=Episode 36=

No.

I'm Xiaoran's high school classmate.

Now, I'm an employee in Jifeng.

So, Mr. Lin

is your superior.

No wonder you're taking care of his son.

Yes.

Li Hui is making a video call.

Hui.

Congratulations.

I have a performance tomorrow.

So, I can't be there.

I'll drink here with you.

Come on.

Come on.

Thank you. Cheers.

The home banquet is not bad.

Yes, Sui is here as well.

Here.

Talk to her.

New clothes?

I bought this earlier.

It's nice.

Okay, go ahead and eat first.

I'm not going to disturb you all.

I'm hanging up. Bye.

Won't you chat with her?

That's wine.

Drink slowly.

Send me home later.

(Xiaoran,)

(what's your decision?)

Are you not happy?

I need to

discuss something with you later.

Okay.

Let's eat.

Okay.

Let's eat, everyone. Eat the fish.

Okay.

(Yunlan Jifeng Hotel)

Bring Taiyang in and get him to bed.

I'm not going in.

Wait for me. I'll send you home.

No need. I'll get a taxi.

Feng thought that we're

seeing each other.

Are you upset about that?

No.

Why did you...

Lin Zong.

I know

you actually treat me well.

I like you, too.

You and Taiyang have really

made me feel the warmth

like sunlight.

I enjoy it so much.

But I realised today that

something is not right.

What's not right?

Let's not talk about this now.

Bring Taiyang in and get him to bed.

Don't catch a cold.

I'm going home now.

(Yunlan Jifeng Hotel)

Xiaoran,

you're getting ready to start the marriage leave tomorrow?

I'm handling over my work.

I've already applied

leave.

Is there anything?

I've discussed with Lili

and we want you

to have the right

to choose for yourself.

What's the matter?

Are you not happy?

No.

Xiao Shangqi.

Wusu Radio & TV Group has a spot for

the substitution of the journalist

of the international station in Li Country.

But she got pregnant

and she can't make it.

We need someone to replace her.

The flight takes off

at 8 p.m. tomorrow.

We need to go to Shenzhen

to do an internal training

for a week

and depart in batches.

I...

- You want to go? - I...

I want to go.

What if I said no?

I know this is

rather sudden,

but you know that

becoming a war correspondent

has always been my dream.

We've also been through

so many things.

I believe the long-distance relationship

will not affect our love,

but we may not be able to meet

for a while.

It could be half a year.

It could be a year.

What about our wedding?

Wait for me to come back.

We'll get the marriage certificate

and resume the road trip

when I'm back,

okay?

No.

I don't agree with that.

Xiaoran.

I know

a war correspondent sounds cool,

but do you know how dangerous it is?

This is not about the distance

and the marriage certificate.

I don't want to lose you anymore.

I know.

Xiao Shangqi.

I...

Take a rest first.

I was carrying stuff

so I didn't see your message.

Just stay where you are.

My mother has been very annoying.

I have nowhere to hide.

Where are our

disposable cups?

Where are the disposable cups?

There's no reply.

Is the equipment more expensive

It's not

but the footage inside.

The content of the interview is valuable.

there's no second chance.

I know you're worried about me,

but I've thought for a night

and I...

You're still determined to go.

Because that's

been your dream.

Xiaoran.

I've also thought about it.

We have just

got back together,

I'm reluctant to see you leave,

and I'm worried about your safety,

but

I'll still support you to fulfill your dream.

I just have one condition.

What condition is that?

No matter what,

we must register our marriage

before you leave.

I don't want to wait for

too long.

Okay.

That's a deal.

After you get things done tomorrow, I'll be waiting for you

at the Bureau of Civil Affairs at 3 p.m.

Bring your household register.

Okay.

You can arrange

more night shifts for Sun Liang

as there's not many.

Switch it with

Kong Xiaoxue's schedule.

It's more balanced now,

isn't it?

Mr. Lin.

Get back to work first.

Okay.

What's the matter?

I'm not sure about

the resignation procedure

so I can only write it on a piece of paper.

Please help me out.

(Resignation Letter)

Are you sure about this?

(Resignation Letter)

Okay.

(Wusu Changle Bureau of Civil Affairs)

(Sorry.)

(The number you've dialled)

(cannot be reached at the moment.)

(Please try again later.)

(Sorry, I can't make it.)

(The gathering time is ahead of schedule.)

(We need to depart now.)

Xiaoran, let's go.

Coming.

Xiao Shangqi,

wait for me.

Xiaoran.

I'll come back safely.

Okay.

(Eight months later)

The livestreaming hasn't started yet,

but this account has logged in.

The account ID is Guitar Girl.

He joins our livestreaming every time.

He'd be the first person who

watches all of our vlogs

without failure.

It doesn't matter.

We just focus on doing our music.

It's good that we have fans,

but we can still enjoy

even if there's none.

They just come and go.

It's all fate.

Are you tired?

I'm not tired.

It's ready.

Do the opening.

Okay.

(Hello, everyone.)

(We're an individual band.)

(Wave Band.)

(We'd just sing）

(at wherever we go.)

(Today's our)

(100th stop.)

(Let's combine freedom and music.)

Okay.

Next,

we'll focus on homestays.

I knew it.

You're watching this again.

What?

Why are you so useless?

So useless.

You're getting on my nerves.

Xixi, calm down.

He's just absent for a while.

It's because of Mr. Sui

that the retail is doing well.

Am I angry about that he's absent?

I'm angry because he's such a coward now.

He's no longer

brave and carefree.

You're nothing like

my son.

I haven't finished talking.

I dare you to get her back.

Don't you think Mr. Sui

is different now?

What are you talking about? Carry on with the meeting.

Mr. Hua, Miss Li,

I'm Chen Fei'er from Xinrui Advertising.

If your company

needs anything for your publication,

you can contact me.

I'll leave you be.

I'll leave you be.

It's been a while.

How's Taiyang doing?

He's fine.

He's about to graduate from the kindergarten.

How are you?

I'm now working in Xinrui Advertising's

marketing department.

Business development manager?

Not bad.

I thought

you've left this city.

I didn't know that you're still in Wusu.

Taiyang's about to celebrate his birthday.

How did you know that?

Look at you.

Taiyang always sends me messages

using your mobile phone

and you're not aware of that.

Really?

Don't take it personally.

I'll scold him later.

Well,

see you then.

The children's restaurant on the Peixin Street.

How did it go?

(From He Xiaoran who is missing you)

(The place where I am now)

(is the refugee camp.)

(Let us take a closer look)

(at their current situation.)

(Although the condition is poor,)

(they're still)

(hanging children's pictures and paintings)

(on the walls.)

(It shows us that)

(they're having hopes for the future.)

How's everything?

- It's okay. - Not bad.

Wang.

Get a plate.

(There's no water in the hotel that I'm staying.)

(Can you relate how it feels for)

(not being able to shower after a long day?)

(The weather is good though.)

(Although the safety here is bad,)

(the nature is fair.)

(The sunshine here is as bright as Wusu.)

(When are you coming back?)

She'll not reply the important question.

Do you wish to see my reply or me back here?

Isn't this the person who just walks away

and seldom calls?

Why are you back?

Of course I need to come back.

I need to come back to get married.

I came to look for you after landing

without putting back my luggage.

Get married?

With whom?

Do I know him?

Xiaoran.

When did you come back?

I just came back.

Does Mr. Xiao know? I...

He's in there.

Did he pretend like he doesn't care again?

It's okay.

I'm prepared

for this.

Coaxing is easy.

After all, I was a hostess for a relationship program.

I got this.

(Sorry, the number you've dialled)

(cannot be reached at the moment.)

Mr. Xiao.

Mr. Xiao.

Your parcel.

What's it?

Take a look.

Mr. Xiao.

Let me wash it

and get some water for you.

It must be sweet.

Go ahead.

Sure.

Be careful not to break it.

Don't worry.

What does this mean?

(Working on different careers,)

(but we're not going to be separated.)

Mr. Xiao.

You should stop

your little game.

Don't go overboard.

The delivery guy said

Xiaoran is asking you out

to eat crayfish at the usual place.

If you agree to go,

send her

a photo immediately.

I'll wash the cup.

(Working on different careers, but we're not going to be separated.)

That's all for my report.

Thanks again for giving me

this opportunity.

Okay, the meeting is adjourned.

Okay.

It's tough not

to reply my email, right?

Miss He,

you've got so much in return this time.

It's not easy to get my husband.

If you need anything,

just let me know.

The entire news channel will adjust accordingly.

What?

Was my joke that bad?

No, I just feel cold

in here.

Really?

Why are you so warm?

This is not right.

Am I having a fever?

It's okay. I'll go get some medicine

from the infirmary.

Hurry up.

I was thinking

if the air-con was turned on.

Take care of yourself.

(Sorry, I can't make it today.)

What's going on?

I'm here.

Where are you?

Wait for me.

(Emergency department, inpatient department)

Where is He Xiaoran? What happened?

(Patient ward) She's having a high fever.

According to the international movement records,

she could be infected.

We're arranging the checkups for her.

Don't go in.

No one can go in before the illness is verified.

Xiaoran.

Why did you come in here?

You might get infected.

Get out now.

What did the doctor say?

The doctor said I'll only be healed

by getting married.

Will you save me?

You have yet to say yes.

Will you save me?

You need to marry me to save me.

You lied to me?

Only you can pretend that you're sick,

but I can't?

Also, I'm not pretending.

I'm really sick.

It's just that

I exaggerated it a little.

Of course we can get married,

but you must not frighten me

again like this.

Also,

I don't wish you to leave me anymore.

Are you okay?

I want to eat the cake.

No, someone is not here yet.

We're already eating.

She won't come.

She will.

No worries.

Let's eat something else first.

Taiyang, sit down.

Father,

I want to call Madam Fei'er.

Madam Fei'er

might be busy now.

Let's eat the cake, okay?

Taiyang,

so many friends were here to celebrate

your birthday.

Are you happy?

Father,

I know you like Madam Fei'er,

but why Madam Fei'er

didn't come?

Is it my fault?

Of course it's not.

Why would it be your fault?

It's because of me.

It's because of me.

My car was broken.

It delayed me for a while.

Taiyang, happy birthday.

I didn't want others to think that

I can only rely on a man

to another man

and become a burden to you and Taiyang.

So, I wanted to

prove myself first

and stand by your side

bravely and openly.

I didn't manage to get a taxi

so I ran here in a rush.

I might not be as clean and as beautiful

as before now.

Taiyang.

Lin Zong.

Will you accept

the current me?

Do you know how much Taiyang and I

have missed you in the past six months?

I'm sorry.

I didn't look for you

because I once

forced someone to stay.

I know that

you deserve

a better life,

but Fei'er,

if that's the reason

that you left,

you really didn't have to leave

because you're good enough.

Do you know

that's always what I wanted to hear

since young?

Madam Fei'er.

You're great.

I like you the most.

Taiyang!

- Happy birthday! - Happy birthday!

Come and eat the cake.

Go in and have a look.

Sui.

Sui.

Congratulations on your grand opening.

When will you get the marriage certificate?

It's brand new.

Okay, enough.

It's happening today.

How I wish Li Hui was here.

I have only known Li Hui for a few years

and I miss her so much.

You and her

are childhood friends.

It's been a while.

Don't you miss her?

She didn't contact me.

I heard from Xixi that

you've been

surfing the Internet.

No, I was...

Sui,

are you happy lately?

I've never seen

you being such a coward.

You even used a fake ID

to show your concern.

Li Hui told me that

you're someone

full of sense of safety.

You'd never be scared of losing

and couldn't be careless.

You're living a carefree life

so others would envy you.

Why are you so different

when it comes to her?

Love makes someone brave.

Guess what makes someone timid?

What?

It's love, too.

There's something one

can't figure out by himself.

Dajiabang For Everyone's

20th Anniversary Special Program?

Although the name of the program has changed to Goodnight,

the core of it

is still Dajiabang.

So, the station wants

to sell emotions.

I didn't want to look for you,

but in the online voting

about which host should have a comeback,

you got the most votes.

I'm so popular

among

the audiences.

Don't be so proud of yourself. Are you coming or not?

♪Afraid of losing confidence in my eyes♪

♪Listening and thinking of a sound♪

♪Regain the courage♪

Li Hui!

♪It's you who came for me♪

♪It's you who existed for me♪

♪It's you who embraced my future♪

♪It's you who is my forever love♪

♪You're guarding me♪

Hello, everyone.

I'm your old friend,

Miss He.

It's been a while. How are you all doing?

Today's Dajiabang For Everyone's

20th anniversary.

The program name was changed and the hosts were changed.

The listenership was once

below average

for a long time,

but it was once the most famous program

in the station.

Some people started their career here

and some people retired here.

It's been 20 years.

It's been a beam of light that

shines in the dark.

It once

made you and I warm.

Today,

let's

talk about

the story about time and love.

(In the sea of time,)

(we'll go to a faraway place along with the tide.)

(We met and we got separated from each other.)

(We've been through the joy of reunion)

(and the pain of losing.)

(After being ground by the wave,)

(we've finally understood that)

(love is neither contribution nor redemption.)

(It's not even playing)

(someone's perfect role.)

(Only when you become better,)

(you'll meet a better person to love)

(and a better life.)

(After going through hardship,)

(there might be more to come.)

(After solving the problems,)

(there might be more to come.)

But when we're not afraid of losing anymore,

we'll have the courage to move forward.

Everyone knows that I love you,

but only we'll know

what

love is.
