Who says dating someone at a different school in the same city counts as a long-distance relationship? When Lin Xiaoman, a forensic science student at Jing City Medical University, meets Wang Bin, a loyal, top-ranking student in the electronic information engineering department at Jing City University of Science and Technology, a lively and sweet college romance begins.
As Lin Xiaoman enters college, her life fills with two completely different sides.
By day, she is a calm and meticulous aspiring forensic scientist in anatomy class, carefully studying livor mortis and specimens. By evening, she is an agile young woman in the judo club, easily kicking a training sandbag flying. Every weekend, she changes into a fresh-looking JK uniform and heads to the University of Science and Technology to see her boyfriend, Wang Bin. His dormmates are always teasing her, calling her a family member who has come to visit him in prison. Wang Bin, once introverted and taciturn, is still awkward on his feet during street dance club practice. When his roommates repeatedly ask him for advice on pursuing girls, he can only answer in all seriousness that they should focus on their studies, earning a round of laughter and teasing.
The four roommates in Lin Xiaoman's dorm, Room 202, become her steadfast support. They weigh in on her relationship, share study tips, and always have her back. Meanwhile, her old friends in Jincheng are each beginning a new chapter in life: Lin Xiaowei and Li Wei are happily newlyweds, Wang Xiaohu is about to welcome a baby, and Zhang Qiang and Liu Ying have finally gotten engaged after a long courtship. The old gang still keep one another company in their group chat, and the lively banter never stops.
There are always little storms along the way in a relationship. A junior student who gets close to Wang Bin, a senior student who has a crush on Xiaoman, and one funny fit of jealousy or little test after another all become seasonings that bring the two closer. They study side by side at the library, share a serving of braised pork in the cafeteria, wish each other goodnight across their screens, and share awkward but heartfelt hugs when they meet, even if only for a short while.
