Episode 1
Life was not as exciting as she thought. Xu Yong Xin was on a blind date.
A bouquet of flowers was delivered to her and it was from Zheng Da Wei, a friend from high school.
He said to meet up at their school auditorium as he was giving a speech to student.
This brought back memories when they were in high school.
Xu Yong Xi was the class vice monitor. Their teacher tasked her to give the graded test paper back to the absent Du Ya Xiu.
Despite being classmate almost seatmates, she does not really know how he looks like because he was has a book or arms around his face while he sleeps during class.
She found him though in a computer centre. She gave him the test paper which he refused to take.
She was still arguing about it to him when a fight broke out in the center.
Du Ya Xiu took her by the hand and ran with her.
They were running so fast, Yong Xin fell and bruised her knee.
Anyway she was so annoyed, and told him so. She said she was giving him the paper for him to see where he made mistake and can improve.
She then left him and a notebook on the street where she fell.
He was very interested in reading her notebook.
The next morning, her childhood friend, Zheng Da Wei was strutting like a peacock and was so sure that the screaming girls were due to his gorgeousness.
He was very surprised when the girls surrounded a boy, who Yong Xin saw was Du Ya Xiu.

This episode is so cute.
Du Ya Xiu used the notebook to turn Yong Xin into his little slave.
He sends her to get him drinks and food.
Zheng Da Wei was very interested to find out how his best friend had become a slave to Du Ya Xiu.
But he too became friends with Du Ya Xiu when he helped Du Ya Xiu fight off a gang.
Yong Xin tried to find Du Ya Xiu’s house so she could sneak in to find her notebook.
But she got hopelessly lost.
Du Ya Xiu found her in his neighbourhood and had to take her to the bus stop.
She said that her parents are waiting for her at home.
When he said not was waiting for him, she congratulated him for his freedom.
But he said you are the lucky one. It is a blessing to have someone wait for you.
When he got home he was all alone but not lonely this time because he remembered as he looked at the box of bandage how Yong Xin tenderly put one in his face.

When Xuan asked her to set her up with Du Ya Xiu on a date, Yong Xin did everything she could including enlisting the help of Dawei.
Du Ya Xiu was very unhappy that they deceived him. Instead of playing basketball, they took him to watch the meteor shower with Xuan.

Yu Xuan ended up marrying Yong Xin’s brother.
And Du Ya Xiu and Yu Xuan did end up together but it took ten years.
