Tang Jiting, who only makes art-house films, is not only making an idol drama for the first time, but will also star as the male lead. The female lead acting opposite him is an amateur.
Only Tang Jiting would dare to do something so bold in the director's circle.
Nobody has faith in the film. They go in expecting a spectacle, but come out in tears.
Netizen A: This is the pinnacle of unrequited love.
Netizen B: The male lead has it so rough! I hope there's a sequel!
Netizen C: Childhood friends really are the best.
Hater: You've got to be kidding! Director Tang and the female lead really are childhood friends. No wonder he agreed to make an idol drama and star in it himself. He was using public resources for personal gain all along.
Fans: Get together! Get together! Get together!

Song Yazhi had dreamed of becoming a star since she was little. She'd kept this secret for a long time, even longer than her crush on Tang Jiting.
When asked why she had agreed to Tang Jiting's invitation to play the female lead, Song Yazhi could only answer, "I owed him."
Tang Jiting, beside her, said coolly, "Mm."
The atmosphere immediately turned chilly, and the host awkwardly tried to change the subject. "After watching your film, everyone has been urging you to get together. Have you ever considered making your on-screen romance real?"
Tang Jiting elegantly spun the ring on his finger and said calmly, "We're married."
The host misunderstood him and hurriedly apologized. "I'm sorry. I didn't know you were married."
Only after a moment did the host realize what he meant. "What? You two are married, or are you each married to someone else?"
Song Yazhi said awkwardly, "We really did get a marriage certificate for the film."
[ Tang Jiting really got a marriage certificate just to make a film! ]
[ I heard Tang Jiting specifically trained to become a director for the girl he likes, just so he could cast her as the female lead. ]
[ I'm so jealous. Director Tang's films really are impossible to surpass. ]

Song Yazhi, unaware that Tang Jiting was in a video meeting, hugged the aloof beauty from behind and said softly, "My mom wants to meet you. Are you free that day?"
The staff attending the meeting on the other end of the call were so excited they were going crazy. Was this something people who hadn't paid for a membership were allowed to see?
Tang Jiting remained composed. He first turned off the video, then drew the woman he loved into his arms and said tenderly, "Any day works."
His world had been cold until he met her. Only then did he learn what warmth felt like.
