The Passing Years Here

Some people give it everything they've got, yet still can't get past a single exam paper.

Others stand above it all, calmly planning the road ahead.

The countdown to midterms begins.

Chen Xi is stuck at a bottleneck in physics, tormented day after day. The harder he tries, the more helpless he feels.

Ye Luocheng, from the experimental class, has grades to spare, but can't decide whether to give up his weekends to pursue academic competitions.

Separated by just one wall, they lead two entirely different lives as teenagers.

No golden finger, no earth-shaking drama, just the most honest confusion, struggles, and choices of high school life in a county town.
