[Male Unrequited Love] [Also Known as: The Male Lead Is Always Having a Meltdown]
Male Lead: A handsome narcissist who "has frequent meltdowns but is good at cheering himself up"
Female Lead: A "short-sighted" beauty who "takes things as they come" and has "perfect follow-up insults"
Female Lead's Perspective:
Wang Yuren is nearsighted. She used to go to the basketball court at the mine to wait for her best friend, Xu Cheng. Later, she got busy with school and never went again.
Three years after graduating from college, she returned to Liangcheng for work and met the son of a local supermarket chain's owner. While adding him on WeChat, she heard that he had a "first love" he'd liked for eight years.
Later, Wang Yuren learned that this first love was actually her.
Male Lead's Perspective:
In high school, a pretty girl from another school came every week to watch Zhang Jianyue play basketball. Then one day, she stopped coming.
Later, Zhang Jianyue went to great lengths to get her WeChat, accompanied her to cram school, and walked her home from evening study from a distance. But they barely spoke. When he was young, he thought that was what dating was.
Years later, when they ran into each other at the supermarket, Zhang Jianyue thought, "Hah, she's here to rekindle our old flame."
Instead, Wang Yuren took out her phone and said, "Boss, can I add you on WeChat?"
From then on, Zhang Jianyue began his long journey of emotional meltdowns.
[Little Theater]
Wang Yuren apologized to Zhang Jianyue for having been unaware that he had secretly loved her for eight years.
Zhang Jianyue cupped her face and said tenderly, "It's not your fault. I just loved you too quietly before!"
Wang Yuren: "Then what did you think when I came back to Liangcheng and asked for your WeChat?"
Zhang Jianyue: "I can only blame myself for not being dazzling enough in high school, so it took you all these years to notice me!"
