Chuchu was a princess of Chu. In an instant, she transmigrated into the body of a wealthy young lady from the Chu family, who had lost her memory because of a plot.
After one night of passion, the two became mutually willing bedmates.
They never kissed or slept in separate rooms, sharing a bed but nothing more.
Yet when she won the Best Actress award, she left without a sound.
While his peers were still thrilled to be called "the Crown Prince," Xie Yan had long since outgrown the title and joined the ranks of the true big shots.
He could have anything in the world, yet that one night had left him addicted.
If one night wasn't enough, then he would keep her tangled up with him night after night.
Once he kicked the habit, he could go back to being Master Yan: disciplined, proper, and always in control.
He had always thought he was the one moving the pieces. She left, and he didn't chase her.
When they met again, she was a young lady of the Jingzhou Chu family, charming everyone she met.
On one side was the fiancé she had fallen for at first sight. On the other was the secret crush she'd been unable to confess in her youth.
Only then did he realize that he had long since lost his heart, and that she was an addiction he could never kick.
Before love could take root, he was already addicted. One night was all it took, and the habit was hard to break.
Lu Tingyi was arrogant and proud, yet he kept suffering humiliating defeats at Chuchu's hands. He was deeply in love without realizing it, and all he could do was stubbornly deny it and pick fights.
By the time he understood his feelings, she already had him by her side.
