Ke Jianian is a rich second-generation student who is terrible at school. In the villa next door lives his sworn enemy, Xie Yuanqing: aloof, devious, and a top-level genius who surpasses every prodigy. He's a favorite of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and has loved tormenting Ke Jianian with all kinds of bizarre tricks since they were kids.
He uses drones to catch him skipping class, blows up the school and destroys computers, and posts the failing report cards Ke Jianian hid for everyone to see, among other things.
Ke Jianian refuses to lose and tries every way he can think of to get back at Xie Yuanqing.

One day, he goes to pick a fight as usual. In the middle of it, the world undergoes global evolution, and his pheromones go haywire. He suddenly goes into heat. When he wakes up, he discovers he's differentiated into an Omega and been deeply marked by Xie Yuanqing, who has differentiated into an Alpha.
They're both covered in bite marks. They stare at each other.
"Who made the first move?"
"No idea."

After that, he becomes dependent on Xie Yuanqing's pheromones. He wants to get close, and whenever he does, his face flushes, his heart pounds, his legs go weak, and his chest flutters. He has to exercise all his self-control to keep from throwing himself at him.
While coming up with all sorts of ways to climb into his bed and seduce him, he also urges his sworn enemy to research a way to undo the deep mark and break free of the pheromone control.
One day, in one particular month of one particular year,
The bite marks on his gland have yet to fade. The other man's pheromones surround him, and Xie Yuanqing's hoarse voice sounds by his ear.
"I've developed a drug that can undo the mark."
"So, don't break up with me, okay?"
