.

At twenty-six, Meng Zhiwei loses her memory in a car accident. Her mental age reverts to sixteen, and she feels as if she was a carefree rich girl just yesterday. Then she opens her eyes today, only to be overwhelmed by a flood of information she cannot take in.

What? My dad died? How?

What? There are several different versions of his decision about how to divide his estate before he died?

What? Four men are all claiming to be my fiance?

Meng Zhiwei stares blankly at the four men standing in front of her in a row, utterly bewildered.

.

A handsome, wealthy business tycoon; a romantic, considerate rising artist; a household-name, formally trained Best Actor; and a proud, impoverished younger man with a wolfdog streak. Every one of them claims that before she lost her memory, she promised to be with him forever.

One of these four men has been plotting for a long time, one acted on a sudden impulse, one has old grievances with her, and one only wants to keep her safe. And every one of them is lying.

At home, Meng Zhiwei finds an unsent letter about whom to invite to her engagement party. It has been revised and reworked again and again, making her feelings clear, yet the recipient's name is missing.

Who was the person she wanted to get engaged to? And who was the love she never dared to name?

As she pieces together the clues, Meng Zhiwei gradually realizes that over the past ten years, she silently loved someone for a long time. She never said it aloud, but she never let go, either.

She will lift the fog, sort out the truth, put everything back on track, and then find that person.

Upcoming novel: Give Me the Morning Star

.

“Later, everyone said I was precious, dazzling, and radiant. But this star of mine was once trampled into the mud, waiting a long time for a miracle. At last, it rose again in the palm of your hand.”

.

At fifteen, Ning Yaoxi became an online sensation for a supporting role in a movie, and entertainment agencies fought over the chance to sign her. Everyone said she was about to embark on a dazzling path to stardom. Only Qi Yun, a rookie agent at the time, took one look at her and said, “You're heading in the wrong direction.”

Eight years later, Qi Yun has fallen out with the artist he manages and shaken up half the entertainment industry. Ning Yaoxi, meanwhile, has become a washed-up, thirty-eighth-tier nobody, drowning in debt. Her company has clearly told her it will not renew her contract, and she is about to return to civilian life.

When she stops Qi Yun and pitches herself to him, he looks her up and down twice and asks nonchalantly, “What, because I just got rid of a smug social climber, I look like I might sign an innocent, airheaded sweetheart?”

“I'm not like the other artists you've managed,” Ning Yaoxi says. “Five years ago, you said in an interview that your dream was to personally train a superstar who could reach the top of the entertainment industry. I think that person should be me.”

.

They walk side by side and help each other succeed. The fireworks and smoke of battle begin here. From today on, she will become the queen of the entertainment industry.

.

Later, after Ning Yaoxi has made it, an interviewer asks her about her relationship with Qi Yun.

Ning Yaoxi smiles. “I'm the only person who could sell Qi Yun and still make him worry about whether I got a good price.”

Qi Yun, seated beside her, is infamous inside and outside the industry for being vicious, domineering, and impossible to deal with. As everyone in the studio stares at him as if he were a ghost, he keeps a straight face and pretends he didn't hear her.

“From the day he became my agent, he became one of my own,” Ning Yaoxi says. “He's my knight, and he's also my confidant.”

.

You cut through every obstacle for me, and help me triumph over everything. This brilliant future would not be complete without walking by your side.

Upcoming novel: Limited Sunset

.

Jiang Sitang has been doing problems until her mind is going numb. Miserable and at the end of her rope, she turns to Chen Ziyu and demands, “Tell me, how much would it take for you to transplant your brain into me? I've got plenty of money, so name your price.”

Chen Ziyu buries himself in a mountain of questions and answers without looking up. “First, we'd have to clear out all the useless mush in your head. Otherwise, there wouldn't be any room for the knowledge I transplant.”

Then unless she could be remade from scratch, there was no hope at all! Jiang Sitang lets out a miserable sigh and bangs her head against the desk in despair.

.

“Chen Ziyu, there's a three-hundred-point gap between us,” she says. “I'm trying, but it's too hard, and it's too late. I make a little progress, and you move even farther ahead. It feels like I'll never catch up.”

Chen Ziyu's pen keeps moving, his voice calm. “There's also a three-million gap between us. It's enormous, and we're running out of time. Even if I slow down a little, I still feel like I won't make it in time.”

.

“Oh.”

Jiang Sitang shakes her head. “But I don't have those three hundred points, or that three million. Our family...”

“I know,” Chen Ziyu interrupts, lowering his eyes to the test paper. “But I want you to have all of it.”

.

One evening at seventeen, before evening study hall, Jiang Sitang lies across her desk and sees the most beautiful sunset of her life.

The slanting rays bathe Chen Ziyu in a warm glow. Bringing the future with him, he leans toward her, his pen blossoming across the test paper.

.

A top student from a humble family x a rich girl who is bad at school; the good kid everyone else's parents wish for x the girl rumored to be bad.

An innocent age, a slow passage of time, and stories from a small town. They weather the turbulence of youth and hold hands through every morning and evening.

No dating or intimate scenes before they reach adulthood.

.

Theme: Love and courage can overcome every hardship.
