Qiyue confirmed that Rang is the culprit responsible for destroying the designs, and even more shockingly, Rang is in fact Meng’s brother! But why did Meng not mention anything?
It turns out Rang is Meng’s taboo, a past he never wanted to mention. Rang stayed with their mother after their parent’s divorce and the reason why he stirred up all these trouble is to gain the attention of the brother he idolized. However, Meng does not want to face Rang, as he thought that the reason his mother abandoned him and left with Rang instead is because he had accidentally hurt Rang when they were small boys. He also thought that this was the reason for his parent’s divorce, so Meng chose to cause hurt himself, to find an outlet for his anger by engaging in fights in school. After knowing their feelings, how would Qiyue help to solve their antagonism?
During a clash one day where Rang threatened to expose their relationship, the frail Rang suddenly fainted. Meng was more anxious than anyone, and they could see that in his heart, Rang is important to him. The two of them finally settled their differences and started afresh.
The designs by Meng, Yangping and the rest were not chosen by the organizers in the end. However, Christmas is a romantic occasion for couples, and Meng secretly surprised Qiyue with the Christmas tree she designed, and promised her happiness.
The inter-school basketball competition is approaching, but Meng and Yangping were absent from training. Qiyue found out from Lixiang that Meng took his ‘Devil’s Army’ to Rang’s school. Meng’s appearance gave Rang the courage to face up to the school bullies.
