Wu Suo Wei has always been trouble, the kind of spoiled university student who flirts with chaos and thinks the world owes him attention. When a reckless prank goes too far, it lands him in the orbit of Chi Cheng, a cold, composed businessman, older in age, who doesn't have time for childish games.
What begins as a game turns into something far more dangerous with every meet blurring the line between control and desire. Beneath the teasing and power plays, something raw and real begins to surface : the kind of connection neither man expected, and neither can walk away from.
