The filming stopped, but the love didn’t. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtIe7aas8N
They walked off hand in hand. 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4V0Qum4FRb
The boss collapsed in tears—— 287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvLnh2pjC4
the CP felt more real than the script ever did.
287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsV0biaEDxh
The Hidden Moon and the Sea of Dawn started off unusually smoothly.
The crew was soft, pink, and glowing——287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjfYMspIaS
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.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuJT0PMVNo
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…287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOTy4mws2k
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.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UOPWtCFm5
His mind screamed one thing:287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3M7mJwGEb9
What about Xi-Yu and Yue-Yue…
Throughout the meeting, the manager remained calm as always.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wEBzCeWXt
The screenwriter kept circling back to one desperate question:287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpl9cEfV2v
“Can the bunny… still keep her memories?”
Meanwhile, in the corner, the art lead quietly shed tears for the props——287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Qzhl6AZAS
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.

287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLHVTgMyyR
The manager issued a notice to the cast:
Due to a sudden scheduling change, filming is on hold.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKChXbfYRoh
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——287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0KQ2fswVF
as if sensing a gaze, she looked up.
Their eyes met for a second.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhl07yrEWs
And then, they smiled.
Not the delicate, ambiguous kind reserved for scenes on camera——287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9u08vO8NGB
it was the kind of bond only shared by people287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJeQ6ac6lT
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.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡph9xaJpIVd
“Let’s go.”
The human didn’t ask where.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmVkqVkrba
She just stood up, casually handing over the bunny’s hat.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvpm8uBO0z
Nothing was said——287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9sjZ9fGXh
and yet, it felt like everything had been.
They headed for the exit, unhurried,287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYS1g1acAa
as if they were still inside the story——287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jJ53V8J3T
and somehow, already beyond it.
And just as they left the set,287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmXgxm5t8u
they held hands.
No one dared to remind them they were still on company grounds,287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfdLY61bUK
or that the cameras were still rolling——
Because to interrupt that moment felt almost sacrilegious.
This wasn’t a scene.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZe27frW57I
It wasn’t a press event.
It was that moment——287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ie7EIy75g
the one where two people, after working together for so long,287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FB42d24d2
finally get to draw close, and it makes perfect sense.
The director watched the footage and whispered,287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOabwFd9TI
“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:287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWyEUiQkkF
Soft blush base. Warm undertone. Sweet, but not syrupy.
And the boss?287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Y7dco2TYw
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.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5Qc9fbaVi
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,287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeVsb6tQbd
but now his brain was auto-generating OTP hashtags and imagining poster fonts:
Liu Xiyu × Yun Cangyue287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4tk6IZpMq
——“Even if the world resets a hundred times, I’ll find you every time.”
Pink subtitles floated across his mind.287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJlf5Y0QF0
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?287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1aw4D4YZiR
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,287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrkBoCIzrN
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,287Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjFcVf0NpY
“Is he… okay?”
The manager glanced over, deadpan.
“He’s just converting emotions into budget. Let him cry.”
