Ruan Shu has been single her whole life and is known as an honest, down-to-earth person, yet she often has all kinds of unspeakable dreams.
One thrilling, melodramatic scenario after another plays out, but the male lead's face is always blurry.
Every morning when she wakes up, she reflects: This really will be the last time!
Then she heads off to work feeling refreshed.
One day, her company asks her to coordinate with Xie Jianjun, a top-tier star, the nation's sweetheart, and the dream man of countless fans.
They meet for the first time.
Xie Jianjun leans back in his chair, gazing at her intently as if she's prey, never taking his eyes off her.
Ruan Shu feels unnerved by his stare, yet for some inexplicable reason, he seems familiar.
She has no idea that Xie Jianjun suffers from chronic insomnia, and the only time he can sleep is when he enters a woman's dream.
Xie Jianjun's prolonged stare leaves everyone puzzled.
His boss tries to smooth things over: "Teacher Ruan may be reserved, but she's excellent at her job."
Reserved?
Xie Jianjun studies her innocent-looking face and recalls the scene in his dream where she was bent over that desk. He rubs his fingertips together and gives a cool, faint smile.
The things she likes are anything but reserved.
He has made her cry countless times in their dreams.

After discovering that nothing can stop them from sharing dreams, Xie Jianjun and Ruan Shu agree on three rules.
Ruan Shu follows them all.
But in the end, the dreams become reality, and she has no idea how things got to that point.
Afterward, whenever she sees Xie Jianjun, she wants to run away. How is he even more intense than he was in her dreams?
On the day their collaboration ends, Ruan Shu clutches her lower back and tries to leave.
By sheer coincidence, a reporter catches her on the way.
Reporter: "Have you heard the recent rumors about Xie Jianjun? He's always cultivated the image of a devoted romantic, and he personally confirmed that he's only ever had one unforgettable first love. Do you think this will ruin his image?"
Ruan Shu gives three answers in a row: "I haven't heard. I don't know. I'm not sure."
She thinks this is the last connection between them.
That evening, while sorting through old things at home, she repeatedly spots a younger Xie Jianjun in the backgrounds of her middle school photos.
She also finds a love letter she'd once forgotten, with no name signed at the end.
It's in Xie Jianjun's handwriting.
Before she can process it all, she sees on the trending page that Xie Jianjun has reposted her interview video.
Xie Jianjun, usually so calm and reserved, with flawless interviews, responds: [She should know perfectly well.]
#What she thought was their first meeting was actually a reunion.#
#The superstar has always been the man of my dreams#
1. They do everything in their dreams, but keep things sweet and innocent in real life. A modern romantic comedy where even holding hands or kissing makes them blush.
2. The male lead has long suffered from insomnia and can only fall asleep when he enters the female lead's dreams.
Both are each other's first love, with no prior sexual partners.
