As a matter of fact, Chi Manyu and Xie Jiayou had met long ago.

When she fell in love with him at first sight, he rescued her. Unfortunately, Xie Jiayou had his face covered.

When he fell in love with her at first sight, she was introducing him to a puppy.

Unfortunately, she was allergic to dog fur and had her face covered too.

When they finally met face-to-face,

they disliked each other and neither recognized the other.

01

Chi Manyu was unquestionably a rising star and a traffic queen over the past few years.

But recently, the media snapped photos and reported: "Chi Manyu meets a handsome mystery man at Maoming Residence. Suspected secret marriage."

Her agent, Sister Jin, exploded.

"What kind of nonsense is this? I'll handle the PR right away!"

Chi Manyu said calmly, "No need. I made the announcement half a minute ago."

--Fans sent their congratulations one after another.

But some netizens had a question:

Who exactly is this handsome civilian?

Chi Manyu was annoyed and pinched Xie Jiayou's handsome face.

How could anyone call someone this handsome a civilian?

Their first official meeting

was on the project "Sui's Pivot."

The director had invited him to serve as a literary consultant.

The two discussed the plot.

She'd heard that Xie Jiayou had won the Cao Award at just twenty-six,

and was the only handsome man in literary circles.

Chi Manyu didn't know him and had never read his books.

She'd always thought most writers were bespectacled men and women who looked old and stuffy.

But once she saw him in person, she changed her mind.

He really was handsome.

02

Xie Jiayou wasn't any better.

Because Chi Manyu was mired in controversy, he went straight to the director and said,

"Teacher Chi may be too young. My female lead needs literary depth, and she can't pull off that kind of temperament. You should keep looking."

Chi Manyu heard about it and called Xie Jiayou.

"Send me your address. I'll come study with you, Teacher Xie, and build some literary depth!"

03

Chi Manyu never should have joined the Sui group.

Then she wouldn't have gone to Teacher Xie's house every day to look at the script,

or talked with him late into the night,

or done something unspeakable on the day filming wrapped,

or gotten tangled up with the clingy, jealous Xie Jiayou!

04

In a fit of panic, Chi Manyu ran away.

Xie Jiayou had been blocked and deleted,

turning into a heartbroken puppy and searching everywhere for her.

Meanwhile, Chi Manyu went on a dating show!

Xie Jiayou couldn't take it. He called the production team,

and the next day, he made a pitiful surprise appearance on the show.

Before burying his face in the hollow of her collarbone where no one could see,

he asked, "A-Yu, do you really not want me anymore?"
