''Et Cetera'' - Qian Zhenghao (Jefferson)

♫ There are sunny and cloudy days ♫

♫ Red and green lights, all the signals are waiting ♫

♫ The crowds are like a colony of ants ♫

♫ So small that it's hard to be identified ♫

♫ The crosswalk is like an intersection of
the stars and Milky Way ♫

♫ It's a good sign when the world slows down ♫

♫ A quilt surrounds the city walls ♫

♫ Who is the person racing with the tortoise and the hare? ♫

♫ My waiting for you is the most romantic process ♫

♫ Being crowned as the greatest lover in the universe ♫

♫ Waiting for time to click the shutter ♫

♫ Doing my best in my youth ♫

[Episode 17]

[A Passerby Theme Hotel]

So this is what Jiaxin meant by persuading.

I'm doomed. How will Zhou Xiaoshan see me now?

Qiu Jiaxin, what a bad idea!

There's nothing to be afraid of as I didn't plan anything bad.

Qiu Jianing, you were the one who made the mistake first.

You're here to apologize. Don't be afraid.

Zhou Xiaoshan,

I... don't know what Jiaxin said to you.

Today, I'm here today because I want to say

I'm sorry.

Zhou Xiaoshan.

Are you awake now?

How does it feel to be misunderstood?

My girlfriend misunderstood me as a corporate spy.

Now you can understand how that feels, too.

So you did this on purpose.

Zhou Xiaoshan!

- You're too bad!
- Okay, okay.

- Jianing!
- Do you know how bad I feel?

Okay, that's enough.

Then...

are we good now?

Yes. In this world, if I don't want you,

then I think no one will want you.

I will just treat it as an act of kindness. I forgive you.

♫ I forget about the lies, forget about whether it's true or not ♫

♫ I only remembered you cried and tried to be brave for me ♫

♫ All we have been through, ♫

♫ who is willing to let it go? ♫

♫ How many lonely thoughts would I have ♫

♫ if I haven't shared it with you? ♫

You said you wanted to tell me something earlier on our way back, what was it?

♫ But saying goodbye is taking so long ♫

Don't you know what I want to say?

♫ Letting the me in the dark to see the light for the very first time ♫

You're thinking too much.

Come here.

- What do you want to say?
- I downloaded a new game.

I want to play it with you.

- We're playing games?
- Yeah.

Okay. Then, I can play games with you,

but what happens if you lose?

Okay. Then, how do you plan on punishing me?

How about this?

Whoever loses the game will have their face painted.

Sure, who loses will have their face painted.

Let's go.

Let's start.

Jianing,

why do you drive so fast?

My controller is not working.

Is my controller broken?

You are good at this game.

Why are you going so fast?

Oh, I crashed.

I won! Yeah!

I lost because of my controller.

Bet is bet.

- Are you really going for it?
- Of course. You can wash it off.

- No, it's can't be washed off.
- No problem, if you can't wash it off, you can just go to work like that. Hurry!

No. You can't do it. You can't draw on my face.

Zhou Xiaoshan!

Y-You really thought I lost?

- I was going easy on you.
- Really?

- I wanted to make you happy.
- I don't care.

I am going to draw a Crayon Shin-Chan.
(T/N: a cartoon character)

♫ I want to be that everlasting light for you day and night ♫

♫ And tell you that my soul has been assimilated by you ♫

Jianing.

What a coincidence. Let's go together.

Okay.

Do you know that Zhou Xiaoshan's apartment

was full of a woman's laughter last night?

That kind of "haha".

It sounded sexy and charming.

It can't be Zhou Xiaoshan's girlfriend, right?

Does Zhou Xiaoshan have a girlfriend?

I'm not sure about that.

This Zhou Xiaoshan looks low-key

but brought his girlfriend to his apartment.

Last night, it must have been a fierce battle.

Jianing, why are you blushing?

I'm a bit hot.

Is it hot?

Could his girlfriend also work in our lab?

The more I think about it, the more likely it is.

But he's so busy with experiments. How does he have time to go on dates?

Then, who do you think it is?

I think...

Could it be Huo Siying from admin?

Why is it her?

She is curvy.

Let me tell you. For men like Zhou Xiaoshan

who look cold on the outside but are warm-hearted,

they like curvy women.

Morning.

Morning.

You look so happy. What are you talking about?

Not much. We're just talking about the type of girlfriend you would like.

Then, what kind of girlfriend do you think I'd like, Professor Qiu?

Chunran said that

a man who looks cold on the outside but is actually warm-hearted should like...

a curvy woman.

Curvy?

Mo Li.

Mo Li, it's been a few days now. I've been able to process what you told me last time.

Everyone's life is destined and we can't choose it ourselves.

I owe you an apology. I shouldn't have been suspicious of you.

You've been so nice to me. I don't want to lose you.

Do you think I treat you well?

These past few days, I've been reflecting on everything that's happened since I met you.

During class and after class, you take good care of me.

To me, you're like another older sister.

You made me feel very safe.

I should be the one apologizing to you. I shouldn't have hidden things from you.

Then... we've made up.

We've always been good.

Yeah, nothing major happened between us anyway.

Mo Li, let me tell you. You really don't need to worry about Qiu Jianing taking your brother away from you.

My sister is not the petty type.

Even though he is Qiu Jianing's boyfriend, he is still your beloved brother.

I am worried about what your sister thinks of me.

To be honest, Qiu Jianing and I don't have the same mother.

When I started to understand things, my mom started comparing me to her.

She wanted me to be more outstanding and intelligent than my sister, and someone who my dad liked more.

But no matter what I did, my mom still thought my dad liked Jianing more.

Once, I didn't do well with my final.

At the same time, Qiu Jianing won first place in a city-wide math competition.

My mom was so angry that she hit me.

So, you were quite pitiful too, right?

Yeah. Everyone said that.

But Qiu Jianing went straight to my mom and said that

she never thought that I took away our father from her.

In contrast, I became another person for her to love.

Mo Li, this is also what I want to say to you.

You don't need to worry about Qiu Jianing taking your brother away from you.

Contrary, you'll have one more sister and a good friend.

- Friend?
- Yes, me. Don't you want a friend as cute as me?

I'm telling you I'm useful.

If you have a cold, flu, or cough, you can come to me instead of a hospital.

And if you feel sad or even have complaints about Qiu Jianing, just come to me.

But no personal attacks.

Okay, the noodles have been cooked. Let's eat up.

It's quite fragrant.

Oh my god. It's pouring.

What should we do? Why don't we wait until the rain stops before going?

We can't. I have classes later.

Mo Li, you are too cute. I finally found your weakness.

You're usually not scared of anything.

Who knew you would be afraid of thunder.

- I am not afraid.
- You are lying. You were covering your ears a few times during the thunder.

No worries. I won't laugh at you.

I told you I'm not afraid.

Does it sound good?

When I was a kid, I was also afraid of thunder.

Later, I realized that listening to music during the thunder makes me not afraid of it.

Close your eyes.

Close your eyes.

Follow the music and imagine

blue skies, white clouds,

beach. Everything is well.

Mo Li.

Sorry.

You have strong hands. What were you thinking? The rain has stopped. Let's go.

The music sounds good.

Let's go.

Jiaxin, what's the name of that song you played today?

Moonlight. Isn't it nice?

I'm sorry, Mo Li is going home with me today.

That's right.

- If you need help with anything, just let me know.
- Thank you.

You are welcome, it's my pleasure.

When I was a kid I was also afraid of thunder.

Later, I realized that listening to music during the thunder makes me not afraid of it.

Now follow the music and imagine

blue skies, white clouds, beach. Everything is well.

After repeated experiments, we confirmed that the slow-release factor is effective.

Our formula is effective on all mice with cancer.

That's good. That's great, Jianing. Write up the report quickly.

I will coordinate with the clinical trial.

Right! Since the formula is effective, apply for a patent as soon as possible.

Okay. I still have something to discuss with you.

Tell me.

Can we change our password?

Why?

When conducting the last experiment, there was some unusual fluctuation in one set of cancer mice data.

- What do you mean?
- It could be experiment contamination. To be cautious,

we should change our password. Just in case.

It sounds good. Just proceed.

Sure.

Are you crazy? Why aren't you letting me go?

Go. Go ahead. Do you want me to send you there?

As soon as you leave, I'll delete your files.

How could you do this? It's our entire team's work.

I just don't like it that some people are trying to get married so quickly.

What has me getting married got to do with you? Are you crazy?

No big deal. Go. I'll delete it the moment you leave.

- Sister Jianing.
- Why are you so unreasonable?

Sister Ran wants to go on a blind date but Zhang Yu won't let her. And they got into a fight over it.

Chunran, are you going on a blind date?

She's going on a blind date. Why are you against it?

Sister Jianing, our team hasn't finished writing the report.

How could she let her personal life get in the way of her work?

What are you guys looking at? Get back to work.

Get back to work.

Come with me.

Jianing, I'm sorry. I'll definitely finish writing the report tonight.

Don't worry. The report isn't important.

I also didn't want to go, but this time, the blind date was introduced by my family.

My dad's health has always been not that great, so I thought I should go to make my parents happy.

I understand your situation.

But I want to tell you something.

Love is actually quite similar to scientific research.

Sometimes, you search so hard for the right one, but it's nowhere to be found.

But sometimes, it might be right behind you if you look back.

- I don't quite understand.
- What I'm trying to say is,

sometimes you should take a look at the people around you.

People around me? You mean those in our lab?

Sun Lei and Xiaoxiao are meant for each other.

Zhang and Wang are inseparable.

And Zhou Xiaoshan, he's as cold as a thousand-year-old iceberg.

- You've forgotten someone.
- Who?

- Zhang Yu.
- Zhang Yu?

Him? That won't work.

You think that he's always picking on you.

He looks down at me.

Do you really think so?

He might be quiet normally,

but he's quite proud because his parents are professors.

He's well educated. And he's okay looking.

Now that you mentioned this, I think he's quite a candidate.

How about you consider it?

No way. He's not for me. Stop fixing us up, Jianing.

- Why?
- I'm almost thirty.

My appearance... if you were to rate it, I'd be a 6 at most.

I'm from a small town. He'll never like someone like me.

Chunran, put aside the appearance. The point is, how do you think of him?

You're spot on. I really hate him.

We hate each other to the bone. No doubt.

Then, go and prepare for your blind date then.

- Then, Zhang Yu...
- I'll sort it out.

Livestream your blind date later this evening.

- What?
- We can give you some advice.

Okay. I'm leaving first.

- What do you think?
- I think it's possible for the two of them to get together.

Too bad that both of them are too proud.

It would be great if someone could push them both a bit.

You want to fix them up?

Let me tell you...

Good looks are everything. I'll definitely get you this time.

Fat Ran, you can do it.

[Metro, Longkang Road]

Don't leave after work.

Chunran said she would livestream her blind date.

Sure!

Why aren't you leaving Zhang Yu?

I suddenly remembered that I have to research some materials.

Tong Mo, how many times has Chunran gone on a blind date?

No more, no less. This is exactly the 101st one.

I remember Chunran once said

that if this last blind date fails, she's returning to her hometown. Right?

Good for me. I don't need to see her again.

[Grandma's House]

Daniel Wu, here I come.
(T/N: an actor famous of his good look)

Daniel Wu.

Daniel Wu.

I'm sorry for bothering you.

Hello, are you Li Chunran?

Dan... iel Wu?

Here, take a seat.

She said her future boyfriend was going to be Daniel Wu. Who would have expected such a bold and nasty man?

And now what?

- Right?
- His hairstyle is kind of unique, his head is quite bright.

Okay, let's get back to work.

Okay, just these dishes for now.

Okay.

So, you're He Wenxian?

I thought you were Daniel Wu when I saw your photo.

You're right. It was Daniel Wu.

How can you use a celebrity's photo as your own and send it to me?

I usually don't like taking photos.

And that one happened to look just like me, so I just used it.

It's quite like you?

Let's cut to the chase. Let me tell you this.

When the matchmaker told me about you,

I actually didn't want to come out to meet you.

Mr. He, you're quite straightforward.

Let me tell you. This is just one of my strengths.

Say, in this city,

I have an apartment and a car, and I have permanent residency.

And you?

Thirty years old?

You're not pretty or well off.

A-Are you all right?

Yeah.

I'm fine.

Mr. He, since you had to push yourself to meet me,

let's just forget it.

Don't be in such a rush to leave. Let me finish speaking.

I heard that 70% of a son's intelligence

is inherited from his mother.

When I think about my future son,

I definitely need to marry a well-educated woman.

How do you know you'll be having a son in the future?

To be honest with you,

as long as you're a man, you will like having a son.

I'm busy. I'm going to leave first.

Don't be in such a rush to leave. Where are you going?

Let me tell you. I think that once we get married,

you don't need to work anymore.

You'll stay home and... what does that call? Prepare for pregnancy.

They said your lab has radioactive stuff.

it's not good for the next generation.

You, once you have a son,

just stay at home and be a full-time housewife.

Mr. He, how could you make things up like that?

Let me tell you the truth. I think we're incompatible.

Don't look down on yourself.

Even though you're not perfect,

I still think we're quite compatible.

It's me who doesn't like you.

I don't like you!

Are you joking?

I have an apartment and a car, and I have permanent residency.

How could you not like me?

You know, they're right about you.

Women are so short-tempered and spoiled.

I think you being like this is really cute.

It's good.

You! What are you doing?!

I'm acting cute for you to see.

Pervert.

You!

- Hi, Mom.
- Chunran,

how did it go?

I just finished meeting him.

My dad and I both really like Xiao He.

If you can get together with him,

we can settle down in Jiangcheng.

Mom, I still want to see more.

See? What do you need to see?

The matchmaker told me that

Xiao He is very satisfied with your educational background.

He doesn't care about anything else.

You must seize this opportunity and get along with him.

Mom, how has my dad's health been recently?

I was just about to tell you about this.

Your dad, after hearing you were meeting up with Xiao He,

his blood pressure went down.

Mom, if there's nothing else I'm hanging up.

Okay. Okay.

When she comes back later,

don't say anything to her. Don't laugh at her. That won't be good.

You're back?

You're back, Sister Ran. How was it?

It was quite good.

It's great? It's really great?

You're back so early. I guess he didn't like you?

What do you know? He's really into me.

Dr. Li Chunran, have you misunderstood yourself?

Marriage to a woman is like being born for the second time. Be careful.

You'd better stay single than marrying just about anyone.

Zhang Yu, you're crossing the line.

What's that supposed to mean? What do you mean no one wants me?

I'm worried that no one will marry you.

- Say it again if you dare.
- Don't. Okay.

Save your energy for the blind dates. Don't waste your time arguing with me.

Zhang Yu, how did I offend you? You've been at odds with me ever since I joined the company.

I admit that I'm not pretty, I'm fat, and I have a big appetite. I also have a bad personality.

But even though I have so many weaknesses, which weakness of mine has offended you?

What right do you have to treat me this way?

Chunran, don't get angry.

- Zhang Yu is just joking around. He has no bad intentions.
- Jianing, you don't need to speak up for him.

I've had enough. You always say I'll go for anyone.

Do you think I'm willing to do that? I'm not like you.

You were born in a big city. Your parents are intellectual that they don't push you.

As for me. I'm thirty years old.

I'm thirty and still not married. In my hometown, they look down on us more than they look down on divorcees.

No one is looking down on you here.

- You are!
- I'm not!

Then, why are you always picking on me?

There're so many girls in the lab. But you keep making fun of me!

Why? Tell me. Why?

Chunran. Chunran.

That's enough. Don't be mad over such a small thing.

There's no need to be this angry.

- The report.
- What report? You don't have to submit it today.

Go back.

Her purse.

Sister Ran. Sister Ran.

Zhang Yu, come with me.

If you like someone, be direct with them.

What? Who do I like?

Do you think I can't see it?

Xiaoshan, you're saying I like Li Chunran?

I'm not crazy.

You've admitted it already.

I really don't like her. Why do you look at me like that?

I'm telling you, Zhang Yu.

A boy would bully another boy that he hates.

But on the contrary, he would bully a girl that he likes.

Even if the boy becomes a man, this still doesn't change.

We're both men, you can't fool me.

I just like fighting with her. I find it fun.

I don't like her.

Only you know whether you like her or not. Think about it carefully.

Don't wait for a day when you've thought through it, by then she's already gone.

Seize the day, understand?

Forget it. I'm done. I can't talk to you. Bye now.

How did it go?

He's still being stubborn.

Don't rush it. Give him some time. He'll understand eventually.

[Aoyoung Hospital]

Report regarding the application of Plan-O's clinical trial.

Plan-O?

Why does this name sound so familiar?

Do you remember now?

Isn't this my sister's project?

Master, what are you planning to do?

Plan-O is a good project. I think we can collaborate.

But the other day at the meeting,

didn't we pick Norton already?

Qiu Jiaxin, since when did you have a say about the seniors' matters?

Why do you brag about it? Sooner or later,

"The waves behind ride on the ones before,"

I'll excel you.

[Report regarding the application of Plan-O's clinical trial]

All right. That'll be all for today's meeting.

You may go back to work.

Director Chen, hang on. I'd like to discuss something with you.

Okay. Let's sit down and talk.

Okay.

Director Chen, I know that besides Norton,

Professor Wang Qitian's Plan-O also applied for cooperation with our department in a clinical trial.

Yes.

I know that you have picked Norton.

Do you have a different opinion?

You've watched me grow up so I won't hide it from you.

Personally, I prefer Plan-O.

Norton's anticancer drug is the refined version of a mature drug.

They have a high success rate for their experiments.

Obviously, Plan-O stands no chance to compete with them.

I actually think that the disadvantage of Plan-O is exactly why we should choose it.

Tell me about it.

Plan-O's rationale is getting the target.

It only aims at the telomerase of the source of the cancer cells.

Exactly, that's a bold assumption.

They've reached the stage of animal experiments now.

From the materials I've received,

they've gotten great results on animals.

And an overseas team of Professor Harry is also doing research in the same area.

But they are behind Plan-O in research progress.

If Norton's drug succeeds,

it indeed provides patients with an alternative choice.

But if Plan-O makes it, it's going to be an epic innovation.

Xiao Qin, I understand what you mean, but I have doubts about Plan-O.

Director, there's another very crucial reason to pick Plan-O.

You see, Norton's drugs' price is appraised at

as high as four hundred to seven hundred thousand U.S. dollars.

Let's go with four hundred U.S. dollars.

It means every patient will have to pay

over ¥2,000,000 for this drug.

How many Chinese families can actually afford such an expensive drug?

However, Plan-O was aimed to be a commonly used anticancer drug.

Obviously, they want to save lives regardless of their wealth.

Xiao Qin, personally,

I couldn't agree with you more.

But in reality, the research fund Norton has provided us

is three times the amount Plan-O is offering.

Our colleagues might not agree with our choice.

I understand this, too.

How about this, Director Chen? Let me convince the other colleagues.

Meanwhile, I'll draft another report regarding Plan-O. How about that?

Okay then.

Thank you, Director Chen.

Where is he?

- Who?
- Old Qin.

I don't know. What's wrong?

He must be crazy.

Why is he crazy again?

He gave up the big fish Norton but chose to cooperate with Plan-O

for the clinical trial. Tell me! Is he crazy or not?

He has made the entire department furious now.

Why?

Norton has offered a research fund that's triple that of Plan-O.

Qin Bin can care as little as he likes about money. But others are not like him.

Did your sister trick him into this?

No way! My sister is not that kind of person.

Also, she hasn't seen my mentor in a long time.

That guy. He must've gone crazy for love.

Brother Yan, is it really that bad?

It's serious.

Director Chen will be promoted to vice president soon. His current position will be vacant.

There're only two vice directors in the Oncology Department. It's either Qin Bin or Vice Director Qian.

Your mentor had his advantages before, but now?

First, he's lost support from his peers.

If, I mean if, Plan-O fails, he'll become a pain in the butt for the superiors.

You tell me! Is he crazy to give up the cooperation with Norton?

Is it really that serious?

Go talk to him. Wake him up.

Okay.

Master, why are you here?

Yeah.

I've heard that you convinced Director Chen to turn down Norton,

and chose my sister's project instead.

Yes.

Brother Yan said this will impact your future career.

Don't listen to that nonsense. What is a future career?

It's all about power and wealth,

and being envied by others.

Master, this is a good thing, to love loyally.

But my sister is hotheaded for Zhou Xiaoshan now. You don't stand a chance.

Do you think I'm doing this because I still haven't gotten over your sister?

What else then?

Yes, I admit it. I still like your sister,

but I won't treat my work lightly because of relationship issues.

My father, my grandfather, and my great-grandfather,

all my ancestors have been doctors.

Actually, choosing to become a doctor wasn't a choice I made myself.

But now it seems that I'm meant to be a doctor.

Don't complain Master.

You don't know how many people want to be born into a household like yours.

Yes, and because of this,

I'm always anxious and scared I'll make a mistake.

As time goes by, I'll feel empty sometimes.

Every day I'm busy, but once I get home and relax,

I don't know what I'm busy with, it doesn't feel right.

You are not tired enough.

It's not that I'm not tired enough. Jiaxin, let me tell you.

Ever since I met your sister, I realized something.

I have never really considered

me being a doctor,

or what my goal and my motive should be.

Making money? No.

Is it to come to the hospital every day to prescribe medicine for patients? No, that's not it either.

Is it to make sure I have a good reputation? No, definitely not.

Look at those patients.

They're suffering from pain and torture from different illnesses every day.

How can we be just satisfied with what we have?

How can we stop moving forward? There're so many diseases out there that are not curable.

We should bring them hope.

That's why I chose to cooperate with Plan-O.

I want to bring hope to my patients.

I want to devote my little help

to the improvement of mankind.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Don't you think I'm great?

I'm telling you. I'm always this great. I just don't talk about it.

Master, I think you—

You can praise me however you want now. Use whatever words you like.

Dr. Qin, you're the greatest animal I've seen. Say whatever you want.

Master, I think you're quite shameless.

You made your selfish purpose sound so selfless.

You're really choosing not to praise your mentor?

I'm not praising you.

Silly kid. Come back! I promise not to hit you.

What is it?

I think I've started treating Qiu Jiaxin as a real friend.

Are you scared?

Mo Li, the moment you decided to step forward and approach her,

this ending was meant to be.

But I don't understand. Before I came here, I never did this.

You don't need to understand. You just need to relish the outcome.

To relish?

Yes. Relish the feeling of being a regular person,

and to have regular emotions.
