Nan Xin has a sect, and the sect has an orphanage.
She entered showbiz to make big money and pay for the orphanage children's medical treatment.
But after three years in the industry, she hadn't made big money and had even beaten up an executive.
Just as Nan Xin was considering going home to inherit the sect and getting her senior brothers to make money, she learned that her family had arranged a childhood engagement for her.
And the other party was none other than Jiang Chen, a newly crowned Best Actor! He's steady, considerate, rich, and kindhearted!
Nan Xin seriously considered her chances of abducting him... no, successfully pursuing him. She even looked up Jiang Chen's ideal girlfriend type.
She immediately declared, "Great, help me up. I can keep fighting!"
Her pursuit plan: Start by appearing on the same variety show as Jiang Chen...
Her career plan: Get her troublesome former boss sent to prison, work hard to get famous, and bring her senior brothers into showbiz!

When Jiang Chen learned that his family had arranged a childhood engagement for him, he refused at first. On the very first night of the variety show, he even told Nan Xin he wanted to call it off.
But Nan Xin didn't give up. Instead, she suggested they spend some time together before deciding.
Having missed his chance to refuse her right away, Jiang Chen said, "Nan Xin, I'll agree to your suggestion, but don't get your hopes up."
Later, after putting off calling off the engagement night after night, Jiang Chen decided that when Nan Xin confessed, he would agree to be together.
But he never expected that Nan Xin had pursued him for his kindness and money!
Jiang Chen then decided that when Nan Xin confessed, he would make her wait one extra day before saying yes. He even acted cold toward her for two days.
He still didn't see it coming when Nan Xin hit him with her ultimate move. He had no choice but to go out and intercept her. "Xin Xin, I think this childhood engagement is great. We should obey our elders' wishes."
