As the “golden melon” (most shippable member) of the girl group Sweet Day, Qi Ke had countless CPs within the group, yet her relationship with the captain, Song Yushi, was merely average, with no sense of a couple’s chemistry.
The three hundred CP fans across the entire internet were taunted daily: For such a hard-to-ship CP, are everyone’s teeth still okay?
The CP fans were Zen about it: We’ve said it’s a lost cause; ask again and you’re just forcing it.
A troublemaker even started a side account named: Have Qi Ke and Song Yushi gotten to know each other today?
Three years later, the girl group disbanded, and Qi Ke and Song Yushi each went their separate, beautiful ways, continuing to be unfamiliar with each other.
Suddenly one day, a dedicated shipper from within the fandom said: Wait, I think I’m getting the chemistry of the “Qi Yu” CP.
And so, the sweet moments between Qi Ke and Song Yushi were dug up one by one.
Qi Ke’s ring was a gift from Song Yushi.
Qi Ke and Song Yushi shared a wardrobe, with countless matching items.
During Sweet Day’s second tour, when Qi Ke mentioned the person who accompanied her through her most unknown days, she looked towards Song Yushi.
In the final episode of the third season of the Sweet Day group variety show, the video of Song Yushi’s solo dance was filmed by Qi Ke. When Qi Ke voted for the most beautiful member in the group, she chose Song Yushi.
Netizens: If the next season of the romance variety show doesn’t have them, I’m not watching. Get them out here to do a business pairing, quick!
With netizens shipping them like crazy, the company couldn’t sit still either. They found the two and proposed a strategy to market them as a CP.
Song Yushi: …But we’ve already broken up.
Company: !!!
Qi Ke: How can I act in a business CP with my ex-girlfriend in a way that I get into character without letting her see that I still like her? Urgent, waiting for answers online!
Half a year later.
@Have Qi Ke and Song Yushi gotten to know each other today: Thanks for asking. We’re dating.
