[Where the light shines, love and hate arise in the cage]
He is the most dazzling being in Yuying Middle School - Lin Shuying, the proud son of the Lin Group, and the sound of his fingertips can stir the heartbeat of the entire campus. His grades are firmly at the top of the list, and he has an unruly personality but a magnet-like charm. The windows of the guitar club are always filled with eyes that stop for him. She is Cheng Xin, who is buried in books, as gentle and restrained as mint. She shares the red list with him as the number one in her grade, but she only dares to turn her secret love into secret wine when no one is around.
They are academic masters who keep pace with each other, and they are lights and shadows on parallel lines. He is her distant light, and she is the dust in his eyes. Cheng Xin comes from a wealthy family, but is trapped in a cold native family; Lin Shuying seems to be free, but after meeting her, he feels his heart being touched for the first time.
When the graduation bell rang, he went overseas to pursue his ambitions in music and business, while she stayed at a top domestic university to continue her legend of academic excellence. She thought her life would diverge at this point, but a sudden bankruptcy dragged Cheng Xin into the abyss. His father's company collapsed, creditors surrounded him, and the flowers in the hothouse became weeds in the mire. She proudly proposed breaking up, not wanting him to be in her own embarrassment, but when she was desperate, she could only knock on his door.
"Lin Shuying, please help me."
When we met again in the neon-lit urban jungle, he was already a young CEO who had just started his family business, and she was a humble seeker. He looked at her pale face, with complicated emotions surging in his eyes, which finally turned into a cold deal: "You can - stay and please me."
What was once light became a gilded cage that imprisoned her. He used money to build barriers for her, but he also used alienation and control to bind her. She stayed by his side, enduring the difficulties of the second female lead Chen Lin, facing the jokes of his brother Song Jia, and the distressed eyes of her best friend Gu Tian. In this game in the name of "pleasing", love and hate grow like vines: he struggles between possessiveness and distress, and she sinks in humiliation and dependence.
When the dusty secret love collides with the shackles of reality, when the academic master's reason confronts the out-of-control emotions, can they penetrate the vanity under the light and see clearly the sincerity hidden deep in each other's hearts? How will the girl who once said "We are not from the same world" and the boy who kept her by his side in the wrong way find an outlet for rebirth in the cage of love and hate?
