The cool, aloof movie queen with a white moonlight in her heart vs. the carefree young heir
[Equal matches | Each has met their match | The playboy reforms]
01.
Qing Zhi is an entertainment-industry top-tier star, a leading actress who reached the pinnacle as soon as she debuted. In five years, she swept every major Best Actress award, becoming the one and only movie queen in the hearts of millions of fans.
Sheng Xun is the leading figure among Beilan’s elite, a notorious playboy from a wealthy family, carefree and debonair, with a reputation as a rake who loves to toy with people’s feelings.
One is adored by the masses beneath the flashbulbs.
The other indulges in power and pleasure amid the glittering nightlife.
They belong to two different worlds and should never have crossed paths.
Until a brand event held by the Sheng family.
Qing Zhi, the brand ambassador, stood languidly at the front of the stage in a red mermaid gown. Even beneath the high-frame-rate cameras, her beauty remained striking and cool.
Sheng Xun arrived late, causing a commotion.
The disturbance drew a cool glance from the beauty onstage.
Their eyes met. Under the bright lights, he seemed momentarily dazzled.
Seeing him stop, someone beside him eagerly offered him a cigarette and teased, "Well, Young Master Sheng, did you come just for the great movie queen Qing Zhi? Interested?"
Sheng Xun held the cigarette between his fingers, his gaze unreadable as he watched her graceful figure. He smiled faintly. "She seems like quite a challenge."
Everyone understood: the young master was looking for a new game.
But no one expected that this time, he would be the one who got caught up in it.

A few months later, #QingZhiAnnouncesHerRelationship# exploded across the trending lists.
The accompanying photo showed her kissing Sheng Xun late at night, pressed against a Maybach.
As netizens went wild, they mourned that even the movie queen was no different, easily played by a rich playboy.
But then another video quickly swept across the internet:
A torrential rainy night, outside a hotel.
Sheng Xun blocked Qing Zhi’s way. She looked at the soaked, disheveled man with indifference. "Let’s break up."
At her words, the usually arrogant man let go of his pride. He suddenly seized her slender wrist and pulled her into his arms.
His eyes were red, his shoulders trembling. His voice strained with resentment and hurt as he demanded, word by word:
"What gives you the right to break up with me?"
"Qing Zhi, am I really not worthy of even a little genuine affection?"
