A calculating, flirtatious puppy-like young man x a spirited, career-driven older woman
Industry gossip says talent agent Ye Ning has powerful connections, but terrible luck. No matter how talented an artist is, they never become a major star under her management.
Her career is going nowhere, and Ji Ruoyun, her longtime boyfriend, has not only stolen a huge chunk of her resources but also hooked up with the rising star Ye Ning herself helped build. He even mocks her for being hopeless and wasting such good resources.
Unwilling to accept defeat, Ye Ning goes drinking at a bar one day. A little tipsy, she spots the owner chatting and laughing with a customer.
His eyes are full of tenderness, and when he smiles, they look like they hold a pool of spring water.
Ye Ning is immediately intrigued. With eyes that alluring, this man is destined to be a star.
She keeps coming to his bar for a week, until one day the owner personally serves her.
He hands her a cocktail with a faint smile. “Thanks for stopping by.”
After finishing her drink, Ye Ning smiles too and curls a finger at him, her eyes visibly hazy with drink.
“Boss, do you want to be famous? If you do, come with me.”
Later, he really does go with her. Ye Ning is pleased with herself. She's got a fish on the hook.
Shen Weixi doesn't disappoint her. He's handsome, hardworking, and as obedient as can be.
Shen Weixi soon becomes famous, and Ye Ning plans to strike while the iron is hot and pair him with someone for publicity on a new variety show.
But when Shen Weixi finds out, he pins her against the wall and looks at her with a wounded expression.
“Sis Ye, there's someone I like. Could you not pair me with that person for publicity?”
From then on, Ye Ning is kept so busy by her young boyfriend, day and night, that she can hardly get away.
When Ji Ruoyun learns that Ye Ning is the heiress of Chengfeng Entertainment, he wants to win her back, only to find a puppy-like young man by her side.
Having spent years in the industry, Ji Ruoyun doesn't think much of a newcomer.
But one day, when he harasses Ye Ning, the young man breaks his hand.
Shen Weixi crouches down and stares at him. Gone is the innocent act he puts on in front of Ye Ning. He curls his lips into a wicked smile.
“Bro, you're getting old. Have some self-awareness, will you?”
One day, under the enchanting cover of night, Ye Ning, captivated by Shen Weixi's good looks, can't help asking him:
“When did you start liking me?”
“When you were drinking at my bar. Your cheeks were red, but your eyes were bright. You were so beautiful.”
Ye Ning freezes.
Shen Weixi leans close and whispers in her ear, “That's why I went to such lengths to seduce you.”
