Back in their school days, Lai Qingqing was the classic bad student in the eyes of her classmates and teachers. She hung around with the school's good-for-nothing boys every day, and almost everyone kept their distance from her.
On a rainy summer day, that bad girl tossed her umbrella into his arms and smiled at him, her eyes gleaming. She was so beautiful it didn't seem real, as if she might vanish the very next moment.
Another summer, seven years later.
Lai Qingqing grabbed his wrist. “Have we met before?”
Jiang Zhiqiao glanced at her. “Didn't you say I was your star?”
Reunited, they move in together.
Jiang Zhiqiao takes a breath.
Lai Qingqing: This guy really knows what he's doing.
After living with Jiang Zhiqiao for a while, Lai Qingqing discovers that he's had someone he loved for a long time, and she might just be his stand-in for his beloved first love. Heartbroken, she goes to Fang Ying to cry about it. Some time later, Lai Qingqing posts on her social media:
Sorry, turns out I'm the beloved first love.
Fang Ying: What a lunatic.
“Jiang Zhiqiao, do you believe in shooting stars?” The girl looks at her with a bright smile.
“My second wish was for Jiang Zhiqiao to never be lonely again.”
“But I don't want to ask a shooting star for help with this wish. I want to be a shooting star myself, just this once. Jiang Zhiqiao, will you be with me?”
“With me by your side, you'll never be lonely again.”
I'm most afraid of the dark, so more than the sun, I need the stars to shine for me at night.
