## Synopsis

In the early autumn of 2012, Jiangyi High School welcomes a cheerful transfer student named Su Zaizai (Zhang Miaoyi). On the first day of school, Su Zaizai encounters the cool and aloof Zhang Lurang (Zhou Yiran), and falls in love with him at first sight.
Behind Zhang Lurang'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 Luli, Zhang Lurang is constantly compared to him by his mother. For over a decade, Zhang Lurang'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.
However, Zhang Lurang's life changes when he meets the bubbly and forward Su Zaizai, and joins hands with old and new friends Gu Ran, Guan Fang, and Su Zaizai's best friend, Jiang Jia. They help him understand the meaning of one's self and he slowly begins to understand how to plan his life. Zhang LuRang and Su Zaizai work towards their goals while supporting one another, as romance begins to blossom throughout their friend group.
