At nine, Ji Mu was pushed through the gates of the Ji family mansion by his mother, transforming overnight from an illegitimate child into the third young master of the Ji house.

He kept a low profile, stayed quiet, and worked harder than anyone else.

When the Ji corporation faced crisis, he turned the tide against all odds. Under the stunned gazes of his peers, he rose to become the youngest leader in the family’s history.

Wealth breeds rivalry. Ji Mu secured the Ji family’s survival, only to be betrayed by his own kin and thrown into prison.

In the darkest hour of his life, slumped against a cold white wall, the door opened. Si Zhuxing stepped in, his eyes warm with a gentle smile: “President Ji, since you have no other choice, why not partner with me? I promise I won’t let you down.”

Ji Mu stayed silent. Si Zhuxing simply reached down, pulled him up, and walked him out of that freezing room.

Si Zhuxing was his confidant when all was lost, and the one person in his life who had ever treated him with genuine sincerity.

Tragically, blinded by resentment, Ji Mu failed to protect him—and lost himself in the process.

When he opens his eyes again, Ji Mu is back at twenty-seven, the most brilliant year of his life.

Reborn, Ji Mu wants to cut ties with everyone. Everyone, except Si Zhuxing.

But what he never expects is that the mature, steady, gentle man who used to sip goji berry tea from a thermos… is now, in his memories, replaced by a twenty-three-year-old Si Zhuxing who drinks heavily in flashy bars, throws ruthless punches, and doesn’t hold back.

Even more unexpected? The man Ji Mu now tries so desperately to get close to… also has his moments of wanting to run away.

At twenty-three, Si Zhuxing is bright, unapologetically bold, hates office work, and especially hates Ji Mu working too hard.

Ji Mu’s career-driven best friend has officially quit the hustle… and confessed to him instead.

Ji Mu is at a loss. He knows how to close deals, but he has no idea how to date.

On a quiet night scattered with faint stars and a pale moon, in a narrow alley washed in dim amber light,

Si Zhuxing corners him, trapping him in the narrow space between them, smiling in a way that’s both captivating and dangerous: “Let me teach you how to feel your heart race! Only for me!”

Ji Mu’s pulse skips. It really is dangerous.
