Synopsis

A story about two childhood classmates, Li Yu Bing (Steven Zhang) and Tang Xue (Wu Qian), who share the same love for ice-skating. Li Yu Bing saw Tang Xue as a bully in elementary school, and later they are separated for some years. But their ice-skating careers take different paths. Li Yu Bing becomes a famous hockey player at his university, while Tang Xue gave up speed skating after an injury. When the two coincidentally meet again when they go to the same university, Li Yu Bing takes the opportunity to seek revenge. Though, bit by bit, he sees that Tang Xue is not all bad as he thought, so he helps her fall back into love with the sport she gave up on. They eventually fall in love and face many obstacles on and off the ice together.[4]
