Episode 12 recap: Xu Meng Yu proactively apologized and found her true self.
After the incident with Xu Meng Yu, Ma Yi Ming had been troubled and unwilling to interact with her. When Lan Jing Hui tried to talk to Ma Yi Ming, it seemed like Ma Yi Ming didn't even hear him, and he wouldn't pass the ball to Lan Jing Hui during basketball. One night, Ma Yi Ming privately met up with Xu Meng Yu and persuaded her not to transfer schools, but to bravely face the consequences, because everyone makes mistakes and you can't just run away after making one.
Xu Meng Yu didn't say anything at the time, but the next day she went to the broadcasting room on her own, openly admitted her mistake of plagiarizing, and gained everyone's understanding. When Xu Meng Yu came to the classroom, everyone was friendly and accepted her. Xu Meng Yu suddenly realized that taking that first step wasn't as difficult as she had imagined.
Lan Jing Hui stood up and explained in place of Xiao Xiao Hua, believing that the person who posted the notice was not Xiao Xiao Hua. If they opened the books given to the students and found the missing 35th page, the person who didn't have that page would be the one who posted the notice. Everyone started searching for that book to prove their innocence, but Xiao Xiao Hua stepped in to stop them, as she didn't want the other person to go through the same experience as her.
Xu Meng Yu also believed that the person behind it was not Xiao Xiao Hua, and she didn't blame the person who posted the notice, but rather felt that she should not have plagiarized in the first place. When school was over, Ma Yi Ming also caught up with Xiao Xiao Hua, apologized to her, and reconciled his friendship with Lan Jing Hui.
Xiao Xiao Hua also had a conversation with Xu Meng Yu on the rooftop, where Xu Meng Yu apologized to her. Xiao Xiao Hua felt that it's not as difficult as one might imagine to take that first courageous step, and the two of them smiled at each other, putting their differences aside.
On the way home from school, Ling Dong and Lan Jing Hui communicated with Xiao Xiao Hua, wondering why she didn't expose the culprit, as everyone might think Xiao Xiao Hua was being two-faced if she didn't. Xiao Xiao Hua felt that everyone has their own way of dealing with things, and the person might not have had malicious intent, but just didn't know how to bring it up. Lan Jing Hui and Ling Dong expressed understanding and said they would continue to support Xiao Xiao Hua.
Xu Meng Yu also wrote her thoughts on Weibo, feeling relaxed and finally freed from the cage that had confined her, enjoying the pleasant breeze on her face. Ma Yi Ming immediately left a message for Xu Meng Yu, hoping she would continue to do well.
When the students were doing exercises, the PE teacher announced that the basketball match would be held next week. The teacher asked the students to volunteer to host the match. Lan Jing Hui immediately raised his hand, but Ling Dong held his arm, hoping that Lan Jing Hui could review well. However, the teacher directly appointed Lan Jing Hui to host the match.
Lan Jing Hui and Bi Peng encountered each other again. Bi Peng mocked that Lan Jing Hui's team didn't have enough people, so they would definitely have to forfeit. Lan Jing Hui retorted that Bi Peng was smelly and should take a good shower, and Bi Peng even sniffed himself but didn't find anything wrong.
Lan Jing Hui started to rally some classmates to join the basketball team, but no one was willing - some had stomachaches, some pretended to be deaf and dumb. Lan Jing Hui then turned his attention to Ling Dong, who immediately said he couldn't play basketball. Lan Jing Hui kept teaching Ling Dong, but Ling Dong got up and left, with Lan Jing Hui chasing after him.
At night, when Ling Dong was studying with Xiao Xiao Hua and Lan Jing Hui, Lan Jing Hui refused to study, worrying about the lack of team members. Ling Dong asked Lan Jing Hui to memorize the vocabulary, promising to help him if he did.
The next day, Ling Dong and Lan Jing Hui found two classmates who had played basketball before - one gave Ling Dong his study notes, and the other drank a bottle of coke every day. Finally, the basketball team had enough members. Lan Jing Hui announced the formation of the basketball team, but the students were distracted by the news that another class had formed a boy band, with even Xiao Xiao Hua running out to see the handsome boys.
Lan Jing Hui was unhappy and dissatisfied. When he saw Ling Dong holding up his homework, he rushed over to study. The director then announced that those who failed three subjects in the previous exam could not participate in the basketball match, which dampened Lan Jing Hui's spirits.
