[Episode 4]

As the saying goes,

"If the mountain is not high,
it becomes famous because immortals reside there.

If the water is not deep,
it becomes spiritual because dragons reside there.

If the seam is not narrow, then it is passable.

As long as there are people,
it's possible to proceed."

We're leaving, Lippy.

Take your time, bro.

Go and check.

See if they're gone.

Get back in.

Bro,

I need to use the toilet.

Just hold it in.

Gao Yuan.

You haven't answered me yet.

The letter.

Have you read the letter?

What have you been doing all this year?

I stayed at home for a period of time.

By the way,

yesterday...

It's about that girl from yesterday.

I asked around.

Her name is Ren Zhen, and she's a repeater.

Did you know each other before?

No.

We were just talking about you.

And here you are.

You're Ren Zhen, right?

I'm He Man from Class 1.

I heard that you took
the college entrance exam last year.

You missed it by six points
to get into university.

Were you distracted by something?

Listen. You're repeating another year.

So you mustn't

let anything distract you this time.

Don't repeat another year

because you miss 60 points.

Why are you walking so slowly?

You're not waiting for him, are you?

Listen.

As a repeater, every second counts.

You're different from us.

You go ahead.

Go to the morning self-study.

What did you say?

Say that again.

I said repeating...

What's wrong with being a repeater?

Listen.

This year, not only will I study well,

but I'll do whatever I want, go wherever I want,

and hang out with anyone I want.

Is that any of your business?

Stay away from me.

Also,

you pronounce my name wrong.

It's Ren Zhen, get it?

Go back and check the dictionary.

Let's go.

Ren Zhen, it is. I...

Don't you have any sense of humor?

Man!

Good morning, Ren Zhen.

-Sir.
-Good morning, sir.

Watch where you're going.

Yes, sir.

Yesterday, you still went
to the principal's office anyway, huh?

You're pretty ruthless.

Hey,

you didn't have to do that.

[Principal's Office]

Sir.

What are you doing here?

Why are you still here?

But...

Go along now.

Look at the time.

There's another half an hour
before the class starts.

Why was he wasting time here?

Nan, what's wrong?

Red Hair,

if you're not too busy,

come and pick me up.

Pick you up?

Where are you going?

I thought you were at school.

No, I'm moving my things.

I may not be able to keep working here.

Nan,

the signal is bad down here.

I'll call you back when I head upstairs later.

[Counseling Room]

What are you doing? Get down.

Hello, Ms. Song.

You're here.

You're here.

What are you doing?

Don't you know it's class time?

Sir, please come in.

Sir.

Take a look at the content for the upcoming class.

Look at the time.

Where is Mr. Hao?

Isn't he here yet?

Look at the time.

It's already nine but Mr. Hao isn't here yet.

Isn't it class time now?

[Bai Jie]
(I was fired.)

(I'm sorry for letting you down.)

[Sender: Hao Nan]

Hello?

Hello?

About the text you sent me,

what do you mean by that?

Huh? I thought I was...

When did the school fire you?

A bunch of teachers and students

are waiting for you now.

What are you doing?

Okay. Okay.

Hello?

Yes, Nan?

You said you're not going to teach anymore.

No, no. I'm going to.

Sorry to keep everyone waiting.

Let's start the class.

All rise.

Students...

Sorry about that.

Hello, fellow students.

Hello, Mr. Hao.

Please be seated.

Today,

we'll discuss a commonly tested topic
in the college entrance examination,

which is analytic geometry.

As for the key points in this section,

we need

to focus on seven of them.

Please turn to Chapter 9
of the NCEE practice book.

We'll look at the types
of recent years' questions.

Does anyone of you know how to play billiards?

Or anyone who has played before?
If so, please raise your hand.

It seems like more than half of the people have.

Sir,

what's the connection
between billiards and analytic geometry?

Are you introducing something new again?

Let me ask you this.

If a ball has infinite power,

will it always be able

to go into the pocket?

Yes, "great strength creates miracles."

Of course it can go in.

But won't the ball break
if the force is too strong?

If the number of crossing the road
is close to infinite,

the probability of being hit by a car

also approaches one.

Isn't this the same principle?

If the ball keeps bouncing infinitely,

it means it has tried all the possibilities.

So it will definitely be able to go in.

That's a concept of advanced mathematics now.

Let me draw you a diagram.

With unlimited power and continuous reflection,

the ball's trajectory can be like this,

or like this,

or like this.

It definitely looks like it'll go into the hole.

Yes.

If the ball is perpendicular
to the side of the table,

it'll keep bouncing between the two sides,

repeating the same path

and never going into the hole.

Very good.

Ren Zhen has considered
the problem very carefully.

In an ideal situation,

the ball either goes into the hole or it doesn't.

However, when considering probability,

there are infinite angles
for the ball to go into the hole.

Therefore, the probability
of it going into the hole

approaches 100%.

Wang Fang is right.

"Great strength creates miracles."

This is scientifically supported.

Fellow students, do you know

what your most precious asset is?

Being young and beautiful.

Having a sharp mind.

Kun can fart loudly.

Time and opportunities.

Very good.

Your greatest asset

is you have time and opportunities

because you're young.

Some people say being young is nothing special.

But being young is extraordinary

because it allows you

to strive

and make mistakes repeatedly,

moving towards your goals.

"Great strength creates miracles."

Please turn to page 75.

We'll discuss

the first type of common problem
in analytic geometry,

which is the equations of lines and circles.

Pass the ball!

I was wondering why the students here

are so arrogant.

How does it feel to be back teaching?

It's a bit daunting.

I can't even produce saliva

because my mouth is almost stuck together.

Really? I didn't realize that.

Earlier,

the students and the teachers
who came to observe the class

thought you taught really well.

Really?

Of course.

How terrible must the previous teacher have been?

Gosh.

You're disparaging others to elevate yourself.

Thank you

for letting me

return to teaching.

No need for that.

As for me, I'm passionate about education.

I hope our students

don't miss out

on a decent teacher.

You have always been a beacon in education.

And that hasn't changed. I know that.

Thank you very much, really.

This time,

I didn't expect when I was teaching,

I still had

that feeling of longing.

It's a bit touching.

I never asked you...

how you've been these past few years.

I've been managing on my own.

At that time, I was confused.

I opened a billiard hall

and then led a group of guys.

Back then,

I kept my hair long in the back.

I didn't pay much attention to the style.

Is the billiard hall still open?

Someone wrecked it.

I was wondering

why you agreed to come back and teach.

Well, that's not what happened.

Well,

I

only want a change of environment.

That was just a shell.

You know what I'm really like inside.

Don't worry. Now that I'm here,

I won't embarrass you. I'll definitely teach well.

I believe that.

You as a good teacher

is something I do not doubt about.

Also, I want to remind you.

This class is not easy to handle.

If you have any teaching problems,

you can consult me.

Even if you have any psychological issues,

you can still come to me for advice.

Okay?

Don't be so puzzled.

Am I charging fees?

No, I doubt your judgment

because I feel like you've set me up.

You're

just like these flowers,

the thorny bougainvillea.

Just teach well.

Are you really that childish?

Threatening me with a diary?

Do you have a persecution complex or something?

What does my action have to do
with threatening you?

I just wanted to return the diary to you.

Did you glue them back together?

You're asking the obvious.

You didn't go to the principal's office
to report me.

It proves that you're a clever and astute girl.

I have high hopes for you.

I came here to study,

not to report anyone.

Is that so?

Then why did you go to the principal's office?

It's none of your business.

You should understand my level

after today's class.

In the future, I'll definitely be your teacher.

Are you planning to keep talking to me like this?

Let's not meddle in each other's business.

Do you think that's possible?

Move aside.

Will it work if I move aside?

Do you want to ride straight through from here?

[Hong'an Qingyun High School]

I'm sorry.

Ren Zhen, you're off school?

Zhen, Lippy bought

this popsicle, especially for you.

Try it.

Well, it's like this.

We were too reckless before

and scared you.

You're a magnanimous person.

So please spare us and let it go.

Move aside.

I've talked to your cousin.

I won't meddle in your family affairs anymore.

Help us give this popsicle to Ren Zhen.

Let's go. Hurry up.

Take it easy.

Bye-bye.

What are you doing?

The exams are coming up soon.

Why is your phone still in the classroom?

From now on, all exams will strictly follow

the college entrance examination's requirements.

Hand over your phones and place them here.

Line up and be quick.

Buddy, help me hand this over.

Okay.

Line up. Line up.

This mock exam

is your first formal exam in Grade 12.

The purpose is to assess

everyone's current level

to see how much you fare

and figure your own problems
to improve your grades.

So take it seriously.

Ms. Li will definitely search me.

Hold this for me.

I'll turn in a dummy phone later.

Don't worry, leave it to me.

Whoever comes second this time will buy a meal.

Second place?

Second last.

What are you doing?

That's it?

That's it.

Just go.

Go back to your seat.

Come on, be quick about this.

The exams are coming up.

You're in Grade 12 already.

Focus on your studies.

Electronic devices

shouldn't be brought to school anymore.

Also, put your personal belongings and books

at the back of the classroom.

[During NCEE...]
Come on, move faster.

Class monitor,

can you let me take a peek later?

No way.

It's better for me to answer them myself
than copy your answers.

[Examination Subject: Chinese Language]

Can you let me see your answers?

This is the first mock exam.

Take it seriously, guys.

The exam starts now.

(Zhen, you'll be fine.)

(Zhen, apply for the medical university.)

(Zhen, remember, okay?)

(Apply to the medical university.)

(Don't be nervous.)

(I have connections.)

(Just remember that you'll be fine.)

Whose phone is that?

Didn't we collect all the phones?

Can you stop the ringing?

Why didn't you hand in your phone

before the exam?

I didn't cheat. Why should I hand in my phone?

It has nothing to do with cheating.

You're disturbing other students.

I won't hand it in.

I won't... I won't hand it in.

Listen, Wang Fang.

How dare you drop my phone!

What are you doing?

Pick up the phone for me.

Sit down.

I won't sit down!

Sit down!

Pick up the phone for me.

Are you going to get in the way of the exam?

Pick it up!

Leave the phone with me for now.

I'll give it back after the exam.

Sit down and take the exam.

Sit down.

Focus on your exam.

Sit down quickly.

Oh, it's hot.

Why are you always like this?

Look at how annoyed you are.

It's because it's hot.

The mock exam is over, right?

How did it go?

Mom,

what if I don't do well in this exam

again?

It's impossible.

Don't overthink it.

You're just putting too much pressure on yourself.

I'm going to get back to cooking.
So drink your milk quickly.

What are you thinking all day long?

If you don't think positively,

how can you do well?

Our Zhen...

Hao Nan really gets on my nerve.

Who does he think he is?

Does he think he's somebody?

If this happens again,

I'm going to confront him.

Do you believe me?

Do you?

Yeah, I believe you.

But I don't think

it's necessary.

Yeah, it's precisely not necessary.

But

did you see who called me?

Was it my dad or mom?

The phone was in the drawer.

He dropped the phone as he took it away.

I didn't get to see it.

Why don't you use my phone for a couple of days?

It's okay.

I'm worried your parents might be looking for you.

It's really okay.

My parents don't really call me.

Besides, my uncle sure is something.

He can fix this in mere minutes.

Mere minutes?

It's more lively here.

There's food and drinks.

That's all you say.

Then move here and accompany me.

I'll think about it.

You'll consider it?

I'll really consider it.

We're here.

Uncle!

It dropped on the floor.

So this...

This is my uncle, my dad's distant relative.

I'm staying in a room at his house.

On the back, upstairs.

Your parents sure are worry-free

to let you stay here alone.

I'm used to it.

Before I started talking as a kid,

they took me to work everywhere.

Finally, they left me here.

My uncle happens to have a room for me to stay in.

But your uncle fixes bicycles.

Can he fix your phone?

My uncle can fix anything.

I bet on five meat skewers

that your phone is beyond repair.

Make it ten.

Twenty.

Let's go for ten.

Make it 30!

Here you go.

Ms. Bai,

you're still here?

I'm in charge

of the psychological test paper.

I'll leave after double-checking it.

Is it convenient

for you to answer some psychological questions?

I...

Please take a seat.

I think

I'm sick.

Recently,

I've been feeling anxious, restless,

and exhausted.

Sometimes, there's even simmering anger.

I looked it up.

These are symptoms of menopause.

My symptoms all match.

But I'm still too young to have that.

Well, does this mean it's premature aging?

It's a bit scary.

When did it start?

It started after I came to Qingyun.

What does that mean?

Are you saying you have an anxiety disorder

because I brought you to Qingyun?

I never said that.

I just find it difficult

and annoying.

You see, as a teacher,

I think about managing teaching.

Of course, I have to manage other things too.

But this emphasis can't work, right?

There are too many things to oversee.

I really want to take good care of this class

and teach these students well.

But right now, I don't know

which direction to focus on.

Mr. Hao, if you ask me,

you're overthinking now.

You should relax a little.

It takes time

to build trust between people.

It's only been a few days.

And Grade 12 is at a crucial phase,

right?

Time?

Does that mean

I'm not sick, right?

You're just fine.

Give the students

and yourself some time.

So,

what about fatigue and dry mouth?

Just sleep early, wake up early,
and drink more water.

Anything else you want to ask?

Good night.

The mock exam result is out.

-It's here.
-The results are out.

Half of the Top 50

must be from Class 1, right?

Here.

We can't be compared to them.

Do you think my score of 480

can go to a first-tier university

if I work harder?

Did you see my name?

Not bad.

Where's your name?

Over there.

[Gao Yuan 0. Grade 12, Class 14]
What happened to Gao Yuan?

Why did he score zero?

He was sleeping during the exam.

I think he submitted an empty sheet.

Wow.

Wu Kai, why is your score very low?

How would I know?

Ren Zhen scored 371.

I thought she scored 530 in her NCEE.

[Ren Zhen, 371]
That's a huge difference.

That's all she scored
after studying an extra year?

It's the newcomer, right?

I thought she had good grades.

With this score,

I think she won't make it again this year.

Even if I can't get it,

I can't repeat it, either.

If you count from zero marks,

the rankings among the bottom ten
of the entire grade

are occupied by Class 14.

Isn't it always like this?

Ren Zhen.

Ren Zhen, are you okay?

I'm fine.

Ren Zhen.

How did your mock exam go?

It was okay.

No.

Ren Zhen, how did your exam go this time?

She ignored me.

What are you doing here?

I don't like the classroom. It's quiet here.

You must have seen your result.

Don't you care about the result?

The result is meaningless to me.

So you like music?

Music

is useless

for someone like me.

Such talents.

Wang Fang is truly talented.

Wang Fang from Class 14 is indeed talented.

He translated Sydney Opera House

Sydney KTV.

I can't believe he wrote KTV.

He never changed.

I really don't want to say it anymore.

Just let me be.

Also, Ren Zhen and Gao Yuan from Class 14.

Ren Zhen

scored 530 in her previous NCEE.

In just a few months,

she scored 371 marks.

Isn't that close to failing the NCEE?

Unbelievable.

It's really hard to study well.

It's really easy to go astray.

The college entrance exam is like a sieve.

Speaking of the students in Class 1,

they are the carefully selected ones.

But the students in Class 14

are like sand

that slips through the net.

Can sand turn into rocks?

That's impossible.

It's possible.

Sandstone.

I get it.

Gao Yuan

scored zero marks.

This has never happened in Qingyun before.

I just don't get it.

He took a year off from school.

How did he turn out this way?

Why did he take the year off?

Why? I...

Bai Jie.

Gao Yuan's family

had some issues.

His older brother suddenly passed away.

His father came

to inform the teachers at school.

He only let the teachers know.

His classmates can't know.

So you need to be careful about this

if you want to talk to Gao Yuan.

Okay.

Are you done signing this?

I'll help you send this.

See you, Ms. Li.

Speaking of the devil.

We were just talking about you
at the teacher's office.

Do you know why?

Yeah.

So why did you submit an empty sheet?

I won't do it again next time.

Put that aside.

Why did you do it in this exam?

I was not in a good mood that day.

Are you feeling better now?

Yes.

So tell me.

Why weren't you in a good mood that day?

Sir, please don't ask.

If you keep asking,

I'll probably be in a bad mood again.

If you have time in the future,

please care more about other students.

I'll work hard.

I won't submit an empty sheet again.

Kun,

just this?

Time for class.

There's one more.

Let's start the class.

All rise.

Hello, fellow students.

Hello, Ms. Li.

Zhao Xiaoxiao.

Yes, Ms. Li.

Why is your class not following

the school's seating arrangement?

Mr. Hao didn't ask us to switch.

Mr. Hao didn't ask you to switch?

The school wants you to switch.

Everyone, come here.

Line up in the hallway.

Bring your belongings, be quick.

Time to change seats.

Move faster!

Switch seats.

Xia Fan.

Cui Yu.

Wu Kai.

Hang Xufeng.

Present.

What's going on?

You were busy, right? So I'm helping you out.

Reorganize the seating
according to the school's requirements.

No need. It's not necessary.

I have my own ideas.

I also have my own ideas.

My idea

is to follow the school's rules.

Keep going.

Ren Zhen.

Ren Zhen.

Ren Zhen?

What are you doing?

Are you Ren Zhen?

No, I'm not.

I came to tell you that she's not here.

Okay, you can go back.

Then where is Ren Zhen?

Where is Ren Zhen?

Miss, I saw her in the restroom earlier,

and she seemed to be crying.

Why don't I'll go and check again?

I'm afraid something might have happened to her.

It's okay. You take attendance, I'll go check.

Wait a moment.
You're going to the women's restroom?

She should have come out from there, right?

It has been 20 minutes.

She should be out then. I'll go look for her.

Take attendance.

Continue.

Liu Xiaoshuang.

I've been looking for you.

You were supposed to be in class, you know?
