Met you by Gong Wuyue

♫ The moment you pass by my side ♫

♫ Smiling ♫

♫ You entered my heart ♫

♫ How happy the two of us are under the clear sky ♫

♫ The promise we once made ♫

♫ Is like a love song echoing in the bottom of the heart ♫

♫ Laughter replaces silence ♫

♫ Like dazzling fireworks ♫

♫ Meeting you like this, getting closer unintentionally ♫

♫ The silence melts away because I can't help it ♫

♫ It's like I feel a connection with you ♫

♫ But I'm unwilling to trust it easily ♫

♫ Meeting you like this has filled me with surprises ♫

♫ So deep in my memory is our mutual connection ♫

♫ In my life, ♫

♫ I have been able to meet you ♫

[Meeting You]

♫ The sweetness of a first love ♫

♫ The relationship between us ♫

♫ Just let me be by your side forever ♫

♫ This first love ♫

♫ I will do anything to have all the romantic times with you ♫

Nan Xi.

Nan Xi.

Are you ready?

Let's go.

Good morning grandma!

Is breakfast ready?

It's downstairs.

I'm going to have breakfast!

She's really grown up now.

Good morning grandpa!

Slow down, slow down, slow down.

Hot! Hot! Be careful.

Isn't it the nine o'clock train?

What's the hurry?

Today is Monday.

Nan Xi said there might be traffic.

Rui Rui.

Your mother is calling again.

Is it really unnecessary to send you off?

This girl is all grown up, can't make her stay anymore.

This is mom's friend at Binhai.

This is Uncle Wang's business card.

At Binhai, no matter what you encounter,

you can find Uncle Wang.

- He will try his best to help you. - Okay.

You've never left home.

If you can't get used to staying in the school dormitory,

it's okay.

Do not force yourself. Okay?

Okay.

It's late. Get in the car.

Mom. If you miss me, just call me.

Video call is also fine.

Okay.

I am leaving.

Go.

After three months I'll come back for winter vacation.

Alright, alright.

Okay, okay, okay.

Good, good, good.

I'm leaving.

Once you're gone no one will complain to me anymore.

My life will be a little better.

Stop watching your idol dramas. Don't get caught.

Okay, okay, okay. Don't worry.

Xia Rui, have a round with grandpa.

Let's go.

One, Two, Three, Four.

- It'll hurt, be gentle. - Five, Six, Seven.

- You learn this fast. - The taxi is here.

- Grandpa. - Nan Xi!

- Grandma. - Nan Xi.

This young man is so handsome.

We'll be leaving then.

Let me do it.

She is strong, let her take it.

I'm definitely not his favorite one.

- Please consider calling home every night. - Yes.

I know, I know. How many times have you said it?

Hurry up and leave.

Go back inside quickly, goodbye.

[Episode 16] [A new beginning]

I, Brother Rui, am back!

I... back!

No, it's 'I'm back'.

Nan Xi.

This... What is the purpose of language communication?

- What is it? - To communicate.

Then, what is the point of communication?

What is it?

To understand what we express to each other

and to avoid misunderstandings, right?

That's right.

So when I said "I back", did you understand what I said?

- I understood. - Then "I back."

"I am back", "am back".

When I express these, does it make any difference?

There seems to be no difference.

Well, that's it then!

The grammar is wrong.

Grammar is only important for the exam.

But we are now at the start of the year.

Not sitting for an exam.

- But if we're talking about English exam... - Nan Xi.

It's the first day of school. Relax.

Binhai University, I coming.

It's "I'm coming".

I ran over as soon as I received your call.

Why haven't you checked in?

I'm done, but Nan Xi hasn't yet.

What is Chubby Cheng doing?

He told us to wait here so he'll help us with luggage?

We waited the whole day, but he's nowhere to be seen.

He's already gone missing and escaped on the first day of school?

He probably hasn't finished training.

But their basketball club is also insane enough.

Morning exercise on the first day of school.

It even ruined our first train traveling plan coming here.

I even bought playing cards!

What a waste! You even have to change your booking.

- I'm furious! - It's okay.

Isn't he scared of taking the night train alone?

I kept him company.

Moreover, we have plenty of time to travel together.

- Just keep the cards first, okay? - Okay then.

Are you busy later?

No. Just waiting for Cheng Erluo to meet up with us now.

Then you keep Nan Xi company here.

I need to get him registered. It's so crowded there.

- Even I feel confused just looking at it. - It'll be fine.

Let's go together.

Listen to me, stay here obediently.

I'll be right back. Be good.

Alright.

Here, give him some information.

- Next. Student. That student. - I'm sorry.

Hello, what is your name? I'm helping a friend.

It's Nan Xi.

Nan Xi?

Are you Nan Xi?

The double first-place Nan Xi from our professional culture class.

- No, no no. -That's not right, Nan Xi?

It's a guy, why is this a girl?

No, no. I'm his friend and I am helping him out.

Then, what is your relationship with Nan Xi?

Didn't I say it? We're friends.

Just leave Nan Xi's affairs to me in the future.

Leave everything to you?

Yes, what I mean is that I'll help him.

Sure, no problem, I understand.

Then, here is the information.

Please help him keep it.

No, wait. Teacher...

It's okay, we've been through it.

I understand. Okay.

Next.

Sure enough, university is different from high school.

But how can these people be so into gossip?

It's just as the saying goes

from the end of puppy love to marriage,

it's something that happens over high school summer vacation.

Sinister people.

I need to bring Nan Xi to take photos after lunch.

And stick the photos here after taking them.

Then our Nan Xi will be the best looking boy on this campus.

Okay everyone!

The one standing next to me

has already been popular in our school forum during the art exam.

The prettiest freshman Zhao Yishu.

And the one next to her

is the first place in our school's architectural professional culture,

Nan Xi!

This is so unexpected.

These two are the talented and the beauty. A match made in heaven!

- Don't talk nonsense. - What? Don't talk nonsense, okay?

Then can I please ask both of you what is your relationship?

- Look at this camera. - What is the matter? What are you doing?

Stop shooting.

This student. Do you know, what are you doing in broad daylight?

You are infringing on a reporter's independent interview right. Do you know that?

This student, you are violating the privacy of the interviewee.

You secretly take pictures, distort facts and spread rumors.

What kind of reporter are you? Go away!

Panghu look! She deleted all the videos!

I will definitely give you a decent funeral.

Next time before you take someone's picture please inform them first, get it?

Everyone please comment. It took me the whole morning to shoot.

- She deleted it and asked us to leave. - That's right.

Why did you drop my oil cake?

You give it back, you compensate!

Please control yourself. Which college are you from? So barbaric.

- None of your business. - Freshmen.

Welcome everyone to Binhai University.

Beautiful Shu, are you alright?

This person... Who is this person?

You don't even know him? This is Senior Sibo.

I think you guys owe them an apology.

But senior, we are from the journalism team.

You are from the journalism team?

We are...

I remember the reporters from Binhai University press team,

when taking portrait photos

they always get consent of the party involved.

If you guys are interested in joining them

shouldn't you guys first understand their rules and regulations?

Just apologise.

Sorry.

Well, I shouldn't have started shooting without your consent.

- And? - What else?

Also, they are a couple.

We shouldn't have jumped to conclusions

and promote Yishu as Nan Xi's girlfriend.

Yishu and Nan Xi?

This student, are you here to be funny?

That's it.

Everyone is from the School of Architecture.

And will meet all the time in the future.

Let bygones be bygones.

Just let it go.

Why did the School of Architecture recruit such people?

Which department are you from then?

- I-- - This is my boss.

Chenghua Middle School First Lady, Xia Rui, Brother Rui.

Next time if you see her around call her 'Brother Rui'.

There's nothing to lose.

So, is it sister or brother?

Enough! Everyone go back.

There's enough to keep you busy at the beginning of the school year.

Just leave.

Xia Rui. Don't blame them.

I'm fine.

But when I face you guys I can't say three words.

This is so not me.

- Please remember. You are the most unique one. - Exactly.

Why are you more sensitive after attending university?

It's okay.

Yeah, why did I suddenly become sensitive?

- It's okay, university is wonderful. - Exactly. Ignore them.

Quick, let me introduce you.

This is a Class Four Senior, Lu Sibo, Senior Sibo.

From the same architecture department as Nan Xi

and the captain of our basketball team.

I am stepping down this year.

Nice to meet you in the final year of university.

Why does this senior look so familiar?

- Where... - Where did I see him?

We should have met during your Art Exam.

Yes. During Art Exam at the school gate, right?

Nice to see you... you guys again.

Okay. I have something else. Let me deal with it first.

Nan Xi. I've seen what you put in as your entrance exam artwork.

I really admire your talent.

If you need anything at our department next time, find me anytime.

I'll take my leave now.

- Goodbye, senior. - See you.

Haven't you been to the dorm yet?

There hasn't been enough time with the situation just now.

I say I don't know how it is like in the girl's dormitory

but in our male dormitory the scent of man is a bit strong.

I'm ready.

How strong? H-how strong is it?

Nan Xi, I don't know if he gets used to it.

Beautiful Shu. This is the letter from our dormitory.

Later just put the box back into the dormitory with Erluo, okay?

I have to accompany Nan Xi to see his dormitory

- I'm so worried. - It's okay I can do it myself.

- Be obedient, I'll accompany you today. Put on your bag. - It'll be fine.

Be obedient. Quick.

Put on your bag, let's go. Bye.

- Bye Bye. - Bye Bye.

- Give me. - I'll take it.

Are you listening to me?

Let's go, I'll take it.

Binhai University.

Hello student!

This is so nice.

I didn't expect to meet the famous guy from your department the first day of school.

But what the reporter said was right.

You are the new male idol. He's the senior idol.

If this Senior Lu looks after you in college in the future I can rest assured.

You don't realise but all the girls looked at me when I shouted your name.

The true radiance of our Little Wood.

It is impossible to flinch from you.

Oh.

Other than 'Oh' and 'Ohm',

can you say something else?

Yes.

- You're making me angry on purpose, right? - Oh.

- You still said that. - Em.

- You're asking for it, right? - Oh.

I realised once you entered university

your true colours are showing.

You better not pick up bad habits from others, alright?

Will it have a bad influence?

Bike, bike, bike.

Quick.

Look at how wonderful university life is.

I must give up on my old mentality.

I need to become an ambitious and progressive university student.

What else can you improve on?

I wish to improve this.

- You've learned bad too. - I haven't.

Look at this university. There are all kinds of people here.

No one will pay attention to you all the time.

You need to learn how to relax, okay?

Relax.

Okay.

I saw some anime club over there just now.

And also basketball club.

And also there is this Silence Club or something.

Silence club. It really suits you.

- Tailored for you. - Don't even think about it. I will not go.

- Definitely not. - Of course I know you won't go.

I'm just thinking about how wonderful university life is.

Without Lao Hu's and Director Shao's control.

I can freely do anything I want.

I need to cherish these four years that were so hard to win.

Is this the same university life we imagined?

The university life I imagined?

It's... you.

There's you.

And then?

Nothing else.

- That's it? - That's it.

Okay.

I know you treat me the best.

Don't worry. As long as I'm here I will make sure your university life is

even better, more wonderful, a thousand times more beautiful.

Ten thousand times more, a billion times. Ten billion times.

One hundred billion times. How about it?

I believe that.

But isn't our department a bit too far away from here?

Our canteen seems to be quite close.

How about taking a walk here every time after meal?

We can also ride bicycles just like them.

We can ride everyday.

- Really? - Yes.

I can't wait.

- I'm so happy! Are you happy? - Yes.

Do you want to go to university quickly?

We are already in university.

Oh that's right.

Step aside.

Step aside, step aside, step aside.

Step aside, step aside.

Step aside.

Step aside, please step aside.

Faster, kill it.

Faster kill it.

- Left. - Fast, fast, faster!

Faster! Step aside!

Quick quick! Here, step aside!

Step aside! What are you doing?

Don't move.

Don't move!

Nan Xi?

Excuse us.

No way.

Absolutely not.

No, no, no.

Think about what your two roommates are.

A paparazzi with no bottom line. And another one,

wants to have a funeral for his oil cake that fell on the floor. Is he Lin Daiyu? (TN: Book character that from Dream of Red Chambers and is quite frail.)

No, no way.

Also please think about the living environment.

I feel like I'll pass out if I take in two more breaths.

No, no, really no.

Yes. Cannot live there.

A quadruple room with only two in there.

The other two beds are empty, what does that mean?

It means that the other two got scared away by them too.

Your major is so strong.

Why are all the recruited students so weird?

Weird major.

You... you are a genius. You're a genius, okay?

You're different to them.

What about this?

I'll move in to stay with you.

My goodness, you really dare think about all sorts of things.

You just went viral today and you are moving into the girls dormitory tomorrow.

You're like a monk who lives in an all girls' cave.

No, no, no, absolutely not.

Give me Uncle Wang's phone number.

Your mom told me

if there are any problems

to just find Uncle Wang.

Hello, Uncle Wang?

Hi.

- Good morning Uncle Wang. - Good morning.

Let me take you guys for house viewing.

Okay.

Beautiful Shu, you can never imagine

that Papparazzi and Oil Cake shares the same room as Nan Xi.

I won't stand and watch Nan Xi jump into this fire pit.

We're out looking for houses now.

What? Living together?

- Cheng Erluo! Who asked you to eavesdrop? - Is it not living together?

We're not living together!

I'll get back at you for this.

Well, regarding the house, Sister Ren has already informed me.

Don't worry. I'll try my best to satisfy you.

Uncle Wang has some houses.

The main issue is the distance, right?

I think it's within 2 kilometers.

- It can't be too far from school. - Yes, yes.

How big do you want the house to be?

Is it a two bedroom? Or, the two of you in a bedroom?

Two bedroom.

Is Xia Rui moving in?

Because one room can be a bedroom.

The other can be a studio. So, at least two bedrooms.

So it's a studio.

So, this two bedroom house...

do you want luxurious or exquisite design?

No, Uncle Wang. Nan Xi is living by himself, I'm staying at school.

I'm living by myself?

- You're not moving in? - No, I'm not.

That's true.

For a girl to stay off campus it's not too safe, right?

I don't want to live by myself.

There's a full set of mahogany furniture inside this house.

Walk-in closet, an open kitchen,

overlooking the city night view, close view of community garden.

Most importantly, the landlord is abroad.

This house is fully authorised by me.

And it's cheap.

Doesn't need 100,000 or 80,000.

13,000 monthly.

All expenses including utility bills,

management fees and gas bill, everything is included.

The lowest price in the whole community.

3 months rent in advance with 1 month deposit, 49,998.

Just come with a bag.

This is your house tonight, come.

Wait a minute.

Fift... fifty thousand?

Yes.

Is it expensive?

That's okay. Tell me a figure so I have an idea.

30,000? That's easy.

Three... thousand.

What?

Three... Three thousand?

Is there a problem with 30,000 or 3,000?

No, there's not. Come here.

This is the only bungalow area left in the central city area.

As the saying goes keep your feet on the ground and be at ease by living in a bungalow.

Three by two square meters.

There's no other in all of Binhai.

Only 7 minutes walk away from Binhai University.

No road crossing, no traffic light.

Surrounded mainly by elderly people.

All that is needed are peace, safety and security.

Rent is 3500 monthly. Slightly over budget, but definitely great value for money.

It is a bit old but,

the interior design should be fine. [Demolish]

This...This government planning should be supported.

Don't worry. Let's have a look at the next one.

Three elements of renting cheap, stable and strategic location.

The next one has all of those.

The only minor shortcoming

[Shared kitchen and bathroom]

It's just right above here

eighth floor.

This is the breath of life.

I have to say this is what your generation lacks.

This small community breaks the unfamiliarity between neighbours.

And allows us to experience deeply the warmth of humanity.

How is it? Not bad, right?

Uncle Wang.

Don't go.

Actually, a new era, new housing,

it requires a new pursuit.

Previously, I was too stubbornly conservative.

Along the way, I got inspired.

I think the next one should suit you.

But Uncle Wang this looks like an industrial area.

That's right. This is an industrial area.

Come on.

Let's take a look first. Maybe there's an unexpected reward.

Okay then. If it doesn't work, go to a hotel tonight.

[Lanyan Design]

Come on.

This is the last one after viewing so many houses.

This used to be a design company.

The boss is doing well now.

The house has just been vacant recently.

This house is pretty well structured.

Double storey.

Upstairs could be made into a bedroom.

Bottom level could be a leisure area.

Nan Xi is involved in architecture.

You should like this house.

Nan Xi.

This can be your studio.

- Yes. - Right?

Here we can put your coffee machine.

- Do you like it? - Yes.

- You? - Yes.

It's really suitable for young people.

How is it? Are you satisfied?

- Are you satisfied? - Yes.

We'll confirm if you're satisfied.

I'll take it.

Here.

Nan Xi, please sign here.

I'll handle the rest.

♫ I watch the descending dragonflies from afar ♫

♫ The sunlight expands the tree's shadow as light passes the lattices of the window ♫

♫ The fragrance of peppermint adds some sweetness ♫

♫ Signing a promise ♫

♫ I'm excited for the reflection of your eyes ♫

♫ As the dandelions spread past the meteor shower ♫

♫ Handwritten poetry of you ♫

♫ Describes my dream ♫

♫ It's a mystical reaction of your smile coloring my transparency ♫

♫ The secret of the tree hole lives the depths of my heart, hiding good news ♫

♫ It's hard for me to resist your shyness ♫

♫ Just let me slowly become mesmerized ♫

♫ Coming into contact with this mystical reaction is so incredible ♫

♫ Catching my happiness with the same kind of mutual connection ♫

♫ I want your caring attention. I'll never be able to separate from you again ♫

♫ When I found out it was your world

♫ Connecting into my landscape ♫

♫ My expectation is being reflected in your eyes ♫

Who...Who is calling at this time?

What is it Chubby Cheng?

Brother Rui, did you step on a bomb?

What 's the matter? Spill it.

Do you want a midnight snack?

Celebrate the official start of our university life.

Beautiful Shu and I discovered a skewers shop.

The rating is five stars.

Send me the address.

Chubby Cheng and Beautiful Shu want to eat skewers.

Do you want to go?

Let's go.

It's already past six o'clock. I'm hungry.

Okay, okay, let's go, let's go.

Let's go and eat.

Come on.

What are you doing? Let's go.

Oh no! No, God Nan, God Nan.

You eat skewers this way?

There's no soul to it.

Only you have a soul. How much is a pound of soul?

It's definitely not as expensive as lamb skewers.

We're already in university.

Why is the way you mess with me still so old fashioned?

Aren't we worried that you're not used to leaving Chenghua?

I'm just helping you, alright?

Our Nan Xi can eat however he wants.

Just ignore him.

God Nan! Wait, no.

The naggy fat and thin duo from today

are really from your dorm?

Why would I lie to you?

It's really easy to meet your enemies.

Absolutely no way!

Our Nan Xi cannot live with those two people.

How did the house viewing go?

It's done.

So fast?

The villa area on the side?

An exquisitely designed big house?

Our Nan Xi doesn't like big houses.

He wants an empty house and remodel it himself.

I'm really curious. What kind of house caught Nan Xi's attention?

A house that can catch God Nan attention

must be very unique and one of a kind.

It has to be the only one of its kind in the world.

God Nan, I have a small unreasonable request.

- In your big house, can we— - No.

Can you let me finish it first?

Leave me with a small, tiny little corner, will you?

About this you have to ask Xia Rui.

What do you want?

As far as I know in Binhai University,

I am definitely a dark horse on the school popularity list.

I need to have a hiding spot.

Just in case those young admirers come after me

I need to have a spot so I can run to and hide, right?

I can even keep you company.

The admirers...

The...

Both of you. Seriously.

Okay, okay, okay.

We'll look at your performance and decide then, okay?

I have a few more words.

Although we're already in university we must not disband our Cheng Yi Nan Xia group.

And now the time has come for the two of you to contribute to the group.

I hereby announce from tomorrow onwards

for the sake of our Nan Xi's living environment for the next four years,

and for the sake of our interesting university life ahead

both of you have to start helping, okay?

The event is officially launched.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

[Encourage all to learn new things]

Nan Xi. I'm already in class.

Are you there yet?

Let me tell you. Compared with your school

Our junior school building is really too plain.

Little Wood, have you seen your classmates yet?

How do you feel? Are they friendly?

The Paparazzi and Oil Cake duo just keep at a distance if you don't like them.

I've seen my schedule, I finish earlier than you.

I'll come pick you up once I am finished.

I've already told Beautiful Shu and Chubby Cheng.

We'll see you there at noon.

Nan Xi, it's the first day of university. Try your best!

Try your best!

♫ Like a love song echoing ♫

♫ In the bottom of the heart ♫

Okay.

♫ Like dazzling fireworks ♫

Just a two word reply?

My note is so long and full of enthusiasm.

That's all he has to say?

This person is cold.

Xia Rui, the teacher is here, get in quick.

Okay, okay.

I'll let you off this time.

Nan Xi, quick! I've saved you a spot.

This spot is good. Sit here.

♫ So deep in my memory is our mutual connection ♫

What should we do？

Do you think Nan Xi is holding a grudge?

I just think you were too enthusiastic just now.

He's probably not used to it.

[Architecture Department]

I am called Gu Siming.

For the next four years,

I am your main lecturer.

I am in charge of everything.

Okay, okay, okay.

There's still one classmate who has not met everyone yet.

Up next, I will officially introduce him to everyone.

Could the person Professor Gu said be the mysterious fourth person in our dorm?

Is it possible...? [Architecture Department]

Come. Introduce yourself to everyone.

Okay.

Gao Ting.

Thank you.

Find a place to sit down.

I think this Gao Ting

doesn't seem good to get along with.

I really wonder what kind of weird dorm mates we have.

One is first place, one is second place.

How can we deal with two icy cold people in one room?

What are you talking about?

I've investigated Gao Ting.

He is a local from Binhai.

His parents both work in our school.

He won't live in the dormitories.

I am Gao Ting.

Nan Xi.
