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.
"You and Jace know each other?" Jiang Muye was shocked.
Ning Xi had just entered the industry for a short time. Even if it were the most famous artiste in the country right now, there was no way they would know Jace.
"How could I know him? I only met him when I went for the audition, but we kind of hit it off when we chatted and he decided on my character there and then," said Ning Xi.
"Audition? Ahh, right, I haven't asked you what's your role yet!" Jiang Muye exclaimed.
"Assassin," retorted Ning Xi.
Jiang Muye instantly gaped in shock. "Don't tell me that you're playing the female lead, Anna?"
Ning Xi expected that Jiang Muye would react like this. She held her chin with a hazy look in her eyes. "I felt like I was dreaming too... I heard that they had initially decided on Lilian internally..."
Jiang Muye did not know what to say anymore.
