After five years, Ning Xi returned to the place that had pushed her away — home. With a sister who turned her parents against her and made her childhood sweetheart betray her, the odds seemed grey. However, five years abroad had changed her, and she came home to fulfil her childhood dream of becoming an actress. Despite her evil sister still out to get her, tables will be turned. One day, after falling into one of her sister's schemes, she saves an adorable kid and found herself staying at his house to help him come out of his shell. Slowly, his father Lu Tingxiao began falling for her. This was before they realised how their lives had been intertwined all this while without their knowledge.
At this moment, Ning Xi's phone rang.
Coincidentally, it was Guo Qisheng.
Ning Xi quickly picked up. "Hello, Director Guo! I was just discussing the script you sent over with Sis Zhizhi, and then you called!"
"Hey, Ning Xi, I was going to tell you something about it too. Um...did you...," Guo Qisheng sounded hesitant, wavering momentarily before asking, "Ning Xi, did you offend anyone recently?"
When she heard this, Ning Xi was stunned. "No, why would you ask that?"
Guo Qisheng sighed, "I've just met a few investors, and a few of them seemed worried that I'll be casting you. They said that the Lu Corporation has put out an order to shut you out, so they're worried that casting you would bring trouble..."
"Cough, cough!" Ning Xi almost choked on her own saliva. "Director Guo, what are you saying? Who's put out an order to shut me out? The Lu Corporation?"
When she heard Ning Xi's words, Ling Zhizhi's expression changed.
