What?! A Superstar Asked for My WeChat on the Street!

Six years after Lin Xiao disappeared, Gu Chen ran into her again. He relentlessly pursued her WeChat and barged straight into her life.

The company contract forbade dating during its term, so before he had even fallen in love, Gu Chen was already preparing to terminate it.

He wanted to hold on to both his career and his love life. No matter how busy he was, Gu Chen found time to show up in front of Lin Xiao. If he couldn't go to her, he would find a way to lure her over. With the excuse that being close meant he could get ahead, he shamelessly moved into Lin Xiao's home.

At his first concert after terminating the contract, Lin Xiao sat in a VIP seat she'd gotten through the back door and watched Gu Chen sing the closing song. She knew the lyrics and the simple music video on the screen all too well: they included the awkward, uncertain days of her youth.

She had once loved someone. In that brief romance, all she felt was the distance between them and the pitifully small amount of affection he gave her. Lin Xiao didn't think it counted as love. It felt more like charity.

The pavilion at Gu Chen's studio was exactly like the one at X University all those years ago. There, Lin Xiao listened to Gu Chen explain, only then realizing that their paths had crossed six years earlier.

Later, Lin Xiao appeared in the music video, completing the unfinished version in full. Gu Chen then openly admitted they were in a relationship. Fans dug up his old Weibo posts and pieced together most of his romantic history.

Only then did Lin Xiao realize that what she thought had grown between her and Gu Chen over time had actually been his long-planned scheme all along.
