[System + girl chases boy + rivals-to-lovers]
[Ling Yusheng x Li Chaochen, classical dance prima ballerina x powerful heir]
[Resilient, brave, lively, and quick-witted girl who says exactly what she thinks x brooding, suspicious, sharp-tongued, calculating, and avoidant older man]
A matchmaking System suddenly appears and forces Ling Yusheng, who has been single her whole life, to choose a target to pursue immediately. She falls for Li Chaochen at first sight and binds herself to him.
After learning Li Chaochen is a powerful big shot, Ling Yusheng wants to give up. She wants to give up when his coldness and sharp tongue hurt her, and again when he clearly falls for her but stubbornly avoids her. She tries countless times to switch targets, but she just can't fall for anyone else, so she has no choice but to keep charging ahead!
Damn this System! If her target's affection level doesn't meet the required mark, it punishes her with heart-wrenching pain. The only way to ease it is through physical contact with her target. But Li Chaochen is too difficult to win over, so she has to show up at his door on schedule, shamelessly throw herself at him, and save her own life.
Li Chaochen's complicated past made him brooding and suspicious. He wanted nothing to do with Ling Yusheng's deliberate advances. But she wouldn't stop pestering him, so he reluctantly allowed her to get close, determined to uncover the scheme behind her actions. He never expected her to slowly conquer his heart.
When she was in trouble, he couldn't bear it. When she was upset, he couldn't bear it. When someone picked on her, he grew so irritated he snapped, “You're bold enough to stand up to me, so why do you turn into a mute little quail around everyone else?”
He grabs her hand and makes her slap the person bullying her, telling her, “Hit them. If you hurt them, I'll take responsibility.”
Li Chaochen: Don't interfere! I'm only pretending she's got me under her spell. I have my own pace.
Ling Yusheng: Admit it, Li Chaochen. You're already in love with me!
