Middle-aged father Chen Jianguo has always felt guilty about his daughter Xiaoman—after his wife's early death, he was too busy working to be present for her growth. Until a quarrel before Xiaoman's college entrance exam, when she cried, "You've never been my dad," he collapsed and unexpectedly traveled back to 18, becoming Xiaoman's classmate at the same high school! To make amends, he hides his "dad" identity and becomes her "protective deskmate," using his adult wisdom to help her with school bullying and academic anxiety. But he always reveals his "old father" nature at critical moments—like secretly heating milk for her or glaring at boys who get close. As they spend time together, he discovers that Xiaoman's rebellion stems from a desire for love, and his past "absence" has left a gap in her heart. When his identity is about to be exposed, can he use his 18-year-old body to complete a 20-year-late "fatherly redemption"?
