On the night Mai Jiansen became an overnight sensation, Song Li's gift to him was a phone call to break up.

At the time, he was standing outside the conference room at his agency. Before him, the bleak whiteness of Jianglin's gloomy sky made him gradually grow dizzy. He closed his eyes, still reeling from the shock of that phone call.

When he came to his senses, he couldn't even attend the meeting. He hurried past the crowd of fans waiting outside the building and rushed to Song Li's home. But when he opened the door, all that remained was lifeless, empty furniture and a note the housekeeper had left him out of pity.

He had once thought he was incredibly lucky: this well-known screenwriter, whom he had secretly loved for two years, discovered him and made him a top-tier star. But he never imagined she would dump him at the height of his fame without even giving him a reason for the breakup.

He humbly begged her to get back together, only to be blocked everywhere.

The rain that poured down over Jianglin that night matched the tears he shed, falling without pause until morning. From then on, his personality changed completely. Once sunny and cheerful in public, and gentle and attentive in private, he became a cold, aloof heartthrob who spoke as little as possible.

A year later, she returned with a new script. She invited every male actor in and outside the industry to audition for the lead role, but deliberately skipped over him.

[The final casting session]

Just as she was about to announce the final choice, someone pushed open the frosted glass door of the audition room. It scraped across the floor with a shrill squeal.

Everyone was drawn to the intrusion and turned to look toward the doorway.

A man dressed casually in a crisp white shirt and jeans stepped into the audition room, his pace both bold and tentative.

"Get out." Song Li, seated at the head of the table, didn't even look up. Her voice was cold and resolute.

"I want to stay by your side."

"In what capacity?"

"Any capacity."

"I still need a dog."

"All right." His voice was firm, while her eyes filled with panic.
