Background / History

An Ke'er first appears in person when she accompanies her maternal grandfather, Su Yao, to Lin Xuan's village. She had previously been known to Lin Xuan and his audience by her livestream username, Ink Plum Like Painting. Lin Xuan is surprised to learn that the frequent viewer is Su Yao's granddaughter and compliments her appearance; she responds with shy pride. 110

Although raised in a wealthy city family, An Ke'er expresses a genuine wish to live simply in the countryside with someone she loves—cultivating land, planting fruit trees, and exploring the mountains. During her first stay at Lin Xuan's home, she grows close to both him and his animals, helps feed the Peacock Pheasants, and remains after Su Yao returns home. 113 125

She becomes involved in Lin Xuan's effort to create stable fruit-sales channels for the village. Identifying her family's business as Hongyi Group, she promises that its channels can support long-term cooperation if the village maintains a stable supply. After returning home, she asks her parents to help with the project. 127 143 154

Her feelings for Lin Xuan develop from shyness and private romantic thoughts into direct action. She kisses him at the train station when leaving the village, later initiates another visit despite the distance, and helps make their mutual feelings unmistakable. Lin Xuan publicly confirms that they are boyfriend and girlfriend during a livestream. 155 215 225

An Ke'er accompanies Lin Xuan through mountain outings and village life, supports him while he searches for tea trees to give her father, and stands by him despite her father's initial disapproval. Lin Xuan eventually visits her family, where Su Yao and An Ke'er's mother support the relationship while An Hongxin gradually accepts it. 226 249 253 255

After An Ke'er becomes pregnant with twins, both families negotiate the couple's marriage. Her father agrees on conditions including a city home with her name included and a grand wedding. An Ke'er and Lin Xuan marry after the New Year, and she later gives birth to a son and a daughter. 316 317 323 326 329
