Su Xinghe, a 32-year-old synthetic biology researcher, is a well-known "two-faced person" in academia. In the laboratory, she is the "Boss Su" who can bully investors with data and counterattack her peers with strategies. But emotionally, due to the shadow of her original family, she is like a little girl who does not know how to express herself and avoids marriage. When the 34-year-old investor Lin Shen broke into her world with the intention of cooperation, the two went from tit-for-tat confrontation of "scientific research purity vs. Capital logic" to catching a glimpse of the softness under each other's armor in each game: Lin Shen's seemingly sleek business shell hides his obsession with "solid relationships"; Xinghe's career sophistication is just to cover up his emotional innocence.
At a time when "involution" has become the norm and thirty-year-old love is wrapped up in reality, they choose to "involve in love" - taking the initiative to dismantle their inner defenses and learn to manage relationships clumsily but sincerely. However, the entanglement of interests behind the cooperation project, the truth about Lin Shen's "fear of marriage" hidden, and the emotional trap set by Xinghe to protect himself, brought this relationship to the edge of the cliff several times. In the end, in the process of solving the crisis, the two accepted each other's "double sides" and used the maturity of adults to protect the innocent feelings of thirty years old, proving that "love" is not a competition, but a willingness to polish their edges into the shape of an embrace for each other.
