Shang Lingcheng is a useless trust-fund kid: foolish, rich, and clueless. The sole heir to a family of espers, he was manipulated until he lost his powers. Whenever he tries to scheme against others, he gets everything wrong. He's a sweet, naive fool who thinks he's a genius.
Mai Yinqi comes from an ordinary family and possesses unfathomable esper abilities. A beacon of hope for the common people and the future of humanity, he is softhearted and gentle, with a deep sense of compassion. He also has a bad habit of trying to save everyone...
They both fall for the same beauty. Before long, their rivalry turns into a battle between ordinary people and the esper clans, and the two men, who've never even met, become sworn enemies.
But Mai Yinqi accidentally saves Shang Lingcheng from a monster. Shang Lingcheng is surprised by how cunning and calculating he is. The so-called beacon of hope and future of humanity turns out to act entirely on personal whims and simply hate all humans.
He despises Mai Yinqi's fake persona, but is obsessed with his cooking.
Mai Yinqi is captivated by his looks, but thinks he's too weak and stupid.
So Mai Yinqi appoints himself Shang Lingcheng's master, and discovers that someone had interfered with Shang Lingcheng's powers, preventing them from awakening.
Under Mai Yinqi's threats and the temptation of delicious food, Shang Lingcheng's powers gradually awaken.
But then he leaves without a word, hoping to use his newly awakened powers to attract his goddess, only to get caught by Mai Yinqi instead.
Their eyes meet. Mai Yinqi asks, "Are you using your powers to find a mate?"
Shang Lingcheng gives an uneasy snort. "I'm showing off my charms!"
"Showing your charms to me?" Mai Yinqi says, smiling gently as the other man presses close to him.
Shang Lingcheng says, "Are you crazy?"
Watching their intimate exchange, the goddess sees Mai Yinqi, who always respects people's boundaries, wrapping his arms around the other man. She looks at him with disgust. "Mai Yinqi, don't tell me you have a crush on Shang Lingcheng?"
Mai Yinqi: "..."
Looking as if he's seen a ghost, Shang Lingcheng shoves the silent Mai Yinqi away. "Say something!"
Mai Yinqi smiles gently and warmly, as if speaking sweet nothings. "If I say it, it won't be a crush anymore. It'll be a confession."
Shang Lingcheng breaks out in a cold sweat and stares wide-eyed.
Mai Yinqi continues gazing at him with tender warmth. "My good apprentice, do you want your master to confess to you?"
"..."
