OUTSIDE THE WINDOW, THE WATER PIPE BURST, THE CHAIR WENT ABROAD,

WHILE THE LEAVES HAVE WINGS. CHEER CHEN, "MY MIND WHEN I FELL FOR YOU"

NINGYUAN HIGH SCHOOL

Students, I am your class teacher, Huang Shanshan.

This is a new beginning for us all.

You should all cherish this opportunity to study with the good students.

Another announcement is our class leader will be Lin Jiaze.

GRADE 10, CLASS 1

This text is very important.

You should go home and memorize it.

Understand?

-Class dismissed. -All rise.

-Goodbye, Ms. Huang. -Goodbye, Ms. Huang.

Goodbye, students.

Don't you think our new class teacher's name is similar to yours?

No. It's not similar at all.

You are Su Cancan.

She's Huang Shanshan. Isn't that similar?

No, it's not.

Su Cancan and Huang Shanshan?

I think my name is much better than hers.

Su Cancan.

Come to my office.

You're Su Cancan, right?

Don't be nervous, sit.

Your junior high school teacher told me about you.

He said that you're very good at writing.

I read some of your essays.

You're very talented.

I just wanted to ask

if you want to be the Chinese class representative.

Can I?

Do you want to?

Here.

Organize these papers for me according to the student numbers.

Okay.

Ms. Huang, are you rearranging our seats?

This is everyone's first day.

The seats are all messed up.

I have to rearrange them.

Are you arranging it according to our numbers or our grades?

Well...

I'll take all factors into consideration.

What should we do? I don't want us to sit apart.

Don't be silly. Why are you thinking about me?

This is your best chance to sit next to Lin Jiaze.

Don't be silly.

Ms. Huang said she'll take grades and student numbers into consideration.

There's no hope for me.

When teachers say things like that,

it means they're going to do it randomly.

Completely random.

Truth or dare?

GRADE 10 TEACHER'S OFFICE

Where is it?

Did you find it?

I found it. Close the door.

Look at this.

You want to sit next to Lin Jiaze, right?

Are you mad? What if the teacher finds out?

She won't.

Watch the door. Hurry up.

LIN JIAZE

-Our class will be on duty next week. -Hurry up!

-Hurry up! -Thank you, Mr. Wang.

Su Cancan, Xu Meili.

What are you doing here?

I'm here to get our Chinese homework.

-Goodbye, Ms. Huang. -Goodbye, Ms. Huang.

Wait.

CHINESE LANGUAGE EXERCISE BOOK

You missed one.

Thank you, Ms. Huang.

-Go now. -Goodbye, Ms. Huang.

If I could really sit with Lin Jiaze,

that would be...

I don't want to change my seat.

Sit down, everyone.

Today, we'll be switching seats.

Get all your things ready. Hurry up.

After that, line up outside the door in groups.

When I call your name, come back and find your new seat.

-Understand? -Yes, Ms. Huang.

Wang Jing.

First row.

Luan Yu, next to Wang Jing.

Shen Qingyuan, over there in the last row.

Su Cancan.

Here.

Fourth row by the window.

Lan Tianye.

Next to Su Cancan.

What?

What's wrong, Lan Tianye?

Sit down, Su Cancan.

Jia Junpeng.

Why it is him again?

This demon is always coming between me and Lin Jiaze.

Tianye.

Who is it?

We're at school. Control your temper.

What's up?

I'm performing at the Palace of Art today.

Okay.

I'll go and support you after playing basketball.

Is basketball more important than me?

Stop being gross.

Go away.

See you.

Hey.

I know that you secretly changed the seating chart.

That was...

A misunderstanding.

I don't know why you want to sit with me.

I don't want to find out.

But,

from now on, we should set some rules.

I said it was a misunderstanding.

First, don't talk to me.

Second, don't eavesdrop.

Third...

What?

Put away your stupid smile.

Don't talk to me.

You talked to me first.

-You-- -You did it again.

It's all Lan Tianye's fault.

Now Lin Jiaze has the wrong idea.

How can I face him in the future?

You should look on the bright side.

How is there a bright side?

Lin Jiaze and Lan Tianye are best friends, right?

We can take advantage of that.

How will we do that?

Lin Jiaze thinks you like Lan Tianye, right?

So you can approach Lin Jiaze through Lan Tianye as an excuse.

That's a lame idea.

The situation is bad enough.

Then go explain it to him.

"I don't like Lan Tianye, don't get me wrong."

What if he doesn't believe me?

It's best if he believes you.

If he doesn't,

you still have a reason to approach him, stupid.

Lin Jiaze!

So pretty.

Lin Jiaze, I'm Su Cancan.

I want to clarify something.

I don't like Lan...

Lin Jiaze.

Lin Jiaze, let's play basketball.

Coming.

I want to clarify something.

How is it going, Cancan?

Are you trying to strangle me?

He didn't even see me.

That's normal.

You know what he's like.

He doesn't even look at the prettiest girl in school.

You should be happy.

You received the same treatment she did.

Thanks a lot.

Hey.

GRADE 10, CLASS 2

Tao Yating.

What kind of food did your mom make for you?

My dad made it.

Want to try some?

-Thanks. -Thanks.

It's so good.

Your dad is so good at cooking.

Have some more.

Thanks.

Tao Yating, you don't like meat?

I'll give you my vegetables.

My mom made me extra.

-Thank you. -It's fine. Just eat them.

Tao Yating.

Your dad just called me.

You're a student with music talent,

so I opened an empty classroom for you in the multimedia building.

Here's the key.

If you have time at noon, you can go practice in that classroom.

Very few students play the cello nowadays.

Keep up the good work.

As long as it doesn't affect your studies, we'll all support you.

Thank you.

May I come in?

Cancan, come in.

Ms. Huang, you wanted to see me?

We should change the blackboard newsletter.

We're still using what the previous class left behind.

You have good handwriting.

I'll give this job to you.

But I can't find anyone to help me.

You're a class representative. They should listen to you.

Su Cancan, can you do this for me?

Yes, I can.

I have cleaning duties today.

I can help you with it after I sweep the corridor.

It's fine.

I'll ask the others in the class.

It's impossible.

Nobody wants to do the blackboard newsletter in high school.

It's too childish.

I'll try.

Wait, everyone.

We're about to issue the first blackboard newsletter.

This is our first class activity.

If you're willing to help, please stay after school.

It's very simple.

If you're interested, just stay after school.

I bought Nicholas Tse's tape.

-Grateful for Your Love '99? -Yes.

I thought it was out of stock.

Did you buy it from a stand?

Last week, I rode by a small store.

They have a lot of stuff.

Which one? What is it called?

It's called Cancan Music.

Isn't it Canlan?

I went there last weekend.

They were sold out.

I guess I got lucky.

Thank you.

"Sadness ceases to exist after a long time."

You know this poem too?

What are you writing?

It's the blackboard newsletter I'm doing later.

You're doing it alone?

My friend will help me after she's done sweeping.

Tianye, let's help her.

I'd help anyone but her.

Why not?

Ask her yourself.

Lan Tianye, I don't need your help.

Why are you making girls mad again?

I came up with an idea this afternoon.

For the blackboard newsletter, we can do three sections.

The first section is "New Year, New Image."

It can be about some recent events.

I'll leave this part to my friend.

She's better at it.

The second section is about music.

A music section?

I want to introduce some campus folk songs.

Songs that are relatable to our life.

For this issue, I'll write about Lao Lang's, "My Deskmate."

I'm not talking about you.

It's just a famous song.

I don't care.

Lan Tianye!

NEW YEAR, NEW RESOLUTION

Lin Jiaze, can you draw?

Does this count?

I guess so.

Sorry, I can't draw very well.

It's okay.

Thank you so much for helping me.

Unlike some other classmates.

You can draw?

"Unlike some other classmates."

Can you draw a piano here?

Get down.

Awesome!

Who is this?

Look in a mirror and you'll see.

What do you mean?

That's not me!

I don't cry.

Let's go.

NEW YEAR, NEW RESOLUTION

FAMOUS QUOTES

ILLUSTRATION BY: LAN TIANYE WRITTEN BY: SU CANCAN

Lan Tianye likes Su Cancan.

What are you doing?

What do you think? It's pretty good, right?

-It is. -Yes.

Su Cancan, we didn't know that you're so brave.

Yes, Su Cancan.

I've underestimated you.

It's nothing. Piece of cake.

LAN TIANYE LIKES SU CANCAN

Who wrote this?

Aren't you in charge of the blackboard newsletter?

Cancan, you're so brave.

Su Cancan.

Why are you looking at me like that?

I knew you were planning something.

It really wasn't me.

I'm telling you again.

I'd never like someone like you.

What are you looking at?

It's over.

Another misunderstanding.

"I LIKE YOU"

Where's your bicycle?

That one.

What are you doing?

Meili, you're amazing.

"His heart is impetuous."

Do you understand this sentence?

You must memorize the last two sentences,

starting from, "Work hard without rest."

Can either of you get it for me?

They always test you on this in the exams as fill-in-the-blank questions.

Then, you have to explain it.

It pops up on the exam at least half of the time.

-Memorize it and review it often. -Thank you.

Does everyone understand the last paragraph?

Su Cancan, Lan Tianye.

Stand up and read it for us.

What are you still doing? Stand up now and take turns reading.

"Mounds turn into mountains."

"Puddles become... seas."

What's wrong?

Lin Jiaze, my bike is broken.

It was fine at noon, and now the tire is flat.

Let me see.

Su Cancan, someone took off your valve cap.

Who would do something like that?

What should I do?

I'm all alone. Meili already left.

If you don't mind,

I can give you a ride.

No.

I wasn't asking you.

It's none of your business.

You're being unreasonable.

What did you say?

Lin Jiaze.

Tianye.

Salut d'Amour should be sweet and bright.

Why does it sound so sad when you play it?

Sorry about interrupting.

What are you doing there?

I'm afraid you would say I wanted to hit on you.

Am I that scary?

No. You're the nicest.

I AM NOT FOND OF YOU.

Morning.

Thanks.

Lan Tianye usually looks so mean.

I didn't know he could be so considerate.

RESPECT YOUR TEACHERS, CHERISH THEIR TEACHINGS

Wang Yaxi, Lu Yu.

Stand up.

What are you doing down there?

Do you think I'm blind?

Lu Yu, read it out loud.

What's written on the note?

Share it with us.

Wang Yaxi, after the morning study session,

pack up your things.

Cancan, Tianye,

at the end of this session, change your seats with them.

You were sitting in a good spot, but you didn't study harder.

Maybe one day, a handsome prince who plays the violin

who is also very talented will show up right in front of me.

Did you stay up late again watching Nodame Cantabile?

How do you know?

You're talking about the male character.

If only there was someone like that in real life.

Imagine him riding a bicycle, waving to me under the sun.

Stop daydreaming. Keep studying hard.

Why can't guys in novels and comics exist in real life?

They can.

I heard that our music teacher just got back from abroad.

He's very handsome.

He looks like Kangta.

Really?

I don't believe it.

Why isn't he here yet?

Hello, students. My name is Zhou Lin.

I'm your music teacher.

That's Z-H-O-U, Zhou. L-I-N, Lin.

It means continuous rain.

If everything goes according to plan, I'll be teaching you for three years.

I hope we'll get along well

and you can better appreciate and understand music.

-Yes, Mr. Zhou! -Yes, Mr. Zhou!

This music teacher is really handsome.

-I told you. You wouldn't believe me. -I do now.

Before we begin class, I have another announcement.

This semester, our school is going to launch a radio station.

I hope you can all sign up, and participate in it.

-Okay! -Okay!

When the stars are still dancing in the night,

dawn has quietly arrived.

When the dark clouds are still floating, the sun has sprinkled golden light.

When we are still laughing and playing,

age has come to stay.

Meili.

It's Lin Jiaze's voice!

You didn't know?

The principal recommended him to Mr. Zhou.

He's going to be the star of the radio station.

Really?

Then I must join the radio station.

For your information,

Tao Yating is also there.

Then I definitely have to join.

Meili, will you join me?

Me? Why?

Have you forgotten about our handsome music teacher?

You're not joining?

Joining the radio station

will be a good opportunity to get closer to Lin Jiaze.

-May we come in? -May we come in?

Come in.

Can I help you two?

Sir, we would like to join the radio station.

The radio station is indeed recruiting people.

Do you have any special strengths?

Mr. Zhou, she's really good at memorizing lyrics.

Yes, I can show you.

"Don't mention the past, our lives are already--"

Read this for me.

"Today, we're going to talk..."

"Talk about youth and dreams...

On our show today..."

Mr. Zhou, she's a little nervous right now.

I'll go first.

Okay.

"Youth

lets us feel the freedom of the wind and clouds.

Give us the flame of life.

Dreams.

Dreams are the lighthouses guiding our way in life."

How was that?

Both of you did really well.

But

you might not be suitable for our radio station.

Why not?

Nobody likes what you're doing right now.

The radio station serves the students.

It needs some specialty.

Tell me your ideas.

We can have a music program

that talks about the latest news, pop singers, and pop songs.

And also, rumors in showbiz.

Mr. Zhou, I guarantee that everyone will want to listen to it.

Mr. Zhou, what do you think?

Come back tomorrow.

Really? What about her?

GRADE 10, CLASS 1

Cheer up.

You were just too nervous.

Also, the radio station isn't just for people who listen to the radio.

Next time, you should write a script and show it to him.

He'll definitely let you join.

Lin Jiaze.

What are you doing?

Lin Jiaze, could you please do me a favor?

Cancan really wants to join the radio station.

She's really good at writing. She could help write scripts.

Yes, Lin Jiaze.

I really like music.

I want to join the radio station.

I can write as many scripts as you want.

Oh, right.

You can read this.

Got it.

Thank you, Lin Jiaze.

Does that mean no?

Thank you, Ms. Huang.

-You can go now. -Goodbye, Ms. Huang.
