[Episode 27]

Zhou Yajuan!

What's going on, raising your voice like that?

Did you know that Xiao Xue started short track speed skating training again?

- I... I knew. - What?

- I wanted to tell you earlier when we were eating. - Enough!

I, Tang Hongjiang, don't even have the right to know in this family?!

You knew; Zhou Ran knew; everyone knew!

Where are you going?

Where am I going? To LUU!

Liao Zhenyu.

- Uncle. Auntie. What are you doing here? - Is Tang Xue in there?

She is in... class.

Auntie Tang. Uncle Tang. Hello!

Is Tang Xue in there?

She...

is sick. She's resting in the dorm.

I got it all mixed up. She has a fever.

Take me to her dorm.

Talk nicely. You are scaring the kids.

She's not in class or the dorm, nor is she sick.

Isn't that right?

Take a good look at this.

She transferred departments, didn't she?

Uncle...

She didn't deliberately keep it from you. Maybe she has other plans.

No matter what plans she has, she can't switch majors without letting us know.

Is this something trivial?

Liao Zhenyu, let me ask you again. Where is she?

She's in the sports center.

Take me to her.

- Listen to me... - I've listened to you my whole life.

Today, I won't be listening to you.

- Let's go. - This way.

Uncle Tang, listen to me...

She only did this because she was afraid you'd object, and she's realized that

speed skating is her real dream. That's why she did this.

She's given up a lot.

- Besides, after switching majors, she didn't neglect her studies, she's still very diligent in her classes. - Exactly.

She also said you were her biggest supporter when she did speed skating as a child. Wasn't that so, Uncle?

Uncle, please don't be mad anymore.

It really wasn't easy for Master Tang to join the speed skating team.

Say, without the ¥50,000 from Li Yubing, she wouldn't have made it in even if she wanted. Right?

- So– - What? She casually took other's money?

¥50,000?! (about $7,055)

- Did you know? - Are you an idiot?

- I just wanted to help. - This isn't helping!

Take me to see her immediately!

The opening for the last Olympic City Cup was quite successful.

They want to host a couple of offline hockey promotional events targeting children.

They want to invite you.

I think it's a good opportunity; beneficial to you, the club, and the Olympic City Cup.

Yubing, what do you think?

I like it. It can promote ice hockey.

As long as it doesn't conflict with game time. I'm willing.

Don't worry. I'll definitely arrange it well, my little ancestor.

- Hello? - Where are you? Come to the rink!

- Something happened to Tang Xue! - What happened? Did she get hurt?

I called her but she didn't pick up. Come over now! Bye-bye.

Hurry up.

Today, we practice how to start.

The quality of the start decides the result of a match.

- Especially you, Tang Xue. - Understood.

Get ready.

- Tang Xue, be steady. - Don't be so impulsive.

Get up and we'll do it again.

Ready?

- You've grown up, right? You can make your own decisions?! - Enough.

Let's talk outside.

Transferring departments is such a big matter, why didn't you discuss it with us?

Do you even care about us?

I wanted to.

But I was afraid that you'd object and worry.

- So... - So what?

How old are you?

What can you achieve on this path?

No matter how well you skate,

can you make the national team? Can you win?

Tang Xue, you are too willful and rash!

Dad, I am willful,

but I am not being rash.

I am very clear about what my goal is and what I am pursuing.

Of course, you know what you are pursing!

That hockey player!

Do you think I don't know what happened during winter break?

What you did is just completely inappropriate!

Tang Hongjiang, that's enough!

Can't I control you anymore?

You are on her team. Don't interrupt me.

Dad,

do you think

I really am a girl

who is not sensible, doesn't know how to reflect, or make judgments?

I don't even know what is appropriate?

Do you think that after all these years, this is the daughter you raised?

I don't care what others think that I can't do it.

Why do you think so as well?

Enough. Go back with me.

We'll discuss what happens next.

You can't touch short-track speed skating ever again!

- Then I won't study anymore either! - You're being disobedient! - Enough!

- What are you doing? - Tang Xue's Mom and Dad!

Tang Xue's Mom and Dad, please calm down first.

Calm down.

I'm the short track speed skating team's coach, Chu Xia.

I want to clarify something about Tang Xue's situation.

Let's go to my office and have a chat.

Okay.

- Xiao Li, continue training with them. - Okay.

Let's get back to training. Yuwei leads this group. Come on. Get ready.

This way.

This is Xiao Xue's training records from when she started till now.

Please take a look.

Take a look.

I don't think Tang Xue is a willful and rash child.

Quite the opposite. She clearly knows what her dream is.

And she's willing to give her best for it.

After she joined our team, she's improved significantly.

She is an athlete that has great potential.

We'll participate in the National University Championship.

I want to give her an opportunity to prove herself.

During this time, she especially needs her parents' support and understanding.

Coach Chu,

as parents, we don't want to become the one killing her dreams.

However... the scene when she got hurt,

even until now...

That scene,

I don't ever want to witness it again.

Coach Chu,

you know sports better than me.

In this field,

there are plenty of teenagers

who are excellent enough to join the national team.

Right?

Tang Xue...

First, she doesn't have an edge in her age.

And she was in recovery for over a year due to her injury.

Now she's training again.

Not to mention a breakthrough.

It'll be extremely difficult to

even be on the same level as before.

I understand completely.

I was an athlete, too.

I can also understand Tang Xue.

For her, some things are more important than her life.

As her parents, don't you want her to be happy?

Happy? Of course, we do.

We want her to live a happy life.

If she chooses speed skating,

after all the training and competitions, she doesn't get what she wants,

would she be able to accept the defeat? Would she?

How many champions are there?

Many work so hard for a championship

and they end up with nothing.

How many people can choose a profession they like?

They all survived.

As parents, we only hope that

she doesn't take detours or take fewer detours. (T/N: going the wrong way)

That's true. Champions are limited.

We athletes are not always champions.

It doesn't hurt the feeling of happiness when we are doing these things.

Maybe short track speed skating to Tang Xue is an impulsive decision.

If so, she'll regret it for some time.

However, if she never tries or works for it,

she'll regret it for the rest of her life.

- I– - Old Tang, I think the coach is right.

When I knew she went back to speed skating,

I was torn as well.

But... she's a grown-up now.

Isn't it time for us to learn to let go?

I remember you always took her to train for speed skating when she was little.

At that time, you would come back and tell me, the hobby Xue chose was great.

Look how happy she is on the ice.

Why can't you think it through now?

- I– - I'd rather worry than have her be unhappy.

As her coach,

I truly believe she's very talented.

If you really want her to give up,

at least let's see how she does in the upcoming competition and then decide.

Is that okay?

Sorry, Coach. He can't turn his head around yet.

We'll discuss it more at home.

Thank you for your help at this time.

Thanks.

- Then we'll get going. - Okay.

Sorry.

I only cared about what I like or not.

I never thought about your feelings. I was wrong.

But there are still things I want to say.

I didn't choose speed skating because of impulsivity.

I chose to gamble.

A gamble where neither time or age

is my advantage.

Since I'm now standing by the wheel of fate,

please give me a chance.

If I win,

it means that without any advantages,

I'm destined to be an athlete.

If I lose,

I'll accept it and give up immediately.

♫ Is she better or worse? ♫

Okay.

This is your last chance.

♫ I once ruined all that I had just wanting to leave forever ♫

♫ I once fell into bottomless darkness, wanting to struggle yet unable to free myself ♫

♫ I once was like you, like him, like that wild grass and flower ♫

This is the money you lent her. I've deposited it on this card.

The password is the last 6 digits of your cell. Take it.

Thank you.

The old saying is correct.

One depends on parents at home and on friends like you when leaving home.

Thank you.

Auntie. Uncle.

She's paid some back already.

Paid back?

Xue'er, how did you pay it back?

- I saved some every month from my living expenses. - You–

I know I have to pay for my own training fee. I'm not that stupid.

You child! Do you not care about your health?

Auntie. Uncle.

In the past, I decided on my own to pay for her training fees.

She didn't know about it in the beginning.

But she stayed on the team because of her own skills and Coach Chu acknowledged it.

It has nothing to do with the training fee.

Well,

I want to talk to Li Yubing in private.

Dad.

Okay, that's fine. Xue'er,

show me around your school.

You two carry on.

Let's go. Hurry.

Let's go.

Your campus is quite big.

There's even a lake.

Mom,

what does Dad want to say to Li Yubing?

No matter what it is. He has to speak his mind so things get resolved.

Daughter, I've raised you like a cabbage for almost 20 years.

A dog is about to carry you away. Can't we say anything?

You can't raise a cabbage for 20 years. Besides, he's not a dog.

He is not?

I wonder who it is that every time Li Yubing is mentioned at home, it was always "dog, dog."

It's my exclusive right.

Fine, a woman of age can't be kept from marriage. What a true saying.

Let's check on them.

No need to. Why do you need to go back? Would your dad eat him alive?

How did Dad know anyway?

I have never liked the idea of

Tang Xue and you dating.

It was this in the past, it still is right now.

I didn't like it in the past because you lied to her.

I don't like it now because of your choice of profession.

I asked around and know that you've signed a contract with XDragons.

You're bound to compete in professional competitions in the future.

I don't need to talk about the danger in competition,

you know it better than me.

Xiao Xue is normally a careless girl.

But I know her.

She has the softest heart.

If you get hurt in a game

and it was a serious injury, then to her,

it'll be a heavy blow.

Being worried and fearing to lose the most important person, I've already experienced this kind of suffering.

I don't want to experience it again.

I also don't want her

to experience it.

You'll only truly understand my current feelings when you become a father.

I understand. My mom is also afraid to watch my games.

As you said,

she fears that I'll get hurt,

but she continues to support me in hockey

only because I love it.

I have a group of great teammates, great brothers.

We trust and help each other.

We try to win every game.

♫ Pacing back and forth on the road ♫

♫ Are you leaving? Via Via ♫

♫ Fragile and proud ♫

♫ That was how I used to be ♫

To us, hockey

is a dream that we all

protect and fight for, for the rest of our lives.

I understand there are collisions and injuries in a game.

More than that, hockey brings us responsibility,

the courage to face difficulties, and the athletic spirit of never giving up.

If I give up hockey because I'm afraid of injuries,

I'll always be the 12-year old boy

who couldn't keep a promise and ran away in the face of problems.

Yes.

I admit that you are doing well right now.

What about in 5 or 10 years?

In his 20s, an average person just stepped into society.

But it's perhaps already the end for an athlete.

I also don't know how far I'll go.

But I know that we need people like me to keep fighting so that China can become strong in hockey.

Sooner or later, someone like Xu Feng will appear among us.

An athlete who is active in international competitions.

To tell the world,

us Chinese are also good at ice hockey.

♫ I once crossed over the mountain and sea, also passing through the vast crowd ♫

Xue'er, work hard. We are waiting for your good news.

Li Yubing, good luck to you as well.

Thank you, Auntie. I will.

Dad, do you have anything to say?

I hope you don't win.

Then you'll give up.

What are you talking about?

Of course, if you do win,

you should keep training.

Xue'er, don't hurt yourself. We are old.

We can't take it anymore.

Thank you, Dad.

Don't worry. I'll definitely take good care of myself.

Okay, okay.

- Let's go. Don't let him wait too long. - Okay.

You two go back.

- All right, let's go already. We are out of time. - Okay.

Go back.

Bye-bye. See you.

See you.

Finally, my dad gave me his permission.

But him coming here really was too sudden.

I was not ready at all.

How did he know?

My mom said he saw it in Bian Cheng's Wechat Moment.

Then...

he found out.

Show me.

That's weird.

These pictures were not published recently, they're from last semester.

Why is he posting them now?

What do you mean?

Is it possible that he did it on purpose?

I don't think Bian Cheng would go that far.

You trust him this much?

Because he didn't know that I hid it from my family.

Only Zhou Ran knew. My mom said she found out from her.

Really? I just don't think this is a coincidence.

Why don't I go ask Zhou Ran?

No.

That's like giving Tang Seng to the monsters. (T/N: Tang Seng is the monk from Journey to the West)

Bajie, you were the one that arranged for her to send me breakfast back then. (T/N: Bajie is the pig-like character in Journey to the West)

Your last name wasn't Tang yet.

When did I change my last name to Tang?

- Right now. - Right now?

Turns out, Tang Xue got her temperament from her dad.

Mind your own business.

So, what's his decision in the end?

He said it depends on her results for the upcoming championship competition.

If she doesn't do well, she'll have to give up.

What? Give up short track speed skating?

It's an ultimatum. Are you confident?

No.

I didn't know what I was thinking. I just...

I felt bad seeing them like that and my brain just went blank.

I felt an urge and said those words.

This is the power of family ties.

I know my dad doesn't want me to skate at all.

Parents never win the war against their children.

Tang Xue, good luck!

I really... am not worried about myself right now.

I only worry about Li Yubing.

You didn't see how my dad looked at him today.

It seemed like killing him a thousand times wasn't even enough.

That intense?

Hello.

Tang Xue, I'm really sorry.

I heard that your dad went to your school.

I didn't know my posts would make him so angry.

I didn't know he objected to your training for speed skating.

You didn't do it on purpose. It's okay.

He'll be fine in a few days.

Are you okay?

I felt too guilty to call you.

I didn't know how to explain myself.

How about I gift you a pair of customized skates, as my apology?

Don't. They are too expensive.

You must still be angry.

I'm really not.

Then at least let me treat you to a meal? Otherwise, I'll feel really bad.

Okay then.

Enjoy.

My aunt called me.

Your post was such a heavyweight bomb.

Especially when my uncle found out that

Li Yubing paid for Tang Xue's training fee.

Now it's even more certain, without Li Yubing,

Tang Xue would have never started training again.

This is simply a barrier for them.

Nothing special.

Are you not worried that Tang Xue will blame you?

All I did was post a set of research photos.

I didn't make anything up. Why would she blame me?

Exposing her secret so publicly,

what a good move.

Without your help, I wouldn't have succeeded.

That girl needs to suffer a bit. Who told her to take away my Ice God?

Now she has plenty to worry about.

Actually, I didn't want to do this either.

You don't know how much her dad hates her skating.

With my uncle's temper, she probably got an earful this time.

If she can't perform well next time,

is she really going to give up?

She must be...

Zhou Ran, did you notice that you keep talking about Tang Xue?

Do I?

It doesn't look like you care about Li Yubing.

Do you really like him?

Of course, I do.

Do you regret what you did, now that she's upset?

It was never my goal to have her scolded.

I want her dad to step out

and object to Tang Xue and Li Yubing dating.

That's what I want.

Okay.

Then tell me. What are you doing next?

These tactics are just external forces to them.

Most importantly is what he personally thinks.

So we need to work on them personally.

I still have to participate in the University Student News Selection event.

I need to get home to prepare. Why don't we leave now?

Okay.

Are you there? I heard a secret today.

I don't know if I should tell.

A secret kept is a loyal servant.

A secret told is a culprit.

If it's a secret about hurting others,

should I still keep it?

Everyone involved is

either a collaborator or a conspirator.

If latter, follow your heart.

Push.

Bing-bing.

- Push. Rest. - Bing-bing.

How rare. Why are you so diligent today, Fatty?

I have something to tell Bing-bing.

I'm telling you...

I know why Tang Xue's dad came all of a sudden.

Dirty tricks. These two are unscrupulous.

I didn't expect my goddess to behave this way. I'm not her fan anymore.

But I'm afraid they have more tricks.

I won't give them that chance.

[School of Journalism]

Hello, Professor Li.

I signed up for the News Selection event.

These are some topics I prepared. Can you please take a look at them for me?

Okay.

These are all good topics. We'll discuss it more after the meeting.

Okay. Thank you, Professor Li!

Ready? 3, 2, 1, begin.

Welcome to the "Three Hundred Million People on Snow and Ice" Program.

Today, we are honored to have

- Director Zhou from the Provincial Sports Commission. - Hello.

First, Director Zhou, after successfully bidding for the Winter Olympics,

China proposed the campaign, "Three Hundred Million People on Snow and Ice."

Ice Hockey is a part of it.

Unfortunately, compared to other ice sports,

ice hockey doesn't receive as much attention.

What do you think of that?

Actually, our country has been greatly promoting

the development of ice hockey.

Now many universities and colleges

are modeling after school-run enterprise collaboration, bringing in investments.

It facilitates the promotion of ice hockey

and the nurturing of talents.

It's great. Student Bian Cheng, I saw one of your reports before.

It was about the enterprise collaboration between

LUU and XDragons. It was very good.

Today, you should be the one talking about it.

Director Zhou, you are too humble.

Then I'll give a brief introduction to

the first school-run enterprise collaboration,

the LUU XDragons Team. In the last season,

they integrated resources from both the university and the club.

Not only have they done well in the league,

but set a great example.

I've learned that before this season,

Zhen Group invested in Lincheng's Black Scorpion Team.

It's the second school-run enterprise collaboration after XDragons.

I believe this model

will be further adopted in China moving forward.

There will be more teams.

And we'll conduct more deep investigations

to follow the status and development of

the domestic ice hockey scene.

Bian Cheng.

Classmate, we are recording. Please leave.

I need to talk to you.

Director Zhou, let's rest for five minutes and then continue?

Okay.

- Go ahead. - Stop playing tricks.

I don't understand what you're saying.

"It was not my goal to have Tang Xue scolded."

"Uncle Tang stepping out to object Tang Xue and Li Yubing dating

is the result I want."

Did you say these?

You also discussed it with Zhou Ran yesterday.

What?

If you're a man, then be frank.

I did say it. But I did it for Tang Xue's good.

As her dad said,

Tang Xue is no longer a good candidate for speed skating anymore.

She's too obsessed.

Giving up is her best choice.

It's her choice. There's no need for you or Uncle Tang to make it for her.

To be frank, didn't you pay her training fee

to keep her?

Weren't you selfish? Weren't you deciding for her?

We are the same.

Working on our own goals.

Do you think everyone is the same as you?

Let me tell you. Not everyone is as selfish as you.

I won't allow Tang Xue to be with you.

I understand Tang Xue's personality very well.

What I did won't affect her dreams.

I did it to let her dad realize that

how wrong you are for her.

Just as her dad believes, as long as you keep playing hockey,

injuries are the Sword of Damocles for you.

Do you understand? A sword that is above your head.

- What's going on? - As soon as it falls, Tang Xue will be implicated.

I am the one who can provide her with

security and a happy future.

Li Yubing, too bad for you.

You insisted on standing in front of my goal.

I didn't keep you two from dating in the past,

but I can separate you.

Why are you so confident?

In Uncle Tang's mind, I'm an accomplished journalism student at MU.

I'll be a writer and my future is bright and secure.

You are just an ice hockey player.

It's combative and risky.

He'd have to worry all the time.

No matter how much she likes you now,

she has to consider her future.

I can wait.

One year, two years, five years.

Let's see who'll have the last laugh.

Li Yubing.

Tang Xue?

How could you be this kind of person?

I worried that you'd feel guilty.

I came to have a meal with you.

Bian Cheng, I'm telling you. Even if there's no Li Yubing, I still won't be with you.

I won't dare to.

Why did you take me outside?

I'm telling you! He needs a good beating.

He and Zhou Ran planned all this.

Zhou Ran told your dad everything.

Zhou Ran?

Excuse me, everyone. You've waited long.

We can continue.

Someone else will host the interview today.

Thank you for participating.

Why?

Student Bian Cheng, do you know what the most important characteristics of a journalist are?

I've left comments on your topics.

I hope you can do it.

[Righteousness]

[Righteousness]

[Zhou Ran]

Did Li Yubing talk to you?

He ruined my interview.

Did someone hear our conversation?

That's not important. I think we don't need to see each other any longer.

I can't help you.

I know it's hard to swallow,

but you won't fall down. Right?

Do you think you know me well?

No need to console me.

Bian Cheng.

Have you given up?

I'll figure it out myself. You can't help me anyway.

You won't be able to get Li Yubing.

Why are you so sure?

You don't like him at all.

You simply want to beat Tang Xue.

You are jealous of her.

Do you really like her?

She's only one of your many goals, isn't she?

Because I like her, she's one of my goals.

When you like someone, don't you want her to be happy?

Between your goal and her happiness,

which one will you choose?
