Episode 29 recap: The sports event officially begins.
The competition enters its final match, the team snooker event. Lin Yi Yang takes the stage, and Yin Guo has specially prepared a piece of candy to celebrate with Lin Yi Yang. Lin Yi Yang's opponent is a player from the Indian team. With superior skills, Lin Yi Yang wins the match by a large margin, earning a point for the team snooker event. Meng Xiao Dong and Jiang Yang also make appearances to contribute to their respective countries' glory.
On their way to the airport, a fan who has been pursuing Yin Guo for many years appears. Worried that Lin Yi Yang would be upset, Yin Guo goes to Lin Yi Yang's room to comfort him. Coincidentally, Lin Yi Yang is in the shower, so Yin Guo waits until Lin Yi Yang finishes bathing before approaching him to offer comfort.
Lin Yi Yang proposes marriage, suggesting that once they are married, Yin Guo will have a family and no longer need to worry about others having feelings for him. Upon hearing Lin Yi Yang's proposal, Yin Guo feels a bit nervous because he is not mentally prepared for marriage yet. He is afraid to refuse, as he wants to be with Lin Yi Yang, but he doesn't know how to explain his feelings. Sensing Yin Guo's anxiety, Lin Yi Yang tactfully changes the subject without letting Yin Guo finish.
The competition officially begins, and the head coach cheers on the team members. Wu Qian, who is at home, does not watch the competition because she knows the capabilities of the players. She is certain that they will all perform well in the group stage, and she wants to watch the final match. Lin Yi Yang's exceptional skills secure the first gold medal for the Chinese team, while other team members also achieve excellent results.
Lin Yi Yang continues to win gold medals for the country in various events. During a break, Lin Yi Yang gives Yin Guo his nine-ball gold medal and encourages him to wait until the next day when Yin Guo will win the women's nine-ball gold medal and become a true nine-ball champion.
On the sixth day of the competition, it's time for Lin Yi Yang's strongest event, snooker, and his opponent is Meng Xiao Dong. However, Lin Yi Yang's shoulder injury affects his performance, giving Meng Xiao Dong an opportunity to win the gold medal in the individual snooker event, while Lin Yi Yang settles for the silver medal.
In Yin Guo's match, he also dominates his opponent with strong skills and wins the game. During lunchtime, Yin Guo is still worried about the impact of Lin Yi Yang's injury on future matches. Lin Lin and Yin Guo both advance to the finals of the six-ball event, with Lin Lin ultimately winning the gold medal and Yin Guo taking the silver medal.
The next day, the women's nine-ball final officially begins, and it is Yin Guo's strong suit. Yin Guo lives up to expectations and earns the gold medal in this event. The men's team snooker event is about to start, but Lin Yi Yang's arm injury affects his performance during the game, which angers many online spectators who criticize Lin Yi Yang. Upon seeing these contents online, Yin Guo becomes worried about Lin Yi Yang but doesn't tell him directly. Instead, Yin Guo silently comforts him.
At the beginning of the men's team snooker event, the Chinese team initially dominates the opponents with absolute strength. However, the opponents seize an opportunity during a small mistake made by Meng Xiao Dong and win two consecutive sets to level the score. As a result, both teams enter the decisive final match. Throughout the final, the scores remain close between the Chinese team and the Indian team, and the Indian team gives Lin Yi Yang increased pressure with their full effort.
During the match, the scores keep alternating between the two sides. In the end, the Indian team sets up a very tricky angle for Lin Yi Yang. However, despite the challenging angle, Lin Yi Yang manages to sink the ball and win the game. This victory secures the sixth gold medal for the Chinese team.
After the match, the three of them stand on the podium, listening to the national anthem and watching the national flag rise, feeling extremely proud.
I used to have no feelings towards Zhao Jin Mai, but after watching this drama, I really like her. She portrays the innocence and awkwardness of a girl's first crush and the desire to connect with someone so naturally.
When she smiles slightly, I, a girl myself, am truly overwhelmed by the sweetness. I have always liked Wu Lei, and I appreciate his vibrant and polite personality off-screen.
In the drama, I feel that his confession in the last episode was portrayed the best and most naturally. They are the epitome of youth, and the director really knows how to choose actors.
Fantastic!
