Manhua Storyline:
This manhua is about a second-year university student named Yang Yu. He is an extremely pleasant man which makes him quite approachable. When the new term starts, he gets the responsibility of looking after the freshmen and orienting them properly.
Among them, there is a guy named Huan Li who is totally the opposite of Yang. He is tall, aloof and always gives the cold shoulder to Yang. Yang has never done anything to displease him, so he doesn’t quite understand his behaviour.
But he doesn’t give up instantly. He believes that Huan can get a new perspective after meeting him which can change how he views love.
