Threaded by Fate

Summary:

Wang Yibo locks eyes with Xiao Zhan for the first time on Day Day Up and unknowingly sets himself on a collision course with obsession. Determined to stay in denial about whatever he’s feeling, Yibo becomes Xiao Zhan’s most devoted undercover fan—watching from the sidelines and convincing himself it means nothing.
Blending real-life events, behind-the-scenes moments from The Untamed, and everything that comes after, this story traces Yibo’s unraveling emotions as admiration slowly turns into something far more complicated.

In this fanfiction, the story unfolds entirely from Wang Yibo's perspective. It intertwines real-life events with fictional elements, so please read with discretion. Above all, enjoy your hyperfixations! I will probably translate this in Mandarin Chinese at some point

Note: This story does not contain any smut whatsoever, as it is based on real people. Thank you, enjoy.

Chapter 1: Summary

Chapter Text

Yibo has always admired Xiao Zhan from afar, captivated by his talent and presence. His admiration turns into an obsession as he desperately tries to find Xiao Zhan, tracking every move until one day, he stumbles upon a post saying Xiao Zhan has been chosen to be the main character in a drama. Yibo sees this as his chance and goes to great lengths to secure a position on the set as a co-worker. Once on set, he fights the urge to touch or get too close to Xiao Zhan, wanting to respect his space. But his struggle doesn’t last long.

As the filming progresses, Yibo's feelings deepen, and despite Xiao Zhan's initial indifference, they develop a friendship. Eventually, Xiao Zhan begins to return Yibo's feelings, and what started as a one-sided obsession blossoms into something more.
