Both leads are each other's only partners × scheming × equally strong leads × happy ending
Youthful modern romance / fake yandere / healing / emotional push and pull
(A word to everyone: There's no malice or kindness in baseless rumors; people only act for their own interests.)
(The male lead is intense.)
A gorgeous, emotionally detached strategist × a solitary, aloof, scheming puppy
Xiao Yue (female lead): Emotionally detached, she has cultivated a seemingly obedient but secretly sharp-edged "good-but-difficult" facade.
Gu Zhiyan (male lead): Cool and aloof in public, but in private, the trauma of his family of origin hides a possessive, yandere nature desperate for salvation.
When she was twelve, she met the young Gu Zhiyan. Her kind embrace became an unexpected anchor in his dark life. From then on, the mad dog in the shadows fixed his gaze on his only light.
Wild birds need cages, and mad dogs need masters.
The cage she built and the lock he handed her were just right for keeping two scheming mad souls together.
"Welcome to the cage where you'll be tamed by the light."
"From now on, there are no saints here, no salvation, only accomplices."
