One is an ambitious actress who dreams of starring in showbiz. The other is an up-and-coming fashion designer known as “a gentle flower” due to her delicate beauty.
One sees through the cool facade to sense the thirst for success, the other recognizes the desire for something real behind the grand ambition. When one advances, like the wind brushing a rose, the other retreats, like a moonbeam on the edge of her skirt. Their back and forth is a seductive dance taken to the limit. Until finally she becomes the rose that blooms in her blood, and they reach the pinnacle of success together.
Tang Wanting: “I will pluck the moon out of the sky for you.”
Shang Yi: “You are the moon I want.”
