"Love is the light that helps us become better versions of ourselves."
Lin Xingchen is a third-year journalism student. On the surface, she's an ordinary girl full of energy, but secretly, she's the renowned traditional-style illustrator Xingchen. Resilient, optimistic, and independent-minded, she refuses to follow the crowd and is a little ray of sunshine.
Lu Xubai, 22, is a brilliant fourth-year finance student and student council president. He seems like a cold, aloof campus heartthrob, but his family background has left him insecure inside. He puts logic above all else, except when it comes to the heroine, where he has no principles whatsoever.
After an "accidental" campus scandal, the two are forced to sign a "fake couple contract" to handle the crisis. But as they keep up the act in their daily lives, their pretend romance turns real. They discover the hidden qualities that make each other shine, and eventually give their hearts to one another and grow side by side.
