Don't Disturb My Study Episode 7 Recap
> Don't Disturb My Study Recap
During an intense basketball match, the team from No.5 High School repeatedly fouled and pushed players from Xiangli Middle School. The aggressive tactics culminated in a player colliding with Wang Qibei, who fell, hit his head, and lost consciousness while trying to intervene. He was rushed to the infirmary where the doctor confirmed he only had a bump but advised rest. When Director Zhang arrived, she scolded Wang Qibei for getting injured.
In response, Wang Qibei exaggerated his condition, complaining of a headache and nausea, and jokingly asked the director to cover his night self-study sessions. Meanwhile, a worried Zhang Chao wanted to retaliate against No.5 High School, but Lin Xiaoran tried a different approach by questioning Nan Xiangwan. However, Nan Xiangwan dismissed their concerns, stating it was perfectly justified for a teacher to protect a student, and left.
The next morning, Nan Xiangwan deliberately waited for Wang Qibei and advised him on how to solidify his bond with Class Seven. She suggested that by faking a more serious injury and taking time off, he would create a "sense of crisis," making the students realize how much they needed him. Amused by her strategic thinking, Wang Qibei bandaged his head and took sick leave.
In class, believing Teacher Wang would still be teaching, Zhang Chao rallied Class Seven, urging them to behave well and declaring that anyone who caused trouble would be his enemy. Their loyalty was soon tested when a substitute, Teacher Xu, arrived, sparking anxiety among the students about another headteacher change. This led to an argument between Liu Jiaojiao and Zhang Chao, which was interrupted by Chen Shiyun.
She calmly advised Lin Xiaoran to focus on his academics over basketball and directly asked if he liked Nan Xiangwan, warning him about the risks of puppy love. Later, having missed the bus, Lin Xiaoran spotted Nan Xiangwan cycling by and hopped onto the back of her bike. They shared playful banter, with Lin Xiaoran joking that she could improve her cycling skills by giving him more rides.
Observing Lin Xiaoran’s apparent interest in Nan Xiangwan, Chen Shiyun found and printed a "puppy love test." At a staff meeting, Director Zhang announced the school's upcoming promotional video, selecting Chen Shiyun and Liu Yubai as student representatives. However, Zhu Cong publicly objected, arguing that academic merit, not appearance, should be the criteria and nominated himself. Chen Shiyun, not keen on being on camera, graciously declined the role.
After class, Chen Shiyun gave the "puppy love test" to Lin Xiaoran on the stairs. He initially chose "totally incompatible" to describe his relationship with Nan Xiangwan but then admitted she was the person he was thinking of while answering. Just then, Director Zhang appeared with a flashlight, nearly catching them. At the same time, she also almost discovered Liu Yubai and Nan Xiangwan secretly exchanging an MP3 player.
Lin Xiaoran quickly created a diversion by telling Director Zhang that Teacher Liao was looking for her, allowing both groups to escape. In the commotion, Chen Shiyun dropped the test paper, which Liu Yubai found. Later, he privately took the test and scored 45 points, an indicator that he was easily distracted by "external temptations."
Realizing he had signs of puppy love with his thoughts constantly returning to Nan Xiangwan, and after a warning from his father about focusing on his studies, he began to intentionally avoid her, leaving her confused by his sudden coldness. In the days that followed, with Wang Qibei absent, Class Seven became gloomy and unmotivated. Just as their spirits hit a low, Wang Qibei made a dramatic return, bringing Zeng Jianfei with him.
The students’ joy at seeing their teacher turned to shock when Zeng Jianfei announced that he was not returning to class but had come to say goodbye, as he had realized he was "not cut out for studying." Despite pleas from his classmates, he remained firm in his decision to leave.
