[Polar Researcher x Glacier Documentary Director]
Bai Pei is a ball of fire.
Direct and fierce.
She does old-fashioned scientific research for a living, but beneath her expedition uniform beats a passionate, restless heart.
She's devoted, and only likes handsome men.
Unfortunately, she went all the way to Antarctica for research, where there wasn't a handsome man within a hundred miles. In fact, she was lucky to even see a male animal.
Fortunately, she finally met a handsome guy there to shoot a documentary.
How could she let that chance go? She had to make the most of him, haha~

Chang Gengyang was born into a wealthy family and had seen countless people put on false airs, but Bai Pei's "hypocrisy" still opened his eyes.
She was clearly the one who started talking to him, took advantage of him, and ended up in bed with him.
But the next day, she acted as if he wasn't there, as though the heat of the night before had all been an illusion.
Then, at night... she unconsciously snuggled up to him again.
What did she take him for?
Chang Gengyang couldn't help but scoff.
He couldn't help thinking how "hypocritical" she was, clearly liking him but insisting on playing hard to get.
Hah, good.
Poor little thing. It must be hard to pine for someone in a place this harsh.
Since they were so "compatible," he might as well generously give her a chance!
So, beneath a sky full of auroras, Chang Gengyang secretly reached for Bai Pei's fingers: (You can hold my hand now.)
Bai Pei didn't react.
Communications resources in the polar regions were scarce. When he learned that Bai Pei had applied for a five-minute satellite call, he waited by the phone all night.
The next day, he discovered that she'd called someone else.
Afterward, she even had the nerve to bat her eyes and lean in to ask, "Brother Chang~ You aren't mad, are you?"
Chang Gengyang finally understood:
Damn! Bai Pei wasn't into him at all!
She thought of him as an Antarctic-exclusive, human-shaped, bed-warming Roman emperor!
"The glaciers are melting.
The penguins are fleeing.
And you and I, one tracing the past, the other recording the present."
