Tong Ganxi is recognized as a cool school boy at the Academy of Fine Arts. He paints everything vividly, but he cannot paint his own trapped fate - his family business is being plotted, and he can only approach Jiang Zhe, the prince of Beijing, in the name of a "friend" in order to seek a chance of survival.
Jiang Zhe came from a top wealthy family and always looked on with cold eyes, but he was particularly indulgent towards this taciturn little painter. Tong Gunxi thought he was disguising well, until one day, Jiang Zhe called him to the office, threw out a stack of investigation documents, and said casually: "Are you tired after acting for so long?"
The moment the secret was revealed, Tong Ganxi thought he would be kicked out. But Jiang Zhe just took away the document and looked up at him: "Be sincere when asking for help. Stay here and I will protect you."
What started as a calculated approach eventually turned into a two-way trap. The cold and aloof prince's favor was only given to the little painter who wanted to run away but couldn't stop running away.
