Liang Sheng is a piercer.
A fairly well-known one.
Aside from work, all the major events in her life could be counted on one hand: she dropped out of school at sixteen, fell in love with Shen Yuan at eighteen, got married at twenty-two, and then their relationship fell apart. They're expected to divorce this year.
The only thing Liang Sheng found surprising was that the media found out about her and Shen Yuan's relationship falling apart, and then a divorce reality show invited them to join...?
Oh, right. Shen Yuan debuted the year they started dating. Over the years, he acted in a few dramas, and this year he even won Best Actor.
Tsk, what a pain.
The divorce cooling-off period was already annoying enough. Now the show's producers were jumping in to make trouble. What the hell was this? Were they afraid the divorce wouldn't go through?
Just as Liang Sheng's temper started to flare, Shen Yuan said casually, "There's a fee. Probably around XX?"
The bastard had clearly figured out that Liang Sheng's weakness was money, and was deliberately tempting her.
Damn it.
But then again, you have to take advantage of a good deal when it comes along.
Their relationship was at the end of the road, and they were getting divorced anyway. Why not make a bundle before they split?
Shen Yuan wanted to save the marriage, while Liang Sheng wanted the money. Figuring neither of them had anything to lose, they joined the show.
Then Shen Yuan watched helplessly as Liang Sheng ran into Si Huaiting on the show, her unrequited first love, the one she had longed for all these years.

Si Huaiting had practiced tai chi since childhood and won plenty of awards over the years, big and small.
He was handsome, gentle, and eloquent, so he was popular with audiences and had appeared on plenty of variety shows. But he never imagined a divorce reality show would invite someone like him, with no romantic history at all.
Figuring he should take any job that came along, he entered the divorce show's observation room. Then he saw Liang Sheng on the big screen: his first love, the person he had thought about day and night for years, but never dared to approach.
The woman on the screen looked pale and tired, but was composed and beyond reproach.
So Si Huaiting realized she hadn't been happy all these years.
Everyone in the observation room sighed. He lowered his head with them and murmured sadly, "Well, that's..."
Si Huaiting's lips curled almost imperceptibly. His lowered eyes gradually began to shine.
"Wonderful."
With everyone watching, he looked at Liang Sheng on the screen.
Tai chi was what he did best, whether in competition or in creating a misunderstanding that ruined someone else's relationship.
