and YF has these hilarious brain drama whenever he's in a situation he doesn't like
for example when he saw that CR was bored by a popularity poll between him and the band leader(the rich prince), he had this dumb wuxia scenario where he was trying to escape with her
he played a little game in his mind, "I will turn my head & open my eyes, and if she is looking at me, it would mean I could..."
then the teacher called her up to answer a question and as she rose from her seat she just happened to look his way
look how happy this idiot is
Yet he flipped on his promise and refused to join the band.
"Why?"
"Because people don't like me."
"Why do you have so little faith in others? How do you know that without even trying?"
"...You are even more beautiful than before. As for the band, I won't be going. That's it."
"I want... want to... " *inches closer*
(blasts otp energy from the background
They made a bet.
She will prove she can change, and if she did, he will join the school band.
And then she came back with a new look.
"I could not believe my very own eyes."
(she was the childhood goddess for many lmao the bilibili comments are on fire during this scene)
Feeling trapped in her "perfect girl" image and his "I bet you can never change" comment, she was determined to hand him defeat.
Meanwhile he was already dreaming of her, annoyed by her suggestion that he should join the school band, & also puzzled by an indescribable feeling.
She was assigned to help with Ye Feng's schoolwork. And starting from here you get to witness the evolution of this bad boy x good girl pair. They start off hating each other, he mocks her obedience, she criticizes his unruliness. But then his teasing turned playful & intimate.
The series centers around a highschool boy band named "OPEN" and their counterpart "Happy Girls" from another school.
It's a fascinating window into turn-of-cen Chinese teenager aesthetics before JP subculture tropes dominated the scene.
anyway here's my otp
they spend a lot of time on the top floor of their school building
he's a tsundere loner with a bad boy/cool musician aura & daddy issues, but then he fell for her and became an idiot
"I just want to know if I am also in his heart."
(Alyssa Chia eye appreciation because yes
