The Starry Night, The Starry Sea

- Episode 23 -

I knew you'd come.

What did you need me for?

I understand something now.

I cannot lose you.

Unfortunately, your wish cannot come true.

While we were apart, I tried many ways.

I drank until I was heavily drunk, and I went to see a psychologist, too.

I even forced myself to date a girl I didn't like.

But I couldn't forget you.

I'm not like you. I never hide my own emotions.

I know that for these years, you've suffered more than me.

So what? You have your goals.

I have my responsibility.

What if... I'm willing to give up on my goal?

♫ Don't say you also were once cowardly ♫

♫ Don't say that the answer is predestined ♫

♫ Even if the fireworks don't last forever, ♫

♫ you won’t regret its beauty ♫

I've made up my mind.

I will bury my father.

Tomorrow morning at St. Barbara church, I'll hold a funeral rite for him.

I hope you and your grandma can participate in this funeral together with me.

You want to give up on the spiritual pearl?

♫ Don't say you also were once cowardly ♫

♫ Don't say that the answer is predestined ♫

♫ Even if the fireworks don't last forever, ♫

♫ you won’t regret its beauty ♫

♫ Don’t say that you are also burdened ♫

♫ Don't say that the future is hard to predict ♫

♫ Even if our meeting will eventually become departure, ♫

♫ these memories won't fade away ♫

Sir, do you have a reservation?

This one.

Please come with me.

Who told you to dress like that?

Does it look good?

Go change.

When you saw Shen Luo dress like this yesterday,

- didn't you say it was very pretty--?- It wasn't the dress!

Do you think that I wasn't embarrassed enough yet last night?

- I-- I'm not...- Then go change!

What irritates you isn't this dress,

but the person wearing the dress!

Liangliang went to check the gun that hurt you. The results show that

the people beside you cannot possibly be the culprit.

I was concerned and so I asked my friends at the identification center

to check the electronic records, and discovered they were all gone!

If you say that, the reports from before should be false.

The real reports

indicated the possibility of the target being either Shen Luo, Jiang Yisheng, or any other person among them.

It definitely wouldn't be Shen Luo. It couldn't be Jiang Yisheng either.

Zhou Buyan and Zhu Yiyang aren't that daring.

They probably don't know that much.

The only possibility is Zhou Buwen.

Liangliang!

You've finally come! But it's late, the library is going to close soon!

How about we go eat? We'll go to the library another day!

You said so last time!

You are going to take me to your favorite western restaurant!

Let's go!

What is it?

Jiang Yisheng, let's break up.

You-- You're so mischievous, playing this sort of joke on me. You're not allowed to do that again!

I'm not joking. I'm being serious.

You... You really want to break up with me?

No-- How is that possible?

Didn't you say this morning that you chose to date me because I'm good to you?

It's precisely because you're good to me!

I used you! The one I love has always been someone else!

I just treated you as a tool to forget him.

Impossible!

I don't believe it! You're lying, right, Liangliang?

Jiang Yisheng, I've never loved you.

I cannot continue lying to you and myself any more.

I'm sorry.

Liangliang!

Liangliang!!

Isn't it just a broken heart?

Yisheng, don't scare me.

There's plenty of women out there.

If one won't do, I'll find you another one on the island!

I'm talking to you!

Look at how useless you are.

Jiang Yisheng, what's wrong?

He has a broken heart.

You should have given up long ago!

Let's go back and wait to drink Liangliang's marriage wine.

Let's congratulate her on finding a good husband to be happy with for life!

No!

I can't do it!

That's more like it! I grew up with you.

I've never seen you so serious towards a woman before.

Since you're really in love this time, you should fight to the end!

Besides, Wu Liangliang isn't married yet! You still have a chance.

That's right! As long as Liangliang isn't married, I have a chance!

I've decided! I won't give up Liangliang!

I'm going to clean up.

Xiao Luo, um... are you free tomorrow night?

I want to treat you to dinner.

Xiao Luo isn't free.

I was talking to Xiao Luo.

Xiao Luo.

Xiao Luo is my girlfriend.

I've already made plans with her for tomorrow night. Also, this is my home. You're not welcome here.

Okay. Then call me when you're free.

Xiao Luo and I grew up together.

It wouldn't make sense for me to have to ask you for permission just to eat dinner with her.

Wu Julan, don't you think that you treating Zhou Buwen like this today,

is going a bit overboard?

No.

He's your love rival, but he's my childhood friend, too.

Don't complicate our relationships.

You don't understand human relationships.

You're the one who doesn't understand.

I have a feeling that there's a problem with Zhou Buwen.

I met with danger many times on the island.

You suspect him?

No way!

Da Tou seems like a sweet talker,

but he's a pretty good person. Don't be too sensitive.

Wu Julan, my dear prince!

Don't overthink it!

But... I like the way you look when you're jealous!

Granny, I have something to say to you.

Go ahead.

An Zuo... has decided to give up on the spiritual pearl.

You don't have to believe him right now.

He will bury his adoptive father at church tomorrow.

He wants to invite us to participate.

I don't think we need to participate.

Granny! Please give him a chance!

Because... Because I love him.

It's been so long already.

You shouldn't still love him.

I really can't forget him.

In these years, I've worked hard to control my feelings to fulfill the family's mission.

It felt awful.

But now, An Zuo is willing to change for the better.

Why can't we give him a chance?

Granny, if you also once loved another person deeply,

you would be able to understand my feelings.

I'm begging you.

Liangliang, thank you.

See you tomorrow afternoon. Good night.

Father, if it all goes smoothly,

tomorrow night, we can meet again.

Here. Hey! It's time to eat!

Wu Julan! How did you manage to get Xiao Luo?

You could succeed with Xiao Luo who doesn't even believe in love!

Teach me! Teach me!

You were the one who taught me how to pursue Xiao Luo.

Am I not shamelessly asking you now?

Oh dear! This is a case of going to any doctor when one is critically ill (try or do anything in a crisis).

Wu Julan! If you see Wu Liangliang, you must ask her for me.

Just why? I'm so good to her!

Why doesn't she like me?

In these years, you've worked hard to resurrect your father.

Why are you suddenly giving up?

Everyone will live and die.

No matter if it's sooner or later,

no matter if he or I die first,

everyone must face the day of separation.

Instead of working hard to get back what has already been lost,

why not properly grasp what is by my side?

I originally didn't want to come today.

You've done too much to harm Regulus.

You have no right to have my forgiveness.

But Liangliang begged me all night.

I'm not very willing, but I can't bear to see her so sad.

Thank you, Violet.

I invited you to take part in this burial

in the hopes of dissipating your worries.

I hope you are sincere towards Liangliang.

Don't disappoint this trust that's not easily attained.

Mr. Evans and I do have a friendly relationship.

I want to pay my respect to his deceased body.

An Zuo, you--!

Granny!

Why?

Liangliang, I love you.

But I love my father even more.

No matter what the price, I wanted to make us work.

But what I got in return was lies and betrayal.

I will never forgive you!

I've never imagined that you'd forgive me. You've just been hit with anesthesia.

After today, after I get the mermaid's spiritual pearl, I'll definitely let you go.

Didn't Violet say she'd come at 3 p.m. today?

It's 4 p.m. now, why isn't she here yet?

I have a... bad feeling.

Do you think you're half celestial? Don't scare yourself.

Granny. Granny!

Zhou Buwen, it really was you!

You found out too late.

We can't wait for Violet. I'll take you to the ocean with Jiang Yisheng right now.

W-What? Take him to the ocean?

It'll be nighttime by the time you arrive at the ocean.

Besides, he's feeling sick and you still want him to swim?

Stop nagging, hurry and go!

- Hurry up, help me!- You're really going?

What are you doing?

Don't be afraid.

Wu Julan! Wu Julan!

Wu Julan!

Don't!

Let go of me!

Wu Julan! Wu Julan!

Let go of me!

Wu Julan!

Wu Julan!

Don't!

Wu Julan!

Wu Julan!

Don't! Don't!

Get in the car!

Granny! I've caused harm to you.

I caused harm to Regulus. I caused harm to the entire family.

I fell in love with the wrong person. I trusted the wrong person, too.

Granny, I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

The cellphone tracker shows that he should be nearby!

Hurry and look!

Wu Julan!

- Wu Julan!- Wu Julan!

Da Tou? Why is it you?

It really was you who abducted Wu Julan!

Wu Julan's feeling was right! Why are you hurting him?

Hurting him?

Look carefully! Look carefully!

He's a monster! I'm just getting rid of a monster!

Xiao Luo! What's going on with that?

Da Tou, hurry and let Wu Julan go!

Xiao Luo.

I truly love you. Can't you tell?

That you fell in love with a monster?

Wu Julan isn't a monster! He's the man I love!

Okay. Okay.

Then I'll kill him today. I'll kill this man you love!

Zhou Buwen, have you gone crazy?

I'm not crazy. The crazy one is you!

Let go of me! Let go of me!

Wu Julan! Jiang Yisheng, wake up! Save Wu Julan!

- Boss An!- Jiang Yisheng!

It's about time.

It's been a hundred and fifty years. The spiritual pearl is finally going to return to us Black Wizards.

Let go of me!

No! Let go of me!

Don't! Let go!

No!

Don't!

Don't!

You can't!

Don't!

No!

Liangliang!

You never imagined it, right?

Zoe! Why have you come?

I never trusted An Zuo.

So, I was prepared long ago.

I told Zoe that if we hadn't returned by 12 p.m.

that she was to follow the cellphone tracker to come find us.

Zhou Buwen, you lunatic!

Do you think you can win if you kill Wu Julan?

In your dreams! I want to kill you!

I won't love you even in my next lifetime!

Let go of me!

Take her away.

Let go!

Da Tou, you've gotten tired of playing business,

and now you're tired of playing with us childhood friends, too?

Do you want to kill someone now, too?

Have you gone crazy? Have you gone crazy?!

You hit me for a monster?!

Do you think we're stupid? Look at what you've done!

Even if Wu Julan isn't human, you can't use such despicable tactics!

Jiang Yisheng, you bastard!

Liangliang, can you really bear to do it?

I said I'd never believe in you again.

Let go of me! Let go of me!

Wu Julan!

Shen Luo! Hurry and take him to the ocean!

Just what is Wu Julan?

An alien, or a water monster?

Drive the car, there's no time! Hurry up!

What is it?

There's no gas left.

Jiang Yisheng, what time is it now?

Almost twelve.

Every fifeenth of the month, Regulus must go into the ocean.

If he doesn't, then he's in danger of dying.

Wu Julan, you must hang in there! You're not allowed to die!

Wu Julan! Wu Julan!

Wu Julan, hang in there! I don't want you to die!

Wu Julan! Wu Julan! Wu Julan!

Wu Julan! You can't die!

I haven't even kissed you yet! You must live on!

Daddy, I'm sorry.

I wasn't able to save you.

But don't worry.

One day, I will definitely resurrect you!

What is going on? Isn't Wu Julan's self recovery ability very strong?

The last time he was injured, he was up and running in two days!

Why is it so serious this time?

You must know the reason why, right?

I am Wu Julan's girlfriend. There are no secrets between us.

Can you tell me honestly?

Come with me. I'll tell you outside.

Regulus is becoming weaker and weaker,

because he lost

his most important thing, the spiritual pearl.

Spiritual pearl?

Spiritual pearl. Spiritual pearl.

Mermaids have a limit to their lifespans, too.

It's just, Wu Julan is the prince of the merpeople.

He possesses a most valuable treasure, the spiritual pearl.

That's why he can have eternal life.

But a hundred and fifty years ago, he lost the spiritual pearl.

His body has become weaker by the day.

Liangliang said that Wu Julan has a serious illness.

Is that what she was talking about?

Yes. If he doesn't get the spiritual pearl back,

- he only has one month--!- Violet!

You're not needed here. Please leave.

What does she mean, there's only one month?

She said, I only have a month before I have to return to the ocean.

I will never return again.

Zhou Buwen!

Yisheng, how is Xiao Luo doing now? Is she hurt?

Zhou Buwen, you're despicable! Don't think of Shen Luo any more!

I'm despicable? I'm despicable?!

Jiang Yisheng, you know best what Xiao Luo is to me!

How could I let her be with a monster?

But Xiao Luo doesn't like you! The one she likes is Wu Julan!

I don't care what Wu Julan is. At the very least, he's never harmed you.

And you? You've done every bad thing possible!

Jiang Yisheng, get things straight.

We are brothers that grew up together.

-We're brothers!-That's right!

Before yesterday, I treated you as my best brother.

We grew up together.

The first time I drank alcohol, you were the one that taught me.

The first time I had a fight, we fought together.

The first time I asked a girl out, it was you who helped me make the call.

But now?

Where has the Da Tou in my heart gone?

Time has changed us.

The Da Tou in my heart died long ago.

The Zhou Buwen standing in front of me,

has completely changed. He frightens me!

From now on, you're not my brother any more.
