Shen Yue is a beautiful, wealthy college student whom her best friend ropes into the online game “Illusory World of Love.” She's skilled, but a newcomer to the game.
Movie star Gu Chenzhou secretly joins the game under the ID “Drunk by the Lamp.” He's cunning and arrogant, and he loves picking off stragglers in the beginner village.
When she accidentally wanders into danger, he casually rescues her. Their daily party adventures begin: he complains to her face, but spoils her rotten behind her back.
Then she unexpectedly gets a golden finger, and her ability to sense the game skyrockets. She can see through dungeon mechanics at a glance.
She can predict a boss's movements, time skill cooldowns to clear dungeons without taking damage, and somehow get better equipment drop rates.
While others are stuck after ten attempts, she clears the dungeon on her first try and snags the server's first clear along the way.
He secretly watches her back as she grows at an astonishing pace. Her server ranking soars, and together they become a legendary duo.
From the game to voice chat, from meeting in person to real life, they find their way to each other through a mix of sweetness and angst.
His identity as a movie star is revealed, and their relationship goes public. When the media storm hits, she handles it with confidence.
Her best friend's schemes, online smears, family opposition: the two of them handle every obstacle together.
At last, the wedding goes live, the whole server gets an announcement, they register their marriage in real life, and hold a wedding in the game.
By the time their child can say “Daddy,” their old game IDs are still displayed beneath their couple title.
A fairy tale that began with online dating and lasted a lifetime is now part of the history of “Illusory World of Love.”
