[Episode 16]
Xiao Ze.
Did you
have fun today?
Yes.
You didn't find it too boring?
I didn't.
Well,
I'll see you tomorrow at the library?
Yeah.
Well.
Go home.
I'll go
after you leave.
Mom and dad aren't home today,
why are you studying so hard?
I'm not studying hard.
I'm just doing some reading.
Er,
where were you today?
Don't ask me.
I'm exhausted.
Did you walk a long distance?
Not really.
I don't know how to explain.
I just think
that Ji Xiao and I,
it feels like we are from different worlds.
I don't understand
the things he likes.
We went
to a museum today.
We looked at a lot of calligraphies and paintings.
And a lot of
things like bottles and jars.
But I didn't understand any of that.
I didn't find them interesting either.
Yet I had to pretend like I loved it.
It is exhausting.
You wouldn't know.
I've been paying attention to my posture all day,
my neck feels like it's gonna fall off.
Oh right.
We also went to
a restaurant.
They didn't speak Chinese there.
They all talked in French.
I didn't understand anything.
I mean,
do I have to learn a new language
just so I can eat something?
It's not that big a deal.
French is so romantic.
When I was little, my parents taught me a little bit.
That's wonderful.
Why don't my parents
know anything?
What's the use of knowing French?
Of course it's useful.
Xi Ye.
Please teach me French.
I want to be as awesome as you,
able to do everything.
Oh.
Right,
at the restaurant,
there was a blond girl
who brought Ji Xiao wine,
she even did this
to him. Ji Xiao is still a minor.
What she did was illegal, OK?
I can't believe it.
Foreigners are more open than we are.
Open?
That much?
The main thing is
Ji Xiao even...
He...
It's a social etiquette.
It doesn't mean anything.
Ji Xiao must have handled it like a gentleman.
You said the same thing
as Ji Xiao did.
You should
let Ji Xiao help you with your studies.
Get your grades up.
Don't always think about these nonsense things.
Mm.
I don't
want to get mad at him.
But
if I get
a tiny little bit
irritated sometimes,
it should
be alright, right?
Whatever makes you happy.
Why didn't you wait for me?
I didn't.
I was wrong.
Huh?
My cousin told me
that when girls are angry,
giving a straightforward apology
is always more effective.
Aren't you going to ask me why I'm angry?
Er, why
are you angry?
I...
Never mind.
Are you enjoying the show?
I...
I thought you were going to yell.
I'm not that uncivilized.
What is he doing here?
I went to his home yesterday.
Under my strict interrogation he admitted to everything.
You should admit, too.
How dare you lend Gu Xi Ye money?
You think Xiao Zhuo An's cheer leading team
isn't annoying enough yet?
Xiao Zhuo An?
What about Xiao Zhuo An?
Why does she have a cheer leading team?
Who is she cheering for?
Sis.
What are you doing here?
He Xin Liang.
Oh.
Does it have to do with the basketball team's friendly match?
Does she want to show off using the match?
Tell me.
Forget it.
You say it.
You aren't going to tell me?
OK.
I'm gonna yell now.
I...
Yes.
It's got to do with that.
Satisfied?
As I thought.
I won't let her succeed.
What's wrong with her?
Why is she so against Xiao Zhuo An, too?
What does it have to do with Xiao Zhuo An?
Ji Xiao.
Hm?
It seems like
you're using all your intelligence on studying.
Our slogan will be:
Cool and handsome Xin Liang,
Yangming's best.
We'll let everyone hear it.
OK, good.
My god.
I'm gonna win
with an unfair advantage.
It's not sure yet
who's gonna win.
The opponent is too stupid.
It'd be hard to lose even if I wanted to.
What are you trying to say?
You don't even know that He Xin Liang hates Liu Xi Chuan.
He Xin Liang and me are childhood friends.
We grew up together.
I know everything about
what he likes
and what he dislikes.
You may have been better than me before.
But now?
You still hope to win?
I don't want to play this match.
Don't throw a tantrum now.
What's the matter?
Having your own cheerleaders
has gotten to your head?
Gotten to my head my ass.
They're so noisy.
cackling like a bunch of ducks.
They're making a mess out of a sports event.
You are quite aware.
You're right.
Basketball
is a team sport.
individualism has no place in it.
The worst thing is
single-playing.
So, play a good match.
Don't let personal emotions get in between.
Lao Han.
Oh.
You're so fake.
I'm fake?
F-forget it.
Get on the field.
If a problem comes up, I'll have someone step in for you.
Let's go.
I'll let someone step in for you.
OK.
Cool and handsome Xin Liang,
Yangming's best!
Cool and handsome Xin Liang,
Yangming's best!
Cool and handsome Xin Liang.
You gotta play well.
Your new target is pursuing you.
Guys.
Be sure to pass him the ball.
Sure.
Yangming's best.
Cool and handsome Xin Liang,
Yangming's best!
Cool and handsome Xin Liang,
Yangming's best!
Did you prepare these?
I don't like it.
I know.
Xiao Zhuo An told me.
I like hers even less.
Huh?
Don't "huh" me.
I hate people doing things for show.
What kind of nonsense is this?
Do you really understand basketball?
All you're doing is watching handsome guys.
Fangirling.
You don't understand what sportsmanship is.
What basketball is.
My parents neither.
This is the first time you're telling me about yourself.
I'm just
saying it randomly.
If you like, you can watch.
He Xin Liang.
I know what to do now.
Go play basketball.
Fighting.
He Xin Liang.
I understand what sportsmanship is.
It's about
making it a fair match.
Ignore her.
Continue our slogan.
Cool and handsome Xin Liang,
Yangming's best!
Er,
something before the match.
Come here.
In a bit,
Yan Hai does the jump ball.
You two run
to the baseline quickly.
Remember,
remember to guard.
He Xin Liang.
Where are you going?
I want to experience sportsmanship too.
I want to tell them about my story.
Huh?
He Xin Liang.
He Xin Liang!
Oh great.
Oh.
You've been so busy.
You love competitions, don't you?
I'll play with you.
Are you crazy?
Why are you everywhere?
Come on.
Let's be loud.
Yan Hai!
MVP!
Yan Hai!
MVP
Yan Hai!
MVP
Yan Hai!
MVP
Yan Hai!
MVP
Yan Hai!
MVP
Yan Hai!
MVP
Yan Hai!
MVP
Yan Hai!
MVP
Where are you going?
Do you want to get to know me?
There are so many stories I have to tell you.
It's fine,
I think I know you very well already.
No. It's not fine.
It's so much fun getting to know someone.
Let's
get to know each other from the top.
He Xin Liang, you...
Stop!
Yan Ze was called away by He Xin Liang.
Why
not call me, too?
Stop the suspense.
Can you tell me now?
What happened?
Zhuo An
used to take me to this shop.
Huh?
Why did she never take me here?
There could be two reasons for it.
One,
it could be that I'm closer to her.
Shut up.
She never mentioned you much.
She almost
forgot all about you.
Then it must be the second reason.
She thinks you are too out.
What can you do?
No kind of hairdo can save you.
Hey...
But I'm different.
Right?
Talking about the
cultivation of narcissists.
They were once weaklings
bullied by everyone, too.
Yes, yes, yes.
You aren't a narcissist.
You...
are King of being thick-skinned.
Really.
When you confessed your love to me...
Stop.
That was just an accident.
I never confessed to you.
Well, that one time,
it was the first time I got rejected by a girl.
It never happened before.
What's that in your bag?
Nothing.
Did another girl write you a love letter again?
I...
Didn't I tell you to throw them away?
What's the matter?
She put in so much effort writing it.
I accepted it to be polite.
To be polite?
Do you write them back?
I...
If you write all of them back, what about me then?
How is it any of your business?
Of course it is my business.
I, Xiao Zhuo An,
am your childhood sweetheart.
So?
You can't accept them.
Being polite?
Being promiscuous is being polite now?
That's right,
We shouldn't do that.
Not rejecting them straight on
will cause the most harm.
Even if I made them all happy,
they can't make me happy.
That's why I want to be the real me.
To admit that I have many strengths
as well as countless weaknesses.
To love who I love,
to hate who I hate.
As for the others,
just let them get lost.
You understood these things quite quickly.
Oh.
You should
help enlighten Ji Xiao, too.
What about him?
To be polite
he accepts girls' phone numbers who flirt with him,
smiles at them
and accepts their drinks.
Shit.
Our Xiao Xiao Xiao is really something.
You... I...
Ji Xiao is really
too stupid to be doing that.
Shut up.
You are stupid.
Everything I say is wrong.
You're stupid too for getting angry with Ji Xiao
over such trivial things.
Hi, I'd like to have my hair washed.
Wait a second. The two seats inside are occupied.
Lao Han?
I'll wait out here.
No one's inside anymore, right?
There are.
I'll go take a look.
Stop!
Do you think I wouldn't recognize you looking like that?
Messing up your hair like this.
So ugly.
Er, I'm not talking about you.
I'm sorry.
What are you doing?
Oh.
Sir.
I dragged Yan Ze here.
It was my stupid idea.
If you want to punish someone,
punish me.
This now?
The hero saving the beauty?
Listen to me, you two.
You skipped classes,
none of you will get away with it.
Go.
Come see Mr. Zheng at the office with me.
Go, go, go.
Mr. Han.
Don't.
Please.
Forgive us.
We swear we won't do it again.
Don't beg him.
I'll take
full responsibility for it.
Don't brag.
Why don't I kneel down for you?
Let's see how you're gonna brag at the office.
Let's go then.
But sir,
speaking of time,
shouldn't you be on the basketball
field right now?
The match hasn't ended yet.
You are skipping class, too.
We can all admit
out fault to Mr. Zheng.
You...
You're blackmailing me.
Well.
Anyway,
in any case,
Mr. Han,
you skipping class
has become a fact now.
So,
why don't you
relax with us?
Alright.
I'll go wash my hair.
Wait.
You can't.
I can't indulge
this class-skipping of yours.
Go, go, go.
Go back to school.
Go
Stop.
Your hairdo, it's great.
Bye bye, bye bye.
Hurry up.
Don't act so sloppy.
Why aren't you walking?
What are you doing?
Xiao Han.
That match...
Mr. Zheng, Mr. Zheng.
He Xin Liang.
Yan Ze.
Why aren't you in class?
You skipping class?
I'm taking them
to the cafeteria to clean up,
voluntary work.
Voluntary work.
Clean up the cafeteria?
Why would you clean the cafeteria
instead of attending classes?
The cafeteria isn't under your management.
Experiencing life's hardships is what
makes you cherish
the good times of studying.
Goodbye sir.
Cleaning the cafeteria?
If it wasn't for me,
you two would be finished.
If it weren't for you,
we'd still be at the hairdresser's.
Don't 'tsk' me. You are quite in-sync, too.
You little brats.
Talking back though
you skipped class?
Get to work.
Reflect on your mistakes while you work.
Mr. Han.
How come you're so kind today
to help us clean?
We see you always working
so hard.
Please
write today's menu on the blackboard outside.
My handwriting is too...
Stop.
Thank you, Mr. Han.
Go.
Go write the menu on the blackboard.
What are you waiting for?
Are you gonna write it on my face?
Hurry up.
[Sweet and sour flour]
What are you doing?
I'm being realistic.
After eating in the cafeteria for so long,
we all know how little meat's in that
"Sweet and Sour Meat".
Alright.
Second one.
Cabbage in Oyster Sauce.
Oyster Sauce...
Ca-
bbage.
You're a genius.
Next one.
What's the next one?
There's not much else you can eat today anyway.
We're done.
Huh?
Why is your handwriting...
the same
as Ji Xiao's?
We used to practice writing together.
We used the same calligraphy book.
So,
your handwriting is the same.
Yes.
So,
have you
thanked me before?
Huh?
What do you mean?
Just...
I mean,
have you written a note
to thank me?
That's ancient history.
You still remember?
Let's go.
So it wasn't Ji Xiao who wrote that.
Last lesson
we were talking about the earth's structure.
We talked about the inner layers.
Today we're gonna talk about the outer layers.
I told you all to prepare for the lesson at home.
I wonder if you have done your homework.
Let me ask you a question.
Who can tell me
the difference between the biosphere and the other layers?
Ji Xiao.
Ji Xiao, the teachers is calling you.
I'm sorry, Ms.
I was distracted.
I'm so hungry.
Let's go eat at the cafeteria.
Go my ass.
With the way you changed that menu,
I've lost all my appetite.
Can't even speak the truth nowadays.
It's so difficult to be a good guy.
Shut up.
What did you say?
Now you suddenly listen to people?
Open your mouth. Speak clearly.
Where did you go eat with Ji Xiao last time?
Well,
that French restaurant by the river.
Let's go.
Let's go eat there.
No.
I'm telling you to go. Cut this bullshit.
Stand up where you fell.
Didn't you tell me to take on responsibility?
I'm taking on responsibility.
When I was young I received a lot of scolding
for being naughty.
But I
never regretted doing those things.
I really miss
the you who got scolded with me
