    A story of a younger, seemingly innocent but actually cunning male lead [shy]. The couple is a pseudo-sibling pair (loving step-siblings) from their university days to the modern city. The female lead's blended family broke up when she was 13, separating the two. They reunited in university, where the male lead was studying dentistry. The neighbors on Changqing Street all knew that Yu Xia and He Wenqing were the most loving step-sibling duo. Unfortunately, at thirteen, the fragile blended family fell apart, and Yu Xia left Wucheng with her mother, disappearing without a trace. After their reunion, Yu Xia was preoccupied with reminiscing about her innocent childhood, neglecting the fact that the young man before her was no longer the adorable child she remembered. One day, Yu Xia, for the nth time, openly introduced their sibling relationship. The usually calm and composed He Wenqing grasped the girl's slender wrist, gazing at her with seemingly clean but indifferent eyes: "Yu Xia, look carefully, who is your brother?" Those around He Wenqing, a dentist, consistently described him as clean, proud, restrained, and aloof. Only he knew that he was like a trapped beast lurking in the darkness, always waiting for his chance to strike. For many years, He Wenqing had treasured a yellowed photograph. In the photo, a girl in a school uniform smiled innocently. On the back of the photograph, the young He Wenqing had written a hidden secret in his freehand handwriting: "You must love me, you must love me the most." "You must only love me."
