=Time and Him are Just Right=

=Episode 4=

Are you looking for Lin Xi?

She left for school.

She left?

Yes.

She said that she had to go to school early these few days.

She couldn't have breakfast with us too.

Look. I even bought three servings.

It's all right. I can take two servings.

Come here.

You have quite a good appetite.

I didn't know you liked steamed buns so much.

Mom.

This is the taste of freedom.

What's going on between you and Ji Junxing?

I was sitting in the front row,

but I could feel

the awkwardness in the air.

That's right.

I need to stop talking to him for a few days

and give him a taste of loss.

Don't you want to be his friend anymore?

I want.

Then, why are you not talking to him?

It seems like you're losing more than he is.

Our relationship has hit rock bottom.

I have nothing to lose.

If the results are what matter the most,

all I want is to be his friend.

I can't be acting servilely the whole time.

So I've decided to lift my chin up and stick my chest out

as I march on this path of friendship.

Nice.

I like how domineering you are.

But

what's your plan?

Have you ever heard

of the story about a fox that's chasing a rabbit?

I haven't.

If the fox keeps on chasing, and the rabbit keeps on running,

then it'll never catch the rabbit.

So after a few days of chasing,

the fox will disappear.

When the rabbit lets its guard down,

the fox will catch it by surprise and take it down.

Wait a minute.

Who's the rabbit?

Ji Junxing.

Are you saying that he's the rabbit

and you're the fox that's trying to catch him?

Do you really think you're capable of catching him?

Just wait and see.

(Lin Xi's bathroom time)

Go! Pass the ball!

Pass it!

Pass!

Defend!

Come back and defend the goal!

Good morning, Xing.

Good morning.

Morning.

Isn't it a bit too early

for carbonated drinks?

Don't worry. Mianmian won't mind.

Thank you.

You are really something.

It turned out

Ji Junxing really is a little rabbit.

I've got to go.

(Water Dispenser)

You forgot your coke.

No.

You forgot your coke.

Do you think you're in a commercial?

You looked as if you wanted to drink it rather badly.

What's the matter?

I'm not trying to give you a lecture,

but it's a little too much to pretend to be injured.

Lin Xi did everything she could

in the hope of being your friend.

Aren't you moved by her sincerity?

You are too cold-hearted.

If she finds it difficult,

the best thing she can do is to give up now.

Everything is great now, isn't it?

We will just stay away from each other's business.

She's doing well,

and I'm doing well too.

In fact,

I don't think she's doing well.

I don't think you're doing well too.

It's actually very easy

to mollify a girl after you upset her.

I'm very experienced in this.

I can share some of my experiences with you.

Thank you,

but it's fine.

I'm just giving you a small tip as a friend.

Arrogance might feel good now,

but it'll eventually lead you to a dead end.

Lin Xi is going to give up on you soon.

I'm only doing all of this

to keep her away from me.

I can finally be at peace now

and I feel great about it.

I'm very happy too.

Are you sure?

Of course.

Smile, then.

Looking at you from the back,

I can't help but want to sing you a song.

♪You are not truly happy♪

♪Your smile is only a facade you put on♪

In order to promote the construction of spiritual civilization in our school,

diversify our school's culture,

build a harmonized and civilized environment,

and train our students to be stronger,

so that they can keep striving to achieve better results,

we are going to organize

the 15th Chunhui Basketball Tournament.

Please join us.

Our school is holding a basketball tournament.

When is it?

Did our class participate in the tournament last year?

You're interested in the basketball tournament?

Of course. It's the basketball tournament.

I can be a manager,

or a cheerleader, or even handle the logistics.

Why don't you find out more about it first before...

There's no need for that.

You can do whatever you want.

You can also have the honor of doing a very difficult task too

and handle the registration too.

I will definitely complete the task assigned by the organization.

I'll never let the organization down.

Both the organization and I have faith in you.

All the best.

Xie Ang, why...

I don't want to see you disappointed.

(Progressive Erudite Humble)

It's not making sense.

Why isn't anyone here

to register for the basketball game?

You fell into Xie Ang's trap.

This is a difficult task.

What's going on?

You haven't heard about this.

There is a hierarchy

for the Chunhui Basketball Tournament.

The Art Class despises the Science Class.

The Science Class looks down on the Literature Class.

And we're stuck in the middle.

I'm not done yet.

The Art Class despises Class One.

No way.

I need to figure something out.

Have you considered joining the basketball tournament?

Sign up now to get a sachet of instant coffee for free.

Refer a friend and you'll get a chocolate bar for free.

If two persons sign up together, you'll get both freebies.

The more contestants we get, the more gifts we'll be giving out.

Here's a free gift for our first meeting.

Hello.

Please help us promote the game. Thank you.

Hello.

Please promote the basketball tournament to your friends.

How trivial.

Xie Ang.

Think about it.

Lin Xi.

These deals are very attractive.

I'm sold.

So will you be joining us?

No.

I'll talk to you again when you decide to join us.

But I can refer a friend.

Who's it?

Your deskmate.

That guy?

Can he play basketball?

I'll think about it

if you are sincere enough.

I don't think you're a good candidate.

Why not?

You just don't look like one.

You look nothing

like someone who plays basketball.

Hello.

Please help us share this with your friends. Thank you.

Hello. Please share it with your friends.

We're counting on you.

Come on, Qin Kai!

On your marks!

Come on, Qin Kai!

Ready!

Come on, Qin Kai!

Qin Kai, you did great!

Have some water. You've worked hard.

Thank you.

Have some water.

What? Who's this?

What brings you here?

It's my first time seeing you hurdling.

You were amazing.

I was just doing it casually.

I'll show you what I can do for a real competition one day.

Are you looking for me?

I happened to pass by,

so I thought I would just deliver some drinks to you.

I don't receive drinks from every Tom, Dick, and Harry.

Precisely.

I don't deliver drinks to every Tom, Dick, and Harry too.

Drink it.

Drinking it

means you've agreed to do me a favor.

What?

What have I agreed to?

You'll be an aid

to our class's basketball team.

Hello.

Hi.

Can I have a cup of milk tea?

Sure.

Normal sugar level, add on pearl,

Nata de coco, and grass jelly.

I want all the add-ons.

Wait a minute.

That's it.

I spent the whole day running around

but I still fail to form a basketball team.

Just join us.

We'll be a great team if you can join us.

I'll be dead if I join you.

My classmates will send me to an early grave

if they find out that I'm joining your team.

Moreover, if I join your team,

what about my classmates?

What about my friends?

I didn't expect

a free man like you

to care about collective honor.

This is what we call sportsmanship.

We've failed before we even managed to do anything.

It seems impossible

for our basketball team to turn things around.

I think

even if you manage to form a team,

your class will be eliminated at the preliminary round.

It's the participation that matters.

It's about sportsmanship.

Other girls don't even know

how many members are there in a basketball team.

But why are you so interested in basketball?

It's mainly

because of my brother.

(My brother was a fan of Kobe.)

I used to play basketball with him when we were little.

We watched basketball games together too.

As time went by,

I started to get interested in basketball games too.

That's great.

Let's play together.

What about you?

Why do you like sports?

I like the idea

that you won't know who the winner is

unless you fight until the final second.

That's why we are friends.

Exactly.

Wait.

How many basketball players do you have in your class?

Everyone in our class can play basketball.

Let's make a deal.

You'll come and watch me play next time.

I was

Chunhui's most valuable player last year.

Sure. I want to see

how good your three-pointer is.

Just swish it.

Everyone can do it.

All right. You can go now.

She has quite a number of friends.

Where did everyone go?

Lin Xi.

You're amazing.

There's finally a dream basketball team from our class.

Are you kidding me?

It's true.

They went out early in the morning for the basketball practice.

Come with me if you don't believe me.

Let's go.

It's true.

Ji Junxing is here too.

He's the captain.

Can he play basketball?

Why not?

If there's only one guy in our class who can play basketball,

it has to be him.

Others might not know about this.

But we came

from the same middle school.

They called him Little Kobe.

It's either he doesn't play, or he'll win the game.

You were in middle school. Things might be different now.

He's still doing pretty well now too.

Do you find anything unusual

when he's playing basketball?

I do.

He's unusually steady.

With his help, we'll surely win the tournament.

Xie Ang.

Has he recovered?

What are you talking about?

Nothing.

Who are the others?

The boy with the brightest smile

is Gao Yunlang.

He's nicknamed Cheerful Gao and is a very good athlete.

(Gao Yunlang, Cheerful, Takes Chen Mo as his best friend.)

The prettiest boy among the bunch

is called Chen Mo.

(Chen Mo. Studious, quiet, and gentle) As his name suggests,

(Gao Yunlang's best childhood friend) he's quiet, gentle, and a laconic person.

However, he is really good at math.

He won the first place in last year's Olympiad.

That's Kai.

He's very good at chemistry.

And Xie Ang...

I'll be very grateful as long as he doesn't jeopardize the whole team.

Anyway, all our class's top students

are here.

It sounds more like a mathematics competition

than a basketball tournament.

You can leave now.

Why are you playing basketball early in the morning?

Don't you need to study?

Whether we need to study or not,

it has nothing to do with you.

Don't you know that the basketball court

belongs to the Art Class in the morning?

Did the school set the rule

or did you come up with it yourselves?

It doesn't matter who set the rule.

We can have a match if you're not happy with it.

The winner gets to stay.

What do you say, Kai?

Sure.

The skills will speak for themselves on the court.

We'll play one-on-one and the first to score five points will win.

Who's going to do it?

You?

Come at me.

I'll do it.

Sure.

I'll play with you, then.

Nice shot.

What do we do now?

Miss.

He scored five points in a row. They're now Class 12's rivals.

He's just asking for trouble.

It's not too late to admit defeat now.

Give me the ball.

Nice shot.

Did you see it?

We scored five clean shots.

You barely scored the last shot.

You only scored four and a half shots.

Whatever. You can have the court.

Let's go.

Lin Xi.

Drop by and watch me play next time.

It's fine.

Let me inform you

that I'm now the manager

of Class One, Grade Two's basketball team.

I also handle their logistics and am their cheerleader.

From now on, we're rivals.

Sure.

Good luck.

I hope you'll do better than last year.

I hope you can get into the quarterfinals.

We might even make it to the final.

Do your best

and win second place too.

Kai.

What are you looking at?

Our opponent.

Xing, well done.

You scored five consecutive shots.

You're quite a good basketball player.

But are you feeling all right?

Why? Do you think I'm weak?

That's not what I meant,

but

let me know if you need help.

Remember.

(Realistic Progressive Erudite Humble)

With Ji Junxing on our team,

I'm very hopeful that our class will win the tournament.

Come on. We're counting on you

to break Class One's curse.

Come on.

Wait a minute.

Now that we have formed a basketball team,

it's time to sign our cheerleaders up.

Wait a minute.

I need to jot you down one by one.

Go back to your seat.

What are you doing?

How long has the bell been ringing?

This is outrageous.

People are racing against time

to work on worksheets and memorize vocabulary,

only hoping to score a better result in the college entrance exam.

But look at you.

Basketball?

You think you'll do very well in the exam, right?

In the previous monthly test,

only six out of the top 20 are from our class.

Are you still proud of being a Science Class student?

Aren't you ashamed of yourself?

Aren't six a lot?

Keep laughing.

You'll start crying during the college entrance exam.

We're not joining

the basketball tournament this time.

Why not, Miss?

Why not?

Because you're not students from the Art Class.

Your priority is to secure a place in the college.

Let's start our class now!

Kai.

That was a very handsome shot.

It's just something I always do.

You're all here.

What are you doing?

Can't you see the water is mine?

The water here is for everyone.

Let's go, Xie Ang.

Wait.

You can have it.

Since you can't play basketball,

you can play with the water.

What did you say?

Don't talk rubbish.

I'm not as good a talker as you.

You're the best academically,

but you're the worst when it comes to basketball.

I dare you to repeat it.

You're the worst.

Initially, I wasn't hopeful.

Then, I saw hope.

And now, the hope was taken away from me again.

It was really a dream team.

It was just like a dream.

I got it now.

Basketball isn't Class One's curse.

It's Miss Sun.

Luckily, Ji Junxing no longer has to participate in the tournament.

Why do you dislike Ji Junxing?

Oh, no.

Our classmates have gotten into a fight with the Art Class.

What's going on?

Let's go. Hurry up!

What's the matter?

Miss.

Look.

What happened? Why is there blood?

It looks pretty bad.

Where are they?

It must be the doing of your students.

Where are you going?

I'm going to look for Mr. Xie.

Listen. Calm down first.

Say something.

Dad.

I'm not your dad.

Come here.

Does it hurt?

You deserve it.

You should've put your effort into something else rather than fighting.

Mr. Xie.

We weren't fighting.

You weren't fighting?

Then, what happened

to the wound on his face and his shirt?

Dad, this...

You're the best academically,

but you're the worst when it comes to basketball.

I dare you to repeat it.

You're the worst.

My nose...

Blood.

My nose is bleeding.

Mr. Xie.

They only shared a hug.

Fine.

I'll not press on

this matter.

But

you'll need to share a hug now.

Then, I'll let this matter rest.

Another hug?

What's wrong?

Don't you want to settle this here?

Do you want to get punished?

Go back now.

Get back to class now.

This...

Mr... Mr. Xie.

This...

It's fine.

You're here right on time.

Bring them back to their classes.

They weren't fighting. It was just an accident.

All right, Mr. Xie.

Get back to your classes now.

Go back now!

Miss Sun.

There's something else

I want to tell you.

What is it?

This incident

might appear like an accident,

but actually, it's not.

You disqualified Class One from the basketball tournament,

and we were really upset.

Miss.

It's not fair.

We want to take part in the tournament.

Enough.

I won't allow that.

Miss.

You said

that the basketball tournament will affect our learning.

But have you ever thought it through?

If you don't allow us to take part in the tournament,

our low morale

will affect our studies even worse.

Is the basketball game so important?

Will it help your college entrance exam?

Can it be one of your specialties?

Will it help you

get a place in a reputable university?

Yes, Miss.

We need to secure a place in the university.

But college is not the final stage of our life.

If we miss the good experience in life

because of this,

life would be meaningless.

Even if I allow you to take part in the tournament,

you would be eliminated in the preliminary rounds.

What's sportsmanship about?

Higher, faster, and stronger.

Can you beat

those kids from the Art Class?

Michael Jordan once said,

"I can accept failure,

but I can't accept not trying."

Even if we lose the competition,

it's still better than giving up before trying.

Miss Sun.

Just give us a chance.

We shouldn't be wasting our time

being indecisive, regretful, and anxious.

We should make good use of the time and play a good match.

That's right, Miss.

Sakuragi Hanamichi said

that if you give up,

the game is already over.

Miss Sun, please let us do it.

We promise that we'll never neglect our studies.

Let them do it.

Don't make it look like we're abusing them.

If you wish to participate in the tournament,

you must do your best.

Don't let the other students think

that studying is the only thing

students of Class One know.

That's great!

I'll see you at the basketball court.

Don't be happy just yet.

Our goal

is to beat you.

All right.

Stop standing here.

Meet me at my office.

Go back to class.

We can play basketball now.

Wait a minute, Xie Ang.

That quote was not from Sakuragi Hanamichi.

It was from Anzai-sensei.

Miss Sun watched this series too?

You watched it too.

We can play basketball now.

Ji Junxing.

You were so cool just now.

I agree.

Wasn't I cool?

Of course, you were.

It was the first time I thought you looked handsome.

Good boy.

Lin Xi.

What are you looking at?

Is there someone behind me?

This time,

I'm really impressed by what you did.

You confronted Miss Sun alone

to secure Class One's honor.

I'm not that selfless.

All I want is to play in the basketball tournament.

Do you want to play the game so badly?

What if you get hurt?

What... What if you hurt your arms, legs, or...

Or if anything happens to your heart or your other organs?

Are you worried about me?

I'm worried about our class's performance in the basketball tournament.

I want to win.

It's rare to see us sharing the same goal.

You can be my friend

if I win.

Don't you want to keep your social circle exclusive?

We need some low-quality friends in life too.

Your words, not mine. Don't break your promise later.

Say it again. I want to keep a record of it.

Golden words are not meant to be repeated.

You should go now. I need to practice.

I wasn't expecting this.

The fox really outsmarted the rabbit.

What are you talking about?

Nothing.

I mean, good job, my friend.

Give me a high five, my friend.

Didn't you say that we're friends?

Come on!

Come on!

Class One, Grade Two has advanced into the next round!

Class 12, Grade Two has advanced into the next round.

(Final. Class 12, Grade Two versus Class One, Grade Two)

(Final. Class 12, Grade Two versus Class One, Grade Two) Come on!

Hey.

Luck is on your side, huh?

You actually managed to get into the final.

But now that you're playing against us,

you'll soon run out of luck.

Don't get ahead of yourself.

You might embarrass yourself soon.

Class One. Class One. We are number one.

Class One is the best. Defy us and you shall be dead.

See?

This is what a winner looks like.

We have a very strong cheerleading team too.

We're leading. We're going to win this.

Isn't it nice?

It is nice indeed.

But we'll find out who's the winner on the court.

We are number one.

Class One is the best.

Let's go.

Defy us and you shall be dead.

(15th Chunhui Basketball Tournament)

Class One is the best. Defy us and you shall be dead.

(Final. Class 12, Grade Two, 21, versus Class One, Grade Two, 17.)

Come on!

(Final. Class 12, Grade Two, 42, versus Class One, Grade Two, 41.)

Okay.

(Final. Class 12, Grade Two 75, versus Class One, Grade Two, 72.)

Are you all right?

What's going on?

Are you all right?

I sprained my ankle.

I'm fine.

No. You won't be able to keep playing.

Go to the infirmary now.

Careful.

It looks pretty serious.

Ziyang.

Bring him to the infirmary.

Now.

What do we do now?

There are only five people in our class who can play.

We don't even have a substitute.

Less than a minute left.

Why don't you surrender now?

(Final. Class 12, Grade Two, versus Class One, Grade Two.)

(Final. Class 12, 84, versus Class One, 81.) You won't win anyway.

That's right.

Stop wasting our time.

Just resign to your fate.

Moreover,

you have already done

a pretty good job.

You don't have any substitute, right?

Who told you that we don't have a substitute?

Mianmian?

There are no other substitutes, right?

I'll do it.

You?

You're a girl. Can you really do it?

Can't girls play?

It's the Chunhui Basketball Tournament.

There are no rules saying that it's for boys only.

Are you sure you can play basketball?

Don't get ahead of yourself.

Sir.

Can I join the tournament?

There are no rules in the Chunhui Basketball Tournament

saying that girls aren't allowed to participate in the tournament.

You're right.

56 seconds left. The game will resume.

Class One will have possession.

Come on!

Let me show you what Black Mamba is made of.

Use a feint

to make the defender lose his center of gravity.

When the defender loses his center of gravity,

he will lose his advantage of height too.
