Synopsis

Xia Yumeng, a brainy cartoonist, has been a "salty fish" all her life. She creates a villain, Shen Mingxi, in her cartoon work.

Recap

During the summer vacation, art student Xia Yumeng created a romantic comic book titled "Surprise, the Campus Prince Loves Me" based on the prototype of the school's heartthrob Bai Ze. In the comic, Bai Ze and Xia Yumeng were about to kiss sweetly when Shen Mingxi appeared and ruined the moment. To get back at Shen Mingxi, Xia Yumeng added a plot twist that made him weak on rainy days. Suddenly, lightning struck and Xia Yumeng's comic book was blown away. One page of the comic was blown into the darkness and the character of Shen Mingxi disappeared. Xia Yumeng woke up from her dream to find out that she had been sleeping.

Unexpectedly, on the first day of school, Xia Yumeng met a male student who looked exactly like the character of Shen Mingxi in her comic book. He would turn evil whenever he saw Bai Ze and would fight him on campus. In a critical moment, Xia Yumeng stopped him.

Xia Yumeng follows Shen Mingxi and realizes that everything around him is the same as in her comic book, confirming that he is the person who came from her comic book world to reality. Shen Mingxi asks Xia Yumeng about the reason for all his unusual behavior, but to deceive him, she lies and claims that he lost his memory and they are childhood friends, promising to help him recover his memory.

To stop Shen Mingxi from reenacting the fighting scenes from her comic book on campus, Xia Yumeng intercepts other students. However, she accidentally bumps into Bai Ze and pretends to be injured. Bai Ze takes her to the infirmary and adds her on WeChat. While she is happy, she finds out that Shen Mingxi is still fighting with other students. Xia Yumeng remembers the blackening plotline for Shen Mingxi in her comic book and decides to remove him from the story.

Xia Yumeng was carrying her milk tea and found Shen Mingxi waiting for her at the convenience store. She was forced to promise to help Shen Mingxi regain his memory. To cover up her lie, Xia Yumeng deliberately greeted the old man in the community and asked him to tell Shen Mingxi that she was his childhood friend. Unexpectedly, when they asked together, the old man told Shen Mingxi that Xia Yumeng was his ex-girlfriend. Xia Yumeng went to find a human model with her roommate. When Shen Mingxi came to find Xia Yumeng, she pushed him away, saying that she would accompany him to find his memory after school. After school, Xia Yumeng accidentally met Bai Ze outside the medical classroom. Bai Ze apologized for the incident when he bumped into Xia Yumeng last time and volunteered to be her model. While they were drawing, Shen Mingxi suddenly interrupted and saw Bai Ze, causing him to undergo a sudden change in personality. Xia Yumeng stopped him and the jealous Shen Mingxi demanded that Xia Yumeng live with him.

Xia Yumeng proposes to sign a contract with Shen Mingxi, with the consequence of being afflicted by the backlash of the contract if violated. In school, Shen Mingxi keeps his distance from Xia Yumeng, following the agreement. However, he sees her drawing with Bai Ze and gets jealous. Shen Mingxi walks over and applies to be their model, but Xia Yumeng cannot stop looking at him. When they return to the villa, Shen Mingxi tells Xia Yumeng that he doesn't understand why he targets Bai Ze. Xia Yumeng remembers the blackening scene she set for Shen Mingxi in the comic and worries, deciding to stay with Shen Mingxi for the next few days. Xia Yumeng's worries become a reality in class, but due to her interference, the blackening event does not go smoothly. Xia Yumeng realizes that this is not a solution and talks to Shen Mingxi, expressing her hope that he can be friends with Bai Ze.

Shen Mingxi's roommate Han Feiyang is pursuing Lin Luoluo, so Shen Mingxi asks him for advice and learns that in order to change his relationship with Xia Yumeng, he should become friends with her friends. So Shen Mingxi bribes his roommates with food, and the other girls tell him that Xia Yumeng has a crush on someone. Shen Mingxi says he knows she likes Bai Ze and that he likes Bai Ze too. Shen Mingxi takes everyone to the place where he and Bai Ze rehearse for the welcoming party and publicly announces that Xia Yumeng is closer to him than just a friend, leaving everyone confused. Xia Yumeng and Bai Ze are having lunch in the cafeteria when Shen Mingxi shows up. Xia Yumeng notices that Shen Mingxi and Bai Ze are getting closer and Shen Mingxi is trying hard to be nice to Bai Ze, even ignoring Xia Yumeng. Xia Yumeng becomes increasingly angry as she sees this scene.

Shen Mingxi helps Lin Luoluo in the lab and she falls in love with him. Xia Yumeng is intercepted by thugs looking for Lin Luoluo at school, but Shen Mingxi appears, apologizes to the thugs, and takes Xia Yumeng away. He explains to Xia Yumeng that his apology was because he promised to control his temper, but after Xia Yumeng leaves, Shen Mingxi becomes angry and beats up three thugs. When Xia Yumeng returns to the art studio, she finds that it's raining outside and worries about Shen Mingxi's safety, so she calls him. Lin Luoluo answers the phone and tells Xia Yumeng that Shen Mingxi is injured. When Xia Yumeng goes to the infirmary, she finds out that Shen Mingxi has gone back to fight again. She is worried about his injury, but also praises his chivalry in fighting. Shen Mingxi doesn't want Xia Yumeng to worry about him, so he performs a magic trick to make her laugh. Back at the villa, Xia Yumeng helps Shen Mingxi apply medicine, and their ambiguous feelings for each other grow stronger during the process.

After returning to school, Xia Yumeng decided to take responsibility for what was about to happen to Han Feiyang. She found him rehearsing in the classroom for a performance and pretended to be a friend of Lin Luoluo to brainwash him. She successfully convinced him to change the performance to a dance. While having lunch in the cafeteria, Xia Yumeng reconciled Shen Mingxi and Han Feiyang and informed Han Feiyang that Shen Mingxi had been injured while helping Lin Luoluo. Xia Yumeng taught Han Feiyang to dance in the dance studio, refused Shen Mingxi's lunch invitation, and experimented with magic with Bai Ze. They also painted together, all of which Shen Mingxi saw. At the backstage of the welcome party, Shen Mingxi questioned Xia Yumeng about who she really liked. Their argument resulted in Han Feiyang's dance being ruined. At this moment, in front of the entire school, Shen Mingxi kissed Xia Yumeng.

After being misunderstood by her classmates several times, Xia Yumeng breaks down and meets Bai Ze. She explains to him that her prank on the night of the party was just a joke, and Bai Ze tells her that he plans to recommend Shen Mingxi to a medical conference. Xia Yumeng then meets Han Feiyang and tells him that everyone thinks she and Shen Mingxi are in a relationship, which makes Lin Luoluo give up on him, and it becomes Han Feiyang's chance to be with her. Suddenly, it starts raining, and Xia Yumeng goes to find Shen Mingxi, who is in a physical education class. However, he accidentally twists his hand during class. Shen Mingxi tells Xia Yumeng that he is not afraid of the rain because of her, and they become closer. On the way home, Xia Yumeng confesses the truth about the comic to Shen Mingxi, but she unexpectedly finds out that he had already known the truth. Xia Yumeng gets angry that Shen Mingxi didn't tell her and leaves.

Xia Yumeng searched for Shen Mingxi at the villa and the classroom but couldn't find him. After returning to the dormitory, she received a call informing her that he was attempting suicide by scissors at the park. Upon arriving at the scene, Xia Yumeng was heartbroken to see the situation. Shen Mingxi stubbornly stated that since he was set up as a bad guy, he would play the role of a bad guy. Shen Mingxi caused a scene in the park and tried various methods of suicide, all of which ended in failure. Xia Yumeng told him that he couldn't die. Shen Mingxi stood up for a flower seller and fought off some thugs in the park, and Han Feiyang also joined in. Xia Yumeng received another call and learned that Shen Mingxi and Han Feiyang were taken to the police station. Xia Yumeng and Shen Mingxi returned to the villa, and Xia Yumeng was angry that Shen Mingxi made her worry. Shen Mingxi told her his thoughts and worries, and Xia Yumeng told him that he should live for himself.

At noon, the dormitory sisters, Lin Luoluo and several boys, had an awkward meal together. Yuan Yilin developed feelings for Han Feiyang. Lin Luoluo invited Shen Mingxi to help her with an experiment, but he refused. Han Feiyang offered to help instead, and Shen Mingxi returned to assist Lin Luoluo and Han Feiyang with the experiment when he learned that Xia Yumeng had gone home. Xia Yumeng had dinner with her father at home and brought some food he had cooked for Shen Mingxi to eat. At school, Yuan Yilin saw Shen Mingxi walking with Lin Luoluo while Han Feiyang was sitting alone reading ahead. She asked Shen Mingxi to tell Han Feiyang not to use love as an excuse to study or study as an excuse to love, and Han Feiyang agreed. In the following days, Lin Luoluo, Han Feiyang, Shen Mingxi, and Bai Ze studied and researched the experiment together, while Xia Yumeng worked hard to complete her editorial tasks on time.
