[Bottom's point of view]:
After a minor accident, Ji Ran, the star long-distance runner on Huacheng University's track team, was diagnosed with prosopagnosia, or face blindness.
To him, everyone's face looks veiled in mist. The harder he tries to see clearly, the blurrier it gets.
But that's okay. A little face blindness won't affect Ji Ran's daily life.

The senior student sitting across from Ji Ran in the library is mature and steady, wears rimless glasses, and has a desk piled high with English books in their original editions. His fingers make a faint sound as they dance across the keyboard.
One rainy day, Ji Ran had forgotten his umbrella, so the senior shared his. He angled it slightly toward Ji Ran, leaving most of his own shoulder soaked.
Ji Ran: I won't forget this one. He's the gentle, brainy senior!

Ji Ran finds a part-time job as an assistant at a photography studio.
One of the male models is tall, well-proportioned, and has short hair slicked back to reveal strikingly handsome features.
For the shoot, Ji Ran is in charge of applying oil to the model's body.
When his hand rests lightly on the model's abs, the model gives him a long look.
Ji Ran: I won't forget this one. He's the aloof senior with abs!

Ji Ran's roommate drags him to an internet cafe to play some games, but the roommate is bad and hopelessly addicted, dragging Ji Ran into a losing streak.
At a crucial moment in the match, a young man at the next computer takes the roommate's place. He and Ji Ran work together seamlessly, turn the game around, and rack up kill after kill!
Ji Ran buys him milk tea to say thanks. The young man curls his lips into a slight smile and reaches out to pat his head.
Ji Ran: I won't forget this one. He's the gaming ace!
* * * * *
After that, Ji Ran meets a piano guy, a basketball guy, the student council president, and more...
Ji Ran thinks he must be incredibly popular. Sure, he has inexplicable face blindness, but he's made so many great buddies!
So why are all these great buddies confessing to him at the same time?
Uh... If he dated six men at once, would that be illegal?

[Top's point of view]:
Their friends all know that Qin Muchuan is pursuing a junior in the sports department.
His name is Ji Ran.
On the track, he's like a drawn sword, unstoppable. Off the track, he's quite the contrast, slow in both speech and action, as if he's in power-saving mode.
The library, the photography studio, the basketball court, the arts festival, the internet cafe, the student council...
The two of them are always together, moving in perfect sync.
It's just that whenever Qin Muchuan pursues him, the junior always plays hard to get.
In the morning, the junior blushingly hands Qin Muchuan a cup of lemonade at the internet cafe. That afternoon, he turns down Qin Muchuan's dinner invitation in the classroom building.
When they meet at the photography studio over the weekend, the junior can't keep his hands off Qin Muchuan's abs, but on Monday he walks past him on the track without even looking his way.
In a secluded corner of the library, they kiss until they're both flushed and breathless. But at the student council, the junior pretends not to know him and tells Qin Muchuan to mind his conduct.
Qin Muchuan: ...?
What kind of game is this? I've never seen it before.
