The Moon, in My Heart

With a basketball in his arms, Meng Shichu opened the front door and saw a shabby-looking girl sitting on the sofa.

Meng Shichu: Who are you?

Mrs. Zhou, returning from the supermarket: "This is your Aunt Ye's daughter. She'll be living with us from now on."

The country girl took him back to her village and tricked him into digging up sweet potatoes.

Young Master Meng had never done such heavy work before. He was so tired he could barely straighten his back.

The country girl propped up her straw hat. "Meng Shichu, you're not much of a man!"

A man can't admit defeat, so Meng Shichu fell for her trick and kept digging away at the sweet potatoes.

Meng Shichu said to Jiang Muyue: "I want to have a relationship with you that improves our genes."

Jiang Muyue: "I don't like idiots."

A poor student like Meng Shichu studied hard with all his might, just so he could embrace his moon.

They each got into college, then spent four years apart.

Meng Shichu married young, but his fans complained that their idol and his wife weren't a good match, and that Jiang Muyue wasn't good enough for him.

Later, Meng Shichu accepted the Best Male Singer award at the Golden Melody Awards and gave a speech: "A lot of people think my wife and I aren't a good match. It's true that my wife is an outstanding person. Without her, I wouldn't be where I am today. I'm grateful she didn't mind my shortcomings and agreed to marry me. I'm the one who married above his station."

His fans scoffed, until a national television program interviewed the family member of a staffer working on a newly excavated ancient tomb of great archaeological value.

Family member, Mr. Meng: "I fully support my wife's career. She's an outstanding person."

Fans: "What the heck, a family member? No wonder he's been out of the public eye lately. Turns out he was accompanying his wife. Another day of crying over a love story worthy of the immortals."
