Episode 1 recap: Li Xiao Xiao was mocked as an older leftover woman.
During class, Ye Han, Lu Zheng, Xu Jia Cheng, and Xu Yan brought tools for a picnic, which resulted in being caught by the teacher. The teacher was surprised to find Xu Yan, such an excellent student, mixed with them. At noon, they had hotpot at school, which was unprecedented. As a punishment, they were made to stand, and the teacher couldn't imagine what they would be like when they grew up, so he helplessly left.
However, the four of them had dreams. Lu Zheng (played by Li Dian Zun) dreamed of becoming a star but ended up forming a fan club instead. Xu Jia Cheng (played by Dai Xu) dreamed of becoming a hacker but grew up to forget even computer passwords. Xu Yan (played by Liu Chang) dreamed of safeguarding peace but became a lawyer instead. Ye Han (played by Hu Yi Tian), without a dream, naturally became a magazine editor.
None of their dreams were fulfilled, but the only thing they accomplished was remaining friends. In the blink of an eye, they grew up. Li Xiao Xiao (played by Liang Jie) rode an electric bike, urging the athletes to ride faster. Their goal was to win the national championship. That night, Li Xiao Xiao laughed while reading a magazine, mocking Tong Yi Wen's old-fashioned appearance from ten years ago. However, Tong Yi Wen (played by Sun Jia Ling) didn't care, after all, she had always been a trendsetter.
The next day, there were typos in Ye Han's magazine, and despite having a print order of 30,000 copies, they had to bear the loss and reprint it. When the printing factory received the revised notification, the workers mistakenly mixed the incorrect version with the corrected magazine and sent it to the market. As a fan of "Gentleman's Attitude," Li Xiao Xiao bought the next issue of the weekly magazine at the first opportunity. However, she was mocked by the cashier aunt as an older leftover woman. Angry, she left, and later, Ye Han stood up for Li Xiao Xiao, saying the aunt was meddling.
Li Xiao Xiao told Xu Jia Cheng about the incident she was mocked, and that night, Xu Jia Cheng invited her and gave her an invitation to the company's anniversary. Xu Jia Cheng said some considerate words, which led Li Xiao Xiao to mistakenly believe that he liked her. In the end, she discovered that she was seen as a friend in his eyes, causing extreme disappointment.
Ye Han was at a café reading a competitor's magazine when he was coincidentally discovered by the rival, who criticized him harshly. Ye Han, unwilling to back down, directly fought back in anger.
Li Xiao Xiao was unsure of what to wear for the red-themed anniversary day at home, so she decided to wear red gloves. Tong Yi Wen suggested that she wear the red dress he had given her as a birthday gift, but it was too revealing, and Li Xiao Xiao didn't dare to take the challenge.
One of Li Xiao Xiao's students skipped class to play games at an internet cafe and happened to sit behind Ye Han. Neither of them wanted to back down, so they started competing against each other. Seeing that he was about to lose, Zi Xuan used his eyes to signal a companion to intentionally spill water on Ye Han, causing him to lose the bet and give his equipment to Zi Xuan. However, when Ye Han went outside, he saw Zi Xuan talking to his companion and unexpectedly realized that he had been deceived.
That night, Ye Han felt more and more frustrated, determined to find Zi Xuan and retrieve his equipment. The account name "Xiao Xiao's Love" was deeply imprinted in Ye Han's mind. The next day, Ye Han learned that the magazine with the typo had been circulated in the market, so he searched for the lucky audience member and used a gift as a return gift. Meanwhile, Li Xiao Xiao discovered that the magazine she was holding also had a typo.
Xu Jia Cheng dragged Ye Han to pick out clothes, as a magazine editor, he needed to dress appropriately. However, Ye Han completely ignored Jia Cheng's advice and followed his own preferences. Li Xiao Xiao looked through old school photos and decided to confess her feelings to Xu Jia Cheng on this anniversary day. Tong Yi Wen was stood up but decided to attend Xu Jia Cheng's company party. She gave the invitation card to Tong Yi Wen in advance. When she arrived at the venue, Xu Jia Cheng publicly escorted her inside, and Xu Yan was amazed by the radiant Li Xiao Xiao in her dress. He never expected her to look so feminine.
Tong Yi Wen entered the venue with the invitation card, mistakenly believing that Xu Jia Cheng didn't have one. She told the security guard that he was her male companion and brought him inside. This action made Xu Jia Cheng instantly fall for her, and he invited her for a drink. However, Tong Yi Wen mistook him for a fraudster.
Li Xiao Xiao waited for Xu Jia Cheng for a long time but didn't see him. When she went out to look for him, she discovered him kissing another girl, and heartbroken, she left. Coincidentally, she bumped into Ye Han.
