The Alphabet's Fairy Tale portrays the relationship between the 26 letters through the lens of love, forming a magical, beautiful, and innocent fairy-tale world. The 26 letters are not only the chapter titles of the entire book but also the protagonists of 26 stories. Each letter represents a child yearning for love, composing a soulful music only lovers can understand with their sharp yet sorrowful gaze. Therefore, in these 26 stories, if you love a particular letter, then the corresponding story belongs to you. Conversely, if you shed tears while reading a story, then the corresponding letter is your lucky one.
The book begins with the letter A and ends with Z. An, a boy named An, is an artist who painted an ocean woven from purple daisies for the person he loved. The more he yearned for true love, the more powerful his artistic abilities became, covering almost every wall in the city with purple daisies, making everyone mistake it for the "Purple Sea." When he lost the person he loved, he left resolutely, disappearing from our sight, walking, painting things that were closer to the soul and closer to heaven. However, the story does not end but slowly begins. A girl named Bai Shuishui suddenly appears in An's life, only to be a girl with amnesia. It turns out she also had her own past; she had been hurt by a boy named Ci. At the entrance of an antique shop, she suddenly knelt down and remembered everything that had happened. Thus, everything unfolds in the moment of An's departure and Bai Shuishui's awakening.
An continues to wander, appearing at every special moment, in the lives of those who yearn for true love, while also recording everyone's lives with his brush. For example, the lonely assassin You Tian, whose wife committed suicide to help him achieve his career, and whose daughter left at the age of eight to become another powerful assassin. Two fierce silver-gray revolvers, a war between and hatred unfolds between father and daughter, until the arrival of a police officer named Van, where some die, and others are injured.
For instance, the dazzling female celebrity Qingting, who became an international star after playing the leading role in the film The Lotus Leaves, grew to despise her fame and the awkwardness of being watched. Eventually, to find the original author of the film, she secretly changed her name and left the colorful world, only to discover a little-known secret.
For example, the little witch Lang'er, who frequents the mysterious Tree Bar, meets Kang, who is filled with the scent of licorice. After a series of love trials, she meets another mature man, Lan, who is her sister's boyfriend. In agony, she chooses the method of the Little Mermaid, destroying herself to fulfill others.
And so on and so forth. Until the end, the young and talented violinist Zeus, after hating his violin one day, sees An's paintings and is deeply drawn to his power. The stories above had all escaped An's eyes, and An had always been an observer behind these stories. He continues to see the last painting: the Purple Sea. It turns out that all the stories take place within his paintings, all the killings, pains, beauties, and sorrows are fairy tales, fairy tales born from the souls that yearn for true love.
