Introverted, top-of-the-class legal assistant × husbandly crisis PR expert. Bound together by an accidental PR crisis, they grow in their respective careers and ultimately fall in love at the top of their fields in this story about accomplished professionals.
Female lead: Fang Jingshu, 24: master's degree in law, trainee lawyer's assistant at a top-tier law firm
Introverted, mildly socially anxious, tends to avoid conflict, more rational than emotional, meticulous and logical, with a photographic memory. She has an absolute faith in rules and struggles to ask for it, but longs to be someone's unequivocal choice.
Male lead: Zhou Xubai, 30: partner at a top crisis PR firm
Gentle and refined, emotionally intelligent and steady, skilled at negotiation, protective by nature, and fiercely possessive of those he cares about. He believes “people matter more than rules.”
During the female lead's college years, he was her anonymous online confidant. Neither knew the other's identity.
Secondary couple: powerful career woman × free-spirited artist (the female lead's older sister × the male lead's friend)
