Lu Youbai has a secret: he's both an assistant on this same-sex dating reality show and one of its contestants.
Every evening, Lu Youbai slips out of the villa like a secret agent, cuts through the editing room next door, and gets to work. Then he has to delete every last bit of footage that mustn't be seen: He Qinglie pinning him against the wall and pressing him into the bed, their hands entwining in the darkness, and the other man's words in his ear: "Long time no see."
It's only fair, he thinks. This time, he's the one erasing everything between them.
Until one late night working overtime, Lu Youbai discovers that all his things have been piled together. On screen, someone is curled up among them, when a familiar, anxious voice suddenly comes through his headphones.
"Teacher Lu, why haven't you come back yet...?"
