[Our Generation]

[Episode 8]

I think your grades this time are quite good.

You didn't work hard and still ranked fifth from last.

I worked hard. I really tried my best!

What class are you in?

You're in Class 18 at Experimental High School!

It's good enough if you're not last.

Anyway, I'm very satisfied.

I think it's good enough. Isn't it?

This has nothing to do with how hard you try.

So am I just stupid?

Let's eat now.

That's right. Have some soup first.

It smells great! What kind of soup is this?

Pig brain soup. It's been specially stewed for you.

We eat brain to nourish the brain, isn't that so?

You're still calling me stupid!

What are you two laughing about?

My parents stewed pig brain soup out of love.

With such bad grades, I'm lucky they didn't beat me.

Cherry, stop acting as if your mom would ever hit you.

I'm the one who has endured parental beatings all these years,

but I wasn't beaten this time.

When my parents saw Yu Qiao ranked 15th from last,

they assumed the test must have been challenging.

Not being last is already a win for me.

Are you actually proud of that?

Yu Qiao, what happened with your exam?

I heard you intentionally scored low.

This isn't your usual performance.

No way!

Me? Would I intentionally score low?

I just didn't do well this time,

so I made up an excuse when people asked.

I had to protect my reputation, didn't I?

There are 15 of us in this tutoring class.

Three are from Qunshan.

That's one-fifth!

We must study hard. We can't embarrass Qunshan again. Got it?

Why don't I ask my mom to stew more pig brain soup

for all three of us when I get home?

I don't need it. Save it for yourself.

Seriously now, Yu Qiao.

Whatever happens, stop fighting at school.

Didn't I learn this from you?

I have many good traits. Why did you have to pick the worst one?

Do you have that many good traits for me to pick from?

- Give me the paper! - I'm not done yet.

Who wants yours?

Are you still copying answers here? How pathetic.

Yu Qiao, why aren't you done yet?

You're usually good at physics.

Sir, I'm just checking my answers.

Stop checking! Hand it in.

All right.

Stop writing! I can't wait much longer, either.

Why don't you just copy mine?

Leave now. Don't worry about me.

Hurry up!

All right, that's fine! You can go back.

All right. Thank you, Sir.

Lin Qi Le, Cai Fang Yuan, what's taking so long? Are you done yet?

I'll be done soon.

Hand it in now. Let me check it.

You're on your own now.

Look! You can't rely solely on memorizing.

You should think more abstractly.

This small ball falls naturally and hits the spring.

The spring compresses and the elastic force increases.

On my way!

Cherry! Cherry! Yu Qiao's here.

All right.

Yu Qiao, help me persuade her.

She has been studying non-stop since she returned this afternoon.

Don't worry, Aunt Juan! Leave this to me.

All right, I'll get back to work. Go on by yourself.

All right.

What's up?

Aren't you being too hard on yourself?

Don't bother me!

If you do, I'll give you a hard time.

Calm down! I'm here to help you.

Help me?

I wasn't good at physics at first either,

but I found a method that worked for me, and I can share it with you.

- Will you? - There are conditions!

- Tell me. - Sports day is coming up.

I'm signing up for basketball. You should cheer for me.

Is that it?

I would still cheer for you even if you didn't ask.

You must keep your word.

Understanding physics requires intuition.

Intuition?

You said you would teach me physics.

Why are we playing with balloons?

Lin Cherry, your task is to keep the balloon from falling.

Catch it!

What are we doing?

Feeling the air resistance and experiencing the charm of physics.

Are you fooling around with me?

Lin Cherry, trust me.

If you don't do this today,

you probably won't solve the physics problems tomorrow.

But if you can keep the balloon off the ground for 30 minutes,

you will probably solve all the physics problems tomorrow.

If you don't believe me, go home now.

Really?

Fine!

If I can't solve the physics problems tomorrow,

the number of times I hit the balloon today, is how many times I'll hit you tomorrow.

Stop talking! Just feel it with your heart.

Here.

What are you doing?

If you want to play together, play nicely.

What did the balloon ever do to you?

Yu Qiao, I just realized you're very boring.

What's going on with that ring back tone?

What ring back tone?

Lin Cherry, call me.

Call you?

Why are you laughing?

I heard this ring back tone three times this week.

I was wondering…

I didn't sing the song. Why blame me?

I called the service center.

They said it's a customized ring back tone set for me by User 6019.

The cost is ten dollars per song!

Yu Qiao, do you have a grudge against me?

Are you trying to disgust me with these tricks?

Yu Qiao, you're really something. How could you do this to us?

Ring back tones just for Qin Ye Yun, but not for us?

This is nonsense! It must've been Yu Jin messing around.

Yu Jin?

Did you let Yu Jin play with your phone?

- Three songs cost $30! Cancel it for me now! - Calm down. Take it easy—

My cell phone credit is already low anyway.

Where is your cell phone?

In my bag.

Here. Don't be mad.

Yu Jin is unbelievable. He always messes things up.

Just cancel it.

Why? We should drain his phone credit completely.

Fine! Let's drain his phone credit, then.

Did you cancel it?

Lin Cherry, see for yourself!

What's wrong?

[Compatibility Test] [Your compatibility with Lin Qi Le is 80%.]

Don't say another word!

You…

Qin Ye Yun! Qin…

Don't run! Listen to me!

What's there to explain?

That was obviously a joke!

Are you really mad at me?

If you're mad at me, I'm even angrier!

What do you want from me? To be happy for you?

Should I set a ring back tone for you to cheer you on?

No!

Ms. Qin Ye Yun, our main task now is studying.

Stop imagining such nonsense.

What about Jiang Qiao Xi? Is he also "nonsense" to you?

Stop lying to yourself.

Why?

What did you two do?

What's going on?

Why did you leave without us this morning?

Cherry, who upset you?

No one upset me. I just want to be alone.

- We… What did we do to you? - That's right.

I want to focus on studying.

Lin Qi Le, that's an ungrateful thing to say.

How exactly are we affecting your studies?

You just are.

I'm also helping you to study.

Your help is actually just a distraction.

That balloon-toss idea…

What's that about?

The balloon toss was my last resort when I had no other options!

Stop talking! I know how to study properly.

Just leave me alone.

Especially you, Yu Qiao. Stop bothering me!

What did you do?

(What could I do? I didn't do anything!)

(Then why is she mad at you?)

Today, I came to school by myself.

I don't plan to eat with Yu Qiao and the others again.

The classmates see me as a nuisance anyway. I won't try to fit in with them,

so now I can only eat with you.

Who asked you to distance yourself from Yu Qiao?

No one asked you to make these changes!

Lin Cherry, do you think you're being selfless and impressive?

Are you going to eat with me or not?

You don't want them to laugh at me, do you?

Are you going to take care of me or not?

Look at how Qin Ye Yun treats Cherry…

It's just like how Cherry treats us!

What's going on between Cherry and Qin Ye Yun?

I get it now. The problem isn't that we offended Cherry.

She's having a conflict with Qin Ye Yun!

This is collateral damage!

Students, this is our sports day registration form.

You should seriously consider the events you signed up for,

show team spirit, and bring honor to our class!

Lin Qi Le, I didn't expect you to be so enthusiastic!

You signed up for the basketball cheer squad! I can't wait to see your performance.

When did I sign up for the cheer squad?

Why did she join the cheer squad?

Lin Qi Le has poor grades. How can she still try to get attention?

Isn't she afraid? She might be transferred out of Class 18.

I signed you up.

Didn't you say

that you would cheer for me if I joined the basketball team?

So I signed you up.

I don't want to! I have to study.

I don't have time. I have to study.

I can't afford to perform poorly on the next monthly exam!

Learning is a long process.

Don't push yourself too hard.

Joining the cheer squad is good for your physical and mental health!

Seriously, trust me.

Yu Qiao, from this point on, please stop interfering with my matters.

Thank you.

Guess who else signed up for the basketball cheer squad?

Who?

Lin Qi Le.

How dare she sign up?

Does she even know how to dance?

Xiao Man, why are all your accessories so unique?

I've never seen this kind of bracelet in Jialin City.

If you like it, wear it. Here!

How could I accept this? It must be expensive.

It's not that expensive.

My dad brought this back for me when he went abroad.

He travels frequently. He always brings me these little trinkets.

You can wear it if you like.

Thank you, Xiao Man. You're always so generous.

No problem. We're all part of the same cheer squad.

Look! She's acting weird again. So boring!

She was also on our cheer squad last year,

but she barely said more than five sentences to us.

Madam, I'm Lin Qi Le from Class 18.

A classmate played a prank on me and signed me up for the basketball cheer squad.

I don't actually want to participate.

Lin Qi Le, I know you.

When selecting members, we consider everyone's body type.

You have a petite frame, and you're well-suited for lifting stunts.

Since you're here, join the practice.

Madam! Madam! Madam!

I'm scared of heights.

I can't do lifts.

My main issue is that my grades have dropped recently.

Although my grades have dropped,

I still think I should participate in school activities.

- I'll overcome my fears. I can do this. - Good.

I'll go join the squad then.

Did you bring your gym clothes?

Yes!

All right.

What are you listening to?

What are you listening to?

Lin Qi Le actually signed up, too.

She is such an attention-seeker.

Signups are open.

Anyone who meets the height and build requirements can join.

Can I stand with you later?

If you don't reply, I'll consider it a yes.

That's so loud!

Come on! Count the beat yourselves!

Count! Count!

What? What?

Stomp with all your might!

Lin Cherry said she wasn't going to join.

I knew it! How could she not join when something like this comes up?

She loved to show off like that ever since she was a child.

Cherry was always the most enthusiastic at every Children's Day celebration.

I insisted on signing Lin Cherry up precisely because Qin Ye Yun joined.

This will help mend their relationship.

As long as they work it out, the rest of us won't get involved in it.

What?

Wh-what?

What?

What?

- That's right! - All right.

What?

Good practice, everyone! Today, I'll set the formation!

The best dancer will be chosen as the lead dancer for this routine!

Coach, why choose at all?

Obviously, it should be Xiao Man.

Xiao Man should be in the center.

Come on!

Teacher! Coach!

Qin Ye Yun dances well, and she is also pretty!

She could also be the lead dancer!

What are you doing?

Qin Ye Yun is definitely a good fit.

You did great last year.

However, Cen Xiao Man is also good. It depends on how you perform!

Keep practicing, everyone!

Everyone has a chance.

Today we'll practice the four-person lift formation.

First, form your own groups. Decide who will lift and who will lean back.

The four of you, right?

Qin Ye Yun, Lin Qi Le, are you both in the same group?

Coach, Lin Qi Le and I aren't…

Coach, we're in the same group.

That won't work. Two people can't execute the lift.

You're a six-person group.

Wu Shuang, Han Xiao Xiao, join this group.

Coach, I'm not very familiar with Qin Ye Yun or Lin Qi Le.

What does that have to do with anything?

This is a school event, not children playing house.

Coach, I mean, I'm not very close with Qin Ye Yun and Lin Qi Le.

Without basic mutual trust, how can I let them catch me?

Besides, they wouldn't dare let me catch them, either.

If you have so many objections, I can let you perform solo on stage.

What if I jump backward? Will you catch me?

Will you? That height looks scary.

Why is it scary? I dance well enough, so I'm not afraid of this.

Qin Ye Yun, what do you mean?

As in literally. Don't you understand?

Were your nine years of education wasted?

Enough! Enough! Enough!

Wu Shuang, Qin Ye Yun, talk to each other properly.

We're all in the same squad.

I'll decide! You two go to that group.

Coach!

Wu Shuang, if you keep making remarks, you can stop training.

I won't coach you anymore.

Fine! Let's go over there.

Over here!

♫ What am I singing? ♫

♫ Everything feels like… ♫

♫ It turns out you are my hit song ♫

♫ What are you saying? ♫

♫ After hearing it just once, I remember it ♫

♫ After hearing it twice, I'm hooked ♫

♫ What am I doing? ♫

♫ Everything feels like… ♫

♫ The whole city plays the hit love song ♫

♫ You are the master ♫

♫ It was so intense I lost my mind ♫

♫ Now I can't stop thinking about you ♫

All right! Let's take a break, everyone.

All right!

- Are you okay? - I'm fine.

This is hopeless. We're doomed!

Qin Ye Yun, are you all right?

Please teach me again. Otherwise, they'll keep laughing at me.

All these up-and-down moves confuse me.

I can't keep up.

They should laugh at you!

Your limbs look as if they just grew yesterday!

- Qin Ye Yun. - Coach.

Not bad. You knew Lin Qi Le was struggling, yet you still taught her the moves.

Your tone wasn't friendly, but your attitude deserves recognition.

- Coach… - Yes, Coach! Qin Ye Yun was just teaching me.

She not only mastered her own moves, but she also helped me.

She is both capable and caring.

Look! She is not just graceful but also kind-hearted.

She is almost perfect as a lead dancer.

Great. Very good.

By the way, Qin Ye Yun is willing to stay after evening self-study every day

to help me practice for an extra half hour and ensure that I learn.

That's great. Make sure to guide Lin Qi Le well.

Good luck!

Let's go!

Qin Ye Yun,

do you know why I asked you to stay and practice with me after evening self-study?

I don't want to know.

Because I wanted to walk home with you after school.

Do you know why I agreed to practice at night?

Why?

Stop! Stop! No way!

This way, your screams won't bother anyone.

I asked you to train me, not torture me.

Crawl before you walk. Take it or leave it.

Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!

Are we done? How many more?

Just a hundred. No stamina means no strength.

It's up to you.

I'll do it!

I didn't expect you to be so determined.

I need to build up my stamina.

Then I can support you properly and prevent falls.

Don't overpromise. There are two others who can support me anyway.

♫ Love is in your eyes ♫

♫ You will see flowers blooming ♫

♫ Every minute and every second ♫

♫ I will always be with you ♫

♫ We soar across the seas ♫

♫ No regrets will stand in our way ♫

♫ With all my heart and determination ♫

♫ I cheer for you ♫

Qin Ye Yun, when did you take dance classes?

Why are you that great at it?

I never took classes. I practiced hard on my own.

Are you this good just by practicing alone? That's amazing!

It's nothing special. I just pushed myself relentlessly.

Even without their resources, I won't be inferior to them.

I'll surpass them.

I want to make myself proud.

Don't worry!

As your support team member, I won't hold you back!

♫ You will see flowers blooming ♫

♫ Every minute and every second ♫

♫ I will always be with you ♫

♫ We soar across the seas ♫

♫ No regrets will stand in our way ♫

♫ With all my heart and determination ♫

♫ I cheer for you ♫

♫ I cheer for you ♫

♫ We can fly ♫

♫ There are unlimited expectations ♫

Cherry?

Cherry…

- What's wrong? - Jiang Qiao Xi…

What about Jiang Qiao Xi?

Jiang Qiao Xi met my former Olympiad teammates at the training camp

and they gave him my cellphone number.

So?

He called me and asked for your number.

Get to the point.

He is calling you right now!

You're not answering!

The number you dialed is busy. Please try again later.

One, two, three, four…

Jiang Qiao Xi?

Hello, Cherry.

Jiang Qiao Xi.

How have you been lately?

I…

Did something happen?

I'm fine.

I've been doing well lately.

The only bad thing is that you're not here,

but eventually you'll return to school,

so it's not that bad.

Don't worry about me.

As for school matters, as long as I'm not challenged,

nothing can defeat Lin Cherry.

So… How are things over there?

As long as you're well, I'm perfectly fine.

Jiang Qiao Xi, it's lights out soon.

Are you not allowed to talk on the phone for long?

No, but it's lights out soon.

It's okay. We can talk a little longer.

About what?

You… You should go to bed early.

It is important to get enough rest.

I hope we'll both be well when we meet again.

We will!

Good! Nice!

Lots of athletic grace!

Excellent sense of rhythm!

♫ What am I singing? ♫

Very good, Lin Qi Le. Significant improvement.

♫ It turns out you are my hit song ♫

♫ What are you saying? ♫

♫ After hearing it just once, I remember it ♫

♫ After hearing it twice, I'm hooked ♫

♫ What am I doing? ♫

♫ Everything feels like… ♫

- Xiao Man! - Xiao Man!

- Are you okay? - Should we go to the infirmary?

Let me catch my breath.

Are you okay?

It's okay, Coach. Lin Qi Le didn't mean it.

No! You stepped on me earlier.

Yes! Yes! I stepped on you.

I'm sorry, classmate Lin Qi Le.

What do you mean by "Yes! Yes!"?

All right, enough. Everyone, take a break.

You two, take her over there to rest.

Be careful.

Xiao Man, are you all right?

I'm fine. I hope this won't affect my performance later.

Lin Qi Le went too far.

Coach just praised her, and she immediately hurt you.

Is she trying to replace you as lead dancer?

No.

I don't even know if I should stay here anymore.

If anyone should leave, it's her. People like her shouldn't stay.

She has trained so hard. She definitely won't leave.

You're not quitting, are you?

- If you leave, I'll leave too. - So will I.

I'm with you, Xiao Man.

I heard what you said.

If you leave, others will come to replace you anyway.

If I can teach Lin Qi Le, I can also teach others.

Perfect timing. I might even volunteer to be the squad captain.

Cen Xiao Man, don't go back on your word.

I know you're not mad at me anymore.

I heard you standing up for me today.

Stop pretending!

You were so cool standing up for me today.

Let's order our uniforms at the uniform shop this Sunday.

After that, let's go shopping.

Didn't you say I've turned unfashionable since I transferred to Experimental High School?

You're the fashion expert. Give me some tips.

Let's get milk tea after we're done shopping.

Drinking milk tea will officially seal our reconciliation.

Deal?

I'll think about it.

Fine! Think it over.

Qin Ye Yun.

Qin Ye Yun, is this really necessary?

Lin Qi Le, where's Qin Ye Yun?

How could she leave you alone?

Wu Shuang, don't be nosy.

All right, get ready. Three, two, one!

Let's try this one.

Purple makes your skin look fair.

It complements your skin tone nicely.

Doesn't the red one look good too?

That red is way too flashy. It's so tacky!

Then let's try this outfit.

Sure. Let's go.

Xiao Man, you look stunning in this. It really brightens your complexion.

- You look good. - You look great!

- It's really nice. - It's gorgeous!

It shows off your slim waist.

All of our team members have good skin. Red enhances our complexion.

If we choose the red set, everyone will look great.

Xiao Man is right!

Xiao Man, how considerate of you.

Of course! We trust Xiao Man's taste.

Then let's choose the red set. What do you think?

Great! We'll follow Xiao Man's choice.

It really does look nice.

It looks good.

It makes you look more fair.

You have a great sense of style.

Lin Qi Le, what do you think?

You talk as if I actually have a choice.

Don't say that!

As the lead dancer, I'll respect everyone's preferences.

Well? What's your opinion?

Lin Qi Le, let the majority decide. We'll choose this set.

Remember to pick up Qin Ye Yun's uniform.

Xiao Man, this looks absolutely gorgeous.

It shows off your perfect posture.

Let me find it for you. Come on!

This is the small size.

- It's small. - That's right.

Can you help me adjust this?

Wait for me. There's a problem with my uniform.

Madam, look at this. It's stained.

I see. Miss, please wait a moment?

I'll get you a replacement from the storage room.

- Could you hurry up? - All right. All right.

Wait for me! There is someone else here, too.
