Synopsis (Spoilers!)
Cheng Xiao Si (Cyndi Wang) is a naive, ordinary and candid girl. After being dumped for the 17th time, she is convinced that she is cursed, because her relationships never last longer than 3 months. On the day she was dumped she bumped into He Qun (Nicholas Teo), who was running away from paparazzi. When they fell to the ground, they ended up accidentally kissing. The paparazzi captured the kiss on film. He Qun then grabs Xiao Si so she doesn't say something bad to the paparazzi.
He Qun coincidentally has also lost his girlfriend Rita (Zhao Hong Siao), on the same day but the media are not aware. The next day the headline is "Young Heavenly King cheats, kisses secret lover on the street." He Qun's manager Vincent is worried about He Qun's future career, and denies that He Qun and Rita were ever involved and that Xiao Shi is He Qun's real girlfriend and that the two had being dating for a year and were also engaged.
Ah Zhe (Gino) is He Qun's younger brother and also the reason Rita left He Qun. Rita had grown up with He Qun and Ah Zhe, but she had always been in love with Ah Zhe, despite him being in love with Xiao Rou. Six years ago when Ah Zhe, He Qun, Rita, Xiao Rou, and two others went on a trip together to practice their music, a tragic accident occured. While crossing a flooded stream, He Qun loses his grip on Xiao Rou's hand, and she falls in the water. Xiao Rou was not found. Ah Zhe blames He Qun and swears to never call him his brother ever again. Ah Zhe makes He Qun leave their band and that's why He Qun has a separate solo career as an idol.
Complicating matters further, Ah Zhe is also Xiao Si's first crush. She fell in love when he stopped a javelin from piercing her skull on her first day of university. Ah Zhe rejected her. Xiao Si swore that one day he will see what's so great about her and will fall in love with her.
Due to all the drama from the announcement of engagement, He Qun was forced to transfer to a different university. But as fate would have it He Qun ends up being transferred to Xiao Si's university... which is also the same university that Ah Zhe & Rita go to.
After a time He Qun falls in love with Xiao Si and Xiao Si also has feelings for him but both don´t notice that and a funny lovestory begins.....

Review
As this drama is still airing, this will not be a completely coherent and balanced review - it might get better....or it might get worse. Currently, there's a very strong suggestion of "Full House" about the series, as that drama also featured a idol's arranged marriage and the plucky girl who eventually won his heart. Nicholas Teo even looks a little like Rain. The inclusion of the bitter brother and the fickle ex-girlfriend further round out the tried and true formula of romantic comedies, and the viewer can only expect more love triangle (square?) entanglements as the lead quartet figure out each other's hearts.
