Original subtitles

So you're saying that Minmin ran away from home?

She wouldn't dare to do that.

She's at her friend's house.

It's too confusing.

I don't care anymore.

Let them be.

A baby with an old baby.

They won't be together for long.

But don't let Caiwei and my parents find out about this.

If we get married one day,

it will be so awkward.

Did my sister say anything?

What do you mean?

-Hello. -She wants me to get married

and have kids soon.

-So, -Hall eight.

please don't take whatever she said seriously.

No.

I know what she meant.

Besides, it's not about what she said.

But if we continue seeing each other like this

and everything works out fine,

we'll eventually get married, right?

Yes,

but this isn't what I wanted to hear.

You asked me to view houses with you.

Weren't you trying to hint that we should get married soon?

Yes.

But that's...

That's what I meant, but I...

Good then.

You know my dad's condition very well.

One day, he might not recognize anyone anymore.

He might not even remember his own family.

Even though he has never said this to me,

I know he longs to hold my hand

and walk me down the aisle.

So we're on the same page.

We both want to get married as soon as possible.

Okay.

Since we have the same aim, let's strive hard together.

-Go for it! -Go for it!

-Yes. -Let's get inside!

Summary.

The movie

was really

awful.

Let's

strive hard

for our

wedding day.

Go for it!

Hello. I'm an architect from Aijia. My name is Luo Wenyue.

I'm here to see Chang Huan and Yuan Song.

This way, please.

These are the designers, Chang Huan and Yuan Song.

How are you?

We've talked before. I'm Luo Wenyue.

Hello, I'm Chang Huan.

Hello, Yuan Song. Ms. Wu talked about you a lot.

-Hi. -Hi.

The meeting room is occupied right now.

-Let's talk in the guest room. -Okay.

Let's go.

What are you looking at?

I just talked to a friend who works at the headquarters.

This Luo Wenyue is a star over there.

She has worked abroad.

She has received a design award in Singapore.

And she's only 27.

I guess the headquarters isn't an easy place.

She is young, talented and quite the looker.

Look at how happy the boys are.

You're right.

He just got discharged. Now he's grinning from ear to ear.

Be careful or you might just reopen the stitches from all that laughing.

Men are so fickle.

They're happy when they see pretty women.

I don't find her that pretty at all.

Look at how thick her double eyelids are. They must be fake.

Really? Are they fake?

No wonder they look so nice.

You can become pretty as long as you're rich.

Beauty is worthless already.

I want to be worthless too.

After a bear has its claws trimmed, what will it turn into?

-A bear getting its claws trimmed? -Yes.

What is it?

Even a well-paid beauty like her would eat in a canteen?

Look at how happy Yuan Song is.

Of course, just look at her.

"Look at my luscious, wavy hair."

Of course little boys would be attracted to older women like that.

Let me introduce everyone.

This is Bai from administration and Cong Xiao from marketing.

This is Luo Wenyue, an architect from the headquarters.

-Hello, Bai. -Hi.

Cong Xiao? I've heard a lot about you.

You've snatched many projects from Aijia. You're very pretty.

You flatter me. Please take a seat.

Yuan Song, why don't you sit here?

All right.

Thank you.

The environment here is great.

You guys seem to be really close.

The headquarters is so uptight.

We might not even see our colleagues for months

when they go on business trips.

Our administrative director recently resigned.

And we're going to move offices.

Everybody has been slacking off.

We used to be very serious when we were working.

Everything has been affected this quickly?

You can ask Yuan Song.

He knows it best.

Both he and the director were like cat and mouse.

She always checked on him without fail.

Don't bad-mouth He Fanxing now.

Look at him.

He's calling her name so casually already.

No manners at all.

You're such a bad boy.

I want to eat this.

They look so happy.

What are you looking at?

Ms. He brought the boss some food.

Get on with your work.

Okay.

They might not look too good.

But my mom made the filling, so it's definitely good.

So you folded the skin?

My dad did.

So you just stuffed the filling, but you're still being smug?

You excitedly told me to try your cooking.

You are

both encouraging me while humiliating me.

I'll strive harder.

Ms. He Fanxing,

I don't think you need to try too hard to do something you're not good at.

In my opinion,

ordering takeout for me

is just as sincere as cooking for me.

But my mom said learning more skills won't do any harm.

I agree with her.

Since I'm free, I should learn.

Perhaps you're getting old,

since you're starting to agree with your mom.

I wish we never grow old.

We would have so much time.

Then we won't have to rush things and be afraid of mistakes.

That isn't something to worry about.

You have a pretty high tolerance for mistakes.

If a person's tolerance for mistakes increases year after year,

it would reach its peak when he is around 20 years old

and graduates from university.

From then on, it would decrease gradually.

When one is over 30 years old,

the tolerance would decrease drastically year after year.

-Fanxing. -Long time no see.

-Fanxing, hello. -Fanxing!

Why are you here?

Bai said the inventory doesn't tally with the accounts.

I'm here to help.

Come with me. There's a new gossip.

Over there.

That's Luo Wenyue, an architect from the headquarters.

She's here to help with the homestay project.

She has been seducing Yuan Song the whole day.

Like this, "I can't finish the egg. Can you help me?"

"I don't like wasting food."

-This is more elegant. -Better than this.

They look good together.

He was still pining for you a few days ago.

Look at this.

Men.

Fanxing!

He Fanxing! You're finally here!

I can't handle it on my own.

-It's okay, I'm here to help. -All right.

Any idea for decorations?

I'm thinking about using glass.

Besides the aesthetic value, we should take cost into account too.

What do you think, Yuan Song?

I'm sorry, what were you saying?

You're daydreaming again.

It's about the walls.

There's a duplicate order.

Did you order all of them?

How could you let this slip by you?

I've been careless.

You've been working half-heartedly.

What's distracting you?

If this goes on, you'll come in last at the headquarters.

Please understand.

I just broke up with my boyfriend.

You just broke up?

What happened?

I thought we got along well.

We were a good match in terms of age and other things.

But his ex came back.

His ex-girlfriend?

Someone told me

that exes are like ghosts.

You usually can't see or sense them,

but they'd be back during the Ghost Festival.

And what happened? She really came back.

So he broke up with you because of that?

You mean he dumped me? Never.

He was still seeing me

when he reminisced about the good old times with his ex at a bar.

He was a two-timer.

If I didn't find out sooner,

a big, green beanstalk

would grow out of my head and reach the sky!

People would be able to climb up and steal golden eggs.

He told me they were just good friends.

They even came together to explain it to me.

It was like I was the queen who tore them apart.

Ridiculous.

So did he really betray you?

Hey.

His ex asked him out for a drink and he went out with her.

That's a red flag!

He wasn't over her yet.

To top it off, she wasn't any other ex.

She was his first love.

If exes are as powerful as a time bomb,

then the power of a first love is equivalent to an atomic bomb!

It depends.

Yes, it depends. On her looks.

His ex-girlfriend has a great body.

And she can last very long in bed.

It was pointless.

That's why I chose to leave.

It was to avoid getting myself betrayed again.

He Fanxing, you're here.

I'm here to help Bai out.

I'll leave soon.

Why are you so rude?

I thought the receptionist has been bringing you beverages.

Why are you here?

Luo Wenyue has only been here for a day,

but you've been buttering her up the whole time.

What do you mean? I'm bringing Chang Huan some water too.

Hey.

What do you think about Luo Wenyue?

She's nice.

That's not my question. Is she your type?

She's not bad.

We both like the same Japanese architect.

You know what? I have a good eye for women.

That Luo Wenyue might look poised and elegant,

but I'm very sure she's an aggressive carnivore.

You'll be tricked into going to a hotel with her if you're careless.

I think you have the wrong idea about Luo Wenyue.

What carnivore?

You're siding with her now?

You're still too green.

What a pity.

I'm leaving. You should get back to work.

You're leaving already? Stay for a while.

I can't. Come to my place for dinner this weekend.

-All right. Bye. -I should go. Bye.

Bye.

It's this way. Let me walk you out.

It's fine.

When one is unlucky, one can really hit rock bottom.

How could you get caught by your aunt?

How would I know?

I even argued with my uncle over that.

I could have whined and got it over with.

Maybe I really thought

that I was independent as I was able to make money on my own.

You're crazy.

Yuan Song.

You're not mad at me for not telling you about Professor He and me, right?

You should know.

Our relationship is complicated, isn't it?

It's a small world, right?

And it's crazy, right?

You're right.

Let's toast to that.

Seriously, both of you.

How could you two be so entangled with the He family?

Do the He siblings have superpowers?

It's because they're good-looking.

So? They can have their way just because they have pretty faces?

Of course they can.

Aren't you always ordering me around yourself?

The way you try to compliment a girl is very old-fashioned!

Old-fashioned.

Big Head is right.

You two insisted to have supper here

and filled my house with this smell of cumin.

I couldn't even object to this.

You're getting away with this all because of your pretty faces.

You're right.

Here's to you, Yuan Song.

Please don't hesitate to ask me for help when you need it.

Let me fill up the blank space in your life.

It's too much, isn't it?

Why should we be looked down on just because we're young?

Do we look that unreliable?

Why don't they believe in our love?

I can get married and have kids right away too.

I can earn 200 yuan a day at work.

This shall not persist!

No!

We should love ourselves first.

Love ourselves!

If we don't love ourselves,

we'll turn into other people's shadows!

I don't want to be a shadow.

I want to be myself.

You have to leave the past behind too, Yuan Song.

Yes! Leave the past behind and be myself!

Cheers!

Summary.

I made

dumplings by myself.

Relationship progress.

Relationship progress...

Is she your type?

She's not bad.

We both like the same Japanese architect.

You know what? I have a good eye for women.

That Luo Wenyue might look poised and elegant,

but I'm very sure she's an aggressive carnivore.

You'll be tricked into going to a hotel with her if you're careless.

Stop thinking about it, He Fanxing!

It's none of your business!

Go to bed!

Is this green bean shaved ice really that nice?

You just had a huge bowl of it.

Are you not afraid you'd get a stomachache?

No, Mrs. He. My stomach is tough.

Your Professor He is back.

Why are you here?

I'm here to see Mr. He.

She bought us fruits and beverages.

Minmin told us she has started earning money.

You're a good girl.

I'll pay you a visit whenever I'm free.

The water-soluble C100 contains vitamin C. It's good for you.

Really? I see.

What have you been up to lately?

I've been working of course.

Are you staying with a friend?

Even my elementary school teacher isn't as inquisitive.

Hey!

I bought this for Mr. He.

Can I have a bottle, Dad?

-Well-- -Thanks, Dad.

He Canyang,

did you criticize Minmin again?

No.

I've told you

not to put on airs in front of Minmin.

Don't throw your weight around as her lecturer.

After your sister is married to Luming,

Minmin will be your niece.

No.

I don't want to be his niece.

Did you hear that?

She doesn't want to be your niece.

Look at how annoying you are.

I didn't mean that, Mrs. He.

You too, Minmin.

Your mom calls me that.

You should call me Grandma He.

And call him Grandpa He.

But it's weird to call you Grandma and Grandpa.

It's a bit confusing.

No, she is right.

Listen, we need to follow the hierarchy.

I have to get to work, Mr. and Mrs. He.

-I'm leaving. -Have breakfast first!

No. I start at 10:30 a.m. I have to go.

I'll take her to work, Mom.

Go.

Take care!

Hey.

Are you still angry?

Please mind your behavior in public, sir.

That Canyang.

He forgot his car keys.

He'll get Alzheimer's too when he gets older.

Perhaps Alzheimer's is hereditary.

As long as it's not contagious.

I'll bring it to him.

Okay.

I forgot my car keys. I'll go get it.

You're the one who is wrong, but why should I come to you?

Because you're kind and cute.

You're correct.

I wanted to see you, but I'm reflecting on my actions.

Are you?

What did you do wrong?

You're too perfect to commit any mistakes, aren't you?

Of course not.

I'll make mistakes even when I'm 80, let alone now.

But we should reflect on ourselves

or we'll make the same mistakes again.

That's not wrong.

Tell me about your mistake then.

I'll decide whether to forgive you or not.

I'm very popular at the restaurant I'm working at.

Many of my male colleagues like me.

Okay. I sincerely apologize to you.

I shouldn't

date you with the assumption that we'd break up.

It's as if our love is infested with cancer,

where after we enjoy good meals, good drinks and good times,

the two of us would part.

At least you know that now.

Also, my sister and your uncle

don't need to make way for us.

We don't need them to make way either.

We shall just carry on with our lives.

Are you satisfied with my reflection speech?

It was okay.

Even though you haven't reflected enough,

everything is rather on point.

My girlfriend is so adorable.

Please be serious. I really mean it.

Okay.

Why so serious?

You can't ignore me ever again even if we fight.

Fine. I won't.

Ma'am, I only have an hour. What should we eat?

Dumplings. The one below my office.

Okay.

What happened to your finger?

At the florist course earlier...

Does it hurt?

You should take a break.

Please come again.

You have a visa to Japan.

I can sponsor your trip.

I got my visa done together with Professor Song.

We planned to travel when she's on holiday.

And now,

she can't go anymore.

We'll just wait.

There will never be a right time if you keep on waiting.

It's just like a freelancer who will never have real freedom.

But you impress me.

You're really taking the initiative.

Now you're taking florist courses for your store.

I used to visit that florist.

The owner and I know each other.

I'm planning to help at her flower shop

and gain experience at the same time.

Come and be my deputy manager.

I don't want to be in administrative work.

Are you trying to avoid a management job

or me?

Is it weird for me to avoid taking up a management job?

You're great at it. Why are you giving it up?

Don't worry.

Even if we break up one day,

it won't affect your job.

I'm no longer an emotional 20-year-old.

You sound like you're trying to nitpick.

I'm not nitpicking.

I'm getting rid of the snake in the grass and giving you a better choice.

Firstly, it's not easy to run a store of your own.

After deducting costs,

you might not earn as much as you did when you were a director.

With your dad's condition,

you'll need more money.

I want to open a flower shop.

I'm just doing what I've always wanted to do.

It's not related to anything else.

Okay.

If this is what you like,

I'll support you unconditionally.

If you need money,

I have some.

I'll definitely try my best to earn money.

Besides, I still have my brother

and my parents still have their pension.

Didn't you quit? You still come here to eat.

Can't I come here to eat after I've quit?

Just saying.

Your girlfriend?

This is my colleague from the headquarters.

She's my ex-boss, He Fanxing.

He's Mr. Ye from the ad agency we work with.

Hello, I'm Luo Wenyue.

Hello.

I'll leave you to your lunch.

We have a meeting after lunch.

They look good together.

They do.

That girl is quite pretty.

He doesn't seem to loathe me as much now.

Isn't that good?

It is.

He has finally let go.

Yes.

That's normal.

Whoever meets a girl like Luo Wenyue

would definitely let go of an old woman like me.

Why do I sense anger?

Why would I be angry?

It's just a normal conversation.

That's right. Why would you be angry?

The problem is

I'm not angry.

Then why are you clenching the cup?

Your finger is bleeding.

Your hand.

Check your hand first. I'll clean the table.

You're eating with me. Why are you staring at them?

My ex-boss is pretty.

Who's prettier? Your ex-boss or me?

She is prettier, of course.

So is your ex-boss

or your ex-girlfriend prettier?

How can I compare?

No wonder Ms. Wu said

that you're not over your ex yet.

No. It is in the past.

Since she didn't choose me, I shouldn't hang on to her

and make her hate me instead.

People who hound others are undoubtedly annoying.

It's harassment.

But an infatuation at a proper distance,

that's a killer move.

Even an outsider would be moved by it.

I see.

Yuan Song, why don't we give it a try?

-Try what? -Let's date each other.

Use a new relationship to move on from the old one.

Do you mind that I'm five years older?

-Age is not an issue. -Let's try then!

Then do you mind that I have someone else on my mind?

Not at all.

TO IMPROVE RELATIONSHIP, LEARN TO MAKE DUMPLINGS

YUAN SONG

Luckily, the owner has band-aids.

He gave me one.

What's wrong?

It's nothing.

I just realized I have a meeting.

I have to go back to the office.

I can't take you home.

It's fine.

What time will you get off work?

I'm not sure.

Give me a call when you're done.

Let's take the dog for a walk at the park.

We don't have to meet twice a day.

After work tonight, I want...

I want to get some rest at home.

I'm leaving.

Hello, Minmin? What's the matter?

What? My mom saw you two?

He's not answering my calls. I'm worried to death!

Your mom was so furious, as if she'd eat him alive.

I was so scared.

Will he get beaten up and end up in a hospital?

It will be fine. Don't worry.

I'll go home right now and give you a call after, okay?

Okay.

Mom.

He Canyang.

Have your dad and I

ever interfered with your life after you've grown up?

Your dad always says that there are all sorts of people.

One must have their own character.

As long as you abide by the rules and don't hurt anyone,

you can live however you want!

But there are things that you can't do!

Mom,

I know the relationships in our family are complicated right now.

Then why did you do it?

How should our families face each other?

Minmin is immature, but should you be immature as well?

Mom, I've thought about all that.

But Minmin and I love each other.

"Love?"

Can your love last more than three months?

You're happy for sure, but have you thought about others?

Mom!

You're exaggerating. I'm just dating someone.

Enough. Cut it out.

Canyang.

Before things get worse between the two families,

break up with Minmin.

Dad, I promise I won't bring trouble to He Fanxing.

You promise?

What can you promise? How can you be so selfish?

Say something!

Honestly,

you're biased.

You always prefer He Fanxing over me.

You think she's more obedient and mature than me.

I even have to give in to her when it comes to dating.

How could you say that?

You're the one at fault!

If we wanted an obedient one,

we could have just kept a dog!

How could you be so unconscionable?

Am I unconscionable for dating someone?

Am I unconscionable for not giving in to Fanxing?

Since you love her so much, just have her! Why did you bother to have me?

How could I have this kind of son?

Fine.

I won't fight with you anymore.

Your dad is ill.

I won't fight with you.

Get out.

Get lost!

It's all right.

Calm down.

Both of you were angry.

Those words were meaningless. Don't take it to heart.

He said that I'm biased.

He isn't wrong.

How can you still laugh?

How could you laugh?

The door is open. Please enter.

Mom, Dad!

-The wine. -Take it away.

We will stop eating now.

I only had two.

But this green tea flavored Besheen Liquour tastes amazing.

I'll buy you two bottles in the future.

We drank wine and ate meat.

You said you only had two,

but look at the chicken bones in front of you.

Two?

Mom, Dad.

Are you all right?

We are. Why wouldn't we be?

Where is He Canyang?

Who is He Canyang?

Is he one of us?

We only have a daughter.

We followed the one-child policy

and had only one child.

Right?

Maybe.

See?

Your dad said so.

Canyang.

He Canyang!

He Canyang?

Where is he?

HE FANXING

-Hello? -Hello, where are you?

Why didn't you answer Minmin's calls? Call her back!

I already did.

Mom and Dad were scolding me.

A sinner shouldn't be answering a call, right?

I'm sorry. I just got home.

They were eating fried chicken chops!

I've become their only child.

Fried chicken chop?

What about their cholesterol levels?

So how did you get caught by Mom?

I couldn't hide it as well as you did. I apologize!

Why are you yelling at me? I didn't expose you!

How could I dare yell at you?

You're the only child of the He family.

I was adopted!

Why should I give in to you when it comes to dating as well?

Who wants you to give in for me?

How could you take an angry person seriously?

As their children,

we should take care of our parents' feelings.

See?

Now I know why they're biased.

You're so understanding. Mom and Dad have always preferred you.

They don't like me.

He Canyang! Stop spouting nonsense!

I'm not. Look at you.

You hid your relationship with Yuan Song.

Now that you've found someone they like, they're rushing to get you married!

Since you're obedient and understanding, they can tell how ridiculous I am.

Fine.

What do you mean by that?

Suit yourself!

You can think whatever you want,

and say whatever hurtful words you want.

Just ignore how much your words hurt me!

Because you know no matter how upset I am,

I'd still forgive you and forget about what you said.

It has always been like this since we were kids!
