Synopsis
15-year-old "good girl" Qian Jiayue enters a prestigious high school and faces various academic challenges. Her confession to her neighbor and top student, Xiao Han, ends in failure. Her clever yet trouble-prone younger "brother," Maotou, adds to the chaos. Along the way, Qian Jiayue befriends the bold and spirited Chen Mo, and the two girls grow through their friendship.
Meanwhile, the parents are experiencing their own challenges. Chen Xiue, who returned to the city after working as a "sent-down youth," struggles to mend the gap with her daughter. Chen Pengyu, proud of his elite status, realizes the generational differences after clashing with his daughter, Chen Mo. Strong-willed Guan Aiping raises Xiao Han alone after being laid off, and eventually forms a new family with Zhang Qiming, who learns to connect with his mischievous son, Maotou.
Though times change, the warmth of familial love and the caring bonds between neighbors remain constant.
