You and the Starlight Are Both My Destination

At eighteen, Shen Nianchu returned to the entertainment industry as a former child star, only to find that the world she once knew had changed beyond recognition. Her father went bankrupt and her family fell apart, leaving her no choice but to sign with an obscure little agency and start from scratch. Her childhood sweetheart, Gu Shi'an, had become the center of a top-tier star boy band. When they reunited on a variety show, he pretended not to know her, but she recognized him at a glance. In front of the cameras, he was a cool, aloof idol; behind them, he quietly shielded her from a concerted assault by powerful investors. A publicity stunt pairing them on the show forced them to play along, but their act turned real as they rediscovered the understanding they had shared as children. When the scandals and old grudges came to light, she realized he had never forgotten their promise to stand together at the center of the stage.
