Ten years ago, she saw him shining like a star.
Ten years later, she finds him, dejected, in a theater. He has gone from being surrounded by stars to being forgotten by everyone.
On one side is a rising star at a foreign investment bank with a bright future. On the other is a top-tier star who disappeared from the public eye beneath a flood of scandalous rumors.
She is not like a ray of light. She is a blade cutting through the darkness, its point aimed straight at his heart.
And he gradually realizes that this endlessly rational woman is the only person who has truly remembered him all these years.
Later on.
The entire investment world knows that the GS managing director, who never takes sides, personally brought a disgraced entertainer back to center stage. And at last, he sang "Quicksand" once more.
"I'd known you so many times before we ever met. That's not fair."

"Yucheng is so big. What made you think we'd ever run into each other?"
"Nan Xing, I've made too many mistakes, and I tend to get stuck in my own head... Will you wait for me to catch up with you? This time, I was the one who saw you first."
Theme: True strength isn't about never falling. It's about daring to bare your scars after you've fallen from the top, and clear each other's names. Two independent souls dance together in the dark, each the other's armor and the other's way home.
