Episode 3 recap: Hao Di persuaded Liang You Guang to return to the sports school, while Liang Bing Bing went to the sports school as a substitute teacher.
Zhou Yu was halfway through taking a shower when he heard a knocking on the door. He wrapped a towel around himself and went to open the door, but to his surprise, he saw Liang Bing Bing. Embarrassed, Zhou Yu quickly closed the door but then remembered that Liang Bing Bing was the girl he almost bumped into the other day, so he opened the door again. Liang Bing Bing felt extremely awkward seeing Zhou Yu half-naked and could only leave on her own.
Liang Bing Bing wanted to surprise Gao Feng because he hadn't returned her calls. She had to knock on the dormitory door, but she didn't expect to encounter this awkward situation, so she could only scold Gao Feng. Gao Feng promised to make it up to Liang Bing Bing and invited her for a meal. As Liang Bing Bing was leaving, she ran into Liang You Guang, who was talking to Hao Di, and her mood instantly plummeted.
When they were young, Liang You Guang was completely focused on swimming and didn't even pay attention when Liang Bing Bing fell ill and had a fever, causing her mother to be very angry. As a result, her mother took her away. Liang You Guang couldn't keep his wife and daughter, so he gave Liang Bing Bing his best gold medal to alleviate her longing for him.
Liang You Guang wanted to know about Zhou Yu's training situation, so Hao Di invited him to join the sports school to supervise Zhou Yu's training every day. During Zhou Yu's first training session at the sports school, he was criticized by Gu Luo for seeking speed above all else, which made him feel particularly uncomfortable. During a sports school meeting, Hao Di proposed the idea of dividing the teams into two groups for training, with Liang You Guang leading one group and Gu Luo leading the other, promoting growth through frequent competitions and sparring.
Gu Luo opposed Hao Di's idea, but Hao Di didn't give up. He not only tried to convince Gu Luo but also persistently sought the approval of the school principal, urging the principal to convene a school committee meeting to pass this proposal. Liang Bing Bing was called to the sports school temporarily to serve as the substitute English teacher. After reporting, she went to find Gao Feng. Before Liang Bing Bing could tell Gao Feng about the substitute teaching, she was hit by a ball thrown by Hu Jing Tian during training, directly wetting her clothes.
Zhou Yu only recognized Liang Bing Bing as a childhood friend when Gao Feng showed concern for her. However, after many years of not seeing each other, Zhou Yu still didn't muster the courage to approach Liang Bing Bing and say hello. Zhou Yu learned that Uncle Qiang's car had broken down, so he took leave to return and deliver preserved vegetables to Yu Min Yi. Upon seeing Zhou Yu's return, Yu Min Yi asked about the situation at the sports school. Zhou Yu honestly told Yu Min Yi about his discomfort with Coach Gu Luo's training methods, which were different from Liang You Guang's.
Yu Min Yi made Zhou Yu understand that strict teachers produce outstanding students. She advised Zhou Yu to adapt well and urged him to return to school early. However, when Zhou Yu returned to school, he encountered a pickpocket at the bus station. He directly confronted the thief, which caused him to miss the activities at the sports school and injure his leg. Zhou Yu didn't have the chance to explain himself, and his dormitory mates Wu Hao, Gao Feng, and Hu Jingguang were particularly angry with him, completely ignoring Zhou Yu. However, Zhou Yu didn't feel the need to explain.
During Liang Bing Bing's first English class, Zhou Yu realized that Liang Bing Bing was his English teacher. He felt awkward and kept his head down, but Liang Bing Bing still recognized him. After introducing herself, Liang Bing Bing asked Zhou Yu to introduce himself in English. Zhou Yu's English was not good, so he only introduced himself by name and mentioned that he was a swimming athlete from Zhejiang Province. He couldn't say much else. Liang Bing Bing asked Zhou Yu about his major, but he didn't understand. Gao Feng mocked him in Chinese, making Zhou Yu even more embarrassed.
Liang You Guang accepted the principal's invitation and decided to return to the sports school as a coach. It held his honors and his bittersweet memories. However, he didn't know that his daughter, Liang Bing Bing, was already working at the sports school. Zhou Yu arrived very late for swimming pool training and hadn't gotten into the right state when Gu Luo scolded him, accusing him of abandoning the race yesterday and not attending the training today. Before Zhou Yu could explain, Gu Luo jumped to the conclusion that he didn't want to train and wanted him to quit. Zhou Yu felt very aggrieved.
When Zhou Yu criticized Gu Luo's hasty judgment, Gu Luo unhappily called out Gao Feng and told Zhou Yu to speak up after winning against Gao Feng. Zhou Yu was indignant and requested to compete with Gao Feng. However, Gao Feng didn't consider him a worthy opponent and arrogantly took the stage. During the competition, Zhou Yu closely pursued Gao Feng, but due to his injured foot, he ultimately lost to Gao Feng and had to face punishment from Gu Luo upon coming ashore. Gu Luo realized his mistake when he saw Zhou Yu's injury and criticized himself for wrongly accusing Zhou Yu. He scolded Zhou Yu for not reporting the injury and told him to go to the medical room for treatment.
When Zhou Yu went to the medical room to treat his wound, he encountered Liang You Guang and learned that Liang You Guang had also returned to the sports school.
