[Rekindled romance + groveling chase + unexpectedly adorable domineering CEO + devoted to each other, one-on-one]
Clearheaded, award-winning screenwriter vs. cold, abstinent, childish movie star
Five years ago, screenwriting student Wen Zhi overheard her campus-crush boyfriend, Shen Shiheng, say: “Wen Zhi? She’s just a practice run. As soon as I win Best Actor, I’m dumping her.”
That night, Wen Zhi texted him to break up, changed her name, and left town.
Five years later, at Su City Airport,
Wen Zhi runs into Shen Shiheng, the entertainment industry’s top-tier star and award-winning actor.
He gives her a cold glance without even saying hello, yet he’s still wearing the watch she gave him five years ago.
Wen Zhi sneers. “Hmph, putting on an act.”
Only when they start working together does Wen Zhi realize something is off:
This actor, cold and abstinent on camera and sharp-tongued and aloof toward the whole crew, turns around and tugs at her sleeve. “Wen Zhi, look at me! I was amazing in today’s scenes!”
The whole company is afraid of President Shen, but he stares into space during meetings and immediately sits up straight when she glares at him.
She so much as looks at another actor, and someone replaces him that very night, claiming: “His acting isn’t good enough.”
Wen Zhi can’t take it anymore. “Shen Shiheng, what exactly are you trying to do?”
The movie star’s eyes turn red, and he looks utterly aggrieved. “I want to marry you. I wanted to five years ago, and I still do.”
“Wen Zhi, I never thought of you as a practice run... Will you give me one more chance?”
