Next time, together forever

Episode 26

Is it not too hard?

No.

It is not the first time I sleep like this.

You will get cold sleeping like this.

It’s all right. It is just for one night.

It is a small issue.

I will let my sister manage it tomorrow.

Then...

come and sleep on the bed.

Are you sure?

Put your clothes on.

I have not taken off my clothes.

Sleep on this side, I will sleep over there.

I think we should not sleep

like we would be standing up.

If you cannot sleep

then talk about something.

You will fall asleep while talking.

What should I say?

I have no idea.

My mind went blank.

Relax.

Why are you

mentioning the bed recently.

You are catching my tongue.

I just said it.

Moreover,

it is not like you did not sleep in my bed before.

I did not do it on purpose that day.

I did it on purpose.

I thought you were too tired

so I wanted you to sleep on the bed

but I did not expect

that you will still lay on the floor later.

I really did not want

to lay on the floor.

You are just this kind of person.

You never take responsibility for what you do.

What responsibility do you want me to take?

Are you nervous?

I am.

Don’t be.

No one

will knowck on the door now.

Sheng Xia...

is our play starting to turn real?

Pick it up.

Yes, sister?

Qiu Yang, can you give me a hand?

There is suddenly no electricity in the house.

What about brother-in-law?

All right, I will be right there.

All right.

There is a flashlight under the cabinet in the living room.

All right.

Qiu Yang...

Qiu Yang!

What are you doing? Why are you still up?

There is no electricity next door.

My sister just called me.

Dang.

I forgot to charge it.

Your sister can’t do it, let me do it.

Enough, enough. Don’t go there.

You will only mess it up again in the middle of the night.

I will go myself.

Listen to me,

you can go by yourself.

Go and find

the charging card in the iron box under the coffee table.

Call me if you cannot find it,

all right?

Fine, fine, I understand.

Also, go south

in the residential area.

There is a small ATM charging place.

ATM charging place.

All right.

Your electric card.

You made everything so swiftly.

I am living here, how can I not know what to do.

Sister,

have I not told you that before?

I think you cannot live without brother-in-law.

Brother-in-law left two days ago

and the house is in a mess.

You are bus at home and busy at work,

how can you manage all?

Maybe you could call brother-in-law to come back?

It is not like I have been alone for years.

Your situation differs from mine.

How is it different?

I just want to let you see

how great I can live without your brother-in-law.

Sister,

I think you shouldn’t be so ambitious.

How could my brother-in-law have an affair?

Don’t you understand him at all?

He was cooking for somebody else at most.

Why should he serve others when we have been

eating and drinking less for so many years

There are so many things to do at home,

why does he want to cook meals for others?

Is he not trying to find something for himself?

Something that will boost his confidence?

he is just wild at heart.

I cannot hold him at home.

Is it not because you are keeping him on a tight leash

that problems are doomed to appear?

Especially men

need to find an opportunity to prove themselves.

Let him prove himself.

Have I not given him the opportunity to prove himself?

The door locks are changed.

He can never come back.

Sister, I think you are not doing it right.

Really.

If he is to serve tea to other people,

it may happen

that someone else will

offer him a warm quilt,

right?

Since he did not come back till now,

maybe it has already happened.

This

will be a really bad outcome, I think.

He hasn’t warmed

my quilt for many years.

Sister. Sister. Sister.

I am teasing you.

Don’t cry.

Brother-in-law is at my place now.

He is with me now.

Where else could he go?

He is at your place?

Sister,

I think that deep in your heart

you still care for brother-in-law.

Shall I call him to come back?

Don’t. Don’t.

Don't call him back.

let him reflect on his behaviour first.

Wait for him to think clearly.

For his feelings to come back.

Then we’ll talk again.

All right.

I am going, sister.

You came back.

Why are you still not sleeping?

There was no electricity in there.

I charged it up. Don’t worry. Everything’s fine.

What are you writing?

I just thought about some home-made dishes.

I am writing down the recipe.

Help me check it up.

Brother-in-law,

before you partner with someone to open a restaurant,

you should talk to my sister

and explain everything to her.

Did your sister say anything?

Nothing much.

Even if you don’t say, I know it already.

He wants me to reflect on it,

and sever my relation with Ren Sisi’s,

is it not the case?

The misunderstanding between the two of you

is not something that is very essential.

You only need to communicate.

Everything will be fine if you talk to each other.

Wait, wait, wait, a minute, wait a minute.

Sit down.

Sit so we can talk some more.

Since you have sad this already,

I will also share some truths with you.

My conflict with your sister

is not a misunderstanding.

We are essentially not suitable for each other.

Yes.

You also know that.

It was always me who

apologized after each and every quarrel.

I got used to the fact

that whatever she did

was always justified.

I have been always compromising.

This time, however, I found it really difficult

to do it again.

What did I wrong?

Moreover,

I am very determined this time.

I cannot let it be like in the past

and have her have the final say in our family.

I also want to be free.

I want to feel as good as you do.

Am I doing good?

Yes.

How come it is good?

Your life is more complete.

You have been divorced twice

and you still found for a suitable partner.

Suitable?

Suitable.

Pretty.

What do you want to do then? Do you also want to divorce twice?

I...

I am resigning my life to fate.

Enough.

Brother-in-law,

to be honest,

you have been with my sister for so many years.

Your marriage

has always been my example.

I am really envious

that there were never any essential problems between you two.

The most problems were only connected to the division of work within the family

and a proper communication.

Let’s do the following.

Let’s set up a family meeting

today after work.

You, I, sister.

We will also call Sheng Xia and talk.

If we cannot find the consensus, we will vote,

all right?

Minority will obey the majority,

all right?

Let’s try it.

I am going to bed.

Sisi, are you not at home?

I am at your doorstep.

When are you coming back then?

Just tell me what it is on the phone.

It is about us opening the restaurant.

I thought about it.

I decided to work with you.

Let’s do what you said.

You’ll give the funds, I will provide the technology.

I have already started yesterday.

I sorted out few recipes

and got some new ideas.

I will tell you everything in detail

when we meet.

By the way, Sisi.

I think that

if we combine all the factors in a good way,

we likely become another legend in restaurant industry.

What are you doing?!

Are you sleepwalking? The light is red. Go back!

Hello? Sisi, where are you?

Say something!

You are not lying to me, right?

How could I lie to you?

I am telling the truth.

But I have to ask you for a favour.

It concerns my wife.

We have a family meeting tonight.

I want to ask you to come over there as my partner

to meet them

and let them be at ease.

You must remember what you said.

Of course.

I will send you the address the.

Don't be late.

Relax.

I will be hosting the meeting tonight.

I have asked Ren Sisi to come over.

Why did you call her over?

Well...

I was afraid I could not explain it by myself.

Is it not convenient to have her come over?

Today’s meeting is a next step for my sister.

Only that way you will be able to tell her all your wishes.

Will your invitation not confuse her more?

Qiu Yang, did you not want to meet?

Everyone is here.

Let’s start the meeting.

Sheng Xia,

come over. Let’s start the meeting.

Stop busying yourself.

I am going to preside

over the meeting today.

Qiu Yang,

one person has still not come.

Why else should be here but us?

I asked my partner to come over.

Did you not say it is a family meeting?

Did you invite outsiders to it?

Sister,

I think the main topic

of today’s meeting is to talk about

Brother-in-law’ s work

and his plans for the future.

Sister...

I thought we are meeting because someone wanted to apologize.

Some people are really funny

Old house servant wants to make a career

just because he worked somewhere else for a few days.

Qiu Yue, don’t insult people.

Am I insulting you?

I still have not insulted you enough.

Qiu Yang, do you see it now?

I told you this earlier.

I cannot communicate with her.

Zhang Chenglong

Do you think I am willing to see you, you freeloader?

Sister, sister, sister.

Calm down.

Can you not just calm down a little?

Look, give me some face today.

Listen to my brother-in-law’s thoughts.

We want to find the solution to the problem today

and not to quarrel.

Brother-in-law,

tell us about your thoughts,

your intentions.

My plan is to

open a restaurant in partnership with a friend.

We will mainly serve healthy dishes, with less salt and less oil.

Wait.

What friend?

What about money?

Where does the money come from?

Sister,

let brother-in-law do the talking.

Qiu Yang, it’s all right.

I have to tell her sooner or later.

The person that works with me is called Ren Sisi.

She brings the money in, I contribute with know-how.

Did you know about it, Qiu Yang?

Uhm… sister...

I think

I actually think that my brother-in-law’s

idea of wanting to work again

is really good.

As for what kind of work it could be,

we can discuss it together again.

Don’t join him in his wild fantasies.

Why are you trying to kid?

Do you call this a job?

Do you know what this is called?

This is called begging. (lit. kneeling for support)

You are old and grey,

It's not enough for you to eat soft food alone.

What kind of person

threw you into this bottomless pit.

Who do you think you are?

Rejuvenated king of the kitchen?

A wonderful chef?

Qiu Yue, you said I could do anything I wanted.

Stop harping on innocent girl,

all right?

Do you see, it is impossible to say anything.

Zhang Chenglong, I am telling you

that you have to make clear

to all of us gathered in front of you today

what is your relationship with

with that Ren Sisi.

Me and her are…!

Calm down.

Sister, calm down.

Hello.

Why are you looking for?

Sisi.

You came just in time.

Please explain to her what relationship are we in.

Uhm… you are miss Ren, right?

Hurry, hurry.

Uhm… you’re just in time.

We are discussing

my brother-in-law’s work idea as family members.

Please sit down. Sit down.

I am pregnant.

Child’s father is here as well.

Sisi...

are you crazy? Why are you looking at me?

This is nothing but a nonsense.

Yes, Miss Ren.

You have to explain it clearly, do you understand?

Qiu Yue...

don’t get excited about

what she said.

Zhang Chenglong,

you really have the skill.

Sister… I...

Sister…

How far along are you?

How far along is she?!

Three months.

She is three months along, sister.

Sister, the child is mine.

It was brother-in-law who was always blamed by my doings.

Qiu Yang...

is this child yours?

You should not talk nonsense right now.

That’s right.

This child is indeed mine.

Brother-in-law, don't worry.

Uhm...

Do not worry,

I will definitely not let you take blame for me anymore.

I will chase after her and bring her back.

Sheng Xia,

do not get excited.

It’s all right.

Sister,

I am really fine.

We will go first.

Zhang Chenglong,

come with me.

Qiu Yue

do not scare me?

How am I scaring you?

You are cutting the apples

with a kitchen knife.

There is a fruit knife in the kitchen.

I will bring it for you.

Zhang Chenglong,

I misunderstood you today.

I am sorry.

Eat a piece of apple.

Is it tasty?

It is.

Is it sweet?

It is.

It’s sweet.

Can you tell me the truth?

Did Qiu Yang not tell it already?

if it was really Qiu Yang’s child,

would he invite Ren Sisi to his home

and throw them into Sheng Xia’s face like this?

No. It was like this.

Qiu Yang invited Ren Sisi

to explain everything clearly.

He was afraid that you will misunderstand.

As for result,

on the way here

they probably quarreled about something.

You also know that pregnant women are emotionally unstable

Ren Sisi probably did not know how to vent it out

and so...

be careful...

and so she blurted it out.

She just said the truth.

I really do not care about her.

Eat another piece.

I am really saying the truth.

Ren Sisi is pregnant, right?

She has to be taken care of while being pregnant.

Qiu Yang has no experience so he asked me for help.

so you do not...

discover it in the end.

There is really nothing fake about it.

We only brought the opening of the restaurant as a pretext.

I am Qiu Yang’s sister.

Why didn’t he tell me?

because of your character.

If you knew, would you

be able to hold it in?

Besides,

you told me you would kill me

for having an affair.

I wouldn’t dare to have one.

Really.

I misunderstood you.

Eat one more.

Zhang Chenglong,

if you are lying to me.

I wouldn’t dare.

I wouldn’t dare.

Yes, brother-in-law?

Did you find Sisi?

I did not.

She disappeared when I was chasing her.

She was nowhere to find.

It is in the middle of the night,

she wouldn’t be in any accident...

I know this is my fault.

It was me who called her over.

I did not expect such outcome.

Thank you, Qiu Yang,

for helping me to block it

otherwise, I would be in big trouble.

Have I not said it already?

The child is mine.

I know it is not your child.

It is also not mine.

It is all right. I have already admitted it.

The child is mone.

Do not get anxious.

Explain everything to my sister.

All right, I know.

How will you act with Sheng Xia?

Sheng Xia?

Sheng Xia needs no explanation. It’s all right.

All right, do not worry.

I am sleeping!

You are frying eggs?

yes.

You have burned this one.

All right, i will eat this one.

I will make you another one.

Enter.

President Qiu, you were looking for me.

Do you know that our company is replacing whole fresh air system

at Jiayuan Hospital?

I know.

We are starting tomorrow.

You will do the site supervision of this project.

Why me?

You are very familiar with Pang Da Hai.

You are also Sheng Xia’s best friend at the same time.

I think if you go there,

communication may be smoother.

Of course, if you do not want to go there,

I will choose another person.

No.

It is my job.

One should do whatever the boss orders.

This was sent by President Yu.

It will help you to understand the specific information about this project.

How are you and President Qiu faring?

What do you mean?

Is everything alright between you?

We...

Were we ever all right?

Did you reject Meng Zheng because of him?

Because of him?

Are you kidding?

Do not lie to me.

I have already seen it.

In fact, the two of you are very concerned about each other.

You are just too stubborn to admit it.

I am not.

Actually, I want to understand.

Feelings are managed with a lot of effort.

I already tried my best

towards president Qiu,

so now I have no regrets.

Are you giving up?

There are still a few years of my youth left.

I have to get over it quick.

What do you want to say?

Should I pray for you?

I pray that you find your true love as soon as possible.

Thank you. I will.

There will be no more obstacles

between you and president Qiu now.

There are no obstacles even now.

You are not giving up on him because of me?

Are you not thinking too highly about yourself?

Am I someone who would suffer

just to please others?

But I said the truth.

It would be great if you

stay with him.

After all, one should not let one's own fertile water flow into

others' field. (one should keep good things within the family).

We are two completely different people

Even now, an act on impulse

is doomed to end in tragedy.

We will definitely separate in the future.

Why are you so pessimistic?

Are you perhaps quarreling?

Recently, something happened to their family.

His sister and brother-in-law are on the verge of divorce.

I suddenly feel

that marriage is a thing that makes people feel powerless.

No matter how good your feelings are,

they will still disappear in the course of years.

Why are you thinking about it so much?

It’s not appropriate to leave now.

It is better not to start

if one is to separate

and go back to being alone again.

if this is what you think,

you should have not started it all.

Qiu Yue!

Qiu Yue!

Sisi...Sisi?

Is that you, Sisi?

Say something.

Sisi

Are you having some kind of troubles?

it is all right, everything can be solved.

Have you eaten?

Where are you?

Should I come and find you?

Xinya Cafe.

Sisi...

what’s wrong with you?

Such words cannot be said casually.

I almost got divorced by my wife you know?

If you want to leave, then leave.

You will be more free then.

Sisi, you misunderstood what I meant.

My wife and I had this misunderstanding for a while

but I never thought about divorce.

We have a child together.

Yes.

Men are all the same.

They never divorce.

Sisi,

what’s wrong with you?

Why do I feel that you are weird these two days?

I am pregnant.

I know that you are pregnant.

if you are pregnant than just get married.

With whom?

With you?

With child’s father.

Is he not aware of it?

You did not tell him.

He said I should get rid of it.

Doctor said my uterus’ walls are too thin.

If I go through abortion this time,

I may never have a child in future.

Then you should not do it.

He won't marry me.

Not that he does not want to.

He can’t.

Why?

Because of the same reason you mentioned.

What do you mean is

he

has a family?

Sisi, you really are...

Brother Long, do you think

that I am completely different from what you imagined?

No, no, no.

I did not mean that.

I think

You are very stupid.

I also feel that I am particularly stupid.

I thought after breaking up with him

I can start living my life again.

I did not expect that I will get pregnant.

It may be

God’s punishment for me.

But when I got a call from you back then

I suddenly felt that my life was not that bad.

And so I went to your house to look for you.

But

I heard your conversation with your wife.

I felt at that time

that your life is not very happy.

Your wife is always accusing you,

following you.

I thought that you only needed a trigger point,

so you can get away from her.

Sisi...

I don't care what you think about me.

I still want to thank you.

Thank you for thinking so much about me.

At least

we are still friends, right?

Who wants to be your friend?

Are you stupid or something?

Can't you see what I'm trying to do with you?

I have nothing.

What do you plan?

I just want this child.

Divorce.

Marry me.

Do you not want to start your own business?

I will invest in it.

Everything will be yours.

What do you think? Agree, Brother Long.

Sisi, release your grip.

This is not suitable.

Qiu Yue...

Qiu Yue!

Brother-in-law...

Why are you standing here?

Tell me what should I do?

What happened, brother-in-law?

My sister made such a ruckus on the phone.

My company is in the meeting.

I went to see Ren Sisi.

Your sister saw it.

Brother-in-law, have I not told you

not to see Ren Sisi?

I will handle everything.

I thought something happened to her.

No wonder she is mad

after seeing you two.

Ren Sisi is emotionally instabile.

She grabbed my hands

and your sister saw it.

My sister saw the picture of you

holding… holding hands?

I think Ren Sisi is really pitiful.

She was dumped by a married man.

later she discovered she is pregnant.

She went to a hospital for a check-up.

Doctor said that if she goes through abortion,

she may not have any children in the future.

And what do you want to do?

I have not thought about it.

My sister said on the phone that she will divorce you.

I will not divorce.

You must be more firm about it.

Qiu Yang,

you have to help me with this.

How can I help you?

Brother-in-law,

I think you should

face it yourself this time.

How can I face it?

Go in. Go in and bravely

face my sister

and tell her whatever you need to say.

I really want to go in...

but the locked me out, I cannot come in.

I will help you.

Come. Come over.

Come.

Sister!

it’s me, Qiu Yang!

Open the door.

All right.

Qiu Yang!

Get out.

Listen to my explanation, Qiu Yue.

Your reaction was too big.

No! it is unacceptable!

get out!

How can I leave when I just got in?!

I am not leaving! I just!

No!

No matter what, I am not going.

Who will cook for you when I am gone.

Go out.

I won’t.

Go out!

I won’t.

I am not going to leave.

I explained it all so many times, you don’t listen.

I am telling you, I am annoyed even with the sight of you.

I am disgusted.

Just be disgusted then.

Even if you kill me, I won’t leave.

Yes, Guo Guo?

Is dad in?

He left.

I will call back later then.

Wait.

Do not talk to your dad only.

You can also talk to me.

Are you alright?

I am not.

I have no living expenses.

How can that be?

Did your dad just send you money two weeks ago?

It is not enough.

The exchange rate has risen now.

You're talking nonsense again.

I read the news.

Was the rate not falling?

I am not going to explain it to you.

When will my dad come back?

I am not sure.

Then I will call him directly.

You!

You spend the money like your dad.

A true thankless wretch.

Zhang Chenglong,

I am telling you.

Hand me your bank card.

Starting from now on

your financial power is being confiscated.

Are you watching TV?

Why do you watch this?

Tt is better to watch a sports channel.

It is really

to fake.

Article 29 of the Agreement states

that the TV remote control in the hands of the woman.

Besides,

did you not say you never watch TV?

Just watch you want to watch.

Sheng Xia...

Sit down.

I want to ask you for a favour.

My sister is mad at my brother-in-law now.

She called me today saying that she is going to divorce him.

I think you could advise my sister otherwise

when you have some time.

You could help my brother-in-law explain everything.

Why don’t you do it by yourself?

My sister thinks I collaborated with

my brother-in-law in this,

so I think it would be better if it comes from you.

Tell me then.

Ren Sisi

Does she have any relationship with your brother-in-law?

She does.

Is brother-in-law her child’s father then?

If this is the case,

you won’t be willing to talk on brother-in-law’s behalf, right?

Of course!

It is not.

Whose child is it then?

Didn't I say that that day?

Qiu Yang, you are too much.

Even if we are pretending to be a couple

are you not too unscrupulous?

No wonder you don't want to get married.

Is this the freedom you really want?

Why do you not cherish yourself at all?

Sit down.

Do not get so anxious.

Listen to me.

What if I tell you

that this child is in no way related to me or brother in law?

That it is an outcome of Ren Sisi’s romance,

an unethical romance

that she originally wanted to end

but found out that she got pregnant

and did not know what to do

so she said what she said that day,

would you believe it?

I'm too lazy to believe it or not.

It has nothing to do with me.

I don't think you are so brainless.

And therefore I want you

to reason it out with my sister when you have the time.

I do not want them to divorce.

It depends on my mood.

When you just yelled at me

I just had this strange feeling.

What a strange feeling?

I do not know either.

Anyway, it's quite different.

What are you doing?

Can I not do it?

Let go of me.

I don't like being touched.

You are telling lies.

You are a very dangerous person.

I want to stay away from you.
