Falling Into You Episode 1 Recap
> Falling Into You Recap
After the morning session of the Nanhushi Third Middle School Track and Field Meet concluded, the scorching sun was like fire. Luo Na, an assistant coach from Nan University who came to the Third Middle School with Wang Qilin, director of the Nan University Sports Department, to select promising athletes, was a graduate student in training science at Nan University. During the lunch break, she met Duan Yucheng, a student from the Third Middle School, for the first time.
At that time, he jumped up to catch a badminton shuttlecock. Luo Na saw that his ankles were elegantly shaped, his Achilles tendons were slender and strong, and he was wearing a pair of spikes, clearly indicating he was a high jumper.
Later, in the afternoon competition, Luo Na saw him participating in the 400-meter track race, so she watched him a few more times, and discovered he was the first athlete to cross the finish line in the 400-meter race. Seeing Duan Yucheng cheering on the field, dazzling like the sun, Luo Na was reminded of something someone had said to her.
Wang Qilin had clearly also noticed Duan Yucheng, but seeing that his height was only 179, Wang Qilin shifted his attention to Liu Shan. Liu Shan was 192 cm tall, and had previously achieved first place in the city's middle school sports meet, so he became the main focus of Wang Qilin's trip. In the subsequent high jump competition, Luo Na observed that Duan Yucheng was imitating Holm's approach run method and technical movements.
After he jumped down, Luo Na softly uttered the name Holm, and reminded him that his last four steps were too slow. Holm was a rare genius who won the high jump gold medal at the Athens Olympics in 2004. The most crucial point was that his height was only 1. 81 meters. Duan Yucheng was clearly surprised that she knew Holm, but in the following competition, he still made adjustments according to Luo Na's reminder, and grasped it immediately.
Luo Na was very optimistic about him, but Wang Qilin remained pessimistic because of his height. Subsequently, the height kept increasing. Duan Yucheng failed to clear it in two consecutive jumps, making it very tense. He finally cleared it on the third attempt, and there was a burst of cheers from the scene. Wang Qilin didn't want to continue watching.
His preferred athlete was still Liu Shan, who had a height advantage, and he even asked a teacher to do ideological work with him. Later, Duan Yucheng followed Luo Na, gave her an ice cream, and slowly tried to extract information, confirming that Luo Na was a coach at Nan University, and then pressed her on whether they were interested in Liu Shan. Luo Na didn't speak. Although Duan Yucheng was a boy, his thoughts were very detailed.
He knew his height was not as good as Liu Shan's, but this didn't prevent him from applying to Nan University as his first choice. He boldly took off Luo Na's sunglasses, and remembered her appearance. After Luo Na returned to school, her senior Wu Ze called her down to eat bingfen. She mentioned a promising athlete she saw at the Third Middle School. Unfortunately, due to height issues, Wang Qilin wasn't interested.
Wu Ze reminded her that while she could admire the talent, she shouldn't get herself involved. As a coach's child, Luo Na had aspired to be a coach since she was young. It's just that this assistant coach position, besides doing odd jobs, truly didn't give her much room to excel. Half a month later, Duan Yucheng was admitted to Nan University's top major, the Finance Department in the School of Economics and Management.
On his first day reporting, he saw Luo Na at the track and field stadium, and actively came over to greet her. Luo Na didn't expect that what he was truly focused on was still the track and field team. Finally, Luo Na promised him that as long as he performed well in his studies at the School of Economics and Management, she would consider letting him join the track and field team.
Subsequently, Duan Yucheng went to report and took his luggage into the dormitory. His three other roommates were named Hu Junxiao, Han Dai, and Jia Shili respectively. Hu Junxiao was asleep on his bed. Han Dai wore a pair of glasses and was very thin. The fat guy playing on the computer with his shirt off was Jia Shili. Duan Yucheng greeted them, and then went to train.
After that, he would get up at four or five in the morning every day to exercise, and go to bed at nine thirty in the evening, showing great self-discipline. One day, as usual, he came out through the training field window, but unexpectedly was seen by Luo Na. Luo Na said she would lock all the windows here from now on. Duan Yucheng couldn't bargain with her, and surprisingly wanted her to train him.
