Luo Bisheng

Biodata

Background / History

Luo Bisheng grew up in a wealthy family but felt unable to meet his father’s expectations or match the accomplishments of his Third Uncle and Uncle Wen. His first relationship ended after his closest friend and the girl he liked betrayed him. He stopped speaking not only to her but to everyone in his class, severely damaging his ability to trust others 218 220.

A later relationship with a female influencer involved spending millions on virtual gifts and being swindled. After she disappeared with gold, he pretended to prepare seriously for the college entrance examinations while secretly saving his meal allowance and planning violent revenge. He later credited his mother, Third Uncle, and Uncle Wen with helping him change course 220 222 458.

He began working as an internet cafe attendant during his sophomore year. Hu Yang used work assignments to push him into unfamiliar social situations, including a test requiring him to borrow two cases of Red Bull rather than buy them. Luo spent at least half an hour outside Wang Xiaoliang’s supermarket before entering; Wang’s immediate agreement helped him pass the test and become a duty manager 85 458.

Appearance

• Looked barely over twenty when Chen Zhifei first met him in person 475.
• Became more attentive to his hair and clothing while pursuing Cheng Huan, contrasting with his formerly scruffy appearance after naps 343.
• Noticeably gained weight after returning home, where his mother repeatedly encouraged him to eat 529.

Personality

Luo Bisheng’s severe nervousness around strangers contrasts with his warmth among friends. During a group lunch, introducing himself caused stammering, heavy sweating, and visible embarrassment; with Wang Xiaoliang, he could be an almost nonstop talker. Wang regarded him as loyal, clever, and kind 188.

He expresses affection directly, sometimes awkwardly. He insisted that Wang was someone he deeply cared about, offered money when he thought Wang was struggling, and became upset when Wang concealed difficulties rather than letting him share the burden 218 343.

His recovery is gradual rather than effortless. He deliberately begins discussing experiences he finds shameful, later learns to handle meals and work conversations naturally, but still needs encouragement to perform publicly or approach romantic interests 222 475 537 649.

By the later story, his motivation shifts from proving detractors wrong to enjoying work and achievement for their own sake. He also stops resenting the woman who conned him, instead regretting the distress he caused his parents 545 688.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Education and Cheng Huan

Luo initially plans to earn a bachelor’s degree from Jingke and secretly prepare for Jiang University’s graduate entrance examination. Meeting Cheng Huan gives him renewed motivation when he feels tempted to abandon his studies, partly because he believes his qualifications are inadequate for her 222 259.

He asks Wang to arrange more gatherings so he can get to know Cheng Huan before approaching her alone. Their relationship develops, and Tian Jiayi later says Cheng Huan already likes him. A frightening bungee-jumping incident, during which she sees his supportive behavior, helps bring them closer 230 376.

By their graduation trip to Fucheng, they are a couple. Luo has concealed his family’s wealth because his earlier relationships left him afraid of being pursued for money. He intends to tell Cheng Huan the truth after her birthday and is willing to explain his past relationships if she asks 456 457 458.
