Left On Read (那年盛夏我們綻放如花)

Charlotte.

Charlotte, please cook dinner for me tonight.

Okay.

The summer holidays end in a few days.

There's 6 months left of Secondary 6 until the public exam.

Almost.

It's only 9:40am. You can make it.

I was transferred to this school 3 years ago.

Thanks to Billy, Wan and the other classmates,

I've had a wonderful time here.

Both Shek Hiu Yeung and his girlfriend Grace

do well academically.

He isn't approachable and she's outgoing.

I wonder what's kept them together for so long.

Yin!

Pretending not to see us?

No...

I feel hot. I can't wait to go up.

You do?

Yeah. - Right.

Morning. - Morning.

Why didn't you answer my call last night?

Went to bed early? - Yeah.

I've finished the book you lent me.

Dude, talk to her.

Shut up.

I've finished the book you lent me.

Let's talk about it on the phone tonight.

Let's not.

Come on. Just for a minute.

That's all I need.

Karmen Kwan

is a rich girl who always bothers me.

Billy finds her cute

but I find her annoying.

I want some me time. - I won't talk.

I'll just stay by the phone and...

Okay? - No.

Holding hands can get you pregnant!

Yin! - How about...

Why did you 2 come in together? - Yin!

Class monitress Elaine

was my first friend in this school.

We've been buddies ever since.

I get along with her

better than with my sister.

Yin! Didn't you see me? - Stop fooling around.

Are you ditching me?

Yin has a girlfriend now. He's ditching me.

You said you wanted a girlfriend.

Why not give her a chance?

No way.

I have high standards, unlike you.

What? It's true.

Karmen likes you but you like her... friend.

Keep your voice down!

What a shy boy you are.

Morning, everyone!

It's been a while. - Mr Chow!

Good to see you again. - Morning!

Morning, Mr Chow.

Morning. - Got a new girlfriend?

What does it have to do with you?

How about you? - Of course I have.

Mr Chow is our class teacher.

He teaches us Chinese and PE.

He's a great teacher who cares deeply about us.

Mr Chow,

you're handsome and funny. - Don't overdo it.

Mr Chow, Billy and Wan said they'd be late.

No need to be punctual during the holidays? Is that it?

At least they informed us.

That's not the point.

Where's Shek Hiu Yeung?

He's somewhere with Grace.

With Grace?

Elaine, please bring those 2 back here.

I asked you to come back here today to learn about your career plans

and your choice of university majors.

We'll go by register numbers, starting with Au Ka Shun. Okay?

Mr Chow!

Yes, Lai Chi Yung?

Can I go first?

I'm in a hurry.

Alright. You're next.

Decide who goes after you. - Okay.

Shut up, you idiot!

Hey!

No fighting. - We're just playing.

Be quiet.

Ka Shun.

Get lost!

I'm still here, you know.

Keep quiet.

You hit my bro. You're in trouble.

Come here and talk to me.

Nice throw!

I've had a crush on Chan Pui Shan for 3 years.

Since she's always with Karmen,

I don't get to spend time with her alone.

I'm shy around her.

Billy says he'll give you a hand.

Seize the chance.

Mind your own business.

Where's Mr Chow? - Next door.

We didn't need to take a taxi after all.

You paid, so all good.

Next time is on you.

Chairman!

What took you so long?

Didn't expect to see you 2 today.

Same goes for you.

Let's play basketball after school.

Yeah. - No, thanks.

I need to practise shooting.

You can do so while playing with us.

It's not the same.

How about bowling? To train your fingers.

I haven't bowled for a long time.

Sure. After basketball practice...

Let's go bowling.

Don't stand us up.

Let's go after practice. - Make sure you come.

Don't you stand us up. - I'll call you.

Okay, yeah. Go.

Reading porn?

It's a novel.

A novel? I thought it was porn.

It's a proper novel.

Okay, boy scout.

You pervert!

Fantasising about Yin's sister?

Anything wrong with it?

Yin isn't complaining.

Let me see.

Give it back.

I don't want everyone to know. - Honestly though.

What do you like about my sis?

Why don't you tell her how you feel?

Why don't you walk the talk yourself?

What are you talking about? - I agree.

What?

You are a coward.

A coward indeed. - Shut up.

She's looking at us.

Quiet. Keep your voice down!

Shut up!

Hey! Enough of your nonsense.

Go... - Shut up!

Karmen doesn't even look at me.

Please stop giving her false hope

by making Pui Shan your girlfriend.

What? You're crazy. - Yin!

Mr Chow says

you're next.

Okay.

Go for it! - Don't say anything unnecessary.

I said I'll help you. - Keep your mouth shut.

You can't run away forever!

Sit down. - Coward.

Coward!

Now, back to my video.

In all of Europe,

I like Greek cuisine the most.

They use simple cooking methods

like charcoal grilling and stewing

to bring out the natural flavours of the ingredients

while preserving the nutrients.

To introduce this food culture to Hong Kong,

I opened this restaurant.

Her family.

Isabelle, is there anything

you'd like to say to your family?

To my family...

Running this place by myself takes up a lot of time and energy.

I'd like to thank my daughter for her understanding

and support.

Come on.

You were late and didn't memorise your script.

Quit if your heart isn't in it.

Fine. I quit.

Don't... I was just kidding.

Stop using your phone all the time.

It eavesdrops, you know.

Are you crazy?

Don't be so paranoid.

I'm serious.

Modern phones are cunning.

Yin, while you haven't been active

in extra-curricular activities nor received any awards,

you've been in the top 3 academically every year.

You'll have no problem getting a place in university.

I'm not worried at all.

Hopefully. - You're too humble.

You want to major in Social Science?

I'm fine with it. My sis says it suits me.

I need to talk to Wan and Billy.

I want to go to the same university with them.

What about yourself?

What subject are you keen on?
