Original subtitles

I want to have someone like you

like the gentle breeze through the hills

like the warm sunshine in an old town

as long as it's you in the end.

Who have you passed by today,

and who has lost you?

Passing Through Your World.

This is Chen Mo.

This is Xiao Rong.

Hello there.

Mr. Chen Mo

it's my birthday today.

Happy birthday.

But I'm spending it alone.

It's okay.

I'm here for you

I feel so lonely.

If it weren't for your show,

I might have given up.

I'll let you in on a secret.

There is this place, called Daocheng

I want to go there...

with my sweetheart,

to see the crystal blue sky,

the snowy mountains,

the golden meadows,

to experience an autumn fairy tale

I want to tell her that,

residing in any place but your heart...

is no different than dying in a foreign land

I want to tell her that,

being in love...

means staying together forever.

Then she must be going with you.

Someday, you will be there too.

That's why you need to be courageous.

Remember this: strength, in anybody,

is gentleness grown callous.

Next, a song.

For all those who are alone

may you never feel lonely.

You liked that?

Mo.

Let's break up.

What?

I've thought about it for a long time.

You're a great DJ,

but not a good lover.

Why can't great DJs be good lovers as well?

I don't understand what you mean.

What?!

You win.

[I Belonged To You]

There are a million ways to die. [Two Years Later]

Which one...

would you choose?

What I mean is

today, we won't talk about living.

Let's talk about dying.

Now, a song for you.

Let's get the party started!

Unexpectedly pregnant? Come to Jianguo Hospital.

Have the abortion today, back to work tomorrow.

What noise! Turn off the radio!

Mr. Driver, it's too loud.

What a lousy show.

How this show has deteriorated...

With all this nonsense,

I don't even want to place my advertising in there.

This show still has potential

I don't want to give up on it just yet

I'm checking out a VR project tonight.

Why don't you come with me?

If it goes well, you can be a co-investor.

Chen Mo,

I feel very confused right now.

Confused, how?

My ex-girlfriend is getting married.

So?

She is marrying my ex-boyfriend

I feel so confused.

So?

Next!

Mo, when the hell are you coming home?

Your mom was making soup

and she put detergent in there again.

Bubbles everywhere!

Get back here and deal with it!

This is my Mom.

She started having Alzheimer's three years ago.

She's fine most of the time, but she gets pretty creative when cooking

putting all kinds of stuff into the pot.

This is my cousin, Mao Shiba.

Life...

is like a bunch of bubbles.

He likes toying with electronic appliances.

An inventor with no dreams

I've turned it into an Air Fryer.

Mao Shiba, causing trouble again, huh?

Always causing trouble on the road of invention.

Pay for my pot.

He successfully got the attention of Police Officer Lychee.

Mao Shiba

it's your thirteenth explosion this month!

This is Chubby, my best friend from college

I hate wasting.

He's been with his girlfriend Yanzi for eight years.

Tutoring, driving pirate taxis, running restaurants...

He has done it all, whatever pays the bill.

And when he gets paid,

he wires the money to his Yanzi overseas.

Look,

this is Yanzi in the US, and in London.

She even went to Africa. No no no.

Too much skin in this one.

They developed a habit of eating and sleeping in my house,

and what makes it worse is...

I have grown used to their company.

This is for Mom.

You're healthy human beings!

Why don't I break one of your arms and have you beg on the street?

This is lukewarm. It's better when it's searing hot.

Searing hot, huh?

That's Miss Xiao Rong.

She has so many awards.

Best program.

Look at you...

fawny sycophants!

Instead of learning the ropes

you just kiss asses. Let me tell you something.

When I become Director...

Madame Director. Madame Director.

What's the big deal about being Director?

Madame Director!

Long live Madame Director, and uh...

please, feel free to humiliate me.

Your ratings.

The worst show at this station.

If you don't make an effort,

none of these interns will want to work with you.

What shall I do then? Team up with you?

My name is Chen Mo. Your name is Xiao Rong.

Our new show could be called...

Madame Mo!

No.

What else then?

Since your hair is so short,

eyes so small and face so wide,

why don't I marry you?

Here we go again... Get lost!

Get what?

Get in your bed?

Get out of my sight!

Anyone here wants to intern with Mr. Chen Mo?

I do.

Good morning, Mr. Chen Mo

I'm Birdie.

Like the small bird in Mahjong?

Then call me White Dragon.

Not again...

Mao Shiba!

Stop right there!

Stop!

You haven't paid me!

Stop running!

Stop!

What have I done this time?

What were you running away for?

What were you chasing me for?

You guys put up all these posters on the wall, right?

Madame Lychee, I'm sorry about this.

What did you do?

Not bad!

You two finally showed some gratitude!

After living off me for so long...

Not bad!

Such good handwriting, and no mistakes.

You really think it's me?

Mo, this won't get you much attention.

Let me start a newsletter for you.

Arrest them.

Why are you always pissing off the police officer?

I didn't.

So she's just running after you for no reason?

I figure these old buildings will be gone soon.

Let's leave the posters here.

Cut the crap! Get rid of them!

Shiba, come here.

Yup?

You're sweating. Are you tired?

What were you whispering about back there?

He said you were trying to date me.

Shiba, you really do only tell the truth

I'm already so busy exploring the truth of the universe

I don't have time for lying.

Let me clean you up.

Passing Through Your World.

Hi there. I'm Chen Mo.

Something's different today at our show.

Her Majesty the Director...

...paired me up with the most talented intern.

Her name is... Birdie.

That being said, feel free to ignore her.

Well, we have a caller online.

Hello.

Chen Mo

I think my wife is having an affair.

Are there any grounds for your suspicion?

She used to have noodles with me seven days a week,

without a word of complaint.

So I promised myself that...

I would succeed in my career, and I would treat her right.

Lately, when I brought home...

...the same assorted pea noodles from the same takeout

she won't even touch them.

Tell me, isn't it obvious she's having an affair?

As the old saying goes, "plenty of other fish in the sea"

just as there are plenty of cuckoos in the tree.

And they go,

Cuckold! Cuckold!

Chen Mo, you're rubbish.

Your show is rubbish.

Even rubbish has some value.

You're just a dumbass.

Shut up, how old are you?

Thirty-two. Why?

Thirty-two...

That's almost half a lifetime.

She's been having noodles everyday.

What if she wants to have dumplings for a change?

You know why you're not successful?

Because you spend all day worrying about nonsense.

Don't you have something better to do?

I'm guessing you don't.

How can I be so sure?

Because you're not man enough!

Your wife must be blind to pick you as her husband.

Blind!

B-L-I-N-D!

Next!

I'm so sorry.

Next.

Have some noodles.

You spy.

Xiao Rong sent you, didn't she?

I just can't stand people calling you names.

Don't try to explain.

She placed you at my side.

So what if I've given up on myself?

So what if nobody listens to my show?

I'm not going anywhere

I insist on going down with my show!

Yeah!

Mr. Chen Mo

what can I do to earn your forgiveness?

Simple.

Don't ever let me see you again,

okay?

Now get lost.

Get lost!

There's been something unexpected this week.

Chen Mo.

Chen Mo.

Congratulations. The ratings went through the roof.

Second highest.

Keep up the good work.

Have my fans lost their mind?

Have they chosen to listen to the radio all day...

instead of caring about the reality around them?

Come on, flatter me.

Every time Birdie loses it, the ratings go up.

Fascinating.

What do you put on this ugly thing for?

Here. Put it over your eye.

Well, you said that...

you never wanted to see me again.

With this, you don't have to see me.

Birdie,

this idea of yours is just brilliant.

Don't tell anyone that I'm your mentor

I appreciate it.

Mr. Chen Mo, I'm sorry

I'll keep my mouth shut

I'll do better. Whatever you say.

Don't!

Don't do anything differently

I just love how you...

erupt with unexpected eloquence.

Keep it up,

okay?

Mr. Chen Mo,

are you being sarcastic?

Come to work earlier.

Do some work with the studio.

Make it nice and clean.

Yanzi, you've become even prettier.

You're so pretty.

I mean it.

Yanzi, look.

It's ugly. Who designed it for you?

Is it?

Why didn't you talk to me...

before you got that tattoo?

I wanted to surprise you.

It's alright. I have another surprise

I bought this dress for you.

Do you like it?

It's quite an arrogant brand.

Must be expensive.

Nah. The price is actually very cute.

Smart of you.

Wait. Didn't you say Mo's wifi isn't working?

Are you using all your data?

It's all worth it as long as I get to see you.

It's alright.

Alright. I'm going to see the waterfall now.

Take care of yourself.

Let's talk when I get back.

Oh my, that must have been an expensive call.

I have to go. I'm running late.

Chubby

what's that?

Nothing.

- Show me. - I'm going to work as well.

Show me.

"Ten yuan for a punch."

What is this?

Just a side job

I can make money with this.

Something's up with you lately.

Have you gotten into trouble?

Are you desperate for money?

You need to fix your wifi.

Ten yuan for a punch, huh?

Twenty.

Thirty.

- Forty. Fifty. - I...

I discussed it with Shiba. We decided not to tell you.

It's not a small number.

Tell me

I can handle it.

You would spend every last penny for me.

Are you terminally ill?

Dying?

I'm buying an apartment.

Dying seems better.

Get back here!

I'm serious.

It takes a lot of money to buy an apartment, Chubby

I have money

I wired some money to Yanzi every month.

All the receipts are here

I asked her to save it for me.

200 thousand in total.

Chubby

can I be your girl?

- No. - Why?

You're not as pretty as her

20 thousand...

You're living off me, and you saved up 20 thousand.

Mo,

I just want to give Yanzi a home.

That's all I have.

200 thousand.

Mo, I can't take this.

Serves me right for being friends with you.

How much is the down payment?

200 thousand.

I could kill someone right now.

What is it this time?

Morning, Director.

Morning, Director.

Haven't I already wired that into your account?

Mr. Cao, how much more do I need to invest in this project?

What is the matter?

Birdie.

Miss Xiao Rong.

You helped bring...

Chen Mo's show back to life.

No no no. I'm way too stupid and impulsive

I've been dragging him down.

Nonsense.

Just make sure you don't end up like him.

He's given up on himself.

I think I heard my name.

She has a lot of potential.

Pity she's working with you.

What filthy words.

Cover your ears.

Stealing. She's stealing from me.

Everyone, she's stealing.

She's stealing from me.

- Mr. Manager. - Chen Mo

what are you yelling about?

Someone's stealing from me.

You know what stealing is?

S-T-E-A-L-I-N-G, stealing!

Despicable!

Stealing from me!

Stealing? All I see is you screaming

I just don't want to see Birdie's potential wasted.

Birdie,

did I waste your potential?

I don't have any potential.

That is true, actually.

Mr. Manager, who do you believe, Xiao Rong or me?

Of course I believe Xiao Rong.

Why?

She's our top DJ.

- What about me? - Everyone knows...

that you're our top loser.

You know what, if I put my heart into it.

I can get the highest ratings here.

Highest ratings? Impossible.

You wanna bet on it?

Bet! Bet!

Daring me, huh?

- Bet! - You want a bet?

Bet! Bet!

I, Chen Mo, promise that within a month

the show hosted by me and Birdie...

will have the highest ratings in this station.

That's the only trophy you have.

Why didn't you say so?

That's great. What do you think the stakes should be?

What are the stakes?

What are the stakes?

Take a look at this lady here

with her protruding cheekbones

her tiny lips

her dim eyes

and her peculiar features.

She has what we call a typical...

widow face.

Whoever marries her... will be unlucky all his life.

Tell you what.

If I win,

I'll marry you.

Marry him. Marry him. Marry him.

That's quite some bet.

Marry him.

Marry him.

You're always so immature

I don't want to be...

totally ruthless.

If I win,

you host on a parade with a sign around your neck.

Parade?

Madame Director, what will the sign say?

I'm an idiot.

Well said.

Let's hear it

I'm an idiot.

I'm an idiot.

What's the big deal? I don't mind.

If you marry me

you'll face domestic violence every day

I will make clear to everyone around us that...

my wife

can be slapped.

That's enough. Go back to work, everyone.

Mom, what are you doing here again?

I'm waiting for my son

I'm here. You don't need to wait.

My son has a wife. You don't.

Here we go again... You always say that

always hurting me like that

I'll call him

tell him to come home for dinner.

Alright. I'll wait with you.

Hello.

Mom.

Do you know what time it is?

You said you'd be home for dinner

I'm waiting for you. Come home now.

Mom, turn your head.

What's your name, Mr. Chen?

Take a guess, Madame Liu.

What are you doing here, Mr. Chen?

Bringing you food, Madame Liu

I won't eat. I won't eat till my son comes back.

Madame Liu, it's your son who asked me to bring you these.

My son asked you?

- It's wonton. - Wonton.

You are listening to Asia's pop music channel 101.7.

- I'm Ding Ding. - I'm Wong Kai.

I'm Xiao Chu.

This is the Sound of Szechuan 92.5 FM.

I'm your host Xiao Dong.

You're listening to Jiangtsu's radio station's traffic program.

This is City Radio, FM90.2

Passing Through Your World

I'm Chen Mo.

I'm Birdie

I'm getting married

but my mother-in-law always checks my phone behind my back.

When I confronted her

my husband not only didn't take my side

but also called me inconsiderate.

He even hit me.

Then don't marry him

I don't even want to live anymore.

Then marry him.

But...

life is a long journey.

Once you make a poor choice

your life becomes a living hell...

full of frustration and horror.

Take me for example.

After my ex-girlfriend...

dumped me

her life became a total mess.

Now

she keeps getting uglier.

So, thank you for calling.

Mr. Cao, can you tell me what's going on?

What do you mean?

With my money.

Your money...

might be gone at this moment

but in a year or two,

when the economy recovers...

That's not what you told me before.

Do you have any special talents?

My mom always says that I don't have any talents...

except for my tolerance.

No matter how nasty people get, I don't talk back.

Then how come you didn't hold your tongue with that caller?

But that guy was nasty to YOU!

You're a smooth talker, aren't ya?

For a young lady

you're not pretty at all.

You're right. I'm aware.

For a young lady who's not pretty,

you're always slouching.

No elegance.

Mr. Chen Mo, you're right on.

For a young lady with no elegance

you have zero self-confidence.

You're Birdie!

Be a birdie with shiny feathers!

But you, you're a birdie with no feathers at all!

Well, what do I do then?

You're not gonna talk back?

Well, you're right about everything.

Mr. Chen Mo.

Hello, Miss Birdie?

Miss Birdie, hello.

I just saw my friend's boyfriend...

in the movie theatre with another girl.

Should I tell my friend?

If I were you... I'd tell her.

Wrong! Who are you to tell other people...

what to do and what not to do?

Miss Birdie

why did you come to work at the station?

Do you still fancy Xiao Rong, your former partner?

No chance.

That stupid woman...

How dare she dump me!

She must have been out of her mind!

Then why are you still working there?

Don't you get annoyed, seeing her everyday?

Mr. Chen Mo,

tell me what love is about.

Love... Love... It's the beginning...

of all kinds of stories.

How do I move on from a failed relationship?

You had a failed relationship?

How do I know if I'm in love with someone?

Little girl

you're in love, huh?

That's a very hard question to answer, Mr. Chen Mo.

Mr. Chen Mo.

Mao Shiba, why are you running?

Stop!

Stop!

What's in the basket?

Stuff I recycled.

Is that all? Then why were you running?

I'm scared of you.

Am I that scary?

If you're scared of me, then answer these questions honestly.

First question:

Why were you disqualified for the College Entrance Exams?

I cheated.

Then...

why didn't you start looking for a job?

I have my cousin. He takes care of me

I can just live off him

so I'm developing my own software.

Next question.

How many relationships have you had?

If holding hands counts as a relationship

I've had three.

If it has to include making love...

then just one.

How about you? How many?

One.

I almost got married.

We agreed to meet in front of the registration office

I waited from morning till the registration office closed

but he never showed up.

My dear, he said he forgot to bring his residence certificate

and you actually believed him?

Even if his certificate is in the US,

he could have come back in a day.

That's why I hate lying.

So you truly never lie, huh?

I'm too busy exploring the truths about the universe

so I don't have time...

for lying.

Let me ask you one more question.

Am I...

pretty?

Yes.

Some love happens naturally.

Some love disappears for reason.

Though you can see it happening

there's nothing you can do

I have an apartment now

I can get married now.

Chubby,

it's hard to think you've been with Yanzi for eight years.

Has it been eight years?

I just remember it as 2,923 days

I suck at math. Don't take advantage of me.

You practically used calculus when you were planning how to live off me.

Let the drinking begin!

We'll have lots of chubby babies.

Twenty of them!

Chubby and Yanzi were college sweethearts.

Yanzi was the prettiest girl at our university.

Chubby started having a crush on her in junior year...

but never confessed his feelings

until one day...

Chubby was shocked to find that... Yanzi had been publicly criticized.

The notice said that Yanzi stole 2,000 yuan from a roommate.

- This must be a mistake. - She was given a warning punishment.

Do you believe her?

No need to get all worked up.

Yanzi!

That night, Chubby acted crazy

running lap after lap

till he collapsed with exhaustion.

After that, he chose to...

trust her...

and never look back.

From that day on

Chubby would skip classes to be a tutor

and study with Yanzi whenever he had time.

Every day at morning and dusk

everyone in our university could see them...

walking on this most beautiful path on campus.

That was our youth

with all its glory

I finally saved enough money

and I went to see that girl

I wanted her to tell everyone...

that Yanzi didn't steal from her.

But she had transferred to another university.

From then on, Yanzi was stuck being the thief.

Chubby believes her.

Chubby does.

Whenever it rains

the road becomes filthy and muddy.

I...

Everyone steps over it

I have only my life to give

I work really hard to make more money.

I want to give her everything

I want to give Yanzi everything.

Such devotion!

You're such a Romeo, only a bit larger.

You're my hero.

Yanzi is coming back next week.

I'm going to propose to her.

Come on.

Get up, all of you!

I want everyone to hear this!

Yanzi!

I love you!

Did you hear that, Yanzi I love you.

Chubby's love is like an anchor.

As long as he loves Yanzi,

we are all still young.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Morning. Morning.

Morning. Morning.

Mao Shiba and Lychee started dating

and he moved out of my house.

That little bastard used all his intelligence...

on pleasing a woman.

Shiba.

Get up!

Good morning, Lychee.

Why is the food from last night still here?

It's your love for me that I want to keep fresh, not the food.

Smooth talker.

The sesame pancakes want you to get up.

Just a little bit longer.

Shiba, you're so lazy.

I'm late. Do what you want

I'm late.

Don't go.

One of us needs to go to work.

I'll deal with you tonight.

Clean up your room.

Shiba, Shiba, I need an OS installed.

- Just in time. - Shiba.

Shiba, Shiba, I need an OS installed.

What's this?

I made it for you.

If you're in danger, it'll notify me

and I'll come rescue you.

You? Rescue me?

I appreciate it.

Thank you for listening to ChungKing Radio FM.

Let us accompany you as you drive to happiness.

This is ChangShia Music Channel.

Hello, this is Guang Zhou FM 106.1

Tonight from 5 till 7...

I don't believe this.

Why do you have to pick today to be sick?

It's such a critical day.

It's our final battle with Xiao Rong.

We can't afford to lose.

Drink some more of this medicine

I'll drink some too, in case you gave it to me.

Actually, you don't need to be nervous

One time, I did a live show right before an operation.

What kind of operation?

I had a hemorrhoid on the corner of my mouth.

To hell with it!

Today is a special occasion.

If anybody misses Passing Through Your World...

brought to you by Chen Mo and Birdie

you might as well...

disappear from your world.

Let's take our first call.

Hello

I only have one question.

What do you do if the person you love doesn't love you?

What can you do about world peace?

What can you do about the origin of the universe?

There are so many interesting things going on,

and here you are, pining over the most boring one.

Talking to you is an insult to my intelligence.

Read some classics before you call in next time, alright?

Next!

Hello?

Miss Birdie

I've failed the College Entrance Exams five times.

Could you give me some encouragement?

Hello?

Miss Birdie

why didn't you say something?

No amount of disappointment should lead to despair.

Next.

Hello?

I'm Yuan Jiaze, from...

Class 1, Year 3, Xinhua Road Elementary School.

Hello, Jiaze.

My mom is sick.

Dad said she'll be away for a long time.

She can't make my favorite potato dish anymore.

So what did your mom say?

She said

Jiaze, you have to be strong.

But I don't wanna be strong. I want to have my mom's cooking.

Jiaze wants to have Mom's cooking.

So do I. I remember one summer vacation,

before I went home

I wrote my Mom a text message...

with all the things I wanted to eat.

There was stir-fried boiled pork

spiced chicken, braised intestines

preserved eggs, spicy corydoras

cold dried tofu, and chicken leg.

My mother...

wrote back just two words.

"You wish."

When I got home that night...

The ratings are so high.

Looks like Miss Xiao Rong will have to marry him.

It seems they're going to end in first.

I found that...

every dish I had ordered...

was right there on the table

I'm starting to miss my mom's dumplings.

My mom passed away when I was in high school

I was always scared when I was little

so Mom said to me

Birdie

you're the smallest tile in a Mahjong set...

Birdie.

But you have to stay strong.

That's right.

Small as Birdie is, without it you can't have a hand of Thirteen Orphans.

Alright. Thank you for calling in.

How come it's so cold?

Is it snowing?

Snowing? Your fever is producing 3D effects.

Three Defats?

This caller has such a peculiar name.

Listen to me.

When you have made up your mind...

to do anything and everything for someone

you will become a fool

deaf

blind to anything...

but that person.

Even the pain...

becomes a test for love

and yet you tell yourself

with a sense of ridiculous innocence

to be strong.

So what if we left halfway through the show?

It's kind of a style, you know.

Why?

Let me tell you why

I just love ruining what I've achieved.

Keep it down.

Sorry. Sorry.

Birdie

when you get better

if there's anything you want to do

I'll help you do it.

There's somewhere I want to go

a place called Daocheng

I heard it's beautiful.

Sure.

We'll go.

What are you doing, Shiba?

What's this you're working on?

It's a GPS navigator.

Hi, I'm the private navigator for Lychee and Shiba.

Why is it your voice?

I spent a month...

replacing all the original audio files.

Driver, would you cut your nails?

What if I don't want to hear your voice all the time?

I'm hungry.

Alright.

Let's go eat, at a nice restaurant.

What are we having?

Up to you.

Can I count on you this time?

I'll look it up on Baidu Map.

The 100-per-person one, or 300-per-person?

The cheap one.

Lychee

you always look at the sky while walking,

and you have a terrible sense of direction.

You say you don't want to travel far

in case you can't get back.

You don't need to worry anymore.

You don't need to remember all the street names, don't need to buy maps

I'll be in this navigator

always there for you.

As long as the sun rises

the navigator will always be charged

and I...

will always be there by your side.

You're an idiot.

I'm an idiot.

You're an idiot.

You know, we only ran half a show

and we still ended up second. What does that say?

That you're awesome

I'm an idiot.

You're an idiot

I'm an idiot.

You're an idiot

I'm an idiot.

You're an idiot

- I'm an idiot. - You're an idiot.

Mr. Chen Mo, I'm so sorry.

Why did I have to be sick?

I'm still too green at these competitions.

What's this?

What's wrong with a parade? We could do it with grace.

The slender leaves, works of art by the February breeze

I'm an idiot. You're an idiot.

I'm an idiot.

You're an idiot.

Mr. Chen Mo, please don't give up on me

I hate those who don't concentrate.

You can't even concentrate on the parade.

You're an idiot.

You're an idiot

I'm an idiot.

You're an idiot

I'm an idiot.

You're an idiot.

Idiot! Idiot!

Come with me to pick someone up.

Thanks.

Yanzi. Birdie.

Hello. Hello.

Where's Chubby?

Welcome to the engagement party of Yanzi and me

I've known Yanzi for eight years.

That's 2,929 days

I think about her every second of every day.

She's the only one in my life.

And at night, I dream about her.

Sometimes I wonder...

if there's anything in the world that's more important than her.

There isn't.

There never will be.

Yanzi is all I need.

Yanzi, if you hadn't come back

I would have decided that all love is bullshit.

People say that college romances don't last.

Yanzi and I are the only couple still together...

in our class.

We will keep up...

the good work!

Bravo! Bravo!

I used to think that, when great happiness arrives

I'd weep with joy.

But I didn't

I'm not crying.

So happy!

I'm so happy! Chubby

I need to talk to you.

Yanzi

is something wrong?

Was it something I did?

I never know what you're thinking

but then I thought

we're together now. I don't have to know.

Yanzi.

Yanzi.

Go away.

Yanzi wants to confess her feelings for me.

She's so romantic

I came back...

to break up with you.

You've stayed abroad for so long

and now you're good at making western jokes

I just can't bring myself to...

break up with you over the phone

I came back to say goodbye properly

so we can still remain good friends.

So many people...

are waiting for us.

Let's go finish the party

then go our separate ways.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Why do men keep desserts in the fridge?

Why do men save up for a wedding without a bride?

It's in case you appear,

out of the blue.

We are back.

Why does one whose heart has been broken still believe in tomorrow?

It's a happy occasion. Can you pretend to be happy?

Why is it, that at moments of tearful sorrow, we still manage to smile?

I put too much pressure on her.

She hurt me.

But she was really doing me a favor.

Right?

No big deal. Everyone's had breakups

I was dumped as well.

Why are we even talking about this?

You don't understand

I'm trying to help him.

Whatever Yanzi needed

Chubby worked so hard to give it to her.

What did he do wrong?

How did mutual affection...

turn into unrequited love?

You know what, Chubby?

I think that...

it was Yanzi who stole that money back then.

What the hell are you talking about!

- What the hell! - Stop it!

Stop it!

It was her!

Stop!

What! How dare you!

Stop!

Say that again! Stop it! So I said it!

What are you going to do? Let him do it.

Chubby, let go.

Let go.

I dare you to say it again.

Stop.

You call yourselves men?

Chen Mo, you're unbelievable.

So, just because Chubby did so much for her

Yanzi has to love him and marry him?

Do you know...

what women really want?

When will you grow up to be normal human beings?

If you can't keep up

then stop complaining.

All that money you sent...

It was 200 thousand in total. I wrote it all down.

As soon as I have it, I'll give it back.

It's alright. I don't need it so badly

I'm really sorry.

Don't say that.

It's good that we didn't get married.

Otherwise,

you would have been stuck with me.

Well, I'm leaving.

Take care.

You too.

Bye.

Bye.

Will I see you again, Yanzi?

Please be happy when I do

alright?

Yanzi,

please be happy

alright?

Be happy.

- Let's go. - I won't be in your world anymore.

But that's okay, as long as you're happy.

Yanzi!

Yanzi!

Yanzi, how am I supposed to live without you?

Yanzi!

Yanzi!

Yanzi!

Yanzi!

Yanzi!

Yanzi, take me with you!

On that night

Chubby disappeared.

Nobody ever saw him again.

Just as Yanzi was gone from his life,

he was gone...

from ours.

Stop!

Stop that thief!

Stop! Stop!

Damn, he's still running!

Stop that thief!

Stop!

Get up!

Stand up!

You have some balls starting trouble on my turf!

They say that Mi phones are hard to get

so here I am, trying my luck.

Wonderful.

So many bad guys

I smell a promotion.

Alert! Alert!

Lychee is under assault, continuous assault

on an average of 0.3 hits per second. Go help her!

Just you wait. I'll remember you

I'm Lychee, Police Number 026303.

You don't scare me.

Stay still!

Don't move!

Lychee!

Lychee!

Lychee!

Lychee!

I'm here!

Lychee,

thank God you're alright

I'm alright

I can't let anything happen to you

I want to marry you.

Stay still!

I need to propose to Lychee soon.

Following Chubby's footsteps?

There are things you just have to do.

You have to help me. I've never proposed before

I'm terribly inexperienced

I've never proposed either.

But you planned one, no?

I solemnly pass this on to you

with the entire plan for the proposal as a bonus

I don't need it anyways.

The handbook is covered with dust

and that woman and I have drifted so far apart.

Cao Yu is suspected of economic fraud

and is on the run...

What's up with Miss Xiao Rong?

She and Mr. Cao partnered up for some business deal

and Mr. Cao disappeared with all the money.

What a pity

I heard that he only left her this car.

You're his partner, so your car is impounded

I heard that the bank had applied to the court...

to freeze all her assets.

Really?

Is the Blue Lotus.

Nobody understands why I did that

and I didn't feel like explaining.

Pretty soon

we were on our way to Daocheng.

Attention please. Attention please.

We're three meals away from our destination.

Drive safely, and please hold my hand.

That's right.

Turn left in 100 meters.

Slow down. Slow down.

You're not the only one in this car.

Who's talking?

It's a navigator.

A nanny? Bullshit!

It's a man.

What a load of crap you recorded!

Not one moment of peace!

Get a normal one instead.

Mr. Chen Mo,

why is your mother in a child seat?

She's been using it ever since she got sick

I like sitting in it.

It's comfortable.

Yeah, and safe too.

Impossible!

Even if that car were new, it would be worth only 200 thousand.

Yeah, that's what I thought too

but Chen Mo insisted to the insurance staff...

that he was to pay you 500.

The insurance guy didn't know what to do.

Impossible.

He obviously wanted to give you some money

I heard that he mortgaged his house for it.

Li, where are you? Hurry up!

Do you have everything I left with you two years ago?

How's it going?

All done.

Mr. Chen Mo

somehow I feel that something major is happening.

Help me propose to her.

Really?!

Li,

I am sorry you're finally here.

Put it here.

Here.

Mr. Chen Mo, are you psychic?

You planned everything so long ago.

How did you know that Shiba was gonna propose two years ago?

Because I'm also a fortune-teller.

You want to have your fortune told?

Sure.

If you don't shut up right now,

you will be thrown into a ditch with your pants on your head,

and die a horrible death.

Where are Mo and the others?

Doesn't matter.

Doesn't matter?

It's just the two of us.

So where are we going?

Doesn't matter.

This is a church.

A fake one.

It's shaking.

Did you prepare all this?

Lychee.

I love you.

Will you...

marry...

me?

How stingy of you! A one-line proposal...

If someone says that to me

I'll say "I do."

Lychee

I love you. I love you. I love you.

Will you marry me?

Yes.

Mr. Chen Mo, are you crying?

Only losers cry.

Three. Two. One.

Let go

I used to be an inventor with no dreams.

Now I will become an appliance shop owner with big plans.

Mo, I will give Lychee...

the best life possible.

- Chubby has brought his home cooking. - It's Chubby!

We think he wants to make the war fugitives feel better...

with food from his hometown.

Better?

It doesn't make anything better.

Ever since I opened this Chinese restaurant here

it has never made money.

But I feel that...

every dish I sell here...

is another achievement.

That being said

business is getting worse by the day

I can't understand what these people are thinking

fighting each other every frigging day

Yanzi had been there.

We don't know why this young man Chubby...

insists on bringing his hometown cooking to these places

or where he will go next.

Because those are all Yanzi's favorites.

Shiba.

Do you think it's worth...

changing your whole life...

for a woman?

Yes.

Mr. Chen Mo.

do you think...

there is a possibility that...

we'll be here again?

Say, one year from now

let's come back here and look at the stars

shall we?

It's time for the show.

What show?

Our show.

What?

We've gone a long way already.

There's still no reception.

Almost.

Yeah, I have it. Yeah?

Here? Yeah.

I want to have someone like you

like the gentle breeze through the hills,

like the warm sunshine in an old town,

as long as it's you in the end.

So it's Xiao Rong covering for us.

Shame on this unprofessional woman!

She's two minutes early.

This is Xiao Rong.

Exactly four years ago, on this day,

Passing Through Your World came into existence

Neither Chen Mo nor I were very experienced.

We thought it was time

but actually we started two minutes too early.

What? Trying to make me look bad? Turn it off

I want to share a story with you.

There was a boy and a girl,

and they were hosting partners at the university radio station.

It might sound incredible to you,

but their love...

started with a bet.

If the boy won,

the girl would be his girlfriend.

If the girl won,

the boy would parade the campus with a sign...

that says, "I'm an idiot".

In the end, the boy won,

and the girl won as well.

But, unfortunately,

their love didn't last.

I believe that,

even if one day...

the whole world has lost faith,

that boy and that girl...

would still believe in that bet they made.

If I win,

I'll marry you.

If I win,

you parade with a sign

I'm an idiot!

Four years ago,

Chen Mo, with his sincerity,

soothed countless lonely hearts.

Every night,

at this hour,

his voice was always here,

right by your side.

But one day, he changed.

He lost that touch of warmth

I had often wondered...

what made him change like that.

That's public slander.

It's like pouring acid on my face.

Call in. Stop her.

For us who sit here

it's only when we are filled with love...

that our show passes on love.

When we feel lonely

we can't warm anybody up.

Chen Mo used to be able to cheer up so many lonely souls

but now,

he is lonelier than anybody else.

It's the station.

We have a caller.

Hello.

Hello.

Does she honestly think that...

she could get to me with that?

That I will shed my tears over this?

No way!

Hey,

why are YOU crying?

None of your business

I'm crying for myself.

What is this?

Hey!

Women are so incomprehensible.

What's wrong with you?

What are you angry for?

Hey! If you don't stop, I'm leaving.

Do you have any idea...

how many people got through their problems because of you?

Why can't you get through yours?

So you were dumped. Big deal!

Do you have to drag everyone down with you?

You're selfish. You're weak!

Hey,

I'm sorry, alright?

My dear lady,

I need to warn you.

There are wolves here.

Wolf!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Birdie, Birdie, you are so beautiful.

Mo.

Yeah?

As your friend, I'll help you to...

marry Xiao Rong, so you can beat her up everyday.

On your journey for the new day, this is Ji Nan Music 88.7.

Good morning I am your DJ Mai Mai...

Thank you for listening to music station FM 98.6.

I am your DJ Rocking Shu Han.

It's now 6 p.m. in the evening.

You are listening to Chung King FM 90.2.

Don't go away... We have more exciting programs coming up.

Shiba.

Shiba.

What are you working on?

A secret.

A secret?

How dare you keep a secret on my turf!

I promise that...

someday, you will know what it is,

and you will be very happy.

That's not called a "secret."

That's a surprise, you fool.

I'm gonna go help out Birdie.

Be careful on your patrol tonight.

Don't worry.

I have you to protect me.

Three years ago, I came to this city

I was alone, and I felt lonely.

Shiba, how's it going? Is it ready?

Trust me.

Hello?

Miss Xiao Rong, can you come up to the roof?

Shiba, Xiao Rong is here.

Ready?

Three.

Two.

One.

Please, God, make it work.

How I wish to have someone like you.

But dusk is that different from dawn.

The rain stops, the song stops, and the wind blows on.

That umbrella was left at the same place.

How I wish you were the one.

But time passes and youth is long gone.

A light, a city, searching for that one person.

It's been quite a journey

I have passed through your world.

Left the best and all of me there.

Please walk on and no need to turn around

I'll be waiting for you at the end of the road.

Mrs. Chen

I won't be around anymore.

Take good care of yourself.

For you

love is enough.

But for me

being right for each other is more important

I devoted my youth to love

but I don't have another youth.

Standing at the crossroads

I told myself that

if I don't go now, I will never do it

I want to see what it's like in a higher place.

Even if it means having a hard time now

that is the life I've chosen

I want to give this card back to you.

Keep it. We are the best of friends.

Once I give it back to you

we can start to be the best of friends.

Thanks.

Someone told me that

once you fall for someone

you won't see anything but that person.

Even when you're in pain

you keep telling yourself

Hold on.

Don't you die like this.

And you thought she was...

talking about you?

No.

I know now...

that she was talking about herself.

Sorry, the number you are calling can not be reached at the moment.

Please try again later.

Who have you passed by today,

and who has lost you?

Welcome to Passing Through Your World.

This is Chen Mo.

Tonight,

Birdie is not here

So, instead of taking calls

let me tell you a story.

There is a girl...

who's always a bit scared.

Although she's been living here for a few years now

she doesn't have many friends.

She feels lonely.

Three years ago, I came to this city

I was alone, and I felt lonely

I was scared of doing anything

so I never went out.

Every night,

I can only fall asleep...

once I listen to Passing Through Your World.

I grew attached to the voice of the host.

He was always there at the same hour...

to bring me comfort and joy.

At the convenience store where I worked

there was this wall.

People came to draw pictures on it

I also drew something there...

an image of my dream life.

One rainy day

a guy waited there for the rain to stop.

Later, I realized he had drawn something too.

He had put an umbrella into the little girl's hand.

How I wished that my life would be just like the drawing,

better every day,

filled with happiness.

Then one day, I learned that...

the guy was actually the host of that show.

His name is Chen Mo.

Mr. Chen Mo

it's my birthday today.

Happy birthday.

But I'm spending it alone

I understand how you feel.

At this moment, around the world,

many people are celebrating their birthdays,

so you're not really alone.

It's okay. I'm here for you

I feel so lonely.

If it weren't for your show

I might have given up.

There is this place, called Daocheng

I want to go there...

with my sweetheart

to see the crystal blue sky

the snowy mountains

the golden meadows

to experience an autumn fairy tale.

Let's break up.

What?

You're a great DJ,

but not a good lover.

From that day on,

he was like a different person

I think that,

if I hadn't made that call,

things wouldn't have ended up like this.

But I don't know how I can make it better.

Passing Through Your World.

That's the reason you want to work here?

I want to be closer to him.

It's funny in a way.

Every day, I talk to myself over the microphone,

giving answers to other people's lives.

But my life is a bigger mess than anyone else's

I have no idea how many of you in this town...

are listening to my babbling,

but if you'd be so kind as to oblige me,

I'd like you to flash your signal lights,

even if it's just one person

one car

one light

I just want Birdie to know that...

I'm looking for her.

It's understandable, really

I'd given up on myself so long ago

so it's only fair that you guys gave up on me too.

You always say you're not pretty

not brave

with all kinds of imperfections.

Well, you're right

but so what?

You are Birdie

the smallest tile of the Mahjong set

but without you

there won't be a hand of Thirteen Orphans.

Thank you for letting me pass through your world.

After that day, I never heard from Birdie again.

Lives often change overnight

and that night was far from over.

You're a feisty one, aren't you?

I'm not running today

and neither are you.

Lychee, I'm here!

I called the police. I called the police!

I am the police, silly.

Honey, it's just a few petty thieves

I can finish them off in no time.

Shiba!

Honey, you okay?

It's alright. Hold on

I'm arresting all of them.

Go. Go. Go.

Stop. Stop right there.

Stop. Stop.

Wait for me.

Don't worry

I'll be back safe and sound.

What are you doing, Shiba?

I've cried enough. I don't want to cry anymore.

Lychee

you always look at the sky while walking,

and you have a terrible sense of direction.

You say you don't want to travel far

in case you can't get back.

You don't need to worry anymore.

No need to remember all the street names, no need to buy maps

I'll be here in this navigator

always by your side.

As long as the sun rises,

the navigator will always be charged

and I...

will always be there by your side.

I've heard a lot of honest confessions in my life.

I feel lucky

for I have been confided in

but I'm also sad,

because I can't get over them.

Memories are like a city made of sand.

You can't touch it.

As soon as your hands fall on it,

the entire city will collapse with a rumble.

And our tears roll down...

and we keep looking back

but we can only move on.

[350 days later] [Xiang Cheng]

- Say "Daddy". - Daddy.

Louder.

Daddy. Louder.

Chen Mo, you're taking advantage of me again.

You're the one who left your son here unattended.

Daddy's leaving. Bye.

Let's go home.

Bye.

Bye.

Chen Mo, you...

So, your purchasing cost is three yuan.

You sell it for five.

Someone gives you a ten.

You don't have enough change

so you borrow from your neighbor.

Later you find that the ten is a fake.

Fake money is no good.

This chunk of meat here

I'll give you two yuan for it.

- Wrap it up. - Two yuan.

Yes.

Lao Chen!

Woah!

More than half a kilo.

With 36 yuan per kilo...

I'll give you a discount. Twenty.

Twenty? Go to hell.

- You already get a discount. - I don't want it anymore.

I thought you like them cheap.

Hey, it's a big discount.

- I'll save the 20 for my future wife. - Mo, you're off work?

Yeah.

Listen to me. If you see Lao Chen again, ignore him.

Don't talk to him. Got it?

Yeah.

Mo,

it's a gift.

- I can't take it. - It's a gift.

I'll take it then.

Take it.

It's the 358th day that I've been here.

But the spot beside me is still empty

I'm waiting for her.

Hello!

Hello!

Hello!

August, the season of osmanthus.

Entertainment news, with all the gossip.

I, Chen Mo, am here to deliver for you...

all the latest and hottest celebrity news.

Speaking of Rose, top dancer at the Qingqing Dancehall

I bet you'd think of words like...

"sexy" and "rebellious."

But according to the paparazzi Granny Liu

Rose has decided to marry Mr. Liu, the accountant at the steel bar factory.

Who would have thought, huh?

Chen Mo. Chen Mo. Chen Mo.

What is it, Mrs. Zhao?

I lost a sheep.

Lost a sheep?

Please help me find it.

Emergency notice!

- Mrs. Zhao's sheep went missing. - Male or female?

Female. It's an ewe.

Where did you lose it?

It's an ewe

with a dark patch on its butt.

She had three lambs already.

What misfortune!

I tied her at the edge of the field.

Which idiot took her by mistake?

Was it you?

- It's smoking. - I'm aware.

Does it still work?

What do you think?

Chen Mo, help me please.

I will. I will.

Hello. Hello, everyone.

We have an urgent request.

Mrs. Zhao has lost her sheep.

Is there a reward, Mrs. Zhao?

Reward my ass. She said "reward her ass."

Chen Mo, big disaster!

The butcher went crazy. Come on!

Hey, my sheep!

I don't want to talk to you. You just had to make me!

I won't talk to you anymore! You take advantage of me!

Here's your money. Here's your money.

You take advantage of me everyday.

Silly!

Silly!

Silly!

It's his fault.

It's his fault.

It's his fault.

He comes to take advantage of me every day, every day.

He tricks me every day. He takes advantage of me.

He takes advantage of me every day.

Take him.

I'm not going. I'm not going.

I'm not going. I'm not going.

Leave me alone. Leave me alone.

Take him.

Leave me alone.

That Lao Chen is not a decent fellow

always taking advantage of the gullible...

I can't change the life of others

because I'm not even sure where to go myself.

Before, I would have given up

but now, I've decided...

to go on.

Mom, what's the occasion?

There's so much food.

I'm waiting for my son.

Well, here I am.

I have three sons, and three daughters-in-law.

We don't need to wait for them.

They're busy.

Put that down. We have to wait.

When will they be home?

Soon.

Soon. Soon.

We have to wait. We have to wait.

There are people who will never show up again.

Everyone has their own path to follow

I know where I'm going.

If you're just passing through

I'll be waiting for you at the end of the journey.

This is Chen Mo.

Goodbye.

I haven't been powered on for a long time.

Where to? Where to?

Attention please. Attention please.

For the next 100 meters, there is nothing

and this part of the road is very bumpy

I suggest getting off the pushing the car forward.

If you can't move it, cry for help.

It probably won't be of much use

but yelling, at least, can make you feel better.

Lychee, are you in Daocheng again?

Your position is at Chonggu Temple

where I proposed to you.

When we get here

I would tell you that...

the crystal blue sky...

makes you...

the most beautiful angel.

Lychee

I'm wondering

when you hear this

is it our one-year anniversary?

or maybe a road trip

traveling with our baby?

Both the me that was standing under the sky on that day

and the me today

we want to tell you that secret

I want the whole world to know:

Lychee

I love you.

Lychee, I love you. I will always love you.

Lychee, I love you. I will always love you.

Lychee, I love you. I will always love you.

Lychee, I love you. I will always love you.

Lychee, I love you. I will always love you.

Lychee, I love you. I will always love you.

Lychee

I love you. I love you. I love you.

Will you marry me?

Yes.

I want to have someone like you

like the gentle breeze through the hills

like the warm sunshine in an old town.

From dawn till nightfall

from the fields to the study

nothing matters

as long as it's you in the end.

In one's life

there always comes someone...

who nods in promise...

to share the future with you

one milestone...

at a time.
