On November 10, 2020, leading actress Tan Ruo suddenly died on set due to exhaustion from working days without sleep to keep up with the shooting schedule.
That night, Tan Ruo's passing was confirmed by her management agency.
As soon as the news came out, the systems of all major social media platforms were paralyzed due to the incident.

...
What the public did not know amidst their immense grief was that Tan Ruo, declared dead by them, was at this moment bored out of her mind, blowing bubbles inside an infant warmer.
That's right, she, Hu Han San, has come back again!
Heaven knows how relieved Tan Ruo was when she opened her eyes after suddenly dying on set to find herself still alive, she almost laughed out loud thrice to the sky.
She knew it, it was just from pulling a couple of all-nighters, just going a couple days without sleep, just fainting from the emotional intensity of shooting fight scenes and crying scenes back-to-back in order to keep up. How could she have just dropped dead?
Of course, every crisis survived leads to new opportunities. This time, she really has to treasure her life and refrain from running herself ragged without rest. She needs to remember to eat on time. Once her health is back, she can start arranging...
Hmm?
Wait a minute, what's with these little arms and legs?
Hmm?
Wait another minute, why is Ji Mochen here?
What? She has become his and Ling Chujin's daughter?
Damn it!
Afterward, Tan Ruo found out that the body she was in belonged to the little one who was extremely weak due to premature birth, still inside an infant warmer after half a month from delivery.
The timing of Tan Ruo dying and coming back to life coincided exactly with this little one just receiving emergency treatment for milk aspiration choking.
That day, after attending Tan Ruo's funeral, Ji Mochen received the news of his baby daughter being sent to the emergency room. One can imagine how panic-stricken he was.
Without even staying for the rest of Tan Ruo's funeral, he rushed back to the hospital. That day, the man wore protective clothing as he waited anxiously outside his daughter's ward, eyes red.
In the next few days, while Ling Chujin would be at confinement, Tan Ruo in this body still needed to be under observation in the infant warmer for a week.
As such, caring for his daughter became Ji Mochen's responsibility.
From then on, Ji Mochen was as if chained to the infant warmer after nearly losing his beloved daughter.
Thus, every time after Tan Ruo had eaten her fill and slept, just as she was about to eat again after waking, she would see this tall man ogling her like a pervert.
A creeped out Tan Ruo: ...Archenemy, don't be like this, you're scaring me.
That's right.
Tan Ruo and Ji Mochen were archenemies in life. One a leading actress, the other a popular idol, they were people who should not have crossed paths. Yet somehow, they formed a grudge on a romance reality show.
Why?
It was nothing actually. She just found the male guests on there rather sleazy, hurting her eyes, so she critiqued them a few times. Then somehow Ji Mochen's wires got crossed and he suddenly said, "Teacher Tan does not have a partner, so she probably cannot relate to the subtle push and pull between smitten men and women."
He had actually just announced his own relationship at the time, so he wanted to show off a bit. But this statement was clearly mocking Tan Ruo for having been single for over 20 years!
How could Tan Ruo stand it? She immediately retorted, "Of course, unlike Ji the Heavenly King, having been through thousands of flowers, the speed of changing girlfriends matching that of a rocket launch."
Their skirmish over soft thorns, once aired, set off mutual attacks between their fan bases. One side calling the other's idol a modern-day Casanova oil tycoon, while the other called the opponent's side a pretentious fraud with a messy private life.
As a result, the hard-won girlfriend that the esteemed Heavenly King had finally pursued, over 20 years of being single, was torn apart to the point of breaking up. The public consensus was that it was due to Tan Ruo's words that angered his girlfriend into the split.
However, Tan Ruo heard from her gossip-prone manager that the main reason for the breakup was that Ji Mochen's girlfriend was actually...the head of Tan Ruo's fan club!
So the slag-flinging from both sides directly provoked the anger of this young lady, especially those nasty curses towards her idol from the Heavenly King's fans.
Seeing fans of the other camp curse her own idol like that, plus the root cause being her own boyfriend, the girl was furious. Then, at that critical juncture, Ji Mochen was photographed with another girl, and that was the last straw that made her break up with him outright.
Pitiful Ji Mochen, such an esteemed Heavenly King, single for over 20 years, finally got back together with his first love after tremendous effort, now forced onto the road of chasing his wife again.
From then on, the two had completely fallen out, tearing from prestigious endorsements down to which projects to pick.
Right after she releases a film, his album promptly follows. Right after his album sales break records, her movie then wins the box office crown.
Despite their reputations as aloof sovereigns rarely crossing paths, gossip about them still continuously floods the streets.
And now somehow, two people who had torn at each other to the point of bloodshed over resources have become family?
There's a saying that daughters are like warm cotton-padded jackets—letting her become his archenemy's beloved cotton-padded jacket?
Thinking of this, Tan Ruo sneered inwardly.
Fine! A cotton jacket it is. An ultra-plush midsummer heavy cotton jacket sounds pretty good too!
Ji Mochen, having me is your blessing. Just you wait for this old lady... ZZZzzz~
Before she could finish her threat, the exhausted Tan Ruo in the incubator sunk into deep slumber.
Not long after, Ji Mochen was back crouching by the incubator, a foolish grin on his face.
