[Love at first sight / Love that grows with time, marriage before love / Passion and devotion]
Qi Ci always thought she had transmigrated to an era far removed from the one she had known, until He Yanshu's high-profile broken engagement became the talk of the town. Only then did she realize she had transmigrated into a novel she had once followed with all her heart.
In the novel, the female lead's married life in her previous life had gone poorly, and she and the man at her side had ended up trading cruel words and going their separate ways.
Reborn into a new life, she decided to give up on one tree and turn instead to a whole forest.
And Wen Youyi, the other female lead who had grown up by He Yanshu's side, was undoubtedly one of the trees in that vast forest, right at the beginning, before He Yanshu had realized her own feelings.
Then, after nearly a million words of He Yanshu's journey to understand her heart, she finally fell for Wen Youyi, who had silently stayed by her side. The two shared a smile, bringing the story to an ending that seemed happy but was actually more open-ended.
After sorting out the whole story, Qi Ci took just one night to think it over. The next day, she promptly went to propose!
No other reason: she was Wen Youyi's devoted superfan. She would set the mountain ablaze for Wen Youyi, and keep her as the only tree in her forest.
Wen Youyi received an inexplicable message from her mother telling her to wash up... no, to get cleaned up and ready for a blind date.
Was her mother serious? She hadn't even graduated yet. She was in the prime of her youth! Why was she being sent on a blind date?!
Unable to withstand her mother's bombardment, Wen Youyi went to meet her date. Seeing the other woman's face as cold as a glacier, she awkwardly tried to leave: Sorry, I've come to the wrong place. I forgot to turn off the stove at home, and there's soup simmering on it. The three excuses came one after another.
Wen Youyi later: Honey, I'm sorry. I actually can't cook. Please keep me, boohoo~
Reborn female lead: Hey, wait. What happened to my childhood friend?
Qi Ci & Wen Youyi
Of all the people in the world, you were the one sent to me.
Theme: Have the courage to pursue love.
