The filming stopped, but the love didn’t. 56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTG4A0MpnQ7
They walked off hand in hand. 56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVfENXbOva
The boss collapsed in tears—— 56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRUPcSF7ks
the CP felt more real than the script ever did.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMFxqCr69t
The Hidden Moon and the Sea of Dawn started off unusually smoothly.
The crew was soft, pink, and glowing——56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUzsyBrMIJ
even the hallway lights seemed deliberately set to be extra romantic.
The boss dropped by every day, lurking behind set pieces with a smile they thought no one noticed.
“…Is he hiding behind the curtain again?”
“Leave him alone. As long as that smile’s toothless, it’s still legal.”
No one spoiled his joy.56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDB5Dhtv6dR
He was the boss, after all.
Until one day, he walked into the meeting room with a face full of sorrow, looking utterly wrecked——
as if he’d just realized his OTP was doomed in canon.
“Wuuu…56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHXAymp4FY
My bunny… my OTP… might be out of commission for a while…”
“Our client… shoved in another script… and wants it shot now…”
“I hate my own weakness.” The tears were heartbreakingly sincere.
The director looked physically pained.
But the meeting had to go on.
The director opened the meeting with a half-collapsed posture and the air of a man in mourning.56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8NnjYqNU8
His mind screamed one thing:56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4g4cRUY2Q
What about Xi-Yu and Yue-Yue…
Throughout the meeting, the manager remained calm as always.56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvx5stP18KC
The screenwriter kept circling back to one desperate question:56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbp9b0NONa
“Can the bunny… still keep her memories?”
Meanwhile, in the corner, the art lead quietly shed tears for the props——56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciUL6w3wTt
the kind of silent breakdown only budget cuts and last-minute changes could bring.
By the end, no one had died.
But their souls had been thoroughly slaughtered.
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58IXilVP6W
56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDw44HavcVe
The manager issued a notice to the cast:
Due to a sudden scheduling change, filming is on hold.56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SmMgdv91m
The bunny and the human are granted a paid vacation. Together.
No one said a word.
The bunny glanced at the human.
The human was replying to a message, but her fingers paused——56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmP9ebob0M
as if sensing a gaze, she looked up.
Their eyes met for a second.56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuGKerM0Ac
And then, they smiled.
Not the delicate, ambiguous kind reserved for scenes on camera——56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXa96RFH6N
it was the kind of bond only shared by people56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1FwMsqGaW
who’ve spent too many nights running lines beneath tired rehearsal lights at 4 a.m.
The bunny rose to her feet and patted the human’s arm.56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsY8rNwytf
“Let’s go.”
The human didn’t ask where.56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8MhAOmHS9
She just stood up, casually handing over the bunny’s hat.56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMBpQL6BTp
Nothing was said——56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwS8d1xmG50
and yet, it felt like everything had been.
They headed for the exit, unhurried,56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fOldXbEZX
as if they were still inside the story——56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbe74189xD
and somehow, already beyond it.
And just as they left the set,56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKMce1K8TQ
they held hands.
No one dared to remind them they were still on company grounds,56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF41RoPAW5A
or that the cameras were still rolling——
Because to interrupt that moment felt almost sacrilegious.
This wasn’t a scene.56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLPKVj3JFg
It wasn’t a press event.
It was that moment——56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvha8itz4a
the one where two people, after working together for so long,56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVHFuHk5MO
finally get to draw close, and it makes perfect sense.
The director watched the footage and whispered,56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0DdhH5mdr
“Don’t write this into the official script yet. I want to keep it for myself.”
“I’ll save the raw take. Triple backup.”
“I’ve already imagined ten different tragic endings in my head.”
The art lead said nothing, just flipped open a color notebook and made a note:
Colors for sunlight side-by-side shots:56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdCFj9N4qH
Soft blush base. Warm undertone. Sweet, but not syrupy.
And the boss?56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBYRbQA8kM
He looked at the screen like he’d been dragged into a romance MV with no way out.
His eyes were locked on their interlaced fingers——
They were holding hands.
For real.
No stage direction. No planned rehearsal.56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4vp6o8mVJ
Just something so natural, it felt like they’d done it a hundred times before.
He’d only meant to stop by and say goodbye,56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPQUqMjarF
but now his brain was auto-generating OTP hashtags and imagining poster fonts:
Liu Xiyu × Yun Cangyue56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCIozy5V4S
——“Even if the world resets a hundred times, I’ll find you every time.”
Pink subtitles floated across his mind.56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmnFKgQL5P
Background music swelled——yes, that was the season two ending theme.
He’d even mentally edited their future late-night texting scenes post-move-out.
Bunny: Still awake?56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8bdrQ7ZVZ
Xi-Yu: Don’t want to sleep. Thinking of you.
Clutching his OTP notebook, he trembled like a wind-tossed leaf.
“This is fate… this has to be fate…”
He wasn’t just shipping it anymore.
He was getting shipped——dragged and devoured whole by this couple,56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXpSSI9Ir0
until he couldn’t tell if he was writing the story, or the story was writing him.
A staff member walked past, whispered to the manager,56Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqVQqHp7Yf
“Is he… okay?”
The manager glanced over, deadpan.
“He’s just converting emotions into budget. Let him cry.”
