Who says a man needs to be muscular? I am determined to become more masculine. My name is Tie Xiong. Who says a woman has to be adorable and soft-spoken? I will do as I please. My name is Lin Fu Nan. Tie Xiong has feelings for a girl named Ke Er, who is passionate about anime and manga cosplay. In an effort to get closer to her, he learned crafts, joined the cosplay club, and dressed up as Saber. However, he did not win her heart. Instead of winning her over with his newfound feminine hobbies and beauty, he became her best friend, earned the nickname "Teddy Bear," and was mistakenly thought to be gay. To make matters worse, he ended up helping her pursue Yong Jun, a basketball player at their school. It was then that he realized he had been approaching her the wrong way. She desired a manly, sweaty-smelling man, not a sweet little teddy bear. Just when he was ready to give up, he discovered hope in a manga titled "The Real Man." A chance meeting with the artist Lin Fu Nan revealed that this rugged author would be his salvation.
