[Poisoned Love]

[Episode 20]

Shi Meng.

What happened to her?

Fang Yan.

She had a relapse.

It was my fault. When I got here...

Never mind.

Hurry up and treat her.

Me?

Can't you just kiss her?

Hold her first. I'll explain to you later.

Come.

Fang Yan!

How did she pass out?

She didn't pass out. She fell asleep.

She'll wake up in a while.

Fell asleep?

Take a look at this.

This is...

That day,

after he held Fang Yan,

she got better.

She thought it was me who held her...

and asked me to treat her.

So,

the person who can actually cure Fang Yan...

isn't me.

But you.

Only I can cure her.

Then, at the restaurant...

I lied to you.

I stole Dr Cui's notes...

on how to put Fang Yan into hypnosis.

Fang Yan didn't actually have a relapse that day.

I see.

So that's what happened.

You're awake.

Why are you here?

Where's Shi Yi?

Is Shi Yi alright? Where is Shi Yi?

He's fine.

Then, where did Shi Yi...

Where did he go?

I won't let you leave me again.

When did I ever leave you?

What are you doing?

Who's there?

Hold on a second.

I'm coming. I'm coming.

Zuo Yao,

it's been a while.

Why are you here?

What brings you here?

We're old friends after all. We should catch up.

What's the matter?

Am I not welcomed here?

I like what you've done with your house.

Just get straight to the point.

After all these years,

you're still as blunt as ever.

Fine.

Then I'll cut to the chase.

I'll be frank with you.

I came here today...

so that you'd ask Fang Yan...

to stay away from Shi Meng.

Gu Wei.

Don't you think it's ridiculous?

Fang Yan is an adult.

I can't control her.

Besides,

who she likes or wants to date...

is her freedom.

Fine.

Since you can't control her,

then I can't guarantee her safety.

Because I knew...

what Ni Na did last time.

Ni Na?

So last time, it was...

Gu Wei, I'm warning you.

Leave Fang Yan alone.

Sure, no problem.

But there's just one thing.

Tell her to stay away from Shi Meng.

Why didn't you lock the door? Yao Yao, I'm coming in.

-I'm going out again. -Stop right there.

How did she know I live here?

I have no idea.

It wasn't me. I honestly have no idea.

Why are you here?

So it has nothing to do with you?

-Nope. -I take that as a "yes".

Zuo Yao, why won't you believe me?

Why?

Ms Gu.

Done with your inspection?

My small house doesn't have a room...

for an honourable guest like you.

Hao Ying Jun,

your son is so big already?

-He... -He's my son.

Isn't your son Hao Ying Jun's son?

I'm too lazy to explain to you. Just leave.

So this is not your son?

No wonder he's so good-looking. He doesn't take after you at all.

Now wait a minute...

That's not right.

Both the timing and age match.

That time, both of you were together.

Could it be that... you cheated on him?

I cheated on him?

Speak for yourself.

Back then both of you had an affair.

Now you're trying to put the blame on me.

I've never seen...

such a ridiculous thing in all my life.

Me and him?

Come now, Yao Yao.

What did you mean by that?

Do you really think there was something between Gu Wei and me?

I've told you so,

so, so many times.

You're right.

I used to like Gu Wei back then,

-but it was over a decade ago. -Go on.

-Keep lying. -Zuo Yao.

You'd better set the record straight.

This is not something...

that Shi Meng should know.

Should I give you a hint?

On our graduation day...

You know very well what both of you have done.

On our graduation day,

I was overjoyed. Then I...

I was wasted.

I blacked out. I don't even remember how I got home.

Then you dumped me all of a sudden.

You don't have to explain.

I had seen everything that day.

Zuo Yao, don't get worked up.

Listen to me. You've misunderstood.

You don't have to explain. I know what I saw.

On our graduation day,

Hao Ying Jun was drunk, so I took him home.

As soon as we got inside his house, he threw up all over me.

Oh, come on.

Zuo Yao...

It was really dirty, so I took off my shirt,

went inside and cleaned myself.

Hao Ying Jun.

Hao Ying Jun,

I'm leaving.

He was flat out drunk.

What could happen between us?

You tell me.

Nothing could have happened. Really.

Absolutely nothing.

Zuo Yao, you know it full well.

For over a decade, Shi Meng has always been...

the guy I love.

Hao Ying Jun and I got together...

to make Shi Meng jealous.

Do you think Hao Ying Jun is...

Only you would see something in him. Not me.

No.

Wait a second.

Yao Yao, did you break up with me because of this?

Please let me explain.

If I had explained back then,

we wouldn't have wasted so many years without each other.

And you wouldn't...

have been with another man.

Another man?

Ever since I broke up with you,

I've been single. There's no other man.

Then who is Zuo You's father?

I don't want to talk about it.

Was it a surrogacy?

Even if it was a surrogacy,

the child should have a father.

He couldn't have been born from a rock.

I told you, Zuo You is my son.

Stop asking already.

Zuo... Zuo You.

When... When did you come back?

Don't argue any more.

I knew it.

I was adopted.

You...

How did you know? Who told you this?

So I really was adopted.

No.

How is that possible?

Listen to me.

What's there to explain?

You're not my biological mother.

He's not my biological father.

No. Listen to me, alright?

I've grown up.

I've always suspected it.

Blood relation is just a biological concept.

Whether or not we're related by blood,

Mum,

you are my one and only mother.

Okay, I'll do my homework now.

If I finish it now,

I might be able to catch the science story broadcast later.

That boy...

is something else.

He will achieve great things when he grows up.

-Zuo Yao. -Are you done yet?

Just leave if you're done.

Zuo Yao, I... I don't know...

You, too! Get out of here!

-Zuo Yao. -Leave!

Shi Meng, can you pinch me?

Why would I?

Because none of this feels real.

I think I am dreaming.

Silly.

So you despise me.

I'm just kidding.

Last time, you left me...

to let Shi Yi treat me.

But how did you find out about the truth this time?

Shi Yi told you, didn't he?

Then how did Shi Yi find out about this?

Is it because...

I like you better when you're silly.

Shi Yi, where are you going?

I'm going home.

Going home?

Why?

We wanted to buy you a meal.

Buy me a meal?

After such a big fiasco...

and all your help,

I should take you out...

to dinner as a token of appreciation.

Wait here. Don't go anywhere.

I'll go get changed.

Why didn't you tell her?

What should I tell her?

That I've lied to you...

and to her.

I knew it was a mistake since the beginning,

but I kept it from both of you.

I even...

I even hypnotised her...

and lied to you.

That's between you and her.

Besides, if anyone were to tell her the truth,

it shouldn't be me.

Looks like you don't have...

the heart to apologise to her either.

Are you going to run from it?

What?

Okay, okay. I'm coming.

-Let's go to Zuo Yao's place. -What's the matter?

Zuo You is missing. He ran away.

Calm down, Yao Yao.

Hurry up!

-Did you find him? -No. We've searched everywhere.

-Is he there? -What should I do?

-Is he there? -No, no!

-Yao Yao, calm down. -Yao Yao, what happened?

-How is Zuo You? -Fang Yan.

Zuo You found out he was adopted,

so he left a letter and ran away.

It was my fault. I didn't watch him properly.

Calm down. Did Zuo You say where he was going?

-What did he write? -Nothing much...

except he couldn't handle the truth and he wanted to take a walk.

What if he's kidnapped?

-Impossible. -That's impossible.

Just calm down.

Think about where he might go.

A kid should not be able to go too far.

-Yes, Yao Yao. Think about it. -Yes, think carefully.

Think about where he usually goes,

the kids he usually hangs out with...

-or his favourite food. -His favourite food.

What's his favourite food? His favourite food...

Coca-cola fried chicken. Fried chicken!

-Fried chicken. -Whenever he's sad,

-he'd eat fried chicken. -Fast food.

-Fast food restaurant. -Yes.

Nearby fast food places...

These are all the fried chicken places in the area.

-Let's split up. -The three of us will search south.

-You search north, okay? -Okay.

-I'll go with you. -You'd better don't go.

Someone might recognise you.

We need someone to stay back in case he comes home.

-You're right. -Let's go.

Thank you.

-We'll leave it to you, Shi Yi. -Thank you.

Let's go.

-Zuo You! -Zuo You!

Zuo You!

Zuo You!

-Zuo You! -Zuo You!

You You!

Wei Lin,

-look over there. We'll go there. -Alright.

-Zuo You! -Zuo You!

Zuo You!

-Hello. -Hello.

Have you seen a boy about this tall?

-He's missing. -No.

-Okay, thanks. -Sorry.

Thank you.

-Come, let's go over there. -Let's go.

[Mum,]

[this is the biggest thing that's happened...]

[in the seven years and nine months of my life.]

[It turns out that I was really adopted.]

[I thought I could take it,]

[but I realised the world of adults isn't that simple.]

[I need to go somewhere to gather my thoughts.]

[Don't miss me.]

[Yours truly, Zuo You.]

Zuo You?

Zuo You, are you here?

Zuo You.

Do you know...

how I knew you'd be in Fang Yan's room?

Let me tell you a secret.

When I was ten years old,

I also ran away from home.

Just like you,

I left a letter.

But after I left home,

I was scared.

I was afraid I would never see them again.

I was afraid they wouldn't want me back.

So I found the perfect place.

I hid under Shi Meng's bed.

Do something.

What did you do to the kid?

Me? He left without saying a word.

-How would I know? -Enough.

Let's go and find him.

Come on.

Those few hours I spent under the bed...

were the best memories of my childhood.

Because I saw how anxious they were for me.

I also knew...

that I was irreplaceable after all.

Zuo You,

do you feel the same way I did?

So...

why did you run away from home?

Zuo You,

who taught you to run away?

Do you know how worried your mum was?

She looked everywhere for you.

Her eyes are swollen from crying.

Mum, I'm sorry.

Well,

now that we've found him, everything's fine.

Right?

Safety first.

Since we've found Zuo You,

I'll take my leave.

Shi Yi, thank you for your help today.

Thank you.

We're seriously...

grateful to you.

Let me buy you a meal soon.

It's fine.

I just wanted to help the kid.

Shi Yi,

can I talk to you alone?

Why don't you take a walk?

It's boring staying in here. Right?

Go out and get some air.

Then I'll take him downstairs.

Don't worry. We won't go too far.

Wait a second.

It's cold outside. Put this on.

Go ahead.

Let's go.

Don't be angry.

What matters is we've found him. We'll talk about it later, okay?

I almost forgot.

I need to talk to someone at the office.

Got to go now. See you.

Do you know why I adopted Zuo You?

No, I don't.

I was pretty pessimistic about love.

After breaking up with you,

I never wanted to date again.

I just want to be alone.

Later,

because of a coincidence,

I met You You...

who was abandoned in the hospital.

Actually,

I wanted to send him to a welfare agency.

But when I held him in my arms,

I couldn't let go of him.

At that moment, I thought...

maybe it was god's will.

Maybe the little guy and I are destined to take care of each other.

Ever since I adopted Zuo You,

nothing else seems to matter anymore.

He became the driving force in my life,

my everything.

In fact,

I thought of reaching out to you at first.

But I was afraid my worst fears...

would be confirmed.

Well...

I'm very sorry. I really am.

You know...

It's funny.

I've been shameless all my life.

Do you think I'd falter when you needed me the most?

I could've explained everything to you.

It wasn't entirely your fault.

I was in the wrong, too.

Back then,

if only I would swallow my pride...

-If only I had asked you... -Stop it.

Stop it. It's all in the past, alright?

From now on, you can rest easy.

I, Hao Ying Jun, will always stay by your side.

I won't let you shoulder the burden all by yourself.

I've got your back.

I'm serious.

Shi Yi,

why do you think...

our parents abandoned us?

I have no idea why they abandoned us.

But I choose to believe...

they had their difficulties.

They had no other choice.

The most important thing is...

we met our mums.

Right?

Will Mum...

abandon me again...

just like my biological mother did?

Do you think your mum loves you?

I don't know.

Silly boy.

If she doesn't love you,

she wouldn't have went to such lengths to look for you...

only to abandon you again.

She will love you forever.

Is that true?

Of course it is true.

That's great!

I was afraid I would lose my mum!

I didn't expect Shi Yi would find Zuo You first.

I was surprised, too.

We should pay more attention to a child's emotions,

especially at this age.

He must be devastated upon hearing the truth.

Hopefully the fried chicken we bought...

will solve all his problems.

I think so too.

Hurry up.

Sure.

There there, Zuo You.

Stop crying.

Real men don't cry too much.

Isn't there a song that goes, "Men, cry your heart out. It's okay?"

Besides, I'm not a grown man yet.

Shi Yi,

how did you find out you were adopted?

One time, when I was little,

I was looking for my toys at home.

I accidentally found my adoption certificate.

You must have been very sad when you saw it.

Sad?

Of course I was sad.

Not only did I feel sad,

I even made...

an irreparable mistake.

Why am I telling you all this?

Zuo You,

you have to remember,

you must never hurt someone who loves you.

Because some mistakes...

can never be amended...

once you've made them.

Shi Yi,

I think I get what you mean.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have run away...

and made Mum worry.

Zuo You, you're clever and kind.

Why would anyone hate you?

Shi Yi,

I believe you love your family too.

If you've made any mistakes,

they'd definitely forgive you.

Really?

You should apologise to the person you love.

Perhaps...

Perhaps he's forgiven you.

Shi Yi,

do people know that you're adopted?

This is our little secret.

Come, adopted brother. Give me five.

It's a goose.

-Do you like it? -Yes.

-Thank you, Dad. -Thank you, Dad.

So,

is that why...

he abandoned me back then?

Come on in.

Sorry for not telling you all this while.

The last time I went to the orphanage with Shi Yi,

he told me his secret.

When he was ten,

he found out that he was adopted.

Shi Yi is leaving tomorrow.

The truth is,

at the end of the day,

a family's companionship...

is the most important.

You don't want Shi Yi to leave,

do you?

[These two brothers are really worrisome.]

[I have to figure something out.]

[I believe you love your family too.]

[If you've made any mistakes,]

[they'd definitely forgive you.]

[You should apologise to the person you love.]

[Perhaps he's forgiven you.]

Shi Yi.

Shi Yi.

Good morning.

Good morning.

You're...

I'm moving back.

But before I go,

there's something I need to tell you.

Actually,

I knew all along...

that the person who can cure you...

is Shi Meng.

I never had the guts to tell you...

because I like you.

I wanted to use it as an excuse...

to stay by your side.

Well, I...

-Actually I... -I know.

You only see me as a friend.

I also know...

that the guy you love has always been Shi Meng.

I was too selfish.

I caused so much trouble...

in your relationship.

I'm sorry.

It's alright.

Are you forgiving me?

Yes!

Look.

Don't you feel so much better after telling me?

Actually...

I think you and Shi Meng...

could...

Good morning!

What a coincidence.

Why don't we have breakfast together?

I'll do it.

No need.

I have a meeting. See you.

Surely, you have time for a cup of coffee?

I'll get the door.

Zuo You!

Why are you here? What?

You want to see Shi Yi and Shi Meng? Come on in.

I've come here...

because I need both your help...

with something important.

This is...

This is Fang Yan's birthday surprise.

So we mustn't let her know.

Listen up.

This is the child of my bird. It's called My Egg.

My bird got post-partum depression...

and refuses to brood.

And I won't be getting my new incubator for another three days.

But My Egg is due in a couple of days.

So...

I need a human's warmth to keep it alive.

After much thinking,

you two are the most reliable people I know.

Us?

Exactly.

You two must incubate it continuously, 24 hours a day.

My Egg cannot leave a human's warmth for more than an hour.

But two manly men brooding...

What? You can't even handle such a simple task?

You call yourselves men?
