After Going on a Husbands’ Variety Show with My CEO Husband by Ning Xuan

Synopsis:

Chu Yao shot to internet fame because of his looks, yet he was one of the rare low-key figures in the entertainment industry. His social media accounts promoted only his work and never revealed anything about his private life.

No one expected that one day his secret account would be exposed—and that its entire vibe would be completely different.

Netizens obsessively combed through every detail and uncovered the mansion and sports cars in his uploaded photos, along with all kinds of limited-edition luxury goods. The evidence that he was secretly a rich second-generation heir seemed ironclad.

Chu Yao: …I just happen to have a nominal husband who belongs to the very top tier of the financial elite.

One night, Chu Yao appeared on a livestream. A man flashed past behind him, and when viewers asked who the man was, Chu Yao’s brain short-circuited for a moment. “My brother…”

The next second, his husband in name only walked over, draped an arm over his shoulders, and pulled him into his embrace. “He likes calling me ‘big brother’ in private. A little fun between husbands.”

From that moment on, news of their secret marriage shook the entire internet.

Netizens soon dug up the identity of Chu Yao’s husband: none other than Jin Zhihan, the foremost figure among North City’s elite.

A husbands’ variety show that was then in preparation seized the opportunity. Certain that the pair would never agree, the production team nevertheless worked up the courage to invite Chu Yao and Jin Zhihan onto the show. To everyone’s surprise, they accepted.

Jin Zhihan’s side replied, “My wife likes it. I’ll keep him company and let him have some fun.”

Netizens rejoiced. The show became a hit before it even aired.

—What did we do to deserve getting to watch a domineering CEO show off his love for us?

—Please give us lots of sweet moments. I want to see a real-life romance between the wealthy elite and the entertainment industry.

Just as the whole internet’s anticipation reached its peak, a marketing account dumped a bucket of cold water over everyone: You’re imagining too much. Jin Zhihan and Chu Yao are only in a contract marriage. They’ll divorce sooner or later.

Forewarned by that claim, netizens became cautious and did not dare ship them too hard—until a video creator compiled all the sweetness hidden in countless tiny details.

Jin Zhihan’s phone wallpaper was a photo of Chu Yao.

Something Chu Yao mentioned casually would later be quietly made reality by Jin Zhihan.

When Jin Zhihan was too busy with work to dry his hair, Chu Yao dried it for him and placed a cup of warm milk by his hand.

During an escape-room game, Chu Yao nearly fell. Jin Zhihan instinctively caught him in his arms, and afterward Chu Yao stayed glued to Jin Zhihan’s side.

Netizens: The people themselves are stuffing sugar into our mouths like crazy, and we’re still not supposed to ship them? There’s no justice in the world!

Later, at the show’s wrap-up banquet, a drunk Chu Yao left early, and Jin Zhihan departed right after him.

While looking for them, a cameraman accidentally caught Jin Zhihan and Chu Yao kissing beneath the moonlight.

Dizzy with drink, Chu Yao tried to push Jin Zhihan away. “You’re about to bite my lips raw…”

Beep—

The scene was too intense to broadcast, and the feed was cut instantly.

Netizens: Couldn’t you have let us finish watching? We can pay extra!!
