[Sweet Combat]

[Episode 9]

President, I also have a younger brother.
I can understand how Ming Tian must feel.

If I were in his shoes,
I would've done the same thing.

So, if you insist that
Ming Tian withdraws from school...

I will withdraw with him.

- I'll withdraw too!
- Me too!

What do you think you're all doing?

You went to Zhiying
and stirred up trouble.

We haven't decided
how to deal with you yet

and you're already so eager
to receive punishment?

Director, President.

We learn and practice martial arts
to keep fit and defend ourselves.

But more importantly,
we do it to help others.

If we're not able to protect our families

I believe we would not be
living up to the Zhengze spirit.

If you expel us for this incident,
I would have nothing to say to that.

I see your point there.

Ming Tian, your three seniors have
made such impassioned pleas for you.

As the main instigator,
don't you have anything to say?

Please give me a chance, President.

I don't want to
leave Zhengze. I want to stay.

You wanted to leave last time.
How come you've changed your mind?

All this time, I thought I could
just grin and bear with it

and they would leave me be
after enough time has passed.

Clearly, I was wrong...

Giving in to violence

will only allow them to be
even more unbridled and insolent.

This time, even my little brother
and sister were caught up in this.

This can't continue on.

I must use my strength to protect them.

I must become someone
who won't let them down.

A brother they can be proud of.

This is my intention now.

Please allow it.

Ma Yi Chen, you were
the cause of this incident

leading to this conflict
between our schools.

Captain, you mustn't believe
Zhengze's side of the story.

He was deliberately framing me!

Everybody saw what happened.

I didn't provoke him.
He came to our doorstep!

You think to talk your way out of this?

I've seen how you treat Ming Tian.
He avoids you like the plague.

For him to have sought you out on his own

you must clearly have pushed him too far!

Captain, are you a student
of Zhiying or Zhengze?

Why do you keep defending them?

Precisely because I am
a student of Zhiying and the club captain

I am even more committed to

preserving the school's honor
and the club's reputation.

I won't allow anyone to dishonor us.

Just for honor?

Even if Ma Yi Chen is at fault,
he is still our junior.

We should be handling
this issue in private

instead of suffering
that public humiliation.

I don't understand
what your intentions could be

for you to defend Zhengze's students!

Xiao Feng, you've been
up against Fang Yu before.

You should know better than I do.

I only did this
to protect our club members

and to prevent both parties
from suffering injury.

We have so many members.

Are we not enough to
take on those three girls?

Exactly.

You have such a low opinion
of your own members.

No wonder you asked
Cheng Ya Nan's father to be your trainer!

So that's the real reason?
No wonder you keep siding with Zhengze.

You're such a traitor. How are you
still qualified to be our captain?

Ma Yi Chen is right.

To avoid further discontent

you must choose between
Cheng Ya Nan and Zhiying.

Who I choose to train under

does not create a conflict of interest
with my position as Boxing Club captain.

I have a clear conscience.
There is no need for me to choose.

Luo Guan Yan, you're very disappointing.

Those who support Xiao Feng
can come with me.

Xiao Mi, Ming Tian! You're finally out.

Sun Hao? Why are you here?

I told you to take care of
Ming Zhu and Ming Lang!

How could you leave them at the hospital?

Xiao Mi, calm down first.

The doctor said
Ming Lang could be discharged

so I took him to my house
for my mom to take care of him

before coming to find you at school.

That's better.

Thank you, Sun Hao.

Don't mention it!

What did the president say? Is it bad?

The president says to prove
my determination to stay at Zhengze

with my performance in the preliminaries.

He will pardon my offenses if I do well.

Performance in the preliminaries?

He's aware of the condition you're in.

He's not doing you any favors.
Where's the sincerity?

Sun Hao, do you think everybody
is a good-for-nothing like you?

With Fang Yu and I, there is
no such thing as mission impossible!

Don't forget about me!

In short, the three of us have
staked our futures on this.

Worst comes to worst,
we'll all drop out together.

Ming Tian, do you believe in yourself?

President, if you grant them this,
how do we explain to Zhiying?

Explain what?

We need to teach and guide the young.

I'll give the president of Zhiying
a call later and explain the situation.

If I recall

this will be the first time
since we each founded our schools.

Fang Yu!

Thank you.

For standing up for me
in the president's office.

It's nothing.
It's my duty as your senior.

I'm extremely grateful that
you all rushed to Zhiying to save me.

You're even willing to drop out for me.

I'm very touched.

- I--
- Don't get the wrong idea!

I didn't do this because I like you.

I did this because
you're a valuable asset to Zhengze.

That's why you mustn't be expelled.

That's it. Don't read too much into it.

It never crossed my mind.

Anyhow...

I have to thank you once again.

Don't get the wrong idea!
I didn't do this because I like you.

It never crossed my mind.

So Ming Tian wasn't thinking that.

I was the one who had the wrong idea.

It's better this way.

From now on, we'll get along
in whichever way we have to.

I won't be so perplexed by it anymore.

Hello, Ya Nan? What is it?

Visit Ming Lang?

Okay.

Okay, I'll meet you
at the school entrance.

Okay.

Bye.

Cheng Ya Nan.

Chun Hua? Do you need something?

Have you sorted out your thoughts yet?

What thoughts?

It's all right.

I won't force you to tell me
about this sort of thing.

I can see it all anyway!

I can tell that

he won't be able to free himself
of any ties to you in this lifetime!

Free of ties to whom?

What is she talking about?

Chun Hua? Chun Hua?

What the heck?

Have some water.

Thank you.

Our Queen has changed.

I'm saying you've developed
an immunity against cockroaches.

Drink.

Bring out your fighting spirit.

It's not that hard.

Ming Tian! Your face is
already swollen. Let me cook.

No, Xiao Mi.

Ming Lang was lucky that you came
or else things would've turned out worse.

Yes, it's a good thing
I came here in time.

Don't worry, I'll be
coming by more often.

I could even move in!

That's...

My moment of impulsiveness
put the three of you in trouble.

I'm not very good with my words.

Why don't I make dinner
for you to express my thanks?

All right. You can cook. I'll watch.

- Go ahead.
- Okay.

Ming Tian truly is the perfect hus--

No, I mean, perfect junior.

Fang Yu, she's practically
closing in on him!

If you continue doing nothing,
don't come to me with regrets later.

We'll get along in whatever way we can.

- What?
- Nothing.

Be careful.

Why is everybody acting so weird today?

Even Chun Hua asked me
if I've figured out my thoughts yet.

Are you okay?

That's not all.

She even said she can tell
I won't be free of ties with him.

What is that nonsense?

Perhaps there's always
a price to pay for one to see the truth.

But as long as
you've locked on to a target

these sacrifices will all be worthwhile.

It's now crystal clear to me that I must
become strong to protect my family.

I can't let my siblings be bullied again.

Ming Tian, you're mine.

Join our Taekwondo Club.

Interest can be nurtured.

I'm Cheng Ya Nan,
a female sophomore. Remember that.

Ming Tian, I'm not a new student

but I'd love to go to
the registrar's office with you!

There's an overwhelming disparity
between your and Fang Yu's strength

but with me as your personal trainer

- I believe--
- Thank you.

Who are you? Why are you here?

And who are you?

None of your business.

Have you trained before?

Then why are you hiding
instead of putting in your best effort?

We learn and practice martial arts
to keep fit and defend ourselves.

But more importantly,
we do it to help others.

If we're not able to protect our families

I believe we would not be
living up to the Zhengze spirit.

I must change myself for them!

Starting today, training will commence!

Ming Tian is on
the path to becoming strong!

In the heat of summer

normal college girls don
the prettiest skirts in their closets

and happily go out with their friends.

But with preliminaries close at hand

Zhengze students spend
their summers very differently.

Of all the combat sports

boxing is the sport that
can deliver results the fastest.

That's why we'll use it as
the foundation for your training. Watch.

Cheng Ya Nan, do you have to
show off before every training?

I'm sick of it even if you're not.

I'm trying to tell Ming Tian that

even though we have
less than a month left

he has to reach
half my level of strength.

Half? Are you insane?

Even if Ming Tian is naturally gifted

or the martial arts genius of the century

that'll still be impossible!

I will do my best.

Ya Nan, can you teach me too?

I want to be trained by you all too.

Ming Tian has a grudge to settle.

You? I'll teach you
when I have free time.

Sun Hao, don't you always say
you're a formidable street fighter?

That's what I thought

but after seeing your moves

I realized I'm on the level of
kindergarteners in diapers.

At least you're aware of that.

Here's what. Go to the side and
start off by doing 200 push-ups.

Go.

Get going!

Yes!

Why isn't Fang Yu here yet?

Fang Yu has company business
so she's not coming today.

No time to come?

We'll tour the hotel
and listen to reports.

Then we return to
the office in the afternoon

for a presentation on exhibition plans.

Wait, that dumb Secretary Wang
didn't leave us any time to eat.

Don't accuse him of that.

They're even organic.

- You have some too.
- Okay.

85.

Rules for the preliminaries state
10 ounce gloves are to be used.

You even get a choice
to wear protective gear

because it's not as formal as the finals.

Why?

Most athletes won't wear them.

It's because speed
is important in the prelims.

Once you wear protective gear,
you'll lose some agility

and even a second of delay can cost you.

This is for you.

Protect your teeth.

Teeth?

All right, training
officially starts now.

The most basic training is

taking a beating and
without closing your eyes.

Taking a beating?

When faced with danger,
it's instinct to close your eyes.

But if you close your eyes in the ring

first, you won't be able
to react properly

and second, you won't
see your opponent's attack.

That's why you need to
learn to keep your eyes open.

Ming Tian, take a break.

Song Xiao Mi, come demonstrate.

Sure.

You must keep your eyes open
for a sudden attack.

Song Xiao Mi, why are you
attacking so seriously?

Of course!

Ming Tian has to see the real thing
in order to understand.

Yes. Ming Tian, did you see that?
Keeping your eyes open is crucial!

You have to practice until
you can evade sneak attacks too!

Senior, it's been a long time.

Junior, your
Azure Dragon Rises From Water

wasn't perfect enough
even back in the day.

So many years have passed.
I see it's still a little off the mark.

After becoming president
of Zhiying University

have you been lax with
practicing your skills?

Senior, you're wrong to say that.

It's because Master had favored you.

Look at how effortless
your Push Hands moves are.

To the left, to the right, a light push

and clear everything away
like nothing ever happened.

It's no wonder that under your management

even if students are
out stirring up trouble

Zhengze's reputation
still continues to flourish.

Junior, every one of Zhengze's students
is sensible and knows right from wrong.

Despite the fact that they've
made their way to your school

it must've been a misunderstanding.

No matter how undisciplined
Zhiying's students might be

I believe they can't be
anywhere near bad with you in charge.

Don't you agree?

So you mean to say
my students were in the wrong.

Senior, you've picked up Taichi again?

Haven't we been practicing it all along?

Eyes open! Eyes open!

Open your eyes!

Eyes open! Eyes open!

Defense!

Push your body!

Open your eyes! Defend yourself!

Don't close your eyes!

If you can't even do this,
forget about doing anything else!

Cheng Ya Nan, use less power!

Song Xiao Mi, if you can't
maintain a trainer's perspective

then go back to your Taekwondo Club!

Again!

Eyes open!

Ming Tian.

Junior, we've been fighting
for so many years.

It's about enough already.

Since we're at this stage

then it's time for the long-standing feud
between Zhiying and Zhengze

to be settled.

Yes, yes.

They're just children having a quarrel.

As the adults,
we mustn't take it so seriously.

There aren't many martial arts schools.

Competition doesn't have to
equate to antagonism.

Let's defuse any conflicts we can.

Besides, the children will be learning
from each other's skills in the future.

Don't you agree?

Senior, we'll go with your decision.

You are very reasonable. Thank you.

Thank you.

Welcome, welcome.

Manager Chai, your previous report

didn't include a new plan to
increase the occupancy rate.

Sorry, I'll have the Planning Division
submit it as soon as possible.

I thought the boss was coming.
Turns out it's his two grandchildren.

They're so young.

The manager is
old enough to be their dad.

Be quiet. Don't let them hear you.

I heard what you just said.

Ms. Luo, is it?

How long have you been working for us?

Five years.

Five years? That's quite a long time.

Judging by your age

you must be studying
while working part-time.

From the moment he was born,
my younger brother, Fang Zhou

has shouldered the responsibility
of becoming the heir to the company.

When he was in first grade

when other children were clamoring
to go to the amusement park

he was interning in the office,
starting with serving coffee.

Now that I think about it, he has nearly
10 years of experience in the company.

During this time,
he has never slacked off.

I believe the energy he has invested
is no less than anybody else's.

Just now, his conversation with
Manager Chai had nothing to do with age

and only with position and ability.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that.

I have no intention of
criticizing or punishing you.

I just want to clear up
the misunderstanding.

I hope you will continue to
do your best for the company.

A welcome party isn't necessary
next time. Our time is valuable.

Yes.

I was so scared.

Vice Chairman Fang looks frosty
but she actually turns out to be so nice.

She wasn't like this before.

What a great change in her.

It's been eight minutes since
the meeting was supposed to start.

Where is the presenter?

Sorry, sorry.

Sorry, sorry.

There was traffic.
Sorry to take up your time.

I'll get started right away.

Sorry.

I think I forgot to bring
the document I printed.

Where's my printing card?

Do you have one?

I do.

Thank you.

After you finish printing,
you don't have to come back.

Every person here has
more seniority and higher rank than you.

Yet, we have to waste
precious time waiting for you.

You haven't even done
the basic prep work.

I don't think I can expect much
from your report either.

You may go.

I'm sorry.

- Who's next? Begin.
- Yes.

Eyes open!

Cheng Ya Nan, go easy!

Open your eyes, Ming Tian!

Yes! He did it!

Ming Tian can finally
take a break and get a drink, right?

It's already impressive that you lasted
three rounds on your first time!

You have done pretty well. You even
kept correct form the entire time.

This is rarely seen in rookies.

Take a break.

Let's go.

Ming Tian, come.

Rest.

Drink some water. I'll open it for you.

Okay.

Thank you.

Drink.

You're really sweaty. Wipe it off.

Thank you.

Over here.

Ming Tian, have you trained before?

A bit when I was a kid.

I haven't practiced again
after growing up.

Why?

Ya Nan, I'm done.

Lift weights, 50 reps.

Why are you lost in thought? Go do it.

I probably got used to
being beaten ever since I was a kid.

Enduring hardships is
all I'm good at now.

At least you don't have
to worry about that.

Ming Tian, training was tough today.

Put your leg up here.
I'll help you loosen your muscles.

Your knee must ache.

Boxing is actually a sport that
relies mainly on the lower body.

You don't normally use these muscles

so after today's rigorous training,
they'll be very sore.

Massage and stretching
are very important.

You actually have a very good foundation.

Just build up
your willpower and technique

and I believe you'll do very well.

Stop!

I'll do that.

Thinking of sneaking in
a grope? Not so easy.

Xiao Mi, don't be like this.

I'm protecting you.

Don't let her take advantage of you
and then thank her for it like a fool.

Flirt, that's enough!

Uncle Zhao, make a stop ahead.
I'm going to buy a coffee.

Hello.

What would you like?

Two coffees.

Okay, please take a seat.

Hello, here's your coffee.

Thank you.

Please enjoy.

Big Rabbit, Big Rabbit.

Thank you for saving
an ice cream for me last time.

This cup of coffee is for you.

I think you're the only one
I can talk to about some things.

Maybe it's because you look a bit like
Bonnie, a plush bunny I used to have.

Or maybe it's because
we don't know each other.

I know you can't talk.

That's okay.

It's enough for you to listen.

I have a friend.

He needs help.

I want to help him.

But he never accepts

and keeps thinking of ways to repay me.

It's probably my fault too.

I keep saying the wrong things to him.

It'll be a wonder if
he doesn't get angry.

I'm extremely grateful that
you all rushed to Zhiying to save me.

You're even willing to
drop out for me. I'm very touched.

Don't get the wrong idea!
I didn't do this because I like you.

Now I don't know what to do.

Maybe I'll have to think of
something for him to help me do.

At least he won't feel
as if he owes me then.

What do you think?

Sorry for telling you all this.

I won't keep you from your work.

Remember to drink the coffee.

Could the person
she was talking about be...

[Zhengze University]

[Zhengze Taekwondo Club]

Look at my lips.

Xiao Mi.

Xiao Mi, what are you doing?

Cheng Ya Nan wants me to train you
so you won't close your eyes.

Aren't your eyes wide open now?

Ya Nan meant when
attacks are coming at me.

Not this.

Then we'll train in a different way.

In a different way?

Listen up, everybody!

I'm reserving the area today.

Leave.

Leave!

Hurry up!

Ming Tian!

I'll teach you this.

Okay, stand steady.

Assume a defensive stance.

Good. Now bend your knees.

Okay. Now pretend this is my lips.

Lips?

Don't blink. Begin.

Ming Tian!

Ming Tian! Are you okay?

Watch carefully. Punch.

Dodge, dodge.

Punch, dodge, dodge.

Punch, dodge, dodge.

Punch!

Did you see that?

Xiao Mi! Xiao Mi!

Ming Tian, it's so great having you here.

Xiao Mi, don't make a scene.

Song Xiao Mi!

Flat on your face!

You really do flirt every chance you get.

Cheng Ya Nan, why do you
always ruin my perfect moments?
