I...

Why am I here?

Why don't you get changed first?

I have something to ask you.

It's important.

Let me get changed first.

Su Nian Qin.

I...

I still love you.

Do you love me?

Always.

I'm relieved you are still a crybaby.

I'm not.

Your bathrobe is loosened.

It's not.

Serves you right.

You just mock me instead of consoling me when you see me like this.

How should I console you?

Should I say that I'm just kidding?

That I actually don't like you?

You...

Why don't you put that effort into lyric-writing...

instead of teasing me all the time.

Let's go.

Oh, no. It's really loosened.

I'm just fooling with you.

I don't believe you.

I just want to verify if you are braver now.

So?

It was just right.

You don't have to go to the office?

Work here is done.

I'm going back to Xiamen tomorrow.

What?

(Nian Qin)

Hello?

You are home?

I am at the office.

Why did you go to the office immediately?

I have to make up for lost time.

To get my wife back, work had been delayed a few days.

If you keep going on like this, I am hanging up.

Don't.

Call me at this hour every night.

You have been gone for three years.

You probably don't know that I am now a routineer.

I am hanging up.

Let me share you a playlist.

Didn't you say that listening to a song...

makes one feel the presence of the other person?

Once I send you the playlist, you will understand.

Okay.

Open it after I hang up.

Su Nian Qin. Are you embarrassed?

(You are Spring)

Nian Qin. What happened?

She is back.

I am sorry.

What's the matter?

You set up this dinner gathering but you turn up late.

We have to hold back our hunger.

I got stalled at the pedestrian street. I am really sorry.

There is no hurry.

Someone is not here yet.

Here he is.

Long time no see, Wu Yan.

Why do you look like you are here for a blind date?

Are you not going to introduce him to us?

This... this is my boyfriend.

Hi. I'm Sang Wu Yan's fiance, Su Nian Qin.

Nice to meet you, brother-in-law.

Why are you so tacky today?

Aren't you the classy Su?

Where's your classiness?

In that case, I will make a toast to you, Su Nian Qin.

This is a toast to my brother-in-law.

Don't try to stop me.

Okay.

But honey, you can't...

You drink, Wei Hao.

After I make a toast, you drink.

Then I will make a toast to my brother-in-law too.

No problem.

I will drink for him.

-We will leave now. -We will leave now.

-Goodbye. -Goodbye.

He can't even drink yet he still insisted.

What a great couple.

Wu Yan. Your ride is here.

Get in, Wu Yan.

I'll call this ride for you using my account.

I will go now.

You be good.

I am here. Where are you going?

Okay, okay.

Go back with me.

Wu Yan, you...

Let's leave this couple alone.

But...

Come in.

Here.

You...

Don't talk.

Hold on.

Go.

Be quiet. Be quiet now.

Be quiet.

What are you looking at?

You hid the photos, didn't you?

Where are they?

Stop it.

You removed all the photos?

No.

There's nothing here.

Su Nian Qin.

All these years, you sent someone to take photos of me.

Do you admit it?

What photos?

Those photos that Ms Xiao Lu obtained?

I never saw them.

I dare not do so.

I was afraid I would rush to you if I saw them.

That is why you couldn't recognised me back then.

I could.

Actually, I have practised it beforehand about what I should do.

But...

But, I saw you with my own eyes,

I chickened out.

You are lying.

You never saw my photos. How could you recognise me?

I remember your voice.

And also your smell.

Many times...

throughout the years,

because I can clearly feel you are gone,

I actually didn't feel like doing anything...

or wanting to live.

But I need to live on...

because I have responsibilities to fulfil.

Hence I could only tell myself to pretend that you never left.

That you were by my side, just in a different way.

I sound like a psycho,

don't I?

But this psycho loves me.

What can I do?

♪Dreams of a light year♪

♪Is as vast as the sadness♪

♪The earth is quiet♪

♪Like the eyes of the stars♪

♪I want to see clearly♪

♪Every expression on your face♪

♪This way it won't shatter♪

♪The heart♪

Wu Yan.

Wu Yan.

Wu Yan. What time is it? You had so much fun until you forgot your time?

Quick!

Cover yourself.

No, go back in. Cover yourself.

Oh, my goodness.

Why are you shouting at me early in the morning?

I only came back after my gathering ended at midnight.

I am so sleepy.

Let me sleep a little longer.

You're a grown-up now yet you still party so hard.

How can I not worry?

You are unbelievable.

I must be blinded.

Get up quick.

I am still drunk.

My head hurts.

Don't you always drink excessively?

How come you still get drunk so easily?

I need some clothes.

I can't wear this anymore.

Okay.

Let's see.

It fits you well.

You bought this for me?

Stop asking and get changed first.

Why are you taking off your clothes?

How should I get changed if I don't take off my clothes?

You've got a point.

I was too nervous.

Here you go. Quickly change into it.

Wu Yan.

Sang Wu Yan!

Wait. I...

You were fast in reaching out for help.

I am sorry, aunt.

It was my fault.

I didn't look after Wu Yan properly and allowed her drink so much last night.

That is not the main point.

I won't ask why you brought a man home for now.

Who is this man?

He is my boss.

How did it go? Did she get scolded?

You already got chased out from the house, of course she will get scolded.

Pity me.

What did I do wrong?

If it's not for my future,

I would have quit my job.

I heard that.

No, no.

Buddy.

Don't worry too much.

Regarding this hurdle of your mother-in-law,

steel yourself and just tough it out.

Wait a minute.

I remembered that you were the one who forced me to drink last night.

He is my ex-boyfriend.

You even came all the way to argue with me at that time.

Don't you remember?

Didn't you say that he was blind?

And that he was an orphan?

I had told you at that time. He is not an orphan.

He has a family.

Also, he got his sight back now.

So you lied to me?

I didn't lie to you, I...

This is a complicated matter.

It's also a long story to begin with.

But Mum, three years have passed.

You know that...

I still like him from the beginning till the end.

Maybe he is not within your standards.

But I've already decided to spend my life with him.

I am sorry, aunt.

It is my fault.

Mum, I'll see him off first.

I will talk to you later.

Go.

Quick.

Don't worry.

I will give you a call once I am done.

You should go back in.

They are taking forever to see each other off.

Who is this person?

Who is he to make Wu Yan lose her mind?

Aunt.

He's actually just a normal handsome guy.

And a little rich.

Handsome guy?

Both of you only care about looks.

Aunt. I feel wronged.

I am already married to Wei Hao.

How could you say that I only care looks?

What?

He is indeed...

quite good looking.

Just like Wu Yan's father back then.

Don't hide and make calls in the room.

Don't think I don't know what you are up to.

Got it. I won't call him.

Go to bed.

How did it go?

What do you mean?

It's nothing. She just nagged at me.

It's really nothing.

If she scolds me badly,

that means this matter is not that serious.

Think about this question instead.

Do you want to treat me to a movie tomorrow?

I said,

do you want to treat me to a movie tomorrow?

What movie do you want to watch?

You were the one who wanted to watch a movie last time.

You have not picked one yet?

In that case, start thinking about which movie we will start with tomorrow.

I almost forgot.

This was in my pocket the whole time.

Here you go.

The photos are still at my rented house.

Take this first.

Since you insisted on getting them from me last night...

and wouldn't let me go if I don't make a promise.

♪Every time I thought I would cry♪

♪When the light fades away♪

♪I search everywhere for the familiar voice♪

♪Slowly penetrating the tides and raindrops♪

♪Even though I try to carry on♪

♪And I leave my past behind♪

♪I feel like I can hear your breathing♪

♪And the night turns translucent♪

♪Be it the city or forest♪

♪A gloomy tranquillity♪

♪Lost in the midst♪

♪I close my eyes♪

♪But I see your silhouette♪

♪Forever shine for me♪

♪Unafraid even when faced with the unknown future♪

♪Because you're the only thing I think about♪

♪I only think about you♪

Have you been waiting for long?

It seems like the ice have already melted.

No.

Should I get you another one?

I don't feel like having cold drinks anyway.

Let's go watch a movie now.

Why are there just the two of us here?

What movie did you pick? Is the movie terrible?

That's why nobody came to watch it?

I booked the entire hall.

Alright, show's over.

You know, remember this one time, we...

Why are you looking at me?

Look at the screen.

Eyes on the screen.

Why did you fall asleep?

You didn't have enough sleep last night?

No.

It's too boring.

I actually prefer having you tell me what's going on.

(Mum)

Hello, Mum?

Put him on the phone.

If not, you are not allowed to go out next time.

I... Mum, please don't...

What are you doing?

Hello, aunt?

I am Nian Qin.

I will send her home on time. Don't worry.

Okay, goodbye.

That's it?

That's it.

I...

Where are we going now?

It's time to go home.

Where did your guts go?

Are you going to give in to my mother so quickly?

You should get going.

You still have a plane to catch later, right?

I will watch you go upstairs.

You should get going first.

Okay then.

Go on.

Nian Qin.

You were more attractive last time.

Right now,

you are a little clingy. That's boring.

I will get going now without turning back.

I don't have time to go over. I am so busy now.

Okay then.

We are grown-ups now.

Let's not do celebrations like those youngsters any more.

Okay?

Remember to take care of yourself.

Eat your meals on time.

Call me on time too.

Got it. I will hang up now.

Why are you here?

Why are you waiting out here?

It's cold. You should have waited somewhere else.

What if you catch a cold?

I did that on purpose to make your heart ache.

Madam,

my heart is already aching when you've done nothing at all.

Didn't you say that you were busy?

You lied to me on purpose?

I wanted to give you a surprise.

You were freezing in this cold weather just to give me a surprise?

If you'd told me earlier, I would have...

Su Nian Qin.

You are annoying sometimes.

You are dull and unromantic.

I don't even know why I fell for you.

You are right.

I still remember that someone wrote a letter to scold me on air.

That person must have hated me a lot.

What's more annoying is she can't help falling in love with me.

Do you really think that the world can only revolve around you?

Isn't that true?

You're so smug.

I am so hungry. What are we eating later?

Anything that you like.

I think there is a short circuit.

Don't be afraid.

Which floor are we at?

The elevator just moved for a while just now.

I bet we are at the third or fourth floor.

Nian Qin.

I am here.

I am afraid.

Don't be afraid.

The lift is under 24-hour camera surveillance.

Someone will come shortly.

But what if they fell asleep?

That won't happen.

Don't think too much.

Someone will be here anytime soon.

Previously,

I was in a similar situation like this with Cheng Yin.

Did you get out immediately?

At that time,

we...

Later on, we...

Wu Yan.

Look at me. I am here.

Don't be afraid.

Let's talk about something else.

What do you want to eat later?

I am craving for something very spicy.

No.

It is bad for your stomach.

I want tomato noodles with egg then.

Why?

Because when the weather is cold, my mother would make that for me.

Tomato noodles with egg.

When you take a few sips of the soup, you'll feel warm.

Okay.

I can satisfy this craving of yours.

Do you still remember the MP3 player that you gave me?

It contains a bunch of random stuff.

Yes.

Other than the recording of your reading novels,

there are also sounds of you shouting at me.

And also...

And also the song that you sang.

It was off pitch. Do you have to look so entertained?

You are annoying.

If you were to sing the demos for my songs previously,

no one would want them even if I pay them to take it.

The way you speak is still so offensive.

Do you want me to do a live concert now?

Sure.

I think the most appealing part...

of your singing is the true expression of emotions.

If the neighbours heard you sing,

they will be fighting over your concert tickets.

Then,

I might have to move to another place.

Su Nian Qin, you...

We're sorry. Sorry to disturb.

Don't leave your shoes everywhere.

Do I look like a sloppy person?

Okay, Young Master Su. How would I dare disobey you?

What are you doing?

I am making you tomato noodles with eggs.

You can cook?

It's impossible that you know how to cook.

Why is it impossible?

It smells so good.

It's hot.

Take your time.

You are still so impatient.

Why do you...

Of course.

You wouldn't remember it.

Help me tie up my hair.

Quick.

Nian Qin.

What do you think if...

I work as an anchor for the radio station in Xiamen?

What do you think?

What do you mean?

Do it if you want to.

Can't you answer me seriously?

Previously, my friends said that I am not a professional anchor.

The show I did in that small radio station didn't become a hit too.

Who told you that?

I think you should stop being friends with them.

I mean it.

They don't see the potential in you and don't even support your dreams.

Friends aren't like that.

What are you laughing at? Turn around.

Your hair is messy.

(East Lake Music Broadcast)

After you left, we continued to make a few more episodes.

But it didn't last long.

Firstly, we weren't well prepared.

Secondly,

we lack someone willing to put effort in.

It is quite a pity.

Actually, this is the show that I created.

I should be responsible for it.

That is why...

Xi, I want to come back.

I started to work as an anchor at that radio station...

after I graduated.

Why don't you look happy and excited for me?

I only know that someone is leaving again tomorrow.

This is for you.

The candy has melted because your palm is hot.

How did you learn to read these?

By reading them slowly.

After you left,

I told myself that...

I must achieve something impressive so that I can prove myself to your mother.

But when I started handling our family business,

I knew nothing about it.

I can't even understand what's written on the contracts.

I didn't know what I was doing and messed everything up.

Did your father give you an earful?

He is not afraid of losing money.

He was just worried that I'd quit.

He knows how stressful it is in this industry.

Later on, someone told me that drinking can relieve stress.

Who dare to fool you like that?

I will hunt him down.

You better not drink any more.

I can't do that.

I must be drunk tonight.

Why?

Why do you think so?

You...

Don't act like a spoiled child.

Focus on your work.

We will see each other and have fun during Chinese New Year.

What fun can we have during Chinese New Year?

You are on mute now.

Stop babbling. Go back to work.
