[Summit of Our Youth]

[Episode 2]

You call that studying?

Of course, I'm studying!

I'm studying history,

the tragic history of my dear sister.

Heard you scored even lower

than Yi Tianyu.

Dead last, huh?

Give it back!

Isn't he the guy

always showing off on the basketball court?

He's not bad.

But still a little off

compared to me.

Give it back!

No, no, no.

Give it to me!

Don't make me hit you!

Hurry up!

Hit me.

Beg me.

Beg, and I may give it back.

Not happening, just give me that!

What's with all the noise?

[Top Student Math Exercise Book]

Mom,

help me out here.

I asked her for a workbook,

she just wouldn't give it.

Mom,

Gu Mingze

always scribbles all over mine,

I have to buy new ones every semester.

You gotta back me up here!

Didn't I already

pay you back for those?

I gave you ten bucks.

Listen to your accent.

You only stayed in the South

a few more years than Jiao,

you still can't shake that accent.

You two fight

all the time.

You speak Cantonese,

she speaks Mandarin,

and it's driving me nuts!

Can you just stop?

Focus on your studies.

You!

Sit down.

Behave!

Why are you staring at me like that?

Aren't you supposed to think

your big brother

is all mighty now?

How do you know Yi Tianyu?

You wanna know?

I know way more

than you think.

But don't worry,

Shiyun asked me to keep your secret.

When I promise something,

I keep it.

You should feel lucky

to have a bestie like her.

Keep my secret?

She just wants someone else to spread

my embarrassing story for her.

Too bad,

she found this idiot.

Do you know

sometimes girls say the opposite

of what they mean?

What opposite?

What do you mean?

Whatever.

It's best if you never find out.

This time,

I really am breaking up with him.

Just talk to Yi Tianyu.

I'll call a car

and take you back.

I...

She always outperformed me

in exams back in the day.

If Yi Tianyu hadn't shown up,

she might've gone

to the Capital University, not me.

And my Mom always compared us,

saying

I couldn't even beat

Auntie Li's daughter.

Well, look at her now.

All teary,

that's probably as far

as she'll ever go in life.

Mom.

Morning.

Morning.

Where's Auntie Sitong?

Don't get me started.

I've had it

with Li Sitong.

Her two kids are preparing

for the college entrance exam,

so I told her she could come in a bit later.

I didn't think she'd take it seriously.

Maybe she's just got held up.

Mom,

I won't be having breakfast

at home today.

Gotta rush to school

for morning reading.

Hurry up then.

Grab some bread.

Sorry, sorry,

I'm late!

Ugh,

something urgent came up at home.

I'll make breakfast for you right now.

It's all Xuejiao's fault.

It's alright, Auntie.

Don't blame Xuejiao.

Actually,

she's really trying...

She's really been

working very hard.

She even ordered

a whole stack of prep books.

They blocked

my door this morning.

Oh, breakfast.

Even other people's kids

are striving so hard.

Don't just stand here,

forget about the bread.

Go to morning reading,

now!

Yes, Mom.

I bought these many books from you,

Lin Zhihua,

you should really thank me.

Xuejiao.

Coming.

What?

A late birthday present.

I loaded all the romance novels

you've wanted to read

into this electronic dictionary.

Read all you want,

your parents

will never find out.

Don't worry.

You're so thoughtful.

Thanks.

I'm heading back now.

That two-faced girl,

what is she plotting this time?

Zhou Shiyun?

You're Mr. Zhihua's most valued hire.

It's only right.

But, Ms. Zhou.

You do owe me a dinner.

Official headcount is tight these days,

I had to kick a contractor out

to make room for you.

What do you mean?

We planted a critical bug

in her code.

So? Juicy stuff, right?

Absolutely.

[C:\All Subjects\English]

What?

Why is it...?

Ask somebody for...

What a good kid.

In trouble again?

Try not to scream too loud

when getting whooped.

I need to study.

Stop!

Dad.

You said it to me?

Why did you change

my intention form?

Dad,

did you get too excited

and tick the wrong box?

Why would I touch your form?

Come look at this yourself.

The checkmarks are exactly the same as yours.

I mean,

why would you mess with his form?

How could you do this?

Dad! Dad!

Calm down.

Just fill out a new one.

Don't beat up the kid.

Fill out a new one?

Look at this, look.

[Bank of Communications]

The severance pay has come in.

I've spent my whole life at that factory!

How could you do something like that?

Dad! Dad!

Don't do it!

Don't hit her, just...

What you hit me for, Dad?

Run again, I dare you!

Don't hit me.

It's alright.

[News] As reported by our station,

the famous phone brand Yano

[News] officially declared bankruptcy today.

Yano's largest parts supplier,

our city's South District

Component Factory was hit

with huge order cancellations

with no legal recourse.

Coming up next,

financial news.

Wait, what?

This...

Dad! Dad!

Doctor,

how is he?

Nothing serious.

Once his blood pressure stabilizes, he can go home.

Thank goodness.

Thank you.

Gu Xuejiao.

You've been acting strange lately.

Why did you mess

with Dad's intention form?

And you actually did the right thing.

Or he could've lost everything,

the job and the severance.

Yeah.

I can predict the future.

How about that?

One flick

of my finger,

not only can we keep Dad's severance,

we could even get filthy rich.

I just give you an inch

and you take a mile,

don't you?

If you're that good,

you can see the future,

why don't you buy a lottery ticket?

Why worry about Dad's

severance pay?

You think I don't want to?

If you can predict the future,

can you tell me whether

Shiyun and I

can get into the same university?

Where are you going?

Lin.

What a coincidence.

Long time no see.

You again.

Lin.

Looks like you're

in a good mood today.

You think so?

I'm not gonna be your tutor.

I haven't said anything yet.

How do you know what I was gonna say?

We're so in sync.

You're just the right tutor for me.

Lin.

Stop sticking to me like glue.

Not until you say yes.

Lin, please.

Lin...

Lin.

What happened to Gao?

We didn't talk much,

but every time we met,

he encouraged me

and told me not to give up.

I didn't expect he's this sick...

You should go.

Lin.

I think

when Gao wakes up,

he would want

his life and his work

to stay the same.

Otherwise,

he'd be really upset.

I'll get going now.

So you did tell her

not to give up.

Follow me.

I could tutor you,

but find all of these first.

Then we can talk.

What are these?

Out-of-print study materials.

If they're out-of-print,

where am I supposed to find them?

What did Gao tell you?

Not to give up.

Lin.

Let's add each other on WeChat.

So I don't have to stalk you around.

Can't. No more spot.

No spot?

No ineffective socializing.

Not adding people I don't need.

Alright.

Excuse me.

[2009–2014 Jingshi No.7 High Sprint-Class Secret Papers]

Gao Rui is your best friend.

You're hurting more than anyone else.

But this wasn't your fault.

It was a failure of safety awareness

by the whole project team.

I should've

stopped Gao earlier.

None of us wanted

this to happen.

This is hard for everyone.

But you are

taking this even harder.

I believe Gao Rui

wouldn't want to see you

like this either.

I've got an idea for you.

Gao Rui has been working

multiple part-time jobs.

Why don't you take over his gigs

and keep things running?

That way, when he wakes up,

his life will still look the same.

Nothing's changed.

[9am Tutoring 1pm Bookstore 7pm Coding...]

To make more money,

you've got to invest.

You think that can make you money?

Tell me,

how many people

actually profit from investing?

You know,

most of them lose money.

It's not that easy.

Now that I actually agree with.

But, I'm not most people.

If it weren't for my foresight,

would we even have gotten

that severance payout?

Alright,

that's enough.

No more talk about this money.

I'm gonna look up

the interest on a 5-year fixed deposit.

Honey, don't you wanna hear

my investment plan?

Look at your mom.

If it weren't for my vision,

we don't even...

Listen, here's my plan.

Brother.

Gu Xuejiao, what do you want?

Why don't you call my name?

It's scary.

Brother,

it's your third try this year.

You must have a ton of

study materials, right?

Have you ever heard about

Sprint-Class Secret Papers,

Top Student's 300 Must-Do Questions,

or something like that?

What even are those?

I have plenty of review materials.

But I don't know exactly what I have.

Since when do you care

about studying so much?

Are you going a little overboard,

turning grief into motivation?

You got money?

I just remembered

I need to buy some new materials.

You think I'm buying that?

No.

That's mine!

Mine!

I knew Dad keeps

his cash here.

I'm off.

Gu Mingze!

Give it to me!

Bye bye.

Gu Ming...

Dad!

Yes. What?

What is it?

Your...

My what?

His what?

Ugh,

the pickles today are too spicy.

Over here.

Nice!

[2009–2014 Jingshi No.7 High Sprint-Class Secret Papers]

Where can I get these?

Since they're out of print,

even if someone has them,

they probably wouldn't share them

with me.

Nice!

Nice!

Why isn't she excited

like she used to?

She's so down.

Weird.

Please bless us.

Xuejiao, you wanna join us?

For what?

Wishing for our class

to win the basketball championship this year.

This formation is really effective.

To show my sincerity,

I even baked

these cupcakes myself.

You sit with Yi Tianyu.

You should cheer for him too.

Maybe next time, when you set up

a "top-scorer formation".

I'll do it for you then.

Dear heavens, I didn't make that wish.

Don't waste my wish, please.

Look, Xuejiao.

Our class is leading by a lot.

See? See?

The formation really worked!

If I've got this free time, I might as well

do two more questions instead.

Go team!

Did I piss her off

somehow?

Is she mad at me?

Go! Go!

Go! Go! Go! Go!

Class time.

I'm heading back.

Yi Tianyu, man!

What are you doing? Defense!

Tianyu!

Defense!

Okay, okay.

Yi Tianyu, go!

Pass the ball! Pass!

What are you thinking? Defense!

Defense, dude!

Watch out!

First, pretend to accidentally hit her.

Then, flash my most handsome smile and apologize.

She'll be so touched

and forgive me for everything.

Yi Tianyu,

you're such a genius.

Excuse me, excuse me.

Are you okay?

Your arm's probably too sore to aim straight.

Here, put this on.

Chen Xiao,

you're so thoughtful.

Looks like she's not mad anymore.

As expected,

a charming smile always works.

Thanks.

Come on, continue.

Connections are wealth.

Good looks are valuable too.

If someone

is willing to pay for a pretty face,

why not

make the most of it?

Yi Tianyu,

you're finally useful for once.

♪Block out nonsense, none of it matters♪

♪Block out mocking from idle bystanders♪

♪Block out useless prayers♪

Why share it with others?

True value comes from sharing.

You have to give to gain.

I remember you have

some rare review materials, right?

Though they revised it,

there's one called

"300 Must-Do Questions".

You're looking for this too?

Is it trending lately?

Gu Xuejiao is also asking about it.

She must want to compete with me.

She must want to get in my way.

We mustn't let her get it.

Sorry, sir.

First point.

Remember, this is

a point we can take notes on.

And that is

absolute freedom

of thought.

After school tomorrow,

can we go to that restaurant

again?

Sure.

But I think that place is

cutting back on portions.

It's not enough for me.

Hand it over.

I have no money.

Who asked you for money?

I want the "300 Must-Do Questions".

Don't.

You don't wanna cross her.

That's rare review material.

She's bullying our class rep.

I can't just watch her

being bullied.

Also, look,

we have three people here.

She's alone.

We can easily handle her.

Let's go.

Wait.

Gu Xuejiao,

I haven't gone to you yet,

how come you just brought yourself to me?

Well,

we won't disturb

your team bonding.

We're leaving.

Weren't you pretty tough just now?

Why so scared now?

It's not polite to point

at people like this,

you know.

What can you do about it?

I'll count to three.

One.

Two.

Three.

- Run! - Fight...

So pathetic.

So these are your friends?

Gu Xuejiao!

You alright?

I'm fine.

Where's Xuejiao?

No idea.

Gu Xuejiao, put it down!

Go back, back!

It's so dirty!

Yuck.

You're the ones

who cornered me here.

Back!

You two, go.

Try me!

I dare you!

My hands are shaky.

Got Parkinson's, you know.

Back!

Parkinson's...

Gu Xuejiao, you...

just you wait!

Xuejiao,

let her pick it up herself.

Or you'll make her bag smell bad too.

Thanks.

No need to thank me.

Liu,

can you

give me this

as my reward?

[Xiao]

Hello.

How much?

20.

Thanks.

I've got all the materials

you said.

A quick test,

gotta see where you're at now.

Let me see.

Wait, hold on.

[College Entrance Exam First Round Assessment Test]

[Mathematics]

That's it for today.

Finish the food and go home.

With this little?

I'm still gonna be hungry.

Then eat more at home.

I haven't finished the test yet.

You won't be able to.

You've hit your limit.

I was top 20

back in Grade 10.

But now you're near the bottom.

Face it.

I think there's

still hope for me.

Well,

I don't think so.

Knew you'd give up when it's hard.

We're closing.

Aren't you leaving?

I must solve this question.

Let me see.

Your approach was right this time,

but the calculations were a bit complicated.

Try to simplify it.

Told you.

With my brilliant mind,

I can definitely solve it.

It's late. Finish it when you get home.

Then send me a pic of it.

Oh, no.

What?

It's locked.

What do we do?

Figure something out.

Where is this little brat?

Get home later than I do?

Xuejiao.

Xuejiao, are you asleep?

She must've worked very hard.

Went to bed so early.

[Where the heck are you? Come home.] Where the heck are you? Come home.

[Gu Mingze]

[At Zhou Shiyun's place. Do not disturb.] At Zhou Shiyun's place.

Do not disturb.

I was being kind covering for you.

And you went to Shiyun's place

without even telling me?

It's handled.

But it'll take a while.

Burning the midnight oil surrounded by books.

When I get into the Capital University

and come back to give a talk,

I'll make sure

this glorious moment

gets widespread at No.7 High.

Save the script.

You won't need it.

Buzzkill.

All this trouble for one question,

was it worth it?

Totally.

You're not gonna quit soon, right?

You seem like

an impulsive person.

Impulsive people tend to

quit easily.

They jump into things without thinking.

And quit halfway when there's something new.

So you gave me

a tough test on purpose

to see

if I give up easily?

Stereotype.

[Gu Mingze] You don't help me,

you're on your own.

[Where the heck are you? Come home.]

[At Zhou Shiyun's place. Do not disturb.]

[You don't help me, you're on your own.]

Xuejiao.

Your blanket.

Xuejiao.

Don't put it over your head.

You'll run out of air.

Come on.

You...

This kid,

sleep like you're performing

a circus act.

The light's still on.

If only these two kids

could balance each other out.

One studies like crazy,

the other won't study at all.

You're toast.

[Gu Mingze You're toast. Mom's doing a room check.]

Mom's doing a room check.

Barely lasted a minute.

Okay, okay.

Out of sight, out of mind.

Might as well focus

and do the questions.

Mingze,

you're still up?

Mom.

What are you doing?

I read it on a forum

that light exercise before bed

helps you sleep better.

Want to give it a try?

Stop wasting your time

on these pointless things.

Keep it down.

Your sister's asleep.

Learn from her. Sleep and get up early.

Focus on your studies.

Will do.

Watch your head.

Hello,

the number you've dialed is powered off.

Powered off?

You little punk. Going rogue now?

If it weren't for your brilliant big brother,

you'd have got a good beating by now.

You and Xuejiao have fun.

I've got you covered.

You won't be caught.

I got it...!

Lin Zhihua.

Sour face.

How dare you?

You think you're something?

I...

No.

What am I doing?

There really are only five people.

It's okay.

I'll help you connect with the entire world.

Gao Rui.

Time of death,

September 5, 2014,

19 minutes and 32 seconds

past 10 o'clock at night.

You...

You had a nightmare?

No nightmare is scarier than you.

Drop your stereotypes.

Get ready to be scared to death by me!

I figured it out.

Look.

I solved it myself.

Let me show you.

This...

an=2−1/(an−1).

Vậy nên an+1=2−1/an.

Right?

Vậy nên bn+1−bn=1/(an+1−1)−1/(an−1)

=1/(2−1/an−1)=1/(an−1)

Right?

And then,

BN plus one minus BN.

What's that sound?

There's...

A monster.

Quick, hide.

I... I'll protect you, don't be scared.

Don't be scared!

I'll protect you!

What's going on?

Lady with pliers,

who are you?

I should be asking you.

Petal.

Who's this silly girl?

Petal?

I'm Petal.

Don't call me that

in front of strangers.

You know each other?

She's my sister.

Lin Zhiyue.

Sounds like a name his sister would have.

Zhiyue,

are you always this aggressive?

Takes one to know one.

Petal's your nickname?

Yeah.

Alright, pack up your things,

let's go.

It's weird to stare at people

like that.

High schooler?

Yeah.

I got it.

So you deleted your big sis

from WeChat

to make room for this girl,

huh?

[Contacts]

Not gonna talk?

Fine.

I'll just ask her.

Don't do that.

Girl,

why are you here so late?

How did you and Petal meet?

- I.. - I'm her tutor.

I help her with schoolwork.

So you agreed to tutor me?

Yes.
