Episode 10 recap: Zhang Jun's attempt to get closer to Luo Qi Qi was met with rejection.
Li Jia Jie moved on from his heartbreak and quickly set new goals for himself. On that day, just as he brought someone into his office, thinking of joking around, he noticed Xu Xiao Bo and Luo Qi Qi looking at him through the window. At that moment, someone came in to find Li Jia Jie and informed him that two women were having a fight in the store.
Xu Xiao Bo, not wanting to disturb Li Jia Jie's conversation, took the initiative to go out and handle the situation. Luo Qi Qi followed suit. Feeling awkward about the whole situation, Li Jia Jie also ran out, only to discover that one of the women involved in the argument was Wang Yan, the same person who had slapped him in the park. Now, Wang Yan was being berated by another woman as a third party. Li Jia Jie couldn't help but sarcastically mock Wang Yan upon seeing her. Unexpectedly, Wang Yan was in such an embarrassing position. Wang Yan thought Li Jia Jie was simply a fool and didn't want to pay him any more attention as she left the store, leaving her bag behind on the seat. Xu Xiao Bo took the bag and returned it to Wang Yan, noticing the embarrassment of her worn-out heel. He offered to help find someone to fix her shoe, but Wang Yan didn't want to trouble Xu Xiao Bo and left, limping with one foot higher than the other.
Luo Qi Qi was reviewing the first-year curriculum. She knew her performance in science subjects was not good and hoped to catch up with the pace of the second year through hard work. Watching Xu Xiao Bo's serious demeanor, she worried that he was under too much pressure. She used a philosophical statement to console Xu Xiao Bo. Xu Xiao Bo understood Luo Qi Qi's intentions, and he had already adjusted his mindset to embrace the upcoming academic life. Xu Xiao Bo was the only repeating student in the class, and the teachers knew that his grades had always been stable but he had failed in the college entrance examination. They encouraged Xu Xiao Bo to maintain his state and believed that he could achieve good results.
Luo Qi Qi went swimming with Ge Xiao Fei. Just as they changed into their swimsuits and arrived at the pool, they ran into Ma Li. Ma Li was about to graduate and might have an internship at the foundry, where there were many wild rabbits. Ge Xiao Fei immediately became excited at the prospect and wanted to experience the joy of catching rabbits. Seeing Ge Xiao Fei's delighted smile, Ma Li couldn't help but feel happy as well and promised to welcome Ge Xiao Fei anytime. Zhang Jun was also at the swimming pool and his eyes lit up when he saw Luo Qi Qi. He wanted to talk to her, but Luo Qi Qi didn't pay him any attention. This left Zhang Jun somewhat puzzled, so he asked Luo Qi Qi why she had left early that day. Luo Qi Qi didn't want to continue the conversation and simply replied that she just wanted to go home, so she left first. She then moved to the other side of the pool, clearly indicating that she didn't want to engage with Zhang Jun. Zhang Jun had no choice but to give up.
During the first year of high school, due to weather conditions, military training was postponed and rescheduled for the second year. During the military training, Ge Xiao Fei was harassed by someone. Luo Qi Qi immediately stood up to protect Ge Xiao Fei, which made the boy unable to bear it. He forcefully pushed Luo Qi Qi. Zhang Jun happened to witness this scene but couldn't openly intervene. So, during the running exercise, he stepped heavily on the person's heel. The person got angry and argued with Zhang Jun, resulting in both of them being punished to run three laps. Luo Qi Qi knew that Zhang Jun had stood up for her, but when she saw the girl running with Zhang Jun, her mood couldn't be pleasant.
The school was selecting a group of outstanding senior students to participate in an exchange program in Xi'an. Xu Xiao Bo had good grades and came from a financially disadvantaged background, so the teacher strongly recommended him. However, Xu Xiao Bo was worried about his sick mother and was afraid to agree because she would have no one to take care of her. Luo Qi Qi was working on her homework when Li Jia Jie suddenly came in and wanted to take her out to have fun and introduce her to some friends from the society. Zhang Jun was sitting in the private room, and as soon as Luo Qi Qi saw him, she wanted to leave. However, she couldn't resist Li Jia Jie's plea for her to sing a song and help create a lively atmosphere. Zhang Jun selected the song "Wild Lilies Also Have Spring" and Luo Qi Qi couldn't refuse, so she had to start singing. Zhang Jun joined in and sang along, as if the lyrics were expressing their feelings. After reluctantly finishing the song, Luo Qi Qi went directly to work on her homework, but her emotions were in turmoil. Zhang Jun found an excuse to leave the private room and found Luo Qi Qi. Without saying a word, he pulled her along to go ice skating. Zhang Jun was very popular, and as soon as they finished a round at the ice rink, there were girls who wanted to get to know Zhang Jun. During the break, Luo Qi Qi asked Zhang Jun not to bother her anymore, but Zhang Jun insisted on being friends with her. Luo Qi Qi wasn't the type of girl who would follow Zhang Jun around just because he beckoned. She warned Zhang Jun not to bother her anymore, or else Xu Xiao Bo would break his leg. Afterward, she left.
When Ge Xiao Fei saw Wang Zheng returning on a motorcycle, she took the initiative to greet him. Unexpectedly, Wang Zheng asked her for money. Ge Xiao Fei gave him all the money she had, which was only eighteen yuan. When she learned that Wang Zheng was going to sing that new song at the newly opened karaoke club, her smile never faded from her face.
