Chasing Stars and the Warm Sun

A frozen genius and a radiant ray of sunshine unexpectedly meet on their lonely paths.

Lin Xingchen is a boy with a brilliant mind and a closed-off heart, like a cold star moving through the universe on its own, rejecting all closeness and warmth. After transferring to Nancheng No. 1 High School, all he wants is to be left alone until graduation.

Jiang Haoyang is a sunny class monitor who's popular around school, with a dazzling smile and an air of having no worries. But beneath that sunshine lie the family burdens he tries desperately to hide and the hardships he has no choice but to endure.

A nationwide science and technology innovation competition forces these two very different boys to become teammates. They go from initial resistance and sharp clashes to being forced to work together through countless late nights in the lab. An unexpected breakdown on a stormy night, an awkward but sincere rescue, a crumpled old T-shirt, a bowl of ginger soup to ward off the cold... The ice begins to melt, little by little.

An injured stray kitten that unexpectedly wanders into their lives becomes the softest and most surprising bond between the two.
