This book is not a campus story, and there are no supernatural powers. Although some scenes take place at school, they're only there to set up the story. Young people born in the 1980s are rebellious and stylish, and each has their own distinctive ideas about studies, life, love, and career.
After failing the college entrance exam, Chen Qiang saw his dream of attending a sports university fall apart. His parents were deeply disappointed in him. Under pressure from his family, he had no choice but to enroll in a private university, bringing his good friend Hong Yu along with him. He resolved to make something of himself and prove what he could do.
Less than two months after enrollment, Chen Qiang got into a fight with a fellow student while attending the school's martial arts association. He stepped in to defend Hong Yu and injured two people, one of them seriously. The school took the incident seriously, and Chen Qiang was expelled.
Faced with this sudden setback, Chen Qiang was at a loss and ashamed to face his family's expectations. In the eyes of his teachers and classmates, he became the model of a bad student: rebellious and conceited. Helpless, he left campus, holding on to his father's words: "A person can starve to death, but must never break the law." He kept striving forward. By his side was his girlfriend, Zhang Xue, who quietly did everything she could for him. When she learned about Chen Qiang's situation, she did everything possible to help him through it. Moved by Zhang Xue's gentle and kind nature, Chen Qiang changed completely in both his character and his way of life.
As Chen Qiang once said: "I've loved, I've hurt, and society once cast me aside. But now I still live my own way, and I can still smile as I go on."
