I Became Famous After I Became a Parrot in the Movie Star's House - Extra Chapter 9

[Topic]: Can’t help but talk about celebrities exposing their secret accounts online.

(OP): I get that surfing the web with a main account is tough when you’re a public figure, so they all use alt accounts. But getting caught is just too embarrassing, right? Can’t they just stay low-key? Looking at the entire entertainment industry, I have to say, Teacher Li is the most professional—he’s never been caught using an alt account.

1L
(OP), what motivated you to bring this up?

2L
I’m guessing it’s because of Hu Yan’s scandal today. He got caught using a fake account to curse people online—his professionalism is touching, and his fan count is dropping fast.

3L
Wait, what?! Hu Yan messed up?! My new favorite just collapsed like that???

4L
Dude, this is still trending. Go check it out and then find a new idol, hahaha.

5L
Gotta admit, Hu Yan was indiscriminate with his attacks—he roasted everyone indiscriminately. No favoritism at all. (I’m here for the drama.)

6L
Damn, what was he thinking?

7L
Probably bitter. He’s been around for so long but never really blew up, so he just snapped.

8L
I can’t believe it. If you’re gonna use an alt, at least be careful! Why do they always have such an urge to express themselves? Can’t they just hold it in? (Grumbling.) Yeah, I’m his fan. Been following him for three years, thought he was finally gonna make it big—and now it’s over. I’M SO MAD AHHHH!!!

9L
So you’re a career fan, huh? Hahaha! Too bad, sisters. But yeah, this time he starred in a pretty popular drama. If he just behaves himself, he might finally get his breakthrough.

10L [Cursed Fan]
Oh, I knew he’d crash and burn.

11L
Uh… how’d you know? Insider info?

12L
Spill the tea?

13L [Cursed Fan]
Check my username. Every idol I like ends up ruined. I’m numb to it now.

14L
…

15L
…

16L
I’ve heard of these so-called cursed fans, but I’ve never seen one in real life! (Hugging my own fave tightly.)

17L
Who else do you stan? Tell us so we can stay away! (Shivering.)

18L [Cursed Fan]
Hu Yan was the last one. I’m never getting emotionally invested in an idol again. (Puffs cigarette.)

19L
Ah, you’re traumatized. There, there.

20L
Slacking off at work and reading fun posts—celebs having alt accounts is already an unspoken rule. There’s basically no one who doesn’t have one.

21L
Let me think… The Four Young Beauties all have them, the Best Actress and Film Queen’s secret accounts have already been exposed, and as for the young male stars who debuted in the last two years, they all had their own personal accounts before they got famous.

22L
Some of the ways celebs get caught are hilarious. Like, liking their rival’s post with their alt, or accidentally posting a business promo from the wrong account… I only recently learned that not everyone hands their accounts over to their management company.

23L
Hahahaha, are you throwing shade at someone in particular?

24L
Cough cough.

25L
Wait, why does it feel like we’re getting off track?

26L
Not really, isn’t this exactly what (OP) was talking about?

27L
Wait, are we just gonna ignore (OP)’s topic? This is totally a fake fan trying to stir drama. Calling out Teacher Li by name like that.

28L
Yeah, pretending to discuss alt accounts while actually using Lei to put others down. What’s your deal?

29L [(OP)]
Fake fan? What do you mean? I can’t put his name in the title?

30L
Ah… This feeling…

31L
Hmm… I think I get it now. (OP), you’re new to the fandom, aren’t you?

32L
A total newbie to idol fandom.

33L [(OP)]
Yeah, I am new.

34L [(OP)]
BECAUSE Teacher Li IS TOO HANDSOME WAHHHH! I was walking down the street, saw his poster, and got immediately captured! How can someone this good-looking even exist?! I was rolling around on my bed screaming!!!

35L [(OP)]
AND HE HAS THE MOST GORGEOUS PARTNER!!! Xiaobai is literally my ultimate type! White hair, delicate beauty, pure and stunning face—I’m dead, I’m dead, he’s my dream husband!!! HOW CAN A COUPLE BE THIS GOOD-LOOKING?! Xiaobai, please debut!

36L
???? Bro, what’s with this typing speed? (OP), chill, we see how excited you are.

37L
LMAO, I was about to gently ask if you knew Teacher Li was married, worried you’d freak out. But then???

38L
Welcome to the CP fandom, hahaha!

39L
I’m dying, (OP) sounds like a completely different person now.

40L
I totally get (OP)! I was the same—just walking down the street, looked up, saw Li Pu’s GG, and was stunned. Dude looked like a celestial being. I was shook. That’s how my fangirl life began!

41L
But damn, who knew Li Pu really doesn’t do fanservice? Guy refuses to give us anything. I’m suffering. (Pressing acupuncture point.)

42L
HAHAHAHAHA HELP. This brought back painful memories.

43L
Wait, what? Li Pu doesn’t do fanservice? Are you serious? Isn’t he constantly doing fanservice? He brings Xiaobai around all the time, their PDA is so sweet it gives me cavities.

44L
Seeing all those question marks, I honestly don’t even know where to start…

45L
Are there really this many new fans?! I’m shocked. You guys are so lucky—you get to see a dedicated and professional Teacher Li. Unlike us back in the day… wipes tears

46L ((OP) replying to 36L)
Yeah, I do type pretty fast.

46L ((OP) replying to 40L)
Right! The main reason was that it was the end of finals that day. My classmates had all gone home, and I didn’t do well on my exams. I was in a bad mood and decided to take a walk to clear my head.

I still remember that day vividly because it snowed. The school lake was covered with a layer of ice that had a gray-blue hue, surrounded by a ring of pure white snow—it was breathtaking. On both sides of the road, ginkgo trees stood tall, their golden leaves carpeting the ground. It was unbelievably beautiful.

Our campus is quite close to a shopping mall. The streets were nearly empty, so I wandered aimlessly, stopping here and there, and before I knew it, I had arrived. When I looked up, Teacher Li’s poster was displayed on the LED screen.

I can’t really describe how I felt in that moment. I’ve never had any feelings for celebrities before. My family was very strict, and it always felt like my only purpose was to study. It wasn’t until I got into university that I finally felt like I could breathe a little.

This winter break, I decided to stay on campus to work. Partly because I was bored, but also because working gives me a sense of fulfillment. But unlike before, this time, I actually have something I want to do. I binged all of Teacher Li’s past works in record time. Through that, I also discovered Teacher Xiaobai. I really admire them. They’re amazing.

47L
…

48L
…

49L
…I don’t even know what to say for a moment.

50L
(OP)’s description is so vivid—it really paints a picture. It’s like… that feeling of suddenly finding light in your life. Maybe that sounds a bit dramatic? But it just feels so nice, like something suddenly gave you a sense of support. In a way, being a fan is about hoping to embody those shining qualities that you admire in someone.

51L
Just to clarify—definitely not in the way Hu Yan handled things. That’s a disaster waiting to happen.

52L
Tsk, a family that only cares about studying… (OP) must be a straight-A student!

53L (Replying to 51L)
Hahahahahaha!

54L ((OP) replying to 52L)
Top student… I guess? I’ve been ranking first ever since I was a kid.

55L
The first part of your story was kind of sad, but the ending made me laugh. (OP), have you finished watching all of Teacher Li’s dramas?

56L (OP)
Not just the dramas—all of his works, including movies.

57L
So, just his works? Nothing else?

58L (OP)
What else? Magazines? Commercials?

59L
LMAO, (OP) is such a straightforward girl.

60L
For example, there’s also… melon (whispers).

61L
understands immediately

62L
Ah, that year, that legendary moment…

63L
Goose goose goose goose goose goose.

64L
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

65L
I can’t stop laughing, what do I do?

66L
I can’t even imagine how a new fan would react after finding out about that. Would their whole worldview collapse?

67L
Probably not that bad, but definitely a bit of a shock, hahaha!

68L
I still remember exactly how I felt back then. It was like discovering that the pristine, pure-white cabbage I adored had its outer layers peeled back… only to reveal a rainbow-colored interior with an intricate floral carving inside!

69L
WTF,that description—hahahahahaha! I imagined it from Li Pu’s perspective and nearly died laughing.

70L
Honestly, no one saw it coming. Teacher Li stayed silent for so long, and when he finally spoke up… it was a bombshell.

71L
Does that count as a “dark history”?

72L
Dark history? More like a declaration of love!

73L
I’m dead.

74L
Every time I think about Teacher Li’s imagined emotional journey, I just lose it.

75L (OP)
What are you guys laughing about?

76L
Cough Oh, just some funny stuff.

77L
Like Teacher Li’s gossip.

78L (OP) …

79L (OP)
…Teacher Li has gossip???

80L
Oh no. Just from the way (OP) wrote that, I can practically see the disbelief on her face—she even used three question marks.

81L
Uh… maybe we shouldn’t say anything?

82L (OP)
Impossible. I’ve looked through all of Teacher Li’s past topics—there’s no gossip at all.

83L
Ever considered that… maybe it’s not a scandal but more of a hilarious kind of gossip?

84L
(OP), you definitely didn’t go through all the past discussions, did you? Hahaha!

85L (OP)
I didn’t finish reading everything. But I still didn’t see any gossip about Teacher Li. And my post was about celebrities using alt accounts—what are you all even talking about?

86L (OP)
Are you guys really Teacher Li’s fan?

87L
You could say… we never actually went off-topic.

88L (Replying to 86L)
Of course we’re fans of Teacher Li! We’re old fans, hahahahaha.

89L
Only old fans have witnessed that legendary moment. Flips hair proudly.

90L
Alright, alright, let’s just spill it. If we don’t, (OP)’s going to get scared off.

91L
(OP), what exactly was the point you were trying to make again?

92L (OP)
That Teacher Li is professional and doesn’t use alt accounts.

93L
Hahahahaha, well, I have to tell you—he does have an alt account, and he was exposed a long time ago.

94L
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha, I still can’t stop laughing.

95L (OP)
I don’t believe it. You guys must be messing with me because I’m new.

96L
Wow, looks like Teacher Li’s serious image is deeply ingrained in people’s minds.

97L
Alright, my short temper can’t take this anymore! (rolls up sleeves) Let me show you the truth of the world!

98L
Link: [The person I like doesn’t seem to like me. What should I do?]

Link: [Why is the person I like suddenly ignoring me?]

Link: [Thank you all, we’re together now.]

Take your time reading.

99L
That was fast!

100L (OP)
What is this?

101L
These are posts from Teacher Li’s alt account!

Oh, and here’s another one → Link: [Analysis] Discussing the likelihood that the (OP) of these three posts is Teacher Li’s alt account.

102L (OP)
Never seen this before. I’ll check it out.

103L
Hope you come back laughing~ ❤️

104L
Honestly, when I first saw the analysis post, I was completely stunned. Never would’ve guessed it was him!

105L
Who would’ve thought Teacher Li was secretly running an alt account?

106L
I was a bit suspicious, but it was just so hard to imagine. Those posts were way too pure—like something a sweet and innocent college boy would write.

107L
Well, considering Teacher Li had zero dating history, it’s totally normal for him to be at a loss when he finally fell for someone~

108L
But he’s changed now… (sighs)

109L
He’s turned into a PDA maniac. So jealous.

110L
Or should I say… a shameless flirt? (wait a sec) He’s top-tier at clinging to his partner.

111L
Ahhhhhhh they’re seriously living their best life! Just thinking about it makes my heart melt. I ship it so hard!!!

112L
Swear to me you didn’t make a typo there (lol).

113L
I still remember when some gossip page tried to smear Teacher Li by making a big deal out of this. Their headline was “Suspected of Being Possessed by a Lovestruck Spirit?” I nearly died laughing.

114L
This whole thing is a milestone in Teacher Li’s career. So many people got curious, went looking for those legendary posts, and ended up falling into the CP pit.

115L
Sigh, I followed from the very first post. I was seriously moved back then! I thought, “Wow, what a devoted, hopeless romantic. Big sis approves!” So I gave him tons of advice…

And now…

Damn. My old comments are still there, all laid out for the world to see. It’s like a public execution.

116L
Same here. I was so emotionally invested, terrified he’d chicken out and give up. I poured my heart into encouraging him. 😀

117L
But hey, it worked! Teacher Li didn’t just take the first step—he flew forward!

118L
Damn it, don’t make me laugh! I just sprayed my boyfriend with bubble tea.

119L
And now, look at him saying stuff like, “We’re always together, basically never apart.” and “He also likes to stick close to me” Ughhhhh~~~

120L
Ughhhh~~~

121L
Ughhhhh~~~

122L
I’m dying of secondhand jealousy.

123L
Honestly, Teacher Li getting publicly exposed like that must’ve been way more embarrassing than us fans putting ourselves on blast.

124L
Yeah, even though he admitted to it openly at the time, thinking back… I still feel secondhand embarrassment for him!

125L
How many comments are on those posts now?

126L
Tens of thousands… It’s become a pilgrimage site for fans. Especially the third post!

People visit just to check in, and it’s even turned into a wishing thread for couples.

127L
That was the legendary kiss! Old fans analyzed the timeline and figured out it was posted right around when Teacher Li and Xiaobai filmed their kiss scene. (adjusts glasses)

128L
But honestly, the way Teacher Li just owned it after getting exposed was amazing! He immediately made it official, got married, and went all in. I’m in awe!

129L
If it weren’t for that legendary detective fan spotting the clues, Teacher Li’s alt account might still be a secret—and we’d never have witnessed this beautiful love story!!

130L
What was that detective fan’s username again? It’s on the tip of my tongue…

131L
Their ID was “The World Lacks Eyes That Appreciate Beauty.”

132L
“Eyes”??

133L
Yeah, “Eyes.” And turns out they’re actually a total meme lord. Hahaha.

134L
Glasses Squad!

135L
Glasses Squad!!

136L (OP)
I’m back.

137L
Whoa! That was fast!

138L
So? How do you feel?

139L
Now you believe we weren’t lying, right?

140L
Doesn’t it feel like you’re completely hooked now?

141L
Hmm?? Where did (OP) go?

142L
They wouldn’t have disappeared out of embarrassment, right? Haha, since their original stance was so firm.

143L (OP)
I’m back… (stunned)

144L
Looks like it worked well (not really), you even brought out the reaction memes.

145L
As long as (OP) isn’t too shaken, that’s all that matters. Being a fan means occasionally getting hit with some shocking news.

146L (OP)
Why did the person I like suddenly stop talking to me…

147L (OP)
Kissed…

148L (OP)
For a special reason…

149L (OP)
He said he likes me too…

150L
Oh my, (OP), are you okay? Mental well-being is important!

151L (OP)
I’m alright… just a bit dizzy from all this.

152L (OP
This is a bit too much to take in… sorry for being so hasty with my thread title, I can’t believe Teacher Li actually had a secret account! I’m applying to delete this post right away!!!

153L
No, no, no, (OP), you don’t have to delete it. Now that everything’s clear, it’s no big deal.

154L
Besides, it’s fun chatting here, we haven’t had such a wholesome thread in a long time.

155L (OP)
Alright, I won’t delete it then. Enjoy chatting, everyone! (I haven’t even finished reading the post, gotta go back and see the rest…)

200L White Hair Is a New Experience
Wow, people are still discussing this topic?

201L
Which topic?

202L White Hair Is a New Experience
Uh… Teacher Li getting exposed?

203L
Hahaha, newbie spotted! You must be from another forum, huh? Let me tell you—Teacher Li’s confession is like an evergreen topic. Every two months, someone brings it up again, and we always find new details to dissect.

204L White Hair Is a New Experience
That’s insane!?!

205L
Wait, I just remembered something even funnier—Teacher Li’s second account. Even though there’s no profile info, his level in Xiaobai-related topics is the highest. Just imagine how long he’s been lurking—checking in, doing daily tasks, silently ranking up…

206L White Hair Is a New Experience
??? That’s a thing??

207L White Hair Is a New Experience
Thanks ^_^ I learned something new today.

Bai Gaoxing lounges on the bed, scrolling through the forum, then slowly puts down his phone. He turns to the man beside him, who is also leaning back comfortably.

“I didn’t expect you to be this good at hiding things,” he says.

“Hm?” Li Pu turns to look at him.

Seeing the ridiculously high level of Li Pu’s secret account, Bai Gaoxing’s eyelid twitches.

If he isn’t bored enough to check the forum and stumble upon that post, he wouldn’t have known that Li Pu has been following these discussions since way back.

“You’re such a closet fan,” Bai Gaoxing leans in closer to the man’s face, shaking his phone.

He has seen those four legendary posts before, but since they got flooded with too many “HAHAHAs” later on, he never bothered to go through them carefully, let alone scrutinize that anonymous account.

But now? Now he’s realizing something.

The main subject of the gossip… is actively shipping himself.

Li Pu adjusts his glasses, glancing at the screen through the lenses. For a moment, his expression is unreadable, but then, a slight smile forms on his lips.

It has been two years since that post, and he hasn’t logged into that account in a long time. But he still remembers how he felt back then.

“I didn’t know what to do at the time, so I thought I’d look for advice from others,” Li Pu says.

Bai Gaoxing: “And did you get good advice?”

Li Pu pulls Bai Gaoxing into his arms, looking down at him and asking, “What do you think?”

Well, yeah. Otherwise, why would they be lying here together now?

Bai Gaoxing holds up his phone. “Wait, let me check something else!”

And that’s when he sees it.

Li Pu’s secret account is following: Dabai.

Bai Gaoxing: “……”

“You… pervert,” he mutters, horrified. Even the parrot isn’t spared?!

Finally, they snuggle together and scroll through the forum’s so-called “black history” threads.

[Thank You, Everyone. We’re Together Now.]

…What happened??

4L
Our resident man of few words is back. You’ve only made two posts, but both are legendary.

5L
Those two posts are still pinned in the highlights section. After the last one, you disappeared, and everyone thought you got locked up for forcing a kiss.

6L
Wait, you really kissed him?? rwkk rwkk!

7L
Does force-kissing actually work?? In that case, I…

8L
Hold up, don’t try this at home! (OP) must either be rich or good-looking. If you try it, you’re just getting arrested!!!

9L
Holy crap, this actually happened? Teach me how you did it??

10L
I’m begging for advice! I have a crush too! How do I get together with her???

11L
How did you two end up together?! Tell us!!!

12L
This is like fishing and ending up with no bait!

13L
Honestly, there’s no way the other person was completely uninterested. Who would let someone they don’t like kiss them?

14L
Agreed. (OP), can you share some details? Otherwise, some idiots will seriously believe it’s all about the kiss!

15L
I just looked at (OP)’s post history, and I’m speechless.

16L
Wait, what? This is my first time seeing (OP), I’m going to check too.

30L
This is insane. The first post was “The person I like doesn’t seem to like me,” the second was “Why did the person I like suddenly stop talking to me?” and now we have “Thank you, everyone. We’re together now.” What happened in between?!

31L
Even when I eat something bad and get diarrhea, it’s not this fast!

32L
Ew, the way you described that—I’m eating right now!

33L
Could the (OP) be from some rare ethnic group? Did they use some kind of love magic or something…?

34L
We need to believe in science!! But if you have a love spell that works, please recommend it.

66L
Where are you? Tell us everything!

He said he likes me too.

OMG AHHHH!!! I KNEW IT!

Waaah, this is cheating, (OP)! I was expecting an epic, struggle-filled love story, and you’re already at the finish line??

111L
Yo yo yo yo, mutual love confirmed~

Take my blessings and get lost! (A single dog covers their face and cries)

113L
Sending blessings from me and my girlfriend!

114L
That’s too much! Am I the only single person left in this world?

115L
No, there’s me too.

116L
I’m just sitting here dumbfounded… What just happened? What kind of development is this??

117L
Alright, alright, enough with the blessings. Can we get some actual details now?

134L
Post a picture! Have you two gotten married yet?

135L
Marriage! Marriage! Wedding candies! Wedding candies!

We’re planning to get married, but I can’t share pictures for now. [Smile]

Wait, hold on—are you using that emoji to mock us?!

Even my grandma doesn’t use that emoji anymore! (OP), are you secretly an old soul??

171L
I’m dying of laughter.

172L
I’m dying of anxiety—why did (OP) go silent again??

173L (OP)
We’ll make it public eventually.

1616L
You better stay happy forever!

1617L
Teacher Li successfully married his love—hell yeah!

1618L
Can’t believe Teacher Li liked Little Bai for this long. Looking back now, it’s really touching.

1619
Surprise! They’ve already registered their marriage!

56024L
Damn, people are still in this thread?

56025L
Of course! Just here to soak up the good vibes.

Tourist check-in +1.

56028L
Tourist check-in + ID number.

56029L
I’ve personally witnessed Teacher Li and Xiaoba’s happy married life—it’s really emotional. Everyone’s changing: I got into my dream grad school, my friend landed their ideal job, and my bestie found someone they want to spend their life with. But these two… they’ve never changed. They’re still so in love.

56030L
I love them so much! I’m so happy I could roll around on the floor!

56031L
Hehe, I wonder what Teacher Li and Mr. Bai are doing right now…

I can’t scroll anymore.

The thread is so long that Bai Gaoxing’s fingers start cramping from scrolling, and he still can’t reach the end. He finally gives up and jumps straight to the last page.

“Not reading anymore.” He leans onto Li Pu’s shoulder and closes his eyes to rest.

Li Pu chuckles. “Don’t want to reply to them?”

Bai Gaoxing, eyes still closed, replies, “Wouldn’t that just put us on trending again?”

He has already received everyone’s blessings—no need to suddenly appear and disrupt the peace!

Thinking this, Bai Gaoxing opens his eyes again and glances at the last comment in the thread.

They’re asking what he and Li Pu are doing right now…

Bai Gaoxing turns to look out the window. It’s 3 PM. Warm sunlight streams in, coating the bed and floor in a golden glow. He and Li Pu are curled up in bed, leisurely chatting as if there will always be endless things to talk about.

By evening, when they get hungry, they’ll head to the kitchen to wash vegetables and cook, spending a quiet, beautiful weekend together.

Perhaps this is what it means for time to flow peacefully.

This is an extended discussion from a thread + a continuation of “Thank you all, I’m with him now!”
