Plot
Born into a humble family with little financial prosperity, Wu Suo Wei (Zi Yu) is constantly insulted by his much wealthier ex-girlfriend. Determined to reinvent himself, he starts his own business but crosses paths with Chi Cheng (Tian Xu Ning), the spoiled heir of a family enterprise. When Suo Wei discovers that his ex is dating Chi Cheng, he decides to take revenge—by seducing Chi Cheng himself. Despite never having had romantic inclinations toward men, Suo Wei commits fully to his plan and successfully wins Chi Cheng's heart, only to be surprised by his own genuine feelings. As their lives intertwine more deeply, Suo Wei faces increasing complications. Will this unexpected love story succeed, or has his revenge plan gone too far?[7]
