Lin Xiaoman, a cheerful and lively sophomore with a bit of a scatterbrained streak, she struggles with science but excels at the humanities. She is the class’s designated mood-maker. She has a crush on the physics competition prodigy in the neighboring class, but thinks her average grades make her unworthy of him, so she can only admire him from afar. Then she unexpectedly discovers that she and the male lead are gaming buddies. In the game, she plays a cool, confident older-sister type.
Chen Yu, a senior and a leading candidate for a guaranteed place at university through the physics competition, is known for his cool, distant manner and as the untouchable heartthrob of the school. In truth, he is sensitive and thoughtful, but his focus on the competition makes him seem a little hard to approach. He has long worked seamlessly online with a gaming partner, the female lead, and admires her strategies and her endearing contrast: shy offline, but a chatterbox online. By chance, he discovers that the girl he met offline is his gaming partner, and realizes she has been paying attention to him.
