Having tasted all the bitterness of the world prematurely, Xin Yuanque was cultivated into a smart and precocious girl. She tried her best to pretend to be simple and ordinary in the class to cover up the unrest that her good looks might bring to her. But she met Gu Yuheng in class, who seemed cynical and rebellious, but was very outstanding. She also learned that Gu Yuheng was the son of Gu Tianxing and his first ex-wife. In addition, the presence of the calm and gentle Chen Yi and the tricky eldest daughter Yu Minmin, who liked Gu Yuheng, completely shattered Xin Yuanque's expectation for a peaceful life.

According to the law, Gu Yuheng had to be raised by Gu Tianxing before he reached the age of 18. Xin Yuanque's "stepdaughter" identity was only known to Gu Yuheng. Gu Yuheng accepted Xin Yuanque's explanation, and because of Gu Tianxing's betrayal of his mother, he had always hated his father, so he made an agreement with Xin Yuanque to break away from the father-son relationship with Gu Tianxing when he turned 18, so that they could be together legitimately. The two lived under the same roof and enjoyed the little secrets between them.
During the college entrance examination, Xin Yuanque, who had excellent grades, suddenly suffered from appendicitis. However, in order not to let Gu Yuheng know, he endured the pain of taking the exam, so he only stayed at a university in the province, while Gu Yuheng went outside the province.
