Junxi.

[Episode 10: Love is a Secret You Can't Hide]

This atmosphere...

What am I supposed to do later?

[Secret Lover]

If you dare make fun of Tuo for not having a mom again,

I'll kick your butts!

Let's see if you dare do it again!

Tuo!

Tuo!

Tuo!

Finally found you.

I chased them all away.

From now on, just play with me.

Ignore them.

Maybe from that moment on,

I wanted to stay by his side...

to protect him.

Running away isn't protecting.

One lie leads to a hundred more.

And it hurts the one I want to cherish,

making him anxious and me uneasy.

Are you really in such a hurry?

What am I supposed to do later?

Junxi.

Dad, Mom...

We...

We've known for a long time.

Finally, you decided to tell us.

But I haven't said anything yet.

He hasn't?

Honey, didn't you hear him?

I was just following your lead.

Didn't we agree that

when Junxi came clean

about dating Tuo,

I was supposed to follow your lead?

Follow you.

So you've known all along?

And you also know

that Tuo and I are living together

not to save on rent,

but because we're dating?

Of course.

I know

you're both very mature for your age.

And you never give us any reason to worry.

Why are you crying?

You must have been worried we'd disapprove,

and it's been weighing on you for a long time, right?

I'm sorry.

I've been lying to you all this time.

I didn't know how to tell you

about my relationship with Tuo.

I was afraid it would upset you

and that you'd

be disappointed in us.

It's not his fault.

I asked Junxi to lie

to hide the fact that we're dating.

You didn't lie.

You just didn't tell us.

That's different from lying.

Besides,

you two didn't need to tell us.

We already knew.

Yeah, yeah.

Even without saying anything,

when you two are together,

it's obvious

that you only have eyes for each other.

Real feelings can't be hidden.

So all this time,

I was the only one in the family

who didn't know you two were dating?

To think I've been worried for nothing!

Mom, look.

I'm getting a bald spot!

Serves you right for running away from home!

You deserve it!

Serves you right!

Alright, alright, alright.

It's best if you go completely bald!

Go bald.

You deserve it.

You're serious about my brother, aren't you?

Why are you looking at me like that?

I can put on a sour face too.

Let's do it together then.

From the moment I realized I liked him,

all I wanted

was to be with him forever.

So you want to marry him?

Wherever he is,

that's my home.

This place too?

Then why are you making that face at me when I'm your family?

And you've been giving me that sour face since you were little.

Because when we were little, Junxi liked you more.

Of course.

He's my little brother.

Jealous much?

Does Junxi know about that?

Whatever happens,

I've got your back.

Kiddo!

Stay home for dinner tonight.

By the way,

when did you and Dad

find out that Tuo and I were together?

Around your freshman spring semester.

Right, honey?

I think so.

It was around the time when you dragged me to join some parenting class,

saying it'd help us understand our children better.

But...

Tuo and I didn't get together until sophomore year.

So we've been wrong all this time.

Well, son,

that means you already liked each other very much

before you started dating.

Otherwise,

how could we have misunderstood?

Auntie said that?

I only realized after my mom pointed it out

that I'd already liked you so much even back then.

Why is it so messy here?

Let's tidy up together.

How about we do it tomorrow?

I've missed you so much.

You just said you liked me.

Where is it?

How did it disappear?

What are you looking for?

Did I wake you?

Time to wake up anyway.

I have class this morning.

What are you looking for?

The ring you gave me.

I clearly put it here.

I put it away.

Ever since we moved here,

you haven't been wearing it.

I thought you didn't really like it.

That was one of the reasons that made you feel insecure, right?

Put it on me.

You don't have to force yourself for my sake.

I didn't wear it because I was afraid of losing it.

And also because if we wore matching rings,

it'd attract too much attention.

And if one day

you realized we weren't right for each other

and wanted to break up,

it'd just be awkward.

We'll never break up.

Last time...

Let me finish.

I thought that way at first.

But when you said we should break up last time,

I realized

that I could never break up with you.

I've loved you so much for so long that I can't imagine life without you.

Let's not talk about this anymore.

And I'll never bring it up again.

You still have class this morning.

I'll skip it.

Didn't we go at it enough last night?

Not enough.

Rock-paper-scissors.

If I win,

you'll go to school.

Scissors,

rock,

paper.

What are you doing?

After we get married,

I'll replace it with a wedding ring—

and only then can you take it off.

And

no more leaving the ring at home.

Let go.

No.

Let go.

No.

How can I hug you if you don't let go of my hand?

We'll save up together

to buy our wedding rings, deal?

Go.

Go where?

Go to school.

Or go to bed?

I thought you'd become a workaholic.

Turns out you were just fighting with Tuo and using work as a distraction.

I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to worry.

At least it turned out well.

Uncle and Auntie are so supportive of you.

That's really wonderful.

Tuo and I promised them

we would work hard to become better people

and not make them worry.

And having so many people support you both,

that must feel wonderful.

Xiaoyang!

Is that my lunch?

I brought you two packs of spicy radish.

You really do know me best.

Han Tuo?

Hold this for me.

Let me borrow it.

Thank you.

The professor asked me to tell you

that he hopes you'll return to school

as a guest lecturer.

I knew it.

When he asked me to return to school for a second lecture,

I knew he was up to something.

Are you really

going to reject me?

Han Tuo!

Let's have a relationship that feels light and easy.

You like me?

I do.

Why?

At first, I just thought you were talented.

I don't know when it started,

but it hurts me inside to see you sad.

You don't need to answer right away.

I'll wait for your answer.

I only like Junxi.

Then I'll just have to wait until you two fight again

and swoop in.

I still won't choose you.

You deserve someone who genuinely likes you.

What should I do?

I think...

I'm growing more and more fond of you.

Tuo!

Be careful.

You borrowed it from He Youmei?

We meet again.

Hello.

Remember,

the design draft's due tomorrow.

Okay.

Bye.

Jealous?

Maybe you should just lock me up at home.

I'll think about it.

We forgot the hoverboard.

He Youmei can go get it herself.

She almost made you fall.

Why such a huge change all of a sudden?

Did he get so much of Han Tuo's saliva from kissing

that he turned into a jealousy monster?

Then why haven't you become more and more like me?

What did you say?

Nothing.

Xiaoyang, are you blushing right now?

-Say that again. -I didn't say anything.

Why are you here?

[Field Café]

Here's your coffee.

Thank you.

I said we should move to Kaohsiung,

and you just moved out—

even got a part-time job to cover your living expenses.

You think you're all grown up now, huh?

Why are you so stubborn?

You suddenly came to see me

just to ask about this?

Where are you going?

Is arguing all that's left

between us as father and son?

When I was young,

all I did was work.

When you were little, you cried a lot.

I really didn't know what to do.

So I just let your mom take care of everything.

She already had postpartum depression.

But I still kept working.

That also worsened

her mental health problems later.

In the end, we divorced.

I know I was wrong.

But I still chose to keep running away.

I always thought

that providing you with good material conditions

would make up for everything.

But I was wrong again.

I'm your father

and your only family.

I should have been by your side.

I know.

Dad.

I've already transferred the living expenses to you.

Um...

how have you been lately?

You're up so early?

I know I've been busy with work,

and I've neglected you.

It won't happen again.

Let's

move to Kaohsiung

and spend more time together.

I believe your father cares about you

and loves you.

He said that for your own good.

Dad.

I'll come visit you in Kaohsiung next time.

[Field Café]

Junxi.

[Stellaris]

Jeff is looking for you.

[Stellaris]

Come in!

[Planning Department]

You did pretty well

on the "Dream Home" project.

HR asked me to check with you

if you want to continue the internship

and become a full-time employee after graduation.

Here are the system access logs

from the day of the setting error,

along with the data before and after the changes.

Cross-reference them, and you'll find out

who really caused 50,000 players to get free characters.

Lu Junxi!

I wasn't the one mainly responsible.

Talking to Jeff like this will definitely offend him.

You don't want to stay at Stellaris after graduation?

Jobs aren't easy to find these days.

I know.

If it had been the old me,

I might have chosen to stay.

But now,

I don't want to work at a company

that makes rookies take the blame.

Stellaris might be the best company in the industry.

But

I want to find the one that suits me best.

Just like dating.

So, has the best one already come to you?

That's not the point.

I'm jealous.

Here, eat this.

Time to feel sour, not salty.

You are the best.

[Juicy Joy Fruit Shop; Cash Register]

Boss,

your staff are so handsome!

They're not staff here.

They're my sons.

Both your sons are very handsome.

Yeah,

both are real charmers.

Awesome.

Our dragon fruit is also very good.

Sis, come take a look.

Dad just said

you're his son.

After our internships are over,

let's go on a trip together.

Sure.

I think...

that's when

I started to like you.

When was that?

Xiaoyang went to get ice cream,

but she's taking so long.

Why are you crying again?

Dad lied to me,

and Mom lied to me too.

Mom really doesn't want me anymore.

There, there.

If your mom doesn't want you,

then you don't want her either.

I'll share my mom with you,

and my dad too.

And Yushu...

I'll share him with you a tiny bit.

What about you?

I'll give you all of me.

Forever?

Forever!

I gave myself to you when I was so young?

I'll never let you go.

You're mine.

All mine.

Alright.

Yours.

I'm all yours.

Forever?

Forever.

What do you want to do next?

I don't want to.

Let's play rock-paper-scissors instead.

The winner can order the loser to do one thing.

Okay.

Let's play.

Scissors,

rock,

paper.

I won.

Han Tuo, you're toast!

Tuo!
