Synopsis

[Entertainment-industry socialite x top power player x ensemble cast of the capital’s elite x a touch of angst]

On the first day Fang Ci arrived in Jingbei, a friend warned her not to get lost in Shengjing’s glittering, hedonistic world. The rich young heirs played rough, and no one could come away unscathed.

Fang Ci had been clever from childhood and possessed a face capable of bringing kingdoms to ruin. She prized freedom and spontaneity, considered herself above it all, and had thought she and he were evenly matched opponents.

“Ah Ci, stay by my side.”

She watched him use his clumsy, old-fashioned tricks, yet willingly lost herself in him, step by step, all the while fully aware.

To make her happy, he opened a company to serve her, all for the sake of making her a star.

“I’m here to see Cheng Chen.”

When she went to Yueban Bay with the address he had given her, the security guard insisted the homeowner’s surname wasn’t Cheng.

Life stretched before her like a wilderness. She longed for wildflowers and birdsong, but he was obsessed with standing atop the most expensive skyscraper in the city.

At the awards ceremony, she stood onstage in a custom-made gown. No longer green or naive, she had become a dazzling A-list actress. He sat below, discreetly rubbing the Buddhist beads around his wrist.

In the moments between, he would occasionally glance back at her, his expression hazy, then raise his glass and continue making the rounds. His features suddenly seemed a little clearer to her.

(The story moves at a slower pace, with a long-planned romance. The heroine starts out as a sweet, innocent girl and only grows into a strong woman later.)
