"A calculating female reporter vs. a cool, scheming movie star"
At the age of 21, Zhu Xin earned the chance to study abroad in London as an exchange student thanks to her excellent grades. There, she met Fu Jingze, who was then sunny, cheerful, and handsome.
They fell for each other and soon became a couple.
Fu Jingze described her this way: “Gentle, clever, resilient. Her beauty is the least remarkable thing about her.”
But the difference in their family backgrounds drew fierce opposition from Fu Jingze's mother, Chen Yuehua.
An arson attack made Fu Jingze witness Zhu Xin and her mother die in the flames, leaving him with severe PTSD.
Five years later, Zhu Xin changed her appearance, took the name “Zhu Qing,” and deliberately approached Fu Jingze, who was now thriving in showbiz as a movie star.
He had changed completely. He was notorious in the industry for his bad temper, until he met Zhu Qing.
She plotted every move with a smile and a knife behind her back. He saw through her from the start, yet gladly played along.
