On her first day at her new school, Zhou Ningchu met Cheng Sier, the pure and beautiful campus belle.
Cheng Sier offered to help carry her heavy suitcase upstairs and welcomed her to the school.
Her classmates told her that Cheng Sier was the envy of every girl: she came from a good family, was beautiful and talented, and had an incredibly handsome childhood friend as her boyfriend.
Zhou Ningchu agreed.
After all, some people are so outstanding that all you can do is envy them, not feel jealous.
As a small-town girl who had never seen much of the world, Zhou Ningchu felt lucky just to be friends with Cheng Sier. She quietly stayed by her side, watching her shine, watching her stand beside her boyfriend, Lu Yi'an. Together they looked just like the leads in a romantic, picture-perfect idol drama.
Unfortunately, life is a sly designer. Zhou Ningchu never got to see the princess in her heart end up happily with her prince.
That accident tore the perfect couple apart.
Ten years later, Zhou Ningchu was the sole bridesmaid at Cheng Sier's wedding. The ceremony was grand, but the bride's side had only a handful of guests.
After the wedding, a tall, lonely figure stood outside the hotel for a long time.
Zhou Ningchu recognized him as the campus heartthrob from back then. He looked every bit the successful professional now, but his expression was desolate, and his eyes were red.
"How was the bride?" he asked quietly.
Zhou Ningchu answered honestly, "She was beautiful."
As if deliberately trying to hurt him, she added, "The groom was handsome too. They looked perfect together."
"Lu Yi'an, you came back too late."
PS: The blurb is written from a CP fan's perspective, and the story begins from that angle too, but the main text primarily follows the male and female leads' perspectives.
