[Sporty girl vs. icy top student]
Tong Jianing, the female lead: “Mom! Dad! I got into No. 1 High School! It was worth giving up anime for that last month...” Sob.
Mu Qing, the male lead, gets into No. 1 High School with the highest score in the city.
See how two strangers who once had nothing to do with each other become the most important people in each other's lives.
“I fell for the top student on the first day of school.”
No, no, no. I don't mean me. I mean that crazy girl Tong Jianing. She's a basketball recruit who only squeezed into No. 1 High thanks to bonus points. On the first day of school, she bumped into someone while looking at the class assignments. She looked up and saw a guy who looked like the perfect high school heartthrob, with a mole beside the bridge of his nose. Only later did she find out he was the city's top student, just sixteen points shy of a perfect score.
Their classrooms were three floors apart. She was downstairs in the worst class, Class 16. He was upstairs in the best one.
They should have had nothing to do with each other. But Class 16 and Class 1 had PE together during their first year. She sprained her ankle playing basketball, and without a word, he carried her to the infirmary. Somehow, after that, she started going to the library every day at lunch, and he was always sitting by the window. When she couldn't solve a problem, he took her scratch paper, wrote a couple of lines, and handed it back. Once the problem was done, there'd be a little something extra in the margin... someone's name.
She thought she'd hidden her secret crush pretty well.
Until one day, he suddenly closed his book and asked, “When are you going to ask me?”
“Ask you what?”
“Whether I like you.”
The pen fell from her hand and hit the floor.
She thought she'd been pining for him alone. Turns out he'd fallen for her ages ago!
