(Nanyang's summers are scorching. When seventeen-year-old Xiang Shihan meets eighteen-year-old Qi Huai, love becomes as hot as a Nanyang summer.) The heroine is sweet, adorable, and lovesick. She's only brave when it comes to him. She falls for the hero at first sight, then discovers he's her senior. She starts paying attention to him, sometimes on purpose, sometimes without meaning to, and wears a lovestruck grin every day. Later, she learns that he already likes someone else.
She still refuses to give up and tries to become the kind of person he would like. But he tells her she's one of a kind and doesn't need to become someone else.
As they spend sweet everyday moments together, the heroine keeps thinking she understands him. Then the hero takes time off to compete in an esports tournament, and she realizes she doesn't know him as well as she thought.
She says, "You like gaming, so I'll learn for you. You like playing marksmen, so I can play support and stick by your side."
But he says, "I want you to follow your own path."
The hero knows the heroine likes him, but he doesn't think he's good enough yet. He wants to improve himself before facing her again, so he can give her a better life. (Note: His family is doing quite well. He just wants to make it on his own!)
The heroine mistakes this for a lack of interest and deliberately distances herself from him.
Later, the hero graduates. The heroine, still upset, ignores him and starts dating someone else.
The hero is heartbroken, but he still loves her. He works hard and eventually joins forces with a friend to start a game development company.
Then, by chance, the two meet again and clear up their misunderstanding.
The heroine says, "To meet you again, I used up all my luck."
The hero says, "Then... leave the rest to me."
Theme: Give me back my youth
