In his final semester of college, Pei Yang prepares to debut as a celebrity. However, just before his debut, the agency drops him due to an overwhelming number of scandals. Taking pity on him, his manager arranges a last-resort job—a risqué male streamer. So, when viewers click into his livestream, they see Pei Yang in a maid outfit hosting a relationship advice show? "How do you know if your boyfriend wants to marry you? Get pregnant. Fake a pregnancy." "Can’t get pregnant because your husband has weak kidneys? Maybe you’re a beard." "Chance with your crush? Sure—tonight’s circus has a clown spot for you." Netizens find it absurd: *[A softcore streamer with a persona? Just selling himself.]* *[Even dramas aren’t this scripted.]* *[Meh, decent background noise.]* But soon: *Why am I kneeling to watch this stream...* "Streamer, you were right! He dumped me the second I mentioned pregnancy—seven years together, and I was just free labor!" "Karma’s a bitch! The closeted scammer got scammed—got an STD *and* a vasectomy, now sterile forever!" "Waaah, streamer, my crush has a crush—I’m the clown after all!" The internet erupts: *[Relatives setting me up say it’s for my ‘good’—but they’re just trading me as a favor!]* *[Three years together, and his 700k bridal gift was all counterfeit—he wanted my money *and* my life! AAAAAH!]* *[LOL, used to ignore him, now I study every frame!]* *[This is the online class college students need!]* The stream blows up. Pei Yang goes viral. — The #1 tipper has his own woes—ghosted in an online romance, he pays big for a call. When Pei Yang sees the distractingly handsome face, his heart blooms: *"Online love got you down? You just haven’t met me—why not swap, babe?"* The tipper smirks. Pei Yang sobs. Dammit! Who knew his ghosted ex was his #1 tipper?!
