Zhang Chen is a seasoned bureaucrat who spent so long writing reports that his soul nearly left his body. His greatest regret in life is that he was hopeless at math in his senior year of high school and too timid to pursue his unattainable first love. Then one accident, or rather, an “accident” he engineered himself, sends him transmigrating back to age seventeen! The moment he arrives, his best friend Chen Xing smacks him in the face, leaving him stunned. “Holy crap! Zhang Chen, can you teleport?!” There's no time to explain. Zhang Chen fixes his gaze on the boy ahead, head down as he kicks a pebble, reads the gold-edition Boys & Girls, and always has his math tests covered in red Xs. His resentment from half a lifetime erupts! Zhang Chen rushes over and smacks the bewildered boy, leaving him stunned. “Kid, look in the mirror and see who I am!” When his past self meets his future “loser,” it's like two planets colliding! “You're hopeless at math!” “You live like the walking dead!” They can't stand each other? Then they'll switch lives for a week! The adult soul returns to senior year to cram math and chase his dream girl, while the teenage soul heads into the future to experience a “successful” life! The result? Adult Zhang Chen, armed with maxed-out skills in politics, history, and geography, still blanks out and breaks into a cold sweat in Teacher Wang's math class, and his pursuit of his first love ends in a spectacularly embarrassing fiasco... Turns out transmigration can't cure the cowardice and fear of math buried deep in his bones! Meanwhile, the teenage Zhang Chen, expecting to enjoy the fruits of victory, gets battered by a mortgage, his boss's yelling, and official documents he can't understand. His youthful spirit is crushed in three days... An adult's “freedom” is all a load of crap!
