Jia Yuan is a famous social butterfly in Binhai, a green bud just waiting to bloom, with countless rumored boyfriends. His actual fiance has just died, and he's lonely and bored.

To secure himself a powerful backer, he tries to climb into his ex-boyfriend's younger son's enormous three-meter-wide bed. One careless move, however, costs him his life.

Jiang Xian, a young master neglected by both his father and mother, is in the middle of the stressful final stretch of his college entrance exam prep. He never expected to fall asleep and wake up in a super-rich family in a neighboring city, supposedly notorious for its complicated relationships between men. The unlucky man in bed with him curses in an outrageously cool manner: "If you're that bold next time, I'll break your legs."

Jiang Xian: "???"

He promptly kicks him out of bed.

Later, he runs away to school, only to discover that the unlucky man is his roommate, the kind whose feet are practically touching his.

What a melodramatic life in a wealthy family.

Liu Yuyuan recently discovers that this social butterfly's desk is piled high with practice books for the national college entrance exam. Does he think he can reach the heavens?

After the college entrance exam, Li Qiuxu, his high school's former top dog, goes to a neighboring city for a night of drinking and debauchery. A few months after he gets back, his belly starts to grow.

While he's still bewildered, a wild man shows up at his door and introduces himself: "My name is Wei Zi'an. I'm eighteen this year."

Li Qiuxu's parents: "!"

The cherished heir of the Wei family is named Wei Zi'an. He's an eighteen-year-old top scorer in the college entrance exam, a rich second-generation heir coveted by everyone in Pingjiang.

It's the fourth year of Li Qiuxu's marriage to Wei Zi'an, and their son is three and a half. Li has become a nobody in the entertainment industry, a bottom-tier actor ranked seventeenth from the bottom. Then he gets into a car accident, and his memories suddenly shrink back to when he was eighteen.

Li Qiuxu: "Who are you? Who's this kid? I gave birth to him? Seriously, is this some kind of prank? Stop it."

His friend Mao Siyi cries as he tells him, "He's really your husband. He's a few months older than you. You loved him like crazy, lost yourself trying to be a good spouse and parent, and for three years you haven't been able to live or die in peace. But he doesn't like you at all."

Li Qiuxu: "...Let me take a moment. I think I'm going crazy."

A few months later, Wei Zi'an realizes he's panicking.
