The coach told Lin Yifan that the reason Jing Qichi got injured was because he wanted so badly to stand out in this competition. The school team didn’t have a professional training system, so he had to train on his own, which led to constant injuries. The coach hoped that Lin Yifan would reconsider letting Jing Qichi pursue a career in football, as several teams had already shown interest in developing him.

Chen Huan'er brought some bone soup to the hospital to visit Jing Qichi. The once energetic Jing Qichi now looked somewhat dull. Qian Lina took Chen Huan'er to visit Lin Yifan, and Hao Mei came along as well. Lin Yifan wanted to give Jing Qichi a year off from school to allow him some time to recover. Chen Huan'er quickly spoke up, saying that she and Song Cong could tutor him after school.

After class, Chen Huan'er and Song Cong rushed to Jing Qichi’s hospital room, bringing books to help him catch up on his studies. Jing Qichi was disheartened, feeling like life had lost its meaning. After some time, it was finally the day for Jing Qichi to be discharged from the hospital. Chen Huan'er and Song Cong came to pick him up together. Chen Huan'er gave him a gift—tickets for the football league finals, which she had managed to get.

Jing Qichi had hoped that Lin Yifan would accompany him to the match, but Lin Yifan still didn’t support him. Jing Qichi began daily rehabilitation. When Chen Huan'er visited him, she saw the pain on his face and became worried. Jing Qichi realized that this situation wasn’t as simple as he had imagined. His body seemed to be out of his control. He started wondering if he should give up.

His parents had their own careers, and he didn’t want them to worry about him all the time. Jing Qichi, feeling helpless, asked Chen Huan'er and Song Cong not to visit anymore. He was focused solely on rehabilitation and didn’t want to distract them from their studies.

Chen Huan'er understood that Jing Qichi didn’t want them to see him in a vulnerable state because the pain from the rehabilitation and the words from the doctor kept reminding him of the harsh reality he had to face. To encourage him, Chen Huan'er researched every day, wanting to show Jing Qichi that it wasn’t too late to start over. Jing Qichi returned to school, still using crutches and walking with some difficulty.

Chen Huan'er specifically went to the school gate to pick him up. She shared with him evidence of football stars who had recovered from injuries, telling him that he could start fresh. Jing Qichi called out her name, and no matter how much time had passed, he would always remember that morning. Jing Qichi didn’t even know when he had fallen in love with football; it seemed that ever since he had memories, he had always loved playing.

After watching a football match with Jing Liqiang, Lin Yifan came to pick him up. Lin Yifan chose to support Jing Qichi’s dream, telling him that from now on, he could make his own decisions. Once Jing Qichi recovered, she would take him to visit the coach’s house. When Jing Liqiang was on a business trip, Jing Qichi found the match ticket that had fallen from Lin Yifan.

It turned out that Chen Huan'er had also given the ticket to Lin Yifan, but she had to attend a meeting that day, so she could only go after the meeting. Jing Qichi asked Chen Huan'er where she had gotten the ticket, and she truthfully answered that she had gotten it from the coach. Song Cong was called to a competition, so Chen Huan'er volunteered to ride her bike and take Jing Qichi to school.

After many days of rehabilitation, Jing Qichi’s injury finally healed. He would be able to attend the special training selection the next day and could once again race and joke around with Chen Huan'er. Seeing this, Song Cong couldn’t help but feel a little heartache. Song Cong went to a bookstore to buy some books, and as he was paying, Qi Qi helped him cover the cost.

Speaking of the past, Qi Qi admitted that she had been too stubborn, and Song Cong was the same. Qi Qi’s writing was good because she could express emotions that she couldn’t otherwise put into words. Qi Qi finally said, “I like you,” but her voice was drowned out by the noise around them, and Song Cong didn’t hear it. Qi Qi felt at peace with herself after that.

Chen Huan'er accompanied Jing Qichi to the special training selection and gave him the red string she had worn since childhood, wishing for his safety and success.
