[Versatile singer-songwriter queen x secretly devoted heir to a powerful Beijing family + sweet romance + second male lead’s regretful pursuit]
Five years of a secret relationship earn Qiao Yilin nothing but a scornful remark from Duan Shengran at his celebration banquet: “Be with her? That’d be so beneath me.”
Qiao Yilin turns and walks away without hesitation, vanishing from his world.
She flees the capital to find inspiration, but still can’t escape his humiliating text: “Who besides me would ever want you?”
Just as she’s at her lowest, she runs into “Nine-Tails,” the most sought-after male model around, with broad shoulders, a slim waist, and devastating good looks.
She boldly proposes, “Would you pretend to be my boyfriend?”
The man gives a low laugh, his breath scorching. “Pretending is no fun. If we’re doing this, let’s do it for real.”
After one wild night, Qiao Yilin runs away in a panic.
When they meet again, she’s a rising star in the music world. The man pins her against the backstage wall. “Why are you running? I don’t bite.”
Forced to keep this “Nine-Tails” by her side, Qiao Yilin thinks they’re merely putting on an act, each getting what they want.
That is, until her best friend’s scream bursts through the phone: “Qiao Yilin! Nine-Tails is here with me! Who’s the man standing next to you?!”
Qiao Yilin freezes and looks toward the kitchen, where the “imposter” is wearing an apron and cooking congee for her. That’s right: who is this attentive, tender man, really?

Duan Shengran is sure Qiao Yilin is only throwing a tantrum. “Qiao Yilin, you’ll never find anyone who loves you as much as I do.”
He coolly watches other men court her, waiting for her to regret it and come back.
Instead, he can only watch as that mysterious man draws her into his arms, while she shines brighter than ever.
At last, the proud man’s eyes redden. He bows his head completely, his voice hoarse. “Linlin, please… love me one more time.”
Qiao Yilin’s expression is indifferent. “We can’t go back.”
