Known as a stoic, research-obsessed materials science professor, Gu has never been linked to any romantic rumors in the academia. But new teaching assistant Lin Xiao soon discovers his hidden soft side: he secretly leaves hot coffee for her during overtime, quietly defends her when she’s targeted by senior colleagues, and even sits next to her voluntarily at team building events. When colleagues whisper "Why Professor Gu Plays Favorites", Lin Xiao realizes she has been the object of his secret crush for half a year, and their long-hidden romance is finally about to surface.
