[Episode 9]

No.

After all, he's still my father.

-Can't you just... -Apple.

I don't like mealy apples.

I have to go.

Call me when you've made up your mind.

You're quite confident, huh?

What makes you think

I'd eat anything you feed me?

Do you want her to keep bothering you?

I'm not afraid of that.

Really?

Not even afraid of a woman clinging to you?

What's there to be afraid of?

It depends on which woman we're talking about.

Wan Qing?

She's nothing to be afraid of.

What about other women?

Who?

Who are you afraid of?

In my entire life,

I've never been afraid of anyone.

You sure about that?

Maybe one day you'll meet a woman

you're really, really afraid of.

If that day comes,

I'll accept my fate.

I specially found you

a coach who speaks Chinese.

This one.

Coach Hua.

Hello, Coach.

I've been a top coach for ten years.

You can trust me.

Congratulations, my lucky star,

for passing your driving test!

It's all thanks to you.

It's because you're naturally gifted.

Actually, I don't even know why,

but the moment I first saw you,

I just wanted to be close to you.

That's no mystery.

It's because you're beautiful and kind.

Stop teasing. I'm being serious.

It might be a connection from our past lives.

That's it.

It's called...

"instant..."

"Instant connection!"

Your Chinese is really good.

You even know idioms.

Xin,

why did your grades drop so fast?

Did you not understand the lessons?

Xin,

you must study hard.

If I had studied hard back then,

I wouldn't be a hoodlum now.

Are you cut out for studying?

Back then, a C was already

-way beyond your usual performance. -Go away.

I've gotten a C before.

You must

take my words to heart.

Okay, okay. I got it.

You really did?

Then I'll sign this for you this time.

Wait, Xin.

Do you understand all the questions you got wrong now?

Let me tell you,

making mistakes isn't scary.

What's scary is...

I think you're the scary.

Are you signing it or not? If not, I will.

Why so many words?

Xin,

how do you write Jin in Jin Zhao?

-Give me a break. -With your education level...

Give it to me. I'll sign it.

I just can't recall right now.

Let me think.

So rusty. Give it to me.

Do you even know how to sign it? Give it to me.

-Who's going to sign it? -Me.

I will. Give it to me.

-Let me. -You know how to write it?

You don't know how to write it. How can you sign it?

I'll sign it now. I remember it now.

-Give it to me. -I'll sign it.

Brandy.

Well...

Brandy, don't get angry.

One test doesn't mean anything.

Right. Xin's actually been working hard.

Yes, she got an A before.

She even got an A+ once. I signed those.

You... shut up!

These last two questions aren't hard.

Why did you leave them blank?

I did it on purpose.

Why?

The teacher said the first-place student

needs to give a speech as the student representative.

I don't want to go.

You're getting more and more strong-willed as you grow up.

Not bad. I've only ever written reflections,

never given a speech.

I was afraid my mom would nag.

I didn't expect you guys to be even worse.

She's talking about you.

I'll sign it for you this time.

Next time,

just talk to your teacher.

Don't pull these little tricks.

I see.

Yang, take her home.

Yes, Master.

Go now.

Be careful on your way.

Aren't you a bit too strict with Xin?

Too harsh. She's just a kid.

Indeed.

You two have pretended to be her parents

signing her papers many times, haven't you?

I'm... I'm thirsty?

You want to buy a dog?

I sell cats too.

-I'm right next to the shop. -The connection is bad.

[Speeding Auto House]

I'll move somewhere else to talk.

Alright, alright.

-I'll go somewhere else. -Okay, okay.

Just a moment.

I...

I'm thirsty.

Hello, one milk tea please.

Here's your milk tea. Welcome back.

Thank you.

This looks cool.

The skills are a bit rough compared to mine.

You're bragging.

Has the locking collar been adjusted?

How do you know?

Is it that obvious?

There was a noise when you drove in.

It's loose.

I just modified this car.

Can you check it again for me?

See that?

Indeed.

Right? And look here.

This engine doesn't suit this car.

And look,

the right locking collar is also broken.

It needs to be fixed too, okay?

Okay.

Lin Sui?

Why is he here?

[locking collar]

Why are you here?

I'm meeting a friend here.

You picked the worst-tasting one.

This one?

Which flavor tastes better then?

Come with me.

I don't drink alcohol.

Don't accuse me wrongly.

This doesn't have any alcohol.

Don't worry.

No peach either.

Thanks.

It's strawberry flavor?

Welcome to my world.

Hey, Lin Sui.

We should go now.

Going up the mountain? I can give you a ride.

No, thanks.

I arranged to meet Sanlai at the service area.

Sanlai?

He's the one I invited.

You could wait for him up the mountain.

You invited him? So you know each other?

Not really.

Just curious.

Curious?

Are you coming or not?

I'm lost. Wait for me on the mountain.

Which car?

That one.

Let's go.

What does this mean?

It's an understanding between drivers,

like a secret code.

Aren't you going to note it in your phone?

It's not necessary.

Hold on tight.

Don't touch it yet.

The engine's really hot right now.

Why hasn't he come yet?

Lin Sui, look.

That cute little pickup is heading up the mountain.

Do you think that guy is faking it?

If not,

it's even funnier.

Why did you call Sanlai here?

That's something

I'm wondering too.

Sanlai, what took you so long?

I've been waiting for you for an hour.

What's the rush?

It's such a big event.

I had to get myself properly dressed up.

The outfit looks good.

But that red scarf...

You have great taste.

This is for good luck—

it means a victorious start.

Do you know

when you were driving earlier,

that camera...

Well...

Let's get started.

Let's go.

Good luck.

Brandy said

this car is modified.

1000 HP, 2000 torque,

Wankel engine. It's faster than race cars on the track.

Sorry.

I didn't mean to take advantage of you.

I should be a good host.

I'll give you a 5-second head start.

How's that?

Then I'll respectfully accept your offer.

The guest follows the host.

Sanlai,

are you okay? Be careful.

I'm fine.

I just used a little trick

and gained the upper hand.

Go back.

Let's go!

Let's move!

Looks like...

it won't take 5 seconds.

I realized

we need to follow the rules in games.

You don't need to let me go first this time.

Let's go together.

Give me the hat.

Give it to me.

This hat isn't mine.

I need to return it to its owner.

I'll return it for you.

There's a good cupcake shop

at the service area down the mountain.

See you there.

If you get there within half an hour, it's on me.

Today really got off to a bad start.

All this dressing up was for nothing.

You're a typical underachiever with lots of stationery.

Alright, let's head back.

Going up the mountain was so difficult.

Going down must be much easier.

You're wrong.

The downhill road is the hardest to drive.

Why do I feel a little dizzy?

I'll drive.

Jiang Mu,

are you sure?

It took me over an hour to drive up.

Don't worry.

We'll definitely get there within half an hour.

She only took 23 minutes.

Hello.

Hello, sir.

Two of each: black tea, green tea,

and lemon flavors.

And two without cream.

Sanlai, why are you only buying the cake bases?

They're for Brandy.

Brandy never eats

the cream on cake.

I don't even know

what's left of a cupcake without cream.

He's not really into sweets.

You know he doesn't like sweets?

That habit of his

is a bit annoying, isn't it?

By the way,

why did Lin Sui take your hat earlier?

I have no idea.

That guy is pretty weird.

I already told him

that the hat wasn't mine

and that I needed to return it to its owner.

But Lin said,

"I'll return it to him for you."

Ridiculous.

Does he even know whose hat it is?

Whose is it?

It's Brandy's.

Sir, your cakes are ready.

Thanks. How much is it in total?

Someone already paid for you.

Already paid?

Yes.

Who was it?

Sanlai,

do you know how long it took us

to get down the mountain just now?

Not sure.

40 or 50 minutes?

23 minutes.

23 minutes?

Turn on the lights if you want to take photos with the car.

Hey handsome, you're cute!

Can we take a photo with you?

Come on, come on, together.

Make me look cool.

Three, two, one.

One more, one more!

Come on.

Thank you, handsome.

Thanks!

You're welcome.

Your car looks great too.

-Thank you. You have good taste! -Bye-bye.

Don't forget me next time you want to take a photo.

Sure.

Bye-bye!

Sanlai,

looks like you're quite popular.

So why do you make yourself

look like this?

Why don't you spruce yourself up a bit?

Look like what?

I put a lot of effort into this look.

Yes, I can see that.

It's just that your hair

is kind of covering your eyes.

Well,

it's mainly because I'm just too charming.

I'm afraid the girls will be so distracted when they see me

that they won't be able to move,

and it'll affect my pet shop business.

That's why

I make my handsomeness

look a bit mysterious.

You really put a lot of thought into that.

Of course.

I mean it.

If you trim your beard

and cut your hair a bit shorter,

you may look much fresher.

Are you serious?

Yes.

I think maybe you'll even become

more popular than Brandy.

Girl,

since you said that,

I'll have to

get rid of this haircut

and my beard.

Come on, I'll take you home.

Home?

[Speeding Auto House]

What's gotten into you?

Jiang Mu told me

I'd look fresher this way.

So, what do you think?

Still as handsome as ever, right?

But I think

I'm a bit more handsome than you now.

Here.

I'm back.

-Mu, you're here. -Mu.

Sanlai?

You... you...

Why do you look like this now?

Like what?

You had a haircut and you shaved?

I didn't know your features were so sharp.

It's the first time I've seen your forehead.

This style is so trendy,

like an idol.

How do you like it? I just bought all of this.

You look much cooler this way.

These beads are so cute.

Do they come in colors?

I want the same ones.

I got them for 19.90 at the store next door.

What about this?

Look.

Not bad, really.

Jiang Mu.

Look at this. Do you like it?

Jiang Mu!

Come here.

I'll go first.

Did you see Sanlai?

He's completely changed.

-Completely... -I hear you always ask Sanlai about me.

What did you find out?

Not much.

You know him. He always

goes off on tangents

and can't stop praising himself.

But I have to say, with this new look,

he's actually quite handsome.

Look at how he's...

You're not mad

because I always pry into your business,

are you?

Why do you want to know about my business?

Because it's you.

You know very well

that we're not blood‑related.

We lived together for a while when we were young,

but back then you were just a child.

Now,

you keep coming here.

What will others think if they find out?

What will Jin Qiang think?

Or do you just...

want something to happen...

between us?

Mu!

I'll bring... I...

What's going on here?

[Jin's Chinese Restaurant]

Three cases of beer.

Three cases of beer. That's correct.

Why doesn't it add up?

Hello.

It's you again.

We have customers. Go sleep somewhere else.

Go sleep somewhere else! Hurry up!

Hello.

I'm sorry.

We've sold out of all our dishes today.

Only dumplings are left.

Meat or vegetable dumplings?

Which one would you like?

You recommend one.

Okay then. Please take a seat.

You're here.

Here are your dumplings.

Thank you.

The condiments are here.

Alright?

Zhao.

Zhao, help me watch the shop.

There's a customer inside.

Give him whatever he asks for.

-Okay. -I'll go get something next door.

Yours looks more delicious.

My dumplings are too salty.

Your fried rice looks...

pretty good.

Finish your food and leave.

Don't come back again.

I'm here to return something.

Let's have a talk.

Was that you on the mountain that night?

I never expected the person I've been looking for all this time

to be you.

Don't you remember?

Last time you barged into my racing team

when I wasn't paying attention.

And the boxing match.

I want you to fight a match for me.

Your opponent is He Zhang from Wan Shengbang's team.

If you win,

I'll give you a sum of money.

I'll let you know the time and place later.

I didn't expect you

to run away halfway through the fight.

Then a pink pickup showed up,

and the owner actually admitted

that he was the one driving that night.

I agreed to race him, though I was suspicious.

That guy

was arranged by you, right?

One race,

just the two of us.

There's no need.

Liang Yanfeng drives faster than me.

Why don't you go find him instead?

I've known him for many years.

He's never beaten me.

But you have.

That's because I know the roads better.

Just happened to be lucky.

One more time.

Not interested.

So what

would make you interested?

Eat up.

I got information

that next up is the cornering speed race.

Get prepared.

Only one race left,

and you can make the top 3.

I'm not confident.

Last time,

I almost lost.

There's still some time.

Only by getting first

can you transport their cargo.

That way, Wan Shengbang's secret business will be cut off,

and we'll get the evidence.

What's wrong? Having problems?

How did you

drive back then?

As a top racer,

one obviously needs

calmness,

attentiveness,

courage,

and skill.

All of this...

is bullshit.

So what's really the most important?

Mastery.

You need to master everything

you're supposed to control.

What is a car?

A car is an extension of your body.

And you

should become part of the car,

the most essential part.

You need to understand its breathing,

its rhythm,

its sound,

and its temperature.

Of course,

with just these things,

it's not enough

for one to become a top racer.

You need to be so skilled

that your hands are faster than your brain,

making all your movements

become muscle memory

and every decision and action

happens instinctively,

without thinking.

Want to know how to achieve this?

Come help me deliver food tomorrow.

Let your body

drive your car.

Is there a simpler way to put it?

Yes.

Don't be a coward.

I'm leaving.

Drive carefully.

Drink moderately.

I'll come see you tomorrow.

You brat.

Or do you just...

want something to happen...

between us?

So annoying.

[Speeding Auto House]

Jiang Mu,

I made seafood hotpot today.

Come over tonight and eat with us.

She replied pretty fast.

I'm eating vegetarian tonight.

I won't be coming.

Did you say something

to Jiang Mu?

She hasn't been coming over lately.

I did.

Can you cook faster?

Can you drive faster?

I'd like to drive faster.

The rotors on your car are completely worn out.

If I drive any faster, it will fall apart.

Just step on it.

If you can wreck it, I'll be impressed.

Turn off the AC while driving.

The food will taste different if it gets cold.

People will say my cooking is bad.

Got it.

Come back quickly.

We still have 7 or 8 more orders to deliver.

When will my food arrive? I'm starving.

Ten minutes.

Why is it taking so long?

Your restaurant's delivery is too slow.

I'm going to file a complaint.

If you had come before 7,

she wouldn't have thrown water on you.
