Some of you might know about the Finding Shoe CP aka Zhaoxie CP - Zhao Jing x Scorpion King. Today I bring you Wang Ruolin’s (actor playing Zhao Jing) road to acceptance of this CP.

Part 1: Initial reactions

#WordOfHonor #ShanHeLing

Part 2: Starting to doubt himself

Please this is so funny it’s my fave comment after that “understand?” comment

Part 3: Acceptance

He started following his own CP super topic and even started liking posts from the super topic. On WHITE DAY, he liked these fan videos and one was coincidentally liked exactly at 5.20pm (code for I love you).

Share = Xie-er
Eve / if = Yifu

BONUS: Li Daikun’s (actor playing Xie-er) reaction to the CP. Cut from his livestream on 11 Mar. Video created by yours truly. #zhaoxie #findingshoe

BONUS BONUS: Wang laoshi actually saw an excerpt of the livestream on douyin. And this was his comment

Ah I accidentally deleted this 4 second segment from the Li Daikun video. This is also what’s shown in the screenshot for that douyin video

Here’s a small extra from Li Daikun’s interview. As someone who turns on the bullet screen, I totally knows what he’s referring to. I’ll try to find a sampling and post in the next tweet

THIS IS WUXIA WORLD UNDERSTAND

Translated just some of it. There are funnier ones I’ll see if I can find

Actually yesterday both “Zhao Jing is a scumbag” and “Xie-er quickly get away” were trending and went up the Hot Search on wb.

There was a poll asking if Zhao Jing is a scumbag and Wang Ruolin posted a comment rallying for support from this fans. It ended with 940 votes for no.

Wang Ruolin’s post the day before

Updates from Wang Ruolin and Li Daikun today. Minor spoilers if you’re not at this episode yet!

I present you some other Wang Ruolin replies lmao. I can’t even I’m ded. He’s my little monster!!! Wtf???

Wrt the bamboo/ panda reference there’s a popular online slang 夺笋 (snatching bamboo) which is a pun on 多损 (high damage) which just means something like “what a burn”.

Also I can’t believe I missed Wang Ruolin officially announcing they’re a CP on White Day. He’s deleted the post now but what’s posted online is never really gone. OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCED CP!!! Let this ship sail hahahah

This is from the comments section of their posts on 18 Mar (scroll up this thread to view OG post)

Zhao Jing can’t even cut rope = ep 5 of Word of Honor
Wu Yang = the other godson, the one who gave Zhao Jing a manicure

Li Daikun posted this picture of himself on his Instagram account with the caption “share”

Abi said I’ve to add this into findingshoe thread because it shows how much Li Daikun cares for Share and also the nuances he added to his character

Cut from Ke Naiyu’s Youku interview

I realise now it’s Xie’er and not Xie-er oops. Anw adding this here because relevant

Li Daikun’s goodbye message to Share. He posted this comic together with the message. And just in case Xie Jie Liu Bo is his full name in the show lol.

Video posted by Wang Ruolin on his wb yesterday 27 Mar, bidding Zhao Jing goodbye

I’m ded this is the drawing Wang Ruolin drew of Yifu and Share. According to him, Share is holding a calligraphy written by Yifu. LOOK AT THE HEART WHERE THEY’RE HOLDING HANDS! And this rainbow... isn’t that.. well... g a y

Small note on why Zhaoxie CP is called findingshoe. It’s a pun on zhaoxie. When you type zhaoxie on the pinyin keyboard the first phrase that comes up is 找鞋 which means finding shoe. Yea, the CP name is just so casual/haphazard
