01x08 - Episode 8

[Episode 8 Running away may be shameful, but it's useful]

Xiaoduo.

S... Senior.

What's wrong?

I... I dropped something. I'm looking for it.

It's like this, Xiaoduo.

I think I need to explain something to you.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

It's not your fault either.

You... You already know?

It's all over the campus hot topics now.

What campus hot topics? That's not it.

The situation is like this.

I think Black's manuscript...

It has copyright restrictions.

If I were to give it to you,

the publishing house would...

Senior, is it about this?

It's alright. I'll find another way.

Take care of yourself, okay?

Take care of myself?

This is very dangerous.

Well, Xiaoduo.

What did you mean by campus hot topics?

Go that way.

Bye-bye, bye-bye.

President, what's the arrangement for this meeting?

Let's wait until everyone is here, then I'll tell you all.

Senior, I'd like to ask for leave on behalf of Bai.

What's wrong with her?

She...

She's not feeling well.

Then let's begin.

I've called everyone here for this meeting

to discuss with you all

about the staffing arrangements

at the College Manga Exchange Conference.

Did Senior Yu refuse to give me the manuscript

because of the rumors?

Heaven.

[Live up to Promotion]

I've already made such a big promise.

If I can't get it, I'm doomed.

[Wish You Success]

Xiaoduo, are you alright?

I'm fine, it's okay.

Don't mind those rumors online

and definitely don't take them to heart.

They're saying such nasty things.

Senior,

as you saw,

I just went there with Yu Shubo that day.

And we happened to run into Su Yancheng.

I definitely believe you.

Thank you.

I want to go out for a walk.

Are you sure you'll be okay by yourself?

It's fine.

I'll just clear my head...

Take care then.

Then I'll be fine.

Don't come looking for me.

Let's stop here and go get something to eat. You've worked hard.

Let's go eat.

-Let’s go eat.
-I’m going too.

Lin Xiaomiao.

What is it, senior?

What's really going on with Bai Xiaoduo?

Actually, she's not really sick.

She's probably affected by today's hot topic on campus.

She's not in a good mood.

What hot topic?

You don't know?

Someone took photos of you and Bai Xiaoduo at the amusement park.

What's wrong with going out?

But there's also a photo of her with Yu Shubo

at the bottom of the dormitory building.

The two of them looked quite intimate.

This.

How is she now?

She must be feeling awful.

You and Yu Shubo are at the center of gossip at school.

Do you think Bai Xiaoduo can emerge unscathed

from the storm of gossip?

She might be hiding somewhere crying right now.

Yes, senior.

Bai is probably hiding now

and doesn't want to see anyone.

Alright, we're leaving now.

Don't overthink it.

Where are you?

Are you okay?



Is Junior Bai alright?

She should be fine.

After all, Bai is quite tough.

She's probably hiding out in her dorm room now.

That's good then.

Anyway, call us if you need anything.

Okay.

But senior,

weren't you being a bit too dramatic just now?

I feel like Su Yancheng was completely bewildered by what you said.

That blockhead Su Yancheng,

you've got to knock some sense into him.

The more serious you make things sound,

the more likely he is to understand

what he should do as a guy.

You really do know him best after all.

Su meeting me in this lifetime,

he truly has no regrets.

[Bai Xiaoduo]

[Yu Shufen]

Hello?

Su Yancheng.

To attend

the College Manga Exchange Conference as Black,

what do you think?

I think we should forget about it.

After all, the third season hasn't been released yet.

There's not much point in promoting it.

I figured as much.

I know I can't persuade you either.

Regarding the copyright issue of the manuscripts...

I understand what you mean,

but I'm afraid it's not possible this time.

Because the copyright for all your current manuscripts

belongs to our publishing house.

Let's not mention the one on the school wall before,

since it wasn't for profit.

But if it appears at the exchange conference,

it will have some commercial value.

The whole process would be quite complicated

and might even affect your activities.

So my suggestion is, no.

What about the discarded drafts?

As for the discarded drafts,

we won't interfere with those.

Alright, I got it.

Bai.

[All Wishes Come True]

Senior He Rui.

What's wrong? Hasn't Xiaoduo come back yet?

Yeah, she disappeared after class this morning.

We haven't been able to contact her all day.

I saw her in the dorm at noon today.

She probably wants some time alone.

But now she's nowhere to be found.

I hope nothing bad has happened.

Let's wait a bit longer.

Just a little longer.

Okay.

Sit down.

[In the Bloom of Youth]

Don't worry.



[Wolf Girl]

Miss.

Excuse me, Miss.

We're closing soon.

If you want to watch, come back tomorrow.

Excuse me.

It's okay.

[You have a new missed call]

[You have a new missed message]

[You have a new missed call]

[Where are you? Are you okay?]

[Bai, talk to me. I'm so worried about you.]

[Bai, are you okay? Where are you?]

It's okay, it's okay.

I'm reading comics in the café.

I'll be right in front of you soon.

[In the Bloom of Youth]

She replied.

It's okay, it's okay.

I'm reading comics in the café.

I'll be right there in front of you.

It's good that she is fine.

Now we don't have to worry anymore.

Oh my!

Black's manuscript.

Awesome, awesome!

Hello?

Are you still waiting for me at the Comic Club?

I'm coming right away.

[Press and speak]

Xiaomiao, I'll be back later.

Su Yancheng needs to see me urgently.

Thanks, Madam.

Xiaomiao, I'll be back later.

Su Yancheng needs to see me urgently.

Senior Su

must be looking for Bai

to discuss the College Manga Exchange Conference.

Oh, right, right, right.

I'll call Senior Xiao Yang back

to tell him that Bai has been found.

Senior Xiao Yang.

[Student Event Center]

Coming, coming.

Where did you find it?

Why does it look familiar?

What are you doing here?

What are you doing here?

I'm here to pick up something.

But thank you anyway,

for being willing to contribute it.

You don't look like you're in trouble.

I was feeling a bit unwell this afternoon,

but I'm better now.

When I'm feeling down,

I imagine myself as an orange.

Some people like oranges,

and some don't.

But that doesn't mean

oranges aren't a good fruit.

So it's okay.

I'm fine.

Alright.

This orange is almost eaten now.

Do you remember in Black's comic,

there's a chapter about

Miss Mole and Mr. Owl becoming friends

and being discovered by their own kind?

Do you recall that?

Of course.

Actually, the point of that story is

you shouldn't care about others' opinions.

After all, no one can be liked by everyone.

There's always someone to accompany you

resisting all the unkindness in this world.

If you're troubled,

you can tell me directly.

After all, I'm involved too.

I understand the reasoning,

but it's just hard to put into practice.

Those words are like shadows,

always chasing me from behind.

I can't shake them off.

So your solution is to avoid it,

to distance yourself?

Have you considered my...

Our feelings?

I just want this to blow over quickly.

What if it doesn't blow over?

Are we going to become strangers

because of these rumors?

Even if this doesn't blow over,

we can't become strangers.

You're right.

I can't be a coward.

Maybe everyone will forget about it tomorrow.

Can I temporarily

be an ostrich for a while longer?

Sure.

Then I'll join you,

and be an ostrich for a while too.

Why are you copying me?

What time is it now?

Could

the door be locked too?

[Man City University School of Medicine]

What should we do?

Is anyone there?

Oh no.

Right, I'll make a call.

It's turned off.

The battery is dead.

I'm doomed.

Staying out all night will get me in trouble.

The door is locked and our phones are dead.

We'll have to explain to the teacher tomorrow.

Here's a blanket.

It gets cold at night. Cover yourself with this.

Thank you.

I'll try to finish the poster for the exchange conference tonight.

You go to sleep first.

Good night.

Good night.

Why aren't you sleeping?

I'm not very sleepy either.

Besides, you're working here.

And I'm sleeping over there.

I feel a bit uncomfortable.

It's alright.

I'll finish this drawing soon.

It's fine. I'll learn from you.

It's okay.

It's fine.

I can sleep like this. Like this.

You can go ahead and draw.

Good morning, ma'am.

Morning.

Sorry.

Sorry.

I'm sorry.

Excuse the interruption.

Excuse me.

Excuse the interruption.

Take a look at this.

It barely passes, I guess.

[For Bai Xiaoduo and Su Yancheng's act of staying out overnight, the school]

[has issued a demerit warning to both individuals once in accordance with the student dormitory regulations]

[Man City University Dormitory Management Office Notice]

The disciplinary action came down so quickly.

We haven't even had a chance to explain to the teacher yet.

Go back to freshen up and get ready for class first. I'll explain the situation to the teacher after class.

We're here.

Head back to your nest, Ostrich One.

Thanks for bringing me back, Ostrich Two.

Bye-bye.

Back to the nest!

This is so intense!

Oh my god!

What?

What?

What are you talking about?

What?

The Bai and Cheng couple is so shippable!

Clearly, the Yu and Xiao couple is the one to ship, okay?

[Hot Comment]

Wait, what I'm seeing is

Bai Xiaoduo and Su Yancheng's photo together at the amusement park.

Look.

There's also a photo of Yu Shubo sending her back.

Ah.

So can someone explain to me

who she is actually with?

It's okay, it's okay, Bai.

Don't listen to their nonsense.

[Hot Comment]

She changes boyfriends more often than she changes clothes.

This kind of person deserves no sympathy at all.

This woman has some skills.

Su Yancheng in her left hand, Yu Shubo in her right.

A master of time management.

That's hilarious.

Isn't she the one who's two-timing?

Yes, yes, yes. A love scammer.

Are we going too far?

Is she really that kind of person?

How is it going too far?

The photos are proof. Seeing is believing.

Bai Xiaoduo is just a liar.

She wears the mask of a lively, cheerful, and carefree girl,

but deep down, she's a fake innocent.

She flirts with both sides,

sells her body,

and ensnares all the eligible men at school.

I saw her passing notes and

adding every guy on WeChat at the networking event.

She's quite the flirt.

It seems there was something like that.

She got hurt trying to save a classmate at the networking event.

I felt a bit sorry for her.

Why sympathize with her? Why feel sorry for a liar?
