Zeng Joseph's character really hits the mark with the plot of the series. Along with the different tropes the other actors put forth; such as the innocent Wan Sui, tsundere shota Wan Xing, best friend Miao Miao Miao, and the loyal Kai Xin. Sun Qian's role as Shi Fen's sister is, in my opinion, just to be his foil as Shi Fen, yet the series managed to show layers of emotion within her character. While all the character has a designated literary trope, with the synergy of the cast, that trope breaks down to pure emotion that I, as an audience, can relate to; and that is the point of entertainment. Overall, the series is really exceptional and the cast, specially Zeng Joseph, managed to recreate the upbeat, yet dramatic, teenage life.
