[Fairy From the Painting]

[Episode 18]

Yuxuan, you're here.

You changed your suit jacket?

I just lent it to someone.

But your jacket is here.

Who did you lend it to?

Du Yina.

She took my room card.

Room card?

Why did she have your room card?

Yuxuan.

It was an accident.

An accident?

Let me explain.

It's not what you think.

Liar!

You damn liar!

I'll be more careful from now on.

I'll stay away from other women.

You sound like I'm forcing you.

I'm willing to do that.

Silly,

you're the only one

in my heart.

Gu Yancheng,

I will never trust you again.

Hold on.

Yuxuan, are you alright?

Go away!

Silly girl, you misunderstood me.

I didn't.

You saw

Du Yina leaving my room

because I rejected her.

Yancheng,

my room is on the fifth floor.

Let's go upstairs and have a drink.

No, my girlfriend is waiting for me.

Your jacket...

Keep it.

Yancheng, you're back.

Why are you here?

I came to return your jacket.

I see.

You can leave now.

Yancheng,

I have something to tell you.

Go ahead.

You want me to say it here?

Alright.

Yancheng,

I came back from abroad for an exhibition

to show you

that I'm no longer the little girl I used to be.

I want to tell you,

I like you.

I believed

you thought no one would be good enough for you.

But I didn't expect...

I didn't expect to come back

and hear that you've got a girlfriend.

Don't cross the line.

I already have a girlfriend.

I hope you understand.

Please leave now.

If my girlfriend misunderstands,

it'll take me a long time to explain things to her.

Yancheng,

tell me what she has that I don't.

Why can't you give me

one last chance?

You never stood a chance,

so there's no such thing as one last chance.

Yancheng,

please leave.

Xun Yuxuan is the only woman I love.

That's it.

Are you telling me the truth?

What else do you want to hear?

Anyone would misunderstand.

It was late and the two of you

were in the same room.

You even changed your clothes.

Of course I'd get the wrong idea.

I swear,

it won't happen again.

Miss Xun, are you here for Mr. Gu?

Is he in the sculpture room?

He should be in the collection room now.

I'll take you there.

No need.

I know where it is. Go back to work.

Thank you.

It reminds you of why you started sculpting?

When did you come?

I just arrived.

Are you here for inspiration?

Yes.

When I was young,

it was because of this sculpture

that I became interested in sculpting.

I want to sculpt a fairy myself.

I've been wondering

how my ancestor made it so vivid.

Maybe

he got the inspiration

after seeing a real fairy dance.

That person who gave your family

the painting of the Flying Fairy

must have seen

a real fairy too.

He could only draw so beautiful a fairy

after seeing one with his own eyes.

Although the portrait is exactly like the sculpture,

it's obvious

that the creators had totally different feelings for the fairy.

We don't know

how she felt about them thousands of years ago.

But,

thank God

for letting me meet my fairy.

Take this kiss

as a reward.

I'll leave you to work.

I need to go somewhere and will go home later.

Dad.

You scared me.

Why didn't you tell me you were coming back?

Dad, where are the videos Mom left?

What videos?

Those dancing videos.

You want to dance again?

You got into the hospital because of dancing.

Why do you want to dance again?

Dad.

Dad, I'm fine now.

I wanna learn to dance.

You're not fine.

Even if you didn't have post-traumatic stress,

you still can't dance.

You haven't danced since you were eight.

Do you remember how to dance?

No way.

I just want to learn

the dance Mom performed back then.

What dance?

The dance

Mom performed for me once when I was a kid.

It seemed

to be a Dunhuang dance.

Dad, please let me learn to dance.

If I make it,

it'll mean that I've fully recovered.

You don't have to worry about me anymore.

Right?

Dad.

They're in the study.

Thank you, Dad.

Hope it's just a whim.

Let me see...

Here they are.

Yes. Look in that direction.

Good. Look out.

Push your hips out as your eyes move.

Dad,

do we still have that DVD player?

DVD player?

It was sold long ago.

Then I'll take them back to my place.

Wait.

Look at this.

[Dance Your Way Theater. Dance Drama]

[The Fairy]

[Dance Drama]

[The Fairy]

This pose

is a bit similar to the fairy's pose in the painting.

Let me take a look.

Dad,

is this theater still open?

This one.

I haven't visited it in years.

I don't know if it has closed down.

I'll go check it out myself.

I'm leaving.

You came all the way here.

Won't you stay for dinner?

Gu Yancheng's competition is approaching.

Time is running out.

I'll call you

before I come back next time.

Bye.

Now I know

why they say the father is the daughter's lover.

She dumped me after she got a boyfriend.

Honey,

I feel heartbroken.

That's right.

This is the theater where Mom used to dance.

Hello.

Hello?

How can I help you?

Are there any seats left for that performance?

Yeah. Which seating section would you like?

Any section that's left.

There are seats left in all sections.

Then I want a seat in the best section.

480 yuan.

It's done.

Thank you.

Someone actually paid to watch that dance drama.

It's so similar.

Great!

Great!

Great!

Thank you.

Audience can't enter the backstage.

I'm looking for someone.

Can you help me send a word in?

Who are you looking for?

The girl who danced on the stage.

You mean the dancer is a girl?

Isn't she?

You don't even know the gender.

I'll say it again.

Only staff can enter the backstage.

Please send a word for me.

I need to talk with him. It's urgent.

Sorry. Please leave.

Xun Yuxuan?

I know her. Let her in.

Okay.

How can a boy be so pretty?

And he knows me.

Xun Yuxuan,

what are you doing here?

You know me?

Don't you recognize me?

It's me, Gao Jiaqian.

Gao Jiaqian?

When you were young,

you came to this theater with your mother.

You forgot it all?

Hey.

Who are you?

She's rehearsing.

You can't be here.

Don't get me wrong.

My dad works in the theater.

Then what are you doing here?

I'm here to watch Ms. Fairy dance.

Ms. Fairy?

Are you talking about her?

You like dancing?

Yes, very much.

I can teach you. I know how to dance.

But Dad said

boys shouldn't learn to dance.

Your dad is wrong.

You can learn

whatever you like.

I want to dance on the stage

like Ms. Fairy.

No problem.

I'll ask my mom

to teach you.

She's your mother?

Yes.

After the accident,

I never met you again.

Do you dance now?

I stopped dancing

after the accident.

By the way,

the dance you just performed

was the one my mom danced back then?

Yes.

I couldn't forget

your mother's dance.

I didn't give up dancing after I grew up.

A few years ago, I found the choreographer of that dance

and had it redesigned.

I wanted to bring the dance of the fairy

back on stage.

But...

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Yuxuan, what brought you here?

You wanna talk with me?

I came to try my luck,

but now,

I want you to teach me to dance.

But I need to do performances.

Forget it.

Anyway,

I don't know when I'll be on stage the next time.

I can teach you.

Besides,

I have plenty of time.

You can practice in our rehearsal room.

When do you want to start?

I want to start as soon as possible.

Are you sure?

You haven't danced for almost 20 years, right?

I'm sure.

What's more,

I hope I can learn it in half a month.

Half a month?

I know

it may be very difficult.

But when you danced just now,

you looked just like my mom.

You were very beautiful.

I'm very confident with you as my teacher.

You have that much faith in me?

Fine.

I'll make a plan for you.

The training

will start tomorrow.

OK.

I'll do my best.

Why are you still up?

Why did you come back so late?

Did something happen?

I went to see my dad.

How about

I bring him here tomorrow?

It's okay.

From what I know about him,

he wouldn't want to come.

Have you had dinner?

Yes.

It's a four-hour drive

from here to your dad's place.

I'll go with you next time.

Okay.

You really dote on me.

What's wrong?

It hurts.

What's wrong? Are you okay?

Well...

It hurts to know you've just realized that.

You learned this sweet trick

from Shao Jie, right?

No.

Loving you taught me that.

Go to the sculpture museum with me tomorrow.

Sorry.

If you don't go,

I won't feel motivated.

I'll have no energy to carve.

This is the compensation.

Are you motivated now?

Close.

What about now?

That's more like it.

You have to know

this kiss is for the day after tomorrow.

I'm going to take a shower.

Gao Jiaqian.

Yuxuan.

What? You don't recognize me again?

You were a beautiful lady yesterday.

It's a handsome guy standing before me.

How can I recognize you?

As a professional dancer,

yesterday,

I was just a character.

Today

I am myself.

So professional.

The drawing you sent me. Come over.

I've seen the drawing you sent me.

So you want

to include the move of the fairy in the painting

in the dance.

Yes.

It also has to be a Dunhuang dance.

Is it hard?

Your mother

was good at Dunhuang dance.

Dunhuang dance is not difficult.

But

your ill painting skill

makes it challenging for me to imagine that move.

It's kind of impressionist.

Forget the details. The impression is the most important.

Although I'm not a good painter,

this move is actually very beautiful.

Just make do with it.

Well...

I can pay you more.

Not necessary.

You've paid me enough to teach you.

Then can I finish learning in half a month?

According to your requirements,

I designed a plan.

Half a month

probably will be enough.

But you have to train

for ten hours every day.

Can you do it?

No problem.

Okay, let's start now.

Okay.

Come.

Follow my rhythm

and do some moves.

Like this.

Follow my rhythm.

Five, six, seven, go.

One, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Raise your leg slowly. Hands go over.

One, two, three, four.

Stay there.

Stand still.

Keep your legs straight.

Straighten your knees.

Next move.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Yuxuan.

Hold your fingers this way.

Move in a circle.

Yes, look at your hands. Up.

Put your right hand before the chest. Pull it down.

Move your left hand a little higher.

Yes. Look that way.

Good. Look out.

Push your hips out as your eyes move.

The right hip. Push it out. Yes.

Next, raise your leg.

Raise your leg slowly. Hands over there.

Don't wobble.

Keep your legs straight.

Mom, I'm so tired.

I don't want to dance this anymore.

What do you want to learn?

I want to learn the dance you've been practicing.

You're too young.

You haven't even learned the basics.

After you grow up and master the basics,

you can learn it.

I want to watch you dance.

Mom,

can you perform the whole dance for me?

Sure.

A few days later,

I'll put on a nice dress

and dance for you, OK?

OK.

Let's go on practicing.

Remember how the hands move?

Draw a circle.

Put your right hand down.

Your wrist.

Yes, then...

Then, push your hips out.

Move your hips out.

Look to the right.

Yuxuan, are you okay?

I'm fine.

I just feel a little dizzy.

I think it's because you haven't danced in a long time.

Your body can't take

such tense training.

Looks like we have to change your training plan.

No.

I didn't fall because of that.

Then why did you fall?

Let's continue.

Come.

Yuxuan,

why don't we take a break?

It's okay. Time is ticking.

Okay.

Follow me.

Let's take it slow.

Let's start from where we stopped.

One, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four.

Hold still.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Here.

Put your hand here.

Okay.

Yes.

Stand still.

Turn your knees outwards.

Yes.

Every time you do this move,

you have to hold very still.

You need to build muscle memory.

Next.

Five, six, seven, go.

Squat.

Turn around.

The hand goes up.

The flower shop has been busy these days?

Why are you so tired?

Don't worry.

I'll take it as a workout.

Don't forget

I used to practice taekwondo.

But you can't exhaust yourself every day.

If you're short-handed,

hire someone new.

Don't worry.

I know what I'm doing.

I'll take a hot bath first.

Six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four.

Good.

Stand straight.

Go.

One, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Raise your hands.

Keep it straight.

Okay.

A bit higher.

And your feet.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Good.

Wait.

Move your hands like this.

Up.

Then down.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four, five, six.

Turn around.

Keep your eyes on the front.

Again.

Like this.

Higher.

Lower your body.

Like this?

OK.

Five, six, seven.

Higher hands.

Yes.

Keep your body low.

OK.

-Do I do it right? -Yeah.

Yuxuan, take a rest.

I need to answer the call.

Okay.

Something happened in the dance troupe?

What?

I see.

I'll be right there.

Jiaqian,

what happened?

Yuxuan, I have to go out for a while.

Practice by yourself.

I'll come back tonight

and make up the time for you, okay?

No problem. Go.

Okay.

Alright, Yuxuan.

That's all for today.

Okay, thank you.

Jiaqian, I gotta go.

Yuxuan.

You could have finished today's training earlier

if I hadn't left suddenly.

It's too late. Let me send you home.

Okay, let's go.

Okay.

Let's go.

Who is that man?

[Dear Mr. Gu]

Yuxuan, your house is so luxurious.

Thank you

for sending me home at this hour.

It's okay.

Sorry for keeping you late.

I'll leave. See you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow?

See you tomorrow.

Sorry.

I came back late and made you worry.

I didn't expect

you to call me so many times.

I said I'd go pick you up.

Why didn't you call me?

I'm not a kid.

You don't have to pick me up every day.

Who is the man sending you back?

He

is a friend of mine.

We knew each other since childhood.

Why did he send you back?

He asked me for help.

It was too late, so he sent me home.

Why? Are you jealous?

Jealous? How is that possible?

I'm better than him

in terms of appearance, body shape, and career.

Jealous? Impossible.

No one is comparable to you

in terms of being bossy and narcissistic.

But I like these traits of you.

Am I being narcissistic?

I'm just telling the truth.

Yeah, you're telling the truth.

I'll go to work.

Kiss me.

I'm leaving.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Morning, Ms. Lin.

Morning.

Work hard, everyone.

Ms. Lin smiled just now.

Looks like she's in a good mood today.

All right. Get back to work.

What do you want for lunch?

Japanese food.

Do I sound too cold?

I wanna have Japanese food.

No.

Could you take me to have Japanese food, darling?

No. It's disgusting.

Japanese food.

No problem.

That Japanese restaurant is a bit far from here.

It'll take us too much time to get there.

I have work on hand.

How about I order takeout in advance

and come to your office for lunch?

Just say that you need to have a word with me.

Okay.

It's the working hour.

You should not be texting.

Finish editing the photos for Blooming

before noon.

Ms. Lin is waiting.

I remember sending the edited photos to you yesterday,

but you haven't replied yet.

So it's my problem?

You should've reminded me

when I didn't reply to you.

You're a newbie.

How can you slack off

like this?

Show me the photos now.

What's wrong with the tone?

It's horrible.

It doesn't have the vibes of youth.

What's your advice?

Fine.

Prepare different versions of them.

We'll make a choice later.

OK.

Yao Yuan,

don't think you can claw your way up the corporate ladder

through a handsome face.

Understand?

What do you mean?

I mean what I said.

Focus on your work.

Don't be a gigolo who only knows sucking up to women.

Are you talking about me?

Ms. Lin.

Ms. Lin.
