Everyone in City B knows that Tan Xu was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. A third-generation political family background combined with second-generation wealth lets him live as he pleases. In the first half of his life, he chased pleasure and traveled the world, with freedom as his only creed.
Then he meets Song Jinye, an art student in a white shirt, carrying a drawing board, with what seems like starlight in his eyes. Song Jinye’s “innocence” is a gentle net that easily ensnares Tan Xu, who is used to drifting through life. But no one knows that carefully calculated motives hide behind that tenderness. He approaches Tan Xu only to use his connections to achieve a secret goal.
Possessiveness grows unchecked beneath the disguise, while scheming seeps through the tenderness. When the truth rips away the mask of affection, trust collapses and love twists out of shape. Tan Xu’s freedom is locked away, while Song Jinye’s motive finally surfaces, bringing pain with it. After this entanglement that began with exploitation drags them through a torturous cycle of hurting each other, one of them finally drops his disguise and uses his sincere love to make amends for their shattered past.
