Originally, Rong Jin was spending Qixi Festival alone at home with their child, attending an advanced class, and feeling a strong sense of crisis. He even considered signing up for shooting classes himself.
Chang Haoqing, who had witnessed the entire scene, looked at the overly hardcore “heart” picture on Rong Jin’s phone and exclaimed, “The little prince is impressive… Hey, do you think this is a warning? Like, if you dare cheat, this will be your fate?”
Rong Jin glanced at him, seriously pondered for a moment, and then dismissed the thought. Considering his boyfriend’s level of thinking, there was no way he could be on the same level as Chang Haoqing.
With that, Rong Jin lifted his two sons off his lap, stood up, and walked away.
Chang Haoqing, still engrossed in the gossip, was startled by Rong Jin’s reaction and quickly called out, “Where are you going?”
Rong Jin replied, “I’m going to try kicking a board into a heart shape.”
Chang Haoqing: “…”
The way these two handle their relationship is terrifying!
Before he could process it fully, Rong Jin had already left. Realizing the potential consequences, Chang Haoqing decided he had to stop Rong Jin. It wouldn’t be fun if the little prince returned from military training, all energized, only to find Rong Jin at home with a broken leg!
After sending the photo, Chi Feiran didn’t message Rong Jin again. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, but his classmates moved too fast.
These people were more enthusiastic about watching the excitement than they were during training. They had been complaining earlier, but now they were running over in high spirits. Just after Chi Feiran sent the message to his boyfriend, a group of people shouting “Brother Chi” rushed over.
Chi Feiran hurriedly closed WeChat and left his phone on the photo interface he had just taken.
Some of the onlookers had already seen what Chi Feiran was up to, and the reactions were immediate and varied.
“Holy crap! This is possible?”
“Am I seeing things?”
“Amazing!”
Feeling a bit guilty, Chi Feiran explained before they could ask, “It’s Qixi today, so I made some fan service.”
Forgive him; he couldn’t think of a better excuse. He couldn’t say it was for his boyfriend, nor could he say it was for a girlfriend. This was the best he could come up with.
Well, Rong Jin was his fan, at least a CP fan!
Everyone: “…”
Xia Wen felt that his Qixi selfie was ridiculously weak in comparison. Xiang Fei and Ding Jie, both online influencers, felt their Qixi giveaways on Weibo were utterly unimpressive!
The others just expressed that they couldn’t replicate it and would just watch.
Since Chi Feiran had claimed it was fan service, he had no choice but to post it on Weibo.

His fans, who had been hoping for some Qixi content from him, would be thrilled with a selfie or some fan service. No boyfriend, but having an idol was great!
After receiving the special notification and opening Chi Feiran’s latest Weibo post…
Hmm… Huh? What is this?!
While other celebrities were posting selfies, sharing their love stories, or joking about being single, their idol…
“Oh my gosh… is this real bullet holes?”
“??? Is this an actual shooting result, or a staged photo?”
“Damn, I didn’t see what it was at first, but now I’m so shocked I dropped my snack!”
“Never seen such a unique heart…”
Chi Feiran’s post quickly stood out amidst the Qixi buzz filled with love declarations and single dog jokes.
In a sea of “XX Proposal,” “XX Confession,” and “Qixi Gifts,” Chi Feiran’s name stood out with “The Most Hardcore Heart Ever,” drawing a lot of clicks.
Many people, initially skeptical, clicked to see just how hardcore it could be, only to be proven wrong…
Some doubted: “Must be staged! Can someone really get this good at shooting during military training? I don’t believe he did it, even if he posted it.”
“You think you’re smart? There were so many witnesses! Students from A City Film Academy saw it! How could it be fake?”
“Guys, he grew up abroad. While we have strict gun control, it’s legal there! Can’t be the same as us!”
“Honestly, it’s a bit scary. Don’t you think Chi Feiran is too impressive? I heard he could even spar with the military training instructor and hold his ground. That’s incredible!”
“Not just that! During ‘Perfect Holiday,’ he was amazing at archery! His art exam had Tai Chi sword! And in an advertisement, he did dressage!”
“Summing up: speaks over ten languages, can ride horses, his equestrian skills are professionally rated, knows martial arts, swordsmanship, archery, and shooting. Writes his own songs, and is handsome and young! What kind of Mary Sue setup is this?”
“I’ll add: supposedly good at games too! He even carried his roommates in games!”
“Let’s stay rational. Celebrities often get exaggerated praise. They do a few math problems or recite a few high school poems and claim to be academic idols. All those personas eventually collapse. Let’s see how long Chi Feiran can maintain this big persona.”
Marketing accounts quickly jumped on the trend, compiling “Omnipotent Chi Feiran” collections to ride the hot topic, which got shared rapidly.
Regardless of how many genuinely admired Chi Feiran or thought he was just pretending, this almost omnipotent persona drew a huge wave of fans.
For many people, idols exist to be worshiped. They love this perfect, all-powerful image, especially many young girls, the so-called “loli fans.” Just being handsome is already a huge draw, but being handsome, talented, and their peer? That’s practically god-like perfection!
Chi Feiran had no idea that his simple gesture of making a heart shape with his fingers would cause so much commotion. He didn’t realize how many die-hard, fierce fans he had gained from this.
But soon, Chi Feiran witnessed it firsthand.
The issue started with Xia Wen. This kid was determined to change his fans’ impression of Chi Feiran, wanting them to know that they were on good terms. So, he frequently posted about Chi Feiran on his Weibo, sharing photos and candid shots from their dorm, using phrases like “Today, Brother Chi helped me out!” and “Brother Chi is awesome, saved me from trouble!”
However, his eagerness to show their friendship was completely misinterpreted by his fans.
“Why is Chi Feiran always playing games with Wen Wen! Annoying!”
“Ha, forget about the games. Wen Wen has been posting about Chi Feiran every day, while Chi Feiran’s side is dead silent. Poor kid doesn’t even realize he’s being used.”
“Haha, Chi Feiran interacts most frequently with Rong Jin. Who cares about Wen Wen? It’s obvious.”
“All this hype every day. Our Wen Wen knows kung fu too, but does he go around challenging the instructor? Watching him is so frustrating.”
Initially, there was some friction between Xia Wen and Chi Feiran’s fans on Xia Wen’s Weibo, but this time it exploded into full-blown conflict.
It’s well-known in fan circles that loli fans are fiercely powerful. They are young, impulsive, and when emotionally invested, they become unstoppable.
Previously, Xia Wen might have had higher national recognition than Chi Feiran, having been a child star. But he was just starting to transition into the “nation’s first love” role, while Chi Feiran debuted as an idol. Additionally, Xia Wen was in the TV industry, and despite both being celebrities, movie actors are considered more prestigious than TV actors. With the film “Xia Gu” still in theaters, Chi Feiran’s popularity was visibly skyrocketing, giving his fans extra confidence in their arguments.
“Are you kidding? Who’s hyping whom? Chi Feiran’s trending index versus Xia Wen’s trending index – anyone with eyes can see the difference!”
“Ha, Xia Wen’s fans are a joke. Ever since the art exam results, they’ve been attacking Chi Feiran. Your idol couldn’t get first place, so you attack the one who did? Unbelievable.”
“Xia Wen’s fans are hilarious. Claiming Chi Feiran only interacts with Rong Jin? Did you miss all the other classmates’ Weibo posts he shared? When he reposted Xia Wen’s Weibo, what did you say? You told him not to piggyback on Xia Wen’s popularity. Now he doesn’t repost, and you complain. What do you want?”
“Laughing my head off. Your idol is probably desperate to cling to someone bigger, and you’re just holding him back!”
Xia Wen’s fans couldn’t take this lying down and fought back.
“Get lost! Our Wen Wen is pure! Not like your idol, shamelessly putting a gay label on himself for hype!”
“Clinging to someone bigger? Who’s bigger? Your so-called bigger star is still fawning over Rong Jin! Shamelessly acting high and mighty, I spit on you!”
“Chi Feiran’s kind of marketing is a cancer! He should be banned! Claiming he can beat the instructor, what a weakling, portraying such an image is an insult to soldiers!”
