Synopsis and Plot Summary

Freshman Shao Nian met Lin Xiao because of a misunderstanding. He hoped they could be good friends because they share the same hobbies, but faced rejection each time.

Lin Xiao (Chen Mu) has a high self-esteem while Shao Nian (Xu Xinchi) has a very straightforward personality. The mysterious Wu Minghao (Wang Yijun) captured "tiger girl" Xie Tingfeng's (Wang Yueyi) heart. He is considerate but actually tends to politely keep everyone else at arm's length. After many absurd situations, these classmates gradually became friends in a story that depicts their warm and beautiful university life.
