Lin Zhiyao, a freshman in the Department of Computer Science, walked into the laboratory for the first time and met Gu Chengxiao's cold gaze. As a professional distinguished lecturer, he can always accurately point out the loopholes in her code, and he can also see through her stubbornness hidden under her silence. When she emerged in the algorithm competition, and when he handed her the project book that had been revised seven times late at night, this bond that transcended teachers and students quietly took root.
However, the pursuit from senior Zhou Xubai broke the calm. Under the guise of "for your own good", he belittled her coding talent, denied her career ideals, and used emotional shackles to trap her in a cage of self-doubt. It wasn't until during project cooperation that Gu Chengxiao quietly exposed the truth that Zhou Xubai had plagiarized her creativity, that Zhiyao realized that he had already been trapped in the quagmire of PUA.
On the way to escape danger, junior high school student Jiang Ye broke into her world with passionate love. He would clumsily debug the crashed code for her, and dispel her haze with a warm hug, but due to the immaturity of his youth, he drifted away from her during critical decisions.
From the youthful campus to the smoke-filled workplace battlefield, Zhiyao constantly reconstructs herself between the 0s and 1s of the code. When she was finally able to stand alone and stand under the spotlight of the industry summit, the answers about love and growth were already hidden in Gu Chengxiao's unwavering gaze - it turns out that the real salvation is to meet someone who makes you a better version of yourself.
