One sentence introduction
After chasing stars for five years, she discovered that her idol's biggest secret was hidden in her mother's belongings.
Story summary
Nineteen-year-old Lu Xinghe has been a star-chasing girl for five years. Her room is covered with posters of Lin Huaizhou, her playlist is full of his songs, and her Weibo account generates data for him every day.
Her mother, Shen Qingwan, has always been opposed to this - "What's the point of chasing stars?"
It wasn't until the day his mother died in a car accident that Lu Xinghe knew that the last interview his mother wanted to do before leaving home was none other than Lin Huaizhou.
The last entry in the memo on my mother's cell phone reads:
"Tonight I ask Lin Huaizhou: Who was that song written five years ago for?"
The song five years ago was Lin Huaizhou's debut song "Cake". It was also the song that Lu Xinghe fell in love with.
At that moment, Lu Xinghe realized that there was a story that she had no idea about between the idol she had been chasing for five years and her deceased mother.
In order to find the answer, Lu Xinghe approached Lin Huaizhou as a fan, but unexpectedly got involved in the mists of the entertainment industry. She discovered that her mother's death was not an accident, that there was unspeakable pain hidden behind Lin Huaizhou's silence, and that the song that made her fall in love with him turned out to be the farewell that her mother had spent half her life buying.
This is a story about chasing stars, but also a story about understanding mothers.
When the spotlight on the stage lit up, and when the old secrets were revealed one by one, Lu Xinghe finally understood——
The light she chased never only illuminated her idol's face, but also her mother's unspoken love and dreams when she was young.
