The Live-Streamed Love Story: When the Tsundere Billionaire Stops Pretending

On the eve of her departure to study abroad, Chloe seeks out Ethan, her aloof childhood friend, to say goodbye. He asks only which university she will attend, then turns to leave, so she hides the confession gift behind her back. Then floating text appears before her like a live-stream comment section, urging her to confess and warning of darker turns to come.

Spurred on, Chloe blurts out that she has liked Ethan for a long time and offers the gift. His expression freezes, and he coldly demands proof of her feelings. The comments hint that on his birthday he had secretly prepared balloons and rings, and that he told her parents she was dating someone else, which sent her abroad. Convinced she is only pretending so she can stay near Alex, Ethan accuses her of having no moral compass.

Humiliated and furious, Chloe kisses him, then throws the gift down and walks away in tears, while the comments predict the story is heading toward imprisonment and forced love.
