Meng Ke, the famous "crane tail" of Qingteng No. 1 Middle School, comes from a poor family and spends all his time delivering food for living expenses. Three years ago, because she felt that her grades were too poor and her future was bleak, she used a poor performance to force away her then equally young but excellent boyfriend Lin Che. Three years later, Lin Che has become a technological upstart, while Meng Ke is still worrying about the college entrance examination. An accident occurred while delivering food, and Meng Ke activated the "Scholar's Counterattack System". The system gamifies learning: you can get points for solving puzzles, you can get rewards for progress in exams, and you can even redeem magical states such as "improved concentration" and "instantaneous memory".
The emergence of the system allowed Meng Ke to see the dawn of a counterattack, but it also attracted a counterattack from the "order defenders". The staid grade director Wang Zhiguo thinks she is "opportunistic", the school bully Zhou Zixuan regards her as a "cheat" who challenges authority, and the rich second generation Zhao Tianyu who is accustomed to bullying the weak makes things difficult for her because she steals the limelight. With the help of the system, Meng Ke completed tasks again and again, from being a dark horse in the monthly exams to becoming an Olympiad champion, constantly slapping people who looked down upon her in the face. However, each victory was accompanied by a more turbulent wave of doubts, which made her suffer from loneliness while enjoying the thrill of counterattack.
As fate would have it, Meng Ke took an order to deliver food, but it was actually delivered to Lin Che's business negotiation banquet, and he was even mistakenly regarded as Lin Che's "blind date". The former lovers reunited. One was in a suit and had an extraordinary bearing, while the other was in a takeaway suit and was in a hurry and embarrassed. Misunderstandings and self-esteem caused the two to quarrel and break up unhappy. Later, Lin Che unexpectedly became an external counselor at Qingteng No. 1 Middle School due to a project inspection, and the two were forced to intersect. Lin Che was shocked by Meng Ke's sudden improvement in performance
