After Secret Marriage With The Queen of Silver Screen

After a car accident, Gu Qingtong regained her memories and realized she was the troublemaking female antagonist in a tragic romance novel.

Just then, Yan Chi—her ex-fiancé’s sister, a renowned actress—unexpectedly proposed a marriage alliance. In the original novel, Yan Chi was an untouchable ice queen, indifferent to everyone.

I won’t disturb your life or career." Yan Chi’s gaze lingered on the tear mole at the corner of Gu Qingtong’s eye before replying indifferently, as always. What Gu Qingtong didn’t know was that those eyes had haunted Yan Chi’s dreams countless times—glistening tears trailing down that mole, breathtakingly delicate. Every "coincidence" was merely a calculated move by someone determined. *** News of A-list actress Yan Chi and a nobody, Gu Qingtong, joining a celebrity dating show topped trending topics.
