My Online Crush Turned Out to Be Me

[Updates six days a week, no update on Wednesdays]

A prodigy takes on the entertainment industry, only to crash and burn?

You can go anywhere with a good grasp of math and science, until you meet him?

*

Qu Chuanlan got into Beiqing University at 14 and went to France for her doctorate at 18. Her life had been smooth sailing,

until she finally hit a wall at the forefront of mathematics at 21.

After three months of tearing her hair out, she was on the verge of a breakdown.

Advisor: Take some time to relax completely. When you come back, you might figure it out. C'est la vie.

So Qu Chuanlan packed her bags and set off to wander.

Casting director: We urgently need a girl-next-door type for a talent show. Apply now!

Qu Chuanlan: Not interested. I'm not going.

Casting director: But your idol Lin Shangyu is on the show...

Qu Chuanlan: I'm in! I'm in!! I'm in!!! How do I sign up? Waiting for an answer, urgent.

Top-tier star Lin Shangyu is a singer-songwriter whose albums have each sold over a hundred million copies and whose tours sell out every venue...

He has an online friend no one knows about.

How little does anyone know?

So little that even the friend herself thinks he's a kind, understanding big sister.

Lin Shangyu thinks his online friend is bright and hardworking, seems clever, and, best of all, has great taste: she likes him.

One day, Lin Shangyu tentatively asks:

Lin Shangyu: If your idol wanted to, would you get together with him right away?

Qu Chuanlan: He's my idol, after all. It's probably best to leave him up on his pedestal~ (Thinking: Sob, my idol is as far away as a star in the sky. I can't let myself fantasize about him at all!)

Lin Shangyu: So that's how fans think. (Thinking: Sure enough, everyone only loves the glamorous side of me... TAT)

Memory Paradox

She has amnesia.

Two years ago, a necessary brain surgery took away every one of her memories.

Fortunately, before losing her memory, she had prepared thoroughly for the amnesia she knew was coming.

She adapted almost immediately and slipped right back into her old life and work, so smoothly it was as if the amnesia had never happened.

But two years later, just when she thought that little episode was well behind her, she began having the same dream again and again.

In the dream, it seemed she wanted to kill someone.

And that person appeared to be... her ex-boyfriend?

He ran away.

Two years ago, news that the founder and CEO of Ningjian Tech had cashed out and moved abroad spread like wildfire.

The news caused a massive sell-off in Ningjian Tech, which had gone public less than a year earlier, and the stock nearly fell below its issue price.

Though the company later flourished and its stock soared, he never appeared in public again.

People speculated endlessly.

Some said he had a serious illness and was lying in the ICU.

Some said he had offended someone and was afraid to return to the country.

And one rumor, shared with a mixture of grief and schadenfreude, claimed

that he was drowning in heartbreak, living like a widower!

If you lost your memory one day,

would you still be you?

Would your beloved still be your beloved?
