Chapter 14 – Slip Of The Hand King


Contains lots of Weibo Comments

The power of the Hot Search was no joke.

While Fang Juexia was having lunch in the company canteen, he received many screenshots and Weibo links from Assistant Xiao Wen. He originally didn’t want to read them, but Xiao Wen sounded so excited in his messages and had wanted to share so much that Fang Juexia went ahead and clicked open the first one. 

[@I’ve bumped into a real one: Kaleido’s livestream was really amazing. Everyone must click open the video to watch it. There are a lot of boy bands playing the ‘transferring the candy wrapper’ game, but this time, when watching these guys play it, I blushed, my heart started pounding, and I nearly ascended into heaven! Pei Tingsong passing the candy wrapper to Fang Juexia made for too strong of a moment there. I even added a slow-mo playback at the end of the video, and the higher the quality of the video, the more amazing it looks. Kaleido is a real treasure of a boy band, so everyone should go to Station B to watch the recording. The whole thing is full of high energy!]

This Weibo post only showed those few minutes when they were passing the candy wrapper, and the slow-mo part came just when Pei Tingsong was passing the candy wrapper to him, with special effects and background music also having been added to this part. The Weibo post was published at 10 o’clock last night, and had already passed 60,000 forwards by now.

@Neon Girl: Shit! Who doesn’t want to kiss a beautiful baby? //@Flying over the top of the fandom wall: I really find Fang Juexia’s face so delicious ah. All beauties have such a face 5555, but how can someone also have such a long birthmark? A birthmark as beautiful as a woman’s beauty mark / @The Useless Person is Me: My wolf blood is boiling! //@I’m the Emperor of Europe: The moment Pei Tingsong took off his glasses was amazing…. //@Who doesn’t love beautiful Geges: PTS is the youngest in the group??? //@Rotten Women HQ: Holy shit, this candy wrapper doesn’t exist in my eyes, that was purely a forceful kiss ah!! Pei Tingsong is too gong!

These words were strange to Fang Juexia. He had pretty much gotten used to people saying things like— “The hidden rules person who was born just a pretty waste of skin”, “stillborn C position”, “abandoned imperial concubine,” or words that were even more unpleasant to hear. Upon suddenly seeing such words, his mind went a bit blank. He didn’t know how to feel about it, so he just replied to Xiao Wen—

[Xiao Juexia: Wow, so many people.]

Xiao Wen received this not very serious reply, and didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry. 

[Xiao Wen: Juexia, you really know nothing about popularity.]

Pei Tingsong, who had completed his second round of moving into the dorms, also received Xiao Wen’s WeChat message, but the Internet addicted teenager had already opened his Weibo on his way back to the company long before he received those messages. Their popularity ranking was still high and trending, and for the first time, all six members of K were on the Hot Search list. 

[@Kaleido, let’s get explosively popular ba: When I was lurking in the livestream last night, I was shrieking so much that my next door neighbor called the police! Here’s a summary of the fluff moments for everyone: The sweater Xiao Pei was wearing was Juexia’s, when they sat together, Xiao Pei even put his hand on Juexia’s waist, and we don’t even have to mention the candy wrapper kiss. The biggest piece of explosive news from last night is that they were locked up in the closet together for five minutes after losing that game! Isn’t that awesome?! Start shipping it for me!]

[@ Does Weibo have 1: I really didn’t expect it to be so awesome before clicking into it. The moment the candy wrapper fell, I sucked in a breath, but who could have thought that he would actually save it and start kissing him….]

[@ Don’t love me, there’s no result: This already isn’t me messing with a CP but the CP messing with me ah! Isn’t it enough that I’m shipping it?!]

[@Sansan is my little baby: Fuck! This was a real kiss ah, the candy wrapper was pretty much not even there, okay! It’s pretty much @ing me to ship the CP! Look at your junior company brothers!!!]

Pei Tingsong looked at the profile picture of the above poster. Huh, it was really clever, this was a fan of their senior brother group. 

[@Is TingJue doing fanservice today: Fucking hell, Pei Tingsong, you’re only 19 years old ah, how can you be so smooth!? When Gege was held down and kissed by him, my wolf blood started boiling up!]

Pei Tingsong carefully recalled his actions from that time…

Did that count as holding him down and kissing him?

[@Just a face dog, what about it: K’s face is so quiet ah lololol. I have seen them perform on stage before, and he has always had that kind of iceberg face, but how can he look so obedient and blank during this game hahahaha]

That was true; this guy was like a different person on the stage, but after getting off the stage, he wouldn’t even say a word. 

[@Did you read a book today: Big fan, I saw their answer about their fan name on another Weibo post, it was really conscientious. It didn’t feel like a group just going through the motions with their fans.]

[@Teacher Fang is as beautiful as a flower replying to @Did you read a book today: Although K is messy, it has never just gone through the motions with its fans. Everyone is very good, and their professional ability is strong and lovely.]

[@Sweet pepper little cutie: Fuck, this kind of game, I remember that 7L has also played this game ah, and a lot of other groups have played this game as well, but the most exciting thing that happened there was just that the candy wrapper fell and two people ended up accidentally kissing. I didn’t expect such a wonderful second try! PTS is really capable, what kind of alpha move is directly holding the back of Gege’s neck to hold him still?? ]

[@The world is hard: This group actually looks pretty good eh, and this is my first time seeing them, but the main face and maknae’s faces are just yjjc. I just saw someone say that the maknae is alpha, but the appearance of the main face is a little like an alpha who deliberately pretends to be a cold beta. He is really super alpha when on-stage, the type that holds no one in high regard. On-stage, he’s the cool, salty ace, while offstage, he’s forcefully kissed into confusion by the group bully maknae—it’s an immortal doujinshi!]

[@Watermelon is too much like a pig replying to @The world is hard: I think Fang Juexia is an omega pretending to be a beta! He looks like an iceberg beauty but he is actually a clever, gentle, and beautiful baby!]

[@Empty Nest Girl replying to @ Watermelon is too much like a pig: You guys are actually discussing ABO designations so seriously hahahaha. If it’s like this, I’m standing for alpha-beta; I think Fang Juexia is a beta with very weak pheromones!]

What are pheromones? Wasn’t Omega a popular watch brand?

Everyone’s discussion gradually began to enter the blind areas of Pei Tingsong’s knowledge.  

[@ Happy fat house little darlings: This candy wrapper kiss must be poisonous, I can’t get out….]

[@Six men’s cross talk group: In fact, K’s appearance and strength are all especially strong. From writing lyrics to music composition to choreography, these are all pretty much arranged by the members of the group themselves. Everyone can go find out~  Xiao Pei’s rapping ability is basically at the level of an underground rapper, and I’m willing to declare he could beat up the rap parts of other boy bands. Although Juexia is the main dancer, his vocals are also extremely excellent, and he is a complete voice rogue! The other members also have their own special characteristics, you absolutely won’t go faceblind! Everybody go seeeeee our little K ba! Becoming part of our little K is a win-win situation!]

Although Pei Tingsong had always insisted that he didn’t regard being an idol as a career, and that sooner or later he would leave Kaleido to become a serious hip-hop artist, when he saw these fans conscientiously introducing their good points to others, his heart was still moved by it. After entering the company’s building, he was just about to get out of the elevator when his cellphone vibrated. It was a screenshot of a chat log Xiao Wen had with Juexia, which he had sent to Pei Tingsong. 

[Xiao Wen: I’m here to supervise your fanservice! Juexia is slacking off a bit here, so President Pei, you have to start fighting for it!]

[Little Tyrant: Nope.]

After playing it cool with Xiao Wen, Pei Tingsong couldn’t help opening the screenshot of the chat log he had just received.

“What tone is this ah,” He unconsciously took on Fang Juexia’s voice as he complained, “Wow, so many people… What kind of perfunctory words are these? How can you look down on forming a CP with me?”

Pei Tingsong had always been a person who, if instructed by others to go East, would plant himself in the West. Fang Juexia was a thorn in his side; there was no harm caused by seeing this perfunctory reply of his, but it just stuck in his heart and made him unhappy. 

As he walked to the practice room, he opened up his chat with Fang Juexia and edited his message to him— 

[Kaleido Pei Tingsong: The company wants us to do Weibo fanservice.]

Fang Juexia actually replied back very fast this time, which made Pei Tingsong feel more relaxed.

But as soon as he opened it—

[Just a pretty face: Really? I didn’t get a notice.]

Notice??? His mood took a sharp turn.

Pei Tingsong held his cellphone with both hands, lowered his head, and started replying back in an angry manner, not bothering to look forward anymore. 

He originally wanted to write— [Are you suggesting the company write out a script for you to follow step by step?]— but he kept feeling like something was off about this response, so he deleted it word by word. 

I am the notice— Pei Tingsong nodded in his heart. Yes, acting like a cool guy was more consistent with his style. 

While typing these words quickly, the absent-minded Pei Tingsong accidentally bumped into someone. He reflexively said sorry, but then when he looked up, as luck would have it, he saw that he had just bumped into that heartless Fang Juexia. The other party was wearing a thin white shirt while holding his coat in his hand, and his cheeks were red. One look and it was obvious that he had just come out of the practice room again. 

Under the dual pressures of bumping into him and his own shock at this encounter, Pei Tingsong clicked on send and sent the message without even knowing about it. Meanwhile, Fang Juexia’s cellphone vibrated at that very moment. 

Fang Juexia saw that Pei Tingsong’s eyes were on guard and contained some doubts, so he simply replied, “It’s okay.” He lowered his head and took his phone out of his pocket to unlock it. Pei Tingsong went around him and was prepared to leave when another person appeared at the end of the corridor and called out to him. It was Cheng Qiang.

“Hey, perfect, you two are here. I have something to tell you guys.”

Pei Tingsong frowned, and while pulling the zipper of his coat up and down, asked, “What is it now?”

Cheng Qiang shrugged and replied, “Remember the inside pages of the magazine Juexia was supposed to do, but someone else stole from us? This time, you guys have been invited to shoot a two person cover. They say it’s an upgrade, and it also makes up for the missed cooperation opportunities from before.”

Pei Tingsong straightforwardly rolled his eyes. Although he didn’t get along with Fang Juexia, following this kind of behavior of going where the wind was blowing was really disgusting. “They really can talk, back when they pushed Fang Juexia out, they weren’t this nice. I’m not doing it.”

“Hey, they have taken the initiative to upgrade us to the cover. What’s funny is that the group that stole the original job from us is very dissatisfied with the invite for the cover shoot that we’ve gotten, and so, they are all clamoring to withdraw from the photoshoot for the inner pages. Who knew that the people on the magazine’s side would actually agree, saying, ‘You guys can quit ba.’ Is that funny or what, guys. This circle is just so cruel; only those who are popular have the right to speak.”

Pei Tingsong hissed, but when he turned his head, he realized that Fang Juexia wasn’t really paying attention to this matter that was directly related to him. It really was the situation where the emperor wasn’t anxious, but his eunuchs were anxious. As Fang Juexia put away his cellphone, his expression was a little strange, and he even raised his head to stare at him. 

“What are you looking at?” Pei Tingsong pretended to be fierce. 

Fang Juexia looked hesitant and embarrassed as he asked, “What you said…is it true?”

“What is true?” He didn’t understand what Fang Juexia was talking about. He frowned and said, “I’m not some lame liar.”

Fang Juexia blinked two times slowly, then let out a dull “oh”, and said, “Then that’s very good.” After he said that, he was called away by Cheng Qiang, who said that the composer was coming.

Pei Tingsong went to his own small rap writing practice room, took off his coat, and put it aside. Then he took out his cellphone, planning to open up his audio memos. However, as soon as he sat down, he thought back to Fang Juexia’s reaction just now. The more he thought about it, the stranger Fang Juexia’s expression and eyes seemed to him, but he couldn’t pinpoint why they were strange to him. 

Finally, half an hour later, Pei Tingsong opened up his WeChat chat box with Fang Juexia again, and then saw the message he had sent, in distinct, bright words—

[I am the gay.]
