[Episode 8]
[He Asked To Keep A Distance]

Hi, my brother.

You...

I...

How's your English learning lately?

Please speak English.

My Eng...

Nice to see you.

Nice to see you too.

Forget it.

Let's just speak Chinese.

English is too difficult to learn.

This meal will be taken until next year
if we speak English.

You should have said so earlier.

Recently, I'm very stressed

when I send messages in our group chat.

I even have to check it
with a dictionary.

English listening is very difficult.

What if I fail again
for the resit exam this time?

Me too.

With my Chinglish slang,

I'm going to fail.

The English exam is drawing near.

We can't just solely practice on our own.

We need to get an expert
to help us with that.

Who's the expert do you mean?

Ling Chen.

Really?

Can Ling Chen give us a tuition?

He's very good at it.

This morning,

he used a few simple
and understandable ballet moves

to teach me about English verb tenses.

So, I dated him

to teach me English
at the library tomorrow.

But, he only promised
to help you alone for it.

He definitely won't help
if seeing so many people later.

That's fine.

He won't be able to refuse

when he sees a gang of us

because that makes him embarrassed.

This is so-called
"Act first and report later".

You're diving into Classical Chinese
even before you're done with English.

That sounds good, Shi Xiaochun.

Very good!

Alright. Let's be serious.

So, let's meet at the library tomorrow

and learn English well.

That's all.

Eat.

Okay.

See you tomorrow.

Three, two, one. Stand up!

- Good morning, Mr. Ling.
- Good morning, Mr. Ling.

What's going on?

Our "Good-for-nothing League"
is completely ruined.

So, please help us, Mr. Ling.

- Please.
- Please.

- Please.
- Please.

You guys really are an alliance.

You even fail together.

But, you didn't tell me beforehand

that there would be so many people.

Tuition still go on
no matter how many people, right?

So, just teach them along then.

Take your seats.

Our task today is
to do a model practice set.

Since our final examination

and the CET-4 are synchronized,

so everyone has to complete
a CET-4 model practice set.

And then, I can also evaluate

your English mastery level.

- CET-4?
- CET-4?

The duration of the test is one hour.

Please answer carefully.

You should stop writing.

Xiao Bu.

Guys,

I think

that your English abilities
are quite good.

Not particularly weak.

It's just that each have your weaknesses.

Pan Pan.

See, you're particularly
good at translation.

But, your listening skills
are lacking a bit.

And you, Xiao Bu,

your problem is
the opposite of Pan Pan's.

Your listening is pretty good.

But your translation is a mess.

For Shi Xiaochun,

even though your reading comprehension
accuracy is relatively high,

I suspect you were just guessing.

No, I wasn't.

And also, all the grammar
in your essays is wrong.

Hong Jiaoyang,
your essay is well-written.

But, your reading comprehension accuracy
is relatively low.

So, what should we do now, Mr. Ling?

I think your problems are complementary,

so you can help each other
with your strengths and weaknesses.

The strengths are definitely
helpful to each other.

You guys

have to contribute your strengths

to teach each other.

I think that this method is workable.

Alright, let's do it in pairs.

We'll do another model practice set.

The duration is still an hour.

After finishing the paper,
exchange it with your partners

and correct each other's work.

Alright, hand it to me.

That's pretty good.

All of your annotations

and answering tips are very detailed.

I believe

that if you guys continue learning
with this method consistently,

your grades will improve.

I feel like we can all
pass the exam now.

That's great!

I think our "Good-for-nothing League"

will definitely succeed this time.

Come on!

One, two, three.

- We can do it!
- We can do it!

Mr. Ling.

Since we've all made progress today,

how about we take a break

and go outside for a walk?

Agreed.

The weather now is nice
and perfect for an outing.

I've just praised all of you.

And now you're going to relax and chill.

Mr. Ling, we need to have
the right balance while studying.

So,

let's go now.

Let's go.

Come on, Mr. Ling.

[Haicheng Dance Academy]

Hey, keep up with us.

Ling Chen,

are you happy

to stay occasionally

with a gang of underachievers like us?

It's not bad.

What do you mean by 'not bad'?

If you're happy,

just say it.

There's no need to hide your feelings.

That's good.

Good then.

- No one is afraid of English.
- No one is afraid of English.

Let's go.

- Come on.
- Come on.

- It's raining.
- There's a pavilion over there to take shelter.

Hurry up, let's go over there.

What a heavy rain!

Why did it suddenly
start raining so heavily?

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Since we have nothing else to do now,

I should start memorising
the vocabulary now.

Hey, you sneaky guy.

You secretly memorising
the vocabulary without us.

I'm just dedicated
to learning, you know?

Can't I?

I see that you've been on that page

for a whole week already.

Did you forget the previous ones
after memorising the latest vocabulary?

I've reviewed this
multiple times already, okay?

Don't simply make baseless speech.

Then, let's have a contest.

Sure, I'm not afraid of you.

Ling Chen.

I'll give this to you

and you can test us on that.

Is that okay?

Well then.

I'll just humbly comply with that.

But,

for those of you
who has memorized the least vocabulary,

you need to finish
an extra set of model practice later.

Okay.

No problem.

Let's start.

Dish.

(Dish dish d-i-s-h)

(Smell)

(Smell)

(N-o-i-m)

[Department of Ballet]

Sorry, I'm late.

What were you doing today?

I stayed with my friends.

Friends?

Don't you know that the year-end performance
is coming up soon?

And you still insist
on going out and play?

You mingle around with those slackers
in the class every day.

They can make jokes around
and fail the exam.

But, what about you?

A top student is destined to be lonely.

There are only
either rivals or partners around you.

Mingling around with these friends
who enjoy a life of pleasure

will distract you.

Ling Chen,

if you want to achieve your goal,

you're destined to abandon many things
along the journey,

Ms. Yu.

We haven't had training today.

There's nothing to train
for the one who's late.

By the way,

one of my students
is returning from abroad next week.

She's your senior.

Since you don't want to listen to me,

I'll let her guide you.

Ms. Yu.

It's fine if you don't want to practice.

But, please don't hold me back.

They're indeed your students.

Truly one in a million.

The Black Swan is arrogant and charming.

The movements are very precise.

But, the gaze still isn't fierce enough.

It needs to be more faultless

like a stab into the lover's heart.

As for the prince...

Of course.

There are no issues with your technique.

It's okay. Just be straightforward.

I invited you here today

to have some suggestions for us.

Your current balance is very unstable.

That makes you appear
to be hesitant when you dance.

It feels like you're not being yourself.

In the words of my mentor,

you don't even know what you truly want.

I'll have a speech
in the auditorium tonight.

Ms. Yu, I get to...

Your suggestion today

has been particularly helpful for us.

Thank you.

Now, make the most of your time

to infuse your emotions into it,
and there's still hope.

She's the first principal dancer
of The Royal Ballet.

Her mentor is Roman Balanchine.

She's his proudest disciple.

Didn't you refuse to listen to me?

I've invited your senior here

for closed training sessions
during the May Day holiday.

Don't waste this opportunity.

Both of you should practice diligently.

Shi Xiaochun.

Aren't you about to take the exam?

Why haven't you gone in yet?

I'm waiting for
my "Good-for-nothing League".

Okay then.

When you take the exam later,

stay calm and answer confidently.

By the way,

are you free tonight?

I'd like to treat you to a dinner.

Dinner?

Please don't misunderstand my intention.

I just want to thank you

on behalf of my "Good-for-nothing League".

Thank you for spending

your precious time giving us tuition.

So...

Please come.

Anyway, you have
nothing to do tonight, right?

I don't have any plans tonight.

Well then.

Keep me in touch
after you finish your exam.

Okay.

I get to go now.

Wait a moment.

Please, the expert.

Please bless me to pass the exam.

Please.

Are you praying to the expert?

Yes.

Well then.

Let me tell you
a great tip for the exam.

Sure.

Choose C when you encounter
something you don't know.

Hey, are you kidding me?

Good luck with your exam!

Alright. Bye. Goodbye.

Ling Chen, don't be anxious.

If you have any problems,
you can ask our senior's advice

during the closed training sessions.

Maybe she can assist you.

I don't want to join
in any closed training session.

That won't help.

Our senior has already said

that my biggest issue

is not knowing what I truly want.

No.

I don't think that's the issue.

We've been practicing dance together
since childhood.

We promised to work hard
to get into Haicheng Dance Academy together.

We've always been
the most perfect partners.

But, everything

changed after Shi Xiaochun appeared.

Manman,

it has nothing to do with Shi Xiaochun.

It's my problem.

No.

Ling Chen,

have you forgotten
what's the most important between dancers?

It's the tacit understanding.

We've been dancing together
since childhood.

We don't even need to adapt and adjust.

When you lift your arm,
I know how to complement your move.

This is the most crucial thing
between partners in pas de deux.

Ling Chen, please stay wide awake.

We're the ones on the same path.

Manman,

thank you for your concern.

But, I'd like to stay alone
for a while now.

I finally finished the exam.

I don't know if I can pass.

I feel like I didn't do well.

It should be okay.

Do you want to go play basketball?

I don't want to go.

I still have a rehearsal.

Are you waiting for Shi Xiaochun
to take her resit test?

See you tomorrow.

Let's go.

Do you fall in love with Shi Xiaochun?

Manman, I...

Forget it.

Stop saying anything.

I don't want to know the answer.

Shi Xiaochun skipped
Mr. Lin's class last time, right?

I'll write a disciplinary statement now

and submit the report.

Adding to her previous violations
of late-night returns,

her year-end performance

will be ruined.

Manman.

Do you want Shi Xiaochun
to not be able to perform

or join me for the closed training?

It's your choice.

Manman.

I have good news for you.

Mr. Lin requested our English teacher
to work overtime

to mark our papers earlier.

Everyone passed the exam.

This means the transfer of Hong
to a different department is settled.

You are our treasure boy.

Then, you only treat
the treasure boy to this?

Plastic sheet.

What plastic sheet?

This is called grilled cold noodles.

Have you never had this before?

Try this.

(Number 17, the meal is done.)

Alright.

Thanks.

How's it? Is it delicious?

Not bad.

What do you mean by 'not bad'?
This is amazing.

[Stinky tofu]
Try this.

Okay.

I will try.

How is it?

Pretty good.

That's why I say

that even a prince

should occasionally eat
some common local delicacies

to stay grounded.

There's someone
selling fireworks over there.

Look.

Let's go take a look.

Aren't they beautiful?

Let's sit here for a while.

You can draw circles like this.

This is fun, right?

You're such a strange person.

You've never played with these before.

So, what do the kids in your family play
during the Lunar New Year?

Didn't you play with fireworks?

I didn't.

And,

my family don't celebrate
the Lunar New Year.

Don't celebrate the Lunar New Year?

Then, what did you do during those days?

Dance.

Preparing for various competitions.

Or

on a plane heading overseas.

What a tough life!

Well.

I invite you to my house.

We, the Dai people

celebrate almost every festival
with a lot of rituals.

Thanks.

And,

to express my gratitude to you,

I've prepared a gift for you.

A gift?

Open it and take a look.

This is a smile enhancer tool.

Open your mouth

and bite it.

You're usually

so cool and distant,

making people to feel
it's hard to get along with you.

But, deep down, I know

you're a warm and righteous person.

Remember,

a man who smiles often
usually has good luck.

You should smile more from now on.

Thanks.

Shi Xiaochun,

I have something to tell you.

We're about to have
the year-end performance.

I want to reduce my leisure time

and spend more time on training.

So,

let's each give it our best.

I've thought about it for a long time,

and I think

it's better for us
to return to our initial distance.

You're such a funny person.

So, what kind of distance are we now?

Wait until the day

you can stand
shoulder to shoulder with me

on the year-end stage

with your own abilities,

I'll naturally let you know.

Thank you.

Ling Chen.

Such a coward.

I'll attend the closed training.

Alright. See you then.

Manman is dancing so well.

I'm sure I can't win her.

Keep it up, Little Peacock.

You can do it!

I think you're not only lacking a bit.

Shut up!

I remember

there are others in this class
who want to perform the Black Swan.

Come on.

What happened to Ms. Yu?

She makes the auditions open.

Hurry up, go!

Miss, I will do it.

Act 2 of the White Swan.

Get ready for the solo.

I didn't have high hopes initially.

But, it turns out
that your performance is quite watchable.

Thank you, Ms. Yu.

You can go back to your seat.

Tomorrow marks the start
of the May Day holiday.

We've been practising for so long.

Some students haven't made
any progress at all,

while some people
have improved significantly.

I think it won't be long before we have
to adjust the positions on the barre.

In Haicheng Dance Academy,
making no progress means falling behind.

The stage is inherently ruthless.

No one will permanently occupy

the middle position of the barre.

Whoever has the ability will be the one.

After the May Day holiday,

there will be audition for
the Black and White Swans.

Everyone should take it seriously.

Anything is possible.

Alright, class dismissed.

- See you, Miss.
- See you, Miss.

Little Peacock.

Ling Chen.

Today is Ms. Yu's birthday.

We would have a dinner together.

Let's go.

I've tried my best.

Now just let everything
go with the flow.

Mr. Lin.

You startled me.

The May Day holiday is coming soon.
Do you have any plans?

Stop it there.

I can tell from your expression
that it's not good news.

It's good news.

I want to request extra training
for the Swan Princess part.

No way. Can't you see?

You shouldn't disrupt my fishing plans.

Fishing isn't as important as teaching.

It's International Labour Day
on 1st May.

It is a statutory holiday.
I also need some rest.

Mr. Lin, please, I'm begging you.

The audition begins after the holiday.
The time is running out.

Ms. Yu even
complimented my progress today.

So I'll work even harder.

Maybe I can be chosen as the White Swan.

Who knows I'll bring
the glory to you as well?

How about it?

Ms. Yu praised you?

I didn't have high hopes initially.

But, it turns out
that your performance is quite watchable.

So, regarding the extra training...

Considering your progress,

I'll reluctantly agree.

Long live, Mr. Lin.

Happy holidays.

Don't flatter me.

You can leave now.

Goodbye, Mr. Lin.

Today is Ms. Yu's birthday.

Let's wish Ms. Yu

- a happy birthday.
- Happy birthday.

Thank you.

Stay pretty.

Thank you.

- Happy birthday, Ms. Yu.
- Thank you.

Take your seat.

Ms. Yu, let's eat.

Alright, thank you.

Ms. Yu.

I heard you still live
in the school dormitory.

We have an apartment
near Haicheng Dance Academy.

You can move there along with Ling Chen.

No need.

You're most welcome.

That apartment was
initially prepared for Manman.

She stays on campus now,
so she doesn't stay there.

The apartment is left empty now.

We're fine with where we're living now.
You're too generous.

Ms. Yu, we're getting along well.

You don't need to feel embarrassed.

You can just move there.

I don't need it. Thank you.

You see, you know nothing.

Lihua

is an associate professor.

What she pursues is the school ambience.

Lihua, I hope you don't take it to heart.

He has

a boss mentality,

thinking that spending money
is a sign of being high-class.

He is such a snob.

Oh, by the way,

the costumes for
Manman's performance this year

have been prepared.

How about I prepare one
for Ling Chen as well?

No need, there's still time.

The lead dancer hasn't been decided yet.

Why hasn't it been decided?

The two of them
have been preparing for so long.

This year, the school
is planning an audition.

Ling Chen will also need to participate.

Audition is just a formality.

There shouldn't be any problems, right?

Lihua.

Let's not talk about this.

It's just a piece of costume.
It's a small matter.

Ms. Yu,

we parents will always
obey the school arrangements.

The audition process

is a good thing.

That's fair and just.

Moreover, we all have faith
in Manman's abilities.

There shouldn't be a problem.

Come, Ms. Yu.

Come, Lihua.

Happy birthday, Ms. Yu.

Thank you.

Thank you for today.

You're welcome.

We get to go now.

Alright.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Goodbye, uncle and aunty.

Goodbye, Ling Chen.

Goodbye, Manman.

The closed training will start tomorrow.

Your senior will personally
come to guide you.

The student of Balanchine?

Yes.

It's 7 a.m., don't be late.

Alright.

Get back home earlier.
I still have something to do.

Mom.

Happy birthday.

I know you don't enjoy

having a birthday dinner
with Uncle Yu's family.

So, here's something for you.

Thank you, my son.

But, the best birthday gift for mom

is that you can dance well.

Good luck tomorrow.

I know.

Give me your phone.

But, it's not yet tomorrow.

I can still use it freely tonight.

Give it to me.

I'm leaving then.

[Lin Shi'an: Another year
has passed. Happy birthday.]

Another year has passed.

(Happy birthday)

[Ling Chen: Good luck
for the training camp tomorrow.]

(You're ignoring me, huh?)

(Well then. Don't ever talk to me again.)

[Shi Xiaochun: Ignoring me?
Well then. Don't ever talk to me again.]

Annoying.
