Cast
editMain
edit- Dilraba Dilmurat[5] as Ling Ling Qi
- An ordinary girl who is kind and helpful. She is Bo Hai's diehard fangirl. However, her low IQ and self-esteem has affected her life, hindering her career and preventing her from achieving her dreams. Although she has studied to be a veterinarian, she applied to Flower Plus three times (once per year) just so she could be with her idol. Despite Zhou Xin Yan's sabotage on her third try, she manages to get into Flower Plus as a salesperson instead of a florist. She later finds out that Bo Hai has a different personality and not like the one in her dreams. However, they manage to get closer after Ling Ling Qi discovers his secret. After she helps him through one of Wen Guang Qi's schemes and displays her skills at flower arrangement, she was promoted to a florist. She later betrays Bo Hai because she thought the betrayal would save him and his company from Liu Ying Jie/William and Mo Nan's schemes.
- Deng Lun[6] as Bo Hai
- A florist, and President of Flower Plus company. He has high IQ but low EQ. He has pyrophobia after being traumatized by a fire in his childhood, which also causes his temporary colorblindness. He was able to finally overcome this weakness with the help of Ling Ling Qi.
