Yao An, a Libra who stumbled into the world of livestreaming while searching for writing inspiration.
Lin Xunian, a sly Scorpio who livestreams games and plots his way into Yao An's heart.
A fortune teller on an overpass said she'd end up with someone a year older than her, born in the Year of the Horse, so every person she dated afterward fit that description.
Until Lin Xunian appeared, a year younger than her.
He seemed like a fate deliberately arranged by the heavens, whether it was discovering they came from the same hometown after casually offering her a contract, their shared love of drinks from a certain shop, or a throwaway remark about phone battery levels.
But by then, Yao An had already decided to go to Chongqing to meet Qiu Chang, the person she was in an ambiguous relationship with.
Lin Xunian: "Qiu Chang, believe me when I say I'll steal Tu Tu away."
Qiu Chang: "You lousy noob, shut up."
Lin Xunian: "I'm serious."
Qiu Chang: "You're going back to Xinjiang. You can't take my girl with you."
"Who said I was taking her away?" Lin Xunian dropped his usual joking manner. As Qiu Chang watched on the other end of the phone, he looked straight at Yao An, his amber eyes full of undisguised emotion. "I'll come back from Xinjiang."
Seeing each other off at the train station
Lin Xunian: "My train is K365. It's going in the opposite direction from yours."
Yao An: "Are you serious? Xinjiang is at least 2,500 kilometers from Shaanxi."
Lin Xunian: "I've never been more serious. I'll come back. Until then, take care of yourself. Don't hurt yourself, and don't skip meals."
Yao An: "Come back. For us, I'll write a book about the one and only us."
