No, you don’t have to. Addicted main couple doesn’t feature at all. This is the story of the second couple, Yang Meng and You Xi, the two bickering classmates of Gu Hai and Bai Luo Ying.

Surprise was SCoY and The Sign was in it but he wasn’t Kai. He was Arlo’s “friend” who always tempted him in the casino.

I saw a video where it said they kept in touch over the years.

Yes, it’s an adaptation of the spin-off novel, Story of MengQiqi.

Yes, it does. This is an adaptation of the spin-off novel of You Qi and Yang Meng called Story of Meng QiQi by the same author of Addicted novel, Chai Ji Dan. I’ve read the novel.

Yes. The original show was made 10 years ago and was cancelled by the C government and both actors could not interact with each other at all. So, there’s no hope at all for the original story to continue with the original leads. But from my understanding, the side actors still kept the friendship and now 10 years later, things have moved on since and now we are able to see the story of the side couple. I suspect like many of the recent Chinese BLs, the production/distributing company is not Chinese owned.

Not in the original novel. There’s a spin-off novel about them two months after the main couple gets married. The novel is called The story of Meng Qi Qi. Spin-off means something that is comes after and is related to a popular show.

Yes, the leads are the original side couple from Addicted in 2016. There is actually spin-off novel about them two months after the main couple gets married. The novel is called The story of Meng Qi Qi but how much this show will follow the novel is yet to be seen.

According to the Matchbox website (which is the parent company of Strongberry), this will be eight episodes and each episode is 8 minutes). Total runtime is 70 minutes. But then I also saw that it says 12 episodes on another page of the website so 🤷🏻‍♀️

It’s not a BL and they play brothers.

Try Gaga or iQIYI. It’s geoblocked on YT for me too but I found it on the two platforms.

Try Gaga or iQIYI. I found it available to me there. It’s due to geoblock and I have the same issue.

This is also available on Gaga and iQIYI if it’s not on YT for you.

It will be on Gaga!

He’s also a supporting actor in another BL, City of Stars.

I totally agree. I was also impressed with Atom’s acting as well as Jet’s. The fact that Atom’s character was so annoying and frustrating shows that Atom was really convincing. It’s really different from his character in Bake Me where he was all jokey. Hats to the both of them. Tjey carried the show very well.

I’m curious how was it obvious? I only got it in episode 11. You do a spoiler.

Tiana has explained it well. The clue was in the end of episode 11 when Sunshine and Q told each other “You’re my future and I’m your past.”

He is but then how many of us can say we are truly mature when it comes to relationships and feelings?

I had similar thoughts but not so much a villian. It’s just that he’s sly and tries to win the girl in a way that puts him in a better light.
