When it comes to Xue Lan, most people describe her as beautiful, talented, and irresistibly charming to people of every age and gender. She's unquestionably exceptional.
Too bad she's incredibly narcissistic, and quite the playboy.
When those words reached Xue Lan, she gave a thumbs-up. "Well said!"
She's never thought there was anything wrong with living life with such carefree abandon. When all is said and done, is it her fault that she's talented and beautiful?
Of course not!
She's dazzling every day, so isn't it only natural that people like her? Besides, she has more than just exceptional looks and talent. She's got a great family background, too.
She's so perfect that even Xue Lan herself finds it a little frightening!
With looks like hers, naturally, romance is always a breeze. So when her wealthy father asked her to meet a potential match, Xue Lan refused, saying it didn't fit her image.
But when her mother showed her a photo of the man displaying his eight-pack abs while swimming, Xue Lan changed her mind. She said she could go, just to make a friend.
However, when they met, the man in person didn't quite match his profile.
The man, radiating gloom, sat at the dining table, impeccably dressed and handsome. But the moment he saw her, he broke into a stiff, twisted smile that nearly made Xue Lan drop dead on the spot.
It was a long time before Xue Lan learned that it was actually a "shy and bashful smile."

Yan Hanxiao had been secretly in love with someone for more than a decade. She had stirred up his entire youth, and memories of her had accompanied him for most of his life.
He never imagined that one day he would sit at the same table as her, with each of them considered a potential partner for the other.
Sometimes Yan Hanxiao even felt he wasn't good enough for her. It was true: he was so dull and so rigid. Apart from his family background and reasonably good looks, he had little to recommend him. It was hard to imagine she would ever be interested in him.
But he would never pass up the opportunity that had been placed before him.
This time, he had to make a good impression.
