Yan An spends his college entrance exam break obsessed with a game. Then, half a month before school starts, his in-game partner doxxes him, secretly takes photos and posts them in a group chat, mocking him: “He’s ugly and plays around. What’s a short, squat loser like him doing paired up with me?”
They quickly apply to end their pairing, leaving Yan An staring blankly at a photo of a guy with glasses in the group chat. Isn’t that his senior from high school, who repeated his final year twice?
Before he can explain, another pop-up appears, inviting him to link up in a romantic relationship.
Distracted by a notification from the app, he accidentally taps Confirm.
Yan An: ?
His new partner, whose chat avatar is a pink puppy, messages him: Can I be your partner? You’re so good at games!
Yan An is pleased. Yan An holds his head high. The bad mood from being insulted vanishes completely.
That partnership lasts right through the first day of school. At the opening ceremony, he takes the stage to give a speech as the freshman representative. His handsome face fills the giant screen behind him, drawing screams from all the girls in the audience.
Yan An thinks to himself: Now this is the right way to show off a face like mine.
But being too popular with his admirers turns out to be a problem too. After the ceremony, a few girls corner him backstage with questions, just as his new college roommate, Li Yan, a six-foot-tall athlete, steps in to help.
Unexpectedly, he and Li Yan get along incredibly well. Yan An eats, and Li Yan brings him water. Yan An goes to class, and Li Yan carries his bag. Yan An plays basketball, and Li Yan guards him closely...
Yan An is in a great mood, so out of habit he shares with his gaming partner: My amazing roommate is doing charity work again today. Attached: a photo of a handsome college guy.jpg
Across the table, the phone of the guy eating his meal lights up for a moment, and a pink puppy avatar flashes on screen.
Yan An: ? It must be a coincidence!
Yan An falls silent. Yan An says nothing. He watches his amazing roommate hurriedly fumble to put away his phone, and the chopsticks in his hand clatter onto the table.
