Shu Man spends her days looking worried.
The task in this transmigration into a book isn't difficult. She just needs to use a little of her acting skill, fresh off winning Best Actress, to fake a wildly popular couple with her assigned partner on a dating show.
But no one told her that her partner would be Cen Tu, the man she left at the altar!
Cen Tu is the sole heir to the Cen family, one of the most powerful families in Beijing. A true favorite of fortune, he became the talk of the town over drinks in both Beijing and Shanghai after she ran away from their wedding.
Never mind pretending for her. Would she even survive long enough to appear on the dating show?
Despite saying that, Shu Man gritted her teeth and went for it.
Filming began.
Shu Man put on a cool front. "Can I borrow your jacket?"
Cen Tu buttoned up his coat and stopped the staff. "Get this lady a blanket."
When they went out,
Shu Man stopped the Porsche. "Rideshares can't get in here. Could you give me a lift?"
The person inside didn't even unlock the door. He left her standing outside. "It's not on my way."
On their date at the cinema, the room was dark.
Shu Man had a sudden idea and secretly took his hand.
Two minutes passed.
Huh? That's not right!
Why hasn't he pulled away yet?
Cen Tu has recently encountered two strange things. First, he inexplicably transmigrated into a book. Second, his ex-fiancée, who ran away from their wedding, says she likes him.
He'd once sworn never to have anything to do with Shu Man again, but that vow went out the window.
One evening, Shu Man asked him to go for a walk. In front of the cameras, she kissed him by force. The whole internet erupted, convinced they were already together.
Cen Tu thought so too.
When the cameras were off, he didn't feel offended by what happened that night. In fact, he found himself thinking back on it. On impulse, he even wanted to ask Shu Man out for another "walk."
He went upstairs and knocked on Shu Man's door. "Want to go for a walk?"
She didn't even open the door. "No. Work hours are over."
