[Our Secret]

[Episode 17: Growing up]

This is our Anime & Comics Club.

And this is the pictorial of our club.

I'll let you take care of the contestant selection.

I trust your judgment very much.

President,

this is the pictorial you asked me to draw last week.

Good timing, Ding Xian. Let me introduce her to you.

This is the Chief Editor of Dream Journey Press,

as well as the organizer of the competition this time.

This is Ding Xian.

Very nice.

Are you a freshman?

Have you ever participated in any competitions organized by other presses?

No.

Drawing is only my hobby.

Looks like your president is right.

This girl is truly talented.

I'm glad to see that you've got gifted members like her.

Then I'll leave the competition preparation to you.

I'll see you.

Okay. Take care.

So, do you want to take part in the competition?

President, I've got things to do.

I have to go.

Hey.

How did you know I like this?

It's on the shop.

I hope the coffee won't keep you up the whole night like before.

You've been working on the paper for two days.

You still haven't finished?

Stop it if you can't finish.

You don't allow me to join the scientific research group anyway.

Why do you care?

The shop is closing. Go back early.

Let me walk you back.

I thought you weren't going back to school.

I need to get up early and go to the lab tomorrow morning.

It'll save me some time.

I see.

What are you smirking about?

Nothing.

Don't move.

Hey! Hey!

Who is this?

Isn't it Mr. Zhou, Zhou Siyue?

What brings you back to the dorm today?

I must make sure that stalker won't reappear anymore.

Stalker?

Just tell me directly that you sent Ding Xian to her dorm.

Didn't you?

Tell me. We are good buddies.

[Huaqing University]

Morning.

Morning, bro.

Spending the night in the dorm sure makes a difference for you.

[Circuits and Electronics: Data Integration of Analog and Digital Electronics]

Hey! Let me have a look.

Circuits and Electronics: Data Integration of Analog and Digital Electronics.

We learned this in our freshman year. Why are you working on this?

To go over it.

You've almost finished it.

If any student who joins our group this year happens to see this,

it'll be like winning the lottery.

Don't tell me you are going to bribe a junior girl with it.

Tell me the truth, and I'll let you borrow it.

No.

I'll finish it myself if I want to do that.

- Then give it back. - Wait.

Now... Now that you've done it, just do me a favor and lend it to me.

What's in it for me?

Look.

If I succeed, I'll do everything you ask me to do.

You know what? I know a girl who's Ding Xian's roommate.

She's very pretty.

Fine, you can borrow it.

Treat me to something nice if you succeed.

You bet.

I'm leaving.

But you just got here.

I'll go back and sleep a bit more.

Bye-bye.

Trust me.

This material will be very helpful to you.

Thank you.

Shall we add each other's WeChat?

If you have any questions, you can ask me.

Say, don't you think

this Yuan Fang is quite insensitive?

Ban Jiayu acts so cold.

Apparently, she has no feelings for him.

Yet he still keeps hitting on her.

What's that?

Test material Yuan Fang gave to me.

Look. Why do you guys

want to join the scientific research group?

It's tiring and hard to pass the test.

But now we've got the "cheat sheet."

Let me see.

Ding Xian.

Would you like me to make a copy for you?

Sure. I really need it.

Before answering the questions,

you need to make sure to read the question carefully and correctly.

Take this problem for example.

To prove...

Apparently, you didn't read it carefully.

You didn't even notice the wrong character.

Who would waste time looking for the wrong characters on the paper?

I would.

- Excuse me. - Yes?

Could you tell me how this self-ordering app works?

Can you teach me?

Pick the items you want, and check them on your phone.

And then press "order".

You can fetch your food at the counter later according to the number assigned.

But there's no introduction to the food on the page.

Could you please recommend some of your specialties?

You can refer to the recommendations on the menu before placing your order.

Then, may I please add your WeChat?

I'll come to your shop often in the future.

This is the QR code of the shop.

If you need a reservation, you can scan the code.

Sorry.

Let's go.

- What are you doing? - Hurry.

Aren't you busy?

But I still need to eat, right?

Don't you have a test coming up?

Still have time to come here?

Don't worry.

I accidentally got a "secret weapon."

I'm sure I can pass.

It's not that easy to join the scientific research group led by Professor Ye.

I thought I didn't have a chance either.

But after browsing through this material,

I find myself enlightened a lot.

And I suddenly understood quite a few knowledge points.

Look.

There is a table of contents and conclusions, as well as examples of wrong answers.

The owner is very meticulous.

Speaking of which,

this person is so much like you when it comes to the quirk of picking the wrong characters.

You wish.

Is it really my illusion?

Stop thinking about those pointless things.

Ding Xian,

is it too late for me to convince you to give it up?

It's good that you realized that.

Then, I wish you good luck.

Thank you.

Why don't you bring me a bowl of noodles? I'm hungry, too.

I'm a guest here today.

I want it, too.

[Huaqing University]

[Campus Art Festival]

[Poster Design X Ding Xian]

[Welcome to all of you]

Let me tell you. I inquired about it yesterday.

The results will come out today.

Ban Jiayu, I'm sure you'll pass.

I dare not check it.

I'll check it for you.

- Okay, you do it. - All right.

I don't see it.

Then stop looking.

Aren't you worried?

I didn't think I'd make it anyway. I'll figure out something else then.

Wait. It's just a choice.

Ding Xian,

you are in!

Look, she's in!

Look!

[7. Ding Xian]

I told you you'd make it!

I'm in! I'm in!

Siyue, the girl named Ding Xian...

really passed the test.

Is she your junior?

No.

She was my classmate in high school. But she repeated a year.

I didn't expect she'd get such high marks.

I'm a little surprised.

And her way of solving problems is similar to yours.

I'm not surprised that she passed the test. She's always been a top student.

Zhou Siyue! Zhou Siyue! I passed the te...

Speaking of the devil.

I'm sorry, Professor Ye. I didn't know you were here.

I saw your paper.

You did very well.

But there will be an assessment period for the new members.

You need to prepare for it.

I will. Thank you, Professor Ye.

You guys talk.

So great.

I'm one step closer to going abroad with you.

The following assessment will be harder.

If your project doesn't pass,

you won't be recruited to the core experiment team.

Don't always say discouraging things.

Ding Xian.

Are you sure this is what you want?

Doing experiments, writing programs,

and collecting data every day?

You'll get bored of it.

If you like it, I'll like it, too.

All right, I'll get out of your hair now. See you.

I ordered fried chicken.

But I fetched it.

Want it?

Then apologize to me.

Call me dad if you want it.

- Dad. - I'm sorry.

You can have it.

Here you go.

Disgusting.

- Hey. - What?

I have something to tell you.

Ding Xian has joined the scientific research group.

That's good. She'll be closer to you.

Nothing good about it.

Think about it.

Ding Xian repeated a year in high school.

She studied so hard because of me.

She entered Huaqing University for me.

And she joined the scientific research group also for me.

It's not her interest at all.

Just like Kong Shadi.

If Kong Shadi

gave up on the things she likes for your sake, would you let her?

That's why I left her.

But even so, I still think you can't help showing your care.

I won't.

I don't believe you.

[Laboratory Building]

In the next three months,

we'll do a project assessment each month.

Only those who pass all assessments can stay.

Dong Zhengfei will help you familiarize yourselves with the lab in the first week.

Starting next week, every student must hand in their project.

Without further ado, Dong Zhengfei, they are yours.

Okay.

Please follow me.

The lab is open 24 hours a day.

Professor Ye's classes are from 6:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m.

You can manage the rest of the time yourselves.

But if you really want to join the scientific research group,

you need to sacrifice all the time for your hobbies

and immerse yourselves in the lab

to prepare every experiment well.

Please take a seat.

Scientific research can be quite boring.

And because of that,

it takes full concentration when you are at it.

If you don't have the passion for it,

I suggest you give up early.

I can do it.

I'm sure I'll become a member of the group.

Why have you been flustered?

Lou Feng, do you have anything to eat?

Yes.

Hurry.

Take one more.

I can't. I'm late. See you later.

- Have another. - I'm running out of time.

♫ It makes me want to jump in your arms ♫

♫ You make me smile unknowingly ♫

♫ That wonderful taste is the chemistry of love ♫

♫ Lean on your shoulder ♫

♫ My longing for you has left a beam of light in my heart ♫

♫ Reminding me of the love you gave me ♫

Sorry, I'm late.

Again? Go ahead.

I'm sorry.

Today's assignment... Let me see...

Love can be exhausting.

Keep your spirits up, guys.

Professor.

Have you handed in your report?

Almost done. Please give me five more minutes.

Why should I give you more time?

Everybody has handed in theirs.

Is that your attitude to do scientific research?

Don't you have a sense of time?

I'm sorry.

Time to go back.

I can't.

I haven't found the bug in this program.

You'll wear yourself out sooner or later.

You are much busier than me.

How come you don't feel tired?

You should ask yourself

why you make yourself this tired.

Run the following program...

You've got to be kidding me, Ding Xian.

Are you going to live in the library?

Professor Ye said...

if I can solve this problem,

I can skip the three-month assessment period and become a member directly.

Then... what will happen if you fail?

Pack my stuff and leave.

Professor Ye,

you are giving her a hard time on purpose.

She's the one who's hard on herself.

This problem is difficult even for upperclassmen.

What's going on?

The code is wrong.

Siyue,

not just her, you also must figure out what you need to do.

It won't happen again.

What are you looking at?

Guys, help me think of an idea.

How can I start a conversation with him?

Go and ask him how to solve this problem.

Good idea.

Well,

here's a problem. I wonder if you have time to help me solve it.

Sure. Let me see.

You are only a freshman,

and your professor already assigned you such a difficult problem.

This is a problem given to Ding Xian by Professor Ye.

Ding Xian can't stay in the scientific research group unless she has this problem solved.

I'm impressed she's quite diligent.

It's all because of her high school classmate Zhou Siyue.

She stays up late studying every day.

She's dog-tired.

She works this hard because she wants to become a member and go abroad with him.

Is she that confident?

You know what?

- In order to join the group— - It takes some time to solve this problem.

It's okay.

Can I add your WeChat?

Please send the answer to me when you have it solved.

Okay.

There's only one candidate for the overseas exchange every year.

Has Professor Ye really decided to let Zhou Siyue go?

How was it?

I got his WeChat.

I mean the problem.

He doesn't know how to solve it.

This problem is that hard?

Is Professor Ye deliberately making it difficult for you?

See you.

Bro, I'm leaving, too.

Bye-bye.

Bye-bye.

Zhou Siyue.

I really don't know how to solve

the problem Professor Ye gave me.

I won't help you.

Please.

No way.

Help me.

Only this one time.

Cut it out.

Please. Once only.

Have you done the experimental demonstration?

Not yet.

Then write down the codes according to the thoughts in your mind.

Without referring to the book?

No matter how much you read,

you can never find the true problems if you don't practice.

Write the codes down first.

What are you doing instead of working on the problem?

I couldn't help.

Sorry.

How do you like my drawing?

Better than solving the problem.

Really?

It's not as good as the one I drew before.

Before?

What did you draw?

It's a secret.

Suit yourself.

You said it was a secret.

How could you tell me that?

Anyway, everybody knows that I like you and I like drawing.

Ding Xian.

I only hope..

that you can choose the things that you really like.

I will.

So, stop talking to me. I'll get back to my problem now.

No talking.

Mr. Zhou.

Done?

Are you sure?

Zero point.

Why?

What about the bugs in information security?

You didn't even notice such obvious information bugs.

If this task was assigned by a tech company,

you'd be sued by now.

But you asked me to write it down this way.

So, we've found the problems.

Do it again.

Zhou Siyue,

I feel like we are back in high school again.

Back then after the division of Arts and Sciences, you taught me math.

And now you are acting just as...

As what?

As mean as before.

You are also the same.

Still haven't made any progress.

With your current level,

you should consider changing your major.

Please go easy on me.

This is only my freshman year.

No one cares whether you are a freshman or not.

They only know that you are a student of Huaqing University.

Besides,

it's your own idea to join the scientific research group.

If you fail to pass the assessment,

I won't be surprised.

Professor Ye is very strict.

And I think...

there's no need for you to join the group.

Zhou Siyue, don't you underestimate me.

Plus, I have you, a computer guru.

I'm sure I can pass.

Hey.

What are you doing?

I need your help, and this is how you react?

Wait for me.

Our university is holding a welcome party for freshmen.

- Would you like to go with me? - No.

Classmate Zhou Siyue, you can't go on like this.

You used to enjoy activities like this, didn't you?

How come you seldom talk to people now?

One should focus on one thing at a time so that he can live his life with no regrets.

So boring.

Fine.

I'll learn from you, and I won't go either.

I'm going back to the lab.

Focus on one thing at a time, and live with no regrets.

Ding Xian!

Ding Xian!

Ding Xian?

Where are you?

Ding Xian!

Are you all right?

What are you doing hiding in the dark?

You are too timid.

Who's timid?

Don't talk nonsense.

I thought you left. Why are you back?

The power turned off.

What if the data went missing?

Of course, I need to come back and check.

I'm leaving.

Didn't you say you wouldn't help her after she joined the scientific research group?

So, what are you doing now?

I couldn't help.

Like I said, you are sharp-tongued but soft-hearted.

Eat your dinner.

What about you?

I'm not hungry.

Food is like fuel. You'll lose your energy without it.

You work and study hard every day. And you always stay up late doing experiments.

You need to take good care of yourself. Got it?

How can you get energy if you don't eat?

You are like my mother.

Come on, my son. Eat something.

Come here. Come on.

The pork shoulder is good

Is something wrong with your head?

What do you mean?

Your chopsticks.

They are upside down.

[Laboratory Building]

Professor Ye,

did I pass?

Very well.

But someone else solved it in the same way.

You must know who it is.

Professor Ye,

I admit that I asked Zhou Siyue for help.

But I...

You know Zhou Siyue better than I do.

He's very passionate about scientific research,

and he has the power to affect the people around him.

But he's one whom others want...

to keep up with yet can never catch up.

Ding Xian, you are a clever girl.

You should know what to do.

Chocolate! I'll have one.

Not this time.

This is a gift for someone else.

I'll buy some for you next time.

A gift?

Are you drawing this robot for Zhou Siyue?

What's wrong with this Zhou Siyue?

What do you mean?

You've pursued him for a long time.

If you two are really as close as you claim,

he should have expressed his feelings for you by now.

I didn't ask him to be my boyfriend.

Then why are you chasing him?

Don't get me wrong.

I'm just concerned about seeing you

going after him this hard.

I think being happy is the most important thing. As long as you won't regret it.

Now, I'll go wash up. Try to go to bed early.

- Goodnight. - Goodnight.

You like Zhou Siyue, which is none of my business.

But, Ding Xian,

I don't think you have a passion for scientific research.

I don't know how much you know about the prospect of this major.

Neither do I know what your plan is for the future.

But I hope you can think carefully before deciding to do scientific research.

Figure out what your choice would be if Zhou Siyue wasn't here.

[Huaqing University]

Ding Xian.

Senior.

Did you pass the test Professor Ye gave you?

I think so.

Then, will you go abroad?

I'm working on it.

I do believe that you are a smart girl.

Why are you wasting your time on something like this?

What do you mean?

You follow Zhou Siyue around every day.

I do admire you for giving up so much for the person you like.

But I don't think...

it's worth it.

Senior,

whether it's worth it or not is not measured by the effort paid.

Certainly, Zhou Siyue has great scientific research capabilities.

For him, you are even willing to do the things that you don't like.

But he will never give up on the things that he likes for anybody.

Things like going abroad. He won't give that up for you.

Doesn't matter.

I don't need him to do anything for me.

Then what if I tell you he's the one who told Professor Ye

that you aren't suitable for scientific research?

It's not important either.

Ding Xian.

Ding Xian.

Sorry, President. I didn't hear you.

I said, thank you for your help today.

You are welcome.

Hello?

Hello? Zhou Siyue.

Where are you?

What's up?

I knew you'd be here.

Something went wrong again with the program.

Could you help me check it?

Thank you.

What have you been busy with?

You never reply to my messages.

Doing experiments.

But you can't always stay in the lab.

How boring.

Why don't you join our Anime & Comics Club?

It's really fun.

By the way, we just received a drawing competition invitation.

A drawing competition?

Yes. The winner will be signed by the press directly.

Did Ding Xian sign up for it?

Her?

I do think she's quite talented.

If she signed up for it,

she might be able to win a prize.

But she refused.

She said she didn't have time.

I have no idea what could possibly keep a freshman like her so busy.

I've helped you revise it.

It looks good now.

But if you modify the program on purpose again,

I will not help you anymore.

So, you noticed, huh?

All right. If there's nothing else, you can leave now.

Okay. I'll take you out for dinner.

Why did you touch my stuff?

Calm down.

It's just a piece of chocolate.

A piece of chocolate?

This is a gift someone gave me.

Why are you yelling?

How was I supposed to know it was a gift?

I'll buy you one exactly like this, then.

So petty.

Thanks.

Have you finished the props?

Almost, President. Give me a little more time.

Ding Xian, are you okay?

Are you feeling unwell or something?

Do you need a rest?

No. I'm fine.

I'll finish it in time for tomorrow's rehearsal.

Okay.

President, is Xing Lufei here yet?

They are asking for costumes again.

Hold on.

I'll call her.

Okay.

What's the hurry? Here I am.

Great.

Are the costumes ready?

Almost ready. We only need two more.

Take a look at the chart.

See how far you are behind the schedule.

Lufei, where did you get the chocolate?

Zhou Siyue gave it to me.
