After her family falls deep into debt, former county-town socialite Yao Xinyu reinvents herself and retreats into the ivory tower, becoming a quiet university administrator just trying to get by.
In the first month of the semester, handsome lecturer Zhou Tuocheng sets the internet ablaze with his looks. His classes are mobbed, with students lining up row after row at the back of the classroom.
"Teacher Zhou, it's not your fault, but could you please stop everyone from crowding around to watch?"
Yao Xinyu, a new employee who can't take responsibility, treads carefully, as if walking on thin ice.
"Sure. Why don't you help me keep order?"
In the second month, Yao Xinyu gets roped into an inter-university mixer and, of all people, runs into Teacher Zhou. They end up making an impromptu gathering of people who know each other.
The rumors keep growing, and it seems she's been promoted to the university scene's newest tea-sipping socialite.
Getting a permanent position is hard, so she'd better watch what she says and does. If she can't afford to offend him, surely she can avoid him, right?
Apparently... she can't avoid him either. After all, he's her landlord.

At an upscale finance salon, Wen Jiayin was stopped by the man behind her.
Leaning against a high table, the man gave her a cuttingly sarcastic look with his long, alluring eyes.
"Instead of wasting your breath on those old men, why not catch up with me? Your mom used to be with my dad, after all. We know each other inside out, don't we?"
"Run into someone you know?" her arriving supervisor asked.
Wen Jiayin smiled sweetly and stepped back elegantly. "Just said hello. We aren't close."
During all those years living under someone else's roof, she'd had more than enough of Pei Youlin's air of superiority.
Back then, all she could do was put on a blank face and pretend to be dead.
Now, she wore the perfect professional smile.
Late at night in a hotel, Pei Youlin cornered Wen Jiayin by the bed, his gaze icy.
He asked tentatively, "I heard you're pretty close to the chairman here?"
Wen Jiayin didn't answer his question.
Instead, she met his lips and casually hooked a finger through his belt.
"Did you come all the way here in the middle of the night just to ask me that, Mr. Pei?"
Theme: Interest is the best teacher
"Explanation is insignificant"? What is this? This shows that people have their own principles. You have already rejected others and made a choice. Why would they go out of their way to contact you for emotional contact? What kind of logic is this? It is much better to refuse clearly than to refuse vaguely. "Condescend to condescend"? Why! In modern society everyone is equal. Even if I like you, you and I are equal. Do I like you and I still have to condescend to you? Why! Like is an emotion and an emotion. Everyone has it, there is no distinction between tall, short, fat or thin. (This is also a negative score)
If you like it, accept it; if you don't like it, reject it. It's such a simple thing. I feel guilty even though I refuse, why should I feel guilty? Because you can't bear to give up this "good man"? Testing "loyalty"? This is a sense of boundary. In such an occasion, you have already given the sticker to one person, but can you still chat with another person without any scruples? Isn't this fish farming? Eating from the bowl and looking into the pot. (Negative points)
Oh my God, it's over. Sprinkle flowers.
