My Boyfriend Discovered My Zhihu ResponseCh6 - Losing Anonymity

April 23rd, 2019.

I have been away from Zhihu for three days, and you guys are already stirring things up. dR0Cam

As for that anonymous response, I read it, but it’s just…

I don’t feel like it’s from my boyfriend. He is not someone who hesitates; he is more of a carefree individual.

Hey, you guys have made me a little smart now. I just looked at the hot list and found that this question was already on the hot list. I clicked on it and my answer ranked second. You are afraid that I won’t be noticed, right? I just deleted all the identity information in front of me. After thinking about it, I deleted all my answers. I originally wanted to delete it directly, but I’m afraid you’ll be angry, so I’d better ask for your opinions first.

Gosh, you guys are making things hard on me as well. I just checked the popularity list and found this question there. When I clicked on it, my response was ranked number two. Are you guys not afraid that someone is going to find out who I am?! Just earlier, I went and removed any information that could narrow down my identity. Do you want me to delete my entire response instead? I had the thought to go through with it, but I don’t want you guys to be mad at me, so I want to hear everyone’s opinions first. 84 Rqh

Wanwan: No! ! ! Your answer is now my daily spiritual motivation. Don’t delete it. I still want to read the follow-up.

We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.

Absolutely: No, don’t!! Great one, your response is the motivation that gets me up every day. Don’t delete it, I want to see what happens next.

Liu An’an An’an? 233233: What the respondent said is correct. I saw that some people in the comment area below were discussing the respondent’s school campus and asking for chance encounters. It was quite annoying. Everyone should just read a novel and not affect the respondent. Three-dimensional life.

Liu Annnn » 233233: Anon is right, I saw the discussion going on in the comment section of people trying to deduct Anon’s university. They were even wishing for a chance to encounter Anon in real life and what not. It’s pretty irritating. Everyone should just treat this like a novel, so it won’t affect Anon’s life in the real world. tZp VJ

233233 » Liu Annnn: But I just can’t bear not knowing the conclusion.

A Certain Siyan: Don’t delete your response yet. Come down, the two of us need to have a good talk, dearest boyfriend.

Absolutely » A Certain Siyan: ???

Sensible Person » A Certain Siyan: ???? zXP47Z

mica » A Certain Siyan: Aren’t you playing way too deep into your role?

233233: Can someone explain to me what just happened upstairs? (confuse)

Qi Xi ? 233233: Ah, ah, you guys go and look at the answer that was found before. The answerer has hidden it.

Qi Xi » 233233: Ahhh, everyone, quick. Go check that other response from before. That Anon had taken off anonymity. GCnN2y

Liu Annnn » 233233: I just checked, and now I’m crying. It’s really that user upstairs.

Sensible Person » Liu Annnn: What do you mean, gong made an appearance?

Absolutely » Sensible Person: Correct. Is that A Certain Siyan, he is the other Anon.

Self-Amusement: Which floor has the link? Why can’t I find it? Could any good Samaritan tell me, I need to know! g6PEUo

Secret » Self-Amusement: Begging as well!

Qi Xi: Did any of you notice the profile picture of the guy upstairs? The back views of the two boys look quite handsome. It’s such a fairy love. In fact, I always thought it was made up.

Qi Xi: Did any of you guys take notice of upstairs’ avatar? It’s a picture of two guys from behind. I can tell that both of them are quite handsome. This must really be an immortal romance. You know, I really thought this whole story was made up.

Big Head Big Head » Qi Xi: So, it’s confirmed that this real-life story is genuine? nCVseo

Un-Informal: I’m sour, so very sour.

Absolutely » Qi Xi: Wait, where’s Anon? Where is our little shou?

Qi Xi » Absolutely: …

Qi Xi » Absolutely: He is probably getting what’s coming for him. iLF9JI

Translator's Note

So, in chapter two, there’s a user called ‘Liu Annn’, it was 劉 (liu) and three 安 (an). But in this chapter, there is 劉 (liu) and four 安. Not sure if this is a typo from the author or the user’s second account. Treating it as latter.

Translator's Note

Already in English. Left it as lowercase to match the original text. A few speculations, it’s either an (rather fun word to use) Italian way of expressing a negation without coming right out and saying it or reinforcing a negative you are indeed saying; Maryland Institute College of Art; or a group of silicate minerals.

Translator's Note

Commonly used in Chinese forum posts when addressing prior posts. Upstairs usually means the people above you.

Translator's Note

To find amusement in one’s own way/to enjoy oneself quietly.

Translator's Note

Commonly used in Chinese forum posts when addressing the actual post or the number of posts. Each post means a floor. It’s essentially asking which page the link is on.

Translator's Note

Pretty sure it’s from a nursery rhymes. It goes something like: big head, big head, I’m unfazed by rain; you have an umbrella, I’ve my big head.
