Proud, sharp-tongued bottom × scheming, loyal top, Xie Zheng × Song Hexing
As a little-known idol in a boy band that hadn't even made it big, Xie Zheng is told by his mother that his father has liver cancer. He accompanies his mother as they seek treatment for his father while continuing his group activities. But cancer is a bottomless pit. They sell their house and car and still end up in debt. The company hasn't even paid his appearance fees, and with five years left on his seven-year contract, breaking it would mean paying several million in damages.
Not long afterward, his father dies, and his mother is injured in a car accident. At his wits' end, he meets Song Hexing. Song Hexing offers to pay his contract termination fee and his younger sister's tuition while she's still in school. In return, Xie Zheng has to be with him for three years. After that, they'll be even.
Xie Zheng grits his teeth. Fine, three years it is.
