Lin Wan, the sharp-tongued queen of the architecture world, tears into tech tycoon Gu Yanchen at an industry summit for “letting an amateur tell the experts how to do their jobs,” reducing his fragile ego to a QR code. She thinks they’ll never cross paths again, but through a twist of fate, she becomes the designer of his company’s headquarters. The two workplace rivals are thrown into a “doomed partnership”: the demanding client nitpicks every detail, while the uncompromising designer refuses to give an inch. Every meeting turns into a debate as explosive as a collision between planets.
Her best friend Xia Mo’s “I love watching the drama unfold” attitude and Gu Yanchen’s friend Shen Ze’s “masterful matchmaking” keep pushing them into one battlefield after another. In a temporary site cabin on a stormy night, his awkwardly offered jacket sends a spark through her fingertips. When she faints from low blood sugar, his panicked bridal carry gives away his true feelings. Most dangerous of all are Gu Yanchen’s sly little tests: he uses a blind date as a cover, yet openly stands up for her at a family banquet; he criticizes her casual clothes to her face, then secretly spends three hours waiting to buy the doll she mentioned wanting.
When the haughty CEO loses control and kisses her at the company celebration, and the sharp-tongued queen demands answers through tears on her birthday, the quantum-entanglement-like tension between them finally erupts. They learn to back down amid their bickering, and to understand each other’s feelings after every cold war. Together, they take on family prejudice and workplace schemes. Her ex-boyfriend’s interference and a plagiarism scandal only make them more certain, through all the love and hate, that only they can handle each other’s sharp edges, and only they can fill the emptiness in each other’s souls.
In the end, a fleet of drones writes his marriage proposal across the night sky, and their heartfelt wedding vows set the internet ablaze. This “bickering power couple” writes a love story with code and blueprints.
