Wang Yu Wen. She's acting, but she's also not acting. Lin Huan Er is Wang Yu Wen. She's 90% of the drama. Chen Xing Xu is ~ 60%. Math doesn't add up because nearly all his scenes have her. [Top | Skip »]

Romcom. This is a rom-COM. The FL enters a novel where she has to make the ML fall in love with her to escape. Simple enough. Except she starts falling for him too. Now the problem isn’t whether he’ll reach 100% love… it’s whether she actually wants him to. [Top | Skip »]
