The Theory Of Queerbaiting

After the interview video of the “Sword of Heartlessness” crew was uploaded, online discussions emerged one after another.

In particular, the interview for You Xin, Duan Jiashu and Liu Yanhui were picked up by the melon eaters. 

【We sincerely invite you all to taste a delicious big triangle. The landlord has watched this video ten times】
Landlord: I’m addicted to CPs all year round. I basically know what it’s like to be addicted to real people CPs. Therefore, as soon as I saw that the interview for the protagonists of “Sword of Heartlessness” with You, Duan and Liu, I immediately realized that there must be a lot of stems to dig in this video. Sure enough, after watching it ten times, I still felt that I was still full of interest. Then I decided to have fun alone rather than all. I want to share a screenshot with you. Because there are too many details, the landlord may be a little slow. You can discuss it first.

【I love this kind of big love triangle! I love you, landlord!】
【The cast of “Heartlessness” is so strange, why is the male lead not interviewed together with the female lead?】
【The male and female lead were interviewed together.】
【The crew’s really good 23333, the male lead has three pairs, and the female lead has two, the CPs are divided 23333】
【I want to see Meteor, I want to eat some Meteor conntent!】
【Let me see what sweets JiaXin has recently. I haven’t seen JiaXin together for a long time since “Wacky Family” was broadcast!】
【Did they quarrel with each other in the last episode of “Wacky”? My friend told me that JiaXi was BE [crying] [crying]】
【They can’t BE that easily. It’s normal for young couples to quarrel. Duan laoshi also took home the kitten he and You Xin saved. The program team also broadcasted gag reels. Duan laoshi called the kitten “Duan Xiaoxing” in the program [doge]】
【The program team subtly changed “Duan Xiaoxin” into “Duan Xiaoxing” because of their lives. Ah-Shu is so terrible, he only thinks of Xin Xin’s love in his heart and doesn’t care about the program team’s lives.】

Landlord: I’m back. We’ve talked so much already~ OK, don’t talk much yet. We’ll officially open the conversation. [GIF] Firstly, before the interview, the three people had to position themselves. Duan Jiashu first stood to the far left, then he opened his mouth as if to say something. Pay attention to his mouth shape in the GIF. It should be to shout at You Xin to stand next to him, but before he said it, Liu Yanhui stood over first. Duan Jiashu and Liu Yanhui smiled at each other, and then when they turned their heads, they now have expressionless faces.

【My God, it’s already full of gunpowder at the beginning! What’s the matter? JiaXin is in love. Everyone knows this. But do you feel that Meteor is also in love? And Liu Yanhui came to visit You Xin, my God! It’s so intriguing!】
【Hahahahaha, You Xin has too many CPs. Really, hahahaha, what kind of TM is his fan grooup? Hahahahaha!】
【Didn’t any of you look at You Xin’s expression? When Duan and Liu were full of gunpowder, he didn’t notice it at all. Hahahahaha】
【You Xin must be pretending, he can not have points in his heart? Good bitchy little white lotus [vomit]】

【I think the landlord and upstairs comments over analyzed? They’re just standing there, why is there already so much drama…】

Landlord: in fact, I found that part after watching the video for the third time. The beef between Duan and Liu are really not obvious here, but the tit-for-tat afterward is very obvious. Listen to me carefully. [GIF] This is Duan Jiashu’s answer to the question about the plot. The content has nothing to do with their triangle, so I’ll just skip it. You can observe the reactions of the other two people in this scene. Liu Yanhui just smiled at the camera and basically concluded that he was not listening. You Xin listened very carefully, nodded and looked at Duan Jiashu with special attention.
【Wlc Wlc ibbxr ja Gejc ijbrtl’r fsfr. Ktfs jgf rb ibnfis. P gfjiis kjca ab mgs!!!】

【Rbk P kjca ab qea ws rbei lcab Tbe Wlc jcv tjnf j vbu yibbv ibnf agljcuif klat Gejc jcv Ole! Snfgsbcf rabq wf!】
【To be Duan, or to be Liu, that’s a question.】
【Wake up, You Xin doesn’t want it, and so do you [smile]】

Landlord: Here comes the good part! This landlord saw this scene first only to go back to the beginning. 【GIF】 it was the interview before Duan Jiashu. He suddenly cued You Xin and asked the other if he was right. The content doesn’t matter, but the key is that Duan Jiashu shouted “Xin Xin” when calling You Xin. The first small ‘high’ came, after You Xin was surprised when Duan Jiashu called him Xin Xin, then he froze in an instant. Then came the big ‘high’ of the segment, Duan Jiashu took the opportunity to cue You Xin, bypassed Liu Yanhui to stand next to You Xin, and put his hand on the other side. Liu Yanhui’s face immediately changed.

【JiaXin is locked, and I swallowed the key! Xin Xin’s expression is surprised with a trace of fear, he’s obviously guilty. He’s worried that his relationship with Duan laoshi has been discovered!】
【Duan Jiashu held You Xin and looked at Liu Yanhui. This is a demonstration! Duan laoshi is so cool!】
【How should I feel about Duan Jiashu’s special coquettish act of putting his hand on You Xin’s shoulder?】
【That must be because JiaXin already slept together!】
【slept + 1】
【slept + 10000】
【Meteor… how cruel [cry]】
【I was abused by Liu Yanhui’s expression. But he’s also a beauty. Why do I want to provoke the dog men JiaXin?】
【But our Meteor is childhood sweethears! [crying]】

Landlord: CP fans, don’t worry. The next scene is a textbook image of love rivals going against each other! [GIF] The reporter asked whether Duan Jiashu and You Xin had a particularly good relationship. Duan Jiashu replied that he and You Xin both sleep together in the variety show. Then the reporter asked Liu Yanhui the same question, Liu answered that he and You Xin had known each other for many years and lived together for three years, so they knew each other very well.
【JiaXin has slept together, and the God himself has sealed it! Sisters, stop talking, I’ll take off first!】
【I don’t care, our Meteor is still sweet! They lived together for three years, and our Meteor is SZD [tears]】
【Liu Yanhui’s answer is also very awesome, but he doesn’t feel as confident as Duan Jiashu. I don’t know why, Duan laoshi gave me the feeling that he really did sleep with You Xin.】
【Upstairs + 1! I feel that Duan is already with You, so in the face of Liu, the love rival will perform with particular confidence.】
【I’m going to die from laughter because of You Xin’s expression hahahahahaha, he now seems to have finally discovered that Duan and Liu were targeting each other. You Xin’s expression is so stiff ah, even his smile is soulless hahahahaha!】
【Fake laughing boy You Xin: I want to die on the spot. I can’t hold an evil role even in troubled times】
【Xin Xin is really a simple and unaffected little white lotus 2333333】

Landlord: [GIF] To be honest, this reporter is not a good one. He even asked You Xin who he has a better relationship between Duan and Liu. But You Xin’s answer was also very interesting. He directly said that it wasn’t, then joked and passed the question. The interview is basically over here. The landlord thinks the relationship between the three people is very subtle, but I can’t say which ship is actually Rio [doge]
【Landlord worked hard! Thank you for sharing screenshots!】
【In fact, You Xin said nothing, which is tantamount to favoring Duan laoshi. You Xin and Liu Yanhui have known each other for six years, while he and Duan Jiashu have known each other for a shorter period. If it’s really nothing, it’s a more normal answer for him to say that he has a better relationship with Liu Yanhui.】
【Yes, saying he is better with Duan hurts Liu’s heart. But it’s impossible to say he is better with Liu, because Duan laoshi is a boyfriend!】
【I’ve been confused since I got here. I was just messing around. Now why do I feel that JiaXin is true and more Rio?】
【I think Meteor is also Rio. It’s Liu Yanhui and You Xin after all】
【You Xin’s fans are shameless. Is he an immortal? This plot of men flocking over him is really disgusting, okay?】
【Can we not read too much into it? Any two men standing together can be YY’d by you all, you’re too hungry to pick just one】
【Duan fans didn’t speak until now, which surprised me, hahaha】
【Duan fans’ hearts are bitter, I can understand. His reputation has always been clean. As a result, the first rumor he has is that he had an affair with a boy 23333】
【You Xin having an affair with other boys, Duan fans are unhappy for Duan laoshi 23333】
【I can’t help but break the news here! My friend is working in the crew for “Heartlessness”. She often sees Duan Jiashu and You Xin together. Their relationship is really good. The most exaggerated thing is that one time recently You Xin sat in front of the makeup mirror to fan himself, Duan Jiashou suddenly lowered his head and blew on his neck. Then You Xin glared at Duan laoshi but did not say anything. My friend said she was super surprised to see this. I can’t describe it well, but she said it was really ambiguous. Well, I’m done with the explosion, I’m just paraphrasing. If the fans scolded me, I already slipped away. Bye bye】
【My mother!!! Blow the neck!!! Can your friend give me a dream? I also want to see what Duan Jiashu blowing You Xin’s neck!!!】
【dream + 1】
【dream + 2】
【Now we have reached a consensus, haven’t we? JiaXin slept together, JiaXin slept together, JiaXin slept together! Everyone, please read it ten times with me!!!】
【JiaXin slept together!】
【Slept!】
【Slept!】
【Some people upstairs are sick. Such a fake thing can also be used as content. Which third rate clip was taken upstairs to deceive people? You really dare to make up anything for candy!】
【It’s the friend here. I don’t dare to break the news without any evidence. I also said Duan Jiashu is with me. I can prove it myself!】
【I didn’t want to say it, but since it was already said upstairs, I’ll just say it! I didn’t just see Duan Jiashu blowing You Xin’s neck. I’ve seen their ambiguous acts many times, and when I was listening to other actors talking, Duan Jiashu often went to You Xin’s room to find the other in the evening.】
【After reading the news upstairs, I wasn’t afraid anymore. My fear is not true, my God!】
【Every time I wake up and tell myself that real people CPs are fake, but I lose my mind again as soon as I get sugar!!!】
【Don’t you think Liu Yanhui is miserable? It’s too cruel. We’d better accept it.】
【But Liu Yanhui has another big hot CP in the past ah, Meteor doesn’t have a big momentum like MengYan before. I was a MengYan fan, so I can guarantee.】
【I remember the famous MengYan CP. The experience, upstairs, is really rich 23333】
【I also shipped Meng Shaodong’s and Liu Yanhui’s CP! It was the hottest CP in their boy group at that time! The wild gong and gentle and unmoving shou, how good ah! Unfortunately, Meng Shaodong retired from the circle and went home to inherit his throne! What a great loss to my fan circle!】
【I don’t know if Meng and Liu are still in touch. I want to have more MengYan content!】

You Xin couldn’t help but smack his lips after reading the post. No one in their former group should contact Meng Shaodong again. After all, that person is too bad.
