When Ye Jiayi, a graduate student in the Department of History at A University, first met his mentor Lin Linxi, he only knew that she was a well-known "Professor Iceberg" in academic circles, who was rigorous, demanding and unreasonable.

When Ye Jiayi's wealthy identity was unexpectedly exposed, and when Lin Linxi's mother threatened their relationship with commercial interests, the pure friendship began to deteriorate.

In the whirlpool of identity and family interests, they use the most clumsy way to guard this relationship that is not understood by the world.

"But what I want is not just your discipline, but also the warmth behind your severity."
