The Big Boss Season 2 Recap
Episode 1 Recap
Guan Xinyi sat upright in her seat, holding a pen and writing something on a handkerchief. After finishing, she smiled as she carefully examined the handwriting on the handkerchief: "Liao Danyi, could we meet under the banyan tree at the school gate after school?" Then she carefully tucked it into a book titled "You Are the April Day on Earth".
She looked at the beautiful title and fell into reverie again: she had lent her favorite novel to Liao Danyi, ambiguously saying she looked forward to his thoughts after reading it. At dusk, she sat on the stands of the sports field. Liao Danyi slowly walked over and sat beside her. A gentle breeze, the setting sun, pleasant bird chirping – everything was so beautiful.
She said, "Mountains may crumble, heaven and earth may merge," and Liao Danyi said, "I like the sea, I like rivers, I like streams, and I like you even more. . ." The two smiled at each other, sharing this wonderful time… After a long reverie, Guan Xinyi's thoughts returned to reality. She took a deep breath and walked towards Classroom 10. Everything went according to her plan.
She handed the book to Liao Danyi, then turned and shyly hurried away. Liao Danyi opened the book and saw the folded handkerchief. Just then, Ye Muqi walked over. She had a cold and was sneezing. In a moment of urgency, she casually grabbed the handkerchief to wipe her nose. Liao Danyi, with a look of disgust, told her to keep the handkerchief herself.
Because of this, Liao Danyi didn't see Guan Xinyi's message on the handkerchief, so after school, Guan Xinyi spent that "pleasant" evening on the stands with an aunt who was doing square dancing. Liao Danyi returned home to a messy room. The pillows and blankets were all torn to shreds, and cotton was scattered everywhere. He knew without a doubt that Xiaotian (the school dog from Season 1) was responsible.
He held down Xiaotian's head and sternly told him not to make mistakes again! The next day in class, Liao Danyi was uncharacteristically asleep. Ye Muqi, who had been his classmate for so many years, had never seen this before. She excitedly took out her phone to record this historic moment. The teacher suddenly asked a question, and Ye Muqi said Liao Danyi knew the answer, hoping to see him make a fool of himself.
Liao Danyi groggily opened his eyes, and indeed, he hadn't even heard the question. Yet, the teacher wasn't angry; he just told him to sit down. After class, Homeroom Teacher Wu called Liao Danyi to the office to inquire about his recent situation. Teacher Wu firmly believed Liao Danyi had been browsing some illegal websites, but Liao Danyi explained that his father was on a business trip and no one was home, and he had just run into some trouble.
He was unwilling to elaborate, so Teacher Wu had no choice but to let him return to class. After school that day, Ye Muqi and Liao Danyi met at an intersection while cycling. Ye Muqi was convinced that he was hiding something from everyone. Under her persistent questioning, Liao Danyi pretended he was about to tell her, tricked her into closing her eyes, and then quickly rode away. Liao Danyi returned home and took Xiaotian out for a walk.
He suddenly met a stranger asking for directions. Prompted by the stranger, he realized Xiaotian was long gone, and only the leash remained in his hand. He frantically searched everywhere – the parking lot, alleys, courtyards – but Xiaotian was nowhere to be found. After searching for a long time, he finally saw Xiaotian trembling in a corner. To punish Xiaotian, who repeatedly failed to learn, Liao Danyi said he would hit him.
But as he looked into Xiaotian's innocent, bright eyes, he couldn't bring himself to do it. Finally, he pulled Xiaotian into his arms. The next day, the female classmates gathered to discuss who they would choose as a boyfriend if they had to pick one from the boys in their class. Under their continuous questioning, they all discovered Li Yao's special feelings for Cheng Ling. But when Li Yao asked them back, they started changing the subject one by one.
That weekend, Teacher Wu came to the park because Teacher Luo, whom he liked, was going on a date there. Suddenly, a dog ran to his feet, and upon closer inspection, it was Xiaotian. Teacher Wu was very surprised. Liao Danyi also ran over right after him. It was then that Teacher Wu learned Xiaotian had been adopted by him. Moreover, Liao Danyi's low spirits and poor condition these days were all due to taking care of Xiaotian.
Liao Danyi also spoke about his worries: his father would be back in a few days, and his father definitely wouldn't let him keep a dog, so he didn't know what to do with Xiaotian then. Unfortunately, Teacher Wu wasn't listening intently; as soon as he saw Teacher Luo, he secretly followed her as if energized. Teacher Luo sat alone under the banyan tree.
This time, it was an online romance, and she had arranged to meet an online friend, but unfortunately, she waited all afternoon and he still hadn't arrived. Suddenly, she waved in their direction. Teacher Wu looked back and realized Liao Danyi had been discovered by her. Teacher Luo immediately saw that the two of them were following her.
Teacher Wu quickly made up an excuse, saying he just missed Xiaotian, which was why he came to find Danyi to walk the dog with him. After brushing off the incident, Teacher Wu switched to teasing mode. He deliberately asked Teacher Luo about meeting her online friend. Teacher Luo, throwing caution to the wind, admitted that she was in a very bad mood. At this point, Teacher Wu invited her to walk the dog with him, and Teacher Luo agreed.
So, Liao Danyi's Xiaotian was temporarily lent to the two teachers. Because of this, Liao Danyi's worries were resolved. Xiaotian was temporarily adopted by Teacher Wu and Teacher Luo. A few days later, Teacher Wu knew Liao Danyi missed Xiaotian, so he brought Xiaotian to see him. Liao Danyi hugged Xiaotian tightly, unwilling to let go. He remembered the two teachers' date yesterday.
Teacher Wu explained that he was merely looking after her as a senior colleague, but explanations are often just cover-ups. When it was time to leave, Xiaotian was reluctant to part with Liao Danyi and refused to go. Liao Danyi had to hide, but Xiaotian kept sticking to him. He remembered the days he spent taking care of Xiaotian and became even more unwilling to let him go. After several back and forth attempts, Xiaotian was finally dragged away by Teacher Wu.
Episode 2 Recap
Ye Muqi was sleeping soundly and didn't want to wake up, but a persistent knocking sound kept echoing into her room. Finally, she couldn't help but get up and open the door, only to see Liao Danyi standing outside. Ye Muqi asked him impatiently, "Are you out of your mind?" It turned out Liao Danyi was just there to deliver a message: her brother had gone to the magazine office, and Ye Muqi's breakfast was in the refrigerator.
Suddenly, Liao Danyi heard a child crying, and he walked into the house without a word. The two followed the sound to the window, only to see an old granny bullying a child. Ye Muqi found it amusing and said, "Whose granny is that!" Liao Danyi silently replied, "My grandmother," and then hurried downstairs. Granny Liao had somehow run out of the nursing home, and Liao Danyi quickly brought her back to his house.
Ye Muqi cautiously asked how Granny Liao had managed to escape. The granny, with a triumphant look, said, "Could they really stop me?" Liao Danyi called Ye Muqi aside and told her that he had an appointment to do something unavoidable, so he hoped Ye Muqi could help him take care of the granny this time. Ye Muqi reluctantly agreed.
The unavoidable matter Liao Danyi had spoken of was the debate competition between Maple Leaf Middle School and Boya Middle School. He had promised Guan Xinyi, and finally, three minutes before the match began, Liao Danyi arrived. Ye Muqi and the granny were at Liao Danyi's house, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward and boring. The granny said she would tell Ye Muqi a story about Zorro, but Ye Muqi refused.
She said she wanted to hear stories about her grandpa, as she had once seen the letters her grandpa had written to the granny, so she was very interested in their love story. So the granny started fabricating again, setting the story's background during the reign of Emperor Huizong of Song, with emperors and concubines. Ye Muqi listened, wide-eyed and dumbfounded, repeatedly calling it brilliant.
The granny then changed the subject, moving to the Republican era, with shy confessions of love between schoolboys and schoolgirls. . . The granny chatted endlessly about her and her grandpa's story. Ye Muqi could tell that the story was one-third fact and two-thirds fiction, yet she listened with great interest. Meanwhile, Liao Danyi was debating. The theme of their debate was "Is it unfilial to say 'no' to the elderly?" Liao Danyi was the representative for the opposition.
He argued with examples, well-reasoned and well-supported, leaving the opposing side speechless. And on the other side, Ye Muqi was still immersed in the world the granny had created. By this point, the story had reached the post-establishment of the country era. She and her grandpa got married, but as time went on, conflicts arose. The two of them always argued, sometimes even fought.
As for how bad their arguments got, the granny described it with battlefields filled with war, Zorro dueling, and swordsmen fighting. The story was finally over, but the granny said she wanted to go inspect Ye Muqi's house, without giving a reason. Ye Muqi brought the granny back home. At this time, her brother was on the phone with someone from the magazine office.
As soon as the granny entered, she declared the house too messy and urged them to tidy up quickly. Her brother initially didn't take it seriously, but after being hit a few times by the granny, he quickly surrendered and started cleaning the house. The granny, holding a magnifying glass, searched for flaws in the house. Suddenly, she saw a photo of Ye Muqi and Liao Danyi when they were little.
She happily picked up the photo and asked Ye Muqi how she had it. " How cute they were when they were little!" she exclaimed. She also said she had many more photos of Liao Danyi from his childhood at her house. After saying that, she took Ye Muqi back to her place to look at photos. Meanwhile, Liao Danyi appealed to both emotion and reason.
During the debate, he uncontrollably revealed his affection for his grandmother, and ultimately, Maple Leaf Middle School, which he represented, achieved victory. As he walked out of the venue, he rushed home with the doctors from the nursing home to pick up the granny. But as soon as he entered, he saw Ye Muqi and the granny sitting intimately together, looking through photos.
The two of them were laughing heartily, and Ye Muqi even promised to visit the granny at the nursing home every week. Liao Danyi expressed his surprise, never imagining that Ye Muqi would fulfill his request so well this time. However. . . he had thought too much; because Ye Muqi had forgotten to turn off the bathroom faucet, Liao Danyi's room was already completely flooded! And for this very reason, the floor in Liao Danyi's house was ruined by the water, so Liao Danyi had to temporarily move into Ye Muqi's house.
Episode 3 Recap
Ye Muqi sat on the bed, fuming. Her brother carefully pushed the door open, trying to talk to her with a fawning expression, but Ye Muqi didn't appreciate it. She was extremely angry because her brother had agreed to Liao Danyi moving into their home! It was clear that her brother had a very good impression of Liao Danyi. Ye Muqi grabbed her suitcase and noisily threatened to run away from home.
Her brother, having no other choice, called Liao Danyi and asked him to clarify things with Ye Muqi face to face. Liao Danyi said it was possible he'd rob her of money, but robbing her of her person was probably her overthinking. The two of them had an argument, with Ye Muqi's brother caught in the middle. In the end, Ye Muqi successfully drove Liao Danyi out of the door.
In the morning, her brother made delicious hotpot and kept urging Liao Danyi to eat. During the meal, Liao Danyi said that he would still pay rent for staying there, but he temporarily had no money, so he would clean to offset the rent. This morning, he had already cleaned the bathroom. He also reminded Ye Muqi not to put her toothbrush on the sink, otherwise, it would be easy to get sick.
Ye Muqi not only didn't listen but also tried to argue with him. The two of them then had an argument about whether toothbrushes should lie flat or stand upright. Her brother stopped them and appointed Liao Danyi as the leader of the household hygiene team, responsible for supervising the cleanliness of the home. Immediately after, Liao Danyi proposed suggestions for improving breakfast.
He said that hotpot wasn't good for health, and he suggested cooking some red date, millet, and lily porridge. Of course, he would take care of all of it. Hearing this, her brother was overjoyed. In the evening, Liao Danyi was doing homework on the sofa in the living room when he heard bursts of noise from upstairs. It turned out that Ye Muqi was having a "chuunibyou" episode, using her bed as a stage to perform.
The more she jumped, the more energetic she became, and the more annoyed Liao Danyi downstairs became. The next evening, Ye Muqi and Liao Danyi sat on the sofa watching TV. Ye Muqi wanted to watch a violent war drama, while Liao Danyi wanted to watch international news. The two of them fought over the remote control, and in the end, Ye Muqi won. During the day, the two of them argued again over snacks.
Liao Danyi blamed Ye Muqi for littering after eating snacks. Ye Muqi said she was happy to! Liao Danyi stopped talking, which showed he was truly angry. Ye Muqi looked at him, feeling a bit uneasy, and reluctantly gave in to clean the living room. But she had no idea how to clean, and Liao Danyi just shook his head at the sight.
Back in her room, Ye Muqi discovered that her paintbrushes had been tampered with: the caps were on! She never put the caps on her brushes. Her first reaction was that Liao Danyi did it! For revenge, she drew graffiti all over Liao Danyi's English textbook and stuffed an extremely girly and childish pencil case into his backpack. When Liao Danyi took out the pencil case in class, he was completely petrified!
On campus, Shen Wei's backpack was somehow hanging high up in a tree. Huang Nan and Huang Yi tried to help her figure out a way to get it down. A human pyramid? No. Throw their own backpacks to knock hers down? As a result, all three of their backpacks ended up hanging in the tree. Returning home in the evening, Liao Danyi packed his things, intending to leave the Ye family home.
Ye Muqi's brother knew that Ye Muqi must have offended him, so he tried every means to persuade him to stay, and even made Ye Muqi apologize to him, threatening to cancel family hotpot and never eat it again if she didn't apologize! At this, Ye Muqi also began to accuse Liao Danyi of his "crimes."
She brought up the paintbrush incident, saying that Liao Danyi had put the caps on her brushes, and now she had to open the caps every time before painting, which directly caused her to lose her inspiration for painting! Liao Danyi retorted sharply that Ye Muqi's paintings were practically kindergarten work! During the argument, he suddenly felt a dizzy spell. It was then that Ye Muqi's brother discovered he had a fever.
Episode 4 Recap
Liao Danyi was truly sick. He lay in bed, his entire body burning hot. Ye Muqi felt extremely guilty, as after all, she was the cause of all this. She promised Liao Danyi that she would definitely make him better. Wrapped in a quilt, Liao Danyi said, "Ye Muqi, I hate you!" Ye Muqi heard him but wasn't angry; instead, she enthusiastically went to pour him water, as if she had become a different person.
She truly took great care of Liao Danyi, fetching water for him, applying a towel to his forehead, and even when exhausted, she only lay on the sofa for a short while. After waking up, she found Liao Danyi gone. She was startled, wondering how a fever could make someone disappear. It turned out that Liao Danyi felt much better after a night's rest, so he got up to make breakfast for Ye Muqi and thanked her.
The breakfast was porridge he personally cooked, and although it was a bit undercooked, Ye Muqi still praised it repeatedly. Suddenly, Ye Muqi seemed to remember something and hurriedly pulled out several bottles of medicine from a drawer, carefully reminding Liao Danyi to take them. The two rarely got along so harmoniously. Suddenly, Ye Muqi noticed Huang Nan downstairs at her house. She remembered that she seemed to have promised him something.
She quickly told Liao Danyi to hide and rushed to open the door. Upon opening the door, Zhu Shanqi, Xue Xiaodong, Huang Nan, and Huang Yi all came in. It turned out Ye Muqi had promised them to study together on the weekend. As they were talking, a sound suddenly came from upstairs. Ye Muqi quickly covered it up by saying her toy hadn't been placed properly and had fallen.
The classmates talked about Liao Danyi, saying Ye Muqi had badmouthed him behind his back, calling him a scumbag and saying he was narcissistic and annoying. Ye Muqi repeatedly tried to stop them. At this moment, another sound from upstairs startled the classmates. Ye Muqi told them to stay seated and not move, then hurried upstairs herself. It turned out that Liao Danyi had heard Ye Muqi speaking ill of him upstairs and was so angry that he threw something.
Just as Ye Muqi entered the room, before the two of them could say anything, the classmates followed them. She had no choice but to block the doorway. At this critical moment, Ye Muqi thought of a surprisingly effective solution: she directly admitted that she was hiding a man in her room, her new boyfriend. How could the classmates believe that? They all thought she was joking, and thus they no longer insisted on entering her room to check.
After finally seeing off the classmates, Ye Muqi felt a great weight lifted off her shoulders and collapsed onto the floor, exhausted. During the English class the next day, the classmates were each doing their own thing. Even Liao Danyi was listening to the lesson while flicking paper wads back and forth with Ye Muqi. In the end, Ye Muqi was defeated. Ye Muqi did not give up.
She made a hidden weapon called a "blow dart," hoping to defeat Liao Danyi with it. Just as she was feeling smug, the teacher suddenly asked her to stand up and read the words on the blackboard. Of course, she couldn't answer. That evening, Liao Danyi still stayed at Ye Muqi's house. The two of them, one drawing upstairs and the other listening to music downstairs, did not disturb each other, and it was quite peaceful.
Episode 5 Recap
On the last class of the last day of the semester, the students of Class 10 embraced and bid farewell as if it were a separation of life and death, as if sad background music was playing, and everyone was enveloped in a "desolate" atmosphere. Only Liao Danyi stood up coldly, and coldly broke the atmosphere, saying it was just the end of the semester, see you next semester!
After saying that, he turned and left, leaving everyone with a dashing silhouette. After he walked out the door, the students' happy emotions finally erupted completely, cheering: "Holiday!" During the holiday, Xue Xiaodong and Ye Muqi arranged to go out. At a coffee shop, Xue Xiaodong said that because of his poor acting skills, his agent arranged an acting class for him. However, the teacher required a girl he was more familiar with to attend the class with him.
He wanted to invite Ye Muqi to go with him, and after her repeated refusals were unsuccessful, Ye Muqi had no choice but to agree. On the other side, Liao Danyi enrolled in an Olympiad math class, and unexpectedly, Guan Xinyi was also in the same class. The acting class teacher was very strange, known as 'Teacher Biao'. She took out two scenes for Xue Xiaodong to perform for her.
His agent, Annie, eagerly wanted to perform with Xiaodong, but unfortunately, her acting skills were truly terrible. Teacher Biao ruthlessly interrupted her, and then asked Ye Muqi to act with Xue Xiaodong. Ye Muqi still had talent; she quickly got into character. That scene was a classic from the movie 'Days of Being Wild'. Both performed very well at first, but gradually, Xue Xiaodong's flaws were exposed one by one, either forgetting lines or having awkward expressions.
He simply didn't perform as well as Ye Muqi, and Teacher Biao was also very satisfied with Ye Muqi's performance. On the other side, the students on holiday each had their own things to do. Huang Nan and Huang Yi were being mischievous again; they were recording a so-called courage competition, which involved surprising and kissing random girls, then laughing heartily if successful. Meanwhile, Liao Danyi was studying Olympiad math with Guan Xinyi; he was explaining problems to her.
Guan Xinyi appeared calm on the surface, but her heart was still turbulent. The acting class continued until evening. Ye Muqi was helping Xue Xiaodong get into character, speaking lines of love from the movie to him. Finally, hard work paid off, and Xue Xiaodong managed to deliver his lines with emotion. The acting class continued, but Xue Xiaodong's acting skills were still not up to par.
However, Ye Muqi was quite favored by Teacher Biao; the acting class seemed to be specifically for her. In one segment, they were asked what sad things they had experienced. Ye Muqi then spoke about her family matters, something she had never told anyone before. When she was young, her father left without a word, and her mother passed away from depression, leaving only her older brother and her to rely on each other.
Her brother had truly sacrificed a lot for her over the years, which she secretly kept in her heart. Growing up, she learned that her father had abandoned them and was now remarried. As she spoke, her eyes welled up with tears. . .
When Xue Xiaodong talked about his troubles and sorrows, he said his only distress was having too many fans, and he simply didn't know what pain and sadness were, so there was no emotion in his eyes. After school, Guan Xinyi cycled home alone, fantasizing that Liao Danyi was by her side. Unfortunately, there was no one beside her except a street sweeper.
Suddenly, a plan to attract Liao Danyi popped into her mind: she falsely claimed her bicycle was broken, pushed Liao Danyi's bike away, and made Danyi chase her. However, before she had gone a few steps, she was sprayed with water by Huang Yi and Huang Nan, who were causing trouble on the street with water guns, instantly making her look utterly disheveled. Xue Xiaodong was very distressed because he genuinely couldn't act.
Ye Muqi taught him to be more natural when acting in the future, just thinking about the people he cared about. So, Xue Xiaodong thought of Ye Muqi, and with this idea, in the subsequent lessons, he naturally expressed his true feelings, which was his love for his mother.
Episode 6 Recap
Because Guan Xinyi was sprayed all over with water by Huang Nan and Huang Yi, as a boy, Liao Danyi couldn't just ignore her. So he brought her to Ye Muqi's house, where he was temporarily staying, to take a bath. Guan Xinyi was still unaware. She rarely had such alone time with Liao Danyi, and her heart was blooming with joy.
The two were sitting on the sofa chatting casually, when Ye's older brother came downstairs, thinking Liao Danyi had something going on; otherwise, why would he bring a girl home? Liao Danyi quickly explained that she was just a classmate. Ye's older brother then relaxed and quickly introduced himself, almost saying he was Ye Muqi's brother. Liao Danyi quickly interrupted him, saying he was his own brother—Brother Liao, because Guan Xinyi had always been at odds with Ye Muqi.
Ye Muqi was still acting with Xue Xiaodong. This time, Xue Xiaodong performed very well, using the scene to express his affection for Ye Muqi. After his confession, he slowly leaned in to kiss Ye Muqi as part of the act. Just at this final moment, the acting teacher called "Cut!" But when evaluating the performance, the acting teacher still gave Xue Xiaodong a "failing" grade, though he praised him for having potential.
As for Ye Muqi, the acting teacher gave her extremely high praise, saying she hoped Ye Muqi would seriously consider pursuing an acting career, but Ye Muqi politely declined her. After the acting class, Ye Muqi went home. After chatting briefly with her brother, she returned to her room to rest. All of this was seen by Guan Xinyi, who was touching up her makeup in the bathroom. She was incredibly disbelieving, feeling both angry and sad.
Just then, Liao Danyi brought her the dried clothes. She didn't take them but instead threw them fiercely at Liao Danyi, cursing "Beast!" before leaving Ye's house. Zhu Shanqi met classmate Meijing at a beverage shop. She enthusiastically greeted Meijing, only to find that she was constantly hiccuping. To help her, Zhu Shanqi came up with a bad idea—eating candy and drinking beverages, but unfortunately, it had no effect. Just then, classmate Shen Wei also arrived.
She told Meijing's fortune, saying she had a sign of great misfortune today, and told her to follow her compass, but it was still useless. Classmate Yuan Ke'er also came over. She suggested finding someone to scare Meijing, and she would stop hiccuping. So they all went together to find classmate Li Yao for help. In the end, it also had no effect. Not only that, but all four of them were infected by Meijing and started to hiccup themselves.
On the other side, Grandma Liao was missing again. Liao Danyi and Ye Muqi went out together to look for her. On the way, they met Huang Nan and Huang Yi. These two guys were sitting by the roadside crying. It turned out that Huang Nan not only got injured while skateboarding, but his skateboard was also snatched by an old lady. According to their description, that old lady should be Grandma Liao.
On the way to find his grandma, Liao Danyi told Ye Muqi the story of his grandma. It turned out that Grandpa Liao had passed away a long time ago, and Grandma Liao had always stayed in the old house, refusing to move. Later, the old house also collapsed, and Grandma gradually developed this mental illness. The two searched all the way but found no trace.
Suddenly, Ye Muqi remembered a love letter she had once seen that Grandpa Liao wrote to Grandma Liao. She thought of a place where Grandma Liao might go. By the sea, Ye Muqi and Liao Danyi finally found Grandma Liao. Grandma Liao was sitting alone by the sea, saying that she had forgotten many things, but this one place, she dared not and refused to forget. She waved Liao Danyi aside, saying she had something to tell Ye Muqi.
She asked Ye Muqi how she knew she was there. Ye Muqi had to admit that she had peeked at the letters in her box. Grandma feigned anger and told Ye Muqi to hold out her hand, but instead gave her the white jade bracelet from the box. Ye Muqi was pleasantly surprised and finally accepted the gift. Liao Danyi was also very puzzled and couldn't understand it.
Episode 7 Recap
Ye Muqi was woken up by her phone's ringing while asleep. It turned out her classmates were coming over to study at her house. She groggily agreed, but only after hanging up the phone did she suddenly remember that Liao Danyi was still hiding at home. This absolutely couldn't be known by her classmates.
She hurriedly tried to make Liao Danyi leave, but Liao Danyi came up with a plan, saying that he had arrived at the Ye family's house in advance. Soon after, Zhu Shanqi and Xue Xiaodong arrived. Liao Danyi opened the door. Ye Muqi changed her clothes and came downstairs, exaggeratedly pretending not to know that Liao Danyi had arrived earlier. Her clumsy and over-the-top acting made Liao Danyi shake his head.
The few of them gathered in the living room to study. Suddenly, Ye Muqi's brother's phone rang. Ye Muqi was about to answer the phone for her brother, but her brother panicked and hung up the phone. Just then, the doorbell rang again. Before her brother could stop her, Ye Muqi opened the door. Two tall, burly men in black clothes and black sunglasses burst in.
They said they were there to pick up Ye Muqi's brother to take him to a seaside villa. But her brother was scared out of his wits, saying that these people were there to arrest him. Ye Muqi and her classmates initially wanted to help her brother, but when they heard they could go to a seaside villa, they immediately switched sides, forcing her brother to take them all to the seaside villa. Waves, sandy beaches, white clouds, and seagulls.
The classmates had a great time playing at the beach, leaving Ye Muqi's brother alone to guard the seaside villa. He tried to sneak away, but the men in black were watching him at the door. No matter what request her brother made or what problem arose, they would immediately resolve it. In fact, all of this was to pressure her brother to finish his manuscript quickly. After dozens of failed escape attempts, he finally gave in.
He had no choice but to rack his brains indoors, conceiving his novel. What a coincidence. As the school recently advocated for students to leave campus and connect with nature, Guan Xinyi also led her class of students to the seaside for a vacation. She slowly walked towards the sea alone, throwing a message in a bottle, containing her innermost thoughts, into the sea.
At the same time, her little follower He Lvxi also threw a message in a bottle, just like her. Her bottle happened to be picked up. She was incredibly excited, hoping the person who picked up this message in a bottle was the one she had in mind. But when she saw that it was He Lvxi, her expression instantly darkened. Zhu Shanqi was leisurely eating snacks in the villa.
When Xue Xiaodong walked over, she immediately pretended to be sick to attract his attention. Meanwhile, Ye Muqi and Liao Danyi were competing in beach volleyball. In the end, Liao Danyi's side won the game. The competitive Ye Muqi was unhappy. Whenever this happened, she would become especially childish and unreasonable. She insisted that Liao Danyi's ball was out of bounds. Finally, the two decided to play again. Whoever lost would eat sand and drink seawater! But in the end, after dozens of rounds, neither of them had managed to win.
Episode 8 Recap
Ye Muqi suddenly wanted to repay her older brother. For years, he had been taking care of her, making her delicious food, especially her favorite hotpot. So, she decided to "return the favor" by making gourmet meals for him as well. However, she didn't know how to cook. After some internal struggle, she decided to attend a cooking class, but not by herself.
She invited many friends to go with her, as her classmates had nothing to do during the holidays anyway. Meanwhile, Guan Xinyi, who was infatuated with Liao Danyi, was flipping through photos she had secretly taken of him, giggling foolishly as she looked. She suddenly remembered an old saying: "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach." Thus, she also decided to sign up for a cooking class.
Guan Xinyi entered the cooking class with He Lvxi, only to her surprise, the mischievous bunch from Class 10 were all there. Ye Muqi had indeed mobilized them to learn cooking. The chef instructor told them they would be learning Western-style pastries today and first gave them some free creative time. The students eagerly picked up the ingredients at hand: butter, cream, flour, jam. . . and began making their pastries. Before long, the finished products were out.
The quality of the students' creations varied, but Xue Xiaodong's result was the most dreadful, and no one was willing to taste it. Xue Xiaodong blew a breath onto his pastry, and his fan Zhu Shanqi instantly lost her mind, tasting his pastry despite all warnings. After eating it, she felt like she had "ascended to immortality," and was eventually sent home by Xue Xiaodong to rest. The other students continued to learn cooking.
Student Cheng Ling suddenly asked Li Yao why she came to the cooking class. Li Yao was stunned, her mind filled with scenes of her cooking for Cheng Ling. Meanwhile, Ye Muqi was telling everyone about her older brother taking care of her, such as covering her with a blanket and comforting her when she was unhappy. Guan Xinyi, unaware of the truth, thought Ye Muqi was talking about Liao Danyi, and consequently fumed with rage, even bursting into tears.
Finally, the chef inspected their creations, and almost all the students received very good evaluations. Today's Chinese composition topic was "Those Adults." Ye Muqi wrote about Class 10's homeroom teacher, Teacher Wu Heng. This teacher was no longer young, but he always had a childish streak, though all the students liked him. She remembered the monthly exam commendation ceremony when Liao Danyi had been first in the monthly exams four times in a row.
Teacher Wu Heng shamelessly declared that it was, of course, because he taught them so well! There was also the time he confiscated Huang Nan and Huang Yi's shojo manga, only to secretly indulge in reading them himself. He was also exceptionally vain, always taking selfies while walking. Another time, he sought out Shen Wei, saying he had been particularly unlucky recently, and asked Shen Wei to tell his fortune.
In the end, he insisted on spending eighty yuan to buy a protective talisman from her. The holidays passed in a flash. The students arrived at school at the time Teacher Wu had announced, only to find the school exceptionally deserted. Just then, Teacher Wu walked in, unhurriedly writing on the blackboard as he told them that due to a slight oversight on his part, he had notified them of the wrong time, and so. . .
The students looked at the words on the blackboard: "School starts tomorrow!" Teacher Wu fled in a panic, with the students chasing after him relentlessly! Xue Xiaodong received another love confession! This time it was from Yali, a student from the same school. Such occurrences were not uncommon, so Xue Xiaodong himself and his manager remained very calm, methodically executing Plan A.
Xue Xiaodong found Yali and specially performed a dance and sang a song for her, making Yali utterly infatuated, and she immediately went online to order tickets for his next month's concert.
Episode 9 Recap
Xue Xiaodong didn't understand why his manager, Annie, placed such importance on him being confessed to by a fan. Annie explained that the last time, another female celebrity in the entertainment industry, Chi Wanjun, got into a lot of trouble because she didn't handle a male fan's confession properly. Moreover, this student, Yali, came from a very good family, and Annie believed she would definitely be helpful to Xue Xiaodong's career.
Just as she expected, Yali booked the first three rows of VIP seats for Xue Xiaodong's concert next week, and with this, became the president of Xue Xiaodong's third fan club! Teacher Wu didn't like Xue Xiaodong being an idol while also juggling his studies. He earnestly told him that studying hard was so that later, after his value had been exploited by people with ulterior motives, he could stand on his own in society with his knowledge.
Xue Xiaodong nodded, seemingly understanding yet not fully. During a break one day, Huang Nan, Huang Yi, Cheng Ling, Xue Xiaodong, and Xiong Tiancheng gathered together to chat. They talked about the embarrassing moments of Guan Xinyi's follower, He Lvxi: things like using bathwater to make instant noodles, his pants splitting during the flag-raising ceremony, and taking a shower while wearing shoes. . . Unexpectedly, He Lvxi was standing right outside Classroom 10, hearing everything clearly.
He walked into Classroom 10 with a gloomy expression, but the students in Classroom 10 weren't afraid of him and continued to tease him unrestrainedly. He had no choice but to leave dejectedly. Xue Xiaodong told Ye Muqi and Zhu Shanqi that his career had hit a bottleneck and asked them to help him. Both readily agreed. So, Xue Xiaodong played a melody and asked them to help write lyrics.
Ye Muqi was the first to finish, but her lyrics were rather unconventional: "Rocket launcher, rocket launcher, one shot sends you back home. . ." Zhu Shanqi was stunned, but Xue Xiaodong was especially pleased. He actually adopted these lyrics, and Ye Muqi became even more proactive in coming up with new ones when she saw his reaction. Watching Xue Xiaodong and Ye Muqi so close, Zhu Shanqi felt a bit jealous.
She told Ye Muqi that her lyrics were too childish and not suitable for Xue Xiaodong. The two argued about this, and Ye Muqi, angered, left the classroom. Zhu Shanqi accompanied Xue Xiaodong to write lyrics, but she became increasingly distracted. Her mind kept drifting to Ye Muqi, who had run out in anger: "Maybe what I said just now was indeed too harsh. . ." Finally, she left Xue Xiaodong to look for Ye Muqi.
She walked along the various paths in the campus, and although she couldn't see Ye Muqi, all the little memories with Ye Muqi flooded into her mind: the two of them eating snacks together, having hotpot together, reviewing homework together. . . Eventually, she found Ye Muqi by the sandpit, building sandcastles. She silently walked over to Ye Muqi and helped her build sandcastles. Seeing Ye Muqi sulking, she carefully apologized.
Ye Muqi was not a petty person to begin with, and the two immediately reconciled. They started singing the "Rocket Launcher" song together, and though it was off-key, their joyful singing drifted far away. The exam papers were handed out, and Huang Yi, for the first time ever, scored eighty points. He was extraordinarily proud, telling everyone he met, wishing he could broadcast the news on the evening news. Everyone else was too lazy to bother with him.
It wasn't until class that the teacher told them that due to her oversight, the previous exam papers were mistakenly from junior high first grade. However, the students' scores were all very good, with an average score above ninety-five! Huang Yi instantly turned to stone.
Episode 10 Recap
Guan Xinyi suddenly came to Class 10 to find Liao Danyi, saying that many students in Class 10 were not wearing their school uniforms according to school regulations. She hoped that Liao Danyi, as a class committee member, could manage this situation. Liao Danyi politely refused her, saying that such matters should be reported to the class monitor. However, during their conversation, students from Class 10 appeared one after another in improperly worn school uniforms, practically demonstrating Guan Xinyi's words.
Liao Danyi also realized the seriousness of the problem and then agreed to Guan Xinyi. Liao Danyi held a class committee meeting specifically to discuss the dress code issue with the students. The students were indifferent, believing they weren't not wearing school uniforms, but merely modified them, albeit with significant alterations. At this point, Ye Muqi spoke for some students, voicing their feelings: "The school uniform is too ugly!"
As soon as she said this, it was immediately opposed by Shen Wei, Cheng Ling, and Xiong Tiancheng. They thought the school uniform looked quite good. Ye Muqi jumped out and said this was because they were "uncool", while her side of the students were fashionable! Finally, Liao Danyi couldn't help himself. He picked up a school uniform and covered the head of the gesticulating Ye Muqi.
The two almost got into a fight, fortunately, they were pulled apart by their classmates. Ultimately, the students decided to resolve the dispute in a real-life CS (Counter-Strike) mode: whoever wins, gets to decide. This incident was later referred to as the "Class 10 Freshman Civil War"! The Class 10 students arrived at the real-life CS arena. Ye Muqi, Zhu Shanqi, Xue Xiaodong, Yuan Ke'er, Huang Nan, and Huang Yi formed one team.
Liao Danyi led the other students as the opposing team. As soon as the game began, Ye Muqi's team employed a strategy of "luring the enemy deep." They had Zhu Shanqi lean against a tree, pretending to suffer from heatstroke and injury. Opponent team members, out of concern for a classmate, wanted to help her, but they fell into the trap and were captured.
Additionally, Ye Muqi's team had another heroine, Li Yao, who was "no less brave than a man." She single-handedly repelled countless opponents! Speaking of this heroine, her deeds are also quite extraordinary: she has always had a crush on Cheng Ling. After Cheng Ling was injured playing basketball that time, she actually gave him a "princess carry" and took him to the infirmary! The most formidable player on the opposing team was undoubtedly Captain Liao Danyi.
He loves playing basketball and has excellent physical fitness, making him Ye Muqi's team's strongest opponent! However, while the Class 10 civil war was in full swing, forces outside Class 10 were also quietly spreading. That is, Guan Xinyi and He Lvxi also arrived at the arena. They came to help Liao Danyi's team. Speaking of which, this Guan Xinyi is also a devoted woman; no matter how many times she tried to forget Liao Danyi, she just couldn't.
Turning our attention back to the battlefield, with the addition of Guan Xinyi and He Lvxi, Liao Danyi's team subtly gained the upper hand, showing signs of turning defeat into victory. To ensure the team that Xue Xiaodong was on would win, his agent, Annie, surprisingly also joined the fight. And there were Huang Nan and Huang Yi, those two troublemakers. However, their performance this time was actually quite good: first, they used psychological tactics to win over several opponents. Then, the brothers cooperated seamlessly, causing the opposing side to retreat repeatedly! The battle grew increasingly fierce. As for the final outcome, let us wait and see!
Episode 11 Recap
The school uniform war continued, but in this battle, an epic romance unexpectedly emerged: the romantic encounter between Xue Xiaodong and Zhu Shanqi amidst the flames of war. On the battlefield, both sides were still fighting fiercely. Guan Xinyi and He Lvxi fought hard against the enemy, gradually losing strength. The two hid in a trench. He Lvxi, moved by emotion, confessed his feelings to Guan Xinyi, but Guan Xinyi wasn't listening to him at all.
In the end, he decided to "die" for Guan Xinyi, rushing out of the trench recklessly. He was eventually shot and eliminated. Watching his falling figure, Guan Xinyi also recalled various past events. This little follower worshipped her immensely, sticking behind her all day. Once, he painstakingly taught her origami. Although he ended up folding only a small frog, it was undeniable that He Lvxi had always been exceptionally good to her. Guan Xinyi decided to avenge He Lvxi.
She secretly followed Anne, who had shot He Lvxi, and took her down with a single shot. On the battlefield, no one could remain aloof. Yesterday's good friends could be today's enemies, just like the good friends Shen Wei and Yuan Ke'er. They also had to face the departure of comrades-in-arms, just like Zhu Shanqi was shot and eliminated while saving Ye Muqi. Liao Danyi and Xue Xiaodong also dueled.
In the end, Xue Xiaodong was defeated by Liao Danyi's gun. Ye Muqi's team had fewer and fewer people. Liao Danyi's team surprisingly turned the tide and won. Now Ye Muqi was hiding alone in a trench, heavily besieged. In her mind, the two dinosaurs Wolong and Sima appeared, however, the two of them were useless for the current battle situation. Ye Muqi struggled with all her might and broke through the encirclement.
By this time, both teams had suffered heavy casualties, and only she and Liao Danyi remained. Actually, although Liao Danyi sometimes seemed a bit out of place with Class Ten, in reality, his heart was very much with Class Ten. The Class Ten students were also very good to him. What moved him most was the surprise birthday party organized by Ye Muqi for him. As Liao Danyi was immersed in these past memories, Ye Muqi pulled the trigger.
Liao Danyi lost, and Ye Muqi cheered that she had won. At this moment, classmate Shen Wei, who had fortunately survived, suddenly appeared, and took down Ye Muqi with a single shot. Therefore, this great civil war ended with Liao Danyi's team winning. The next day at school, the losing students all put on their school uniforms, and stood together on the podium for a photo. But despite this, Ye Muqi and the others did not give in.
She said their free style would never be prohibited! That day, Huang Yi and Huang Nan were walking on the road. Huang Nan's phone was snatched. The two of them frantically gave chase, and also impulsively snatched classmate Yuan Ke'er's bicycle. But to their surprise, Huang Nan couldn't ride a bike. So, chasing the robber turned into learning to ride a bike. In the end, Huang Nan successfully learned to ride a bike. As for the phone, they reported it to the police to handle.
Episode 12 Recap
The students in Class 10 were playing a game where a group of people are assigned different roles, such as Werewolves, Hunters, etc., but they don't know each other's identities. Those caught by the Werewolves are eliminated. Currently, Ye Muqi and Zhu Shanqi have been "killed" by the Werewolves. The remaining students needed to deduce who the Werewolf was, but unfortunately, they didn't succeed; instead, they had an internal conflict and started arguing.
So the game ended, and a new round began. This time, Huang Yi drew the Werewolf card. Xue Xiaodong was eliminated first. The students continued to deduce, but couldn't figure out the right approach. Eventually, Xiong Tiancheng, who was the judge, couldn't bear it anymore, and he personally helped everyone deduce. Xiong Tiancheng started from the first night of the case. That night, Zhu Shanqi was killed.
He first suspected Ye Muqi, because only new players would target people they know. But after Ye Muqi was voted out, the game didn't end. Subsequently, on the second night, the Werewolf committed another crime, and Shen Wei had been saving herself through her fortune-telling and divination skills. This way, Ye Muqi, Zhu Shanqi, and Xue Xiaodong had good identities, Shen Wei was the Witch, and there must be one Werewolf among the remaining people.
But the students' opinions were still not unified, and Xiong Tiancheng could only exclaim that this game was too difficult! Huang Nan found Huang Yi. He had long suspected his elder brother because he saw Huang Yi smiling sinisterly at his own statue. Huang Yi immediately explained that he was smiling because his instant noodles were almost ready. The simple-minded Huang Nan actually believed his nonsense. The two happily ate instant noodles. While eating, they also analyzed the Werewolf's identity.
They were completely stumped by the analysis and still hadn't figured it out. In the end, the two decided to vote together tomorrow, but would definitely not vote for each other, instead voting others out one by one! The game on the second day began. The students analyzed and voted together. This time, their direction was correct, and they pinpointed Huang Nan and Huang Yi as the Werewolves. But the two vehemently denied it.
They recalled the performances of various classmates in these few rounds of the game. Gradually, the game unexpectedly went off track. They all recalled their usual friendship with classmates, and no one was willing to vote anyone out. Finally, amidst the cheers and hugs of the classmates, the game was forcibly ended!
Episode 13 Recap
During this time, Maple Leaf Middle School was very unsettled. First, late at night, Liao Danyi was followed by a person in black. Immediately after, Huang Nan and Huang Yi seemed to be plotting something, acting mysteriously, and they were also connected to that person in black. Guan Xinyi was called over by Director Yan, who said that exam cheating has been very serious these days.
He has now temporarily revised an exam paper, asked Guan Xinyi to keep it safe, and to catch those who cheated. Guan Xinyi felt a heavy burden on her shoulders. Standing on the playground, she thoughtfully watched the students running.
He Lvxi ran over to accompany her and told her that recently a student named "Answer" has appeared at school, who can get any kind of exam paper, solve it immediately, and then sell the answers to other students at an extremely low price. Therefore, Guan Xinyi specially gathered all the student council members, hoping to identify this "Answer" and all the students who cheated.
At this moment, Ye Muqi and Zhu Shanqi were arguing over an answer for Director Yan's homework. Huang Yi and Huang Nan at the door were distributing a stack of papers to other students and just happened to run into Guan Xinyi. Guan Xinyi thought they were distributing answers and immediately sent people to take them to the student council. However, she was really mistaken this time. The two of them were distributing flyers for the welfare home.
Guan Xinyi's face flushed and then paled, and under Huang Nan and Huang Yi's sarcasm, she silently let them go. Ye Muqi seemed a bit unhappy because there was a teacher's Q&A session tomorrow. More importantly, she found that many students looked down on the students from Class 10. As a class monitor, she should lead her classmates towards a better path, but she didn't seem to have achieved this. However, comforted by Wolong and Sima, she felt relieved again.
Director Yan found Guan Xinyi and gave her the list of students who received zero points after the revised exam. He asked her to post the list publicly the next day, and those students would all be disciplined. He also reminded Guan Xinyi to do well in tomorrow's education level test to bring honor to the school. Guan Xinyi was not very happy. On her way home, pushing her cart, she met Liao Danyi.
She invited Liao Danyi to walk with her, but Liao Danyi refused. In fact, these cheating incidents were all orchestrated by Huang Yi and Huang Nan. They would first obtain the exam papers, then have Liao Danyi create the answers, and finally sell them at a low price. Unfortunately, today the exam paper was temporarily changed, so the answers were useless. The two of them even had to return money to other students. This time, they suffered a huge loss.
The reason why Liao Danyi was willing to cooperate with them is unknown. However, Guan Xinyi was unaware of all this. Instead, she approached Liao Danyi and asked him to help her investigate the cheating case. On the one hand, she trusted Liao Danyi's abilities, and on the other hand, she also wanted to find an excuse to get closer to him.
This time, she arranged to meet Liao Danyi on the rooftop again, because Director Yan had given her another set of fake answers. She asked Liao Danyi to give these answers to Huang Nan and Huang Yi. This way, any student who wrote their exam according to these answers the next day would definitely be involved in the cheating case.
Liao Danyi gave the answers to Huang Nan and Huang Yi, but the two of them discovered something wrong with the answers. That was, there were two fewer questions than a regular exam paper. They asked Liao Danyi, but Liao Danyi questioned them back. In the end, they had no choice but to take these answers for now and then figure out another solution after they found the two missing questions.
Episode 14 Recap
Huang Nan and Huang Yi called the black-clothed man responsible for stealing the exam papers, asking him why two questions were missing from the papers. The black-clothed man claimed ignorance. To clarify the situation, the two of them planned to meet with the black-clothed man. Liao Danyi did not leave after giving the answers to the two brothers, but instead secretly observed them from the shadows.
When the two went to their appointment, he also secretly followed them, tailing them all the way to the cinema. He then called Guan Xinyi over. At this time, the classic romance film "Titanic" was playing in the cinema. Huang Nan and Huang Yi were sitting in the front rows when a mysterious person wearing a black hoodie walked over.
Huang Nan and Huang Yi chatted with him for a few words, but he said nothing, took the incomplete exam papers, and left. Liao Danyi and Guan Xinyi quickly followed him. The next day, students who had copied the wrong answers were criticized in a public notice and suspended from class. Ye Muqi felt very indignant for them, believing that although they made a mistake, it shouldn't warrant suspension.
Director Yan heard their complaints and only stopped after scolding them again. Huang Nan and Huang Yi pulled Ye Muqi aside and gave her the answers for this monthly exam, asking her to distribute them to other students as a form of atonement. Ye Muqi accepted the answers because she and Liao Danyi had made a bet that she would definitely score higher than him at least once.
Holding the answers, Ye Muqi felt that tomorrow's exam would be smooth sailing. She seemed to envision Liao Danyi, having scored low, bowing and apologizing profusely before her, who had scored high. The next day, the monthly exam had randomized exam rooms. Guan Xinyi and Ye Muqi surprisingly ended up in the same exam room. Ye Muqi rushed in with a bottle of water.
Guan Xinyi immediately noticed that the water was suspicious, so she used the excuse of going to the restroom and discreetly took Ye Muqi's water. Consequently, all of Ye Muqi's cheating plans were ruined. Guan Xinyi and Liao Danyi launched their plan to pursue the "answers." She gave the answers from the water bottle to Liao Danyi, who then deduced that the true identity of the "answer source" was He Lvxi based on these answers, which were missing two questions!
Liao Danyi called He Lvxi to the rooftop and asked him why he did it. He Lvxi initially vehemently denied it, but with irrefutable evidence, he had no choice but to confess his true feelings. It turned out that he did all of this just for Guan Xinyi.
He grew up with Guan Xinyi and knew deeply that she always wanted to be first, so he simply distributed the answers to prevent those who got lucky or cheated from ever getting first place. However, Liao Danyi told him that as long as he was there, Guan Xinyi's score would never surpass his, because his academic performance was truly the best in Grade 1 of Maple Leaf Middle School.
He Lvxi's plan failed, and Huang Nan and Huang Yi's business of selling answers also came to an end. So from that day forward, all students who wanted to achieve good grades had to rely on their own efforts! Through this lesson, Ye Muqi, Huang Nan, and Huang Yi also "turned over a new leaf" and began to diligently work on their exercises.
Episode 15 Recap
This story takes place in the world of Qixiang Village: Guan Xinyi and He Lvxi, who had become little beggars in distress, stumbled into the territory of Qixiang Village. First, they met the witch Shen Wei. Shen Wei cast a fortune for each of them and gave them two copper coins. The two were already so hungry their chests were against their backs.
Just then, Xiong Tiancheng appeared, leading them to his study, saying that books were spiritual food and that if they read with him, they wouldn't be hungry. As a result, Guan Xinyi fainted from hunger. Leaving Xiong Tiancheng, the two then went to Huang Nan and Huang Yi's territory. The two gave them half a stick of crispy noodles. He Lvxi was ecstatic, holding the small stick of crispy noodles.
Xiong Tiancheng suddenly found Huang Nan and Huang Yi, saying he had a pen that needed their care. Huang Nan was shocked after taking the pen, because this pen was the treasure from ancient times that could command heroes – the Pen of Lost Virtue. Guan Xinyi stole the pen when the two were not paying attention. She immediately possessed supreme power. Radiant, she successively subdued Huang Nan and Huang Yi, Yuan Ke'er, Li Yao, Xiong Tiancheng, and Shen Wei.
After subduing everyone, Guan Xinyi also controlled them, making them slap each other. Just then, the Little Leaf Goddess Ye Muqi descended. She cast a spell to counter Guan Xinyi's Pen of Lost Virtue. Although this pen was the only one in the village, and if it was broken, they wouldn't be able to finish their homework, but for the safety of everyone, she still shattered the pen. Guan Xinyi then turned back into a little beggar.
In fact, all of the above were made-up stories by Ye Muqi, simply to explain to Liao Danyi why she hadn't done her homework and to borrow his homework to copy. Today was the school sports meet. Class 10 participated with an indifferent attitude, except for Cheng Ling's long-distance run. Because this was Cheng Ling's strong suit, they were confident that he would win the championship.
However, during the race, a Class 1 student disgustingly pushed Cheng Ling down, causing him to lose the race. Students rushed to the track. Li Yao even picked Cheng Ling up and carried him back to class. In fact, Guan Xinyi was unaware of this incident. She criticized the student who pushed Cheng Ling down, and said no more. Just then, Class 10 students, led by Ye Muqi, came to demand an explanation from her.
Guan Xinyi was initially in the wrong, but she stubbornly refused to admit her mistake. Ye Muqi was so angry she wanted to hit her, but luckily she was pulled away by other classmates. Therefore, Ye Muqi decided that Class 10 must win against Class 1 in this competition to really annoy Guan Xinyi. In the subsequent competitions, Xiong Tiancheng replaced Cheng Ling in the long-distance run.
To ensure his victory, Huang Nan and Huang Yi had previously given other athletes water mixed with laxatives. In the end, he successfully won the championship. Li Yao also bravely took first place in the shot put event. The most anticipated event was the four-person relay race. Ye Muqi, Liao Danyi, Xue Xiaodong, and Zhu Shanqi participated. Guan Xinyi and He Lvxi from Class 1 also signed up for this race. The relay race was in full swing.
Zhu Shanqi and Xue Xiaodong performed very well, neck and neck with their Class 1 opponents. Unfortunately, something went wrong with Liao Danyi's leg; he was tripped by He Lvxi. As a result, Guan Xinyi was a step ahead in the final leg. He struggled to hand the baton to Ye Muqi. He thought Ye Muqi would throw the baton aside and say she wouldn't abandon any classmate, then help him up and rush to the finish line, however. .
. Ye Muqi ignored him, took the baton, and ran. Ye Muqi chased fiercely, finally overtook Guan Xinyi, and won the championship. Class 10 students cheered and celebrated. Only Liao Danyi lay on the track, muttering to himself, "Who will help me up. . ."
Episode 16 Recap
Today, Ye Muqi, uncharacteristically, got up and dressed beautifully without her brother calling her. She rushed out of the house without even eating breakfast. Ye's brother felt something was up, so he secretly watched her from the window. To his surprise, he saw Liao Danyi waiting downstairs for his sister. The two walked out together. Ye's brother kept secretly following them, but his every move had long been known by Liao Danyi, so he was caught red-handed by the two.
Ye's brother first stammered out some nonsense, then called Liao Danyi aside, and, patting his hand, said sadly that he didn't expect this day to come so soon. From now on, Xiao Yezi would be entrusted to him. After saying this, he covered his face and ran away crying. It turned out he had misunderstood their relationship. Liao's grandma was resting in the nursing home when a middle-aged man walked in. He was Liao Danyi's father.
Liao's father stood in the corridor and saw Liao Danyi carrying fruit, about to enter the ward. After they chatted for a few moments, Liao Danyi went into the ward alone. As soon as his grandma saw him, she asked, "Where's your father?" Liao Danyi had no choice but to truthfully tell her that his father had left due to an urgent matter. His grandma was a bit sad but still pretended to be indifferent.
Just then, Ye Muqi also walked in. His grandma was delighted to see her, doting on her immensely in front of Liao Danyi. At school, Teacher Wu and Teacher Luo were arguing. Teacher Wu was excellent in every aspect, fully qualified to choose the best class, but he specifically chose the worst class, Class Ten. Teacher Wu said that leading an excellent class was boring; it was much more interesting to turn a poor class into an excellent one.
In the hospital, grandma insisted on eating cake and not taking her medicine. Ye Muqi sided with grandma. The two of them made a fuss for a long time, but Liao Danyi just wouldn't agree. Finally, Liao Danyi had to call Ye Muqi out and discuss with her about getting grandma to take her medicine. He took out a cake, sprinkled the medicine powder on it, and asked Ye Muqi to coax grandma into eating it.
Grandma not only happily accepted the cake but also asked Ye Muqi to buy her another cup of milk tea. Regardless, Liao Danyi and Ye Muqi finally resolved the matter. That day, Liao's grandma was missing again. Liao Danyi asked his father to look for her at the beach, but Liao's father simply didn't believe him. Meanwhile, Ye Muqi went straight to the beach, and grandma was indeed there.
Ye Muqi knew that grandma was very ill, so she stayed with her, chatted with her, and listened to her tell stories. Suddenly, grandma said she wanted to hear a story from Ye Muqi, so Ye Muqi told her the story of Snow White. Grandma rested her head on Ye Muqi's shoulder and fell into a deep sleep. It wasn't until the sun set and night fell that Liao Danyi and his father arrived at the beach.
Liao's father was quite fierce. He angrily questioned Ye Muqi why she didn't inform them immediately after finding grandma. Ye Muqi could only explain that it was grandma's wish, but Liao's father was still very angry, telling her to stay away from the Liao family in the future. He took Liao Danyi away, leaving Ye Muqi alone on the roadside with reddened eyes. A few weeks later, grandma passed away in her sleep. Ye Muqi missed grandma very much.
She recalled the bizarre stories grandma used to tell, grandma's photos, grandma's trunk. . . but she would never see grandma again. Liao Danyi remained immersed in grief, but Liao's father didn't understand him. He questioned how Liao Danyi ended up in Class Ten and wanted him to transfer classes. Liao Danyi naturally disagreed. Liao's father also saw that it was for Ye Muqi's sake, so he bluntly told Danyi that he really disliked Ye Muqi.
He still blamed Ye Muqi for not informing him of grandma's whereabouts that day, and even wanted to hold her accountable. Then, he changed his tone, saying that if Liao Danyi stayed away from Ye Muqi and agreed to transfer classes, he wouldn't pursue the matter. Liao Danyi fell silent. The next day, Liao Danyi packed his schoolbag and transferred to Class One.
Episode 17 Recap
Guan Xinyi was preparing for Liao Danyi's transfer to Class One. He Lvxi tried every means to obstruct her, speaking ill of Liao Danyi in various ways, but Guan Xinyi turned a deaf ear. Finally, He Lvxi, who had always been subservient in front of Guan Xinyi, exploded. He liked Guan Xinyi so much, but she had never cared about him. This time, he told Guan Xinyi that he disliked anyone she valued.
After saying this, he ignored Guan Xinyi and turned to leave. Class Ten, usually full of joy, was also engulfed in the sadness of parting. The students were very reluctant to see Liao Danyi go. They suggested holding a farewell party, considering it a celebration of their year of friendship. Ye Muqi also raised both hands in agreement.
She pretended to be indifferent, saying that Liao Danyi shouldn't attend the farewell party, and Class Ten would celebrate the departure of the "Great Demon King" by themselves. Teacher Wu also didn't want Liao Danyi to leave. He said that no matter what difficulties he encountered, all students in Class Ten would help him face them together, but Liao Danyi did not change his mind. In the classroom, Xue Xiaodong found Liao Danyi.
It was Liao Danyi who helped him report to Class Ten on time back then. He also couldn't understand why Liao Danyi was leaving so abruptly. On the way home from school, Liao Danyi and Ye Muqi met unexpectedly. He took out the three-year high school study plan he had specially made for Ye Muqi. Ye Muqi glanced at it coldly, saying she didn't need it, but felt extremely sad inside.
To prevent Liao Danyi from seeing her reddened eyes, she hurried away. Today was the day Liao Danyi transferred classes. He bid farewell to all Class Ten students from the podium, then walked out of the classroom without looking back. The class was silent, enveloped in an air of sadness. The homeroom teacher, Teacher Wu, walked in. He pretended everything was normal and asked the students to read the text, but he himself was also uneasy.
After class, Ye Muqi continued to be the class monitor, assigning tasks to students, but she always felt something was missing. Xue Xiaodong and Zhu Shanqi invited her to sing KTV, but she had no interest. During class and self-study, she looked at the empty seat beside her, feeling as if a piece had been carved out of her heart.
Finally, she could no longer bear it and rushed to the office to tell Teacher Wu that she no longer wanted to be the class monitor. Xue Xiaodong played and sang "Rocket Launcher," a song with lyrics written by Ye Muqi, and decided to perform it in the next day's program. His agent Annie found it incredible, but Xue Xiaodong said that there were some things he knew he absolutely had to do.
At night, Ye Muqi also found it difficult to sleep. She recalled the little moments with Liao Danyi: competing for class monitor, tracking classmates, participating in singing competitions, beach volleyball, visiting Grandma Liao. . . From childhood to now, the two had always bickered, and unknowingly, he had come to occupy such an important place in her heart. Ye's elder brother also noticed his sister's unusual behavior.
He specially came to school to visit Ye Muqi, but his words of comfort didn't have much effect. Ye Muqi was like a changed person, no longer so playful and boisterous. Every day, it was nothing but studying, yet she wasn't as happy or prone to smiling. The joyful "Little Yezi Goddess" seemed to have disappeared. The results of this monthly exam were announced. Liao Danyi was still first, and Ye Muqi surprisingly entered the top hundred, ranking 100th.
Huang Nan and Huang Yi were very happy for her. Everyone gathered around, cheering for her. At this moment, Guan Xinyi and He Lvxi walked over, their words full of sarcasm. Ye Muqi, contrary to her usual self, did not argue back. Instead, she lowered her head, remained silent, and hurried away. Xue Xiaodong took her hand and walked back in front of Guan Xinyi. He argued logically, rendering the proud and caustic Guan Xinyi speechless.
Xue Xiaodong took Ye Muqi for coffee. The two chatted casually. Ye Muqi said she also knew she had changed, no longer happy and joyful. Xue Xiaodong smiled and said he would definitely find a way to make her happy again.
Episode 18 (Ending) Recap
The students felt very uncomfortable looking at Liao Danyi's empty seat. Not only did they miss Liao Danyi, but more importantly, ever since Liao Danyi left, Ye Muqi seemed to have become a different person. Although she tried her best to pretend to be indifferent, all the students could see that she was hurting inside. So, the students unanimously decided to create an opportunity for the two of them to talk, and the plan would be arranged by everyone together.
The students decided that on Saturday, Zhu Shanqi would invite Ye Muqi to the amusement park, and Huang Nan and Huang Yi would invite Liao Danyi. Because there would be fewer tourists on Saturday, they planned to lure Ye Muqi to the Ferris wheel with snacks, and then trick Liao Danyi onto the Ferris wheel through a broadcast, so the two of them could be alone. Finally, the students would light beautiful fireworks.
When Saturday arrived, everything proceeded according to plan. Both of them came to the amusement park, and the students hid in the shadows, peeking. Suddenly, two patrolling security guards discovered that the Ferris wheel, which should have had no electricity, was brightly lit (because the students had secretly pushed up the circuit breaker). The two security guards chased Huang Nan and Huang Yi, but accidentally ignited the fireworks in the grass.
In an instant, the fireworks exploded in a dazzling display, and the scene quickly got out of control. Ye Muqi, unaware of the situation, was pursued by the security guards as the culprit. Liao Danyi was busy trying to save her, but in the end, both of them were caught and taken to the security office. The security guards mistook them for a young couple on a date and gave them a stern lecture.
As they lectured, the security guards themselves started arguing, bickering fiercely and refusing to back down. In fact, it was just a small matter; one security guard had unintentionally hurt the other with a remark. Ye Muqi and Liao Danyi together helped mediate between the two security guards. They gently and patiently persuaded them, causing the guards to lower their heads in silence and apologize to each other. Finally, the two security guards let Liao Danyi and Ye Muqi leave.
Liao Danyi had something on his mind. On a shaded path, he placed his hand on Ye Muqi's shoulder and told her everything: the reason he took one less exam to come to Class 10 was because he had promised to take care of her when they were children, and also that Xiaotian hadn't been caught and taken away, but he himself had adopted it. Ye Muqi was stunned. She was very touched but didn't know how to express it.
She simply grabbed Liao Danyi's collar and said that in the future, no matter what happened, he was not allowed to hide anything from her again; they could face it together! Liao Danyi quietly looked at Ye Muqi, his face involuntarily drawing closer and closer. Just at this critical moment, the Class 10 students swarmed them! The students cheered for their reconciliation, and they decided to go ride the Ferris wheel together to celebrate.
Just then, Huang Nan, who was always mischievous, actually confessed to Shen Wei, but unfortunately, before he could finish his words, he was mercilessly dragged away by his younger brother. In the classroom, Guan Xinyi was silently shedding tears. He Lvxi walked in and quietly stayed with her, hoping she would cheer up. However, Guan Xinyi retorted sharply, but He Lvxi didn't get angry.
He took out snacks, paper cranes, and a water cup—all things Guan Xinyi had mentioned and liked, which he had silently kept in mind. Guan Xinyi felt a mix of emotions; she hadn't expected He Lvxi to care about her to such an extent. After crying, she also understood, and the two exchanged smiles. All the students in Class 10 participated in a color run. They happily ran all the way from school to the beach.
Ye Muqi and Liao Danyi came to the reef where her grandmother often stayed. Liao Danyi said that he actually didn't like color runs, but some experiences are more wonderful when lived through than when merely observed. The two bathed in the sea breeze, enjoying the pleasant moment. On this day, Ye Muqi was lost in thought at her desk when Liao Danyi appeared at the entrance of Class 10 again, carrying his schoolbag. A classmate asked, "Didn't he transfer to Class 1?" Liao Danyi replied with a dominant and sharp tone, "I took one less exam for the transfer!"
