Original subtitles

You didn't have any identification on you when you were admitted.

Your mobile phone was dead.

We couldn't contact anyone.

This is strong medication.

You should take care of yourself.

Control your emotions, okay?

When this medication fails to control your symptoms,

your condition can become fatal.

Leo also said you were in and out of hospitals.

You aren't seriously ill, are you?

If Leo were to spend so much time on someone,

that would kill him, wouldn't it?

Qingchuan, perhaps Maggie is right.

I can't let you be lonely in the end.

And I can't let you bear the pain of being alone.

My bicycle is speedy like the wind.

You're fibbing.

I'll show you.

I couldn't run because I was weak.

He brought me here on a bike

It went so fast.

I felt as if I was running with him.

That's right.

Yixun, must it end like this?

Can't there be a miracle for us?

What are you looking for?

-A miracle. -A miracle?

Finding lavender here would indeed be a miracle.

Wait for me.

Please wait for me at the place of miracle.

Why is it you?

Why is it you and not him?

Why whenever I'm sad,

it's you by my side?

Though you know I like him,

you'll still care for me?

Because I really like you.

Because I like you so much I can't even deceive myself.

I wanted to wish you...

both the best.

But I can't hide it any more.

My love for you is full to the brim.

So full I can't handle it.

But my heart...

is dead.

I thought I could be with him forever.

That I wouldn't be like Sis.

But you know what?

People like us have no right to love.

We'll only cause hurt.

Qingchuan...

probably shouldn't be with me,

despite putting in so much effort

and assuming we can go on.

Why are there so many misunderstandings?

He always so readily pushes me away, hurting me so deeply.

I'm tired.

So tired.

Tong...

should I give up?

Yixun.

Why are you still here?

Don't you understand that your appearance can only harm Yixun?

I'm sorry.

I apologize for this morning.

But I won't give Yixun up.

This is our destiny.

Please let her choose, all right?

Yixun, please give me one last chance.

We can't give up like that so soon, okay?

Please give me another chance.

I believe we can make it through.

Yixun...

Xun.

He won't give you happiness.

He'll only cause sadness and tears.

Give me your hand.

I won't make you cry again. I'll give you happiness.

No matter how much we love each other,

fate will take me away from Qingchuan.

His heart has been hurt so much.

I can't hurt him anymore.

Your heart...

is scarred enough.

I don't want to hurt you more.

Xun.

Aren't you bringing the demo over?

What?

Are you asking me what demo?

Hey, we talked about this earlier.

The demo for the pop songs which have yet to be sung as covers.

I don't care if they're English, Japanese or Korean. I want them now.

Are you trying to kill me?

Okay, hurry up.

Leo. What's with you these days?

You didn't contact us and didn't appear on the program.

Do you know I've been everywhere apologizing on your behalf

while you were home staring at this chain?

I know. It's Liang Yixun again, isn't it?

Stop bringing her into everything.

You can hear me? You're not deaf?

You don't listen to me.

You only look at me if I mention her name. Let's get this clear.

I didn't make commitments for you to stay for you to be love-sick. You have to work.

You need to earn money, then you can live the life you want.

Understand?

Showbiz is a practical world that favors new people.

One wrong step and your time is up.

Isn't it enough for you?

Can't I be left alone to lead my life?

I'm telling you. Someone's investing tons in my entertainment agency.

I have to spruce up the company image.

If they see your attitude,

who will invest in my company?

What? You-- Who's that?

Sorry, the door was unlocked, so I came in.

I'm from the courier. Here's the demo.

So, it's you? Give it to me now.

What? Wait.

Leo. With your capabilities,

you can learn these songs quickly.

These are the most popular bubblegum pop songs right now.

-Audiences like them. Try them. -Excuse me, sir...

Hey, just wait there. Are you blind?

Just try singing them and the industry may like them, okay?

Perhaps after you...

Sorry. I don't sing pop songs.

-Sir... -What's your hurry?

Hey, you just...

It's just a chain.

You can get one everywhere. Why do you love it so much?

I know.

It looked nice on Maggie,

so you thought it would also be nice for Liang Yixun.

You bought this for Liang Yixun hoping for a reconciliation.

How could you?

It's unfair to Maggie.

-Do you know Maggie is holding your-- -Maggie wore this?

Maggie had this chain?

Maggie never wears anything below one carat.

That's true.

I remember she wore this during the recording.

Yes. You're right about that.

Ask her.

She knows best.

Come back. Where are you going?

What are you up to?

Stop!

What kind of attitude is that?

I'm speaking to you. Show me respect.

You have to know, if it wasn't for me you wouldn't be here today.

If I didn't propel you to stardom, you'd still be some street punk.

There are hundreds of punks out there.

Sir, your demo.

You would be nothing if it wasn't for me.

If you want me to sing these songs,

I'm sorry, I can't do it.

What's this? You think you're great?

You fear nothing?

I'll tell you, if I can make you, I can break you too.

I can even make him better than you.

What if... I don't care?

You...

Dennis, right?

-My turn now? -Yes, it is.

I'll show everyone. I'll make you very popular.

You just love to control other people's lives, don't you?

He's just another toy.

Yes. Toy.

I'll show everyone that being my toy...

is better than being some composer.

Well? You doubt me?

I'll show you.

Hold this.

Open it.

Open it.

Take out the envelope.

This is what you wrote for others. Keep it for yourself.

THE MOMENT OF HAPPINESS

Why do you have this?

If it weren't for Maggie,

I wouldn't be bothered to promote it.

No one wants you at all.

Let's go.

Leo. Why are you here?

This chain.

Peter says you have one too.

I did.

But I lost it.

Lost it?

Where did you lose it?

When I asked Tong about this, why did he say to ask you?

I don't know. The chain is yours.

You lost it, then found it. That's not my business.

Did you take the chain?

No.

And this?

Shouldn't you explain yourself?

I don't know what you mean.

Don't know what I mean?

Peter told me you begged him to promote this song.

And you still don't know?

If you're here to ask me about this, I'll admit to everything, okay?

You're not the Maggie I know.

Yes. I stole the song and the chain, and wore it

when I went to see Liang Yixun. I told her it was from you.

I wanted her to doubt you. I don't want you two together.

You said

this song was for someone important and forbade me from touching it.

I knew it was for Liang Yixun.

Why should I give you up to Liang Yixun? I'm not willing to do that.

I was adamant.

Why wasn't the song for me?

I took it because I wanted it to be my song.

But I didn't do it.

Why not?

Liang Yixun has made you so depressed.

It's not important whether the song becomes popular. What matters is you.

So, I asked Peter to promote this song.

What's wrong with that?

You shouldn't have done that.

There's no advantage for you.

I love you.

Love is illogical, right?

Because I love you. I don't want to lose you.

Even if your heart is gone,

I'll do whatever it takes to keep you.

I'll do anything for love.

I love you as much as Liang Yixun does.

My heart can only reciprocate feelings for the one I love.

In this world, besides Yixun,

there's no one else I treasure.

Don't do anything silly for me.

Why did I come here?

Traveling half the globe for him.

We have only...

grown apart.

What exactly am I here for?

Yixun, you gave me a shock when you fainted.

Tong, sorry to worry you again. Sorry.

Don't apologize. Getting well soon will be a good way...

to repay me.

I brought you here to cheer you up.

Want to try something?

What?

Shout out your innermost feelings. You'll feel great.

Really?

What do I say?

Tong is the best,

or Leo is scum of the universe.

Try it.

Liang Yixun, I love you.

Every cell in me loves Liang Yixun.

Very, very much.

I love you.

Listening to the echo

makes me imagine that's the answer I'll get back.

Xun.

There's a special day next week. Can we spend it together?

Special day?

February 14th.

Everyone is thinking of romantic ways to spend the day.

No one has asked you?

Don't you dare spend it alone.

I won't let you be lonely.

No one has asked me.

Can I make a reservation then?

Liang Yixun has agreed!

Liang Yixun has agreed!

What now?

What about now?

Xun, I'm so excited about Valentine's Day.

Yixun.

Xun has broken up with you.

Why are you here?

Maggie has told me the truth.

The chain was lost...

only because she stole it.

She wanted to cause a misunderstanding between us.

I'm sorry.

Yixun, it's my fault.

I'm to blame.

If I weren't jealous...

and twisted everything you said,

things wouldn't have turned out this way.

Yixun, can you forgive me

and come back to me?

I thought I explained it to you.

The problem is not with Maggie.

It lies with the trust between us.

I'm tired of you.

And I've discovered...

Tong suits me better.

Please leave.

Have you forgotten?

You told me...

that I must have someone I treasure most in this world.

I've finally found that person.

And that's you.

Can you bear to watch me lose someone I treasure again?

The misunderstanding's cleared up now.

Why can't we start fresh?

Yixun.

Yixun.

Yixun.

Brace yourself. It'll be over soon.

Yixun.

DELETE

LEO DELETED CONTACT?

The number you dialed is not on, please dial it later.

Leo.

You're really Leo.

I'm Yu.

Yixun took you to see me months ago.

You're that Yu?

You look healthy and pretty.

I couldn't recognize you.

I'm glad to hear that.

Thanks to your visit I had a chance for a new heart.

Now I can be like every other girl.

Thank you.

I didn't help much.

It's your own determination

that gave you the chance,

not me.

Where's Yixun?

We...

We've broken up.

Why?

You look so good together.

Yixun loves you so much.

Leo, you can't give Yixun up.

You won't give up so easily something you treasure so much.

You treasure Yixun, don't you?

Yes. If I could give up so easily

then she wouldn't be so treasured.

Then go tell her you love her and can't live without her.

Yu, I'll tell Yixun all over again...

how important she is to me.

-Will you help? -Yes.

I wonder whose birthday it is.

So mysterious.

Hey, they're here.

-It's beautiful. -Great.

-Wow, so wonderful. -Wow, great.

Yu?

Yixun.

Yixun.

It's you?

You wouldn't have guessed, right?

Someone special booked this place for me.

-Who? -It's a secret.

Come, kids. Don't start eating first. Look here.

Over here.

-Hello, everybody. -Hello.

-Is this your first time here? -Yes.

Do you know what we're called?

-Fairytale Nursery. -Yixun.

Let me introduce two sisters to you.

Why did you break up with Leo?

You two are just like Cinderella and her prince.

Why are you apart?

Every fairy tale has to end.

No, the prince found Cinderella

with the help of the glass slipper,

and they lived happily ever after.

Fairy tales aren't practical.

They end. Believing in fairy tales...

will only cause hurt.

Cinderella's dream will vanish at midnight.

As if it never happened.

Leo...

I like you very much, Leo.

Please give me your autograph.

Leo. Leo...

Please give me your autograph. okay?

Leo...

Leo...

Leo.

Happy Birthday, Yu.

Happy Birthday, Yu.

Thank you.

Leo promised to sing me a song on my birthday.

Great.

I promised you

that when I completed the song,

I would tell you who it's for.

I'll tell you now.

This song is written for the one I treasure most.

I've known her since I was a kid.

She smiles a million different ways.

I'll never get tired of looking at her.

It is her smile that moved me...

and made me realize how warm it feels to love someone.

May she change her mind...

after hearing this song.

Don't make me lose you again.

When Autumn comes again

You want me to smile and fall in love

Even a brief affection

It's enough to be able to meet again

Certain people and certain things

Remained on the day it happened

Looking at how cruel the time is

Don't want to be forgotten

I'm happy with this fate of mine

The happiness of being with you

Unlocking time to set love free Free love from the lock of time

The tears, the struggles And the pain in the heart

One day, when leaves fall silently

I am no longer sad

Eternity finally believes In the moment of happiness

Unlocking time to set love free Free love from the lock of time

Not a second of regret I share every moment with you

The past and future repeated over

Forgive the sweet tears

Thanks for in the moment of happiness

Being with you

Liang Yixun... I have something to tell you.

Sorry, sir.

I'm working.

I don't have to listen to you.

I booked the nursery today.

I want you to listen to me.

Fine. You're the boss today.

Speak.

Please forget I'm the guest...

and you're the attendant.

It's just Ji Qingchuan speaking to Liang Yixun.

Why are you still oblivious to my love for you?

I don't understand.

I ignored everything,

including Peter and Maggie, to come back to you.

But you turn and leave.

What must I do for you to come back?

You have a place in my heart now.

Yet you want to leave.

What should I do now?

If you can come back to me,

I'm willing to give up my life.

Did you think I'd be touched?

Why should you do that for me?

I loathe those actions.

Because I only have you left in my life.

You're my only support.

However detestable I become, I don't want to lose you.

At least tell me why we have to part?

I can't give up my only happiness.

I'm not your only happiness.

I'm very sick.

It's serious heart condition.

I'll die, just like my sister.

I'll be a heavy burden.

Do you understand?

Can you accept someone like me?

Why did we reunite?

Why did we promise to meet at 20?

Let me die quietly. It'll be better.

If I had known this would happen,

I'd rather we never met.

So that's why you're avoiding me.

So, what if you're ill?

So, what if you die tomorrow?

To me,

you are still you.

You still can't run well.

You still cry at every little thing.

You're still the fragile, yet strong-willed Liang Yixun.

She's still the one that I love.

Xun.

Excuse me, it's working hours. Stop harassing my employee.

Yixun. I've made my heart clear to you.

The problem lies with you, not me.

You have to overcome the hurdle

and speak from your heart.

On Valentine's Day

I'll be waiting by the river.

This is my last chance.

She won't go. We already have a date.

Xun, let's go.

I'll be waiting for you.

Xun, let's go.

Xun, what are you looking for?

My lavender bottle is missing.

What? Missing?

Let's help look.

Look over there, quick.

Stop looking.

It's fate.

It's fate that you leave Leo,

fate that you lose the bottle,

fate that your paths end here.

It's all over now.

Treasure the people around you.

Look at me and what's before you.

I'm the one who can give you happiness.

Yes, even the bottle is missing.

There is nothing left to say.

The prince and Cinderella can't be together.

2002 SUPER STAR WE LOVE DENNIS

I tell you, pop stars don't have to know everything.

Look at them.

They can't sing or act.

But they look good.

Thanks to managers promoting them they are hot.

Remember what I tell you, okay?

-I remember everything. -Good.

-Good, then there's nothing to worry. -Peter.

You shocked me.

Why were Leo's posters removed?

Dennis is the new face of the agency. I have to promote him.

As for Leo, I'm putting him on the bench.

Why?

Why? He refused to take orders.

Everyone's singing bubblegum pop.

I want him to realize what failure is.

That'll teach him.

Peter. Bubblegum pop songs all sound the same.

Singing them is an insult to Leo.

You know he likes composing.

Why don't you support his talent?

Maggie, you're oblivious to everything, aren't you?

Don't you understand Producer Chen?

He's the boss.

If you don't obey the boss, you will pay the price.

Oh, yes, you beware too.

But Peter, you groomed Leo.

You don't care about him?

Can't you put in a good word for him?

You should talk to Leo instead.

If he would listen, I wouldn't need to groom

a block of wood.

I don't mean you.

If you won't go, I will.

-Hey, Maggie. -Get lost, Blockhead.

Blockhead, excuse me.

Maggie...

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Producer Chen isn't good. He has a hidden agenda.

Okay,

just don't look for Producer Chen without me.

If anything happens, I can't save you.

By the way I'm bringing Dennis on a program.

You know? Dennis has been on more programs than Leo.

LEO'S SEARCH FOR THE LAVENDER LOVER CONCERT

Can I have this?

Go ahead, we're throwing them away.

I'm putting him on the bench. I want him to realize what failure is.

That'll teach him.

-Hello? -Hello, who's this?

Producer Chen, I'm Maggie, from Peter's entertainment agency.

Maggie?

Oh, Maggie. What's the matter?

It's true that I asked Peter to talk to you about Leo's compositions.

I'm wondering about your response.

Well. Maggie, tell you what.

It's hard to discuss that over the phone.

Why don't you come to my office?

We'll discuss it.

Sure. When?

Tomorrow? It's Valentine's Day.

If you're free, do drop by.

We'll discuss Leo's work then and have a good chat.

On Valentine's Day...

I'll be waiting by the river.

This is my last chance.

It's fate that you leave Leo,

fate that you lose the bottle,

fate that your paths end here.

Liang Yixun, what are you hoping for?

You and Ji Qingchuan have no future.

Maggie.

Today is Valentine's Day.

I know you won't spend Valentine's Day with me.

This is the first time we haven't seen each other

on Valentine's Day since we met.

So...

I wanted to talk to you first.

Happy Valentine's Day.

Happy Valentine's Day.

Starting tomorrow, I hope we will be the best working partners.

No more emotional ties.

Blessing each other.

Maggie, you will always be my best friend.

I know Pete's recent attitude makes you feel bad.

But you have to be confident

that your creation will be a hit.

Hit or flop, it doesn't matter.

You are going on a date.

Don't be late on Valentine's Day.

Leo.

I'll help you as my last Valentine's Day gift to you.

You're wearing the clothes I gave you.

Yixun...

do you know how beautiful you are today?

Why is this lavender bottle here?

This lavender bottle is our boss' daughter's,

she went to a birthday party and picked it up.

Then our boss saw it.

She knows that lavender means waiting for love.

So, it's mass-produced as a Valentine's Day gift.

-Take it to the next couple of guests. -Yes.

Oh, wait a minute.

In the end, the prince finds Cinderella

and puts on the glass slipper on her foot.

They live happily ever after.

Xun, he's a terrible curse for you.

He'll hurt you all over, you know?

You won't be happy with him.

When I lost the lavender bottle,

I thought that we were over,

and decided not to meet him again.

But you see,

another pair of new lavender bottles,

exactly the same.

I think...

it's like you said.

Everything is destined by heaven.

Me and him...

Maybe there will be a new beginning.

Okay.

Maybe there will be a new beginning.

Starting today.

You cry for him again,

I'm not going to comfort you anymore.

I'm not going to do anything for you anymore.

My love for you will die completely in my heart

because I think I'm tired, I'm really tired.

Sorry.

I can't reciprocate your feelings.

Miss Maggie.

-Just a moment. Our boss is coming. -Okay, thanks.

Hey, Maggie, you're here.

Hey, Linda. Today is Valentine's Day. You can get off work early.

-Have a good Valentine's Day. -Thank you, Boss.

Mr. Chen, I'm here today to talk to you about Leo's composition.

Does Peter know you're coming?

Actually, just leave it to Peter.

I think Leo is lucky to have you recommending him so enthusiastically.

But I think you have more potential than him.

You...

Well, let's not talk about Leo.

Today you are here. Let's talk about you.

If you think so, you can compose for Leo.

Aren't you naive?

You didn't mean to help Leo at all.

You deceived me.

There's no way to fight me.

Hey, don't you know that Peter is waiting for me to invest in his company?

Then even Peter will listen to me.

What's more, you and Leo will too.

In that case, why did you ask me to meet again?

I'm only concerned about you.

I can grab anyone I see as soon as I open the door,

and make him as famous as Leo,

I can even make him as famous as Tom Cruise.

Hey, I advise you, think for yourself.

See if you want to outdo Nanako Matsushima or Ayumi Hamasaki.

I have no problem with that.

What you said is true.

Of course, it's true. How could I lie to you?

What? You are so afraid of me?

-Hello. -Producer Chen,

promise, you will help Leo create music.

Okay, any questions?

Let me kiss you first.

Go away...

Maggie! Maggie!

Peter, tell me Producer Chen's address.

Blood. Oh no.

I'll faint from seeing blood.

Help. Ambulance. Help! Help!

Maggie.

Maggie.

-Maggie. -Go away.

-Maggie, -Get away.

Don't touch me.

Go away.

Maggie, it's me. Look.

Leo...

It's me, what happened?

Tell me.

I asked Producer Chen to use your song.

But he… he…

Okay…

At that moment...

I suddenly felt Maggie needed Qingchuan more.

Perhaps... I've lost Qingchuan.

Even if Qingchuan can forget everything to be with me,

he will never forget how Maggie sacrificed for him.

Why were you so silly?

Before that happened,

Maggie came to see me.

I could only think of leaving her

and going to see you.

I was so selfish to think...

that it was her

who caused so many misunderstandings.

I didn't know she was going to sacrifice herself when we parted.

Maggie's been through a lot because of me.

Can I leave her?

Can I be happy?

Can I really be happy?

I can't.

I can't be so selfish.

But I want to be with you forever.

I want take care of you.

You don't have to worry about me.

Forget my illness.

She needs you more than I do.

Actually, I was lying about my illness.

That's impossible. You're lying.

I'm sorry.

I lied.

I lied because...

I'm no different from other girls.

I will get jealous.

Maggie is so attractive.

I really didn't know how dear I was in your heart.

So, I lied. I didn't think you'd fall for it.

This way...

I know you truly love me.

And that's enough.

Thank you.

Thank you for all the memories.

With all these memories...

I can carry on with my life alone.

Treat Maggie well.

Make yourself happy.

This way...

we won't have regrets.

Although we're parting,

our hearts are together.

Promise me...

you will lead a happy life.

I promise you.

It's passed midnight.

The fairy tale is over.

Cinderella must face a harsh reality.
