Annete City Affiliated University is invaded by vicious assailants at night. A towering wall blocks the campus gates, and students flee in panic across the grounds. Mo Xi and his friend manage to cling to a statue until dawn.
At eight in the morning, the school broadcast crackles to life.
The survivors are then forced to clear a challenge every day, or they will die.
One is the campus heartthrob, widely known for having an exceptionally unconventional way of thinking. The other is a campus bully who is famous without even realizing it.
This unexpected incident makes them teammates and friends, but the bully has no idea that the heartthrob is using it as an excuse to get closer. In fact, they had crossed paths long ago.
In a four-person team, two people dole out sweetness while the other two savor it... but this sweetness tastes all wrong!
Fu Yuzhi: Eat more vegetables.
Mo Xi: Put it back.
Fu Yuzhi: You’re too pale. You’re malnourished. Eat more vegetables.
Mo Xi: ...Are you looking for trouble?
Fu Yuzhi: No.
Tang Huai gets it. This is the “fighting is affection, scolding is love” approach to showing sweetness.
