At sixteen, Qi Ruxu became the youngest Best Actor, a white rose beyond the reach of countless admirers.
His face, hazy in the smoke on screen, was praised by critics, treasured by fans, and served as the first crush for who knows how many people.
At twenty-six, the former Best Actor had fallen on hard times.
The unreachable beauty had fallen into the mud, where everyone wanted to pluck him.
Liao Jiyan was the richest, so he was the one who took the rose.
-
Liao Jiyan had always known he was a rich second-generation heir, and his rebellious phase seemed endless.
Until one day in high school, when he happened to glance at his roommate's desk.
The person on the screen had tear-reddened eyes and damp lashes, slowly exhaling smoke.
As innocent as a child, yet as wanton as a god.
Liao Jiyan stood frozen, his heart pounding like a drum.
His rebellious phase ended.
At last, he entered the adolescence he'd been late to, an era called Qi Ruxu.
His first love changed young Liao Jiyan's whole life's direction.
He would get closer to Qi Ruxu, just a little closer.
-
Young Liao Jiyan went from being parachuted in by the powers that be to winning Best Newcomer in just one year.
He worked hard to act, worked hard to win awards.
No one could guess what the sharp-tongued, heavily backed rising actor was thinking:
Liao Jiyan: I want to breathe the same air as my wife.
Liao Jiyan: Wife, come cuddle me www
Later, on the day he handed over the contract to keep Qi Ruxu, the young man kept his face expressionless, though his hand trembled slightly.
Liao Jiyan: My wife won't love me anymore QAQ
Qi Ruxu signed calmly and looked up. "Which room am I staying in?"
Liao Jiyan: Something's not right.
Liao Jiyan: It must be because I'm panicking too much.
Liao Jiyan: I'm such a bastard. I don't deserve a wife. QAQ
In their barely maintained arrangement, Liao Jiyan appeared restrained and proper, but inside he was on the verge of falling apart, addicted to collecting Qi Ruxu's personal belongings.
Until one day...
He came home early and found Qi Ruxu leaning over his pillow, long lashes trembling, his face filled with secret delight.
Liao Jiyan: This can't be right.
Liao Jiyan: I'm the pervert here.
Liao Jiyan: Oh, right, my wife must be trying to wash my pillowcase.
Liao Jiyan: He loves me so much QAQ
-
Liao Jiyan had never considered one possibility:
Maybe the white rose on the branch hadn't been plucked.
Maybe desire had bent it down until it willingly brushed the tip of his nose.
