[Episode 14: You Are Brighter than the Stars]

In the exam, our class did excellently.

There are a few students who have made huge progress.

Ding Xian.

You scored 538.

Not bad. Keep up the good work.

And Sun Jiacheng,

you scored 559.

[College Entrance Exam]

[College Entrance Exam: 100 days]

Hello, everyone.

I'm Zhou Siyue from Class 3, Senior 3.

[2011-2012 Shenhai High School Coming-Of-Age Ceremony]

This may have happened to a lot of you.

You thought the classical Chinese text were too long...

and the math questions were hard.

We feel tired every day.

But we can never sleep over 6 hours.

A new gel pen would run out of ink in two days.

In days overtaxing my life like these,

I would ask myself a question:

Is everything we are doing worth the effort?

But it was on mundane and boring days like this,

we got to know a bunch of sweet and kind people.

We share the same target.

And we are working toward that target together.

We are fighting together.

In the vast space and limitless time,

even if we are destined to part ways,

watching the starry sky with you is the greatest thing that ever happened to me.

So, keep going,

and don't be afraid.

Days may look like they are repeating themselves,

but there will be a day when you suddenly understand the meaning of persistence.

Because I always believe in one word.

There is still glory on the other side.

[2012 Unified Entrance Examination for Colleges and Universities in Guangdong Province: Admission Ticket]

Hey!

Why are you here?

Are you expecting someone else?

What do you think? Do you have any place you want to go after the exam?

I want to get drunk.

Sure.

I know several good places.

We can ask Song Ziqi and the others to join us.

That's okay.

I'd like to hang out with Shadi alone.

Girls have a lot to talk about.

Let's go.

Cheers.

Why would anyone drink like that?

What's wrong?

I don't know what's wrong with me.

My brain went blank during the exam.

I couldn't think of anything.

It's the same for everyone.

I was also like that. I left a lot of questions unanswered.

The exam is over now.

Stop thinking about all those things.

It's hopeless now.

It's okay.

I thought I could get close to Zhou Siyue.

I tried so hard to study.

But in the end, I still can't do it, Shadi.

Will I ever catch up with him again?

You idiot.

You are the one to talk.

You are an idiot, too.

You clearly have feelings for Song Ziqi.

I don't!

I just...

I just feel sad that we are about to part ways.

That's all.

Yeah.

We are all going our separate ways.

Not just me and Zhou Siyue will be separated.

Me and you,

Song Ziqi, and You Keke.

We are all going our separate ways.

Why are you talking about that now?

I haven't thought about those things.

Let's forget that now.

Xianxian.

If we can start high school all over,

I will be your good friend on day one.

Me, too.

We will always be friends.

Don't forget me when you are at university.

You, too.

You are looking awful with the crying face again.

You look awful!

All right!

Let's sing.

Come on.

Shadi!

I really don't want to be separated from you.

Let's go back.

I need a minute.

Zhou Siyue.

Hey, hey, hey!

Zhou Siyue.

Ding Xian, you are hilarious.

You mistook the garbage can for Zhou Siyue.

He is Zhou Siyue.

Look. Zhou Siyue is over there.

You are lying.

Ding Xian.

Come here.

You two are ridiculous.

Siyue and I searched every store, and we still couldn't find you.

I'll take her back first.

Hey!

Why won't you talk to me?

I just don't want to.

We are not going to be deskmates or neighbors again.

Why would I care about you?

You are going to care about me.

I want you to care about me all the time.

It hurts!

I'm not going to care about you.

Slow down.

You...

I don't want to walk with you.

You are always walking so fast

and leaving me far behind.

I'll let you walk in front from now on, all right?

It doesn't matter who's behind,

I will not be able to walk with you again.

Get up first, will you?

Come on.

Hop on.

Didn't we agree that we will face everything together?

Siyue.

Zhou Siyue.

I'm here.

I've always been thinking

about what we would look like when we grow up.

Would we be leading a simple and happy life

as we did in high school?

I think so.

You are lying.

When have people ever stayed the same after they are separated?

Are we going to become strangers one day?

Stop the nonsense. You are drunk.

I'm not drunk.

Zhou Siyue, have you heard a saying?

Don't worry when the cloud covers the moon.

You are brighter than the stars.

Your future is as bright as the stars.

You are silly.

Stars don't shine.

I don't care.

I said they do, and that's what they do.

Silly.

Open your mouth.

So? Will you drink again?

Song Ziqi,

what should we do?

After this vacation,

I will not see you again when school starts.

We've been together since we were young.

All these years have passed.

How are you going to live without me?

Hey, hey, hey! It's okay.

It's just that I can't bully you or make you suffer again.

I'm fine.

You just keep lying.

You've been lying since we were young.

What did I do?

When we were in kindergarten,

I wet my pants once.

You told me to stand on the sports field so that my pants would dry faster.

And when we were in elementary school,

you told me that girls would also grow beards, and I should shave with a razor.

My mom chased after me to hit me for that.

The most outrageous one was before the senior high entrance examination.

You lied to me and said that the essential balm could lift my spirit.

You told me to put some on my eyelids.

Song Ziqi, if you hate me so much, just tell me.

No. No, hear me out.

I... I just think you are interesting every time I see you.

I want to hoax you.

Are you a fool or what?

I've been indulging you for so long, can't you see that I like you?

So why are you always mean to me?

You are always hitting me,

making me do things, and treating me like I'm your errand boy.

How could I tell that you like me?

Stop changing the subject.

Just tell me,

do you like me or not?

Kong Shadi.

I've been following you around...

for all these years.

If you are not the one I like,

then who is?

So... So, we will be having a long-distance relationship.

That's okay.

Maybe in a long-distance relationship,

you will like me even more.

I'm serious.

Don't worry.

Even if we have a long-distance relationship,

I will never let you go.

Then we have a deal.

You have to call me every day,

and you have to answer my calls and my messages.

All right.

We are going to see each other every month.

All right.

You can't lie to me or say bad things about me.

- You have to care about me. - All right.

If I'm bullied, you have to come to me right away.

And for festivals, anniversaries, and birthdays, you will...

What are you doing?

Mom, you scared the hell out of me.

You brat!

It's already afternoon, and you are still sleeping.

You didn't answer my call yesterday.

You came home late, smelling like alcohol.

You are letting yourself go right after the exam.

How did I get back?

Siyue brought you back.

Get up now!

How did you do in the exam?

Have you estimated your score yet?

Not yet.

Mom, I'm going to freshen up.

[2012 College Entrance Exams Results]

[Chinese: 130, Math: 114, Foreign Language: 121, Comprehensive Science: 211, Total Score: 576]

Ding Xian, your teacher said that you would get into

a top university in Hangzhou.

Mom, I don't want to choose a university.

What did you say?

I said that I'm not going to choose a university.

I want to repeat the third year.

Instead of going to a top university,

you want to spend money and redo the third year.

Have you become a nerd?

I could have done better in the exam.

I can't let this go.

I won't agree with that.

I will ask your teacher to choose a university for you right now.

Don't even think about repeating the third year.

Mom, can you stop meddling?

This is my life, not yours.

Can you let me decide this time?

I can live with the consequences whether they are good or bad.

All right?

Fine.

I will never care about anything you do from now on.

Don't worry.

I've packed everything.

We will be with you this afternoon.

We have to be by your side at a time like this.

All right. That's all.

What's going on, Mom? Are you going somewhere?

Siyue, come here and sit.

I need to talk to you about something.

What happened?

Siyue, we are going to Jiangling soon.

Is it because something happened to Dad?

I can't explain it in a few words.

All right, got it.

Mom, I need to go out shortly. I will be back soon.

Go.

I didn't do well in the exam.

I can't go to Jiangling.

So, where are you going?

I'm going to...

repeat the third year.

Repeat the third year?

You can wait for me in Huaqing.

Maybe if I outdo myself,

I will be joining you.

All right.

I have another thing to tell you.

I might be leaving soon.

Are you coming back this summer?

I'm afraid that... I won't be able to come back.

Fine.

I will miss you.

I have to go now.

I'm starting the third year all over again tomorrow.

Wait.

I have a parting gift for you.

Isn't this the robot called D2-T3 you showed me last time?

Not bad. You still remember that.

Why did you call it D2-T3?

It's a random name.

I'm going to give it a name.

All right. What do you want to call it?

April.

April?

I will always remember

the summer when I was 18

that was excruciatingly hot and tough.

Everything I knew was saying goodbye to me and leaving me.

All I could do was face reality

and say goodbye with a smile.

Xianxian, I would like to discuss something with you.

Director Wang from the senior year has always been the class adviser of honor classes.

They have a high university enrollment rate.

Your mom and I discussed it.

How about you repeat the third year in his class?

Great. I've also heard that Mr. Wang is excellent.

I might make more progress in his class.

All right. I should go now.

You should also head to school after breakfast.

Dad, I'm also done. Let's go together.

All right. Come. Let's go. I'll carry that for you.

Come on. We are leaving now.

[Shenhai City's Shenhai High School]

[College Entrance Exam: 320 days]

All right. Guys, I'll make this short.

You all understand the pressure of the third year.

I'm not going to say big words here.

But I do have one request.

Carefully write down the university you desire

and start to work towards it today.

We have several students repeating the third year.

I hope they can face their past

and review themselves.

Make better choices this time.

As the third year starts again,

I feel like everyone is drifting away from me.

They are all walking on the right path towards the future,

and I'm the only one off track.

I'm missing Zhou Siyue and everyone else.

As shredded and obscure

as the days are,

I can never let myself relax for one second.

I'm worried that once I stop,

countless people will surpass me

and make me a stepping stone.

[Huaqing University]

Professor Ye, hello. I'm Zhou Zongtang's son.

You must be Siyue.

Old Zhou told me a lot about you. We are finally meeting today.

Yes. I've heard that you and my dad are good friends.

That's why I came unnoticed today.

Not at all.

Here is the thing, Professor Ye.

Do you know what happened to my dad?

Ding Xian, is Huaqing your target?

Yes.

Ding Xian, a year is not too long or too short.

If your target is Huaqing,

you will need to put in more effort than the others.

I know.

And I will.

- Hello. - Hello.

This is a letter for Zhou Zongtang. Please sign it.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Eat your food.

Is it for me?

Yes.

[Notice of Suspension]

You guys eat. It's okay.

I need to make a phone call.

Mr. Wang. Sorry.

I've been troubling you with this.

Zhou's thesis

was reported for suspicion of plagiarism and fraud.

He's under investigation now.

Siyue.

What are you thinking about?

Have some food.

You too.

I've seen everything through now.

There will be a day when the truth comes out.

Dad.

What's happening?

I've been suffering from minor hypoglycemia.

A doctor has prescribed some medicine for me.

Don't worry.

Go back and rest.

Dad,

I went to see Professor Ye today.

I know...

that you are worried

that I will be affected in school.

But I'm not afraid.

I believe in you.

Sorry.

I've brought this on you and your mom.

We are a family.

We are supposed to share burdens.

Besides, there are so many professors in Huaqing,

people may not know you at all,

let alone me.

You haven't had anything yet, right?

I'll warm up the dishes.

- Hello? - Hello?

Have you got the result of the entrance examination today?

How did it go?

Not bad.

I got a high place on the rankings.

Why are you calling me all of a sudden?

I just want to tell you that...

I've sorted out everything here.

And I will report to school tomorrow.

Don't worry about me.

How about you?

How are you doing in school?

Ding Xian?

What's wrong?

I'm fine.

My marks and ranking...

in this exam...

are both good.

The teacher said that...

I might get into Huaqing.

Oh, right!

Can you take some photos for me

when you arrive at Huaqing?

You are silly.

Of course, I can.

I want to know what Huaqing looks like.

You'll know when you get here.

I hope everything can go well.

Are you really okay?

I'm just a little tired.

I feel sleepy.

Then go to bed.

Everything will be fine.

Everything will be fine.

Siyue.

Mom.

You are still up.

I just finished the laundry and I'm about to hang them on the balcony.

Why are you still up?

Why are you putting these away?

These are all useless objects.

I want to see if I can sell them.

Aren't these your treasures?

That's when I was young.

I'm all grown up now.

Right, Mom.

I might need to go back to Shenhai

before school starts.

Ding Juncong!

Did you stay up all night playing games again?

It's a weekend.

What's wrong with playing games?

You are about to be in junior high soon.

You need to focus on studying.

If you could learn half as hard as your sister does,

I will never say anything about you.

My sis has become a nerd already.

Stop the nonsense.

Xianxian, did you stay up late studying again?

Yeah.

Mr. Wang told me that you have made

huge progress a few days ago.

You did really well in the exam.

But I have to warn you,

don't work too hard.

You need to relax occasionally so that you won't break.

Okay.

I understand.

I'm going back to my room now.

Is that all you are going to eat?

I'm full.

She can't keep this up.

Her spirit is getting worse.

I heard her talking in her dream last night.

She was reciting formulas in her dream.

There's nothing I can do about it.

Why don't you go talk to her?

I'm not saying anything.

I didn't want her to repeat the third year

because I didn't want her to be stuck in this.

What's the point of all this?

Enough. Stop talking.

It won't do anything now.

What should we do?

I don't know.

I know my sister

might listen to this one person.

Who is it?

Mom, I'm not hungry.

I'll skip lunch. Don't wait for me.

Xianxian, it's me.

Senior Brother!

I thought you were in Jiangling right now.

I'm here to visit your parents

and check up on you by the way.

Come on, let's go take a walk.

Don't lock yourself in your room studying.

Did my parents ask you to come?

They are worried about you.

I'm fine.

Repeating the third year...

must be tough.

A lot of people are living a tougher life than I am.

This is nothing.

Senior Brother,

do you know that...

there's a girl in our class named Lin You?

She's repeating the third year for the third time.

Her target has always been Nanjing University.

But she's doing worse during each year.

I think she's the most painstaking

and hard-working student in our class.

But the harder she works, the more often she screws up.

She once had a meltdown right in our classroom

and tore up all the books and papers.

Repeating the third year...

is terrifying.

Xianxian,

is this what you are thinking about?

Actually,

if you are tired,

if you want to take a break,

no one will blame you.

Senior Brother,

I'm so tired.

I'm really tired.
