I Ship My Rival X Me manhua volume 3 features story by PEPA and art by Qualia.

After their agency green-lights a brilliantly flirty fanservice idea to promote their drama, Waves of Parting, Gu Yiliang and Wei Yanzi host a chaotic live stream that results in an explosion of NSFW fanfics. Now it’s game on.

Wei Yanzi is determined to find out if Gu Yiliang is actually gay, or if he’s just doling out the sugar for show. Meanwhile, Gu Yiliang is still under the impression that Wei Yanzi has a sugar daddy sponsoring him behind the scenes, and the jealousy becomes crippling. He proposes a new idea to Wei Yanzi: Why doesn’t he become Wei Yanzi’s sugar daddy instead?

Wei Yanzi, master of missing the point, doesn’t understand Gu Yiliang’s proposition. Is Gu Yiliang saying he wants to treat him like a boyfriend? That’s what he’s been doing this whole time, isn’t it? But to Wei Yanzi’s bewilderment, Gu Yiliang dials up the flirtation to max levels! By the time the two are headed back to Gu Yiliang’s place to “play games,” Wei Yanzi is left wondering—is this man trying to kiss me or kill me?!
