At 22, Mu Xingchen practiced dancing for an audition in the abandoned dance studio of her agency, Hongsheng. Qin Jing was her only audience.

Later, she won the Best Actress crown and gained tens of thousands of fans, but the familiar figure was the only one missing from the crowd.

Three years after they broke up, Mu Xingchen saw the cover of Qin Jing's new album. The poster showed a man and woman smiling at each other. She went home and drank herself into a stupor.

After a night of drinking, she decided to put a definitive end in her heart to this first love she could never forget.

At 26, they were invited to the same gala.

They unexpectedly ran into each other in a crowded hallway. Mu Xingchen spoke first, her face expressionless. “Good to see you, Mr. Qin.”

Late that night, a familiar number called her phone. She hesitated before answering. The person on the other end was quite drunk, his tone cautious and restrained. “Why are you so unwilling to love me?”

Soon, they ran into each other again on a variety show.

The director sensed something was up and probed, “Do you two know each other?”

“We don't.”

“We do.”

Mu Xingchen smiled faintly to hide her awkwardness. “We used to be with the same agency, but we weren't close.”

During the final recording of the show, Qin Jing tricked her into getting on a Ferris wheel away from the cameras.

The man across from her wore a sharp suit, and the boyish awkwardness of his college days had long since faded. She was trapped in his arms, kissed until she could barely breathe.

“We aren't close? Hmm?”

Their breaths mingled, their lips and teeth entwined. In a hazy daze, she vaguely heard his tender murmur.

“Mu Xingchen, tell me you love me.”

“Qin Jing,

this glass is to our ordinary, insignificant days of the past,

to our brilliant twenty-six-year-old selves today.

Congratulations to us both, for reaching the future we once dreamed of every day, becoming wildly famous and making our dreams come true.”

After one great drunken night, it was time to truly start over.

I A few things to know:
