Main story complete
Yi Jiu was young and beautiful, a sunny, rebellious new top-tier star and a famously hard-working alpha in the entertainment industry. She had topped the most eligible single celebrity list year after year, except that her eyesight was poor.
No one knew that Yi Jiu had been secretly married for three years. Her wife was He Jingxin, acting president of the Qingmu Group: an aloof, noble, stunning, and chaste omega with countless admirers. Yi Jiu obeyed He Jingxin in everything and trusted her completely.
One day, Yi Jiu saw an announcement that He Jingxin would be on the first season of a dating show.
Yi Jiu said, "Sis, why are you going on that dating show?"
He Jingxin said, "Little one, this is my job."
Then one day, she received a call from the hospital informing her that her father had died. She accidentally overheard someone speaking to He Jingxin on a video call. "That old man Yi is dead, so he can't threaten you anymore. You finally don't have to pretend to play house with that blind little girl. She's a pretty good suppressant."
So He Jingxin had never felt anything for her. She had even laughed at her behind her back. Yi Jiu really was blind and foolish, completely lovesick.
He Jingxin was the He family's second daughter, adored by everyone from childhood. There was no love at first sight. It had all been an act. The one who took it seriously was the one who lost.
On their wedding anniversary, they met again. They were celebrating He Jingxin becoming president of the Qingmu Group. Yi Jiu's new look stunned everyone, and she remained the top-tier star and MVP of Yue Shang Entertainment, a subsidiary of the Qingmu Group.
A performance of "Autumn Whispers" stunned the crowd.
He Jingxin brought Yi Jiu to her office, intending to give her a wedding anniversary gift. Yi Jiu, however, handed He Jingxin divorce papers and said casually, "This is my gift to President He on taking office."
He Jingxin's smile froze. She was still clutching the keys to an Audi Skypher, her hand suspended in midair. With a woman's pride, she said coolly, "Little one, tear those up and come home obediently. I'll pretend this was a joke."
"President He, I'm serious. Let's get divorced."
"Yi Jiu, so that's all your love amounts to."
On a day of swirling snow, the sunny, rebellious top-tier star gave her gentleness, thoughtfulness, and steady emotions to someone else, then passed by He Jingxin. He Jingxin gazed at the star and suddenly realized that her exclusive devotion had been the light she could least bear to lose, the angel who had helped her through the hardest times in her life.
Yi Jiu was announced as a participant in the second season of the dating show.
He Jingxin's eyes reddened as she pleaded, "Jiujiu, could you please not go on the dating show?"
Yi Jiu looked confused. "This is my job."
She regretted everything. She watched the top-tier star appear on the dating show as rumor after rumor and trending topics flooded in, pushing her to the top of the headlines.
She panicked... She regretted it...
