Lost in Love stars Chen Xiao and Du Juan as people who cheat on their respective partners and get married to each other in the name of true love.

Du Juan (Wine War) plays an interior designer who believes in fairy tale romances, even though her own marriage is on the verge of falling apart. On a trip to Paris, she meets and falls head-over-heels in love with a violinist, played by Chen Xiao (Nothing Gold Can Stay).
Shadowing Your Heart 如影隨心 (lit.) is based on the eponymous novel by reporter and author An Dun, and tells of the romance between a talented violinist (Chen Xiao) and interior designer (Du Juan). The pair get married almost immediately after meeting each other, though they soon find out that a passionate romance isn’t enough to keep a marriage going.

Joe Chen, meanwhile, brings a little more sunlight into her look for L’Officiel. Look below the cut for more pictures. Continue reading
