Qiao Muyu is good looking, has excellent grades, and seems perfect in every way except for the fact that He is a terminal stage “Top aholic” (obsessed with being #1). On the surface, he is calm, breezy, and effortlessly cool in reality, He studies like a madman in private to maintain his reign at the top of the grade.
