Lin Yuzhou (Zhou/Xiao Zhou) is just another young man burdened with too many responsibilities. By day, he juggles part-time jobs at cafés and convenience stores; by night, he takes small modeling gigs-anything to pay off old family debts and keep himself afloat. His dream of stepping onto the big stage feels impossibly far away, yet Zhou refuses to let go of it, no matter how many doors are slammed in his face.
On the other hand, Shen Jiarui (Rui/A-Rui) is a star at the peak of his career. Popular, sharp, and notorious for his mischievous charm, Rui is the name every production house wants attached to their projects. For him, the entertainment world is just a game-and he's always the one holding the winning card.
When Zhou's small agency unexpectedly secures a collaboration project with Rui, everything changes. For Zhou, it's a once-in-a-lifetime chance that could finally turn his life around-or crush him completely if he fails.
Their first encounter is far from perfect. Zhou, awkward and unfamiliar with the glamorous spotlight, struggles to find his place beside Rui's overwhelming presence. Yet beneath Rui's teasing smiles and confident facade lies something else-a loneliness only Zhou seems able to see.
To Rui, Zhou isn't just another rookie. He's a contradiction-stubborn yet fragile, clumsy yet genuine, someone who refuses to play by the industry's rules. What begins as a reluctant partnership slowly grows into something far more complicated than work.
Meanwhile, in their orbit, Guo Zixian (Xian/A-Xian) and Wu Yichen (Chen/Xiao Chen) bring their own stories into the picture-friends, rivals, and sometimes unexpected allies-making the path between Zhou and Rui even messier, yet all the more unforgettable.
From that single collaboration begins a journey where pride is tested, vulnerabilities are exposed, and two very different worlds intertwine-until neither of them can deny the bond that fate has tied between them.
