[Our Secret]

[Episode 1: Never Give You What You Want]

Here. Take a look at our News Club.

Thank you.

Hey, there!

This is the boys' dormitory. Girls are not allowed.

I know, Auntie. I'm a freshman. I'm looking for someone.

- It's still a "no". It's against rules. - I just need two minutes!

- How could you do that? - Just two minutes!

No.

I'll call security if you won't leave.

Zhou Siyue!

Zhou Siyue, I'm here for you!

Zhou Siyue! Come out! I'm going in if you don't come out!

Zhou Siyue!

Zhou Siyue! I'm here for you!

Zhou Siyue!

Ding Xian!

Zhou Siyue, it's so nice to see you.

You never picked up my call or returned my message.

I thought you wouldn't come out to see me.

I just have something to say.

Tell me.

I like you.

Have you ever felt the same?

Ding Xian,

I have no plans for romantic relationships now.

It's getting late. You should go back.

Focus on your studying and don't come looking for me again.

We said that we would get into Huaqing together.

Now I have done it.

I just want to know if you ever had feelings for me.

Is the answer...

really important?

Ding Xian,

we all have our own lives.

So what?

Zhou Siyue!

Do you know my secret?

It's getting late. I'm going to leave now.

Activate.

[Loading...]

[Summer, 2009]

It was August 2009.

Summer in the south is scorching hot.

We left the small town of Keshan and moved to Shenhai.

Everything we passed by was so strange.

It was a whole new beginning.

I hoped the city of Shenhai can treat me nicely.

I hoped I could maintain my performance at school this semester and make some new friends.

And I hoped everything could go well.

- Sir, take it easy. - Be careful with the cabinet.

Come on, over here.

Xian, here are your books. Put them away.

Siyue! Siyue!

Your keys!

Can you be lazier?

- Brother, what's going on? - I twisted my ankle.

What are you staring at?

Go move the things. Stop wasting time.

Ding Juncong.

- This place is huge. - Don't waste any time.

We have to go out later.

Refrigerator... Yes, put it against the wall.

Put the other things in the second bedroom.

Juncong. Xian. You two are sharing one bedroom.

- No way! - No way!

I'm old enough now. I'm not sharing a room with him.

How about I go stay at school?

Why would you do that?

With such a good apartment, you want to waste money on that?

Do you think we have cash just lying around?

All right.

We have another small room.

I could give up my study room and make it their bedroom.

How's that, Wanxian?

- Fine. You two pick your rooms. - Great!

- Take it easy. - I'm taking this room.

I want this room, too.

Ding Juncong, why did you push me?

Mom! Mom! Mom!

What are you doing?

What are you doing? You...

Apologize!

I'm not going to!

That's fine, but you have to let me have this room.

No way!

What does a little kid like you need such a big room for?

I don't care. I want that room! That is the room I want!

Xian, you are the elder one, can you let your brother choose first?

- Mom! - Wanxian, where is my medicine kit?

I don't know, look for it yourself.

You...

Why is the medicine kit missing?

- Xianxian, are you all right? - Yes.

Then hurry up.

The Zhous are waiting for us.

I don't want to go.

Stop nagging and hurry up.

Coming!

- Zhou! - Wencheng!

You are finally here.

Come on, get in.

Say hello to Uncle Zhou.

- No need to change into slippers. - Hello, Uncle.

- It's okay. - We should change. Look at the floor.

This is...

Sorry to bother you about the school.

It's just a little thank-you gift.

You are being a stranger right now.

I'll leave it here.

It's okay, come in. This is...

Jinyun.

Wencheng is here.

- Hello! - That's a lot of work you've done.

- Nice to see you. - Nice to see you.

Ding. Wanxian. Welcome.

This is Auntie Li who I brought up all the time.

Sorry, Auntie Li.

The truth is my mom never mentioned you.

I always wanted to bring Xian here to see you.

Am I right?

One of the signatures of teenagers.

Lying without feeling guilty at all.

Auntie Li, hello.

I heard a lot about you from my mom.

- You are a nice kid. - Wencheng, sit.

Yes. Don't just stand here. Let's sit and eat.

Okay. Change your shoes.

Your dad and Uncle Zhou have been friends since childhood.

Uncle Zhou got this job in Shenhai for your dad.

You two, behave here.

Before you guys arrived, I was telling Yun

- that we haven't met for some time. - Sit.

We are drinking tonight.

Yeah, we have to drink.

- Hurry up. - You have no objection, do you?

- Not at all. - Why don't you also have some?

Sure. Thank you.

They are Siyue's schoolmates.

They are here to play games together.

- Hello, Uncle and Auntie. - Hello.

Where is Siyue?

He's asleep.

Ask him to come out.

Master Zhou, wake up.

Your mom is asking you to join us at the dining table.

Coming.

Going to school nowadays is rough.

What a crowd!

Siyue! Come and say "hi" to Uncle Ding and Auntie Ye.

Uncle Ding. Auntie Ye.

You are all grown up.

- I'm sorry about that. - There's no need to be shy. Come.

We haven't met for years.

Let's cheer for this reunion.

Right. Welcome.

- Thank you. - Sorry for the trouble.

It's not easy to prepare for this.

Have some food.

Xianxian, you should remember.

This is Siyue. You met when you were younger.

Siyue looks so handsome now.

He's all grown up.

I held you in my arms when you were little.

How time flies.

You don't say!

He's already in high school now.

Right, Xianxian.

I heard that you performed well on the high school entrance exam.

I got 695.

That's impressive.

That's not my best.

Our Xianxian would study until 2:00 a.m. before exams.

She can't be persuaded.

She just loves school so much.

Siyue, what was your score?

Me?

680.

Just past the line.

Siyue is talented.

He passed the line easily.

We were playing games before the exam.

You are also Siyue's classmate, right?

What was your score?

Auntie,

the score only needs to meet the line.

That's what I've been saying to Xianxian.

The score only needs to meet the line.

But Xianxian just loves to study. She's a tough person.

Enough. Stop talking and eat your food.

Xian is clearly a nice kid.

She will achieve something in the future.

- You did a good job bringing her up, Ding. - That's not true. You are flattering me.

- I should learn from you. - Learn from me?

We should learn from each other.

Yeah. Xian never makes me worry when it comes to studying.

Siyue!

You should discuss school-related questions together.

Xianxian knows everything.

Sure, Auntie.

- I will. - This is great.

You two should communicate more.

Your grandfathers arranged your marriage when you were little.

Why bring that up?

That's where we were at.

That's true.

But it's too early for them to think about that.

They are just high schoolers.

Yes. That's right.

Studying should be your focus now.

Come on.

How do we cancel the marriage?

Nonsense. Auntie Ye was just kidding. Did you take it seriously?

That's right.

I'm kidding with Auntie, too.

- Come on. - He's a funny kid.

Like I would like you.

Uncle Ding. Auntie Ye. Please make yourselves at home.

I'm finished.

That's all you need?

I had too much in the morning. Don't mind me.

I... I'm finished, too.

Me, too.

Come on, ignore them.

- Here. - Sorry about that.

Boys at their age are a little rebellious.

- That's right. - Our kids are the same.

Yeah. That's how all of them are.

Sister, I need to use the bathroom.

Okay. I'll take you.

I got 695.

Xianxian is such a sensitive kid.

I never have to worry about her.

Xianxian knows everything.

Her mom was trying to be Siyue's in-law.

Who would arrange marriage nowadays?

Yeah, that must be a joke.

Did you guys see the bump on her head?

Doesn't it look like a horn?

She was trying to cover it like we wouldn't notice.

She's like Shrek.

The green monster.

And what was his wife's name?

Fiona!

- Fiona! - Yeah.

Princess Fiona.

Princess Fiona.

Princess Fiona.

How do you feel?

What does it feel like to have a fiancée?

Can you stop talking?

Try to kick me again!

Sister, they run out of toilet paper.

Did... Did she hear all of that?

Now what?

Go open the door.

You should deal with your own mess. Go!

Little... Little Monster...

Beauty, what is it?

The toilet paper has run out.

Do you have any here?

Yes.

We need toilet paper!

We should stop drinking.

No. You need to stop, Zhou!

Hey.

Did you hear what we were talking about?

You can drink more now.

Would it make you happy if I cancel our marriage?

Yeah.

Then I'm not doing that.

The second signature of teenagers.

They never give you what you want.

Here comes the paper.

Silly boy!

Think about the way you acted.

You just don't know how to bring your best.

That was such a good chance.

You didn't even talk to Zhou Siyue longer.

I don't know what to say.

There's nothing to say.

You and your dad are so alike. You have no social skills.

You will have a hard time when you leave school.

Look at Zhou Siyue.

He's clearly a popular kid.

You have ruined my social life.

How could you say that?

- What are you looking for? - Where is my hat?

It's not here. Stop making a mess.

I can't put things in place if you make a mess here.

Go away!

Do you know any drugstores nearby?

How could I know that?

I'll find your medicine when I'm done here.

Xian, why don't I go with you?

It's okay, Dad. I can go by myself.

I'm going to the drugstore now.

Yes!

Junk!

Boring.

What are you doing this afternoon?

Basketball?

Dude, can't you see that my ankle is severely injured?

Be a little considerate, will you?

It hurts!

You still know what pain feels like.

You were pretty happy when you were talking about someone else.

I'm not kidding. It really hurts.

Besides, why does the pain keep increasing?

How about this?

You two take me to get it checked.

I know a place.

What place?

Don't make me feel the pain with you.

Young fellow, you call this pain?

Sir, can you be gentle a little?

I'm almost done.

I can't stand it anymore.

[Wanwei Tang Drugstore]

Young lady, you are a student at Shenhai High School, right?

The school is starting soon.

I know what you are looking for.

This.

It's good for your memory.

And these.

Bring them back

- and ask your parents to make soup. - That's not what I'm looking for.

So, what are you...

I... This...

My goodness!

How... How did you get that?

I bumped into a ghost.

I don't care what you bumped into. I recommend this to you.

I promise that after using it, you will feel brand new tomorrow.

Like you never bumped into anything.

Here.

Have a try.

Don't give up.

- I'll go check out. - Hold on.

Siyue, I'm coming with you.

Owner, check, please.

Just a second.

What a small world!

Small world, my ass.

Why does your bump keep getting bigger?

I don't have time for this.

Owner, I don't want it anymore.

Young lady, you haven't paid yet.

I didn't use it.

It has been opened. How am I supposed to sell it now?

How much is that?

The price is 100. But since you are all students, I'll give you a 20% discount.

Make it 80.

80?

It would only cost 10 to 20 where I came from.

This is the featured product of our store.

The cost is high.

So, can I buy half a bottle?

Half a bottle?

Young lady, you must be joking.

Owner, here. I'm taking that.

You are paying for the foot massage inside, right?

Is it enough?

This is...

- For the medicine. - Thank you.

I'll pack it up for you.

Thank you.

I will pay you back with my allowance next week.

How about this? You take me to dinner now and we are even.

Sure. What are you thinking about?

A feast, of course.

Let's go.

Young lady, here's your medicine.

Thank you.

It's okay. Take care.

[Shishao Tea Room]

Owner! Hello!

I want a share of fish balls.

All right.

Owner! And a marinated egg!

In a minute.

Sit.

This is the feast you were talking about?

This restaurant has been running for over a decade. The food here is delicious.

Don't overthink what happened today.

That's just how they are.

They say mean things, but they have no bad intentions.

Okay.

Here.

Thank you.

Dig in!

Go ahead. It's not poisonous.

It's actually quite delicious.

You should have some, too.

I'm not hungry. You go ahead.

There are a lot of delicious foods in Shenhai.

You could have a try at all of them if you can.

Owner! Another marinated egg!

All right!

I'm okay. One is enough for me.

It's for your head, not for you to eat.

Look at your bump.

It's almost as big as a horn.

Horn? What horn?

Here. A marinated egg.

- Check, please. - All right.

You are back.

Why did you buy this again?

I bought a bag just a few days ago.

The clerk in the supermarket recommended this.

I think the quality is pretty good.

And more importantly, it comes with an apron.

Oh, right. School is starting the day after tomorrow.

Have you got all your stuff?

School is starting tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

It's my fault.

I have been so busy that I forgot that.

It's okay. It doesn't make any difference.

School is starting soon. Don't catch a cold.

The temperature difference is huge between seasons. I'll get you a coat.

It's okay.

I'm fine.

It's probably because someone was saying mean things about me.

Marinated egg!

Stupid marinated egg!

I'm going to become a member of Shenhai High School tomorrow.

But I hope that I won't bump into that jinxed guy tomorrow.

[Shenhai High School]

It's really gone.

Ding Xian, hurry up or your dad will leave without you.

Dad, you should leave now.

I'll get to school myself.

I'm late.

Okay. You can go by yourself. Hurry up.

Ding Wencheng, be smart on your first day at work.

All right. I'm leaving now.

Take care!

Mom, have you seen my school tag?

No. Where did you leave it?

I...

What's with that smile? Did you take it?

No. I never touched it.

It must be you.

Ding Juncong, did you take it?

Give it back to your sister. Look how worried she is.

I didn't.

Ding Xian, have you found it?

No.

Where did you put it? You are always so careless.

I left it on the table.

You are late.

Come on, Ding Xian. You need to go.

I'm leaving now.

How could a girl sit on the floor?

Mom, I'm leaving.

Take care. Be safe.

Hello?

Jiang Chen, you had my bike for the whole summer vacation.

Bring it back to me at lunch break today.

I'm almost late for school.

Isn't school this way?

Hold on! Hold on!

Teachers. Students.

At this wonderful time of the year when flowers swing in the breeze,

we have received a new batch of students.

And I would like to welcome them to join us.

In the NCEE that just ended,

Shenhai High School has achieved...

Hello, why are you late on your first day?

I got lost.

Lost?

Why didn't you lose yourself?

Stand in the back.

Now.

Here, I would like to congratulate all of you.

I know a lot of you came from Shenhai Junior High,

which means you are familiar with this place.

Nevertheless, high school is a new beginning.

You are pretty early.

Bummer.

Create an excellent educational vibe together with our teachers.

I've known you for years.

What's wrong with using your mirror a little bit?

No.

Stingy!

You are the stingy one!

Then let me use it.

I don't want to.

Fine.

Years of friendship

just crumbled in an instant.

- Kong Shadi! - What do you want, Song Ziqi!

Why can't I get rid of you?

Like I want to be sitting by your side.

Big shot. You are late on your first day.

So what?

It's not like I'm the only one.

Why are you looking at me? Is there another seat open?

Where is your school tag?

This is bad. You two are finished.

Both of you will become the main targets of Aunt Liu.

Aunt Liu?

- Who's that? - Don't you know that?

The one who kept nagging during the new semester ceremony.

He's like my aunt.

There's nothing he won't meddle with.

From school performance to the length of students' hair.

He will control every aspect he can control.

The two of you must have had some experience already.

[Grade 3, Class4]

Hello, students.

I'm your new teacher in Politics.

My name's Ding Wencheng.

Mr. Ding, can we start the lecture right away?

Yeah, sure.

Please look at the papers from the last NCEE.

Let's look at the first question.

Stand up!

Hello, teacher.

Sit down.

Deng Wanwan, before the class leaders are elected,

you should be the acting class monitor for now.

Okay.

Let me just say a few things...

Look how proud she is.

Look how she's showing off? After Yang Chunzi asked for a leave, she's all snooty.

This is a competition with countless contestants and few winners.

And it starts right now.

There's no turning back.

Since you are in this school,

you are a part of Shenhai High School.

You should bring glory to the tag you are wearing.

You need to be prepared for the courses that are coming.

Is it necessary to keep notes of demotivational quotes like that?

You have a lot of subjects which are all hard.

Didn't someone teach you not to peek at someone else's stuff?

Besides, I have a name.

Okay.

Got it.

Listen. Don't try to hit on me again.

I'm hitting on you?

You keep talking to me.

No need to try to be close.

The seats will be rearranged soon.

We are just temporary deskmates.

Fine, temporary deskmate.

About the seats, we can wait.

The mock exam is in a month.

You have one month to review all the knowledge that you learned before.

And we will rearrange seats a month later according to your performance in the exam.

Besides, starting today, if I catch anyone without their school tag,

he or she can go home right away.

I'm not going to call any names here. You know who you are.

Uncle Ding.

Bocong.

I'm surprised that you are our teacher.

Where are you sitting?

Over there.

My eyes sometimes fail me. I didn't even see you.

All the seniors have a lot of books on the table.

It's natural that you didn't see me.

You are all grown up.

I feel like you were just dragging Xian across the street yesterday.

Oh, Uncle Ding. Xian is here, too. Right?

She's in Class Three, Grade One.

You were always Xian's model regarding studying, and that's why she tried so hard to get here.

Really? Class Three, Grade One is an honors class. Right?

She's so much better than I was.

Uncle Ding, I'm relieved that you are here, too.

Xian and you can look after each other.

Yeah. I can have lunch with her.

I have to go now.

They asked me to have a meeting.

Don't let me keep you.

Uncle Ding!

Uncle Ding.

- Okay. Thank you. - Take care.

[Ding Wencheng]

Siyue, let's go for lunch.

Come on, temporary deskmate.

Are you two going or not? I'm starving.

- Let's go. - Just a second.

I have something to discuss with you.

Teacher's Day is close.

What kind of gift should we prepare for our teachers?

Right, Siyue. Mr. Liu asked you to go and see him.

I think it's about the Academic Olympiad group.

Okay. Wait for me.

Sure.

What is taking Zhou Siyue so long?

There will be nothing left at the cafeteria, if he takes any longer.

Where is he?

I don't know.

Ding Xian, let's go for lunch together.

I heard that the cafeteria in this high school is fancy.

Unlike junior high.

Right. Let's not wait for him.

Let's go. Time for lunch.

Having lunch with my father at school is so embarrassing.

You guys go ahead.

Why is she running now?

It's all your fault.

You kept messing with her. That's why she won't have lunch with us.

How is this my problem?

Ask Master Zhou here about what he did to her.

I have nothing to do with this.

Explain to me, then. Why did she start running once she saw you?

Those are her legs. Ask her that question.

This is not right.

Don't you both have something like a... child betrothal?

What?

Don't you know this?

Let me tell you. It was a dark and windy night. There was no light at all.

- Our Master Zhou... - You just don't know when to stop!

I'll stop! I'll stop! I was just joking. I will stop.

Later.

Xianxian.

Bocong!

Why didn't you come to me since you are here?

I didn't want to disturb you.

High school is scary to even think about.

That's exaggerating. How about you? How do you feel?

I was telling you the truth, right? Shenhai High School is no joke.

Students from Shenhai High School are different from those from other high schools.

I don't think they are so different.

You don't need to think too much.

Make some friends.

That's what makes your life here meaningful.

I'll try.

Here. Try this.

Shenhai High School's famous dish: braised pork.

A benefit for seniors.

Look!

Little Monster knows that guy.

It's delicious.

Who's that?

I've heard of him before.

He's Su Bocong.

He's from a liberal arts class.

He's gentle and nice to people and has insanely good academic performance.

Unlike you guys.

Are you saying that because he's nice-looking?

I also heard he came from Keshan.

No wonder he knows Little Monster.

Just eat your food, all right?

Listen to me. I heard that this guy is amazing.

He has great academic performance, and he tries so hard.

He has always been in the top ten for the last three years.

Hard-core.

That's nice.

Siyue, have you figured out the gift?

- What? - The Teacher's Day gift.

I said that this morning.

I'm in.

Why are you trying to meddle here?

Is she asking you?

I'll think about it.

Ding Xian, your book is so new.

Didn't you go to cram school during the holiday?

No.

You are really taking it easy.

A lot of our classmates have finished learning the courses of the first year.

So what? I already forgot them all.

And I didn't even have any fun during the holiday.

I thought things would be easier now that I'm in high school.

But we didn't even have any books during the holidays.

You could have borrowed some from the seniors.

I almost forgot. You aren't from here, right?

You seem to be the first to come from Keshan.

It's only natural that you couldn't borrow any books.

[Grade 1, Class 3]

Stand up!

Hello, Teacher.

Sit down.

For this class, we will talk about functions.

Functions are actually easy.

They are not as complex as you think.

Let's check this question from the last NCEE.

This exam question like this is basically a question about point distribution.

Get the f(x).

How should we solve this equation?

The method of undetermined coefficients.

How? Louder!

The method of undetermined coefficients.

We've already learned this.

How come some of you still don't know the answer?

The girl in the back!

Stop looking.

Stop looking, I'm talking to you.

Stand up.

How do we solve this question?

I don't know.

What?

I don't know.

Zhou Siyue! Answer the question.

It's all because you were reading books unrelated to the course.

This is what you get.

According to the method of undetermined coefficients,

f(x) equals ax squared plus bx plus c.

Use that formula with the one given,

and we will know a=1/2 and b=-2.

And we already knew that f(0)=2, so c=2.

Very good.

Sit down, Zhou Siyue.

You, too.

Have you all got it?

Yes.

[Robotics]

Are you interested?

Not at all. Don't flatter yourself.

I'm talking about the book, not about me.

I'm not trying to hit on you this time, right? Temporary deskmate.

You are so boring.

You've taken so many notes, can you review them all?

None of your business.

Out of this paragraph, the only thing that matters is this formula.

You just need to remember that.

If you keep noting down everything, you will soon be out of this honors class.

You just merely passed the line.

You ranked 45 while I ranked 38. What gives you the right to judge me?
