[Episode 21]

3
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:51,680
Did you see the Luminous Pearl

4
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:52,810
that night?

5
00:01:58,759 --> 00:01:59,570
Yes, I did.

6
00:02:01,290 --> 00:02:01,960
So

7
00:02:02,450 --> 00:02:03,570
when the explosion happened,

8
00:02:03,570 --> 00:02:04,450
you didn't...

9
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:30,760
I'm not a god.

10
00:02:35,130 --> 00:02:36,930
I'm just an ordinary person too.

11
00:02:38,690 --> 00:02:39,760
What do you mean?

12
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:42,030
You saved me.

13
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:48,520
Were you hurt?

14
00:02:49,010 --> 00:02:49,850
Let me see.

15
00:02:52,079 --> 00:02:52,850
I'm fine.

16
00:03:04,850 --> 00:03:05,910
How is your mother?

17
00:03:12,130 --> 00:03:14,590
Chris has arranged
a second surgery for her.

18
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,170
It went fairly well,

19
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:17,890
but I'll have to go

20
00:03:18,090 --> 00:03:20,150
and see her in person to know for sure.

21
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,130
You should go back soon.

22
00:03:30,970 --> 00:03:32,320
When people are sick,

23
00:03:34,079 --> 00:03:36,140
they need their family by their side.

24
00:03:42,980 --> 00:03:43,870
I'm sorry.

25
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,360
I even asked you before

26
00:03:48,970 --> 00:03:51,170
if you wanted to go to Nanjing together.

27
00:03:51,570 --> 00:03:54,370
I never thought I'd be the one
who couldn't make it.

28
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,120
We'll have plenty of time in the future.

29
00:04:01,450 --> 00:04:02,780
But your mom can't wait.

30
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:05,320
After major surgery,

31
00:04:06,450 --> 00:04:08,730
a patient's mood is
the most important thing.

32
00:04:08,730 --> 00:04:09,970
If you stay with her,

33
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:11,490
she'll feel better.

34
00:04:12,570 --> 00:04:14,100
It's good for her recovery.

35
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:21,570

He left when I arrived.

70
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:06,490
My phone.

71
00:07:35,370 --> 00:07:37,080
I'm planning to leave Manshi.

72
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,240
Maybe I'll go somewhere far away
to try my luck.

73
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,490
I won't be using this phone number
and this WeChat account anymore.

74
00:07:43,490 --> 00:07:45,550
Once I've settled down in a new place,

75
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,090
I'll contact you again.

76
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:07,050
Sanlai.

77
00:08:10,410 --> 00:08:11,460
Tomorrow...

78
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,170
help me cancel my phone number.

79
00:08:18,490 --> 00:08:19,280
Brandy,

80
00:08:19,860 --> 00:08:21,660
isn't this too cruel to Jiang Mu?

81
00:08:25,420 --> 00:08:26,380
Cancel it.

82
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:15,800
Happy birthday,

83
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:17,110
Zhao.

84
00:09:43,680 --> 00:09:45,940
Mu's presence lingers everywhere here.

85
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:48,040
Her laughter

86
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:50,700
still seems to ring in my ears.

87
00:09:53,010 --> 00:09:55,140
But I have to say goodbye to all of this.

88
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:57,370
I...

89
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:02,820
I can't become a burden to her.

90
00:10:04,990 --> 00:10:06,590
As long as she's happy,

91
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,800
that's all that matters.

92
00:10:31,250 --> 00:10:33,580
You've really decided to go back to China?

93
00:10:36,490 --> 00:10:38,090
I'll go back to school first,

94
00:10:38,610 --> 00:10:40,610
then see what I can build from there.

95
00:10:42,680 --> 00:10:44,730
Can you really bear to
leave the garage behind?

96
00:10:44,730 --> 00:10:45,780
I said back then,

97
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:47,610
once the matter with Wan's was settled,

98
00:10:47,610 --> 00:10:48,610
I'd close it down.

99
00:10:51,010 --> 00:10:51,760
I know.

100
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,880
By that time, you were already planning to
take Jiang Mu with you.

101
00:10:59,560 --> 00:11:00,560
Once you leave,

102
00:11:01,370 --> 00:11:03,430
our brotherhood will really be over.

103
00:11:06,330 --> 00:11:07,260
It won't be over.

104
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:09,890
You two will come visit me
in China, won't you?

105
00:11:09,890 --> 00:11:10,490
Alright.

106
00:11:11,010 --> 00:11:12,290
Make something of yourself.

107
00:11:12,290 --> 00:11:13,690
When you're successful,

108
00:11:13,820 --> 00:11:15,220
we'll come leech off you.

109
00:11:16,850 --> 00:11:17,850
It's a deal, then.

110
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:34,180
Pick up the pace.

111
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:35,440
Mu will be here soon.

112
00:11:36,010 --> 00:11:36,810
Don't rush me,

113
00:11:36,850 --> 00:11:38,330
or I'll cut my hand.

114
00:11:40,330 --> 00:11:42,450
You have a comeback for everything I say.

115
00:11:42,450 --> 00:11:43,510
Hurry up and think.

116
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:45,570
When Mu comes later,

117
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,090
if she asks about Zhao,

118
00:11:48,090 --> 00:11:49,440
what should we tell her?

119
00:11:52,490 --> 00:11:54,280
Just say Jin Zhao went away
to look for better opportunities

120
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:55,370
and never came back.

121
00:11:55,370 --> 00:11:56,730
Fine, fine, say it like that!

122
00:11:56,730 --> 00:11:58,090
What if she asks about

123
00:11:58,210 --> 00:11:59,680
his address or phone number?

124
00:11:59,680 --> 00:12:00,280
What then?

125
00:12:00,490 --> 00:12:01,560
Just say we don't have them either,

126
00:12:01,560 --> 00:12:03,360
and that he hasn't contacted us.

127
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:05,370
Do you even have a brain?

128
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:06,970
That obviously won't work.

129
00:12:07,010 --> 00:12:07,250
Mom.

130
00:12:07,250 --> 00:12:08,330
You think she'd buy that...

131
00:12:08,330 --> 00:12:09,900
I bought Mu's favorite

132
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:10,920
strawberry milkshake.

133
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:11,560
Good.

134
00:12:13,010 --> 00:12:13,730
Xin,

135
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,010
when Mu comes,

136
00:12:16,680 --> 00:12:18,090
be careful what you say.

137
00:12:18,370 --> 00:12:20,280
If she asks about Zhao,

138
00:12:20,490 --> 00:12:21,210
just say,

139
00:12:21,970 --> 00:12:22,770
"I don't know.

140
00:12:22,970 --> 00:12:24,160
I don't know anything."

141
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:24,680
Okay?

142
00:12:24,970 --> 00:12:26,520
That's lying.

143
00:12:28,010 --> 00:12:29,760
You're just a child. What do you know?

144
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:30,680
Take this over there.

145
00:12:30,680 --> 00:12:31,740
I know everything.

146
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,130
You and Dad are just being cruel.

147
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,260
Did you hear that? Even our child says so.

148
00:12:42,490 --> 00:12:43,730
Tell me—are we being

149
00:12:43,780 --> 00:12:44,740
cruel here?

150
00:12:46,370 --> 00:12:48,490
Isn't it all for their own good?

151
00:12:53,610 --> 00:12:56,070
Mrs. Zhao, did Jin Zhao
ever come back later?

152
00:13:01,090 --> 00:13:01,920
No.

153
00:13:04,490 --> 00:13:06,250
Before heading out to make his own way,

154
00:13:06,250 --> 00:13:07,780
he came back home for a meal.

155
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:11,660
At that time, he told your dad that

156
00:13:12,330 --> 00:13:13,130
if

157
00:13:13,680 --> 00:13:15,960
he managed to settle down over there,

158
00:13:17,050 --> 00:13:18,810
he might never come back.

159
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:20,450
"Settled down?"

160
00:13:21,590 --> 00:13:22,630
What do you mean?

161
00:13:23,210 --> 00:13:24,870
Is he abandoning this family?

162
00:13:27,410 --> 00:13:28,200
Well...

163
00:13:33,570 --> 00:13:34,400
Mu,

164
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,240
he's not your father's
biological son, after all.

165
00:13:39,210 --> 00:13:41,540
All these years he's lived alone outside,

166
00:13:41,900 --> 00:13:44,230
precisely because he didn't want us to...

167
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,210
didn't want us to
worry too much about him.

168
00:13:47,730 --> 00:13:48,400
So,

169
00:13:48,680 --> 00:13:51,740
whatever ideas he has,
or whatever decisions he makes,

170
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:53,590
we...

171
00:13:54,330 --> 00:13:56,330
have no position to influence him.

172
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:12,540
Mrs. Zhao, I'm going out for a while.

173
00:14:12,540 --> 00:14:14,140
Don't wait for me for dinner.

174
00:14:48,490 --> 00:14:49,250
Sanlai,

175
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,160
you closed your pet shop?

176
00:14:51,850 --> 00:14:52,640
Jiang Mu,

177
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,320
weren't you studying in Canada?

178
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,220
You're back in Manshi now?

179
00:15:00,580 --> 00:15:02,510
Do you have any news about Jin Zhao?

180
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:04,520
Brandy?

181
00:15:05,060 --> 00:15:07,400
I haven't been in contact with him
for a long time either.

182
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,730
That rascal.
Who knows where he ran off to?

183
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:11,650
Not even a word to his own buddy!

184
00:15:11,860 --> 00:15:13,580
Stop looking for him. That rascal.

185
00:15:13,580 --> 00:15:15,310
Just forget about him already.

186
00:15:15,470 --> 00:15:16,660
Aren't there many

187
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,490
handsome blonde, blue-eyed guys in Canada?

188
00:15:18,490 --> 00:15:20,010
You should get to know some.

189
00:15:20,010 --> 00:15:23,010
They're definitely better than
that rascal, Brandy.

190
00:16:55,930 --> 00:17:02,830
[Three years later]

191
00:17:08,770 --> 00:17:10,300
You live in Beijing, right?

192
00:17:10,369 --> 00:17:11,510
Yeah, I live in Beijing.

193
00:17:11,510 --> 00:17:12,660
It's cold there.

194
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:13,730
Come on.

195
00:17:14,849 --> 00:17:15,640
Come on, welcome.

196
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:16,430
Thank you very much.

197
00:17:16,430 --> 00:17:17,369
-Merry Christmas.
-Here comes the fish!

198
00:17:17,369 --> 00:17:18,530
Merry Christmas.

199
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:19,329
Cheers.

200
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:23,880
Mu.

201
00:17:24,810 --> 00:17:25,869
This is wonderful.

202
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,200
Thank you so much for all of this, Mu.

203
00:17:28,290 --> 00:17:30,490
This Christmas feels especially nice.

204
00:17:31,090 --> 00:17:32,490
Thank you for joining us,

205
00:17:32,670 --> 00:17:34,330
and I'm thankful that your mom

206
00:17:34,530 --> 00:17:35,660
has recovered well.

207
00:17:36,530 --> 00:17:37,530
I'll go get her.

208
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,090
Eat more later,

209
00:17:39,370 --> 00:17:39,930
okay?

210
00:17:40,290 --> 00:17:41,130
Come on, Nick.

211
00:17:41,230 --> 00:17:42,130
Keep her company, will you?

212
00:17:42,130 --> 00:17:42,680
Okay.

213
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,600
Mu, did you make
all these dishes yourself?

214
00:17:46,690 --> 00:17:48,500
Did you cook often before?

215
00:17:50,130 --> 00:17:52,440
Would you believe me if I said

216
00:17:52,750 --> 00:17:55,680
I'd never cooked a complete meal
before coming here?

217
00:17:57,920 --> 00:17:59,650
This is incredibly delicious.

218
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:01,090
People,

219
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,480
they never stay the same.

220
00:18:21,630 --> 00:18:24,560
You should get her number.

221
00:18:27,540 --> 00:18:29,340
Hey, I would like to say, like...

222
00:18:29,870 --> 00:18:30,350
Sorry.

223
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:31,810
I'd like... I want to...

224
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,360
Can I have your number or some...

225
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,080
Bro, no.

226
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:38,800
Bro.

227
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:52,920
Mu,

228
00:18:53,290 --> 00:18:54,330
I ground this coffee myself.

229
00:18:54,330 --> 00:18:55,790
Would you like to try some?

230
00:18:58,480 --> 00:18:59,480
No, thanks.

231
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:00,610
Why do you never drink

232
00:19:00,610 --> 00:19:02,010
the coffee I make for you?

233
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:03,640
I'm just afraid that
if I drink too much coffee,

234
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,440
I won't be able to sleep at night.

235
00:19:06,890 --> 00:19:08,890
I'm meeting a few friends later.

236
00:19:09,050 --> 00:19:10,310
Would you like to join?

237
00:19:11,530 --> 00:19:12,160
Alright.

238
00:19:12,890 --> 00:19:14,530
Actually, there aren't any friends.

239
00:19:14,530 --> 00:19:15,400
It's just me.

240
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:18,570
Why do you reject me

241
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:19,930
every time I ask you out?

242
00:19:20,130 --> 00:19:21,720
Can't you give me a chance?

243
00:19:23,750 --> 00:19:25,720
Nick, I've noticed your Chinese

244
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:27,050
has gotten really good.

245
00:19:27,250 --> 00:19:28,290
But I'm sorry,

246
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,050
I have to turn you down again.

247
00:19:32,290 --> 00:19:33,960
Mu, you're so heartless.

248
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:36,240
Fine then,

249
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:37,680
I'll drink it myself.

250
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,810
You know that, uh,
Character A in the game?

251
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,370
My proficiency is through the roof.

252
00:19:53,890 --> 00:19:54,750
Do you want a go?

253
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,490
I can give you a hand
and show you how it's done.

254
00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:58,800
And you know what?

255
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,720
Now they've got so many competitions
with a lot of prize money as well.

256
00:20:02,810 --> 00:20:05,130
So, you never know. I could be rich.

257
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,890
At the riverbank,
I caught the biggest fish, really.

258
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:10,400
I was around there every morning,

259
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,240
from six to four to six, all clock.

260
00:20:13,530 --> 00:20:15,200
From four to six, I am...

261
00:20:15,230 --> 00:20:17,860
I was waiting and waiting.

262
00:20:18,650 --> 00:20:19,610
I'm telling you,

263
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:21,050
that basketball game the other day

264
00:20:21,050 --> 00:20:22,510
almost gave me a heart attack.

265
00:20:22,510 --> 00:20:24,430
First, we were up by so many points,

266
00:20:24,430 --> 00:20:28,960
but then, towards the middle of the game,
ultimately, I chucked a three-pointer.

267
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,960
Causing us to win!
Putting a victory for our team!

268
00:20:34,130 --> 00:20:35,860
Have a sip of coffee if you want.

269
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:51,680
Is this coffee good?

270
00:21:06,730 --> 00:21:09,460
It's probably not as good as
the one I make, right?

271
00:21:20,410 --> 00:21:21,810
The taste of my coffee...

272
00:21:24,050 --> 00:21:25,450
Do you still remember it?

273
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:43,590
Why is it sweet?

274
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,410
I won't let you have bitter things.

275
00:21:54,890 --> 00:21:55,720
I remember.

276
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,410
By the way, I've got a basketball game
tomorrow. Do you want to come?

277
00:22:10,410 --> 00:22:11,170
Sorry.

278
00:22:12,390 --> 00:22:13,350
I'm tired.

279
00:22:23,410 --> 00:22:25,740
You should go out
and see more of the world.

280
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,090
Maybe you'll find

281
00:22:29,250 --> 00:22:31,650
there are many men out there
better than me.

282
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:32,530
See?

283
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:34,610
I'm already 26 years old.

284
00:22:35,770 --> 00:22:36,970
After all these years

285
00:22:37,530 --> 00:22:38,850
of drifting and crossing paths

286
00:22:38,850 --> 00:22:40,180
with countless people,

287
00:22:41,050 --> 00:22:42,530
I still can't forget you.

288
00:22:48,860 --> 00:22:50,460
By the way, I'm from Nanjing.

289
00:22:50,660 --> 00:22:51,280
I did my undergraduate studies

290
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:52,450
at Nanjing University
of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

291
00:22:52,450 --> 00:22:53,360
NUAA?

292
00:22:56,370 --> 00:22:58,720
I once wanted to study at NUAA too.

293
00:22:59,270 --> 00:23:00,640
But somehow, one thing led to another,

294
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:01,970
and I ended up in Canada.

295
00:23:02,090 --> 00:23:02,850
Really?

296
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:04,570
We have quite a connection then.

297
00:23:04,570 --> 00:23:05,960
We're even in the same field
for graduate studies.

298
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,160
We should talk more about our research.

299
00:23:47,610 --> 00:23:48,290
Hey there.

300
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:50,030
You're so dedicated.

301
00:23:50,030 --> 00:23:51,360
The pride of our nation.

302
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:52,960
Thank you.

303
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:58,950
May I take a look?

304
00:24:18,850 --> 00:24:20,200
Are you into fountain pens?

305
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:20,960
A little bit.

306
00:24:22,610 --> 00:24:23,740
A gift from a friend?

307
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:26,420
From my ex-boyfriend.

308
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:30,640
You must've dated for quite a while.

309
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:31,330
A week.

310
00:24:31,490 --> 00:24:33,550
A week, and he gave you a pen like this?

311
00:24:36,090 --> 00:24:37,200
An 18K gold nib,

312
00:24:37,530 --> 00:24:38,640
and the barrel and cap

313
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,240
are pure silver with engravings.

314
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:41,570
This is quite a nice pen.

315
00:24:42,100 --> 00:24:43,960
Your ex must've been pretty rich.

316
00:24:52,940 --> 00:24:54,140
He didn't have money.

317
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:56,920
He just gave me the best thing he had

318
00:24:58,060 --> 00:24:59,790
when he was at his lowest point.

319
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:08,820
That house was quite magical.

320
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:10,240
The appliances were always breaking down,

321
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,290
one after another,

322
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,200
as if they'd planned it together.

323
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,260
Jin Zhao always had no choice
but to go back and fix them.

324
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:19,960
Your dad is good at driving

325
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:21,810
but not much else.

326
00:25:22,190 --> 00:25:23,090
Being with him

327
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:24,160
is exhausting.

328
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,340
That's not true.
His cooking is actually very good.

329
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,090
At least better than Jin Zhao's cooking.

330
00:25:32,360 --> 00:25:34,340
Jin Zhao can cook too?

331
00:25:35,380 --> 00:25:36,070
Yes.

332
00:25:36,530 --> 00:25:37,660
Not only can he cook,

333
00:25:37,770 --> 00:25:40,160
but he can also box, drive,

334
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:41,240
and fix cars.

335
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:43,990
And repair home appliances too.

336
00:25:43,990 --> 00:25:44,640
Yes,

337
00:25:44,930 --> 00:25:46,590
he can do just about anything.

338
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,810
Although he was constantly framed
by Wan's,

339
00:25:54,810 --> 00:25:56,370
he never gave up

340
00:25:56,530 --> 00:25:57,990
or felt sorry for himself.

341
00:25:58,370 --> 00:25:59,290
In my opinion,

342
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,900
he's a person
with a strong sense of justice.

343
00:26:04,060 --> 00:26:05,540
What is he doing now?

344
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:12,160
I don't know.

345
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:14,880
We haven't been in touch for a long time.

346
00:26:22,370 --> 00:26:24,480
The weather is so cool today.

347
00:26:25,010 --> 00:26:27,140
So after school, do you have any plans?

348
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,050
Maybe we can take a walk.

349
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:30,770
Fine.

350
00:26:31,260 --> 00:26:32,260
That sounds good.

351
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:33,400
Jiang Mu.

352
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:36,370
What are you doing here?

353
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:41,680
Thank you.

354
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:42,850
You're welcome.

355
00:26:45,130 --> 00:26:46,370
I'm here for work,

356
00:26:46,570 --> 00:26:49,030
on assignment for a collaborative project.

357
00:26:49,130 --> 00:26:50,190
After graduation,

358
00:26:50,290 --> 00:26:51,890
you really did go to Nanjing.

359
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,570
Now you're at a branch of
the Chinese Academy of Sciences?

360
00:26:54,570 --> 00:26:55,610
I've been to many places,

361
00:26:55,610 --> 00:26:56,540
but I still think

362
00:26:56,850 --> 00:26:58,250
our hometown is the best.

363
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:01,480
I spend most of my time
at the Purple Mountain Observatory now.

364
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,130
That's where the asteroid "China"
was discovered.

365
00:27:04,130 --> 00:27:07,790
They've achieved outstanding
research results in recent years.

366
00:27:08,050 --> 00:27:09,200
That's great.

367
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,050
I'm really envious.

368
00:27:11,330 --> 00:27:12,640
I haven't had a chance

369
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,000
to visit the old observatory site
on the mountain to see the gnomon,

370
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,290
armillary sphere, and other ancient
astronomical instruments.

371
00:27:17,290 --> 00:27:18,490
When do you graduate?

372
00:27:18,810 --> 00:27:20,410
Soon, just a few more months.

373
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:22,370
I happen to have

374
00:27:22,370 --> 00:27:23,770
a research assistant position open.

375
00:27:23,770 --> 00:27:24,900
Are you interested?

376
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,180
I could save it for you.

377
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:29,200
I...

378
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:30,640
No rush.

379
00:27:30,780 --> 00:27:32,960
You still have several months
until graduation.

380
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,420
Think about it carefully.

381
00:27:37,850 --> 00:27:38,450
By the way,

382
00:27:38,770 --> 00:27:40,810
there's a small gathering here tomorrow.

383
00:27:40,810 --> 00:27:42,870
It's with colleagues who came with me

384
00:27:42,940 --> 00:27:44,420
and some local peers.

385
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:45,720
Why don't

386
00:27:46,090 --> 00:27:46,820
you come too?

387
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:48,930
I can introduce you around.

388
00:27:48,930 --> 00:27:49,540
Okay.

389
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,680
Sorry, everyone, I'm late.

390
00:28:13,770 --> 00:28:14,400
Jiang Mu.

391
00:28:14,730 --> 00:28:16,810
Zhijie, aren't you going to introduce us?

392
00:28:16,810 --> 00:28:17,920
Allow me to introduce you all.

393
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:19,450
This is my junior, Jiang Mu.

394
00:28:19,530 --> 00:28:20,370
Nice to meet you.

395
00:28:20,370 --> 00:28:21,300
Nice to meet you.

396
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:23,370
This is my supervisor,

397
00:28:23,370 --> 00:28:23,890
Professor Gan.

398
00:28:23,890 --> 00:28:24,810
Nice to meet you, Professor.

399
00:28:24,810 --> 00:28:27,240
And these two are my colleagues
from the CAS.

400
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,100
Those over there are my classmates
from Melbourne.

401
00:28:30,290 --> 00:28:31,150
Come on, have a seat.

402
00:28:31,150 --> 00:28:31,720
Hurry.

403
00:28:32,810 --> 00:28:33,480
Sit here.

404
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:37,090
Come on, cheers.

405
00:28:42,290 --> 00:28:44,270
Mu, welcome to this gathering.

406
00:28:44,290 --> 00:28:45,550
Thank you, Professor.

407
00:28:48,330 --> 00:28:50,130
What's your field of study?

408
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:51,800
I'm studying astronomy.

409
00:28:52,590 --> 00:28:54,990
Not many girls
study this field these days.

410
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:57,480
That is...

411
00:28:57,770 --> 00:28:59,900
an exquisite die with a red bean heart?

412
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:02,570
The agate within the jade die is

413
00:29:02,570 --> 00:29:04,960
carved into the shape
of red beans—love beans.

414
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,730
This kind of hollow carving
with a red bean

415
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:08,890
inserted inside

416
00:29:09,290 --> 00:29:10,530
makes all six sides appear red—

417
00:29:10,530 --> 00:29:13,290
that's what we call
"an exquisite die with a red bean heart."

418
00:29:13,290 --> 00:29:15,880
A symbol of deep longing.

419
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,250
In ancient times, it was a token of love.

420
00:29:18,250 --> 00:29:19,850
It was popular for a while back then.

421
00:29:19,850 --> 00:29:21,290
Rarely seen nowadays.

422
00:29:21,610 --> 00:29:22,410
Very special.

423
00:29:23,850 --> 00:29:25,110
You're giving it to me?

424
00:29:26,330 --> 00:29:28,260
Now you're willing to give it to me?

425
00:29:28,530 --> 00:29:30,700
Before, no matter how I asked,
you wouldn't give it to me.

426
00:29:30,700 --> 00:29:31,700
So stingy.

427
00:29:33,090 --> 00:29:35,290
I really couldn't give it to you before.

428
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:36,880
But now...

429
00:29:37,140 --> 00:29:38,750
Now why can you?

430
00:29:42,750 --> 00:29:45,350
I'd have to start
with the origin of this thing.

431
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,640
I'll tell you about it slowly
in the future.

432
00:30:02,290 --> 00:30:04,330
I've tried to see the world.

433
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:06,130
All these years,

434
00:30:06,770 --> 00:30:08,640
I've met many excellent people.

435
00:30:09,570 --> 00:30:10,810
But no one

436
00:30:11,420 --> 00:30:13,180
can make me feel anything.

437
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:15,290
Because

438
00:30:16,330 --> 00:30:18,000
none of them is you.

439
00:30:31,570 --> 00:30:32,200
Mom,

440
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:34,770
I want to go back to China for my career.

441
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:38,570
Back to Nanjing.

442
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:47,130
Senior!

443
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:49,190
Jiang Mu.

444
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:50,850
What is it?

445
00:30:51,090 --> 00:30:53,440
You mentioned yesterday
that you need a research assistant.

446
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:54,240
Is that true?

447
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:55,810
Of course it's true.

448
00:30:57,110 --> 00:30:58,640
You've decided so quickly?

449
00:30:58,960 --> 00:30:59,680
Yes.

450
00:30:59,810 --> 00:31:01,660
I'll go back as soon as I graduate.

451
00:31:01,660 --> 00:31:02,850
Didn't you say your family was here

452
00:31:02,850 --> 00:31:04,000
and you weren't planning to go back?

453
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:04,860
I am going back.

454
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:06,810
I also want to contribute to
our country's aerospace program,

455
00:31:06,810 --> 00:31:08,270
even if it's just a little.

456
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:09,570
Alright.

457
00:31:09,630 --> 00:31:11,690
I'll contact them for you right away.

458
00:31:19,490 --> 00:31:20,330
Dad.

459
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,050
Dad, Dad.

460
00:31:22,770 --> 00:31:24,850
Look, I've finished my homework.

461
00:31:25,370 --> 00:31:26,160
You promised

462
00:31:26,370 --> 00:31:27,770
to take me to the concert.

463
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:29,610
Did I ever promise you that?

464
00:31:29,610 --> 00:31:30,570
Yes, you did.

465
00:31:30,660 --> 00:31:32,290
You can't break your promise.

466
00:31:32,290 --> 00:31:33,490
Why don't I remember?

467
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,130
Your dad said he would,
so he won't break his promise.

468
00:31:36,130 --> 00:31:37,930
Come on, sit down. Food's ready.

469
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:38,720
Mom,

470
00:31:39,130 --> 00:31:40,280
you have to back me up.

471
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:41,410
I know. Now sit down.

472
00:31:44,370 --> 00:31:45,330
Mu, come on.

473
00:31:45,610 --> 00:31:46,640
Try my cooking

474
00:31:46,850 --> 00:31:48,250
and see if I've improved.

475
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:54,460
Has there been any news

476
00:31:54,580 --> 00:31:55,620
from Jin Zhao?

477
00:31:59,960 --> 00:32:01,130
He sends money back,

478
00:32:01,890 --> 00:32:03,820
but he himself has never come back.

479
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:05,770
We haven't heard much from him
in a long time.

480
00:32:05,770 --> 00:32:06,480
Yes,

481
00:32:06,890 --> 00:32:08,950
he hasn't come back for so many years.

482
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:09,960
Who knows,

483
00:32:10,370 --> 00:32:13,100
maybe he's already
settled down somewhere else.

484
00:32:15,050 --> 00:32:15,810
Right?

485
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:19,630
Eat up.

486
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:21,100
Have some more.

487
00:32:34,620 --> 00:32:35,480
Have some more.

488
00:32:35,810 --> 00:32:36,610
Thank you.

489
00:32:40,090 --> 00:32:41,850
Seriously, how long did it take you
to pass the exam?

490
00:32:41,850 --> 00:32:43,970
I got in the second year after you left.

491
00:32:43,970 --> 00:32:44,920
I've already graduated

492
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:46,370
and returned home
to take over the family business.

493
00:32:46,370 --> 00:32:48,680
I'm working as a purchasing manager
at my dad's factory.

494
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,540
I'm doing pretty well for myself.

495
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:52,120
I can see that.

496
00:32:52,850 --> 00:32:53,710
What about you?

497
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:55,360
How have you been lately?

498
00:32:57,330 --> 00:32:58,130
Oh, right!

499
00:32:58,570 --> 00:33:00,160
I always thought

500
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,000
you and Brandy were related.

501
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:03,330
I kept quiet about it for years

502
00:33:03,330 --> 00:33:05,050
and never dared to say anything.

503
00:33:05,050 --> 00:33:07,330
It wasn't until last year,
when Brandy came back, that I realized

504
00:33:07,330 --> 00:33:09,640
you two aren't actually related by blood.

505
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:10,680
He came back?

506
00:33:11,370 --> 00:33:12,330
When?

507
00:33:12,610 --> 00:33:14,240
Early last year.

508
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,130
There was a problem with a shipment
at my dad's factory.

509
00:33:17,130 --> 00:33:18,960
I couldn't find a replacement anywhere.

510
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:20,760
Then I got a call from a stranger.

511
00:33:20,770 --> 00:33:21,920
He said he had the goods

512
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:23,720
and quoted me a price

513
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,850
lower than the market average.

514
00:33:27,100 --> 00:33:28,160
I thought it was a scam,

515
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,090
so I insisted on meeting in person.

516
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:31,200
To my surprise,

517
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:32,640
it was Brandy!

518
00:33:38,620 --> 00:33:39,790
How is he doing?

519
00:33:40,370 --> 00:33:41,770
I'm not really sure

520
00:33:41,770 --> 00:33:43,370
how he's doing now.

521
00:33:43,850 --> 00:33:46,160
I offered to take him out for a meal

522
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:47,290
to properly thank him that day.

523
00:33:47,290 --> 00:33:48,800
But he said he was short on time

524
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:49,680
and that he could only stay for one day.

525
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:51,840
He helped us connect with new suppliers

526
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:53,040
and left the next day.

527
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:54,600
Oh, right.

528
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,890
I remember he brought someone
with him that day,

529
00:33:56,890 --> 00:33:57,780
called him "Boss,"

530
00:33:57,780 --> 00:33:59,780
and was very respectful toward him.

531
00:34:05,730 --> 00:34:06,810
Then... how was

532
00:34:07,570 --> 00:34:08,850
his health?

533
00:34:10,770 --> 00:34:11,730
He looked worn out.

534
00:34:11,730 --> 00:34:13,810
Probably tired from traveling.

535
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:15,730
But he was still as handsome as ever.

536
00:34:15,730 --> 00:34:17,460
He hasn't lost his charm at all.

537
00:34:21,090 --> 00:34:22,630
It was precisely because of the time

538
00:34:22,630 --> 00:34:24,650
when Brandy helped me turn things around

539
00:34:24,650 --> 00:34:25,909
that I was finally able

540
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:27,770
to establish my authority
at my dad's factory

541
00:34:27,770 --> 00:34:29,040
and gain some real influence.

542
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:31,300
No one called me a nepotism hire anymore.

543
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:33,960
Later, I found out

544
00:34:34,290 --> 00:34:36,400
why Brandy suddenly contacted me.

545
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:39,250
Why?

546
00:34:40,730 --> 00:34:41,940
Do you remember

547
00:34:41,980 --> 00:34:43,670
when you brought Brandy

548
00:34:43,690 --> 00:34:45,600
to my dad's factory to fix the car?

549
00:34:47,250 --> 00:34:49,230
At that time, Brandy told me

550
00:34:49,250 --> 00:34:50,580
he owed me a favor

551
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,080
and would repay it someday.

552
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,210
I thought he was just being polite.

553
00:34:54,210 --> 00:34:55,920
I had completely forgotten about it.

554
00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,960
I never expected him to remember
after all these years!

555
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,560
I really respect him
for being a man of his word!

556
00:35:03,700 --> 00:35:04,370
Cheers.

557
00:35:07,220 --> 00:35:09,820
He even remembered the favor
he owed to Pan Kai,

558
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:11,960
so why did he promise to contact me

559
00:35:12,250 --> 00:35:13,710
but never follow through?

560
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:19,330
Do you have his contact information?

561
00:35:19,330 --> 00:35:20,520
Could you share it with me?

562
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:21,520
You don't have it?

563
00:35:24,890 --> 00:35:27,020
I'll send it to you. I'll send it to you.

564
00:35:29,260 --> 00:35:30,320
I've sent it to you.

565
00:35:31,890 --> 00:35:33,440
He came back last year.

566
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:34,980
His family is here,

567
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,440
so there's no reason
he wouldn't go see Dad.

568
00:35:37,850 --> 00:35:39,480
He's not a heartless person.

569
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:41,400
Back when things were so difficult,

570
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,560
he even risked breaking the law to
modify cars to help pay for Xin's surgery

571
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:44,890
and support the family.

572
00:35:44,940 --> 00:35:46,000
There's no way
he would just disappear forever

573
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:47,400
after the case was over.

574
00:35:48,330 --> 00:35:49,890
But why would Dad say

575
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,520
he hasn't come home for several years?

576
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:53,810
It's also possible

577
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:55,640
that he did come back,

578
00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:57,480
but for some reason,

579
00:35:57,650 --> 00:35:59,250
Dad chose to hide it from me.

580
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:01,760
But what reason could Dad possibly have

581
00:36:01,770 --> 00:36:03,080
for doing that?

582
00:36:10,690 --> 00:36:12,890
Dad, I'm already on the plane.

583
00:36:13,130 --> 00:36:14,810
Take care of yourself and Mrs. Zhao.

584
00:36:14,810 --> 00:36:16,040
When Xin's on holiday,

585
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:17,480
bring her to Nanjing for a visit.

586
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:18,040
Okay.

587
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:19,570
Have a safe journey.

588
00:36:19,770 --> 00:36:21,170
Let me know when you land.

589
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:27,040
She's boarded the plane.

590
00:36:32,330 --> 00:36:33,190
Do you think...

591
00:36:34,470 --> 00:36:36,640
she's found out we lied to her?

592
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:41,560
Probably not.

593
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,180
Did she ask you about Zhao in private?

594
00:36:53,030 --> 00:36:55,070
Mu is such a good girl.

595
00:36:55,730 --> 00:36:57,860
Is it okay for us to lie to her like that?

596
00:36:58,200 --> 00:36:59,860
This was Jin Zhao's decision.

597
00:37:05,250 --> 00:37:06,360
I feel so uneasy...

598
00:37:11,210 --> 00:37:12,940
But this is all we can do for now.

599
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,210
Brother, I want strawberries!

600
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:48,690
Zhao.

601
00:38:49,710 --> 00:38:50,750
I'm back.

602
00:38:52,170 --> 00:38:53,250
Do you remember?

603
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,210
This is where we grew up together.

604
00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:58,960
I told you before—

605
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:00,690
when I was little,

606
00:39:01,170 --> 00:39:02,440
I'd secretly come back to our old house

607
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:04,370
and leave my contact information,

608
00:39:04,810 --> 00:39:06,400
hoping that one day, when you returned,

609
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:07,480
you could find me.

610
00:39:08,250 --> 00:39:09,770
At that time, I had a hope

611
00:39:10,730 --> 00:39:12,330
that as long as you came back,

612
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,380
maybe you'd use the same method

613
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:15,860
to leave me some messages.

614
00:39:16,770 --> 00:39:19,210
So I could find you too.

615
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:21,360
But...

616
00:39:22,310 --> 00:39:23,420
Zhao, look.

617
00:39:24,060 --> 00:39:25,720
Everything here has changed.

618
00:39:26,580 --> 00:39:29,380
Changed so much
I don't even recognize it anymore.

619
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:31,360
Zhao,

620
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:33,950
can I still find you?

621
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:36,600
Where are you really?

622
00:39:38,210 --> 00:39:40,870
Are we really going to
miss each other like this?

623
00:39:41,650 --> 00:39:42,850
Should I really...

624
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:45,190
let you go?
