Lin Xu, a poor boy, worked hard to get into a prestigious university. He wanted to climb high with his academic qualifications, but he bumped into the person he envied most - Fu Chenzhou, an associate professor in the Department of Finance. Not only is this guy the heir to the Fu Group, he wears gold-rimmed glasses and is as elegant as a picture, but he is also held in the palm of the hand by Su Wanqing, the school beauty Lin Xu has a crush on. Lin Xu, who was jealous to the point of being twisted, anonymously spread rumors on the campus forum that Fu Chenzhou was a "gay who harassed students." He wanted to vent his anger, but he accidentally stung a hornet's nest.
Fu Chenzhou is a man with a sword hidden in his smile, and the city is deep enough to drown people. He quietly followed the clues and locked the clown Lin Xu, and a quiet "hunt" began: academic suppression, resource blockade, and even when Lin Xu's mother was seriously ill, he used money and power to firmly control him. Lin Xu hated him until her teeth itched, but had to bow her head in order to survive, becoming the most frustrating "assistant" around Fu Chenzhou.
But this shady professor's methods go far beyond that. While using cold violence to crush Lin Xu's self-esteem, he lowered his body in front of his mother's hospital bed; while using Lin Xu as a substitute (in memory of his best friend who died in a car accident), he sacrificed his life to protect Lin Xu when he was beaten. When Lin Xu gradually discovers the paranoia and pain behind Fu Chenzhou's gentle mask, and discovers the family conspiracy behind the "accidental" car accident, the two scarred people gradually become entangled in an inseparable relationship while torturing and testing each other. From the initial malicious rumors to the subsequent dependence on life and death, the game that started with jealousy finally turned into the mutual redemption of two souls in the dark.
