The female lead, having accidentally killed a villain while saving the male lead, has a traumatic reaction to knives, which the male lead further aggravates. She is later rescued by the male lead's mother and sister and sent abroad for treatment.

Initially, the female lead is reluctant to leave, but after being tormented for a while, she willingly leaves. However, the male lead clings on, repeatedly questioning her, "Do you really want to leave me?" (Honestly, that part was a bit disheartening.) But when the male lead's mother and sister rescue the female lead from his private villa, it's actually a deliberate act by the male lead. After she leaves, the male lead's mother hears faint crying behind the stairwell door. She goes to investigate and finds the male lead sitting there crying. He lets go.

I didn't know if it was because I was crying or because the rain was getting heavier; maybe both. My mood became even more melancholy. I could no longer suppress my emotions.

    He was initially cold and indifferent, rejecting her. Later, he became secretly passionate and insanely jealous, watching her and his best friends confess their love to him one after another, making her grit her teeth in frustration. Loving someone is so hard, but what if many people love you? Multiple men vying for your attention—what would she do if she knew about this competitive, cutthroat world? She desperately wanted someone to give her advice: should she keep her crush a secret forever, or muster the courage to confess? What if she was rejected? She confessed first, only to be cruelly rejected again. Indeed, unrequited love is best kept hidden forever; at least you won't suffer the pain of rejection. Living in a fantasy, pretending to be happy—falling in love with him is a wonderful thing. Her bitter, aching feelings were indescribable, yet six of his best friends confessed to her in turn. She didn't know what was happening. Who should she accept? Still grieving the rejection of her crush, she went on a trip with seven male classmates, including the boy she had a crush on. She never expected him to come. During a game of Truth or Dare, when asked who he liked and if anyone was present, he said yes. Her heart skipped a beat; who would be so lucky? She was still being pestered and didn't dare to express her feelings. Finally, the seven of them confronted each other, all demanding recognition. Who should she give her recognition to? The boy she had a crush on, or one of his six best friends?
