[Almost Lover]

[Episode 7]

Li Hui said Old Sui has stomach pains so she took him to the hospital.

They come to pick up later.

It's about to get dark. It might bee too late by the time they get back.

True, is dark.

I remember there is a homestay nearby.

How about...

Then, we don't go back.

To homestay.

What are you thinking about?

- Nothing.
- No? You zoned out.

I just suddenly feel a a bit chill.

Get chill.

Are you still cold?

They said they are not coming.

Let's tell them to go.

Let's go.

Xiaoran said she's not coming.

Stay overnight at Homestay.

We should go too.

Let's go back and get our things together.

I told you to give up. Look at what happened now.

You're heartbroken, aren't you?

Not at all.

Enough, stop throwing them.

You made not a single bit of commotion throwing those. It's about time you give up.

Throw this.

It's littering to throw this in there.

It's littering to throw it into the lake, but it's a painkiller if you throw it into your stomach.

Come on, let's drink some medicine.

I can't drink too much...

I won't let you drink too much.

If Xiao Shangqi asks, tell him your stomach hurts.

What does that mean?

My stomach hurts?

[Become friends with nature, experience being with nature.]

All rooms are fully filled.

The weather is nice for the next couple of days.

Why don't you make do with staying here for tonight?

I have the sleeping bag there.

The scenery is very nice here.

You can see the stars next to the pool at night.

You can see sunrise in the lake, so cool.

Fine, thanks.

Are you feeling unwell?

Don't worry.

Your heart is racing. Why don't you go in the tent first?

Xiaoran, how can my heart not race when you're sitting so close to me?

Don't worry.

This pool is shallow.

As long as the water isn't too deep, It does not matter.

Look. Is that the Orion?

The Orion is 1,500 light years away from Earth.

You were in the Astronomy Club in high school.

I didn't think you'd still know so much about stars now.

What I'm trying to say is that the light we see it emitting with the naked eye

is the result of it being in the dark for a long time.

Do you think this is what they mean when they say "a glance of ten thousand years"?

Lucky for me, it didn't take me that long to realize the sparkle you have in your eyes.

Sunrise.

Sunrise now.

I fell asleep.
Yes, we talked till sunrise.

But someone is falling asleep.

It is lucky I don't miss this.

I can check off another item off my list.

What do you forget?

Nothing.

Xiaoran.

Why I feel that you live as if today is always your last day?

I worry you regret.

Regret.

Xiaoran, let me tell you something.

I went abroad with her when we graduated because...

Look! Look!

How beautiful it is!

I heard that the lake freezes here in the winter.

It will get different scenery.

You feel unsecur.

Is that I hasn't confess my feeling.

Xiaoran.

Because I left without saying goodbye on the day in university graduation.

We waste three good years.

Now, I don't want to lose you.

Can we start over again in Wusu?

From now on I will never leave you without telling you.

Will we?

You really like me?

It's okay.

We have plenty of time.

I will show it to you.

I mean I feel you really like me.

I promise you.

You know, I put a wishlist in the time capsule.

I wrote down a lot of the things I wanted to do with you.

Now I start to realise it doesn't matter it is sky or sunrise.

They're just icing on the cake.

The only make me happy is you.

♫ When I'm by your side, we will not let go ♫

Freshly cooked edamame and peanuts. We grew these ourselves, give it a try.

- Thank you.
- Enjoy.

Honey, let me help you.

- You finished your work?
- Yes.

The weather is nice these next couple of days so there's a lot of guests in.

- Thank you for your hard work.
- It's okay.

The owner and his wife remind me of my parents.

They're also always busy in the kitchen.

Xiaoran, let's find a place so we can make breakfast together everyday.

You've stayed in hotels all these years.

You've never had a roommate. Would you be able to get accustomed to it?

I've had no fixed abode for so many years.

Everyday life is convenient in a hotel, and I don't know what it's like to live with someone else.

But if it's with you, I'd be willing to give it a try.

[WMG]

Xiaoran.

Director Zhou.

I've been meaning to tell you that the Weibo livestream you did was great.

Thank you, Director Zhou. I've been wanting to do a program focusing on families with more than one child.

You're interested in that topic?

I've been thinking that our program only waits for the audience to call in,

but perhaps there are some people that don't have the courage to ask for help.

What happened with Lele inspired me.

I think that we can focus on certain topics and heal more people's lives with our radio waves.

It's great.

Thank you, Director Zhou.

Sui Mingwei, what's with the pile of wood planks?

Oh.

Xiaoran's room doesn't have a place for her to put her books so I'm putting up a simple bookshelf on her wall.

It's for me?

There's no need.

It's okay, just let him put it up.

All your books are currently on the floor and it's difficult for you to find the one you need.

Put one up for me too.

Your wish is my command.

It really is okay.

Nailing onto the wall will leave marks. It'll be harder for you to find your next roommate.

What are you trying to say?

I'm planning on moving out.

I'm going apartment hunting with Xiao Shangqi tomorrow afternoon.

You're living together?

No, we're just rooming together. We'll each have our own room.

Roommates? Come on.

As long as you've thought it through.

I was pretty touched when he asked me.

He's been avoiding the feeling of having a family over the years,

so I don't want to disappoint him.

I just feel like I'm letting you two down.

I just moved in not long ago and it's such a comfortable and happy living space.

Don't move out then.

But I can understand. I just have one request.

Can you move out after my birthday?

Of course.

Tang Yan is coming back for your birthday this year. We're having a proper celebration, I remember.

Okay.

Xiaoran, firefighters are inspecting the place. I probably won't make it.

That's okay. Focus on work.

I have experience with house-hunting.

He won't be able to make it. Let's go in.

Okay. This way please.

It's a small two-story house with a large courtyard and two bedrooms.

I just had renovations at the beginning of the year.

The lighting is great, too.

The place is great, and the cost is doable too.

My boyfriend should like it.

Wait. You're moving in as a couple?

How long have you been dating?

A week.

You're moving in together after seven days?

- I'm not renting it. Thank you, please go.
- Ma'am.

Why aren't you renting it?

I really don't want to rent to couples in your situation.

Living together will cause so many problems.

He'll hate it when you leave your underwear lying around,

and you'll complain when you have to clean the toilet after he uses it.

Look.

Don't use it if you're not going to clean it!

The renters before you were also a couple.

The girl snored in her sleep.

They stopped renting after a month.

We're staying in separate rooms, and I don't snore.

Will you be staying in separate rooms forever?

I don't believe that one bit.

You won't know you snore until you've lived with someone else.

Where's your boyfriend?

He's busy today.

Busy? Young lady, you're still too young.

He can't miss out on seeing the place he's renting.

I bet he's having cold feet.

How's the house hunting going?

Don't mention it.

Sister Hui, Happy Birthday.

Cheers.

You're getting more beautiful.

- Don't drink too much.
- I'm heading back to the table.

How's it going?

I need to leave two months' worth of rent as a deposit

and pay three months' rent upfront for that place I'm looking at.

I still need to prove to the landlady that we are devoted lovers.

Do you really like that place so much?

I like the small garden.

I can plant flowers in that garden and add a rocking chair.

Like that, I can enjoy tea and relax in summer.

With a cosy home like this,

no matter what troubles I encounter out in the world, going home will bring peace of mind.

You want to offer such a soothing place for Xiao Shangqi too, don't you?

But I agree with the landlady.

Living with him is different from living with us.

We're friends.

We just have to avoid provoking each other.

But lovers need to adapt greatly to each other.

Fine. All my hopes are dashed.

The house has been rented out.

Forget it. Treat this as a good time to consider thoroughly.

Do you want to challenge each other with your flaws?

You're right. I can push my limits for dating.

Eight hours is manageable, but one's true nature will be revealed after spending 24 hours together.

I finally understand why you don't live with Tang Yan.

I want to live with him, but he has to be around.

He barely spends a few days in Wusu every year.

He came back this time just to record a song for a minor singer.

- He can only spend my birthday with me when he's done with that.
- Well, why hasn't he come over?

[Tang Yan: I'm still recording. I'll be late.]
I'm still recording. I'll be late.

He said he hasn't finished recording. We can enjoy our drinks first.

Let's kick off the fun then.

There's an unwritten saying in rock and roll.

When you're 18 to 25, those are the best years for enjoying rock and roll.

If you continue with rock and roll after you're 25, that's true faith.

I'm 25 years old this year.

I hereby declare rock and roll is my religion for this life!

[Happy Birthday]

Everyone, drink up. Thank you.

Clink mugs with me!

This is such an important occasion. Why are the two brother-in-laws so late?

Exactly.

You sure are fast in calling them that.

Li Hui, I wish your musician dreams will come true.

How's that? Come on.

I wish you eternal youth.

Brother-in-law, you're here. Why are you late? Drink up as punishment.

Li Hui, happy birthday.

Xiaoran says you like this band the most.

So, I got someone to get it from abroad. I hope you like it.

Your gift really struck my heart.

Is this compensation for stealing away my housemate?

Well.

Since everyone is here, let's take a group photo.

Let's take a photo with Brother Sui's phone. He has the latest model.

Sounds good.

Everyone, strike a pose.

Come on.

- Look at the camera.
- Come on.

Three, two, one.

I'll take a couple more.

Let me see.

- Old He.
- What is it?

Why are your eyes closed in every picture?

- Take a look yourself.
- Let me see.

- That's impossible.
- Take a look yourself.

More importantly, this lighting is too dazzling.

I can't open my eyes properly.

[I want to confess to someone. I adore you, He Xiaoran.]
I have his phone now. Does Brother Sui like Sister Xiaoran?

Cheeky brat, what are you blabbing on about?

That's all in the past.

Well...

Everyone's waiting for me to speak.

Fine. I'm driving today, so I'll drink water rin place of alcohol.

I only have one thing to say.

Xiao Shangqi, treat her well.

Make sure my heartbreak was worthwhile.

Xiao Feng. Oh, right.

Anyway, it's Sister Hui's birthday today.

Let me sing a song for everyone and get everyone pumped.

Applaud, everyone.

Great.

Sister Hui, is Mr. Tang coming or not?

Oh, he can't come because he's busy.

Though, I still want to be with him when the clock strikes midnight.

I'm heading off first. Tell everyone for me.

Let's go.

Hey, don't look like you're facing an arch enemy.

I've already let this pass.

When I date, I prioritize fate. I don't wait or force others.

What's wrong?

Couldn't you tell me earlier so I can reject you?

That's really hurtful to hear.

I told you right after I came back from Forest Park that day.

You were the one who ignored me.

Sui Mingwei, you're a friend I really treasure.

That's why I don't want your efforts to be buried so easily.

I've put in similar efforts too.

I haven't even done anything, but someone else has already gotten ahead of me.

If you think this is a real pity, that's fine.

Treat this as a short break for me.

When you two break up, I'll take the stage.

We're leaving first.

Take care. I won't see you off.

Yo, Li Hui. You're here.

Isn't Tang Yan done yet?

She's a third-rate singer, but she has a hot figure.

Her voice is horrible though.

That can be tweaked in the post-production.

The singer doesn't agree. She wants to strive to be better.

From the looks of it, she's aiming for something else with Tang Yan.

- Don't spout nonsense.
- Keep an eye on him.

Hey, play the music.

What is she singing?

Are you jealous?

She didn't want the two songs I wrote for her, but she just had to choose this one.

And you gave it to her?

I wrote this song for you. What right does she have to sing it?

I'll write another one for you.

Mr. Tang, let's not waste time.

I still need your guidance on many parts of this song.

This is such a simple song. How can there be so many issues?

I'm sorry.

We're discussing music and art.

People who have nothing to do with this shouldn't be bothering us.

I'll teach you. Listen carefully.

♪ The starting of farewell comes with letting go ♪

Li Hui's voice is a gift from the heavens.

Su Shan, learn from her.

Sounds wonderful.

Was it?

Suddenly, I find it rather bland.

Tang Yan, I don't want this song anymore.

Are you going after her?

I just love her sassiness.

Why are you here?

Nobody is going to eat it, but we can't waste it. So, I brought it over for you.

Where is Tang Yan?

It's almost midnight.

I want to blow out the candles.

Sure.

Happy birthday, Sister Hui.

I never counted how many times you were with me when I blow out such candles all these years.

That's a lot of times.

Anyway, I was with you every single time you celebrated your birthday.

Didn't you say he came back to celebrate your birthday with you?

I'll get him for you.

- Let's go home.
- Li Hui.

You two should break up.

I know you're upset today.

You must've drank too much.

Li Hui. Li Hui!

I've always wanted to say that.

When you two first started dating, I already thought that you weren't compatible.

Tang Yan doesn't even have a house in Wusu.

He lives off you and then leaves like the wind.

Do you really think he has a place for you in his future?

In your numerous past relationships, I never said a single word.

That's basic decency as friends.

Why are you bringing up decency with me?

I just feel unjust for you.

Besides rock and roll, what else has Tang Yan ever cared about?

Both of you are from different worlds.

Did He Xiaoran reject you because you aren't from the same world?

Well, why are you still pestering her?

Just because she has her happy ending doesn't mean you can destroy my relationship.

In your eyes, am I someone like that?

Fine.

You can stubbornly be at Tang Yan's beck and call.

Don't come to me crying when you break up.

Why aren't you asking about my tardiness?

Didn't the firefighters come?

That won't take up the entire day.

Busy, young lady, you are too young.

Flat viewing is such an important thing, how could he not come?,

It must be cold feet.

Doesn't dating require giving each other space? You didn't ask me about Old Sui either.

I didn't ask because I knew that I'm the only one in your heart.

Xiao Shangqi.

Yeah.

There is something I need to tell you in advance

I quite often will drop hairs, you may find hair on the pillows.

sofa, clothes, desktop.

There's also a large chance that I'll snore and grind my teeth in my sleep.

Ah.

Does it matter?

I just want to say.

In fact, moving together is not a trivial decision.

You have the full right to think over it and decide.

As a matter you should not made a haste decision.

Haste decision?

Love may disappear quickly once we spend all day and night together.

All hopes for a lovely romance may end up in a mess.

Won't that be a huge loss?

Who put these thwarted ides into your mind?

What I mean if you have sudden change of mind.

I don't understand and I don't withdraw.

I have had the place rented.

That is the reason why I was late.

You sent me tons of photos so excitedly.

After chatting for a while, you stopped.

So I went to the estate agent.

He said you were very pleased with that house.

So, I signed the contract and got someone to tidy up the place.

We can pack up and move in at any time.

How did you get Aunty Tian's approval?

Aunty Tian?

You mean the landlady.

Mm.

Auntie, don't you say you don't rent to couples.

You see this young lad is such a good looking.

His lifestyle won't be sloppy. I bet he'll take good care of my house.

Besides, he signed is for three year, such a sincere thought.

Thanks for your trust.

What? She didn't dish out any requirements?

Mm.

That's way too huge of a disparity. She even told me all that stuff.

One cannot only see the appearance.

A guy with pristine looks may hurl his dirty socks all over the house.

I promise I'll change my socks every day and wash them myself.

I don't mean that.

Xiaoran, we understand each other. Such problems won't arise.

How about that way, we make a pact.

I take care of housework every day.

I'll be back home before midnight. If I fail to do so, I'll kneel on durians.

I accompany you watching movie every night with you.

Enough.

I need to think about how to decorate our home.

I want to nurture tons of plants in the garden.

I want to buy a beautiful carpet.

I also want to buy a lot of cups to decorate the walls.

Alright.

No problem.

But I hope we can move in as soon as possible.

Fine.

I'll be staying out for the next few days.

Huh?

Where are you going, where are you living?

What is going on between you two?

Leave. All of you can leave and I'll get some peace.

Old Sui!

Director Xiao.

Jifeng's gardeners picked these for you based on your request.

They are pretty, easy to nurture, and prosperous. I guarantee that Host Xiao He will like them.

Director Xiao, Host Xiao He's room has been prepared.

I've paid attention to the her preferences and habits you mentioned.

Is that the style she likes?

I promise she'll love it.

When is she moving in? Do you need our help?

It's fine. I can handle the rest. You guys can head back.

- Okay.
- Sure.

- We're leaving.
- Thanks for the hard work.

[He XIaoran: I may not be able to move out so soon.]
I may not be able to move out so soon.

What is wrong these two, they are playing silence game.

Sui Mingwei, are you insane?

Weren't you ignoring me?

Why did you reject my parcel?

I rejected the parcel with Tang Yan's name on it. Does he even live with us?

There's no such person. Why should I receive it?

Tang Yan's parcels have always been sent to the penthouse.

You know this. Don't claim that you're clueless.

I don't really know.

If you want to receive the, go back and do it yourself. Anyway, I'll reject them if I see them.

What do you mean?

What's the hell is with you?

- Calm down. Don't flare up.
- He just has a bone to pick with me, doesn't he?

I will sign your package in future.

He's pissing you off so you'll come home.

Where do you live tonight?

The recording studio.

Could you sleep well there?

I can't sleep well.

I remember Tang Yan gave the song you wrote for him to that minor singer.

You didn't even protest.

Old Sui speaks without a filter, but he's just filled with indignance for you.

You've been friends for so many years. This can't continue.

It's exactly because we've been such long friends that some things shouldn't be said.

I don't care if thousands of people disapprove of Tang Yan and me, but not Sui Mingwei.

Why?

Because good friend say it.

It is like a seed planting in your heart, it will make you feel not secured.

I care of it.

If that is you, how to decide between your good friend and the one you love.

I am home, you could go back.

How are you settling in with the new home?

I haven't moved in. I'm still staying at Jifeng. When are you moving over?

You give me some more time.

Right now, Li Hui and Old Sui are quarreling.

I can't leave them in the lurch.

Besides, Li Hui refuses to come home for the past few days.

She's holed up in the recording studio with Tang Yan.

Have you been alone with Sui Mingwei for the past few days?

Mm.

It's not what you think.

Old Sui comes home really late every day and only wakes up at noon the next day.

If we aren't working at the station, we don't even meet.

But you're still staying alone with him.

You still laugh.

I don't see him as much as I see you.

Yo.

Your reluctance to part is really like a scene before the females' dormitory in university.

Hurry up, Director Xiao. It'll be the curfew time soon.

Don't you only come home in the middle of the night?

A-A coincidence.

All right.

You should go.

Fine.

Open the door.

Xiao Shangqi really grew up.

I thought he'll follow us in.

Hey, you breached our housemate regulations.

Whose regulations?

Don't you think a certain compulsive clean freak around,

our house has become far cosier to live in?

Hey, Old Sui, look at this. Li Hui is back.
