No More Pretending for the Rest of My Life

After setbacks at work and disappointment in love, Hu Xiu plunges into the blurred boundary between reality and fiction in the world of murder-mystery roleplay: on one side is the gentle, imaginary Qin Xiao Yi from the game; on the other is Pei Zhen, silently by her side in real life. Xiao Zhiyu uses a virtual persona to brush off her sincere feelings. Pei Zhen understands her empathy in his role as producer and protects her as someone who loves her, hiding his affection in every rescue and every moment of understanding. When the fantasy ends and the people from the past leave the stage, Hu Xiu finally sees that the tenderness spanning fiction and reality all those years, and the hands that caught her whenever she hit rock bottom, were expressions of Pei Zhen's long-held devotion. It turns out that life's most perfect ending is to say goodbye to virtual comfort and hold tight to the warmth of reality. She no longer has to drift between fantasy and truth for the rest of her life. With him by her side, she can finally feel at peace.
