After changing jobs, Shen Duoyi encounters his new boss, Qi Shi'an. They had a brief entanglement during their youth. As misunderstandings clear up, they start over and grow closer, giving rise to sparks that eventually ignite a sweet romance.

Qi Shi'an is a versatile senior trader skilled in fighting, diving, and finance. Shen Duoyi is a highly capable senior actuary with good looks, good character, and high emotional and intellectual intelligence.
Both are academic elites — a suave top and a sweet bottom, both wealthy.

The summary from hundreds of years ago:

Shen Duoyi's parents died in an accident when he was young, leaving him to be raised by his grandfather. As a teenager, he worked part-time jobs to support himself and ended up working as a server at an entertainment venue, where he unexpectedly encountered a young Qi Shi'an, who was already a patron at that age.

Due to a misunderstanding, one thought the other was not a decent person, the other thought that he could be bought with money.

When they meet again, it seems like a lifetime has passed. Qi Shi'an now sits in the office of a senior partner, impeccably dressed, exuding professionalism. Shen Duoyi, having shed his youthful awkwardness, now presents himself as a refined white-collar worker. They become superior and subordinate, gradually discovering each other's hidden strengths and flaws, embedding themselves in each other's hearts and minds.

The story mainly takes place years later, with a few teenage flashbacks sprinkled in. The summary is a mess — don't take it too seriously.

Both are academic elites: Senior Trader x Senior Actuary.

Top: mature, rational, and long-legged.

Bottom: smart, kind, and handsome. (Trying my best to hype them up.)
