[Blurb]:

The first time Hua Mian met Lin Chengxing, he was singing at a shopping mall with a guitar.

His humming was casual, his voice low and a little melancholy. It lingered in her mind.

Intrigued, she watched him for several days. He showed up on time every day.

She tossed a little money his way every day.

Later, she had no idea how this led her to a low-key, widely admired behind-the-scenes musical genius and composer.

She often thought that surrounded by thousands of people, his detached, nonchalant manner made him seem far too aloof.

That was until he began writing and performing songs for her, then made his debut as a singer and released an album. Every tender lyric spoke of his love for her.

At his concert, he embraced her in front of everyone...

"I held a concert just because I wanted to hum a song for you."

The music industry agreed that its great master was a solitary figure who neither needed nor could have a girlfriend.

No one expected that his heart already belonged to someone.

Lin Chengxing: "A friend betrayed me, and my career was at a low point. I picked an empty spot to sing, just to ease my frustration. Then I noticed a girl tossing twenty yuan into my guitar case.

Her eyes were big and bright, clear and innocent.

I figured she must have thought I was a street performer.

It was a long time before I found out that twenty yuan a day was her fixed dinner budget back then."

The host exclaimed, "That's a match made in heaven, a love ordained by fate!"

A sweet, gentle, adorable, timid but tough, goofy sweetheart vs. a soulful, melancholic original music producer

One-on-one romance, both are virgins, each other's first love, happy ending. The author thinks there are no landmines. A sweet, healing romance.

No real-life inspiration, no logic. All information referenced in the novel comes from Baidu Baike.

The variety show setting draws partly on reality, but please don't conflate it with real life.

Screenshots were taken on 2019.5.30, hehe.

I often go back and fix typos. Slow burn. 80% anti-piracy protection.

Mu Sheng always believed that she and the Best Actor Ning Shu truly loved each other.

Whenever the man looked at her, his eyes held an uncontrollable desire.

Who knew that as soon as they left the set, he would break up with her and give her ten million yuan as hush money?

She took the money, then watched him treat another woman well.

When the man looked away from that woman, he soon spotted Mu Sheng.

She met his gaze without a care and gave a cold laugh. Swirling her red wine, she raised her glass to him from across the room.

Unexpectedly, the TV drama they'd just worked on together became a huge hit after they split.

She shot to fame as a stunning new-generation A-list actress, while he was a noble and peerless Best Actor with overwhelming power and influence.

Countless fans lined up to ship them and obsess over their chemistry.

The director seized the moment and asked them to work together again.

Mu Sheng was about to say no way, but the moment she saw the tempting payment, she agreed.

In their second drama together, she becomes a bewitching butterfly, spreading her brilliant wings. Lurking behind a trap, she uses every trick in the book to lure him in, step by step.

As she watches him gradually lose his composure, she curls her lips and agrees to get back together with him.

On the night filming wraps, she rushes to find him, smiles, then presses a card against his chest.

"I'm getting a little bored. Let's break up. Same price as before: ten million. I'll pay you."

"What, I'm only worth ten million?" Ning Shu's expression darkened.

She laid her index finger over his thin lips and said softly, "Mr. Ning, I never bargain."

"In that case, let's not date." His smile faded. He put an arm around her slender waist, his eyes dark and intent. "Let's get married. My price is everything I own."
