Shou's perspective:
On the first day of university, Xi Ning fell in love at first sight with the top senior student in the mecha combat program.
The young man calmly looked away, unruffled. It was fine. He'd stop liking him soon anyway...
Gong's perspective:
Xie Yanchen, formerly an awakened, beautiful-but-tragic child of the world, and now a big shot at the World Administration Bureau, is responsible for keeping worldlines running smoothly. Because his methods for carrying out missions are just a little too brutal, he is forced to take on an SSS-level romance mission as punishment, so he can learn to be gentle and restrained.
Xie Yanchen, who never touches romance plotlines: "What's wrong with you?"
The handsome young protagonist sees him from afar for the first time
[ Ding! Xi Ning's Romance Value: 40% ]
Xie Yanchen scoffs. What a lovesick fool.
The protagonist falls in love with him at first sight, and his Romance Value quickly rises to 60% despite barely interacting with him. Unfortunately, after that, the number doesn't budge.
Xie Yanchen thinks coldly that, given the protagonist's feelings for him, a confession from him should raise the value to at least 80%. A few dates, a staged accident to deepen their bond, then using points to exchange for a puppet to kiss in his place, and the mission will be over.
After Xie Yanchen confesses
[ Warning! Xi Ning's Romance Value has dropped. Current value: 10%. Host, please take action to remedy the situation. ]
The young man awkwardly turns him down, leaving Xie Yanchen standing there for a long while, stunned by his miscalculation.
At the time, Xie Yanchen smiles in a way that's hard to read, thinking it's rather interesting.
Later, Xie Yanchen sets aside his arrogance and temper, glues his shattered heart back together, and keeps pursuing the young man, becoming his blade, his servant, and his mad dog.
