At the station’s request, Suixin wrote a book called One Heart, One Mind.
Here’s the basic premise:
At Southern TV, there’s a weekly program every Saturday.
Suixin is one of the hosts. She’s used to standing quietly at the edge of the noisy stage.
Shen Yi is a rich young heir who entered show business because he was bored with school. At the time, he had just shot to fame thanks to a drama and was a frequent guest.
On the night they first sang an old love song together onstage, her voice cracked on the high note.
She was a complete mess, and everyone laughed.
Shen Yi didn’t laugh. He turned, reached out, and pulled her against his shoulder.
He came to her rescue.
The screams from the audience nearly lifted the roof.
The host seized the moment and asked a follow-up question.
The young top-tier star looked straight into the camera and said something outrageous.
“She’s mine.”
After that, the program aired.
Suixin watched as the buzz instantly blazed across the entire internet.
Every recording afterward felt like a carefully scripted idol drama.
He called her name over and over, his eyes fixed on her, unwilling to look away.
Fans scrutinized every moment they shared, finding enough sweetness in the air to make it taste like sugar.
Only Suixin knew the truth: it was all for the show.
At the height of the buzz, both their teams rushed to distance themselves, issuing one denial after another.
She faced the camera and said, word by word:
“We don’t keep in touch privately.”
Then, despite working year-round without a break, she submitted a leave request and completely avoided every recording involving him.
The whole world believed it.
They believed it was an outright marketing stunt from beginning to end.
Even the two of them believed it.
They believed that the other had only ever been putting on an act.
Later, Shen Yi left show business to inherit the family business. The much-discussed scandal eventually became “stale candy” to his fans.
Nobody knew that hidden among the interactions dismissed as “for the show” were secrets only the two of them understood.
Watching the news of him leaving show business on her screen, Suixin suddenly remembered:
Everyone thought the love was fake.
But the warmth of his embrace and the way his heart raced for her were real.
The embraces and heartbeats they shared in the dead of night had truly happened.
When this book came out, nobody paid it any attention.
But when Shen Yi, having left show business, suddenly announced on Weibo that he was married, the whole internet began digging for details.
And then, to everyone’s surprise, they found the answers in this book!
Even their real names were used!
So why hadn’t it become popular? Because Suixin was too obscure...
Back to that summer:
2008: Shen Yi met Suixin.
2009: Shen Yi protected Suixin.
2019: Shen Yi fell for Suixin.
2020: Shen Yi confessed to Suixin.
2022: Shen Yi married Suixin.
Shen Yi. A spoiled rich kid from a military compound. He looked aloof, but was unapologetically wicked. He devoted himself to Suixin, the girl who had just moved in, and devoted himself to teasing her.
Suixin. The good girl all the elders adored. She was shy at school, quiet and reserved around people. Only for Shen Yi did she throw herself into the entertainment industry and become a host.
Shen Yi was selected as a trainee at fifteen and debuted at nineteen. Thanks to his family background, his career took off effortlessly, but at the height of his fame, he announced he was leaving show business. No reason, no explanation. He was simply done.
And right when Shen Yi left show business, Suixin wrote this biography.
It was called One Heart, One Mind.
