Exclusive devotion in body and heart, older woman pursues her wife, bittersweet romance with a happy ending
In her most innocent days, Xuan Ying joked with her fans on a livestream that if anyone tried to sleep their way into favor with her, she'd go down fighting with them. Otherwise, she wouldn't deserve to call herself human.
But before long, she was in bed with her top fan, willingly sleeping with her again and again.
Once, when they paused in the middle, she laughed and cursed herself. "I'm not human."
Feng Luohua kicked her, then pulled her back. "What are you babbling about? Hurry up."
In the year she loved her most, Xuan Ying was willing to stand in the freezing snow for seven hours in a clumsy mascot costume, just to catch a glimpse of Feng Luohua.
She didn't think it was hard. The woman she loved would give her a passionate, generous reward on those cold nights.

For Feng Luohua to secure her position as the group's heir, her future partner could only be one of two types: someone powerful, or someone talented. A genius.
But Xuan Ying was neither. Worse, she was an entertainer the Feng family looked down on. To be precise, she was an influencer, even further from being respectable.
No matter how careful she was, their secret affair still came to an end when faced with the choice between personal feelings and career. She had to choose one.
She chose the latter without hesitation.
Because Xuan Ying's career was part of it, too.
On the day they broke up, one moment they were in love in a movie theater, and the next they were kissing goodbye beside a musical fountain.
It was the first time Feng Luohua had let Xuan Ying kiss her in public, and it was the last.
Xuan Ying bit her lip hard enough to draw blood. The salt of her tears and the metallic taste of blood mingled as she laughed and cried. "Feng Luohua, starting tomorrow, don't you dare think about me."
Feng Luohua, unusually gentle, wiped away her tears and answered, "Okay."

Later.
Feng Luohua really did find herself a genius.
She spent a fortune setting up a research studio for the genius, had dinner with her at the most expensive, highest revolving restaurant in Jingping, built snowmen with her on the most romantic streets of France, and took her to a charity gala hosted by the family... She did everything she had never gotten to do with Xuan Ying.
Little scene:
After cutting out her lovesick side, Xuan Ying became hugely popular. In just a year, she signed with a company, appeared on music variety shows, released an album, and landed brand deals. At last, she made a name for herself in Chinese-language music as a singer.
During a late-night livestream, a fan asked her: "Xuan, you've written so many moving original love songs. Have you really never been in love?"
Without even thinking, Xuan Ying replied, "Haven't I always been in love? Music is my one and only eternal lover."
Just then, the top fan who had been gone for ages suddenly came online. After sending one rocket yacht after another in the fan carnival, she commented: "I miss you."
The comments section instantly turned into chaos.
But Xuan Ying remained calm, neither surprised nor delighted. In the joking, coaxing tone she used with her fans, she said, "This sister, missing me is free, but please keep it under control."
The fan logged off.
Then, in the corner of Xuan Ying's calm gaze, her long-silent private phone vibrated again and again.
