Synopsis
In the early autumn of 2012, Jiangyi High School welcomes a cheerful transfer student named Su Zai-zai (Zhang Miaoyi). On the first day of school, Su Zai-zai encounters the cool and aloof Zhang Lu-rang (Zhou Yiran), and falls in love with him at first sight.
Behind Lu-rang's seemingly outstanding academic performance and privileged family background, he is a "contradictory" person - someone who appears to be quite confident on the outside, yet constantly doubts himself on the inside. Due to the presence of his genius younger brother Zhang Lu-li, Lu-rang is constantly compared to him by his mother. For over a decade, Lu-rang's life has been like living inside a thick shell. He is introverted and speaks little. He looks composed and polite, but keeps everyone at a distance.
