Jian Yao is a streamer who never shows his face. However, after losing a bet with his viewers, he’s forced to reveal his face on stream, skyrocketing his popularity overnight.
Even his favorite esports player—Wen Zhe!
—appears in his stream because of that video.
[Wen Zhe’s fans: That’s definitely not our Zhe! Zhe is an unattainable flower on a high peak; he’d never get involved in this sort of thing.]
[AFG.Wzhe gifted streamer Jyao 10 Supreme Trophies worth a total of 18,888!]
The announcement pops up, and the entire chat falls silent, leaving only Jian Yao to thank him for the gifts.
From that day on, their fans seem to merge like sticky rice cakes, displaying epic-level solidarity, charging forward together whenever either side faces trouble!
But then, during a stream one day:
[YAO, why did you want to join AFG?]
Jian Yao: Because of a promise I made with a senior.
[Zhe’s fans: Crying… it wasn’t because of Wen Zhe after all.]
[Zhe, why did you choose to join AFG back then?]
Wen Zhe: Because a junior liked it.
[YAO’s fans: So Zhe already has someone in his heart!]
Because of this, their fanbases split apart again. Little do they know, the two are at the club one day, looking at old photos together:
“So, this is what you look like with your bangs covering your face…” Jian Yao drags out his words, his gaze fixed intently on Wen Zhe. “Senior.”
“Only recognizing me now is a bit late, isn’t it?” Wen Zhe doesn’t avoid his gaze, raising a hand to rest on Jian Yao’s head. “So, this is what your face looks like without the mask, Junior?”
–
But not long after, a series of events leads to Wen Zhe becoming a free agent, trending on social media.
Just when everyone in the circle thinks Wen Zhe is about to retire, Wen Zhe posts a screenshot of a chat with Jian Yao online.
The public’s sharp eyes immediately notice three things:
First, the post’s content: [Joining a team with financial backing.]
Second, the contact’s nickname: [Yao Bao]
Third, the illogical chat history.
[Yao Bao: Come to my team. I’ll spend my entire fortune to recruit you!]
[Wzhe: No need. I’ll hand over my bank card. I’m bringing my own betrothal gifts.]
Zhe’s fans: Huh??
Yao’s fans: Ah!!
CP fans: ZheYao Shining is real!!

1.
During Jian Yao and Wen Zhe’s first meeting
“Did you forget?”
“Forget what?”
“When talking to me, you need to look into my eyes.”
During Jian Yao and Wen Zhe’s second meeting
“Do you remember to look at me when speaking this time?”
Jian Yao finally realizes that Wen Zhe seems to care a lot about his gaze…
For Wen Zhe, he likes looking into his pupils,
likes those brief moments that belong only to him.

“Wen Zhe, make a comeback. With me.”
“Okay.”
Wen Zhe agreed without hesitation. From then on, the two fought side by side and were hailed by the league as the “strongest duo.”
In every interview afterward, Wen Zhe would always add Jian Yao’s name before his own.
Jian Yao asked in confusion, “Why do you always include my name?”
He thought Wen Zhe would tell him, but Wen Zhe simply ruffled his hair and said, “Guess.”
Perhaps Wen Zhe had already given Jian Yao the answer long ago.
But Jian Yao had forgotten that not long before, he had asked a similar question.
“Why is your name introduced first, and the team’s name after?”
“Because I myself am more important than anything else.”
