A must watch, no need of a second thought.

The story revolves around a confused and hardworking third year transfer student xia xiajou, who is transferred right before the gaokao and finds it hard to adjust in the new environment and people.

Xia xiajou meets her two neighbours at the same time new classmates, the gentleman cheng lang and the straightforward lu shiyi, who are brothers more than being best friends living together since their childhood.

Xiajou falls for cheng lang right after she saw her for the very first time (something that can be called love at first sight ). On contrast she dislikes lu shiyi from the very starting, who picks on hers and keeps on irritating her throughout the story, but later on they become really good friends although he still irritates her in a cute way.

She also meets Qui le tao/ Tao Tao, who later on becomes her female best friend. She's brave, smart at the same time naive (I have my reasons to say so, well I can tell you unless you want some spoilers !!!! ), And Bao Bao the last ranking student of the class, lazy, sweet and talkative ( to some extent ), he seems to be the careless one but has his own share of difficulties in life.

Together they face struggle, sorrow, sweetness and reality of life.

There are few more character in the story you need to know :

• Lin you : The very first impression of her seemed like the regular bitch who is also the love rival of the FL, but for a change she wasn't a bitch but definitely was the love rival of the FL to some extent as Cheng lang had already fallen for her (FL and lin you were really good friends, no rivalary ).

• Huang jun : He was the roommate of the ML, the friendship of cheng lang, lu shiyi and him was heartwarming and awesome. He also was Tao Tao's boyfriend. Although he was a real jerk in terms of relationships ( He had 101 ways but he chose to be a jerk instead ), but he had his share of sufferings for that and I really appreciate the development of his character.

• Shen duo : She was the bele of the medical branch as well as the basketball club vice president who liked lu shiyi. Trust me she really had less screen presence but was one of the best characters.

• Cheng le : He wasn't that important character but still had some influence in the story. He was the monitor of xiajou's old school and liked her.

Positive factors :

• The parent-children relationship was heartwarming and too close to the reality. I loved the relationship between Cheng lang and her mother personally.

• Also, xiajou's mother was way too partial between her and her brother but one could see the development in between their chemistry gradually. Also, it was way too realistic at least for me I could feel that, as it is similar to some extent from the life of mine.

• Some people might think opposite of me, but the one sided love factor was one of the best reasons to watch the drama, as one can feel the emotions they were feeling.

• Shen duol ikes lu shiyi, Lu shiyi likes Xiajuo, Xiajuo likes Cheng lang, Cheng lang likes lin you and lin you already had a boyfriend. This mess was actually interesting to watch. Also, there was Cheng le who liked Xiao ju.

That's what I meant by one sided love in the paragraph above. Although it seems to be too frustrating to watch so much love angles, but trust me you will feel exactly what the characters are feeling, because of their amazing acting and the way the story is been portrayed.

Negative factors :

• Throughout the story I was trying really hard to see the FL putting some efforts on the ML, but it wasn't seen anywhere.

• It was only about the ML falling for the FL, I couldn't see it coming from the FL. ( I am talking about the way love should have been developed b/w them ).

Overall :

Overall it's a must watch. That's it, no need for a second thought just go and watch it I'm sure you'll love it.

Although all of a sudden the FL realises her feelings for ML, as for me it didn't felt smooth and natural though, looked kinda forced or something, the director and team tried really hard to make us feel FL's feelings for ML, but I guess it went kinda wrong, nevertheless all the moments before the confession of ML was smooth,cute, heartwarming and perfect. I loved the way they irritate each other and still care,think and unknowingly love each other. The trio ML, FL and CL ( Cheng lang, well that's what he's called, CL ) was way too awesome.

Exceptional !!!

The more I think about how short it is the more I become sad. It's such a masterpiece that it feels like it never finishes.

There's a 21st student in the class and no one has any damn idea about whom it could be??, Ummm maybe a ghost or maybe no, there have always been 21 of us, that's must be merely a misunderstanding, but wait .... why did they mentioned there were only 20 student, don't they see that we have 21 in our attendance record, I guess we should count, wait, 1,2,3,4............. 18,19,20,21, huh?? 21, See I told you it's 21 of us, ahhh let it go, that's definitely a misunderstanding, no, no.... wait, then why are these creepy things happening around us all of a sudden, why others aren't able to se all 21 of us, I guess there's definitely a ghost in here!!!! It's all tangled how would we solve this??

That's all a big tangled confusion and question, whether there really is a ghost in there or not, if yes then who??

It gets more and more interesting as the episodes go far, And most importantly it's all logical no dumb bound story. I suggest you should definitely be watching this.

An awesome and worth watching drama

I'm writing this review while watching the drama, that is to say that I haven't completed it yet. I think I'm gonna give it a try (writing it in this way), so that it becomes more detailed (don't worry it's definitely gonna be spoiler free) and my most accurate thought about it.
As you must've read the sypnosis already, lets skip that part and jump directly into the must watch reasons of the drama without giving a second thought :

1. The FL and ML really breaks the stereotype :

• She doesn't have bangs and a short hair, well that was more than enough for me to catch attention.
• She isn't the poor academic student (well that's really rare, isn't it ?).
• Infact she's a normal student, nor so good and so bad either ( The perfect balance ).
• ML isn't the topper of the class nor is he any celebrity kinda student. ( FL is shown as a famous student instead, but in a normal way no hype and all ).
• He isn't cold and talks with everyone, unlike other dramas where the ML is portrayed like some god or legend, hard to reach and all.
