Assigned as his assistant, she confirms her worst fears: he really is a total screw-up. But when he poses an enigmatic question about time and reveals that the world's light is merely an illusion cast by those who rule from the shadows, Lin Meng realizes there's far more to this hopeless fool than meets the eye. What if the biggest failure is actually the one person who sees the truth?
