On the day the college entrance exam results were released, Chen Huan'er, Chen Lei, and Qian Lina sat in front of the computer. When they saw the score of 602, everyone sighed in relief. Chen Lei and Qian Lina immediately grabbed the college application handbook to discuss which school to apply to.

Qian Lina and Chen Lei clearly hoped that Chen Huan'er would apply to a university within the province, but Chen Huan'er wanted to apply to a school outside the province. Qian Lina then began to cry, saying she was afraid that Chen Huan'er would get into trouble living alone outside. Chen Huan'er was startled and could only promise to apply to An Da University. Jing Qichi hadn’t decided where to apply yet.

Song Cong, who could have applied to Beijing University, started to wonder if he should apply to An Da, as that would allow him to take care of his mother. Jing Qichi and Chen Huan'er both felt that Song Cong shouldn’t compromise like that; he had always been someone with his own ideas. They both advised him to think carefully. Song Cong went home to discuss it with Hao Mei.

Chen Huan'er and Jing Qichi planned to go on a trip during the summer. In fact, Jing Qichi’s score was much higher than hers. When Song Cong got home, he hesitated to talk about studying medicine, but Hao Mei had already made up her mind and wanted him to apply to Beijing University’s Medical School.

Hao Mei knew Song Cong wanted to study medicine and understood why he wanted to stay in Tianhe, but she didn’t want to be a burden to anyone. Lin Yifan took a hands-off approach to Jing Qichi’s college applications, trusting him. Li Tian really wanted to study English, but his father insisted he study a medical-related field to at least help pave his way. Chen Huan'er ultimately chose An Da University.

After much consideration, she realized it was the best fit. At that moment, everyone listened to their inner voice. Jing Qichi’s first choice was Beijing University, and his second choice was An Da University because Chen Huan'er had applied there. They all planned to hang out, but to their surprise, Jing Qichi had chosen a mountain hike as their outing. Chen Huan'er, Qi Qi, and Liao Xinyan walked up the mountain, panting and exhausted after a long while.

They had no strength left and could only call Jing Qichi to pick them up. Jing Qichi, Li Tian, and Song Cong were at a villa in the mountains, blowing up balloons, and none of them answered the phone. When they heard the sound of Chen Huan'er and the others opening the door, they quickly hid to surprise them. However, after hiking all day, the three girls were too tired and looked awful.

Liao Xinyan applied to Su Bei Medical University, Li Tian applied to Hu Da Medical University, Song Cong applied to Beijing University’s Medical School, Chen Huan'er applied to An Da’s Pharmacy program, and Jing Qichi applied to Beijing University’s Computer Science department. Chen Huan'er suddenly felt a little lost, as everyone was going so far away. Qi Qi brought a lot of DVDs for everyone to choose from.

Chen Huan'er volunteered to cook for everyone, though she felt a bit down inside. They decided to watch a horror movie, and Liao Xinyan kept leaning toward Jing Qichi, while Qi Qi kept her eyes on Song Cong. Jing Qichi went to the kitchen to check on Chen Huan'er, and then Liao Xinyan, Song Cong, and Qi Qi went to the kitchen one by one.

Chen Huan'er and Jing Qichi continued their usual playful banter, but this time, when they got close, their hearts raced and it was hard to ignore the feeling. Chen Huan'er prepared animal-shaped cookies to give to everyone. She was actually envious of how far away everyone would be going for university, but no matter how far, she hoped they would always be friends.

After having a bit to drink, Li Tian became uncontrollable and quickly figured out who liked whom among the group. Jing Qichi, however, was clueless and didn’t understand what he was talking about. Chen Huan'er and Qi Qi went outside to get some fresh air, and Song Cong dragged Jing Qichi along to join them. Song Cong asked Jing Qichi if he liked Chen Huan'er, which immediately sobered Jing Qichi up.

Qi Qi told Chen Huan'er that she liked Song Cong, which Chen Huan'er had already known, as her feelings were so obvious. Qi Qi wanted to know if Chen Huan'er’s feelings for Jing Qichi and Song Cong were the same. Chen Huan'er hesitated for a moment, then stubbornly said that her relationship with Song Cong was just like that of siblings. Meanwhile, Jing Qichi firmly denied liking Chen Huan'er, insisting they were just like brothers and sisters.

Without saying much, Song Cong went to find Chen Huan'er, and at that moment, Liao Xinyan went to find Jing Qichi. Song Cong wanted to talk to Chen Huan'er about something, so Qi Qi had to step aside. Song Cong confessed his feelings to Chen Huan'er, and Liao Xinyan also confessed her feelings to Jing Qichi. Now that the college entrance exam was over, Liao Xinyan asked Jing Qichi if he would be with her.

Chen Huan'er, caught off guard by Song Cong’s confession, didn’t know how to respond. She had always thought they were just friends, and she rejected him. Qi Qi’s heart was shattered. Jing Qichi didn’t respond to Liao Xinyan’s confession, and she ran out crying. Qi Qi asked Song Cong, if he liked Chen Huan'er, why did he write such a sentence in his book? Song Cong, heartbroken, said that it was something he wrote for a friend. That night was sleepless for everyone, except for Li Tian, who enjoyed a lively conversation with Shakespeare.
