Xiao Hongchen was one of the brightest geniuses at Sun Moon Academy. He thought he was used to being admired, but when he saw Qian Huanyue for the first time, he couldn't help but stop in his tracks. In that instant, his heart… stirred ever so slightly. But he was too proud to admit what he felt. He told himself “Getting stronger is what matters most.” “Romance will only get in the way.” So he chose to bury that flutter in his heart and treat her with cool detachment. Yet with every encounter, Xiao Hongchen found it harder and harder to control his feelings. Her smile, her earnestness, her occasional absent-mindedness, the determined look in her eyes when she faced a difficult problem… All of it was like a light quietly falling into his heart. He thought he was hiding it well. But he didn't know The feelings he'd fought so hard to suppress had already begun to spill out in every glance and every time he drew near. And Qian Huanyue gradually discovered the warmth and resolve beneath his cold exterior. But… She hadn't yet realized that this was the beginning of falling for him. This is the story of two geniuses who, while striving to become stronger, are drawn to each other without even realizing it.
