A Jarful of Butterflies

Genius Actress x Reckless Heir

Rekindled romance after a breakup / He said if he ever went back to her, he'd be worse than a pig or a dog. Then he went back.

In their first year of college, Shen Zhiyan finally agreed to be Xia Xingmian's boyfriend after he had given her ninety-nine love letters.

Shen Zhiyan bragged about her to everyone. At the same time, he devoted himself to his studies and to the ups and downs of the stock market, investing in industries he thought had potential. He didn't have much capital at first, but he was confident in himself. By graduation, he would be able to buy his Mian a big house and a top-quality diamond.

They would get married.

But their romance lasted less than a hundred days before his Mian told him, "Shen Zhiyan, you're really just a stepping stone to me. I only agreed to date you so I could enter the entertainment industry as Shen Zhiyan's ex-girlfriend."

The dream was beautiful, but it shattered just as quickly.

The young man's eyes were cold, and so was his voice. "Xia Xingmian, you're the most heartless person I've ever met."

They went their separate ways. Two weeks later, Shen Zhiyan left for the United States, while Xia Xingmian landed her first film role in The Sequel. She played a girl with a tragic background, blessed by the gods with beauty and talent, and became an overnight star.

They met again several years later. One was the leading figure among the new generation of actors; the other was heir to a family of wealth and status. They were both surrounded by admirers, yet never crossed paths at a single event. Then someone in the know revealed that Xia Xingmian had toyed with Shen Zhiyan's feelings to get where she was.

The trending topics exploded.

Xia Xingmian gave no response, and everyone took it as confirmation.

Who could have guessed that Shen Zhiyan would post through the Xing'ao Group he founded: "Since I was nineteen, my dream has been to marry Mian. Now my dream has come true. @Xia Xingmian"

The entire internet was in an uproar.

The hundredth love letter I give you will be a marriage certificate. From now on, we'll stay together until our hair turns white.

Reader's note: Please don't insult the female lead because of the blurb. The two of them have always loved each other. There was no playing with anyone's feelings.

Theme: Love can heal sorrow
