A high budget martial arts drama called “Magnificent” has taken the summer by storm. Gu Chong, a C-list actress who plays Yan Ruyu in the drama, finally skyrockets to fame in the entertainment industry after years of hard work.

At the celebration banquet for “Magnificent” on August 26th, she meets Lin Shangci, the screenwriter she’s been curious about for a long time. She appears more ordinary and pure than she imagined, like an observer floating above the world, or flitting at its edges…

The usually reclusive Lin Shangci finds herself awkwardly seeking help from her mentor and junior when faced with actors coming to toast her. What seemed like a brief encounter over a drink turns into a love story bound by the red thread of fate.

After the banquet, Lin Shangci returns home, only to find her phone bombarded with messages from a gossip group. A group member shouts, “Gu Chong’s car exploded right in front of me, and everyone inside is dead!”

The ticking seconds devour the present until the chime of midnight sounds. Lin Shangci falls asleep, dreamless, until her alarm wakes her in the morning. As she opens her eyes, she sees the date on her phone screen: July 24th. She had returned.

A tale of the reclusive screenwriter Lin Shangci and the C-list actress Gu Chong.
