Falling Into You Episode 7 Recap
> Falling Into You Recap
State University's sprint coach thinks highly of Duan Yucheng and publicly wants to recruit him to train sprints at State University. She stated that in terms of both coaching seniority and professionalism, State University is better than Nanhu University. Duan Yucheng also clearly stated his stance: wherever Luo Na is, he will be there. While waiting before the competition, Duan Yucheng went in to change and prepare.
Unexpectedly, someone put nails in his shoes, causing Duan Yucheng's foot to get injured. At this point, the competition check-in was about to start soon, but Duan Yucheng was slow to come out. Luo Na called him. This time, Duan Yucheng didn't hide it and honestly told her about his injury. Luo Na immediately went in to check the situation and also called the team doctor Chen.
Team doctor Chen examined Duan Yucheng's condition and said this minor injury wouldn't affect the competition, but many athletes face significant psychological pressure in such situations, which can easily impact their performance. Duan Yucheng, however, thought he had a strong mentality, so he didn't care. Moreover, with Luo Na's encouragement, Duan Yucheng was full of confidence. Luo Na found out that it was Zhang Hongwen who put nails in Duan Yucheng's shoes. She called him aside for a serious talk.
Originally, as long as Zhang Hongwen could apologize to Duan Yucheng, Luo Na would not pursue the matter further. However, Zhang Hongwen had a terrible attitude and showed no remorse. The two argued loudly, attracting Wu Ze. If Wu Ze hadn't come over and stopped them, Luo Na might have actually dragged Zhang Hongwen to see Director Wang. The 100-meter final began.
Duan Yucheng competed despite his injury and surprisingly achieved a good result, coming in second place in the 100 meters with a time of 10. 77 seconds. Luo Na was very moved and was so excited in the stands that her eyes were full of tears. Afterwards, Wang Qilin also found out about Zhang Hongwen putting nails in Duan Yucheng's shoes. His opinion was to give Zhang Hongwen a chance.
Duan Yucheng was the party involved, so his opinion could also be sought. Luo Na directly stated that he didn't know about this matter, so he had no opinion. This competition revealed that Duan Yucheng is not only good at high jump but also skilled in sprinting. Wang Qilin consistently believed that height was Duan Yucheng's disadvantage. For his longer-term development, he hoped Luo Na could talk to Duan Yucheng about switching events.
Wu Ze had also known about Old Wang's plan for a long time; otherwise, he wouldn't have let Duan Yucheng participate in the 100 meters. Duan Yucheng wanted to treat everyone to a meal. What to eat and where to eat would be decided by Luo Na. Luo Na felt that the people in the team had big appetites, and Duan Yucheng's prize money definitely wouldn't be enough. Duan Yucheng was easygoing; he had a lot of pocket money.
Hearing this, Luo Na became even more reluctant to go. Duan Yucheng came up with another idea. Their family had a three-story house in the suburbs with a yard. They could buy ingredients and cook there. This would save money and allow everyone to eat their fill. Luo Na thought about it and nodded in agreement. Duan Yucheng's mother guessed that the girl her son liked might be coming today, so she also came.
She mistook the beautiful Shi Yin for the girl her son liked, and thus was very warm towards Shi Yin. Luo Na had been grilling skewers on the side. Seeing her staying with Wu Ze, Duan Yucheng felt unhappy. Drunk courage emboldened him, and he ran over to ask Luo Na if she was jealous. Luo Na denied it.
Duan Yucheng gave Luo Na the championship medal he won from the high jump competition for ten to twelve-year-olds by falsely reporting his age. He promised that he would win provincial championships, national championships, and world championships in the future, and he would give all the medals to her. Duan Yucheng's mother accidentally overheard that her son was injured because of the nails. She instantly transformed into a protective mother and questioned Luo Na about what happened.
Duan Yucheng told Luo Na to leave first, and he would explain the matter properly to his mother. Wu Ze noticed that Luo Na's mood was off and asked a few questions. Luo Na emphasized that the relationship between her and Duan Yucheng was simply that of a coach and an athlete. Although she said that, she also thought a lot that night.
