Original subtitles

Right now,

I'm just like those prawns bubbling away in the pot.

Fanxing.

What kind of girl do you think Yuan Song likes?

He's right there.

Why are you asking me?

It depends on feelings.

That's a general response.

You're not being serious. Try again.

I prefer a contrast between personality and looks.

Someone who is tough and fiercely cute.

It would be perfect if we could drink together.

Aren't you basically describing me?

Unfortunately, no.

What a hypocrite.

Fanxing.

Don't you think that Yuan Song and I make a great pair?

Not really.

I think he's not good enough for you.

Did you hear that, Yuan Song?

I'm a catch, so you need to work harder to court me.

I will consider you.

Thank you, but save it.

It's almost time.

The talk will start in half an hour. We should go.

What about you, He Fanxing?

Why don't I go with you?

I don't have plans anyway.

Have you registered?

What?

You need to make a reservation for an invitation to the talk.

Then...

I was thinking of praying at Chongyuan Temple.

I'll enjoy the hot spring after.

It's perfect. You two go ahead.

Enjoy yourself.

Don't get lost.

Don't talk to strangers.

Safety first.

Remember how to get back.

Text or call me if there's anything.

All right, admission is prohibited ten minutes prior to the talk.

Let's go.

I have met a completely aggressive opponent.

Why are you back so soon?

Why didn't you answer my calls?

I can't take my phone to the hot spring.

Weren't you supposed to go to pray?

I thought something happened.

What could have happened?

Forget it.

What are you doing?

I have something to tell you.

Go on.

Last night, you said

that I called and proposed to you while I was drunk.

I have thought it through.

I've been eager to get married

since my dad fell sick.

So when you said I proposed to you while I was drunk,

I don't think you lied to me.

So what's your answer?

What answer?

I wasn't lying either!

I have talked to Ye Luming to end our relationship.

The reason is simple.

I just couldn't develop feelings for him.

It's because...

The one I truly love...

has always been you.

So are you proposing

or confessing to me?

Both!

So what's your answer?

Of course, it's...

No.

-To both? -To both.

You can't say no.

Pick one.

Why do I suddenly feel a great sense of déjà vu right now?

But it was different.

The one who said no was you.

-Say yes. -No.

No?

I've heard your feelings loud and clear.

You and Ye Luming didn't work out, so you came to make me say yes.

Am I a guy you can summon as you wish?

Do I look that easy to you?

You're making me annoyed.

That's not it.

It was my fault.

I apologize.

You're good at apologizing

and making mistakes too.

I...

I'll reflect on myself.

I've been trying so hard to stop myself from disturbing you.

Can you accept the consequences of being with me again?

I want a lasting and stable relationship too.

I mean

I don't want to be hidden away.

If we get back together, it will be public.

Of course.

I've taken care of that.

My parents know that I came here to find you.

This time,

I'm not going to do it half-heartedly.

I don't want to back down anymore.

I'm already in my 30s.

I can't be a coward

who is afraid of facing my own feelings and responsibilities.

I neglected the present because I was worried about the future.

I put in so much effort into work and life

just because I wish to be happy.

It's not only for survival.

I know

that I'm quite a loser.

I'm becoming more immature as I age.

Stop putting yourself down.

That will only make your admirer feel small.

It's as if he has bad taste.

So can we get back together?

No.

Still a no?

I have to consider it.

You do have a prior record.

He's obviously playing hard to get.

I know he is.

But I don't get why he has to do that.

Maybe it's because he was the aggressive one before.

Humans are insecure creatures.

Do you think all men are tough?

He probably wants to see how far you're willing to go for him.

Okay.

Hey, that's all for now.

I need to settle my problems. I'm hanging up.

Goodness.

Our heartless little girl actually sighed.

In the past,

I didn't get why adults get angry so easily.

Now,

even I have started to sigh.

Don't sigh.

That's three seconds off your life.

If only I didn't like you.

What?

My uncle said it.

His matters and mine are unrelated.

He is still good friends with Fanxing.

But...

I still feel sorry towards my uncle.

I understand.

Our little girl has grown up.

What is this?

This is why I broke up with you.

ULTRASOUND EXAMINATION REPORT

You're finally telling me.

I SAW SONG XUE DURING MY CHECKUP. SO SHE'S MARRIED!

We have been together for over a decade.

I thought we knew each other very well.

But you acted on your own.

It's my own decision to keep the baby.

I can't force you to accept it.

In the future, if you want,

you can see him.

It's you who wants the baby.

Why should I see him?

You've made the decision.

The baby is yours.

It's your future.

It's your hardship.

You're independent.

I suppose I should applaud you.

What do you expect me to do?

This was an accident.

If it wasn't for this, I would probably never have a child!

He already exists.

-I can't bring myself to kill him! -Right!

You can't.

But I can.

I'm selfish. I only care about myself.

Isn't that what you think of me?

I never said that you were selfish.

Everyone has the right to choose their own path.

-Even you-- -Sure.

Live by yourself then.

Dear.

You're still up.

Where's Malty?

He's sleeping.

Right.

Next month, the company is organizing a trip abroad.

Family is allowed.

We haven't had the chance to travel.

Let's have my parents look after the kids,

while we...

go and have some fun.

Can you take a day off tomorrow?

Take a day off?

I read about a restaurant online.

They said the food is quite delicious.

I haven't eaten out in a while.

Sure.

Let's go on a date tomorrow.

You should get some fresh air

or you will fall sick from looking after the kids at home.

I'll take a shower.

You're early.

What's your decision about us getting back together?

Is it necessary for you to rush it?

Yes.

Next year,

I'll be going to Sweden to study for two years.

-There's a seven-hour time difference. -I know.

It's okay.

I'm good at long-distance relationships.

Besides, I can visit you often.

That's true.

But I can't be selfish.

I have to be responsible for your life.

Why should you be?

You don't have to. I can be responsible for myself.

You're being too impulsive.

That's why you think you can't live without me.

You will regret and hate me for wasting your time.

I'm not acting on impulse.

I have made up my mind.

I know more than ever of what I want now.

If I don't take the chance now

and worry about the future like a coward,

I will regret it then.

Nobody knows what the future holds after all.

But your dad is sick.

I'm sure he wants you to marry a suitable man soon.

Yes, I've tried.

But getting married just for the sake of it

is not something I can live with.

My dad wants me to be happy,

not just to be married.

Marriage is just one of the ways to reach happiness.

It's not the only way.

Besides,

those who believe that marriage is the happy ending

have been brainwashed by fairy tales.

I think that getting married is just the beginning of a new chapter.

As to how it ends, that's another mystery.

I get it.

But...

Do you really like me that much?

Yes!

You are the only guy I have met

who doesn't care

about how many family members I have,

my annual income,

how many kids I want,

or who should be the one to do the housework.

You're just...

You're just someone who likes me.

Is that all?

That's not all!

You're energetic.

You're ambitious and kind.

You have many more good traits,

so many that you're glowing.

So it has to be me?

It has to be you.

All right.

Do you have a lipstick?

Here.

Hand.

What are you doing?

Hold this.

What's that?

A slave agreement.

Let me see.

You've already stamped it, so there's no backing out.

No, wait a second. What's that? Let me see!

No-casual-break-up contract.

What contract?

And I like your answer.

You get full marks. Don't get too cocky.

Were you messing with me?

Who's messing with you?

It was you who wanted to break up out of responsibility for me.

Why? Can't seem to hold your ground?

You're mean!

Give me that! Let me see!

-You can't hold your ground, can you? -Just let me see!

Congratulations.

I guess I don't have a chance.

You never stood a chance.

You're so heartless.

I had put up a good show for you.

Show?

That's right.

But your expression looks better than Yangcheng Lake now.

I'm going to the hot spring.

Right, I know you two are newlyweds,

but my room is next to Yuan Song's.

I'm not sure about the soundproof insulation.

Please be mindful, okay?

That's enough from you.

What a pity.

I did quite like Yuan Song.

It's okay.

There are other opportunities out there.

If...

I didn't come to look for you,

what would have happened to us?

What else?

You would still get me in two days.

Someone called me late at night

and threatened me.

Is it me?

Did I threaten you?

Yes.

HE FANXING

-Hello? -Hey.

Yuan Song.

I'm He Fanxing.

I know from your caller ID.

Are you drunk?

No!

I feel

pretty good.

What's the matter?

There's a big problem.

Is it related to me?

Yes!

It's all because of you.

Me?

I broke up!

It's all because of you.

It's all because of you!

You keep showing up in front of me,

day in and day out.

Then you told me that you liked me

and smiled at me.

Why are you always smiling at me?

When I saw that,

I thought there was no way I could fall for anyone else.

So what if you like me?

You dated another guy.

That...

That's because

I wanted to give it a try.

After I tried it,

I realized it wouldn't work.

Of course not.

Then...

Do you still like me?

Go to bed.

We'll talk tomorrow.

I'd rather not talk to a drunkard.

No!

I won't hang up!

You must be lying to me!

Why would I lie?

If I hang up,

you will surely go and look for...

that female colleague!

Luo Wenyue!

She's young

and pretty.

And she's very handsy with you.

Very handsy.

That girl.

She's really good at bowling.

She's very skillful.

I saw her play.

Don't teach her!

I'll think about it.

Then

please consider me.

Please...

get back together with me.

I have always,

always,

always and always,

been in love with you.

I can't hold it in anymore.

It's too hard.

What did you say? I didn't catch you.

I said...

I can't hold it in anymore!

Keep it down.

Your parents will hear you.

Don't hang up the phone then.

I won't.

Really?

I can't lose touch with you.

You won't.

Today, I was at Ye Luming's house.

I ate

a really, really huge piece of steak.

I also had some really nice wine.

And so, the two of us became good friends.

Goodness.

How embarrassing!

It's okay. I like you like that.

Right now,

right at this moment,

this is the happiest scene that I could ever imagine.

It isn't the happiest yet.

In the future,

I'm going to build you an enormous house.

Then I'm going to take Baylor with me.

I want a lot of cats.

And two parrots.

Okay.

You care for the pets and I'll care for you.

No.

I'll take care of you.

I have savings,

and I'm still going to make lots of money.

Looks like I don't have to worry about my future.

That's right.

So make sure

that you won't be seduced

by those wild women when you're studying abroad.

Tell that to yourself.

Don't be tricked by wild men.

I wasn't tricked!

Ye Luming is a nice guy.

I know that in your world, there are no bad people.

That's not true.

For instance,

there's Luo Wenyue.

Luo is not a bad person.

She just likes pulling pranks.

Okay, I'll call her now and ask her to come.

Hey. What are you doing?

I want to call her! Don't stop me!

What do you want now?

Cut it out!

All right, I was wrong!

You have no idea.

The admin department is full of old people.

It's like an old folks' home.

The old supervisor is so stingy and petty

over a pen and a piece of paper.

Don't complain.

I'm newly promoted, so my subordinates won't listen to me.

They're waiting for me to screw up to laugh in my face.

I heard.

They say that you use your beauty to gain favors.

I suppose being pretty is also a burden.

Hey. I also heard

that an engineer is still courting you even though you're taken.

Chang Huan must be pissed.

He doesn't have time for that.

He has been so busy.

He's even drafting blueprints at two in the morning.

-How sad. -Two coffees to go.

-Thank you. -Thank you.

What is it?

What are you looking at?

Here, let me see.

Look at this.

Not bad, this is good.

I mean, how did it happen so quickly?

What?

What's wrong with it?

What matters is that they're happy.

This photo is lovely.

The thing is,

will Yuan Song's parents be okay with it?

I don't want to be like Mrs. Wang from downstairs.

Goodness gracious.

Weep, bleat, then commit suicide.

Please, don't jinx it.

Not everyone is like Mrs. Wang.

Hopefully not.

Hopefully.

Wait, there's more.

Look, here.

A member of the He family indeed. Always quick to act.

Isn't it too quick?

My uncle must be heartbroken to see this on his timeline.

Yuan Song is very popular, so she had to be quick.

Or else, she would miss him forever.

That's true.

Yuan Song is quite a catch.

He's handsome and talented.

Not to mention his killer smile.

Almost half of the girls in our club like him.

Professor He, are you jealous?

The movie is starting.

Hey. Look at this.

Get lost!

Did you ask me here to provoke me?

Is there no alcohol?

I have a meeting this afternoon.

There won't be drinks, just food.

Let's end our friendship.

Mr. Song.

I'll increase the contract fee tomorrow.

Really?

Please call me Steven next time.

Here, I'll replace alcohol with tea.

Let's toast to being friends forever.

Friends forever.

Your wish came true.

Best wishes.

-Get in. -Where are we going?

Just get in first.

Open it.

HOUSEHOLD REGISTER

My household register?

Why do you have it?

Did you go to my house?

Don't worry.

I told your mom that you needed it to buy a house.

Did you bring your identity card?

Wait, what are you saying?

Why am I buying a house?

Where are you taking me?

To the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

To get married.

You're finally speechless.

I liked you for your independence and assertion.

But you're too assertive.

As if your life has nothing to do with me.

You chose to bear this huge matter on your own.

I was pissed.

Even though my future plans

don't include the option of having children,

you are included

in every other option.

It won't work without you.

So are you...

trying to solve everything by getting married?

Currently,

if I wish to include the next generation in our plans,

we are unprepared in terms of hardware.

First, we need to buy a house that's close to your campus and my office.

He has to settle down and go to school.

It should be at least 150 square meters because we would need a nanny.

Also, we need a bigger car

with a bigger back seat to fit a baby seat.

A good care center has a one-year waiting list

while it's three years for a good kindergarten.

You've thought of everything?

That's why I didn't want kids.

Having a kid means shifting your focus.

Half of your energy will be shifted.

I wanted to be like He Fanxing

and live a carefree life.

But since the baby is here,

what else can we do?

We can only welcome him.

Then...

No wedding.

I agree, it's too troublesome.

I've applied for leave. We'll go to Japan for our honeymoon.

You do have a visa, right?

Zheng Dongyang, you jerk.

How could you keep this from me?

It was to get back at you for not discussing with me.

Now, make sure you have a cute baby.

It would be best if it's a girl.

Just like He Fanxing.

I can't promise you that.

It will be hard to look like He Fanxing.

She will most probably look like me.

To imagine a future

where I'll have to fight with Professor Song

and a smaller version of her,

my head hurts.

-Then are we still getting married? -Of course.

Bring it on.

DIVORCE AGREEMENT

Dear.

Did I not do well lately?

I've changed. Why can't you forgive me?

You should at least think of our kids!

When you fell for someone else,

did you think about them?

That's why I'm going to think for myself.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs is just next door.

It's just a few steps away.

Let's get a divorce.

Take your time to read the asset division agreement.

The house, kids, and savings will be equally divided.

All right.

Let's calm down first.

Dear.

Please think this through.

I used a whole week

to go through one gigabyte of chat logs between you two.

To please the woman you loved,

you complained about me and ridiculed me.

Sagging breasts like a hot water bag.

Shapeless stomach like a swamp.

Buttocks as big as a barrel.

The stench of poop and milk that won't dissipate.

You feel nauseated whenever you get close to me.

If I did not read all that,

maybe I would consider forgiving you.

Your phone's chat logs

are synced

with my laptop.

So...

You knew all along.

You have been quietly enduring it all.

As Shen Fanfan's wife,

I have endured much more

than you could ever imagine.

But it's pointless now.

The lawyer has the chat logs.

If you wish to take it to court, I will have the upper hand.

But you're the father to our kids.

I still hope

that you'll carry out your role as their father in the future.

For their own sake,

let's not go to court

to go through a lawsuit or fight over properties.

It's disgraceful.

All right?

I'm sorry.

I'm not human.

Fanfan.

From now on, I'm Yang Xiaoyu.

Remember how you feel today.

This feeling of regret,

pain,

and helplessness.

In the future,

live like a proper human.

I'm divorced!

I'm married!

I'm in love!

I had an argument!

I'll kill that brat, Cai Minmin!

She fed Baylor onions!

What's that?

Just a chaotic daily life.

Hey! That's enough.

You left your shoes outside. Go and get them.

ONE AND A HALF YEAR LATER

They ran out of fennel.

How about dumplings with Chinese cabbage filling?

Okay.

Your dad didn't come with me.

He's at home.

I came with Mrs. Wang.

Get back to work.

I won't disturb you. I'm hanging up.

So is Fanxing still dating her young boyfriend?

Yes, she is.

That's rare.

That guy is studying abroad, but they're still going strong.

She said he's coming back in six months.

Do you think it will work out between them?

Our Fanxing is so much older than him.

What if he changes his mind after a while?

Come on.

So what if she's older?

Women live longer than men anyway.

She should get a younger guy.

Besides, a marriage might not last forever

and death does not discriminate.

Not every couple can last forever.

You're so open-minded.

Then why did you oppose your son

and Fang Shanshan back then?

That's different.

Fang Shanshan is a bad woman.

Let me tell you...

These look very fresh.

Are they sold for 39.80 yuan?

So expensive!

That's right.

When you're not the one implicated,

you would be open-minded.

Hello?

Hey.

What are you up to?

I'm currently in the shop,

but it's not that busy today.

How about you? What are you doing?

I'm missing you.

We haven't met for over three months.

Me too.

I really miss you.

Why don't I

visit you next week?

Next week?

But I wish to see you now. What should I do?

What can you do? Be good.

I'll go to see you as soon as I can, all right?

No.

I'm going to find myself an Anywhere Door.

Then I'll go through it and appear at your flower shop.

Okay, go look for it.

If you can come here right now through the door,

then I will...

Will you register our marriage?

Okay, but you have to be here first.

Welcome.

My goodness! What happened?

I really made it through!

You're back. When did you come back?

I came through the Anywhere Door.

Are you surprised?

May your days be filled with sunshine.

May there be roses in your embrace.

May you have a shelter from the storm.

May time be kind to you.

May you always be a young girl at heart.
