When Xu Zhizhi was 24 years old, he became Shen Jiming's personal academic advisor.
She thought this was just a well-paid part-time job in her PhD career - three times a week, two hours each time, explaining the latest scientific research progress to the legendary Mr. Shen.
When they met for the first time, Shen Jiming said to her: "Miss Xu, I don't need you to teach me how to do experiments. I need you to tell me what is happening in the world."
Xu Zhizhi pushed up his glasses and replied calmly: "Then you may need to start with high school physics first."
Shen Jiming smiled. It was the first time in nearly ten years that he had laughed sincerely.
Only later did Xu Zhizhi realize that he was facing not only the leader of a business empire, but also a genius who once stood at the top of the academic pyramid but fell off the altar due to an accident.
He taught her the ways of the world, and she taught him cutting-edge science.
Two equally proud souls gradually get closer while crushing each other.
Until one day, Xu Zhizhi discovered that the title of her doctoral thesis was written on the ongoing project in Shen Jiming's secret laboratory.
The project was started three years earlier than her proposal.
