Male lead's perspective, past life:
In his previous life, Luo Que became famous at a young age and won all three major acting awards. Arrogant and disdainful of others, he never knew how to soften his words and offended countless people without meaning to. In the end, someone set him up and dragged him into a scandal. Overnight, he was blacklisted across the internet. His fans turned on him, and his haters celebrated.
His company looked out for itself and abandoned him. Luo Que paid a hefty sum to terminate his contract, then went into business.
When he had nothing left, someone claiming to be his fan came to apply for a job, asking for an extremely low salary.
Luo Que hired him mainly because it would save money!
Later, he accidentally learned that the young man was the younger son of the Song family. Eager for revenge, Luo Que knew Song Shao Ran liked him, and used his feelings to borrow the Song family's influence and establish himself in A City in a short time.
Five years later, he had become a rising business star. The people he once couldn't afford to offend bowed and scraped before him, and he had dealt with everyone who had framed him. His former reputation was cleared, but when he looked back, the young man who had always been by his side had vanished...
Reborn, Luo Que looks at the young man before him, whose face is still the same and who is now lively and healthy, and says, "I'm your fan. Could I get your autograph?"
Receptive lead's perspective, present life:
Song Shao Ran chased his idol straight into show business, even falling out with his older brother over it. Keeping his secret identity under wraps, he went from a pampered young master of the Song family to a newcomer in entertainment, spending his days running around as an extra on various film sets.
Later, Song Shao Ran's extra work got him into a movie starring his idol, Luo Que. He caught the award-winning actor's eye and got more screen time, going from extra to supporting actor, and moved up a rung in their relationship, going from fanboy to boyfriend.
Song Shao Ran chased his idol all the way onto his household registration. He was truly the number one fan, living the ultimate dream of every fan.
His older brother doted on him, and the idol he'd secretly loved liked him back. Song Shao Ran had thought he was the luckiest person alive, until he started living with Luo Que...
After they moved in together, Luo Que would wake from dreams again and again, always checking that Song Shao Ran was there. Still dazed, he would hold him tightly and apologize with deep guilt in his voice, full of remorse and anguish. His tight embrace made Song Shao Ran's chest ache...
???????? One-on-one from beginning to end. No first love he couldn't forget, no love that left a permanent scar. Song Shao Ran is the ultimate winner in life.
Content warning... There don't seem to be any. The male lead isn't perfect, though; he has a tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny flaw in his personality?
Theme: Communication matters most.
