the door open, Fang Juexia finally…

“I told you, it just grazed me. Why are you making such a big deal out of it?” Fang Juexia acted like he didn’t hear him. His expression stayed tightly fixed, unmoving. Honestly, when he ran out just now, he’d actually imagined pushing Pei Tingsong into the ER. It was just the two of them…

Pei Tingsong finally realized where the clothes came from. He pressed a hand to his forehead and looked at Fang Juexia, eyes wide in a “you better explain yourself” kind of way. But Fang Juexia was still lost in thought, sifting through his memory. After a long pause, he finally said, “I think it really…

The bullet comments were flying by like they were on 2x speed. The six of them couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time. “Pei! Ting! Song!” Ling Yi shook him by the shoulders. “Look what you drew!” Jiang Miao and He Ziyan didn’t say a word, but both turned their heads—locking eyes…

Everyone was stunned. And that wasn’t even counting the thousands of fans watching the livestream—most of whom were certain the challenge had already failed. [HOLY SHT HOLY SHT HOLY SHT HOLY SHT HOLY SHT HOLY SHT HOLY SHT HOLY SHT HOLY SHT HOLY SHT HOLY SH*T] [WTF WHY DIDN’T I RECORD THAT?! SOMEONE PLEASE TELL…

Fang Juexia’s sense of time had short-circuited—and with it, his composure unraveled. “Here.” He hastily shoved the mochi into Pei Tingsong’s hand, then forcibly wrenched his arm free and retreated to his own side of the wardrobe. How many minutes were left? He tried to mentally rewind and calculate, but the more he tried, the…

[Hahahahahaha I laughed so hard the neighbor called the cops at 3 a.m.!] [Listen and Song—PEI!] [Justice for ABC Xiao Pei, his reputation’s ruined!] [HELP I CAN’T BREATHE] Pei Tingsong grabbed the Pink Panther plushie off the couch and launched an all-out attack—swinging it down on Ling Yi and Lu Yuan’s heads, then wrapping the…

“Crap, I didn’t bring my car.” Pei Tingsong, a textbook ABC at his core, immediately let an F-bomb fly as frustration kicked in. Fang Juexia didn’t respond, quietly focusing on washing the dishes like he hadn’t heard a thing. “You have a car?” Pei asked while tugging on his cap, still wearing the same grayish-purple…

The power of trending searches is no joke. Fang Juexia was having lunch in the company cafeteria when he received a flood of screenshots and Weibo links from their assistant, Xiao Wen. He hadn’t planned to look, but Xiao Wen was clearly excited and bursting to share, so Fang Juexia eventually clicked on the first…

Xiao Pei cursed a string of “fuck”s under his breath, slamming his shin into the table in his agitation. The pain shot through him like a jolt, and he immediately doubled over, clutching his leg in silence. Right then, the door to the small practice room swung open. Ling Yi walked in holding a giant…

He was the center of the group now—and the one to open the show. He had no choice. As the stage lights came on, Fang Juexia raised his head to the beat, wearing a flawless expression, stepping into the spotlight like nothing was wrong. He kept telling himself not to panic—as long as the internal…

When they were on stage, no matter how tough it got, they held themselves like true idols—poised and powerful. But the moment they stepped off and returned to the dressing room, all six of them were still shaken. Ling Yi even burst into tears. “Did I mess up my vocals?” he asked in a panic,…

It was inevitable—as soon as public attention turned their way, rumors about the group began swirling again, especially around Fang Juexia, who seemed cursed to bring drama wherever he went. But compared to before, he now had more fans actively pushing back against the negativity and standing up for him. For the first time, posts…

Pei Tingsong was somewhat surprised. The moment he spoke, he knew that most people here would not understand what he was thinking or what he was going to do. After all, he had always been like this since childhood, seen by others as nothing more than a tough guy who was not to be messed…

Although the plan was changed at the last minute, they were lucky enough to encounter heavy snowfall the night before. Lin Mo was picky and insisted on shooting on location, so the planning team had no choice but to rush to find a suitable venue. Pei Tingsong shot his solo scenes first. Originally, Fang Jue…
