Tonight, the entire internet is buzzing about their relationship. The Li Ming CP super topic has surged to number one, gaining hundreds of thousands of new fans, finally transforming from an obscure topic into a hot one.

Old posts about various distracting moments were brought to the top, and these speculations were confirmed by the parties involved: the cats and dogs talked, they really did talk!

The CP fans who used to secretly enjoy the sweet moments, silently protect each other, and even dare not sync their posts to Weibo have finally stood up.

They rushed to the comment section of the official announcement post in droves:

A photo of the pear blossoms in my heart!

Cats and dogs are the sweetest thing in the world: Waaaaah, they actually used cat and dog emojis, they must know about our super topic, right?

[Green Bean Forum]

[Urgent! Does anyone have the full video of Li Ming kissing someone with a tie?]

All I'm getting is the same picture, and the awards ceremony livestream keeps crashing. I want to see what happens next!

1L: Take a look at the super topic, there should be some.

2L: I want to see it too, but it's not in the supertopic, sob sob.

3L: Can someone at the scene give me some insider information? I just became a fan of this couple, they're so sweet together!

4L: Waiting, at the end of the year, a heterosexual couple has suddenly appeared on the Chinese online forum. How come I didn't notice them before?

5L: LOL, Li Ming's cover-up is even more thorough than the actual person's.

6L: i梨铭 shared her experience, saying that it's precisely because they're so meticulous that they're so vigilant, while we feel calm and at ease.

7L: Just passing by and looking up. It's not cold now, so I'm just hoping to soak up some of my shipping luck.

10L posted a video: On site

In the video, Luo Mingxiu is suddenly kissed, and after a second of stunned silence, he raises his trophy to block the camera.

11L: What does blocking mean?

12L: Ugh, why won't Luo Mingxiu let us see this? He's so stingy! Are there any other camera angles?

17L posted a video: I have another angle

This is a side shot with high resolution. Since Shen Li's back is to the camera, her expression cannot be seen, but it is clear that Luo Mingxiu smiled secretly after being kissed, and returned the kiss by cupping Shen Li's face with one hand.

18L: Shocking, they kissed for three minutes before letting go.

19L: This is truly the best viewing spot, like being right next to the stage.

20L: It's getting hot just looking at it.

21L: Ahhhh, Xiao Luo has such high attack and low defense, he kissed so fiercely and his ears turned so red, hahaha!

23L: Thank you for the treat, I enjoyed it!

30L: Breaking news! Rumors circulating online suggest that Luo Mingxiu had a long-standing crush on Shen Li, and it's true!

31L: How exciting! I've always believed they'd been in talks for a while. The information released by those marketing accounts was definitely orchestrated by their team.

32L: No, there's something even more explosive. Someone discovered that Luo Mingxiu's alternate account is a master editor in Shen Li's fan circle. The Weibo account was registered seven years ago, so they must have known each other since high school.

33L: How did you know that? Could you please tell me?

34L: The alternate account is @小狗吃梨 (Little Dog Eating Pear). For a detailed exposé, please refer to this post by @meme.

35L: Wow, this ID feels a bit... Seriously, I'm going to go eat some melon seeds now.

[A newly crowned Best Actor's alleged alternate account has been a long-time fan of his wife!?]

The main package is a CPF that restores the boot-up experience of getting into the Pear Ming fandom.

Last year, when their kissing scene went viral, I followed him but hadn't seen any of his videos. Now that it's officially announced, I've seen many comments saying his voice sounds a lot like Luo Mingxiu's.

I went to a certain website and watched all his videos, which were all analyses of Shen Li's acting skills. The voice really sounds similar. Some people in the comments section had doubts in the early days, but Luo Mingxiu wasn't popular at that time, so the few people who recognized it wouldn't have attracted attention.

Now he's becoming more and more famous, and his voice is becoming more and more familiar. He even dubs all his own performances. You can hear it for yourself; it's really obvious.

Looking at his recent re-enactment of the interview where he praised Shen Li's acting skills, here's a link at the top. It's almost identical to what he said to Shen Li before the puppy ate the pear.

1L: Ahhh, I watched the video, it really is Luo Mingxiu, right? He looks so much like him!

2L: Scrolling down to the bottom of Weibo, it's all either Shen Li edits or Shen Li data and voting-related posts. I love him so much, I'm dying to cry.

3L: Am I the only one who noticed that this account was registered seven years ago? Back then, Luo Mingxiu was only in high school? Or even a freshman in college? Could it really be like what the gossip bloggers are saying, that he's been plotting against Shen Li for a long time?

4L: Stop talking, I'm going to get dizzy from all the drugs.

5L: Who would have thought that the Best Actor is also an editor, someone involved in the fan community?

6L: Please @骆铭修 stay away from your fans' lives.

7L: I can't take it anymore.

8L: Seriously, you guys really believe that? What if that account really is a fan of Shen Li's boyfriend? Fans of actresses are usually very loyal, otherwise why would they use a black profile picture? Anyway, unless Luo Mingxiu admits it, I don't believe it.

10L: @Luo Mingxiu: You'd better admit it

Then a bunch of people followed suit and commented on Luo Mingxiu: Come out and admit it!

The public loves entertainment gossip, and soon the hashtag #LuoMingxiuPuppyEatingPear# became a trending topic.

Puppy Eating Pear V: Stop digging, I'm Luo Mingxiu.

In the villa's bedroom, on the large bed, Shen Li let out a heavy sigh after posting on Weibo.

"What are you doing?" A pair of hands quietly wrapped around her from behind. Luo Mingxiu rested his chin on Shen Li's shoulder and immediately noticed the interface she hadn't had time to close.

Caught red-handed, Shen Li turned around and handed the phone back to him: "You didn't receive Liang Jin's call while you were showering, and he told me that netizens were digging into the matter, and the trending topic wouldn't go down. Your alternate account doesn't have any dark history; it just proves that you've liked me for a long time. Admitting it won't do us any harm."

"Moreover, because we kept it so well secret beforehand, when we suddenly made the official announcement, some media outlets didn't believe us and were skeptical of us. They even spread rumors that you got the position through underhanded means, which made me furious. They have no idea what we're talking about."

"What? You're not happy about it!" Seeing that Luo Mingxiu didn't speak, Shen Li snorted, "Didn't you want to announce your feelings to the world before? I helped you admit it, and now you feel ashamed?"

“No,” Luo Mingxiu lowered his eyes, “I was too naive before. Now I know you love me very much, and I won’t feel so insecure anymore.”

A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Li's eyes as she cupped his face and looked him over from left to right: "Is this still my boyfriend? After a year of filming abroad, he's matured quite a bit."

“It was because of filming abroad and encountering some dangers that I came to understand a lot of things,” Luo Mingxiu blushed and lowered his head. “I don’t care about any rumors about me outside. Nothing is more important than you. All I need is to live a good life with you.”

Shen Li looked up at his forehead; the danger was related to that scar.

While filming on the island, the crew encountered local thugs. During the fight, Luo Mingxiu was cut by a knife. Fortunately, it wasn't serious, and he was taken to the hospital for stitches and to stop the bleeding, receiving timely treatment.

She gently touched his scar, her eyes filled with heartache.

"Speaking of this, I still want to scold you. You didn't let me know you were safe immediately after something so dangerous happened."

Luo Mingxiu: "I'm innocent! I missed you so much, how could I not want to talk to you on the phone? The situation was urgent at the time, and I left my phone on set. I borrowed a doctor's phone to call you, but you didn't answer. Later, when I got back to the island, there was no signal, so I could only wait until I got back to tell you the details."

"When?" Shen Li took out her phone and checked the missed calls. Sure enough, she saw a string of unfamiliar numbers.

“This one,” Luo Mingxiu pointed out, “was intercepted by foreign entities.”

Shen Li: "Okay, I forgive you."

"Hehe, thank you, wife." Luo Mingxiu hugged her.

"Who is you... ah." Shen Li cried out in surprise as his lips bit her collarbone.

"Wife." Luo Mingxiu kept talking until he saw Shen Li shyly shrink into the quilt before he stopped.

The two of them, covered by blankets, rolled around on the bed, laughing and playing around for a while.

"Stop, stop..." Shen Li couldn't keep up with the energy and surrendered first. "I'm tired, I'm going to sleep."

“I’m really happy today,” Luo Mingxiu stopped and hugged her. “I won Best Actor for my first film. Thanks to you, thank you.”

Shen Li: "Why thank me? Thank yourself. Acting skills are objective; I have no power to influence the judges."

“But the time you won the Magnolia Award, you gave me a lucky kiss. I don’t care, you’re my lucky star.” Luo Mingxiu lowered his head and began to sniff her chest.

"Okay, okay, my lucky kiss worked," Shen Li pushed his head away, "Don't rub it, it tickles."

“If even a kiss is so powerful,” Luo Mingxiu’s voice suddenly became a little hoarse as he looked at her, “of course, we should do more lucky things.”

"What?" Shen Li was stunned for a moment, then kissed him.

"Not enough." Luo Mingxiu pulled the blanket up, and a voice came from beside him: "Make it."

...

As dawn broke, a soft light filled the room. The two people on the bed had their hands clasped together, wrapped in the same blanket, and the only sound in the air was their soft breathing.

"Hmm..." Shen Li woke up first, her back and legs aching, her mind was limp. She opened her eyes and a handsome face was right in front of her.

Light swept across his face, gradually revealing his eyelashes, nose, and mouth, making his features clearer. The sleeping Luo Mingxiu, with his strong features softened, looked like he was in a painting. Shen Li was engrossed in watching when his eyes stirred and opened.

The first thing Luo Mingxiu saw when he woke up was her. A comfortable smile appeared on his lips. He reached out and pulled her closer to him, rubbing his chin against her hair.

"Gurgle, gurgle—" A considerable commotion came from Shen Li's stomach.

Luo Mingxiu chuckled and looked down at her: "Hungry?"

"What do you think?" she rolled her eyes. "Last night was physically demanding."

"Then I'll go make breakfast."

“Let’s eat at the company,” Shen Li said, pulling Luo Mingxiu out of bed. Her tone was somewhat resentful. “It’s already ten o’clock. We’ll miss the filming.”

As soon as the results came out yesterday, V Family Magazine called Cheng Qingqing, wanting to do a double feature on the Best Actor and Best Actress.

After getting dressed, the two went into the bathroom. They had replaced the toothbrush cups they had given Luo Mingxiu when they moved, buying a blue one to match her pink one.

They brushed their teeth together in front of the mirror, squeezed face wash together, foamed each other's faces, and put foam on each other's noses.

As they played, the atmosphere became enchanting again.

Luo Mingxiu lowered his head and slowly approached.

They were already crazy enough last night, and Shen Li really couldn't take it anymore. She pushed him away and didn't let him succeed.

Resist the temptations of beauty, starting from the morning.

Fortunately, Luo Mingxiu didn't press the matter further. After washing his face, he tied his tie while watching her comb her hair attentively.

"Is that the same tie as yesterday?" Shen Li glanced at him sideways.

“Hmm,” Luo Mingxiu rubbed his hand, picked up one end of the tie, leaned down and kissed it, and smiled, “I’m going to treasure it. It’s worth it for life.”

"Nonsense." Shen Li laughed speechlessly, glanced at the time, quickly put down the comb, and changed her shoes.

The spacious room was filled with the hurried movements of the two.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry up!"

"Wait, let's have another good morning kiss."

"It's too late!"
