The first thing Qiu Yuan ever said to Tao Zheng was, "Sing a duet with me!"
He carefully took out a page covered in symbols, just so he could tell her in earnest, "I wrote this song thinking of you."
The music industry's rising star, Qiu Yuan, is suspected to be high-functioning autistic. He has no interest in anything but music.
Tao Zheng, a popular young actress who came from a girl group, is a spoiled, willful young miss. She's rich and famous, and has repeatedly snubbed her sponsors.
The first time they were spotted together in public after announcing their relationship, Qiu Yuan was sitting expressionlessly by the roadside while Tao Zheng cheerfully went over to coax him, kissed his cheek, and ruffled his hair.
Since when had she become so patient?
Even the gossip accounts couldn't help but sigh, "Poor girl. Dating someone autistic must be so hard. Even Tao Zheng has to hold back her temper."
It seemed as though their story could only have happened because Tao Zheng made the first move. Everyone assumed she was the one who sacrificed more and took more initiative in the relationship.
But Qiu Yuan had always been the one to make the first move.

He can't express himself, yet tries so hard to show his love.
She enjoys being loved, yet still feels starved for affection.
A pot for every lid (not really)
The female lead absolutely won't put up with the slightest grievance. Others think she gives more only because she expresses her feelings more openly.
