Emotional Reunion Sparked by Childhood Memories
In episode five, Bai Meng, acting on Xing Zhizhi’s request, delivers a special gift to Qin Fei: a paper crane containing a plum candy.

This touching gesture leads to an emotional moment where Qin Fei kisses Xing Zhizhi, calling him her lucky star.
Hidden Feelings Unveiled Amidst Past Misunderstandings
The reunion takes an interesting turn when Xing Zhizhi confronts Qin Fei about why she left during their school’s singing competition. Qin Fei reveals that her transfer was due to her father’s tragic death in a car accident while buying her dance shoes. However, she quickly lightens the mood by teasing that these were just childhood stories and that Xing Zhizhi has grown from being a follower to a fan. Xing Zhizhi admits he never wanted to be just a fan; he genuinely wants to pursue Qin Fei. Misunderstanding his seriousness, he jokes about it, leaving Qin Fei relieved and smiling.
This episode highlights the deepening relationship between Qin Fei and Xing Zhizhi, setting the stage for more emotional developments in the series.
