Thanks to his handsome looks and his editor’s carefully crafted image, 44-year-old bestselling author Zheng Han has made a comeback over the past decade as an online celebrity author.
Although becoming an internet sensation has brought Zheng Han fame and fortune, and his signature “Ruolan” series has gone through edition after edition and earned him a fortune, he can’t feel happy about any of it. He has come to hate Qiao Ruolan, the heroine in his books, who has been shaped by readers’ opinions.
So in his latest book, Zheng Han “kills” Qiao Ruolan. After finishing the signing event for the new book, Zheng Han decides to stop paying attention to readers’ reactions as he used to. He takes his latest manuscript, Out on the Road, a book that’s destined never to become a bestseller, and sets off on a spontaneous trip.
But Zheng Han’s impulsive trip gets him into unexpected trouble. In a blizzard, he gets into a car accident in the remote mountains and is rescued by a reclusive woman. This mercurial, short-tempered woman claims to be Zheng Han’s “number one fan.” When she discovers that Zheng Han has killed Qiao Ruolan in the latest “Ruolan” book, she flies into a rage. She torments the badly injured Zheng Han in every way and forces him to write another book, Ruolan Reborn. But after spending day and night with this woman, Zheng Han, unable to move freely and addicted to his medication, understands all too well that the day Ruolan is reborn will be the day he meets his end...
