“I told you not to steal anything. It’s illegal!” I frowned at him.

“I don’t get why Earthlings can’t just take whatever they want. It’s produced on your planet, right?”

“Ugh, right—but we have a money system to follow. We don’t just take things without permission!” I said, snatching it back from his hand.

“Hm? But… you stole my heart. Is that legal?” he said, leaning closer with a mischievous smirk.

I pushed him back, my cheeks flushing bright red. “Idiot! Where did you even learn that from?!”

“Oh… it was on that thing—TV. The girl in it didn’t seem to mind when the guy said it. Why are you mad?”

All Ling Yunhua ever wanted… was him—her childhood friend, her first love.

After years of silently carrying her feelings for Tang Shixiu, Yunhua finally finds the courage to confess. But after all the mixed signals and lingering hope, he rejects her—coldly, without hesitation—shattering the only dream she ever held close.

Devastated and on the edge of giving up on everything… that’s when he appears—like an angel fallen from the stars.

A man from beyond the galaxy crosses paths with Yunhua at her lowest point. From a race that erased emotions long ago, he begins to feel something foreign… something human. Something like love.

But danger closes in fast.

The research organization Yunhua works for—and the government—are secretly hunting him down after discovering that his alien DNA holds the power to cure any disease. Determined to protect him, Yunhua makes a dangerous choice: she hides him under the lie of being her boyfriend.

Now they live together.

A clueless, awkward alien learning to feel… and a girl torn between duty and the growing storm in her heart.

How long can she keep him hidden in a world desperate to dissect him?

And when the time comes for him to return to the stars…
will she be able to let him go?
