Xu Ying, the marshal’s daughter and a modern woman recently returned from studying abroad, has fallen for an actor.
A year ago
Everyone: “You’re just attracted to his looks. No matter how well an actor sings or how breathtakingly beautiful he is, he’ll never be respectable. A young master from a prominent family would be a much better match.”
Xu Ying: “I’ll marry no one but him!”
A year later
Everyone: “That actor can’t even perform anymore. A pampered young lady like Miss Xu won’t last more than a few days before running back to the marshal’s residence.”
Lou Tianqiu: “You should go. We were never that deeply bound to each other, and you don’t have to drag yourself down for my sake.”
Xu Ying: “I’m not going!”
Two years later
Everyone: “Miss Xu really does love a pretty face. He’s so sick now, but she’s still staying just for his looks.”
Lou Tianqiu: “Will you leave?”
Xu Ying: “Should I, then?”
Lou Tianqiu: “You can’t.”
Xu Ying: “Did you just see me glare at you?”
