   The first book is unusually told from the male protagonist's perspective. "She's transferring schools, and I didn't dare look up at her. I wanted to talk to her, but I couldn't say anything." Perhaps it's empathy; when he left that day, I didn't say anything, not even a "goodbye." The second book says, "A knight's duty is to protect the princess. Don't worry, with me here, I'll never let you lose." A knight is a knight, not a prince, and he won't marry a princess [crying]. The third book says, "She would definitely say, 'Compared to your face, I'm more familiar with your back.'" A super realistic perspective of a secret admirer, who isn't even friends with the male protagonist. The fourth book only has one line: "Intersecting but never parallel." The fifth book is about a narcotics police officer; there are always many things beyond one's control, aren't there? The sixth book is about Chen Suiyi, who is like Aladdin's lamp, granting many people's wishes, but forgetting herself. For her brother, for her grandfather, for the Chen family, for revenge, she died forever at the prime of her 18 years [crying].

Later, the seme even feeds the uke amnesia-inducing drug, causing him to faint frequently in an attempt to recall his past memories. Then, the emperor suspects the uke of falling in love with the seme and betraying him, and the uke is assassinated. Almost every chapter is a trial by fire.
