When Liu Yuning and Song Zuer’s Three-Year Spark Finally Hit the Screen

Liu Yuning and Song Zuer Spark CP Craze in “The Prisoner of Beauty”
Liu Yuning & Song Zuer’s Unexpected Chemistry: Fans Have Been Shipping Them Since “The Truth”!

Looks like we’ve got a full-blown CP situation on our hands! Liu Yuning and Song Zuer’s pairing in “The Prisoner of Beauty” is heating up screens—and fan imaginations—with a marriage-first, love-later drama that’s not just smashing viewership records but also stirring up some serious “what if” energy between the leads. 

With over 800 million views under its belt, the show’s blowing up, and so is Liu Yuning’s follower count—he’s racked up 550k new fans on Weibo and a tidy 610k on Douyin, all thanks to his swoon-worthy performance as Wei Shao, the ultimate softie-warrior type.

But here's the twist: the chemistry didn’t just magically appear on set. Turns out, these two go way back—three years ago, to be exact, when they both appeared on the reality show “The Truth”. 

Back then, they were just co-stars solving puzzles and playing mind games (literally), but one particular moment lives rent-free in fans’ heads: when Zuer got spooked during a challenge, Liu Yuning hugged her without hesitation. That single instinctive move had netizens screaming “CP confirmed!” way before either of them stepped into costume.

Now that they’re finally leading a drama together, the CP flames are burning brighter than ever. Liu Yuning’s dedication to his craft is also winning hearts. According to Zuer, he’s the type who memorises everyone’s lines—not just his own—and never brings a script to set. 

No doom-scrolling or distractions either, even after late-night livestreams. “He’s incredibly focused,” she said, cheekily admitting, “I have a bad memory sometimes, so watching him go scriptless while I’m still cramming makes me feel guilty!”

And he’s not just serious off-screen. While “The Truth” showcased a logical, chill version of him, Zuer says he becomes way more playful when filming dramas. In one behind-the-scenes clip, she joked around hiding under the bed saying, “My king, play a game with me!” to which Yuning shot back, “Alright—but blindfold yourself and shout where you're running!” Netizens couldn’t get enough of their adorable banter.

When asked about their first impressions of each other, Song Zuer called Liu Yuning "very tall and very interesting," while he just kept it classic: “She’s just beautiful, a very pretty girl.” Cute. Their first-ever conversation? Apparently, it was Zuer asking about his dog Da Mai on their first day filming The Truth. Simple beginnings, but that moment of casual small talk planted the tiniest CP seed in fans’ hearts.

Even back then, during a spooky puzzle challenge, Zuer got startled by a hand from behind the wall and Liu Yuning—without even thinking—hugged her from behind. The clip still gets passed around today by fans as “evidence” of his natural boyfriend energy.

Wei Shao & Xiao Qiao Forever? Liu Yuning’s Sweet Real-Life Moments with Song Zuer Win Over Fans

Now, with their sizzling on-screen chemistry in The Prisoner of Beauty, fans are louder than ever: “They NEED to reunite in another drama!” CP shippers have basically been proven right all along, and honestly, we’re not complaining.

No official romance here, but in the world of C-drama CPs, this is gold-tier content. Whether it's real or just the kind of connection that makes dramas work so well, we’ll take it. And who knows—maybe one day, we’ll see Wei Shao and Xiao Qiao reunite for another round of onscreen destiny.
