[Forever and Ever]

[Episode 13]

Xiaoyu bought herself a furnished apartment,

she’s going to move out at the end of this month.

If you come back,

I’ll sort out her room

and turn it into a study.

The bedroom remains as it was.

We just finished decorating that house,

I suggest we move in

after a years’ airing.

It’s okay for day-to-day things, but not for sleeping,

that would be bad for your health.

It’s fine, I’ve got a ready-made house

for you to live in.

Hello, are you still there?

I’m here.

Then why didn’t you say anything?

I was just

overwhelmed all of a sudden.

What did I say?

You were talking about

us moving in together.

Shouldn’t we talk about that?

It’s not that we shouldn’t.

I was just picturing it.

Don’t take what I said

the wrong way.

What I meant was

I was picturing

our life together, in the same home.

I didn’t take it the wrong way,

no need to explain yourself.

Next week, I will attend

an International Space conference.

If you are interested,

you can come in advance

and we can go back to Shanghai together

once the conference is over.

You finished your job there?

Completely.

Wait, let me check my visa

and my work schedule.

My Schengen visa is still valid.

Altogether with the two weekend days,

that makes four days off.

As long as I can make it to Shanghai during the day.

Okay, I got it.

I will book the ticket for you later.

Good night, over there in Germany.

Good night.

Zhousheng Chen, open the door.

Zhousheng Chen.

What’s going on?

Here, here, here.

Move, move.

Do me a favor.

She’s drunk.

Zhousheng Chen.

I don’t know which hotel

her husband’s staying at.

So I had to send her here.

This is...

She’s married.

It’s not appropriate to send her to a hotel.

If it’s not okay to send her

to a hotel

why would you take her to my place?

Then tell me what should I do?

You’re not going to throw her on the streets, are you?

What if she ran into some horrible person?

All right, all right, all right.

You may leave her here.

But you need to stay here as well.

Got it.

Move her into this room.

Easy, easy.

Frank.

Why did you take her into my room?

Thank you.

If you had a quarrel with Wenchuan

and don’t want him to come pick you up,

I can call someone else

to take you back at dawn.

No need for that.

I am more familiar with Bremen than you.

Okay.

I have always wanted to apologize

for your engagement.

I didn’t expect that accident

would ruin your plan.

It’s okay.

I am about to divorce Zhou Wenchuan.

We both acted on impulse

and none of us thought it through,

which turned into a whole drama.

I am afraid my parents won’t stand for this,

not to mention your mother,

who is so sensitive about her reputation.

We decided to sign an agreement first,

and after a year,

we will make it public with an excuse.

Why would you rush into marriage?

I didn’t rush into it.

I was just doing what I wanted,

when I wanted it.

I could understand if you did this

in order to go home

and take back what’s yours from your second uncle.

But this reason you just said,

I don’t buy it.

I don’t like to talk with others

about my private affairs.

The sun has yet to rise,

you can go back to sleep.

In a while,

when Frank gets up,

I’ll ask him to get your breakfast.

You have always

been very careful about marriage,

thinking it over a lot.

You also said

you didn’t have any expectations for marriage.

If you ever get married,

you get married for your family.

What a surprise it was, this time.

Maybe this is the difference

between business and pleasure.

Anything else?

If not,

I will go back to work.

Come and join us.

No, thanks.

Thank you for bringing me here.

You’re welcome.

I have to go now.

Chen.

When did you arrive?

I have been waiting for 23 minutes.

I am famished

after staying outside for too long.

Would you mind me joining you

for breakfast?

Not at all.

You haven’t seen Chen for a long time,

why not stay for breakfast?

You guys enjoy.

I have an appointment with my supervisor.

I will get a cab for you.

No, it’s okay.

I can’t believe you are just flying off.

Even though you are already

legitimately husband and wife.

You have to apply some pressure

between you and him.

You are simply being too soft with him.

How am I being soft?

When my mother used to take her team for competitions,

as long as my father was available,

he would follow her to have fun together.

That way, they saved on hotel money while being able to travel around.

How long have your mom and dad been together?

They have already been married so long

they could tell what’s on each other’s mind

at a glance.

You guys are different.

You just got married and

barely know each other.

At this moment,

you could use

some cleverly applied pressure..

What kind of pressure?

If only I had a boyfriend,

so that

I could demonstrate that for you every day.

For example, this time.

You could’ve said.

“I’m busy, I haven’t got time.”

And he would start to wonder

about what’s going on in your head.

Did he make you feel left out

so that you refused to go and used an excuse?

Once he starts to self-reflect,

we got him.

He feels more anxious and nervous than you.

That means he is like losing

the initiative in your relationship.

Whoever takes the initiative in a relationship

gains the upper hand.

Xiaoyu.

I met him when I was 26.

If I’m lucky enough

to live to 80,

I have only got 54 years left,

less than 20,000 days.

You know he is a researcher.

It will be like this when he is on a business trip,

being away for several months.

Maybe the time we really spend living together

is less than 10,000 days.

Minus the time

I would be busy, overworking

and off on business trips myself.

So the days we will get to spend together

are even fewer than that.

That’s why,

within the limited amount of time I have left to spend with him.

I don’t have any time

to think about using such tricks or applying pressure.

I need to seize every single minute

to be with him.

Do you understand?

All right, all right.

Forget it, forget what I said.

Don’t worry, there won’t be any delay.

I have calculated the time for you.

Great, I trust you.

You are only gonna be there for a few days,

why would you take so many books?

They are not books,

just some materials I printed

for me to read on the journey.

Hello, Sir.

Hi.

Can you get me

a pair of lady’s slippers later?

Are we expecting any guests?

Do I need to prepare a guest room?

No need for that.

My wife is coming here.

Then I will give the bathroom

a good clean later

and light up some aromatic incense.

Which type does your wife prefer?

I am not sure about that.

Can you choose one for me

that’s least possible to go wrong?

Will do.

Right,

she particularly loves to go to the temple,

so try to find some incense with a similar fragrance.

Okay, got it.

Also,

get me some extra pillows

that are different

in softness and thickness.

I don’t know what type

would she prefer to sleep with.

Will do.

Thank you.

Distance makes the heart grow fonder.

Like I expected.

Stop striking a pose.

Let’s walk.

Well, you are the one who’s in a hurry,

not me.

So says you, she’s my wife,

not your wife.

Hurry up.

Let’s go

to pick up Mr. Zhousheng’s wife.

[For other directions, please take the elevator to the Service Center]

When did you arrive?

Well, about half an hour ago.

♫Is there a good time♫

♫for the loved ones to hug each other♫

While I was in Xi’an,

♫When all my hopes are dashed♫

I also saw a girl.

Despite only getting a glimpse,

♫How can I remain calm♫

her face is almost etched

in my mind

in a way I can never forget.

♫What if my destine never fooled me♫

If I happened to see her again,

maybe I will be like you,

and propose without hesitation.

♫ What if the time was more tolerant ♫

I hope you can see each other again.

♫ Will the relationship not be ♫

♫ thrown away by anybody ♫

[For other directions, please take the elevator to the Service Center]

♫ Where do I belong without having you ♫

♫ Who would I still care after saying taking care ♫

This is my wife, Shi Yi.

This is my college classmate,

and also my old friend,

♫ The courage we pluck up is now drifting away in the wind ♫

Mei Xing, courtesy name, Rugu.

Mei Rugu.

Weathered willow and withered lotus flower, only the plum remains the same.

That’s a good interpretation.

Nice to meet you, Mr. Mei.

Nice to meet you, Miss Shi Yi.

Let’s go.

I am done.

Enjoy.

Why are you staring at me like that?

-Hi.
-Hi.

You seem to have lost some weight.

Do I?

Your face is slimmer

than I recall.

Have you been eating properly?

I’ve been staying organized

and eaten my meals regularly.

I don’t think I’ve gotten slimmer.

If I were you,

I would answer,

I missed you so much that I gradually lost some weight.

All right, I got it.

If the same thing

happened next time,

I would say,

I missed you so much

that I gradually lost some weight.

Here,

they’ve got room service,

24/7.

While I am not around,

if you need anything,

you can call reception.

You’ve been living in this place for quite some time?

Yeah.

I have been living in this place for ages.

Do you live here alone?

How’s that possible?

He can’t resist the loneliness.

He lives with someone else.

Did you really live with other people?

Yeah.

You see.

He even admitted that himself?

In the past,

I used to think a lot about

work stuff at night,

all of a sudden.

That requires talking and analyzing with other people.

That’s why

I shared the apartment

with one of my colleagues before.

He just moved out.

He’s a guy.

You guys don’t waste a minute when it comes to your work.

I will put your luggage

in the room.

Okay.

Well.

A newly married couple who have reunited after a long separation.

You must loathe me, the lawyer

getting in your way.

But rest assured,

I know what I should do.

I will leave the moment I finish my business.

Please have a seat.

It’s kind of scary to face a lawyer

right off the plane.

It’s not me who scares you.

The content of the agreement does.

[Supplemental Agreement for Distribution of Property Signature]

[Signature]

This is the supplementary agreement

for the property settlement agreement

between you and him.

It is acting as

a supplement to your prenuptial agreement

after you got married.

He inherited all his father’s

personal assets

and 90% of the Zhou family’s property.

It took us two months

to almost finish the take-over.

Here

are the movable properties and immovable properties

Zhousheng Chen changed their owner’s name to you

after you got married.

Did his father give him

all his assets?

What about Wenxing and Wenchuan?

I don’t know.

Even if I did, I couldn’t tell you either.

As a lawyer, I have my professional integrity.

You don’t have to manage these.

What we are going to sign today are necessary documents.

This is just following the procedure.

This is in triplicate.

It will be enough for you to read one.

I have marked the pages

where your need to sign your names

[Signature]

with stickers,

in case you miss any.

Thank you.

I will sign these and hand them to you before I leave.

Is that too late?

The reason why I laughed is that

you and him are so alike.

You try to predict the next step

for whatever you do.

I haven’t asked you when you could get it done,

yet you already told me.

I like to work with people who are reliable

and organized.

Of course, I need to be that myself.

If my partners

were like you,

that would save me a lot of trouble.

Take your time.

Are you not curious about his courtesy name?

What is it?

Changfeng.

Changfeng?

The waves rise as the high wind comes,

like the lonely land around a high mountain.

Raging waves pounding the banks,

turning and striking at each sharp turn.

Sure enough you can say that.

In Xi’an...

I mean the couple of days when you were in Xi’an,

I was there too.

But I didn’t get to see you.

I did hear him talking about you.

What did he say?

He said there was a very romantic story

about how you two met.

It was actually pretty awkward.

Help me get the message to him

that I won’t be waiting for him.

Okay.

Here, thanks.

It was nice meeting you.

Likewise.

I am his best friend.

If you have any difficulty

in the future,

you can always come to me.

Okay.

-Bye.
-See you.

OCD.

I didn’t go interrupt you

as I saw you being very focused.

Here.

Wedding ring?

Shi Yi.

I need to tell you

one thing.

I took the ring off

when I was washing my hand a couple of days ago.

But something suddenly happened after I had washed my hand,

so I went out.

By the time I came back,

the ring was gone.

That’s why just now

the ring was sent here.

Not the previous one.

By which you mean,

the first one got lost,

and this is already the second one.

Yeah.

Stupid.

If you didn’t tell me that,

I would never have known.

Two months of not seeing each other,

you are still

the researcher who is honest and reliable.

It seems that, ever since I could remember,

this is the first time

I’ve been called a stupid.

So arrogant.

What do you think?

Do you want to go out for a meal?

Great, we could spend some time together as well.

What do you want to eat?

Any place you’re familiar with.

Somewhere I’m familiar with?

It seems that apart from the apartment

and the laboratory,

I am not familiar with anything here.

I have been used to that kind of routine,

commuting between the apartment and the laboratory.

Then we have no choice,

I have to show you around.

Have you been here?

No, but I’ve done my homework.

Let’s go.

I have seen pictures of this place

on the internet.

The documents Mei Xing wanted me to sign

mentioned your

Ten Years of Capital Introduction Plan.

Are you interested?

My father studied economics.

I often heard him talk about it.

In fact, those ten years

are only phase one.

At present, every country

is intensifying their efforts in scientific research

to speed up digitalization

and intellectualization.

That’s why we can never stop.

We must pick up our pace

so as to seize the commanding heights

of global manufacturing.

Nevertheless, these efforts require capital.

A constant flow of capital.

Large enterprises are fine,

while small and medium enterprises,

like start-ups,

might find themselves struggling.

That’s why I want to help them.

This kind of investment,

especially in the high-tech field.

It’s hard to expect short-term return.

Will your mother and the seniors at home

understand?

The path to being understood

is pretty hard indeed.

You have my support from now on.

Thank you.

What kind of flowers do you like?

Me?

I want to give you some flowers.

You want to give me flowers?

I forgot that you are allergic to pollen.

Wait a sec.

This is for you.

Do you like it?

Yeah.

Good afternoon, Professor Zhousheng.

Do you know him?

This is only three minutes

away from the institute.

Then let’s go somewhere else.

Why?

Because I am not mentally prepared

to see your colleagues.

Besides, I just got off a long flight.

And I don’t look good.

You don’t?

Just go.

Are you taking a shower just to go out?

I’m not.

I spent the whole night in the laboratory

and felt kind of dirty.

I just want to take a shower and get changed.

We are going to stay together tonight.

♫ Time cannot steal memory ♫

♫ Try my best ♫

♫ To locate your trace ♫

♫ Spring flowers and autumn moon ♫

♫ I put them deep down in my heart ♫

♫ To write you a song and a poem ♫

Hello, it’s me.

♫ With tenderness and caution ♫

Wait till I get there.

♫ To rewrite the ending of what happened in our preexistence ♫

You gotta take a shower later.

I will just clean up real quick.

♫ And resume our story ♫

It’s okay.

Are you going out?

♫ You show up in my dream, ♫

There’s something going on in the lab.

I need to attend a

teleconference which will take a long time.

♫ Gradually getting clearer ♫

Are you coming home tonight?

I absolutely will.

However, it’s going to be late as usual.

Wait.

Your hair is too wet.

You can leave after it’s dried.

Did you bring it here?

I guessed you wouldn’t have it, so I took one with me.

I really don’t.

I’ll blow-dry my hair then.

There’s steak, some vegetables

and bread in the fridge.

If you don’t like eating any of them.

Call room service.

I know, I’m not a child.

I saw where the restaurant was

when we were

on our way back.

I gotta go.

Take care.

Okay.

Zhousheng Chen.

I heard a complaint about your

embezzlement of the project funds.

This...

What a joke.

There’s nothing wrong with the previous agreement, right?

The work has been made public,

and we also applied for the patent.

There’s no problem with it.

As for the funds,

we will find out by looking into it.

Shall we go in and talk about it?

Not today.

My wife is here.

Your wife is here?

She just took

dozens of hours of flights to come here

and must be tired.

She must be sleeping now.

Let’s make it another day,

and not disturb her.

Good, I will invite you

and your wife for dinner someday,

to show my hospitality.

Okay.

Bye.

Bye.

What time is it?

5:47.

Come to bed.

The sofa is uncomfortable.

I just got back from the laboratory.

My clothes are dirty.

I will go take a shower

and get changed.

I don’t mind.

Come up here.

Is it really so hard for you to sleep with your wife

on the same bed?

It’s not hard.

I was afraid of waking you.

I am already awake.

Are you going to keep sleeping?

Yeah.

I wasn’t sleeping well

before you came back.

Now my head feels dizzy

and I want to keep sleeping.

You go do thatt.

Were you going to do something

after I sent you the flowers?

I have always been

terrible with words.

Yet you always surprise me.

And there’s so many surprises

that I am speechless.

Then how are you gonna repay me?

Repay?

How do you want me to repay you?

Help me fall asleep.

How would you fall sleep more easily

normally?

Listen to music, or poems.

I will fall asleep

after listening to them for a while.

When I was young,

in order to help me memorize poems,

my mother used to read them for me every night before sleep

and I got used to it.

Then I will read some poems.

Can I choose which poem?

You don’t have to recite the whole poem, just one or two lines.

Sure.

Bai Juyi.

I drank too much last night,

and I drank throughout the night.

I ate too much for breakfast,

and I fell asleep after I eating full to bursting.

Stop kidding around, I’m too sleepy.

I’m just responding to your request

to recite some poems.

You did it on purpose,

choosing these lines.

Things like drinking too much last night

and being full to bursting today,

just to make me laugh.

All right, I will try to behave.

The white porcelain cup is crystal clear.

The fire is blazing inside the stove.

The tea leaves give off the scent of alcohol,

and the water is now bubbling.

When I poured the tea into the cup, it looked fabulous.

After I drank it, the fragrance still lingered.

That’s it?

One, two, three, four, five,

six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

Eleven.

♫ The day we met ♫

♫ Time froze ♫

♫ It’s your smiling eyes ♫

♫ That made the hustle and bustle of the world gone ♫

♫ Every moment ♫

♫ Drives away the weariness of the past ♫

♫ Love spreads ♫

♫ I’m glad you’re here ♫

♫ One more day with you ♫

♫ Love gets deeper ♫

♫ Making it a poem ♫

♫ Kissing through the long years ♫

♫ Wrapping love around my fingertips ♫

♫ Make a vow in silence ♫

♫ Embrace again ♫

♫ A few forever ♫

♫ Nothing will change ♫

♫ With the same warm sunny day ♫

♫ Give you my true love ♫

♫ Thank you for being there ♫

♫ One more day with you ♫

♫ Love gets deeper ♫

♫ Making it a poem ♫

♫ Kissing through the long years ♫

♫ Wrapping love around my fingertips ♫

♫ Make a vow in silence ♫

♫ Embrace again ♫

♫ A few forever ♫

♫ Nothing will change ♫

♫ With the same warm sunny day ♫

♫ Give you my true love ♫

♫ Believe you can feel the same ♫

♫ Maybe it’s the snow falling without a sound ♫

♫ Maybe it’s the flower in the mirror without a trace ♫

♫ I’ve seen all the scenes of the passing years ♫

Even the most beautiful face

♫ They’re not as good as you, not as good as you ♫

will have to age.

You are the best in my mind.

♫ I look at a ripple ♫

I can see the bones of beauty inside you.

♫ It’s like there’s no wind and no sunshine ♫

♫ The more silent my love becomes ♫

Where?

♫ The more my heart turns to rain ♫

In here.

♫ There is grace in your eyebrows ♫

People’s faces are shaped by their hearts.

If they are kind at heart, they look kind in their face.

♫ I’ll spend my whole life looking for it ♫

One has to have dignity

before having the bones of beauty.

♫ Don’t blame me for the sporadic sweet talk ♫

♫ I wake up from my dreams and I’m even colder ♫

I realize I am totally dwarfed by you

in terms of mastering the art of language.

♫ My heart that can’t stand being away from love ♫

♫ Hides nothing from you ♫

Do you still remember the composition Shanglin Fu?

♫ The scene I look down for ♫

The first time we met,

♫ Gets clear after saying goodbye ♫

I could think of

♫ Every glimpse means missing you ♫

no better line than

♫ Even if to be a stranger to you ♫

“Her beauty is breathtaking and charming with only a touch of make-up”

to describe you.

I have got you a wedding gift.

What gift?

I see you love wearing shirts.

So, I bought some cuff-links.

When I was shopping,

I said I was buying these for my husband.

The clerk asked what kind of color do you like,

but I didn’t even know.

That’s why I didn’t specify

and then bought them in five different colors.

What color do you prefer?

I like them all.

Be serious.

If I have to choose one, then…

this one.

Shi Yi.

Thank you.

I bought some vegetables.

Are you having dinner at home today?

Last night’s meeting in the lab

still hasn’t finished.

I just took a few hours’ break just to come home

and see you,

in case you got worried.

I will go back to the meeting

in a minute.

It’s okay.

These last few days,

you must have had a lot of work to transfer.

What a pity.

I bought the Bundesliga tickets

and I was going to surprise you.

Do you love football?

I know nothing about it.

Xiaoyu is a die-hard fan.

She urged me to watch it

and asked me to give her some live coverage.

I will make you something

as fast as I can.

You go brush your teeth and wash your face.
