[A Beautiful Lie]

[Two Days Ago]

What are you eating?

Vitamins.

Here.

Give me one too.

You can't eat them.

Why are you being so stingy today?

Come on, just one!

No, really. You can't eat them. You'll gain weight.

Xing Zhizhi,

you think I don't have common sense?

Since when do vitamins make you gain weight?

Anyway, you can't have them.

These vitamins

aren't suitable for women—

only men.

Wow, Xing Zhizhi. Didn't expect this from you.

That's really not cool.

No, no,

that's not what I meant.

You...

[Episode 25] [I just don't want her to worry about me]

You are off work so early today?

Yes.

Wait a second.

Jasmine, cedarwood, bergamot,

with a hint of sandalwood.

You've got great taste, Dr. Xing.

But you don't even have this kind of cologne.

Today...

You don't need to explain.

I get it.

Alright.

What's wrong?

Feeling down?

No, I'm fine.

I've actually been meaning to ask you…

Ever since Li Changjiang's surgery,

your mood has been down.

Is it because of me?

Don't overthink it.

The surgery's fine.

I guess

I'm just a bit tired.

Maybe you need a break.

Will that help?

Yes.

How about this?

Let's go on a trip.

We haven't had a chance to go anywhere

since we got together.

Let's take a little vacation. What do you think?

All you think about is having fun.

What about all those books

you haven't read yet?

I'll study, of course.

But haven't you heard the saying?

All work and no play

makes Jack a dull boy.

Where do you want to go?

I want to go to Sanya and see the ocean.

Sounds good.

Dr. Yu.

The hospital gave you special approval

[Leave Application Form] The hospital gave you special approval

[Leave Application Form]

to fast-track your return to cardiothoracic surgery, [Leave Application Form]

to fast-track your return to cardiothoracic surgery,

And you're requesting

a six-month leave now?

Xing Zhizhi, what are you thinking?

I'll give you one last chance.

Tear up this application,

and we'll pretend nothing happened.

I'll give you three days off.

Come back on Monday to work in cardiothoracic surgery.

I've made up my mind.

Please, I'm begging you, okay?

We're already stretched so thin in the department—

everyone's doing double the work!

Help me out here, will you?

I'm planning to propose to Coffee later this year.

If you take time off,

I don't even know if I'll have time to get married!

Seriously,

my happiness depends on you.

Please.

Come here, come here.

Let's talk.

Come here, come here.

I have something to tell you.

I'm not finished yet.

Xing, we need you in cardiothoracic!

Don't you have any sense?

Let me ask you something—

don't you think

Xing Zhizhi's been acting a bit off lately?

How long have they

been together?

Three,

maybe four months?

Don't you think

And don't you think something's... strange?

What do you mean?

It's been months,

and he hasn't explained anything.

Super secretive, and now he's asking for extended leave?

Still don't get it.

Think about it—

Dr. Xing just came back to the cardiothoracic department,

pulled off an extremely difficult surgery,

and his career is about to take off.

Taking leave now?

That must be due to some unavoidable reason.

His career's fine, right?

So it must be family-related.

He and Qin Fei are doing great.

And just recently, Qin Fei

publicly announced she wasn't renewing her contract

and isn't taking on new roles.

It's like she doesn't plan to show up in the spotlight again.

If it's not pregnancy,

what else could it be?

That can't be possible, can it?

It's possible.

It must be.

If you look at the timing,

a six-month leave lines up perfectly—

just enough time to have a baby,

meet the parents,

throw a wedding.

Trust me, there's a lot coming.

Hello?

Hey, Coffee.

Qin Fei is pregnant.

Seriously?

Fei, Fei.

Don't mess up what I just ordered, okay?

I think I've got a talent for this.

Alright, alright.

Let me give it a try.

Not bad.

Pretty good.

How is it?

Isn't it a lot more freeing since you left the industry?

Yeah, I feel like before,

someone was always watching my every move.

Now,

I'm completely relaxed.

What about Xing Zhizhi?

Is anyone affecting his life?

Why would anyone bother him?

Do you know what people are saying online

about you quitting the industry?

No idea.

But I can take a guess.

They're probably saying

I sacrificed everything for my dreams,

or that I know how to let things go,

that I've moved on

without a care in the world.

Not that flattering.

So what are they saying?

Right now, they're calling you

a love-struck fool, brainwashed by Xing Zhizhi.

They say high-IQ types like him

are the best at brainwashing people.

You better keep an eye on him—

there are a lot of people curious about him now.

It could really mess with his life.

There's another rumor.

What is it?

They're saying Ms. Qin Fei is pregnant,

which is why you quit the industry so suddenly.

Honestly, isn't that great though?

Leaving the industry this way makes me feel even less burdened.

Let me know first if you do get pregnant, okay?

[Coffee]

Fei, are you pregnant?

How far along are you? Is it a boy or a girl?

So that's why

you rushed to leave the industry.

You've got big plans, huh?

When's the wedding?

Can you pull it off by the end of the year?

Oh, and can I be a bridesmaid?

Should I start losing weight

to fit into the dress?

Are you really pregnant?

-Hello? -I don't know.

Probably not, right?

Why are you asking me?

Hey, Fei.

You can tell from that?

Did you hear anything?

Outpatient

Xing,

how much do people usually give

for wedding gifts around here?

Do groomsmen need to give any?

I'm not too familiar with the customs here.

How would I know?

How could you not know?

How would I know?

I'm not getting married, so why would I know?

-You're not getting married? -No wedding?

Is it that you don't want to,

or is Qin Fei not letting you?

What does Qin Fei have to do with this?

What exactly do you want to know?

Zhizu.

Xing Zhizhi,

I just heard from an old friend at Hexi Hospital.

I'm gonna be an aunt?

Qin Fei's pregnant?

I'm right outside your hospital.

Come out

and tell me the truth.

What nonsense? Who's pregnant?

Who told you that?

Alright,

I'll be there in five minutes.

It wasn't me who said it—it was Meilan!

It wasn't me either.

I was just speculating.

It was Tian Qin who swore it was true!

No,

I said it

because they led me to...

I just went along with it...

I'll deal with you all later.

It wasn't me.

[Kiln-Roasted Coffee]

Not pregnant?

Really not.

Well, that was a false alarm.

Good thing we didn't tell Mom and Dad.

Hold on,

if she's not pregnant,

why did you take six months of leave?

Zhizu,

there's something

I want to tell you first.

Don't scare me.

There can't be anything more shocking

than Qin Fei being pregnant, right?

Take a look.

[Medical Records]

When did it happen?

Does Qin Fei know?

She knows some of it.

But I don't know

if I can tell her the full truth.

I'm afraid it'll worry her.

Zhizu,

please don't tell Mom and Dad for now.

Okay.

I respect your decision.

But if you can't handle it

on your own,

you must tell me.

Don't bear it alone.

You have to learn to ask the people around you for help.

I know, Zhizu.

I think

I can handle it.

Fei,

are you really not pregnant?

If you're craving something sweet or sour,

just quietly tell me, and I'll get it for you.

Ke Feifei, do you seriously have nothing better to do?

Have you arranged the costume

and acting coach for that new hire's audition yet?

Don't waste your time gossiping.

Fei, don't worry.

I've got everything sorted.

When can I go on vacation?

You really want to go on vacation, huh?

I'll enjoy it first.

You need to work hard.

I'm planning to

head to Sanya to see the sea,

and then maybe to Hokkaido to see the snow.

Alright, alright.

Fei, stop teasing me.

But your flight is at six.

Why hasn't Xing Zhizhi arrived yet?

He just sent me a message saying he finished work.

He should be here soon.

Why did he call you?

[Yu Zhecheng] Why did he call you?

[Yu Zhecheng]

Hello?

Xing was in a car accident.

What?

I don't know the details.

He's in the ER right now.

It seems there was a rear-end collision.

I'm heading over now.

Which hospital?

Fei, wait for me!

Xiaofei,

my phone is broken.

Are you hurt?

I'm fine. It's just...

My car hit the barrier,

and my hand got a little banged up.

Your hand is injured?

It's just a minor sprain. Nothing serious.

You scared me.

How did you end up in a rear-end collision?

Did you see who did it?

Did you call the police?

They sped off before I could see.

Really, I'm fine.

But our trip...

Forget the trip. As long as you're okay,

that's what matters.

I was on my way to the airport

when Xiaojia suddenly appeared

in the middle of the road.

I was going too fast to stop,

so I swerved

and hit the barrier.

After that, things are kind of a blur.

I vaguely remember

someone pulling me out,

and Xiaojia was there too.

Your condition is more serious than I thought.

Don't drive again after this.

You were planning a trip with Qin Fei, right?

Yes.

A trip might be a good idea.

A change of environment,

doing something fun,

could help your brain

break free from the past.

It might also ease

the hallucinations you've been experiencing.

How long will it take?

It's hard to say.

Stop thinking that it will get better

within a set time frame.

The less you expect,

the less disappointment you'll feel.

But I can guarantee

you will get better, little by little.

Why not give yourself

two months?

Let's see how it goes in two months.

What should I do

if after two months there's no improvement?

We'll need to consider

a more aggressive form of medication.

There may be some side effects.\

Can you tell me

what the side effects are?

Emotional numbness

and slower reactions.

These are possible,

but not certain.

Okay.

Two months.

If there's no progress

after that,

I'll consider medication.

Have you thought about how to tell your family?

I won't tell them for now.

What about Qin Fei?

If this method works, I won't need to tell her.

She just left the entertainment industry

and is preparing for her college entrance exams.

I don't want her to worry about me.

But

for this trip...

I'm planning to go alone.

From a professional perspective,

I don't recommend you take this risk alone.

But since you have a clear sense of self-awareness now,

maybe a change of the environment

could be good for you.

In any case,

no matter what happens,

you must tell me.

Thank you.

Are you

packing again?

Your hand seems fine.

We should go in the next couple of days.

Xiaofei,

I might not be able to

go to Sanya with you to see the ocean.

The hospital...

They want me to go to Australia

in a couple of days for an exchange program.

So suddenly?

How long will you be gone?

Two months.

Two months?

Isn't there anyone else in your department?

I don't want to be apart from you for that long.

Yeah,

the exchange was supposed to be

for Song Ningyu from Thoracic Surgery.

But his wife had a premature delivery,

so he can't go.

The hospital arranged for me instead.

They said since I just got back to Thoracic,

they want me to make a good impression.

I really have no choice.

Alright then.

Looks like the universe

is telling me to focus on studying for the college entrance exam.

But Australia is so far away.

That's in the Southern Hemisphere, right?

What's the latitude?

What's the climate like there?

It's probably a continental monsoon climate, right?

Let me check.

I'm worried it'll be too cold for you.

About me pretending to go to Australia,

don't tell anyone,

especially not Coffee.

Got it.

But have you decided where you're really going?

Not yet.

Xing,

are you sure everything's okay?

If you're hiding something from me,

I won't keep it secret.

If you want me

to stay in Thoracic,

you'd better keep your mouth shut.

I won't say a word, I swear.

How did you know I was back?

You even came down to meet me.

I'm not here to meet you.

Fei, how are you?

Nice to see you.

Who is this?

This is Frank.

His Chinese name is Fu Erkang.

He's my English tutor.

-Hey, bro... -I...

We don't greet people like this here.

You should start your lesson.

Come with me.

Okay.

You're ignoring me now?

What about me?

To buy

-a few... -Eggs.

A few eggs. Right.

A few.

If we want to compliment

someone's looks,

we usually think of the word "beautiful," right?

But in English,

there are many other ways to express it.

For example,

you are very easy on the eyes.

It means you are pleasant to look at.

And also,

You take

my breath away.

Focus on the pronunciation and intonation.

You take my breath away.

You take my breath away.

Very good.

Here's another one.

You're drop-dead gorgeous.

You're drop-dead gorgeous.

Good.

Drop-dead gorgeous.

By the way,

I want to ask,

if I want to compliment a guy,

someone like you, a muscular type,

how should I say it?

You can say,

he's a hunk.

He's a hunk.

Meaning he's strong and sexy.

Here.

Drink something to soothe your throat.

Thank you very much.

The restroom's over there, that way.

First door on your left.

Yes, yes, yes.

The door is open.

What did you give him to drink that made him react like that?

Ban sha herbal tea.

My colleague brought it back from Guangdong.

It's good for reducing internal heat.

I'm so sorry.

This is Chinese herbal tea.

It might be a bit bitter.

I cannot adapt to it at once.

Okay.

It's about time.

That's it for today's lesson.

Okay.

I'll see you out.

Take care. Come again.

This way.

Look at that, our Dr. Xing is getting jealous.

How cute!

I'm not jealous.

I'm very generous.

Is he

really a hunk?

He's not. You are.

What are you doing?

I'm your tutor, aren't I?

I've planned out

a two-month study schedule for you.

It'll save you a lot of money.

Just thinking about you leaving for two months

makes me really miss you.

I want to kiss you,

but I'm still upset about you standing me up.

So, I'll save it for later,

when you get back.

Well then,

let me kiss you.

♫You're the one♫

♫Longing for you to become the air I breathe♫

♫Thinking of you might give me the courage♫

♫To softly say that I miss you♫

Study hard. ♫To softly say that I miss you♫

♫To softly say that I miss you♫

I'll be back soon. ♫To softly say that I miss you♫

I'll be back soon.

♫You're the one♫

♫I want to hear you softly call my name, and I want to hold you♫

♫Feel my heartbeat sync with yours♫

♫When I think of you, I'm sure♫

[China Diamond]

Look, this one is quite nice.

Yes, it is beautiful.

It looks really good.

This one's pretty.

It has a unique design.

Let's keep looking.

Alright.

Isn't the ring Miss Luo is wearing

one of this year's limited editions?

That's right.

It's not available on the market.

It's most likely a gift from Mr. Chen.

Who knows.

This diamond is big enough. It suits you.

Yeah, not bad.

Mr. Wang, look.

Xiaoxiao,

long time no see.

You've become even more beautiful.

Mr. Wang.

This ring doesn't suit you.

Let's go to the display over there.

I'll pick one out for you.

Are you interested?

No need.

I always thought

you didn't like dating people like us.

But it seems I was being too conservative.

I've always liked you,

just never dared to pursue you.

If you think Chen Shen isn't right for you,

you can always come to me.

You want to shoot an ad or act in a movie?

I have the resources.

Whatever script you want to perform,

just choose.

Whatever director you like,

I can get them for you.

What do you think?

But you'll need to have a drink with me.

I drove here, so it's not convenient for me to drink.

No...

Mr. Wang.

Be careful.

No, no, no.

It's nothing, it's nothing.

Nothing to see here!

Xiaoxiao,

you don't have to drink alcohol.

But surely you can have a soft drink, right?

So many people are watching.

Don't you think I'd be embarrassed?

We have drinks here.

Please.

Drink up.

You can't

refuse me again, can you?

Good.

That's the spirit.

I'm sorry, Mr. Wang.

But let me make it clear again:

I really don't like you.

Sorry for making things awkward.

I have an event tomorrow,

so I'll take my leave.

Mr. Wang,

she's just a minor celebrity. Don't worry.

Don't worry.

She'll have her embarrassing moment soon enough.

What did you do?

I found out

she's allergic to mangoes.

Mr. Wang,

Are you following her?

Don't worry, sir.

I'm right on her tail.

The moment she gets out of the car,

I'll snap the photos.

Remember,

make sure you get her face,

and if her face is covered in rashes, even better.

Actresses care most about their looks, right?

Let's see how she goes on her show tomorrow.

Understood.

That's what you get for ignoring me.

Have I ever failed to win over a girl I've pursued?

My abilities speak for themselves.

[Emergency Call]

Hello, Xiaoxiao.

What's wrong?

Where are you? Speak slowly.

Hello?

Mr. Wang,

I've been waiting in the car for ages.

But Luo Xiaoxiao still hasn't gotten out.

Idiot! Use your head for once.

If she doesn't get out, why don't you go to her?

Okay, okay, I...

I got it, I got it.

Competing for the Title of National-Level Resort Area to Create a World-Class Huhai Vacation Destination

Xiaoxiao?

Xiaoxiao?

Xiaoxiao!

Open your mouth.

Speak.

Who sent you?

I'll talk.

I'll talk!

I'll tell you everything!

[Chen Shen]

Hello, Chen Shen.

Thanks for bringing me back last night.

I didn't scare you, did I?

What are you talking about?

I'm not in Huhai.

Weren't you at a jewelry gala last night?

You must have drunk too much.

Xiaoxiao.

Xiaoxiao?

Were you alright last night?

[Chen Shen] Were you alright last night?

Were you alright last night?

What time did you all wrap up?

[Liu Yanze] What time did you all wrap up?

[Liu Yanze]

I thought you went for a late-night snack [Liu Yanze]

I thought you went for a late-night snack

with Patty and the others.

But I called around,

and no one saw you.

Alright, I got it.

[Liu Yanze]

Xiaoxiao,

open your mouth

[Liu Yanze]

Sorry,

the number you've dialed is temporarily unavailable.

Please try again later.

Sorry,

the number you've dialed is temporarily unavailable.

Now, for a local update: [An explosion broke out in a local electronics factory and caused a fire] [Emergency rescue operation has started]

[An explosion broke out in a local electronics factory and caused a fire] [Emergency rescue operation has started]

just moments ago, an explosion and fire broke out [An explosion broke out in a local electronics factory and caused a fire] [Emergency rescue operation has started]

just moments ago, an explosion and fire broke out

at a local electronics factory.

The city's fire department and the Xiaoyun Rescue Team

were dispatched immediately to the scene.

Now, let's take a look at the footage from the scene.

About twenty minutes ago, the electronics factory

experienced an explosion and caught fire.

We can see that rescue efforts

are currently underway.

Fortunately, most people have been safely evacuated,

though some rescue workers have been injured.

This way, this way!

Take it slow.

Careful, careful!

Be careful, slow down!

Here.

[Xiaoyun Rescue] Here.

Alright, stop for a moment.

Drink this.

Aren't you leaving tomorrow?

Have you packed your luggage?

The five-grain powder in the fridge is almost finished.

This is a new batch I bought.

It has walnuts,

black beans, quinoa, chia seeds,

red dates, and yam.

Just take two scoops each day

and mix them with hot water.

It's good for your brain and memory.

Also,

stop staying up late.

You can't catch up in just a day or two.

And too many zero-calorie sweeteners are not great for your health.

That's why I added a little honey.

Stop eating takeout all the time.

If you're hungry,

I left some dumplings in the fridge.

Just heat them up.

Oh, and I reinforced

the flower rack on the balcony.

There's a typhoon coming,

and some of the old parts were getting loose, so it wasn't safe.

Don't spend too much time there.

Australia is only

two hours ahead of us.

If you don't understand something while studying,

feel free to call me anytime.

Why are you suddenly being so naggy?

Your house is so big,

but it feels empty when I'm here alone.

It's really boring.

Oh, right.

I heard that Australia often has

wildfires and dust storms.

The animals there run wild.

Be careful. Don't get eaten.

Where did you hear that?

My geography textbook.

The stuff that won't be on the exam.

You remember that stuff perfectly, huh?

Xing Zhizhi!

I need to take a call.

What's wrong?

Captain Liu got injured!

Liu Yanze?

What's the situation now?

A steel rod has penetrated the chest cavity and punctured the pleura,

causing hemopneumothorax.

He's already lost about 1,000 milliliters of blood.

Okay.

and there's fluid in the chest cavity.

The patient's vitals are stable.

Surgery can proceed.

Good.

[Difficult Case Discussion Protocol]

Director Ge.

What's the status?

Teacher.

About half an hour ago, the patient

was impaled by a steel rod that pierced the pleura,

causing hemopneumothorax.

His vitals are now stable,

and he's ready for surgery.

Notify the operating room.

I'll perform

this surgery.

Xiaoxiao,

here's the contract from the brand.

Take a look,

and if everything looks good,

I'll have legal run the process.

Everything looks fine.

I'll trust your judgment.

Alright.

Mei,

take the project to legal.

And, oh, wash the fruit

I bought this morning.

-You eat first. -Okay.

And the yogurt you like

is in the fridge. Help yourself.

Why did you hang up on me this morning?

What happened?

Nothing, really.

That's good.

You had me worried all morning.

This afternoon, we've scheduled a meeting with Director Zhang.

He's a director who takes his work very seriously,

doesn't like small talk,

and speaks quite bluntly.

But I've already checked around,

and his impression of you is pretty good.

Even if you're not planning on

taking a role for now,

you can still meet him to discuss

your understanding of the characters.

[An explosion at an electronics factory] [The fire is severe] [Captain of the Xiaoyun Rescue Team is critically injured and has been taken to the hospital] your understanding of the characters.

[An explosion at an electronics factory] [The fire is severe] [Captain of the Xiaoyun Rescue Team is critically injured and has been taken to the hospital]

This kind of discussion will help [An explosion at an electronics factory] [The fire is severe] [Captain of the Xiaoyun Rescue Team is critically injured and has been taken to the hospital]

This kind of discussion will help

your future creative work.

What's been going on with you lately?

You seem distracted.

Even if you're not my girlfriend anymore,

you're still my artist.

If something's going on, just tell me.

I need to go to the hospital.

Hello.

Where's the injured member of the Xiaoyun Rescue Team?

What's the name?

Liu Yanze.

Please wait. I'll check for you.

[Visitor Elevator]

Doctor.

[Operation Room] Doctor.

[Operation Room]

how is he? [Operation Room]

[Operation Room]

I'm sorry, we've done our best. [Operation Room]

I'm sorry, we've done our best.

Although the rescue was timely,

your teammate was too close

to the explosion site.

By the time he was brought here, he…

I'm sorry for your loss.

Doctor.

Please, isn't there anything else you can do?

Can't you try something?

Family of Liu Yanze?

[Operation Room]

[Operation Room]

How is he? [Operation Room]

[Operation Room]

The surgery went well. [Operation Room]

The surgery went well.

The director did it personally,

but he lost a lot of blood

and went into hemorrhagic shock.

He hasn't regained consciousness

and is still in critical condition.

He needs further observation.

Let's go.

[Operation Room]

Xing Zhizhi. [Operation Room]

[Operation Room]

Come here. [Operation Room]

[Operation Room]

[Huhai Hexi Hospital]

Why are you taking a long leave?

Since coming back

from Suman,

you told me you've been having spasms

whenever you step into the operating room.

For the sake of the patients,

I approved your transfer away from thoracic surgery.

But it's been a long time,

hasn't your condition stabilized?

Teacher,

it's gotten much better.

The nightmares, the catatonia, the palpitations—

each one has lessened,

and I haven't had an episode in a long time.

Except for Xiaojia…

Xiaojia?

That child in Suman?

Yes.

Every time my emotions get unstable,

he appears.

I thought I had it under control,

but now it feels like

it's slipping out of control again.

Is your condition getting worse?

It never got better.

I've just been lying to myself.

So,

you want to leave the hospital

and find a new environment?

Teacher,

I'm sorry.

I might not be able to

become a good doctor anymore.

From the day you entered medical school,

I've remembered you.

You were younger than everyone else

but smarter than all of them.

You've always been

the student I've been most proud of.

I'm sorry

to let you down this time.

Yeah.

You should've told me this a long time ago.

Then I wouldn't have let you carry this burden for so long.

Pull yourself together.

It's not time to give up yet.

I'll give you time

to bring back

my best student.
