Synopsis
"If I had never met him, wouldn't we be where we are today..." Overnight, she went from being a proud girl from a wealthy family who dreamed of designing jerseys for her idols, to falling into the abyss. Her father was critically ill, the family business was maliciously shorted and went bankrupt, and her proud design was labeled "plagiarism" and was scorned by the entire Internet. And the source of all these disasters points to the name that once made her devote all her love to Lin Xingci. Su Zhou clearly knew that he was not wrong. It was her fault, it was her overestimating love, and it was her breaking into a world that was incompatible with her that brought disaster to her loved ones. It was her original sin to like him. So, she sold all her luxuries, blocked all his contact information, accepted the lowest-level commercial manuscripts in a cheap rental house, worked three jobs a day, and carried the crumbling home on her thin shoulders. She threw the time she spent looking up to him into the trash can along with his concert pass, determined to have nothing to do with him in her life. "We're settled, Teacher Lin. Best wishes." She didn't know that this sober and cruel farewell message made the world-renowned, elegant and world-weary international leader experience for the first time what it meant to be heartbroken. Lin Xingci is an observer who has huge wealth and extraordinary talent, but finds life boring. He originally entered the entertainment industry to better observe how human beings rise and fall in the quagmire. Su Zhou was once an interesting but not special light in his eyes. He even knew that she was the daughter of his benefactor. It wasn't until he personally found out that all the injustice and suffering she encountered were inextricably related to him. Until he saw the little sun that once warmed him. Because of him, she fell into the abyss, but still tried to shine. The calmness and control he was so proud of were all broken and out of control. He used all his capital to clear obstacles for her with thunderous means, but found that she had already built a solid ice to completely isolate him from her world. She calmly repaid him for every bit of anonymous help and drew a clear line with her actions: "I don't hate you, but I won't love you anymore either." The bystander who once thought love was a boring experience was finally pulled off the altar and turned into the clumsiest pursuer. He put down all his stature and learned how to "enter a person's life." On a rainy night, he barged into her rental house, soaked all over. His eyes were dark and his voice was hoarse: "Su Zhou, you can punish me in any way, except staying away from me. I can't stand this." Purpose: Love and redemption
