[Episode 15]
Sir.
Er,
what were you doing out on this important
class monitor election day?
I went to help out the sports department.
Stop.
Listen,
don't keep
going to the sports department.
You should put the idea of
playing basketball out of your head quickly.
Enter that competition thing quickly and get a guaranteed
admission into Tsinghua.
I went to help Yan Ze.
Help Yan Ze?
That's fine then.
Zhuo An, please continue.
I could start first.
No need.
I can continue.
I'm passionate and open. I have the courage to make the impossible possible.
I will organize class activities efficiently
and prevent all of you from getting distracted by tiresome duties
so you can concentrate on your studies and
realize your full potential for the college entrance examination.
Thank you.
Alright, Xi Ye, your turn.
I'm an introverted person.
So introverted that even after more than a year has passed
a lot of you still do not know me
and even hate me.
I had to muster up the courage
to run for class monitor today.
I don't think that
the responsibility of a monitor is the taking on of everything
but to fully mobilize the students' engagement.
Join the class activities
and show your strengths.
Make more friends through your teamwork
and create beautiful memories
during the three years
of high school in class three,
it's not all about the studying.
Thank you.
Good.
Alright.
The two candidates
have finished their brilliant speeches.
So, students,
let's start the voting.
We will be voting anonymously.
Which means
that you can choose whoever you want.
After you've written down your vote,
the students in the last row
will help me collect them.
Pass them on to me face down.
Who did you vote for?
None of your business.
Ok.
Now we'll
begin counting the votes.
First vote
Yan Ze?
Who did that?
Who was it?
The class monitor election is a very serious business.
No nonsense is allowed.
Listen,
I'll compare the handwriting
and find out who did this.
Just wait.
Jeez.
This vote is invalid.
We'll start again.
First vote.
Yan Ze again?
But...
I told you not to mess around.
What are you doing?
Yan Ze isn't in our class anymore.
Mr. Zheng.
Even though Yan Ze isn't in our class
but she
will always live on in our heart, right? Yes.
So we gotta
count this vote.
Stop this nonsense.
How is this nonsense?
This is the will of the people.
What are you doing?
He Xin Liang.
Mr. Zheng.
Call the votes.
You are messing around.
You are...
I bet the third vote isn't Yan Ze.
Yan Ze again.
Yan...
Yan Ze.
Well well.
Yan Ze.
Xiao Zhuo An.
One for Xiao Zhuo An.
Write it down.
At least someone is sensible.
Xiao Zhuo An.
Last vote.
Abstention.
He Xin Liang, why did you do that?
No reason.
She's more modest than you.
What are you...
I know.
You
like Yan Ze.
You hate losing Yan Ze.
I do understand
your feeling.
But Yan Ze isn't in our class anymore.
Oh.
Guys,
firstly, I'm really grateful to you all.
What you did,
I feel like everything was worth it.
But
I'm not in class three anymore.
Even though I'd really like to continue to serve you,
but people
need to look to the future.
Yan Ze said it so well.
Aright,
let's choose Yan Ze
as class three's lifelong honorary class monitor.
Alright? Please applaud.
Great.
Satisfied now?
But our class' work
needs to continue normally.
Thus,
as is tradition, we still need to choose a new class monitor.
Based on the voting result
Xiao Zhuo An will be our...
I don't want to.
What?
I don't want to.
If the class
didn't vote for me,
me being the class monitor loses all meaning.
I hope you wouldn't
just settle for the second best.
I'm not the second best.
Mr. Zheng.
Why don't you
let Gu Xi Ye be the class monitor?
She's been in this class longer than me.
She's more familiar with the class than me.
I request to be the commissary in charge of sports.
I'll guide my classmates to stay fit and healthy.
Let's put that sports commissary aside for now.
First settle the class monitor issue.
Well, Xi Ye,
so
you be the class monitor.
I mean,
what are you doing?
If you have the guts
don't elect a class monitor at all.
Study by yourself,
manage everything yourself.
This is outrageous.
Come to my office.
You...
Mr. Zheng, I swear,
I did not tell anyone to vote me. I only went to see Xi Ye.
I wrote Xi Ye's speech for her.
I didn't know who would win...
Can't you just transfer back?
Huh?
You make me so furious.
Mr. Zheng.
There's something I wanted to say.
Yan Ze can stay.
It's good that she hears this.
Mr. Zheng.
I know that I'm new in the class.
But I want to be friends with everyone.
I hope that the teachers
and classmates
and the ones who were once my friends
won't treat me differently
and alienate me.
No, no.
Zhuo An.
Don't misunderstand.
Today's situation
was not aimed at you.
Most importantly,
it was
er,
it's that Yan Ze is
very popular.
In my class,
I mean, in our class,
she's gotten along very well
with her classmates this past year.
I know.
That's why I wanted Yan Ze
to listen too.
I'm still the Xiao Zhuo An from before.
I haven't changed.
I hope that you can treat me like you did before.
Don't be biased.
No, no.
Wait,
you two
knew each other?
Do you think I'm still the Xiao Zhuo An from before?
Of course.
Alright.
But we aren't the same as we were before.
Xiao Zhuo An.
Please grow up.
You really have changed.
But Gu Xi Ye hasn't.
I noticed.
Look ahead.
Mr. Han.
For today's fitness test
that's 800 for girls and 1000 for boys.
For next lesson it's
sit-ups and standing long jumps for 1 minute.
Understand?
Understood.
Got any problem with that?
What's the matter with you?
Special occasions again?
Yeah.
Alright, go
register with the sports commissary later.
And what's the matter with you?
Can't run that much.
Yeah, can't run that much.
I keep telling you to exercise more.
Look at yourselves.
Spots commissary.
Yes.
Organize the team training.
They must run the full 1000 meters.
Ok.
Mr. Han.
I think it's everyone's responsibility to help the students
improve physical fitness.
He Xin Liang
is excellent in sports and
he's physically very fit.
I think that
he has the responsibility to help the students
and pass on his expertise.
That's why I request
He Xin Liang's assistance
with helping the students train.
Good point. Good point.
Alright.
You have my permission.
But...
Lao Han,
you can't do that.
Lao...
What do you mean, Lao Han?
Who did you call Lao Han?
Don't embarrass your basketball team.
You listen to me,
if those guys don't manage the run,
I'll hold you accountable.
Alright.
The boys come with me.
Go warm up at the starting line.
The girls follow the sports commissary.
Stretch your legs.
Get warmed up.
Don't injure yourself when you run.
Remember, to pass the test it's 3 minutes for
1000 meters.
2.5 minutes to get the full score.
What's the matter with you guys?
What do you mean you can't run that much?
Xi Ye.
You were looking for me?
Yes.
Xiao Ze.
Is it still possible to join the sports department now?
Now?
The sport department isn't recruiting new people right now.
You want to join?
Yeah.
But you're in junior year already.
Even if we were to recruit people,
it'd be from sophomore year.
Aren't you the department head?
Can't you do something?
Of course I could.
But
why do you want to join the sports department?
It's so rare
to see you feeling pressured by someone.
You guys,
I have to see you on the field.
If you aren't there,
you'll have me to answer to.
Suit yourselves.
He Xin Liang.
Yan Ze.
Come here.
What is it, Xin Liang?
She...
If there's an issue, come at me.
You're really something.
You got yourself a protector.
You got backup so you decided to join hands to bully me?
Who bullied you?
Stop acting all pitiful.
You did.
And you.
What does Ji Xiao have to do with anything?
Yeah.
What have I got to do with anything?
You just do.
You do...
Before, you always helped me no matter what happened.
Look at you now.
Oh.
You've changed.
So tell us,
what happened?
I can't believe this.
He's such a bad actor. How can you believe him?
Xiao Ze.
Say, what happened?
You don't know?
Yan Ze pulled some strings for Gu Xi Ye and Xiao Zhuo An.
One became the sports department's secretary,
the other one the commissary.
The two of them bully me all day.
I can't even play basketball anymore,
and during practice I get ordered around.
I'm so pitiful.
Hey.
Stop accusing other people.
Xiao Zhuo An asked Mr. Zheng herself.
It's got nothing to do with me.
See.
She admitted it.
Gu Xi Ye's matter
was her alone.
Xiao Ze.
No matter what,
pulling strings
is not a good thing to do.
What can I do?
He Xin Liang is your friend.
But Xi Ye is my friend.
How could I refuse?
What you did
was abusing your power.
Make up for it.
Keep dreaming.
Hey.
Look, she's bullying me.
Xiao Ze.
Yes,
Xi Ye is your friend.
But Xin Liang
finally got the chance to play basketball.
Bothering him like this...
But I...
Xin Liang.
Lao Han, are you crazy?
You scared me.
Say,
was it you who
pulled some strings and got Gu Xi Ye into the sports department?
So that's what this is about.
We
are a nonprofit student organization,
from department head to secretary,
we serve the students for free.
Pulling strings?
We're lucky if anyone wants to join.
Look at you people.
What an attitude.
Anyway, I don't agree to this.
Why?
What did Xi Ye do to you?
Why are you all so against her?
I'm not against Gu Xi Ye.
The main thing is
the cultural department
is having issues about
this matter.
What does this have to do with them?
The cultural department has
Ms. Gu Yu...
Ms. Gu Yu is protecting that Xiao girl...
so I'm helping Ms. Gu Yu.
Why do you always keep helping the other side?
No wonder
Liu Xi Chuan said that the sports department is so hopeless.
So are you kicking her out or not?
No.
You...
If you don't, I'll...
I'll tell Mr. Zheng about
you pulling strings.
Ok.
Tell him.
Then I'll
post the photos of you
courting Ms. Gu Yu online.
Then I'll...
Alright.
Xi Ye.
Don't take it to heart.
I'm fine.
I'm used to it.
Say,
Mr. Han
always treats you so well,
but now he suddenly turns on you.
Everyone is like that.
It's fine.
As beautiful as you are,
everyone loves you.
You get tired of pretty things after two glances.
But truly loving someone
is something else entirely.
Next week
is our team's friendly match.
It's mostly for the
senior high students
who'll soon take the examinations for students with special talent in sports.
So for that
I will
choose a few good players of our sophomore and junior year.
Give your best at the training.
After all,
doing actual matches has its benefits.
Cheer up.
Understood?
Understood.
Come on.
Let's do some warm-ups.
Come on.
Neck exercises.
Here.
Ready.
1, 2, 3, 4.
5, 6, 7, 8.
2, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6, 7, 8.
3.
Xin Liang.
She's here for you again.
5, 6, 7, 8.
4.
2.
Not bad.
You're quite popular.
Xiao Zhuo An.
Stop embarrassing me here.
Take it down.
Hey.
136.
137.
138.
This isn't enough.
Is that all there is?
Adding yours and mine,
that's all we got.
Xi Ye.
How about we give up?
Xiao Zhuo An
is really just showing off after suddenly becoming rich.
With the little allowance we have
we can't compete with her.
But I just can't accept defeat.
Wait a second.
I have
200 yuan here.
I wanted to
save it to buy birthday presents for you and Ji Xiao.
Well,
use it.
But
Ji Xiao...
It's fine.
Take it quickly.
Or else
I'm gonna regret it in a second.
Xiao Ze.
Take it.
Jeez.
Are you gonna eat or not?
Give it to me if you aren't.
What's the matter with you?
What problem can't be fixed by a bowl of fried rice?
Then get another bowl.
Lao Han.
Hm?
I feel so annoyed.
Why would you be?
He's being harassed
by two great beauties.
I just want to train in peace.
I don't want to be surrounded by girls.
Showing off because you're handsome?
That's right.
I envy you.
I also want to know what it
feels like having all the world's attention.
I'm so envious.
The world's attention.
All you do is being sarcastic.
Why don't you help me?
Lao Han.
He means you.
Even so,
there's nothing I can do.
Gu Xi Ye belongs to the sports department.
Xiao Zhuo An
is Ms. Gu Yu's student.
What can I do?
I'm not gonna
be in this match.
How dare you.
Your fried rice.
Who ordered it?
Morning.
Ji...
Ji Xiao.
You...
Wait for me.
I'll be right back.
Don't you girls usually need
a lot of time to get dressed up?
I got a good basis.
I don't need all that stuff.
What are you doing here so early?
You didn't tell me in advance.
I wanted to
give you a surprise.
What surprise?
Let me take you to a cool place.
Let's go.
How about
we go look at bronze ware.
Xiao Ze,
Are you very tired?
No.
Do you
not like today's activities?
No, no.
I like it.
I love it.
Really?
Yes.
That's great.
I was worried the whole time,
thinking you'd find it boring.
I wouldn't
Ji Xiao.
Hm?
I can't read this.
Here.
Just tell me what you like and what you don't like to eat.
Ok?
What were they trying to say?
Do they think I'm dead?
And what were you trying to say?
Acting like I'm not here?
What?
Why would you be dead?
Xiao Ze.
Do you like them?
Even though I can't read this,
but I know what this
means.
Why are you laughing?
Why didn't you reject them?
They think that
you accept them.
Xiao Ze.
Let's keep our voice down.
The people around us
are eating.
Actually,
that right now was just a social etiquette.
There's nothing more to it.
Besides,
I won't contact them.
Xiao Ze.
Use the other knife.
It will make it easier.
I'm full.
This song I
gift to my
lovely girl.
If you love someone, fight for it.
If you want something, work hard for it.
Being able to go all out and shine bright for your dream
is a
boldness that doesn't fit in.
