[Cold, aloof actor + elegant, refined screenwriter with a mysterious identity + mutual firsts + a slow road to winning her back]
Nan Chu is a wildly popular novelist and screenwriter, and she also has another, mysterious identity. She approaches Song Qingyan step by step, plotting and scheming for a long time, all just to win a smile from him.
Renowned actor Song Qingyan fought his way through countless hardships to reach his position today. He has a secret, one he has kept for many years.
He has always been calm and self-controlled, never imagining he could become obsessively enamored with a woman, or that he would gladly sacrifice everything for her.
Song Qingyan: “Marry me.”
Later, Nan Chu: “Let’s get divorced.”
Song Qingyan: “Wait for me. I’ll come marry you.”
Nan Chu had spent a long time preparing for their wedding. She had imagined countless times wearing a pure white dress symbolizing her unwavering love... but her groom never came.
Nan Chu: I could even accept that you don’t love me, but my pride won’t let me willingly be someone else’s substitute.
Years later, he became a celebrated actor and she became a corporation’s president. They thought they would never see each other again.
Song Qingyan: “Why don’t you love me anymore?”
Nan Chu held back her pain. “I never loved you.”
What counts as love? Going to the city where he lives and staying by his side, even if only as someone unimportant?
Or willingly giving birth to his child alone? Or watching him reach the top, then hiding in a corner to congratulate him?
Song Qingyan’s love: Love at first sight, four years spent searching, falling for her all over again and loving her to the depths of his soul, then searching across mountains and seas for four years until he finally sees her again. This time, he won’t let go.
He loved her for eight years and searched for her for eight years.
In the end, even Heaven was moved, and they finally found their happy ending.
