Rumor had it that Nan University heartthrob Yan Jingzhao was cold and indifferent, yet extraordinarily talented. As a sophomore, he had already published in a top SCI journal, and he had won championships in several national competitions. Thousands of students regarded him like a god. The only problem was that he wasn't easy to get along with. Before joining the lab, Lan Yue admired him more than anyone. After joining, she disliked him more than anyone. Her advisor had checked out, so Yan Jingzhao was in charge of her. "Senior, here's the revised paper. Please take a look," Lan Yue said nervously. "The focus is off, and there's way too much nonsense." Yan Jingzhao skimmed it quickly, then glanced coolly at the beautiful, frightened face in front of him. "Did you trade your brains for that face? Rewrite the whole thing." Lan Yue walked away in tears.

Until the day they met in person. Lan Yue looked at the familiar, terrifyingly handsome face and was stunned. "D-Disciple?" Yan Jingzhao reluctantly said, "Mm." They stared at each other in silence. The situation was excruciatingly awkward. Lan Yue's mind went blank for a second before she blurted out, "Let's break up." Yan Jingzhao: "?" "Let's just pretend we never met." "..."
