Four years ago, He Shiyu had just started his freshman year of college when a famous director spotted him for his good looks and invited him to audition.
But an accident happened during the audition. He and the male lead, Cui Mingli, were both drugged and ended up in the same bed, where they spent three whole days and nights together.
After waking up, He Shiyu knew better than to cross an industry big shot. He got dressed and left of his own accord.
He thought that would be the end of this ill-fated encounter.
Then, four years later, the media photographed Cui Mingli vacationing on an island with an adorable little boy in his arms.
The boy was reportedly almost three, which fit the timeline of what had happened four years earlier.
Only then did He Shiyu realize that he was young, single, and unmarried, yet somehow he had a child with a powerful industry figure?!

After the child was photographed, paparazzi often followed Cui Mingli everywhere, from the film set to his home, leaving no stone unturned.
Cui Mingli wanted his son to have a happy, carefree childhood and didn't want him exposed to the media too soon. With no other choice, he sought out the child's other father.
At the time, the child's other father was playing ball with friends on the sports field. He was a college student with no money to his name, just a young body and a handsome face.
The entertainment industry was full of young, handsome men, and Cui Mingli wasn't interested in He Shiyu. He laid down three rules for him, stipulating that he was only to help raise the child and that neither of them was to develop real feelings.
After that, impoverished campus heartthrob He Shiyu became rich overnight, diligently raising the child on a monthly salary of five million.
Luckily, the little one was well-behaved and sensible, and easy to care for. His only daily demand was to video call his father, Cui Mingli.

Six months later, He Shiyu was still raising the child, but someone tore up their contract with his own hands.
The handsome man from the video call stepped out of the screen and into his arms, straddling He Shiyu's lap. His cheeks were flushed, and his breathing grew more and more ragged.
He Shiyu played along, watching the man lose himself in the moment. "Mr. Cui, after all these years of keeping the father but not the child, would you consider giving me a proper title?"
Cui Mingli curled his lips into a smile and lifted He Shiyu's chin, his voice full of meaning. "That depends on how hard you try."
