Chu Guli died of sudden cardiac arrest from overwork, then was reborn ten years in the past, back when she had just debuted and become a huge success by pairing herself with a male star for publicity. Back then, she had abandoned the young woman who had cared for her in every way and started promoting herself as a couple with the male lead.
Reborn once again, Chu Guli had experienced great highs and lows and thought her heart had become as calm as still water. But after tasting success, she couldn't let go. She greedily missed those years when she basked in the adoration of the crowds. When she started promoting herself as a couple again, she discovered that the young woman who had once cared for her so attentively had started pursuing the male lead.
"A Li, A Li, could you get me his autograph?"
"A Li, A Li, could you have him... taste this soup?"
"A Li, A Li, could you give him this scarf?"
"A Li, A Li..."
Chu Guli finally understood why she dreamed every night of the contents of her diary, as though she were inside it, reliving her past all over again.
And now, in this parallel world, the young woman who had once loved her most had fallen for someone else...
That was her greatest punishment.
From then on, she lived a divided life.
At night, in her dreams, that young woman was always saying all kinds of sweet things to her. "A Li, I love you..."
But by day, she would look at Chu Guli with bewilderment. "A Li, what are you doing? We're just friends..."
Even though that young woman no longer loved her, Chu Guli still wanted her! She... loved her!

Reading guide:
1. By day, T pursues P; by night, P pursues T. This is a parallel world, and the past seen at night will not change.
2. Since it's a diary, every night Chu Guli's perspective shifts to first person. This also helps readers distinguish the past from the present.
3. The past timeline will not change, and the present-day consciousness does not exist there, so A Li is quite a jerk in the past. But in the present, this is a groveling-to-win-her-back story.
4. Since the story follows two timelines in a parallel world, it may get a little confusing. Read carefully and savor it, and you'll get your reward.
5. There are some original details, and the diary sections are long, so don't overanalyze them. This story is fictional, so don't draw parallels with real life. If it's really not your thing, please click the X. Feedback is welcome. Thanks for reading.
6. Keywords: entertainment industry, parallel worlds, rebirth, pursuing each other across time
