[Campus | Underdog Comeback | Redemption | Pretend Romance Turns Real | Comedy]
Yao Xiaoning is a classic bottom-rung loser: poor, insecure, and terrible at school. Her older brother, Yao Cheng, is the only family she has, and he's an exceptionally gifted computer genius. But he's also a hopeless simp. To send a hypocritical, money-hungry green-tea class belle abroad, he works five under-the-table jobs a day and is even planning to sell a kidney!
Desperate to stop her brother from ruining his life, Yao Xiaoning takes the five thousand yuan she has left for tuition and hires Lu Ye, the school's notorious hotheaded bully, to pretend to be her “bad-boy boyfriend.”
“Bro! If you don't keep an eye on me, I'm running away with him to work on an assembly line and have eight kids!”
Seeing his meek, easily bullied little sister in the arms of a thug with a streak of yellow hair, her overprotective brother goes completely berserk! Forget that green-tea class belle! I'm going to save my sister!
To make their act more convincing, Lu Ye starts “torturing” Yao Xiaoning in every way possible. “With your shabby look, you think you can fool your brother? Get back to memorizing vocabulary! Fail the test and I'll dock your pay!” “Chin up, shoulders back. My fake girlfriend can't look like some bumpkin!”
Under Lu Ye's sharp-tongued, tough-love “bad-boy PUA,” Yao Xiaoning transforms from an insecure ugly duckling into a top scorer on the college entrance exam and a rising entrepreneur. By the time her brother finally sees through the green tea's true colors and turns around to teach the yellow-haired guy who stole his sister a lesson, he discovers that his sister has become a top mogul, and that the “yellow hair” is none other than a young heir from one of the capital's most powerful families!
