[From secret marriage to going public, from secret love to growing old together]
Everyone says Lu Chenyuan, the top-tier star and award-winning actor, and Wen Yunian, the musical genius, are strangers with nothing in common. No one knows they have secretly been married for seven years and lived apart for five winters.
On a rainy night years ago, Wen Yunian wanted to burn the marriage certificate, its pages weathered by time. He fiercely protected it, sparking the growing distance between them.
During their five years apart, a delicate chain around his neck hid the earring he had lost, and he quietly dealt with every crisis for him. Onstage, he made a subtle declaration of love while accepting an award. His phone was full of pictures and videos of him, and he couldn’t bear to miss even a single one of his extra roles.
A dating reality show forced them to reunite. In front of the cameras, they were polite but distant co-stars. Away from the cameras, the hidden worries during a high-altitude game, the care by a sickbed late at night, and a bowl of vegetarian dumplings made just for him revealed the love they had kept hidden for five years.
From misunderstandings to finally understanding each other, from a marriage in name only to a love that would never let them down. Of all the beautiful sights in this world, I only want you by my side, year after year, never apart.
