I Ship My Rival x Me (The Comic / Manhua) Vol. 2

The full-color manhua (comic) adaptation of the hit danmei/Boys'' Love novel! A lighthearted romantic comedy about two rookie actors who learn they’re being shipped online. Wei Yanzi and Gu Yiliang debuted together three years ago, from the same agency, so it was inevitable that they’d be considered rivals by their fans. Unfortunately for Wei Yanzi, while Gu Yiliang has phenomenal acting skills to go with his idol-tier good looks…Wei Yanzi only has the idol-tier good looks. He’s so tired of reading online hate comments accusing him of scheming to undermine Gu Yiliang that when he stumbles across a community of people who fervently believe the two actors are an item, it’s not just a shock--it’s a relief! Moved by these fans’ passion and thrilled to find a community where nobody’s trash-talking him, Wei Yanzi becomes addicted to their posts analyzing his and Gu Yiliang’s every move for shipping fuel. Of course there’s nothing actually going on between the two of them…but as he spends more time with Gu Yiliang on the period drama they’re filming together, why is Wei Yanzi starting to feel like the shippers might actually be onto something?!

“YOU'RE ALL I CAN SEEM TO THINK ABOUT.”

After a chaotic evening full of giving Gu Yiliang’s evil stepmother a piece of his mind, Wei Yanzi is beside himself. It seems that no matter what Wei Yanzi does, he and Gu Yiliang only grow closer by the second. But that only spells trouble for Wei Yanzi, who is trying to lay low and keep the few fans he does have.

Call it a delicate game of cat and mouse, but if the fandom were to find out about their new relationship dynamic, there'd be hell to pay and then some. After all, in their current political climate, it’s not like gay men are accepted all that easily, not to mention the damage it could do to their careers.

But Wei Yanzi is getting ahead of himself. First, he has to figure out how he ended up in Gu Yiliang’s room, the two men pinching each other’s cheeks…? And given the current situation, are we really all that certain Gu Yiliang is straight, anyway?
