[Blurb]
Everyone knows Li Nian has a sworn enemy named Xie Huaiyu.
They met when they were both obscure nobodies in the entertainment industry and agreed to struggle their way up together. But the day after they swore brotherhood, Xie Huaiyu shot to fame thanks to a special appearance in a drama.
Li Nian was surprised. Li Nian congratulated him. Li Nian's calls went unanswered.
She never expected people's fickleness to come so quickly. Unwilling to be outdone, Li Nian immediately blocked him and deleted his contact.
From then on, she worked hard. With her stunning looks and acting skills honed over many years, she won the Best Newcomer award and became one of the hottest actresses in the industry.
Before long, everyone in and out of the industry knew that this rising star had one special condition for taking roles, variety shows, and advertising jobs: she would absolutely never appear on camera alongside Xie Huaiyu.
Li Nian hated Xie Huaiyu, and Xie Huaiyu felt the same way.
Whenever he heard that Li Nian would be at an event, he would turn around and leave without a word, even if they had no scenes together and even if breaking the contract meant paying a staggering penalty.
The two became the entertainment industry's first openly acknowledged sworn enemies.
Just as Li Nian thought she and Xie Huaiyu would remain strangers forever, an unexpected medical report revealed:
She, Li Nian, was only twenty-six, had a terminal illness, and had just three months to live.
Li Nian thought fate was blind. Instead of messing with the traitorous Xie Huaiyu, it had decided to mess with her.
Just as Li Nian was preparing to put her affairs in order and enjoy the rest of her life, a certain "Cuddle Up" System appeared, claiming it could help her live for a few more years. The price was that...
She had to get close to Xie Huaiyu and draw on the so-called energy factors in his body to keep herself alive.
"..."
Sometimes Li Nian really thought she might as well just die.
As it happened, her assistant made a careless mistake and handed her the script for a dating reality show featuring Xie Huaiyu.
The next day, the trending topics exploded.
#Li Nian Xie Huaiyu Dating Show#
#Sworn Enemies Meet on a Dating Show#
#Xie Huaiyu Accepts Dating Show Invitation#
Wait, what?!
Li Nian nearly thought she was seeing things, but after refreshing the page more than ten times, the number-one trending topic was still about Xie Huaiyu accepting the invitation.
Li Nian felt her vision go black again and again.
For the sake of her life, Li Nian had to go, even though she didn't want to. But why hadn't Xie Huaiyu turned around and left this time?
