At three in the morning on the seventh day of filming the dating show, Huo Qinghe wakes up on the sofa.
In her previous life, she was the “villainess” reviled by the entire internet. She wouldn’t leave the heartthrob Zhang Yu’an alone, was cursed until she quit showbiz, and eventually died in a rented apartment.
This time, she decides to lie flat.
She appears without makeup, goes to bed on time, and lets everyone else fight for attention. When people make snide remarks, she pretends not to hear; when they target her, she smiles. She turns the dating show into a paid wellness retreat.
But she doesn’t notice that the socially anxious heartthrob everyone adores keeps glancing her way.
Zhang Yu’an doesn’t understand.
Why is everyone else so passionate toward him, while she acts as if he doesn’t exist?
Why would she rather listen to a podcast alone than spare him a glance?
Why does he want to get closer the more she avoids him?
From “She’s so strange” to “She’s so special” to “She can only be mine.”
From a soft-hearted pushover to a fiercely protective puppy.
Whoever insults her, he insults back. Whoever bullies her, he protects her.
The whole world loves Zhang Yu’an.
And Zhang Yu’an loves only Huo Qinghe.
[The heroine awakens but doesn’t seek a comeback; she just wants to lie flat]
[The hero is a socially anxious heartthrob who treats only her differently]
[She’s cool, he’s warm; she hides, he chases; she runs, he protects]
[A dating-show ensemble cast, everyone has their wits about them; no catfighting or brainless characters]
Later, the whole internet asks what makes her so special.
Zhang Yu’an gives just one answer:
“She doesn’t have to do anything. Just standing there is enough.”
That summer, she decides to give up on everything on a dating show.
By a strange twist of fate, she wins the heart of the one everyone adores.
