[Adapted from the novel of the same
name by Zhu Yi on www.jjwxc.net]

[Nanwu University]

You're there?

Qian Fei and the guys

are making hot pot in the dorm tonight.

Anything you want to eat?

I can have them bring you some.

You're not answering, so
I'll take that as "whatever".

Thanks.

Your hometown

is in Yihe, right?

Yeah.

Why?

From here,

which direction is Yihe?

From the dorm window?

That way, I think.

That way?

[Yihe University]

It's been thirty-nine days
since I arrived in Yihe.

Autumn has set in.

The nights are cooler.

The sky is often clear.

Is Yihe's autumn

as hot as ours?

Pretty much.

But the sky is bluer.

Not like Nanwu,

where it's always gray.

No energy in the air.

My roommates

are all pretty nice.

Wen Yifan,

I can't sleep with this light on.

Sorry about that.

Thanks.

Why are you suddenly so interested in Yihe?

I'll take you there next time.

What are you looking at?

Planes.

Look.

There's a streak in the sky.

So sentimental for a science guy.

Maybe you should switch to liberal arts.

Some things...

once they happen,

never really go away.

[Episode 15]
[Marks]

[3,249 Days]

I get it.

You're saying

your friend spent the night

in a guy's arms.

And then that guy had the
nerve to say he was at a loss?

Is your friend really ugly or something?

She's okay-looking.

And that guy

even deliberately walk out shirtless

in front of her after taking a shower?

I just feel like

he probably did it on purpose.

So, I have a serious question.

That guy...

did he react?

Yifan, there you are.

What were you guys talking about?

Nothing.

You showed up at the perfect time.

Since you're young and full of energy,

I have a question for you.

No need to be shy.

It's not even about you.

If a girl were lying next to you,

would you react?

It depends on the girl.

- It depends? - I'm back!

Here, lady.

Thanks.

What's the topic? Let us in on it.

Good timing.

One of Yifan's friends

spent the night

in a guy's arms.

They literally just slept?

Nothing happened?

Yeah.

Just held each other?

Don't tell me it was Senior Sang Yan.

Yeah...

So that's what this is about.

I don't think we should be
gossiping behind people's backs.

Let's drop it.

Do you think

he mistook her for his girlfriend?

Or maybe an ex?

My ex-boyfriend did that to me before.

I think he was just trying to flirt,

but that's such a lame move,

so outdated.

Even I wouldn't stoop that low.

That doesn't make sense.

There was a whole person next to him.

Wouldn't he be scared half to death?

Either he has a girlfriend

and is used to someone being next to him...

Or he did it on purpose.

Maybe he just wanted
to take advantage of her.

Or he has some kind of body issue!

That would mean

not only does he not like her...

He might actually dislike her!

Yeah!

But to save face,

he had to act cool

and act funny.

Right.

That's all the time you
get to hug me tonight?

You're not exactly that eager...

to get with me.

Even if I can't control my sleepwalking,

with Sang Yan's personality,

if he truly hated it,

he wouldn't put up with it.

He probably would've moved out by now.

But what if...

Have you seen revenge dramas?

They always go like this.

First, he pretends to get close,

and acts like he cares about you.

Then, once you're in too deep,

he ruthlessly throws you away.

The perfect revenge.

Could it really be

because I hurt him in the past

and now he's using this to get back at me?

Do you really have to
stare at me like that?

Did I?

Want me to clean your room, too?

No, thanks.

No need to be polite.

Really?

No.

Deep down I know,

he's not that kind of person.

Here.

Why are you here?

No matter what happens...

I'll always be with you.

He should have anything he wants.

If you have no space to practice dancing,

then just make do here.

He's someone who shines so brightly.

If he...

wants something...

then he should have it.

♪ The answers of time... ♪

Even if it's the stars in the sky,

they should be brought down for him.

I never expected

the teacher to call our parents

over this.

Sang Yan...

Can you stop bothering me?

Wen Yifan...

am I really that bad?

I hate it

that every time I have
to come out and see you.

It's frustrating

that you keep coming to Beiyu for me.

So I chose a place

farther away from Beiyu than Nanwu.

When I go to Yihe,

I hope

you won't come looking for me again.

Sang Yan, you're a great person.

I was the one who hurted you.

♪ What was lost... ♪

Let him stay this way forever,

full of life.

It's better

if we never ran into each other again.

Sang Yan.

Are you asleep?

No.

No need to get up and open the door.

I just have a few things to say.

I've thought about it.

Given my current situation,

it's not really suitable for
me to have a roommate.

So...

I'll move out as soon as possible,

find a one-bedroom place,

and live alone.

That way, I won't be a bother to you.

I just wanted to inform you of my decision.

Get some rest.

And don't forget to lock the door.

I don't get it.

You're the one subletting
the place to Sang Yan.

You're technically the landlord.

So why are you the one
looking for a new place?

Shouldn't he be the one moving out?

He paid several months' rent upfront.

I can't ask him to leave.

Why not?

Because I sleepwalk.

I don't want to bother him.

Sleepwalking is one thing.

But we're talking about
first-come, first-served here.

You were there first.

Why should you be the one to move?

Are you satisfied with this place?

It's okay.

No!

It's not going to work.

The kitchen and bedroom
are basically connected.

The cooking fumes will get everywhere.

How am I supposed to sleep?

Also,

there are cracks on the walls.

The paint is ugly, too.

I can have someone repaint it for you.

I'm offering with full sincerity.

The rent is already super cheap.

If you like it,

just pay a deposit first.

This place is in high demand.

If you hesitate too long,
someone else will take it.

This apartment is so tiny.

And there's a construction
site right outside.

The noise would drive me insane.

It's not worth the original price.

Lower the rent.

That puts me in a tough spot.

In this area,

you won't find a place cheaper than this.

Go ask around if you don't believe me.

If this one won't do, I'll keep looking.

No.

I'll show you my utmost sincerity.

I'll give you a huge discount

on the agency fee.

What do you think?

Sounds good.

Hey, no.

We appreciate your sincerity,

but we still want to think it over.

Let's check out other options.

No.

Thanks.

Are you happy with it or not?

We'll keep looking.

The cost-performance
ratio is really high here.

Let's discuss it.

We're looking further.

Did you notify Sang Yan?

Notify what?

Don't you two notify each other

if you bring guests home?

It's fine.

You should notify, though.

What if he suddenly comes back?

He's on a business trip today.

He won't be home.

You should've said so earlier.

Why are there so many

pretty little night lights in your place?

And this padding strip?

Sang Yan put them up.

He was worried you'd
hurt yourself sleepwalking.

He's really considerate toward you.

That won't work.

Sleepwalkers don't respond to light.

You two really have no chance?

Forget it.

You must have your reasons.

But is just moving out

really the best idea?

At least it'd be better for him.

But yeah,

If you stay,

the guilt will only grow.

You see each other every day, after all.

Things from the past you want to forget

aren't so easy to erase.

Maybe moving out is for the best.

You won't dwell on the past anymore.

Go shower.

All right, I'm going.

Think it over.

Why is apartment hunting so exhausting?

Hello?

Miss Wen.

This is Cao from the agency.

Is this a good time to talk?

Yes.

I just wonder

if you've made a decision
about today's place.

We're still discussing it.

Could you tell me exactly

what's holding you back?

I can find more options

that suit your needs.

I don't even know what
I'm hesitating about.

All right.

Take your time.

But if you do want this place,

make sure to pay the deposit

by tomorrow night.

Otherwise, I'll have to
let another client take it.

Got it.

What are you looking at?

Why is there a white spot here?

After Lin left, that spot's been empty.

I haven't decided what to hang there yet.

I see.

I'll get you a nice painting next time.

Why bother if I'm moving out?

I kept thinking about it in the shower.

Do you really have to move?

Even if you two don't fall
for each other over time

or rekindle old feelings,

he hasn't treated you badly.

I think he's adapted pretty well.

Maybe he even likes your sleepwalking.

Honestly, he's been giving way to me a lot,

even covering more of the household costs.

Just like this mark on the wall,

a painting was here for so long,

and of course it left a trace.

He's holding onto the past.

Some marks deep down

will never fade.

It feels like you're talking about me.

That's why

I went all in haggling

with the agent today.

I want to buy you more time

so you wouldn't regret it later.

Thank you.

This apartment is great.

It's so spacious.

If it were me, I wouldn't move.

Unlike me,

I'm already this age

and still living with my
brother and two nieces.

Have you ever considered moving out?

Of course.

But every time I think of my mom,

I change my mind.

Why?

Look,

she wakes up at 5:30 every morning

to make breakfast for the whole family.

Then she spends the day

running the lottery shop.

By the time she gets home to rest,

it's already past midnight.

Her whole life

has been about taking care of others.

If I move out for real,

then all of this work

would be left to her alone.

She must be touched

that you stayed.

She has no idea.

She just thinks

I'm saving on rent.

You and your mom are the same,

saying one thing but meaning another,

complaining but still living for others.

Isn't that just life?

We're all running around nonstop

just to live for others

and make other people happy.

Why is it that people

are always trying to please others

but forget to be kind to themselves?

Shouldn't we first learn...

Shouldn't we first learn to love ourselves?

Dian.

Dian.

[Autumn]

Most cases start in childhood.

It gradually improves with age.

But in some cases,

sleepwalking is a late-onset condition.

Though the data is still insufficient.

How has your sleep quality been lately?

When work gets busy,

I might sleep less.

Here, sit.

You need to make sure

to maintain regular exercise

and a stable sleep schedule.

When you're sleep-deprived

or under excessive stress,

the chances of sleepwalking increase.

The main trigger is sudden stress.

Have you been under
a lot of pressure lately?

No.

Of course, you have.

Sang Yan.

That doesn't count as stress.

It does.

Do you live alone?

I have a roommate now.

That's good.

At least if anything dangerous happens,

there's someone to keep an eye on you.

Make sure you eat properly

and don't overwork yourself.

Ever since you moved in with Sang Yan,

your sleepwalking got worse.

Didn't it?

Seems like it.

But it's not that frequent.

In total...

five or six times.

So you're really affected by Sang Yan.

That's a lot of pressure.

He's not pressuring me.

Then is it work stress?

No.

So it's neither Sang Yan

nor work...

But aren't these the only
two things in your life?

What else is there?

I don't want to see

any of you ever again.

Look,

If you like this gentleman...

I'm your mother.

So my mother can just ignore my feelings?

I have an idea.

If you can't pinpoint the cause,

then just find a way

to relieve stress.

How?

Date someone.

If you don't want to develop
things with Sang Yan,

then go find

a new guy.

I can't.

You've never flirted before?

Then what's the point of having this face?

It's such a waste of a good look.

Just be a little more
playful with your words.

When he talks,

respond.

But make it seem like you're interested

without being too obvious.

Give me an example.

Start with casual conversation.

Once the topic gets deeper,

ask him about his zodiac sign.

Then based on that,

praise a few traits of his sign.

For example,

I personally like Cancers.

I think they're kind and attentive...

Wouldn't that be too obvious?

No way.

I can't do that.

I've never flirted either.

What is it?

I just saw Su Haoan's grandpa.

I'll go say hi.

Alright.

- I'm heading back to the TV station.
- Okay, bye.

- Say hi to Grandpa for me. - Will do.

Grandpa.

What are you doing here?

Hello.

Grandpa.

Are you here to see a doctor?

Which department?

Oh, right.

Which department am I here for?

Grandpa, if you haven't
finished your check-up,

how about I stay with you?

Okay.

But which department am I seeing?

Where's Uncle Ma?

Right, where's Ma?

Sir!

Ma, where did you go?

Sir,

I should be asking you that.

Where did you go?

I parked the car.

And when I went to the entrance,

you were gone.

This hospital is too big.

It's easy for Grandpa to get lost.

It's okay.

I'll stay with you.

No need.

Thank you.

It's fine. No need to be so polite.

Let's go see the doctor now.

See you later.

Bye, Qiao.

[Neurology Department]

Dr. Liu.

Have a seat.

Dr. Liu,

truly sorry.

[Dr. Liu Jianming]
I just found the patient.

He got lost earlier.

Next time, it's best to
have a family member

come with you.

I need to speak with them.

Ma is with me.

He is my family.

I meant your wife and grandson.

Didn't you say last time

that they're still around?

Do they know about your condition?

They know.

Hello? Su Haoan.

You won't believe this.

I just ran into Grandpa at the hospital.

I know.

Uncle Ma told me.

Do you know about Grandpa's health?

Of course I do.

Isn't it just a diabetes follow-up?

He's seeing a neurologist.

Grandpa,

you're back?

Grandpa?

Grandpa?

Grandpa?

Grandpa?

Mr. Su's cognitive decline

is progressing faster.

He is now in the early stages of dementia.

Then...

can this disease be cured?

Completely reversing it

is impossible.

But with timely treatment and intervention,

we can slow down its progression.

What you should focus on now

is how to support his treatment

and how to take care of him in the future.

Alzheimer's

doesn't just challenge the patient.

It challenges the family as well.

The symptoms were already there.

What was I even doing?

Don't blame yourself.

Didn't the doctor say

the early stage is just mild forgetfulness?

Even young people

forget things all the time.

It's really hard to notice.

And every case is different.

I've seen Grandpa so many times.

I still can't believe

he has Alzheimer's.

What do we do now?

What do I need to prepare? I have no clue.

Don't worry.

I know an old lady who treats
me like her own granddaughter.

And she's one of my long-time clients.

She has been taking care

of her husband with Alzheimer's

for over a decade.

We can ask her for advice.

Thanks.

I'll go talk to Grandpa now

that I already know everything.

See how things go.

Grandpa?

Grandpa?

Grandpa?

He's probably not home.

Uncle Ma.

Where's my grandpa?

Woodie...

passed away this morning.

Give Grandpa some time.

I may have picked up Woodie,

but Grandpa spent 16 years with him.

Aside from Grandma,

Woodie was probably
Grandpa's closest companion.

Everyone's on break
for the National Holiday,

and you're still working?

Aren't you on duty, too?

We work in news.

There are always big
stories during the holidays.

But...

I get a week off after Golden Week.

Then I'll take leave, too.

Let's go have some fun.

You're talking like you're my boyfriend.

Aren't I?

I like men.

How are things with Sang Yan?

We've both been super busy.

We barely even see each other at home.

What about the moving situation?

We haven't had a chance to talk.

And I've brought it up so many times,

but he doesn't seem to care.

Why are you laughing?

He's been crazy busy lately.

Su Haoan told me

his family has been setting
him up on blind dates.

Blind dates?

Yeah, he's been to several already.

It's kind of funny.

With his options, does
he even need blind dates?

Right.

I guess

since you're not rekindling anything,

he's in a hurry to find someone.

[Uptown Flower City]

I unconsciously ordered for two again.

What now?

You want some?

I thought you wouldn't
be back until tomorrow

from your business trip.

The work was simple.

I finished early and came back.

I ordered takeout.

I ordered too much.

Want to share?

I bought soup for myself.

You didn't drink my porridge,

but you want me to share your pizza?

I made porridge.

Help me finish it.

It's fine.

I'll just have cereal.

You really hold grudges.

I will...

I'll eat it next time.

Ask him his zodiac sign.

Then mention

something good about it.

I heard...

Capricorn men are super gentle

and very responsible...

What did the doctor say

about your sleepwalking?

The doctor told me

to keep a regular schedule

and manage stress.

Having a roommate

is the best.

So, basically...

you need me?

The doctor said

if I don't have a roommate,

I have to be extra careful.

So, are you still moving?

If I'm not bothering you...

Do you want to move?

Honestly...

not really.

Capricorn men

are indeed quite outstanding.

Auntie, please come in.

What brings you here?

I brought Kexin with me.

You two sit first.

I'm grabbing the laundry.

Auntie,

is this your first time
visiting Yan's place too?

Yes.

Auntie,

I hope I'm not intruding today.

Would Yan...

No worries.

What does Yan like to eat?

We'll take him out for
something nice later.

Sounds good.

Thank you.

Auntie, here.

Thanks.

Take your time chatting.

Auntie, have some water.

You drink it.

Kexin, stay here.

Okay.

What are you busy with?

I'm heating up food, Auntie.

Have we met before?

You look really familiar.

Yes, we have,

back in high school.

You kids are under so
much academic pressure.

Dating too early would
just be a distraction.

Do you really like her?

If you do, then hold on.

Wait until college.

You're the girl

who dated Yan in high school?

We weren't dating back then.

Let me tell you,

Yan has always been a rebellious kid.

He gave us plenty of headaches.

Since elementary school,

his grades were just average.

We pretty much gave up on him.

But then, out of nowhere,

he started working insanely hard.

And now...

you're his new roommate.

Are you free tomorrow?

We can go watch a movie together.

Yan has been out of college for years

and still hasn't had a girlfriend.

It worried us so much.

We even wondered

if it was because we didn't
let him date back then.

Why are you doing your own laundry?

Mom.

Auntie, you guys keep talking.

I'll head back to my room.

Okay.

Did that little brat spill the beans?

Sang Yan,

you're living with her,

a lady.

Did you tell Mom and Dad?

You've been off the radar for so long.

Of course, I had to check in.

Didn't I go on a business trip recently?

Kexin.

- Auntie. - Stay a little longer.

I need to talk to Yan.

Okay.

Just stay for a bit.

What's wrong with you?

Last time, you were set up with Miss Yu.

And then you just disappeared.

Her mother had to come looking for me,

and that's when I found out
you two never even kept in touch.

Tell me the truth.

You don't like her, do you?

Do you have someone else in mind?

Is it that girl who opened the door?

Is she your girlfriend?

Is she your girlfriend?

If she is...

Why is Auntie suddenly so excited?

I won't have to set you up

on blind dates anymore.

For now...

she's not.

Then do you like her?

You brat.

If you do, go after her.

You're a man.

Does Sang Yan like that girl?

All right.

You don't need to worry about me.

Then who else would I worry about?

Honestly.

Sounds like

Sang Yan really does have feelings for her.

Treat us to a meal, then.

No nonsense. Hurry up.

Come on.

Go change.

Get ready.

Something's burning.

She's so careless.

You two live together.

If there's a fire, it'll be a disaster.

Turn it off, quick.

Kexin,

let's go eat out later.

What do you want to eat?

Anything's fine, Auntie.

I'll go with whatever Sang Yan wants.

Have you eaten?

Eat with me.

You haven't eaten yet?

Not yet.

You're not eating?

You go ahead.

I'll take a shower first.

I reheated it.

Let's eat together later.

Didn't you say you'd shower first?

Food is best eaten while it's hot.

I wonder how his date went.

I know this might be a bit hard for you

to accept right now...

but please believe me.

I'm the one

who suits you best.

What's wrong?

You're not hungry?

Or do you want to ask

if my date went well?

No.

I just wanted to say

you've been dressing

a bit too revealing

lately in the common areas.

It's just normal clothes.

No inappropriate intent.

Are you afraid you can't control yourself?

I...

- I think it's fine.
- Can't you just control yourself?

I know.

I have a face

that makes people want to commit crimes.

But we're all adults.

Can't you have a little self-restraint?

When he talks,

you have to respond.

But don't be too obvious.

Keep it flirty.

I can't.

I'm afraid I might commit a crime.

Oh my gosh.

What did I just say?

How is this flirty?

No.

I just mean

you should be more mindful.

Wait.

Tell me.

What crime

are you afraid you'll commit?

Just...

I was just responding to you.

I actually really like Capricorns.

But I'm naturally quiet.
