Proud young heiress of Shanghai x devoted heir of Beijing

Childhood sweethearts / The childhood friend wins / Reunion after a long separation

1.

Su Hua, a low-key heiress from one of Shanghai's most prominent families, has spent years struggling to make her way in show business. She finally becomes a sensation thanks to a historical xianxia drama, where her dewy doe eyes and exquisite, ethereal Hanfu win over audiences.

At the height of her fame, she is exposed as the cuckolded girlfriend of fellow actor He Hanxuan, who was spotted on a nighttime outing at Yan Lake with a young actress his own age. She becomes the entertainment industry's most talked-about victim of infidelity.

That same month, Su Hua is spotted drinking all night at a bar, while He Hanxuan and the up-and-coming actress canoodle on set, leaving no doubt about the affair.

That night, Su Hua's "big brother" posts a photo of them together and writes sharply, "The Su family isn't a place where just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can get in. Does he really think he's good enough?"

In no time, "He's not good enough" goes viral. And it's true: He Hanxuan couldn't earn Su Hua's fortune in three lifetimes!

He Hanxuan: "Hua Hua, that seductress bewitched me! You're still the one I love most."

Su Hua: "I'm tired of telling you to get lost."

Fu Yiheng is a rising tech star whom all the eligible ladies of Jincheng adore, but he thinks so highly of himself that no one measures up. Ever since he was a child, his heart has held a "little jasmine" more fragrant than anyone else.

After returning to China, he sees Su Hua's devotion to the wrong man turn her into a laughingstock in their circle. He holds her delicate chin and says in a husky voice, "Hua Hua, you've been naughty."

Su Hua doesn't panic over the scandalous entertainment reports. But when she runs into him, she blushes furiously. Hadn't he stayed in Australia and never come back?

One runs, the other chases, and at last Su Hua falls into Fu Yiheng's tender trap. He pulls her into his arms and steals a kiss. "Hua Hua, remember how you promised me when we were little that you'd only be with me?"

Backed into a corner, Su Hua says, "I think... I might sort of remember?"

"Then I don't mind helping you remember properly." Fu Yiheng presses his lips to her ear, restrained yet tender.

After breaking up with her scumbag ex, Su Hua spends her days on set filming patriotic movies, then temporarily disappears from the public eye. The mistress pays for fake news to twist the story and smear Su Hua.

Quietly earning her success, Su Hua smiles radiantly as she holds her Best Actress trophy. "With this trophy in my hands, I want to tell a certain gentleman that his 'little jasmine' isn't as fragile as he thinks."

After this remark, entertainment reporters wonder: Is this certain gentleman her ex? Is she still involved with that scumbag?

At a private celebration, a media outlet that wanders in catches Jincheng socialite Fu Yiheng pinning a drunk Su Hua against a wall as they whisper intimately. People in show business begin to speculate: Is he her sugar daddy?

That night, Fu Yiheng boldly declares his love for his wife, posting their marriage certificate on Weibo:

Fu Yiheng: @Su Hua is my little jasmine. I was the one who seduced her.
