=Episode 1= (The Fallen Star of Sishui)

Huan'er.

It's time to go.

Coming.

Goodbye, Dahuang.

=Always Home=

(Adapted from an original novel first published on Douban Books)

("Always Home" by Xiao Ge)

Is that the one?

Yes.

That's her.

Yifan!

Mister, stop the car here.

Yifan!

Mister.

Thanks, Mister.

Turn the car around.

The house is just over there.

Alright, no problem.

Yifan!

It's been so many years.

I'll help you get the key.

Let's go.

Okay.

Huan'er.

Do you remember Aunt Lin Yifan?

She used to carry you when you were little.

Say hello.

Hello, Aunt Yifan.

She doesn't remember.

She was so little back then. How could she remember?

This way.

No problem.

I'll finish the paperwork before I get off work.

Thank you.

See you later.

Okay.

Huan'er.

I'm going to the hospital.

Watch over things for me.

Lina, I'll go with you.

Okay, Yifan.

Watch my stuff for me.

Hey...

There's bird poop on your head.

Here.

Use this to wipe it off.

Thanks.

Did you just move in?

I haven't seen you before.

My home is right here.

I guess we're neighbors now.

Thanks.

Nice to meet you.

My name is...

Bye-bye.

(This guy...)

(Why is he so weird?)

(My name is Chen Huan'er.)

(I'm sixteen years old.)

(Before this,)

(I lived in Sishui County, on the far west side of Tianhe.)

(Don't underestimate me just because I come from a small town.)

(I'm fully confident that I can handle)

(this new chapter in my life.)

(After all,)

(when I was a kid,)

(I had my share of big moments.)

(The "Star of Sishui" Award Ceremony) Let's all congratulate Chen Huan'er.

She overcame every challenge, performed outstandingly

in this academic competition

(Certificate) and won the title of "Star of Sishui".

Chen Huan'er,

tell us how you feel.

I...

I'm so excited.

Louder.

I...

I'm so excited.

(Award Ceremony) Excited about what?

Excited to become

the Flower of Sishui.

I was young back then.

But now, I definitely don't trip over my words.

(Tianhe No. 1 Middle School,)

(get ready to welcome the Star of Sishui.)

Students.

Everyone...

Quiet down.

Settle down.

I have an announcement.

Our class

has a new student.

Her name is Chen Huan'er.

Everyone's busy

studying,

so I won't give a long introduction.

Chen Huan'er.

There's an empty seat in the second-to-last row.

You can sit there.

Okay, sir.

You guys,

get to know each other after class.

New girl.

Hello.

Hello.

I'm the class monitor.

Just call me Xinyan.

Where did you transfer from?

Sishui.

Where's Sishui?

Out of town?

Sishui is a county.

Never heard of it.

You're just bad at geography.

It's the county on the far west side.

Class, stand up.

Good morning, sir.

Good morning, students.

Please sit down.

Students,

for this month's exam,

we will only cover up to Required Course 3.

So in this class,

I won't review the previous topics.

Let's get straight

into the trigonometric functions of any angle.

Please open your math textbooks to page 53.

Students,

we've covered these key points, tricky parts and exam topics

in the previous lessons.

(I won the "Flower of Sishui") Today, we'll focus on the x-coordinates.

Stretch them to four times their original length.

The y-coordinates stay the same.

Hey,

why aren't you guys eating in the cafeteria?

The school doesn't have a cafeteria.

Then where can I buy food outside?

You didn't bring lunch?

Let's go buy lunch together.

Isn't that not enough food?

Not for both of us. Let's go.

By the way,

I still don't know your name.

Qi Qi.

Bring me a meat sandwich while you're out.

Get it yourself.

I have training.

Just bring it over when you're done. Thanks.

Jing Xichi.

Our class's sports committee member.

Sports committee?

No wonder he looks so athletic.

Do you two know each other?

No.

You've been so quiet all morning.

I thought you were shy.

What kind of competition is the "Flower of Sishui"?

I saw the note you wrote this morning.

It's just a local academic competition.

Actually, it's called the "Star of Sishui,"

not the "Flower of Sishui."

I heard students from the suburban county areas

are all really smart.

Are students from your area

all academic geniuses?

Where did you hear about that rumor?

I get it.

You top students are all so modest.

To be honest, my grades are a mess.

Can you

help a deskmate out?

No, you've got the wrong idea.

I...

I'm really not that smart.

The Flower of Sishui,

I'm counting on you for tomorrow's exam.

(Welcome to Tianhe No. 1 Middle School!)

(Chen Huan'er ranks 44; Qi Qi ranks 45)

The new girl and her deskmate really are a perfect match.

One ranked dead last, the other second to last.

Look.

Li Tian is in first place again.

(Math Exam Paper)

(Math Exam Paper)

Sorry, Qi Qi.

If you hadn't copied from me, you wouldn't have ended up like this.

Qi Qi.

Sorry.

I accidentally did too well.

If I had scored just a little lower,

our names would have been right next to each other.

Huan'er, Qi Qi, Mr. Sports Committee.

The homeroom teacher wants to see you.

Qi Qi.

What should I even say to you?

If you're going to copy answers,

at least

be a bit more discerning.

Her answers were completely wrong.

Didn't you even notice?

Always trying to be clever.

Chen Huan'er.

This doesn't add up.

Your mom told me

that back in your old school,

your grades were pretty good.

So why is it that now,

you don't even know the basics?

Give me your parent's phone number.

I need to call and ask.

But sir...

And you.

You did well this time.

Keep it up.

Whether our class average improves

depends on you.

Okay.

Don't worry, sir.

From now on,

I won't be ranked last again.

Don't just stand there.

Get to class.

Bye, sir.

Jing Xichi.

Keep it up.

Got it, sir.

(Off to a bad start.)

(I have to go all out now.)

Mom...

I'm sorry.

I totally messed up my exam.

The school might call you.

I'm sorry.

(Not bad.)

(My acting skills are still sharp.)

The Flower of Sishui is back.

Go wash up and eat.

I bought your favorite salt-baked chicken.

Oh no.

What if I can't cry?

Mom...

I'm sorry.

I failed the exam.

If you can't cry, don't force it.

Don't waste water.

Your teacher called.

Come and eat.

I didn't cry.

Nope.

Good, then.

Sit down and eat.

Here.

It's not a big deal, right?

School is tough.

Having classmates

who are better than you is a good thing.

The Flower of Sishui

can't just wither so easily.

Here, eat more.

I'm a wilted flower now.

What wilted flower?

You're still a budding blossom.

Alright, enough drama.

Hurry up and eat.

Also,

next time you don't do well, don't waste water.

Here, have some vegetables.

Eat more veggies.

Hurry up.

Huan'er.

Quick.

Mom, where are we going?

To Aunt Yifan's house.

She called and invited us over.

By the way,

her son goes to Tianhe Middle School too.

Same age as you.

We'll take this chance to get some study tips.

Hurry up and eat.

Come on, hurry up.

This kid...

Coming.

Yifan!

Come on in, sweetie.

What do you have there?

You shouldn't have.

No need to be so formal.

Come on.

Have a seat.

It's getting late, where's Liqiang?

He's in a meeting.

The Fire Department is always busy.

Son,

come out.

Aunt Lina is here.

Xichi, right?

Hello, Ma'am.

You've grown up.

(Why is it him again?)

Looking sharp!

Today, I brought Huan'er over...

(I'm speechless.)

to visit.

You two must be in the same school.

Why are you standing? Sit down.

Here, have a drink.

Look,

he's back from his meeting.

Speak of the devil.

Jing Xichi!

How many times have I told you?

Stop leaving your stinky shoes everywhere.

We have guests. How embarrassing.

Liqiang.

Lina is here.

Come, Huan'er.

Say hello.

Hello, sir.

Is she your daughter?

I can hardly

recognize her now.

She was so young back then.

Hadn't even started primary school yet.

So many years have passed.

Sit down.

Sit, sit.

Now,

our kids

are finally together.

That's right.

But if that's the case,

don't let our rascal corrupt her.

What nonsense are you talking about?

Like Lina just said,

kids need encouragement.

Liqiang, you can't talk like that.

They're all good kids.

Today,

I brought Huan'er here

to learn from Xichi.

Since school just started,

she's having a little trouble keeping up.

You're asking the wrong person.

When it comes to studying, my son...

He's good at sports.

Xichi, hurry up.

Go to the kitchen and wash the fruit

that Aunt Lina brought us.

Alright.

Huan'er,

be a good girl and go help him.

I suppose you're staying here for good?

That's right.

We're finally together now.

It's good to have someone

living in the same complex

to rely on.

The knife's over there.

You cut it.

Don't forget to wash it first.

Huan'er.

Your eyes look a little swollen.

Don't tell me

you cried because you didn't do well on the exam?

I was just...

No need to explain.

It's fine.

Nothing to be ashamed of.

It's just that there's no need to cry over a test.

Guess how I did on the senior middle school

entrance exam?

Dead last?

Good guess.

So,

just so you know,

I consistently scored in the middle to upper range in junior middle school.

You're already doing great.

You and Qi Qi seem pretty close.

Why are you asking?

You acted like you didn't want to know me at school.

That was because you acted like you didn't want to know me.

Come on, answer me.

Are you close with her?

Yes.

Stop eating.

There won't be any left for our parents.

Mind your own business.

Jing Xichi!

Stop bullying her.

Act like a man, will you?

I didn't, Dad.

I was just having a discussion with Huan'er.

Starting tomorrow,

she can walk to school with me and Song Cong.

It's safer.

That's wonderful.

The apples are ready.

I heard

that Song's kid is a top student.

Of course.

Let me tell you, he's exactly like his father.

Always ranked first in every exam.

Do you think academic success is genetic?

I really think so.

It's all in the genes.

Aunt Lina,

how about I ask Song Cong

to help tutor Huan'er?

That would be great.

If you need any help, just let me know.

No need to be polite.

Now that's more like a real man.

I'm running late.

Mom, I'm off to school.

Everyone's here today.

Let me introduce you.

This here

is Chen Huan'er,

Aunt Lina's daughter.

She's under my care.

She'll be walking to school with us from now on.

Hello.

Hello.

She's the one who helped you get out of last place?

Did you all have breakfast?

These are wild vegetable dumplings from Sishui.

Want to try one?

Sure.

What kind of vegetable is this? It tastes weird.

My grandpa grew these himself.

If you don't like it, give it back.

I never said it.

Give it back.

It's pretty good. Let's go.

We're running late.

If you don't like it, just leave it here.

It's fine.

Leave it...

It's really good.

Song Cong,

when you have time, help tutor her a bit.

You should join too.

I'll think about it.

Alright.

I'll find some time

to list out this semester's key topics.

Then we can all study together.

Well then, thank you, Mr. Song.

What are you standing there for?

Hurry up and thank our teacher.

If you don't, he might charge you.

Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Song.

No problem.

Isn't my little brother obedient?

Who's your little brother?

Chen Huan'er!

Qi Qi.

Why are you coming from that way?

I thought you lived in the new district.

Did you move?

You guys...

The three of us live in the same residential compound.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

I'm Qi Qi.

Huan'er is my deskmate.

I went to No. 3 Middle School too.

I knew about you back then.

I remember your essay

was even selected as an exemplary piece, right?

You guys went to the same junior high school?

Why do you act like strangers?

There were hundreds of students in our grade.

You think it's like Sishui, a county?

We had hundreds of students in Sishui too.

Oh wow, impressive.

Did you know every single person in your grade?

Then why do you expect them to know each other?

Alright, enough.

Can you stop teasing her?

You want to speak up for her?

If so, then join us commoners

in the regular class.

Not happening.

My grades aren't bad enough.

By the way,

my dad just sent these from abroad.

I thought I'd share them with my classmates. Here.

Try one.

Are those

Danish butter cookies?

Delicious.

Song Cong, have one too.

I've had them before.

I'm heading off now.

Why is he walking that way?

Didn't you hear me?

He's not an ordinary student.

He's in the international program.

His classes are in another building.

Let's hurry. The homeroom teacher is giving a public lecture.

We mustn't be late.

Let's go.

No way.

Mr. Xu is giving a public lecture again?

Now I'll never get the chance

to take a nap.

And that little glasses guy

is going to try to stand out again.

For sure,

he's going to be like, "Sir! Sir!"

So annoying.

What do you mean?

You'll find out later.

Alright, class.

Turn to page 51.

Sir, I know this one! I know the answer, sir!

Sir...

I can do this one!

Why don't we give other students a chance?

Chen Huan'er.

Explain how to solve this problem.

Since A equals 4,

B equals 3, and C equals 2,

the largest angle is A.

According to the cosine rule, we can deduce that

cosine A equals B...

What are you laughing at?

What's so funny?

Math exams don't test oral skills.

Chen Huan'er, continue.

Equals...

B squared plus C squared,

minus A squared, divided by 2AB.

Equals negative one-fourth.

So...

So the answer is D.

Uncle,

where are my instant noodles?

I have training later.

Thanks, Uncle.

No problem.

Didn't we say we'd study together?

I only said I'd consider it.

Stop considering.

You agreed to help Chen Huan'er.

Hurry up and go study. Come on.

No, I have training later.

I have things to do.

You help her first, okay?

She's struggling with her studies.

Help her out. Just go.

Don't come back, just go.

Help her out, alright?

Fine, carry on.

She really needs help.

Go and tutor her.

Daniel Lin was waiting at the airport.

And her cousin, Liu Qian,

went on a trip to Canada

to visit their cousins.

A lot of Chinese families...

Families...

Celeb...

Chen Huan'er.

Celebrate...

Celebrate the New Year.

Did you hear?

Some country bumpkin in the regular class

pronounced "cosine" as "kao sai" during the public lecture.

Who?

Someone named Chen Huan'er.

"Kao sai", that's hilarious.

Celebrate...

Celebrate...

Celebrate...

A lot of Chinese

celebrate the New Year

together.

Celeb...

What are you doing?

I'm listening to a recording.

Are you coming up?

Let's go.

I'll get your shoes.

Thanks.

Have a seat.

Where's Jing Xichi?

Why isn't he here yet?

Xichi said we'd study together so you wouldn't feel awkward.

He's focused on training.

He's not coming to study.

Just sit tight for a bit.

Here, this tape is for you.

It should help you a little.

Thanks.

(New Concept English 3)

It seems everyone here is so good at English.

We had a head start, that's all.

Practice more,

and you'll catch up in no time.

Let's start with the questions.

Okay.

Try solving this question first.

Thanks.

This problem works like this.

Look at this triangle.

In triangle ABD,

we use the cosine rule to get...

(New Concept English 3)

I'll write it down for you.

Okay.

Who hasn't turned in their math homework yet?

Hand it in now.

(Tianhe No. 1 Middle School - International Class - Song Cong)

Isn't this Song Cong's notebook?

I must've taken the wrong one.

I need to get it back to him.

Xiaoyu, here you go.

Thanks.

Song Cong.

Mr. Fu.

Can I skip this competition?

Skip it?

Why?

I've been really busy with schoolwork lately.

Song Cong, stop trying to fool me.

I know you too well.

For an international competition like this,

whether it's English

or math,

besides you,

who else do you think I can send?

Plus, the competitors in this contest are all top-tier.

Don't take it lightly.

Winning first place isn't guaranteed.

Excuse me,

is Song Cong in your class?

(Why are the international class students so weird?)

Excuse me, is Song Cong here?

No idea.

Huan'er.

There you are.

Sorry,

I accidentally took your notebook.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

It's fine.

Oh right, today...

Song Cong,

I heard from Mr. Fu that you don't

want to participate in the math competition.

Why?

I just don't want to.

If you don't want to join,

then give me your spot.

What were you about to say?

I wanted to say that I have a test after school today.

I might be half an hour late.

You and Jing Xichi should go home without me.

It's fine.

We'll wait for you.

How about this?

I'll hand in my paper early,

you guys wait for me at the back gate.

You can do that?

Alright then.

Good.

Got some fresh gossip about Ms. Kao Sai from Class 5.

Do you want to hear it?

Spill it.

She may look all innocent,

but she's not that simple.

How so?

She went to the international class this morning

to return Song Cong's notebook.

For real?

Why would I lie?

I think she went there on purpose,

just to get noticed.

So people would think

there's something going on between them.

She's only been here a few days,

and she's already hanging out with Qi Qi.

Now she's cozying up to Song Cong too.

She's definitely not that simple.

One hand grabs the smart ones,

and the other grabs the rich ones.

Who?

Class 5's social butterfly,

Ms. Kao Sai.

The new girl in Class 5?

Doesn't stand out at all,

but turns out she's a socialite?

That's why she's impressive.

No wonder the area outside the bathroom

smells worse than inside.

Turns out it's because some people have filthy mouths.

What do you mean?

Who are you talking about?

I'm talking about you Class 6 guys.

Not everyone is

as nasty

as you lot.

Jing Xichi.

Stop looking for trouble here.

I am looking for trouble.

What about it?

Chen Huan'er is my friend.

Next time you gossip behind her back,

think twice.

Why are you acting so arrogant?

Try touching me again.

Jing Xichi.

Is this really necessary?

We were just casually talking.

Qin Liang.

Keep your classmates' mouths in check.

You should spend more time practicing

instead of getting dominated by me on the soccer field,

then trying to act tough at school.

Forget it, Qin Liang.

Let's not lower ourselves to Class 5's level.

Let's go.

Yeah.

You heard everything just now,

didn't you?

You're not crying in the bathroom, are you?

If you had arrived a second later,

I would've already thrown hands.

Impressive.

Don't believe me?

My dad is a martial arts coach.

Impressive.

For real.

I'm sorry

for the wait.

I came right after handing in my paper.

We've been waiting forever.

You had better make up for it,

especially to Huan'er.

What's wrong?

I'm fine.

It's all because of you.

You must be the last person to leave the school.

What? All my classmates are still here.

What are they doing?

Comparing answers.

You guys are already checking answers?

Checking my answers.

So arrogant.

You guys are such good friends.

How come one of you is a top student and the other a slacker?

Didn't Darwin say?

We should respect species diversity.

Darwin never said that.

I'm done joking with you.

I'm off to training.

You two be careful.

Did the tape I gave you

help at all?

Yeah.

Thanks.

How are you adjusting to Tianhe?

Not bad.

Just now Xichi said I need to make amends.

Did I really keep you waiting too long?

No.

Don't listen to his nonsense.

Let's continue tutoring after dinner.

No need for now.

I don't want to trouble you.

I'll head home now.

I'm home.

(I have to work overtime today.)

(I've arranged with Aunt Hao.)

(You can have dinner at her place.)

(Let me know when you're home.)

Hello? Dad?

What's the matter?

Yes, I've had my dinner.

Don't worry.

Everything is going well here.

My classmates?

They're all pretty nice to me.

Alright, let's stop here for now. I need to do my homework.

Bye.

♪The rain has soaked my mind♪

Song Cong.

Ask her to come over for dinner.

What's the matter?

Why are you calling me?

Song Cong

told me you seemed

a little depressed after school.

So I thought I'd call and check

to make sure you're okay.

Yeah.

Right now, I'm standing on top of the hospital building.

Looking down, it's pretty spacious.

The height is just right.

It's perfect

for jumping off.

Don't jump off yet.

I need to let my dad and the others know,

so they can prepare for the rescue.

I'm fine, really.

Don't worry.

I know you're fine.

But look at you, after just a few laps,

you're already this exhausted.

Your physical fitness is seriously lacking.

What are you doing here?

What am I doing here?

Are you kidding?

This is my turf.

I've just finished my practice.

Anyway, about what happened today...

Thanks.

You're my little brother.

Who else would I look out for?

Fine, I owe you one, then.

Have you eaten?

I have.

I ate a ton.

I was just having my post-meal run.

No, you haven't.

Fine.

I'm feeling generous today.

I'll take you somewhere nice.

Where?

Just follow me, you'll see.

If you don't tell me, I'm not going.

Come with me, and I'll tell you.
