Story
Bu Hanlu is determined to pursue her dream of becoming a pilot in her first year of high school. This desire is sparked by an incident from her childhood in which her sister, Captain Bu Hanyu of the Red Lotus Team, was abducted by aliens while defending her. Due to her intense focus on her sister’s rescue, Bu Hanlu becomes engrossed in her studies and romanticized fantasies. The school’s notorious bully Lin Qianyu accidentally crosses her path because of an enigmatic pair of gloves that create a unique bond between them.
Bu Hanlu’s determination and Lin Qianyu’s rebellious attitude clash, resulting in a series of events such as glove contests, school roof territorial disputes, and even a prank war. The drama-loving group of Bu Hanlu and the loyal gang of Lin Qianyu unexpectedly unite and become friends in the middle of the chaos.
Driven by Bu Hanlu’s ambition to start an astronomy club, the group embarks on quests to search for extraterrestrial life and unravel the mystery of a vanished telescope. A new chapter in the story of her sister’s disappearance is revealed when they discover Bu Hanlu’s belief in extraterrestrial encounters. It turns out that Lin Qianqian, the sister of Lin Qianyu, a close friend of Bu Hanyu, devised a clever scheme to grant her friend’s dying wish by creating an alien illusion in Bu Hanyu.
Bu Hanlu learns that growing up is about making lifelong friendships as well as waiting for the right answers. They learn the true meaning of loyalty, dreams, and the bonds that bind them beneath the stars as they embrace the challenges of high school life together.
