Go to sleep.
Alright.
Where's Cheng Rui?
Why isn't he back yet?
Feichi.
Where is he?
Well
After the evening study,
he got a phone call
and rushed out.
He should be back soon.
Alright.
Where did Zheng Sipeng go?
Sir, he took sick leave.
What should we do?
Surprise dorm check.
Li Wu, quick.
Turn off the desk lamp!
What about Cheng Rui?
His phone was confiscated
when school started.
Last week, he sneaked into the office
to steal that sports card,
and the teacher caught him red-handed.
If he gets caught again,
Mr. Qi will surely expel him directly.
Hurry. Stuff the pillow into his quilt.
Quick.
Stuff his quilt.
Stuff his pillow.
Will this really fool them?
What else can we do?
This
Try it as a last resort.
I've passed a check like this before.
Hurry.
Stuff it.
It's so late. Why aren't you sleeping?
Aren't you having class tomorrow?
Whose bed is this? Where is the person?
Hello, Sir.
Li Wu's.
Li Wu's bed.
Li Wu from Class 3?
(Absent for the night)
Who knows where he went?
Sir, he went home.
He said it's cold, and went home
to get a thicker quilt.
He'll be back
tomorrow morning.
Yeah.
Where was he over the weekend?
Now he says it's cold?
Alright.
Hurry and sleep.
You have class tomorrow.
Okay, Sir.
Goodbye, Sir.
That scared me.
Got goosebumps all over.
Li Wu.
Not bad.
Quite righteous.
If Cheng Rui knew
what you did today,
he'd be moved to tears
and pledge himself to you.
Good for you, Li Wu.
What were you thinking?
I was so scared that I froze.
Didn't you guys say
if he got caught again,
he'd be expelled?
Yeah.
Let's sleep.
Go to sleep.
All right.
(Mr. Qi)
(Mr. Qi)
Hello, Mr. Qi.
Sorry.
I didn't hear the phone.
Is something wrong?
Cen.
Li Wu didn't return to school all night.
Didn't come back all night?
Mr. Qi, sorry
for making you worry.
You're here.
Where did you go last night?
I went home.
When is it?
Right after class.
You worked overtime last night.
When I fell asleep,
you weren't home yet.
This morning,
I came before you woke up.
Mr. Qi,
can I talk to Li Wu alone?
Sure.
Come out for a moment.
Where did you go last night?
Are you planning to just
stay silent?
I was in the dorm the whole time.
Then, just now, the teacher asked you.
Why you said you went home?
I covered for my roommate.
Covered for him?
Why?
It was a special situation.
Special situation?
So just now,
you wanted me to cover your lie?
Why would you think I would help you?
I don't know
Li Wu.
I've been a student too.
I know what you're thinking.
You might feel
that you're being loyal,
but I can't let you act recklessly.
You came to Yi City,
and your top priority is studying.
If you feel
losing this opportunity to study
doesn't matter,
then I have nothing to say.
I can help you cover a lie,
but I can't take the college exam
for you.
Sorry.
Why are you laughing?
Nothing.
What class is this?
English.
Alright, enough.
Go back to class.
Okay.
You mean
Li Wu was covering for his roommate?
Mr. Qi.
I believe what Li Wu said.
He has nowhere else to go
besides school and home.
But I'm still a bit worried.
He just came from the mountains,
and a lot of things
are new to him,
even tempting.
So his surroundings
and the behavior of the people he meets
could have a big influence on him.
Mr. Qi,
you know Li Wu's situation too.
The NCEE is very important for him.
I don't want other things to affect him.
So you mean
you want to change Li Wu's dorm?
I'm not sure either.
After all,
I'm not his real parent.
Cen.
I understand your concerns.
I know these kids
very well.
Although a few are a bit naughty,
at heart, they are all good students.
Their grades are good too.
Li Wu is very sensible.
He is goal-oriented.
I believe
he won't be easily
influenced by the environment.
Don't worry too much.
In my experience,
students nowadays
all have personality.
They have their own ideas,
and their own plans.
Excessive restriction
is not necessarily
good for them.
Of course,
I will carefully look into
the situations you worry about.
Don't worry.
I will pay extra attention to Li Wu.
Okay, thank you, Mr. Qi.
Then I won't disturb you.
Let's communicate if anything comes up.
Alright.
Goodbye, Mr. Qi.
Okay, goodbye.
Take care.
Cheng Rui.
Cheng Rui.
Cheng Rui.
What's up?
It's Mr. Qi.
Come out with me for a moment.
What to do?
Why didn't you remind me earlier?
I called you several times.
I hope that from today,
you take responsibility for yourself.
What's wrong? What happened?
Why is the teacher scolding you?
Is it because of last night?
No.
Isn't that all in the past?
How did he know?
Yeah.
So it wasn't you two, right?
Of course not.
How could we?
Yeah.
Then it's him.
What are you doing?
I even considered you a brother,
thought you were loyal
and felt sorry for you,
but you
turned around and sold me out.
I didn't.
Your family wants to change your dorm.
You still deny it?
Li Wu, if you're upset with me,
you can say it directly.
No need to do shady stuff
behind my back.
Cheng Rui.
- Cheng Rui.
- Cheng Rui.
Cheng Rui.
Don't touch me.
Cheng Rui.
Cheng Rui.
What are you doing?
Is there some misunderstanding?
Yeah.
What did Mr. Qi say?
What misunderstanding could there be?
If he didn't want to help,
he could refuse.
Did I beg him?
I didn't want
to involve you guys at first.
No.
Cheng Rui.
Can you explain clearly?
What's there to say?
So eager to clear yourself
of the blame you took yesterday,
pretending to be the good guy, huh?
Thanks to you,
now I'm the one who dares
to act but not take responsibility,
and corrupts good students.
Thanks.
Cheng Rui.
Your dad is here. He's downstairs.
He wants you to go down quickly.
Wait
Let's go.
Oh, no
Cheng Rui!
You useless kid!
This
Are you satisfied now?
This
Let's go.
Hey, Li Wu.
Finished your exams?
I'm going to school to pick you up now.
Wait for me at the school gate.
Okay.
Why so quiet?
How was the exam?
It was okay.
Are you feeling unwell?
Li Wu?
No.
I ordered takeout.
Go read your book.
I'm not hungry.
You tell me.
Did I upset you today?
Speak.
Did you tell Mr. Qi
to change my dorm?
Yes.
Why?
Is there a problem with me
changing your dorm?
Why couldn't you just tell me?
I took the fall voluntarily.
It wasn't them forcing me.
You did it willingly?
Can breaking the rules
ever be voluntary?
And now you've learned to lie.
Li Wu,
you weren't like this before.
You've been here less than a semester,
and you've changed so much.
Tell me.
You weren't influenced by them?
They didn't influence me.
They are my friends.
What kind of messy friends are those?
They'll only affect your studies.
Weren't you the one who told me
to make friends and fit in?
So you just ran away from home?
Just thinking about being
with him in the same room
makes me angry.
Then why didn't you kick him out?
You're the homeowner, right?
How could I?
He has no family.
Where could he go?
You're all talk but soft-hearted.
Alright, stop mentioning him.
Talking about him gives me a headache.
I'm thirsty. I want water.
What water?
This one.
Fine.
You just came out like this.
What if your brother looks for you?
He won't look for me.
(Brother)
He called.
Don't answer.
Really not answering?
Your brother's been worrying about you.
Can't focus.
What about his studies?
Just like I told you,
wouldn't you be mad?
I'm not mad.
Whatever the handsome guy says,
I won't be mad.
(Brother)
Answer?
Ignore him.
Don't answer.
(Brother)
So persistent.
If he likes, let him call.
(Brother)
He really has perseverance.
Have you noticed?
Every call
is one minute apart.
Does he have OCD?
This is your old phone.
I gave it to Li Wu.
He isn't stupid.
He knew to call your friend.
Answer?
(Chun Chang: Cen Jin's here with me.)
(Don't worry.)
(Go rest early.)
(She's going back tomorrow.)
(I will study hard,)
(and won't let you worry again.)
Study hard?
I'll see how well you can study
to what extent.
Move forward.
Hurry.
Go forward.
That way.
Stand properly.
Don't bump into me.
Why bump into me?
Who bumped into you?
Why are you shouting?
Don't crowd here.
Still noisy?
The class bell rang ages ago!
Didn't you hear?
How's your line
organized?
Stand properly!
The four boys in the back.
Could you work a bit,
go to the equipment room
and bring out the volleyballs?
One meter apart. Left and right.
Stand properly, and line up.
Align front and back.
Come.
Joint warm-up, ready, go!
One, two, three, four.
Sorry about that.
My hand slipped.
You're way off.
Watch me.
The volleyball doesn't feel right.
Next time, we'll just use a basketball.
With your build,
you should use a shot put.
First time finding volleyball
so fun, right?
There's even more fun to come.
What are you trying to do?
What's the problem?
Want to fight?
What are you guys doing?
Rocket Class's Tao Wanwen.
Mr. Qi's proud disciple.
Let's go.
Wipe your hands.
No need.
You are
You know Cheng Rui, right?
You're ostracized
because of me.
But don't worry,
I'll figure out a way to help you.
No need.
Thanks.
This was a special case.
I won't ask for leave again.
Indeed, no more leave.
Monthly exams are coming soon.
You need to focus,
no distractions.
Okay, don't worry.
I'll work twice as hard for the exams.
Go back to class.
Okay.
Bye, Mr. Qi.
Bye.
Wen.
Come with me.
Where to?
About you not coming home at night,
why didn't you explain it clearly
to your dad and Mr. Qi?
That's your personal matter.
I shouldn't tell others.
Alright, I got it.
I also explained to the teacher.
What are you doing?
If so, I was getting scolded
for nothing.
Who told you to act on your own that day
and help me?
How's your college application going?
No way.
My parents gathered
relatives and friends
at home every day.
Brainwashing me in shifts.
If Mr. Qi hadn't called
to tell them if I didn't come back,
it would affect my NCEE,
I couldn't even come back.
Then
Don't worry about it.
I'll figure it out myself.
Alright.
Stop frowning.
Day after day,
it's upsetting to watch.
You're not upset?
You're becoming a bully.
How did you know?
I didn't bully him.
I just wanted to vent.
He was obviously hypocritical.
Yes.
Later, it got a bit out of hand.
But Fatty Zhang and the others
also defended me.
At this moment,
I can't stand up and blame them.
That would be ungrateful.
What do you mean by ungrateful?
Fatty Zhang
is defending you
or venting his own anger?
Can you tell?
Li Wu took the fall for you,
and didn't tell the teacher
about your matter.
What more do you want from him?
He didn't tell the teacher,
but he told his parents.
Isn't that the same thing?
Not the same.
He has no parents.
He has no parents?
Li Wu's parents and grandfather
have all passed away.
He told his sister about your matter,
but she's not his real sister.
She's the daughter of his benefactor.
That kind of relationship,
how could you expect him to lie?
Who did you hear this from?
Thanks to you,
Mr. Qi just told me.
I didn't know.
Now you know.
Can you stop now?
Fatty Zhang
is bullying Li Wu
under the guise of defending you.
If the teacher asks,
he'll just say you led it.
He won't lose at all.
You're like a fool,
being used as a pawn.
I didn't intend to make such a big deal.
Then what should I do now?
Go apologize to Li Wu.
Apologize?
No way
That's too embarrassing.
Fine.
Then go make friends with your pride.
Big ego.
Wait for me.
Help me think.
Is there
a more tactful way?
Bye, Jin.
Bye.
Cen Jin.
Sit.
How is it?
After working at the company
for a while,
are you used to it?
Pretty good.
Pretty good?
You jumped straight into the work,
and you must be exhausted.
Free on Friday?
If you don't mind,
let's have a welcome dinner.
Friday, huh?
Why?
Any other plans?
No.
Don't mind if I pay?
Well, I really care about this.
Let me take this chance.
Thanks, boss.
But
This meal isn't just for free.
Are you familiar with Bei'ao Motors?
I've worked with them before.
They're launching a new model.
Many ad companies
are competing.
I want you to try.
Can you do it?
Yes. I have contacts.
I'll reach out.
Okay.
I'll send you the materials.
Any questions,
contact me anytime.
Okay.
Thanks, boss.
Class dismissed.
Rise.
- Bye, teacher.
- Bye, teacher.
Bye, students.
Let's go.
Okay.
Should we
go to the library tomorrow to study?
I don't want to stay home.
My parents are too naggy.
Give me a break.
It's the weekend.
I just want to go home and sleep.
Here.
Give me the bag.
Get in the car.
(Yi City Yingcai High School)
Hello.
(Friday, picking up Li Wu from school.)
Jin.
You're here.
This way.
Let's go.
Everyone's waiting for you.
Jin is here.
You're late.
Sorry, I'm late.
Jin, you look so pretty.
Jin.
Thank you.
(Yi City Yingcai High School)
Hey, waiting for someone?
We're closing.
Hey, what's wrong?
We're closing.
Sorry.
Manager, your tea.
Okay, thanks.
Here, Miss.
Your tea.
Thanks.
A few days ago,
I ran into Mr. Wu and found out
you had left Yiwen Creative Dream.
Yes.
I'm at AusStar now.
AusStar?
I'm not very familiar.
What projects have you done?
Our company is relatively new,
but we've already worked
with quite a few well-known brands.
Our business capability
has a good reputation in the industry.
The team is young,
but full of energy
and a spirit of exploration.
Of course.
I trust your judgment.
And also trust the company
you chose to develop with
won't be bad.
But since you came to me,
I won't hide it from you.
Bei'ao Motors
only chooses companies
from its supplier pool
to cooperate with.
AusStar isn't in it.
And now competing
for this project
are Yiwen Creative Dream
and several other
top companies in the industry.
With your company's current strength,
I guess even passing
the qualification review
will be hard.
AusStar wasn't
in Bei'ao Motors's supplier pool,
which is indeed our mistake.
But we're ready
to do our best to compete.
The application materials
were submitted this morning.
It meets Bei'ao Motors's
requirements.
Yiwen Creative Dream
is, of course, excellent,
but AusStar has its own advantages.
Our creativity,
execution,
and cost-effectiveness
are the best among these companies.
These are
some project materials from our company.
You can take a look.
Okay.
If we
can take on this project,
AusStar will gain more recognition
in the industry.
You can also get
a good project
with extremely high cost-effectiveness.
So I hope Mr. Chen
will consider,
giving us
a chance to pitch.
As planned,
our new product launches next month.
We must finalize the marketing team.
So, the time for you
to prepare your proposal
is probably only two weeks.
Can you manage?
Two weeks is fine.
Okay.
Then, quickly complete the follow-up
supplier approval documents.
I'll give you
a chance to participate in the pitch.
Of course.
Who gets chosen in the end
will still depend on strength.
Thanks, Mr. Chen.
(Bei'ao Motors)
Hello, are you Li Wu's parent?
(Clinic)
Hello, are you Li Wu's parent?
Yes.
How is he?
Fever.
Thirty-nine degrees.
He's been unwell
for a couple of days.
Medication didn't help.
Better take him
to the hospital for IV fluids.
Okay.
Thanks.
You're welcome. It's my duty.
(Treatment Room)
Let's go.
Just grabbed this from your dorm.
Put it on and come with me
to see the doctor.
Sorry, everyone's in line.
Why are you cutting in line?
Go to the back.
Line up.
Just go.
What are you doing?
I
was afraid he'd bully you.
Better now?
Sit back.
Hey, Ted.
Sorry. I'm in a bit of a hurry.
Can I request half a day off?
My younger brother is sick.
I'm accompanying him in the hospital.
Thanks.
Haven't you
eaten anything today?
Haven't eaten, right?
I
don't really feel like eating.
I'll go buy something to eat.
(Sodium Chloride Injection)
Okay. Gotta go.
(Brother)
(Sorry.)
(It's okay.)
Hello.
Your meal is ready.
Okay.
I bought congee,
shredded chicken noodles and wontons.
Too much.
Eat as much as you can.
Good nutrition helps faster recovery.
So
You.
Aren't you mad at me anymore?
I already replied to you
on WeChat, didn't I?
Eat quickly.
What do you want?
I'll just eat this.
I'll do it.
Done.
Here.
Thanks.
Delicious.

Are you satisfied now?
This
Let's go.
Hey, Li Wu.
Finished your exams?
I'm going to school to pick you up now.
Wait for me at the school gate.
Okay.
Why so quiet?
How was the exam?
It was okay.
Are you feeling unwell?
Li Wu?
No.
I ordered takeout.
Go read your book.
I'm not hungry.
You tell me.
Did I upset you today?
Speak.
Did you tell Mr. Qi
to change my dorm?
Yes.
Why?
Is there a problem with me
changing your dorm?
Why couldn't you just tell me?
I took the fall voluntarily.
It wasn't them forcing me.
You did it willingly?
Can breaking the rules
ever be voluntary?
And now you've learned to lie.
Li Wu,
you weren't like this before.
You've been here less than a semester,
and you've changed so much.
Tell me.
You weren't influenced by them?
They didn't influence me.
They are my friends.
What kind of messy friends are those?
They'll only affect your studies.
Weren't you the one who told me
to make friends and fit in?
So you just ran away from home?
Just thinking about being
with him in the same room
makes me angry.
Then why didn't you kick him out?
You're the homeowner, right?
How could I?
He has no family.
Where could he go?
You're all talk but soft-hearted.
Alright, stop mentioning him.
Talking about him gives me a headache.
I'm thirsty. I want water.
What water?
This one.
Fine.
You just came out like this.
What if your brother looks for you?
He won't look for me.
(Brother)
He called.
Don't answer.
Really not answering?
Your brother's been worrying about you.
Can't focus.
What about his studies?
Just like I told you,
wouldn't you be mad?
I'm not mad.
Whatever the handsome guy says,
I won't be mad.
(Brother)
Answer?
Ignore him.
Don't answer.
(Brother)
So persistent.
If he likes, let him call.
(Brother)
He really has perseverance.
Have you noticed?
Every call
is one minute apart.
Does he have OCD?
This is your old phone.
I gave it to Li Wu.
He isn't stupid.
He knew to call your friend.
Answer?
(Chun Chang: Cen Jin's here with me.)
(Don't worry.)
(Go rest early.)
(She's going back tomorrow.)
(I will study hard,)
(and won't let you worry again.)
Study hard?
I'll see how well you can study
to what extent.
Move forward.
Hurry.
Go forward.
That way.
Stand properly.
Don't bump into me.
Why bump into me?
Who bumped into you?
Why are you shouting?
Don't crowd here.
Still noisy?
The class bell rang ages ago!
Didn't you hear?
How's your line
organized?
Stand properly!
The four boys in the back.
Could you work a bit,
go to the equipment room
and bring out the volleyballs?
One meter apart. Left and right.
Stand properly, and line up.
Align front and back.
Come.
Joint warm-up, ready, go!
One, two, three, four.
Sorry about that.
My hand slipped.
You're way off.
Watch me.
The volleyball doesn't feel right.
Next time, we'll just use a basketball.
With your build,
you should use a shot put.
First time finding volleyball
so fun, right?
There's even more fun to come.
What are you trying to do?
What's the problem?
Want to fight?
What are you guys doing?
Rocket Class's Tao Wanwen.
Mr. Qi's proud disciple.
Let's go.
Wipe your hands.
No need.
You are
You know Cheng Rui, right?
You're ostracized
because of me.
But don't worry,
I'll figure out a way to help you.
No need.
Thanks.
This was a special case.
I won't ask for leave again.
Indeed, no more leave.
Monthly exams are coming soon.
You need to focus,
no distractions.
Okay, don't worry.
I'll work twice as hard for the exams.
Go back to class.
Okay.
Bye, Mr. Qi.
Bye.
Wen.
Come with me.
Where to?
About you not coming home at night,
why didn't you explain it clearly
to your dad and Mr. Qi?
That's your personal matter.
I shouldn't tell others.
Alright, I got it.
I also explained to the teacher.
What are you doing?
If so, I was getting scolded
for nothing.
Who told you to act on your own that day
and help me?
How's your college application going?
No way.
My parents gathered
relatives and friends
at home every day.
Brainwashing me in shifts.
If Mr. Qi hadn't called
to tell them if I didn't come back,
it would affect my NCEE,
I couldn't even come back.
Then
Don't worry about it.
I'll figure it out myself.
Alright.
Stop frowning.
Day after day,
it's upsetting to watch.
You're not upset?
You're becoming a bully.
How did you know?
I didn't bully him.
I just wanted to vent.
He was obviously hypocritical.
Yes.
Later, it got a bit out of hand.
But Fatty Zhang and the others
also defended me.
At this moment,
I can't stand up and blame them.
That would be ungrateful.
What do you mean by ungrateful?
Fatty Zhang
is defending you
or venting his own anger?
Can you tell?
Li Wu took the fall for you,
and didn't tell the teacher
about your matter.
What more do you want from him?
He didn't tell the teacher,
but he told his parents.
Isn't that the same thing?
Not the same.
He has no parents.
He has no parents?
Li Wu's parents and grandfather
have all passed away.
He told his sister about your matter,
but she's not his real sister.
She's the daughter of his benefactor.
That kind of relationship,
how could you expect him to lie?
Who did you hear this from?
Thanks to you,
Mr. Qi just told me.
I didn't know.
Now you know.
Can you stop now?
Fatty Zhang
is bullying Li Wu
under the guise of defending you.
If the teacher asks,
he'll just say you led it.
He won't lose at all.
You're like a fool,
being used as a pawn.
I didn't intend to make such a big deal.
Then what should I do now?
Go apologize to Li Wu.
Apologize?
No way
That's too embarrassing.
Fine.
Then go make friends with your pride.
Big ego.
Wait for me.
Help me think.
Is there
a more tactful way?
Bye, Jin.
Bye.
Cen Jin.
Sit.
How is it?
After working at the company
for a while,
are you used to it?
Pretty good.
Pretty good?
You jumped straight into the work,
and you must be exhausted.
Free on Friday?
If you don't mind,
let's have a welcome dinner.
Friday, huh?
Why?
Any other plans?
No.
Don't mind if I pay?
Well, I really care about this.
Let me take this chance.
Thanks, boss.
But
This meal isn't just for free.
Are you familiar with Bei'ao Motors?
I've worked with them before.
They're launching a new model.
Many ad companies
are competing.
I want you to try.
Can you do it?
Yes. I have contacts.
I'll reach out.
Okay.
I'll send you the materials.
Any questions,
contact me anytime.
Okay.
Thanks, boss.
Class dismissed.
Rise.
- Bye, teacher.
- Bye, teacher.
Bye, students.
Let's go.
Okay.
Should we
go to the library tomorrow to study?
I don't want to stay home.
My parents are too naggy.
Give me a break.
It's the weekend.
I just want to go home and sleep.
Here.
Give me the bag.
Get in the car.
(Yi City Yingcai High School)
Hello.
(Friday, picking up Li Wu from school.)
Jin.
You're here.
This way.
Let's go.
Everyone's waiting for you.
Jin is here.
You're late.
Sorry, I'm late.
Jin, you look so pretty.
Jin.
Thank you.
(Yi City Yingcai High School)
Hey, waiting for someone?
We're closing.
Hey, what's wrong?
We're closing.
Sorry.
Manager, your tea.
Okay, thanks.
Here, Miss.
Your tea.
Thanks.
A few days ago,
I ran into Mr. Wu and found out
you had left Yiwen Creative Dream.
Yes.
I'm at AusStar now.
AusStar?
I'm not very familiar.
What projects have you done?
Our company is relatively new,
but we've already worked
with quite a few well-known brands.
Our business capability
has a good reputation in the industry.
The team is young,
but full of energy
and a spirit of exploration.
Of course.
I trust your judgment.
And also trust the company
you chose to develop with
won't be bad.
But since you came to me,
I won't hide it from you.
Bei'ao Motors
only chooses companies
from its supplier pool
to cooperate with.
AusStar isn't in it.
And now competing
for this project
are Yiwen Creative Dream
and several other
top companies in the industry.
With your company's current strength,
I guess even passing
the qualification review
will be hard.
AusStar wasn't
in Bei'ao Motors's supplier pool,
which is indeed our mistake.
But we're ready
to do our best to compete.
The application materials
were submitted this morning.
It meets Bei'ao Motors's
requirements.
Yiwen Creative Dream
is, of course, excellent,
but AusStar has its own advantages.
Our creativity,
execution,
and cost-effectiveness
are the best among these companies.
These are
some project materials from our company.
You can take a look.
Okay.
If we
can take on this project,
AusStar will gain more recognition
in the industry.
You can also get
a good project
with extremely high cost-effectiveness.
So I hope Mr. Chen
will consider,
giving us
a chance to pitch.
As planned,
our new product launches next month.
We must finalize the marketing team.
So, the time for you
to prepare your proposal
is probably only two weeks.
Can you manage?
Two weeks is fine.
Okay.
Then, quickly complete the follow-up
supplier approval documents.
I'll give you
a chance to participate in the pitch.
Of course.
Who gets chosen in the end
will still depend on strength.
Thanks, Mr. Chen.
(Bei'ao Motors)
Hello, are you Li Wu's parent?
(Clinic)
Hello, are you Li Wu's parent?
Yes.
How is he?
Fever.
Thirty-nine degrees.
He's been unwell
for a couple of days.
Medication didn't help.
Better take him
to the hospital for IV fluids.
Okay.
Thanks.
You're welcome. It's my duty.
(Treatment Room)
Let's go.
Just grabbed this from your dorm.
Put it on and come with me
to see the doctor.
Sorry, everyone's in line.
Why are you cutting in line?
Go to the back.
Line up.
Just go.
What are you doing?
I
was afraid he'd bully you.
Better now?
Sit back.
Hey, Ted.
Sorry. I'm in a bit of a hurry.
Can I request half a day off?
My younger brother is sick.
I'm accompanying him in the hospital.
Thanks.
Haven't you
eaten anything today?
Haven't eaten, right?
I
don't really feel like eating.
I'll go buy something to eat.
(Sodium Chloride Injection)
Okay. Gotta go.
(Brother)
(Sorry.)
(It's okay.)
Hello.
Your meal is ready.
Okay.
I bought congee,
shredded chicken noodles and wontons.
Too much.
Eat as much as you can.
Good nutrition helps faster recovery.
So
You.
Aren't you mad at me anymore?
I already replied to you
on WeChat, didn't I?
Eat quickly.
What do you want?
I'll just eat this.
I'll do it.
Done.
Here.
Thanks.
Delicious.
