WRITTEN BY TWENTINE (ZHOU AIHUA)

Cut to the chase.

You don't have to worry.

Jiang Xingchi is…

Simple-minded with well-developed limbs.

Don't worry.

I have so many things to do.

I have no time for him.

I shouldn't have chosen a volleyball course for you.

I didn't come to this class to beat him.

You didn't sign me up

because of the choppy network, right?

I know.

You want me to move.

Your back is quite stiff

like a rusty door.

You write code at the base every day.

I just want to give you a chance to move around.

I accept

your kindness.

Attention, everyone.

We'll finish our course today. I'll test your catching ability.

There are 20 balls for each person.

If you catch eight, you will pass the test.

Twelve is excellent.

Sixteen is the full mark.

Any questions?

-No. -No.

All right, let's start the test right away.

It's okay. Don't be nervous.

I'll help you later.

Thank you.

Zhu Yun.

Here.

-One. -One.

-Two. -Two.

-Three. -Three.

-Four. -Four.

-Five. -Five.

-Thirteen. -Thirteen.

-Fifteen. -Fifteen.

-Seventeen. -Seventeen.

-Eighteen. -Eighteen.

Jiang Xingchi.

Don't go too far.

I can't give her 200 points.

Coach.

Thank you, Coach.

Next.

Are you happy now?

Sort of.

He's a little better than you.

Nothing more.

Next.

Li Xun.

Come on.

That startled me.

-One. -One.

-Two. -Two.

-Three. -Three.

-Four. -Four.

-Eight. -Eight.

Are you going to go on?

No need.

Eight is a lucky number.

Not bad.

I was thinking if you had failed,

you would have lost face.

What's wrong?

Li Xun.

Are you okay?

Li Xun.

Are you okay?

Li Xun!

Li Xun!

This is an old injury.

He didn't deal with it during stages I and II.

So now, it's getting worse and worse.

If he doesn't get treatment, he might not be able to walk.

At 9 a.m. tomorrow,

go to find Mr. Wang.

Show him this film

to see if he needs surgery.

Is it so serious?

If the surgery is scheduled now,

it could be done in half a year.

In the meantime,

he can take physical therapy.

If that is effective,

he might not need the surgery.

Okay.

Then I'll handle this first.

Okay.

Doctor.

Do you know where my brother is?

What is your brother's name?

Li Xun.

Li Xun?

Don't you know her?

Who's the family member?

I'm his classmate.

Who are you?

I'm his elder sister.

Well, miss,

Li Xun is still in the emergency observation room.

I can take you there.

Okay, thank you.

-Thank you, Doctor. -No worries.

This way.

Li Xun has an elder sister.

He has never mentioned it.

Don't worry.

He's fine now.

Thank you.

I live in the suburbs.

I came as soon as I got the call from the lecturer.

It's a long way.

Fortunately, you took care of him.

It's not a big deal.

He fainted during PE class.

I happened to be there.

Don't worry.

The doctor just gave him some painkillers.

He'll wake up later.

Have you eaten yet?

Why don't we go downstairs and get some food?

Okay.

Thank you.

There's more.

It should be my treat.

Let me pay you.

No need. Let me pay.

It's my treat.

I don't know what you like.

Did you come here from Linyang?

I came here when I got married.

My family was poor.

My mom was sick.

I just wanted to work,

but I didn't make much.

My brother

wanted to earn money to support our family at a young age.

His waist

suffered from this before.

The doctor said Li Xun's spine was injured.

What happened?

I'm the one to blame.

It was my fault.

He's so young.

What should he do in the future?

Don't worry, miss.

We'll force him to have surgery this time.

It's useless.

He won't listen to us.

He never listens to us.

He's lying in the hospital

like meat on the chopping board.

How can he have a say?

You're his family and you have the right to sign.

Will that work?

At worst, inject him with anesthesia

and push him to the operating room.

He can't say no.

The doctor asked me

to take his CT film to the Orthopedics tomorrow.

Why don't I meet up with you two tomorrow morning?

Let's go together.

Okay.

Miss.

What's your name?

My name is Zhu Yun.

Thank you, Zhu Yun.

Thank you very much.

Don't mention it.

Eat more.

I think Li Xun will wake up soon.

We can go and see him.

If he wakes up,

I won't go up.

I'll leave after this.

Please take care of Li Xun for me.

Thank you.

You've come so far, yet you refuse to see him.

Is something stopping you?

He probably doesn't want to see us.

It's his right

to do this.

Why?

Do you really want to know

what happened to Li Xun in the past?

When he was in high school,

my mom got sick.

To pay for her treatment,

Li Xun began to find ways to earn money.

Do you not believe it?

Of course I don't believe it.

My general order is useful.

How much is in your account?

This full-class divine costume

costs 100,000 yuan.

100,000 then.

Let's bet 1% of that.

1,000 yuan.

Okay.

I don't believe it.

If you can steal from my account in front of me,

from now on, you are my dad.

I don't have a wastrel son like you.

Look here.

Isn't this your account?

Awesome.

How did you do it?

The person you contacted on messenger is me.

I WANT IT. WHERE SHOULD WE DEAL?

I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THAT

Was it a trap?

Don't you know you shouldn't click on strange links?

The website was a Trojan horse.

Once you input your information,

I would get it immediately.

Be careful in the future.

-Then can you help me with-- -I can't.

I'll pay you.

3,000 or 5,000?

Say a number.

Fine, 1,000.

Count it. I kept my word.

You are so skilled, why not come to help…

Why is he leaving?

You are here.

Yes.

How is Mom?

The doctor just gave her morphine.

She is asleep.

She used to take morphine once a day.

But now,

she takes it every four hours.

This money…

Don't worry.

Labor gains.

Don't worry.

Here.

Can you stop dancing?

Li Xun.

Just let me dance

one last dance.

I'm afraid

I can't dance anymore.

Did you get a terminal disease?

I'm sure I can't pass the unified exams.

My dad won't let me dance anymore.

He is right.

You're like a pole.

Do you even dance well?

Don't let me hear music again.

You know

I'm only good at Latin dance.

My academic performance is really poor.

As soon as the exam is over,

I'll check the answers

and find out I didn't pass.

My dad said

he wouldn't let me dance

unless I pass the exam

and get the high school graduation certificate.

Otherwise,

he would send me to study business in the UK.

My favorite Latin dance.

Are you done?

I heard

our scores are stored

in the computer of the Academic Affairs Office.

-How about we-- -Don't even think about it.

I would never do anything that violates the school rules.

Let's talk.

"One would cut his flesh to save his mother."

You need money for your mom's hospital stay.

As long as I pass the exam,

my dad will give me pocket money.

Don't mention my mom.

Okay, fine.

I know.

Liu Xiang didn't run fast to be a thief.

You don't want to earn this money.

Mom.

With the sun,

it's so great.

Let's go.

One course of treatment is about 140,000 yuan.

What do you want to do? Rob me?

I don't care.

Listen up.

I have no money.

Li Lan.

Why are you back again?

Dr. Zhao said

Japan has developed a new targeted drug

to especially treat patients

with advanced liver cancer like Mom.

It's called…

It's called "Nib" something…

Lenvatinib.

Yes. That's the medicine.

Dr. Zhao said

this medicine may help treat Mom's illness

and it can prolong her life span by three months.

Never mind.

Don't worry.

I'll try to get the money.

We've entered it.

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS WEBSITE

MODIFY RESULTS (TEACHER)

Edit the marks yourself.

Great.

140,000

and 4,300.

The sooner, the better.

No problem.

Once the result is announced,

my dad can even afford 1,000,000 yuan,

let alone 140,000.

Is it cold, Mom?

The sun is warm.

It's just right.

Li Xun!

Li Xun.

Why are you here?

Ma'am, you look really good today.

Mom.

Do you still want to stay here?

Let's go back.

Okay.

Come here.

What's up?

The school knows about the mark change.

The Education Bureau

has also sent a director surnamed Liu to investigate.

They will find us out soon.

How much did you change?

-Ninety-five. -Ninety-five marks for each subject?

There are also 90.

Are you daft?

You usually get 60 marks.

But you changed it to 95.

I thought with higher marks,

my dad would give me more money.

Is she the person from the Education Bureau?

"Liu Ailin."

EDUCATION BUREAU OFFICIAL'S INFORMATION: LIU AILIN

Yes, that's her.

I saw her entering the principal's office.

Due to serious violation of school rules,

two seniors from Class 2, Li Xun and Fu Yizhuo

-have been expelled from school. -Expelled?

LINYANG NUMBER 8 HIGH SCHOOL

Don't worry.

I'm going to find Ms. Liu.

I'll say I did it alone.

The Education Bureau is not that blind.

Do you know

the 21 ports of the computer?

-What port? -Mom.

Mom.

Mom.

Mom.

Mom!

Mom, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Li Xun was expelled.

-Mom! -But he didn't get the money

to cure our mom.

-He didn't even -Mom.

see our mom during her last hours.

Please sign here.

FAREWELL ROOM

Let me tell you something.

When you are choosing an urn,

don't listen to those people spewing nonsense

and buy one which costs thousands of yuan.

Those businessmen are greedy.

Just buy one that costs a few hundred yuan

as long as it's good.

Dagang.

My mom is gone.

Your mom's disease was incurable.

It's good that she died early

before thousands of yuan get wasted and…

-Stop! -How dare you!

-You think I wouldn't hit you? -Dagang, what are you doing?

Stop!

Dagang, stop!

Li Xun.

-Li Xun. -Li Xun!

Are you okay?

He may have injured his spine.

Do a CT scan first

to check the situation.

He may need surgery at worst.

How much would that be?

Twenty or thirty thousand for surgery.

Twenty or thirty thousand…

Be careful.

Come on. Let's get a CT scan.

Come on.

I won't go.

What if your spine is injured?

We didn't even treat Mom.

Why should I be treated?

Li Xun's waist

was injured by my husband

on the day my mom died.

He has held onto his anger.

After a year of studying, he retook the college entrance exam.

Then he has not come home much.

How long haven't you seen Li Xun?

It has been quite a long time.

NANHU UNIVERSITY

When did you come back?

Who allowed you to leave the hospital?

What's the rush?

I've written the switched virtual circuit for you last night.

I saw it.

Nice job.

Li Xun.

Why didn't you tell me about your spine?

In your physical condition, you shouldn't play volleyball at all.

You can't program while sitting for long hours like this.

This position

is the worst posture for your spine.

It's already like this anyway.

The doctor said it slipped badly.

You'd better have surgery.

-No. -Why not?

I'm busy.

What do you mean?

What are you so busy with?

Why are you so nosy?

Is it any of your business?

I looked it up yesterday.

The risk of surgery is quite low now.

I won't have it even if there is one in a thousand chance.

I would rather die than risk becoming paralyzed.

-How do we do it? -This won't do.

This word is the most important.

You can copy this headline here.

Then we can use this one. That's it.

That's amazing.

-Green and pink. -Yes.

This hue…

It's good.

What about this purple one?

It's a little pale.

-This one looks better. -Red is better.

-I'll take these two and have a look. -Okay.

-Okay. -I'll return them to you later.

Okay.

CENTRAL GYM

"Central Gym."

Ms. Zhu, have you eaten yet?

Who placed this here?

I don't know.

PU SHU 2012 CHINA TOUR CONCERT

Hurry up and deliver it.

Don't be late.

He knew that Li Lan went to the hospital yesterday.

These siblings…

BE WELL

This way.

-This way, okay? -Does it look good?

Thank you, Zhu Yun.

It's fine. I like Pu Shu too.

My brother and I

used to listen to Pu Shu's songs together.

At that time,

he said he would take me

to Pu Shu's concert after he earned money.

Thank you

for fulfilling our dreams.

It's about to begin. Let's go inside.

-Okay. -Let's go.

Bag check.

Open the bag. Thank you.

Okay. You can go.

-Get in, please. -Okay.

Take care.

-Sure. -Thank you.

-Pu Shu! -Pu Shu!

-Pu Shu! -Pu Shu!

-Pu Shu! -Pu Shu!

SO FREAKING COOL

Li Xun told me

there was only one thing on his mind.

He just wanted our mom

to see the sun again.

Even if it was only one more day,

one more time.

All in all,

this is our destiny.

We have to admit it.

I won't admit it.

Have you made up your mind?

If this is dyed,

it won't be washed off.

If you can't get into school,

don't blame me.

Even if everyone in the world admits the fact,

I want to be different from them.

Nothing can beat me down.

I won't give in.

I only depend on myself.

That's nice.

Let's wait over there.

Come on.

Although Li Xun never says it,

I thank you on his behalf.

That's just the way he is.

He keeps everything in mind

but pretends not to.

He cares

but acts like he doesn't.

That's true.

But I can see

that he treats you differently.

He asked you to come with me.

He trusts you.

Is that so?

But you should be careful.

Don't be manipulated by him.

I understand him deeply.

Sometimes,

you have to make him worried.

In a relationship,

you can't always be the one making the effort.

Got it.

The taxi is here.

I'm leaving then.

Bye.

Thank you.

See you next time, Li Lan.

When did you get here?

Li Lan just left.

I saw that.

Why didn't you see her off?

She's right.

You care,

but you pretend otherwise.

You do it on purpose.

You're just afraid of being too sentimental.

So much nonsense.

Li Lan is very happy.

She said thank you.

What else?

And…

You should be careful.

Don't be manipulated by him.

Am I manipulated by him?

Am I so easily manipulated?

She said to make you worried.

I know.

It may not be good if it is delayed.

But I don't want to have surgery.

I can't afford to take this risk.

You're right.

The thought of Li Xun sitting in a wheelchair

is strange.

Stop that.

In the future, you have to move every half an hour

and take physical therapy every day.

The school hospital can do it.

I'll register you tomorrow.

Whatever.

I've finally figured it out.

Li Xun listens to you.

Li Xun, I know this is your project.

I don't have a say in it.

But I don't want to waste

my effort, time, and energy.

Whatever.

I've decided to quit the base.
