They do not correspond to real artists or companies. There is no intention to smear or spread rumors. Please do not take it for granted. This is an actor's relationship that is split between the contract and the reality of the industry. Shen Zhimu and Jing Shiyan met during the long rainy season in Shanghai. Two young people with pure dreams of acting found their own kindred spirits in the entertainment industry full of entertainment and impetuosity. They shared their embarrassment as a running team, their eyes sparkled when they talked about old drama stars, and they quietly made an agreement to star in a drama together at the age of 40. The private meetings between the north and the south were filled with tenderness that no one knew. At that time, both of them firmly believed that as long as they kept their original intentions, ideals and love could always have both. "Emberlight" broke the calm. In order to seize the rare role opportunity, Shen Zhimu signed a ten-year contract with his agency. The bonus from the series' popularity suddenly turned into a shackles: the company locked up all his resources for single-player dramas, tightened controls on industry themes, and sky-high liquidated damages tied him tightly to repeated two-person business. His once-hot original intention of acting was consumed and worn out day after day. On the one hand, there is no end in sight, and on the other hand, Jing Shiyan has a bright future and is waiting for him to go to the appointment. So Shen Zhimu made the cruelest decision - he pushed Jing Shiyan away with his own hands. It's not that I don't love her, it's that I'm too aware of how gloomy my future is, and I'm reluctant to drag the person who should be shining on the screen of the drama into a quagmire I can't see the end of. He made a clean break and left decisively. He returned to the south, deleted all the interactions, and refused to leave even a single explanation. He played a ruthless and ungrateful play and deceived everyone except himself, who thought about him over and over every night. But Jing Shiyan chose to stay where he was. He didn't chase, didn't ask, and never said a word about Shen Zhimu to outsiders. He just stayed in the north, plunged into the drama, and lived step by step as they had agreed. He cleaned up all public traces, as if nothing had happened, but left the rental house intact - Shen Zhimu's slippers, his favorite Coke, and the clothes he didn't take away, nothing was touched. In his own way, he kept an agreement that no one knew about and waited for many years. Shen Zhimu thought letting go was the answer, while Jing Shiyan thought waiting was the answer. One fled south, not daring to look back; One is waiting in the north, refusing to move. Love is across the mountains, across the sea, and across a contract. It's obviously there, but no one dares to reach out first. The green hills are still there, and the evening wind blows alone. Two people who love each other stand on opposite sides of the river facing each other from a distance. [Full preview] Contracts always expire one day. When Shen Zhimu finally broke free from the shackles and stood back on the performance stage; At that time, the person who had kept the agreement for many years finally arrived. The time stolen by time and reality, the love hidden for half a life, Will you find your way home again in the evening when the wind blows? Purpose: Love cannot withstand the shackles of the world. Only by adhering to the original intention and two-way waiting can we overcome the barriers of time.
