Story Blurb

Xu Yishan is the vicious supporting female character in a novel. She comes from a wealthy family and is spoiled and willful. As the former girlfriend of the male lead, Lu Zeqing, she eventually ends up being mocked by everyone.

To avoid the fate awaiting her in the original story, Xu Yishan immediately cuts ties and walks away. A vicious supporting character? Whoever wants the role can have it. Xu Yishan absolutely refuses!

But of course, she can't just escape the plot. Through a twist of fate, she ends up on the path of the original storyline anyway.

With the principle of avoiding trouble wherever possible,

for years Xu Yishan watched Lu Zeqing from afar. In his perfectly pressed suit, with his aloof yet gentle features, he stood in the spotlight, firmly occupying center stage. Everyone in the industry thought highly of him. To avoid any suspicion, she never went out of her way to get noticed.

They were clearly in the same circle, yet somehow they never ran into each other.

Until... they met again.

Xu Yishan was a has-been actress on the verge of leaving the industry, dogged by one scandal after another. Lu Zeqing was a wealthy, award-winning actor who had inherited the family business and found success in film, television, and business.

And yet they reunited on a farming variety show.

She addressed him respectfully: "Teacher Lu."

He was just as formal, his unfamiliar eyes seeming to say they barely knew each other.

His sharp suit, the confidence of a rising business tycoon, and the calculation and control in his eyes were all unfamiliar to her.

Maybe this was for the best. Xu Yishan breathed a sigh of relief, though her heart was still tightly knotted.

His Adam's apple bobbed. His voice remained calm. They were the most familiar strangers, after all.

Composed and dignified: that's always been Lu Zeqing's first impression on people. Distant and aloof: that's his second.

He had only ever shown his tender, doting side to Xu Yishan. But Xu Yishan was heartless. Without any reason or explanation, she'd resolutely broken up with him and abandoned him.

He wouldn't let her off easily, Lu Zeqing thought.

After going to great lengths to see her again, he found that she was still as pampered and softhearted as ever. But why was she so cruel only to him?

Lu Zeqing forcefully suppressed his urge to act and pretended to be indifferent, but his longing for her continued to grow, every moment of every day.

He couldn't bear to make her do dirty or tiring work. His A-Shan deserved to be beautiful and happy, spoiled and a little fussy. He couldn't bring himself to be cruel to her, either.

After the show aired, attentive viewers posted a series of screenshots.

[I bet Xu Yishan and Lu Zeqing have something going on. I'm shipping them!]

[I think Xu Yishan and Gu Qiong are obviously a better couple, okay?]

Lu Zeqing grabbed Xu Yishan, who was standing beside him, completely unaware of what was happening. He didn't say a word, but his actions spoke volumes.

Xu Yishan looked at the hickey on her neck and her swollen lips. She was both sulky and angry.

"What am I supposed to do later? Look what you've done!"

Seeing the anger in Xu Yishan's eyes, Lu Zeqing finally felt guilty. He placed his broad palm on her slender waist and gently rubbed it.

Lu Zeqing, who had never once backed down, lowered his head again.

"When are you going to make us public, A-Shan? I'm getting a little jealous."

Somehow, news of their past relationship suddenly got dug up. Lu Zeqing looked at Xu Yishan, who had just fallen asleep beside him, and kissed her forehead, his heart full of love and longing.

The internet, however, exploded, all because of the two words Lu Zeqing posted:

"My one true love." The photo showed their hands clasped together.
