[To Ship Someone]

[Episode 11]

Ji Shu.

Here you are.

What's wrong?

I'm here to apologize.

You did it during the day.

But...

I know you didn't do it.

I don't even know if I did it.

How did you know?

If you were the one who had modified the novel,

it would've been the same from the beginning,

instead of being modified gradually.

Wait. What do you mean?

This is a pallet comparison Fu Xingxing made for me.

From the beginning,

the modified part took only a small portion.

Gradually, it became more and more.

That person was testing

or pretending that I was the one who plagiarized.

He was cautious at the beginning,

then he became bolder and bolder.

He obviously planned this for a long time and he was targeting you.

Could it be that I didn't change the novel because I traveled

but it was a coincidence?

Anyway,

this happened because of me.

I'll clarify it right away.

No need.

I'm also involved.

As the person involved,

I should clarify it.

Do not think that way.

Song Yanqi, remember.

Don't admit it if you didn't do it.

Otherwise,

you will regret it.

Ji Shu, I find that when you reject others,

you're not hesitant at all.

But it's a pity.

I was born to be clingy.

You can't get rid of me even if you want to.

Don't reject me so quickly.

Since this is my responsibility,

I'll take full responsibility.

How do you want to take responsibility?

Actually, I haven't decided.

What do you want to do?

I'll do my best to cooperate.

If you refuse, I'll take back my words.

Fu Xingxing will come to me tomorrow morning.

Then we'll discuss how to deal with it.

I'll be there in time.

Thank you.

Okay.

Okay.

I see.

I think

I have to admit one thing first.

I'm the one who wrote the fan fiction.

-What? -It's you?

Well, Ji.

So you knew it, right?

Then why did you look for the hacker?

Wait, what hacker?

The hacker who hacked into his computer

and changed his novel.

If it were you,

isn't that clear?

No wonder Shan Hang said

the IP address is near his house.

Don't you two live just across the street from each other?

What IP address?

So, the person who hacked into his computer

has an IP address that is near my house.

It's not you?

Then why is the content of your fan fiction

in his novel?

It's a coincidence.

That's easy now.

A world crisis has become

a domestic conflict.

Couples usually start with a quarrel, end in harmony.

How is that related?

This is just an internal misunderstanding.

I don't care if it's an internal misunderstanding or a domestic conflict.

Are you sure it wasn't Qi?

-I think... -Not her.

Really?

I think

her IQ is similar to yours.

How could she hack Ji's computer?

Lu Qiyu.

You can insult her,

but not me.

Your tacit understanding

is amazing.

Let's get down to business.

The boss called me just now

and asked Ji Shu to stay away from trouble for a while.

Okay, I agree.

No way.

If you stop updating,

isn't it to acknowledge it?

You didn't plagiarize.

You just need to clarify it.

Yes, Ji.

Let's make a clarification.

Qi. Come with me.

I want to talk to you.

Qi.

If you're not the fan fiction author,

I would ask him to clarify it immediately.

But this person is you.

I don't want you to get involved.

Why?

Do you know

what the netizens will think

if you step out to clarify it?

If they believe Ji Shu,

they would say

you made all this up to be famous.

All cyber violence will point at you.

Xingxing, this is all because of me.

Whether there are hackers or not,

it started with me.

I cannot stand by and remain silent

while he is unjustly accused.

But you'll lose your peaceful life.

At least,

you won't be able to surf the Internet for a long time.

It's just disconnection.

Just think of it as quitting Internet addiction.

I hope you can think it over.

Xingxing.

If everyone in the world

weighs the pros and cons before doing something,

that's too cold.

You know I'm not that kind of person.

Let's go.

Should I write the statement myself

or your company will prepare one for me?

Mr. Ji.

I'll make a statement to clarify this.

And I won't write fan fiction again.

After this,

Mr. Ji,

please continue to cooperate with our company.

Song Yanqi.

I allow you to come here,

but it doesn't mean I allow you to interfere.

I don't want

to get her involved.

If the solution is for me

to admit plagiarism,

I will admit it.

Anyway, before this happened,

I already planned to stop writing.

Stop writing?

Why?

Is it because of my fan fiction?

I won't write it anymore.

It's none of your business.

Mr. Ji.

Mr. Ji.

I'm your loyal fan.

I can feel the power from your writing.

I also hope I can yearn for life

and love,

instead of just admitting to fate.

Song Yanqi, remember.

Don't admit it if you didn't do it.

Otherwise, you'll regret it.

Ji Shu.

Ji Shu.

If it had nothing to do with me,

why would you stop writing?

After all,

you're just timid.

You're afraid no one will believe you.

But if you don't tell the truth,

how would others believe you?

How can you convince them to believe you?

Will anyone believe me if I tell them the truth?

Most people would believe

what they want to believe,

and listen to what they want to hear.

But the truth is in the hands of the minority.

Most people would rather believe in lies.

So what?

Are there few examples of doing more with less?

Trust me.

I will take full responsibility

for what I did.

[Sending a Weibo post]

I'm the fan fiction author of Brighter Than Stars:

[Song Yanqi]

Love in the Life of a Best Actor.

I solemnly declare that

as a big fan of Ji Shu,

I believe he didn't plagiarize my novel.

There must be something behind it.

I will cooperate with the website in the investigation

and restore the truth.

The results of the new novel of Ji Shu are not as good as before.

Many readers gave up on reading.

Now he's making it up.

I guess the views are going up again.

What a joke.

I've never seen a plagiarism victim

to clarify it so actively.

She is even on the side of the plagiarist?

I knew Ji Shu wouldn't plagiarize.

Is he trying to be famous?

She must be trying to make it up.

The upstairs.

Can you be reasonable?

You don't have to read it if you don't like it.

-Look. -Ji Shu said...

He didn't plagiarize.

-That's reality. -There must be a reason.

If I don't look, I wouldn't know what they said.

You're avoiding reality.

You're allowed to be a coward

and I'm not allowed to filter the garbage?

Hello?

Thanks, Bro.

You found the evidence?

Yes, I'll send it to you right away.

Okay.

Hello, we've found out the situation.

I'll send you the evidence right away.

Please issue a statement via the official account first,

declaring that a hacker hacked into the system

and changed the novel.

And Ji Shu didn't plagiarize.

By the way, remember to make a note

that it wasn't a directed work by the fan fiction author.

We'll put up evidence officially later.

I have to tell Qi.

Hey, Xingxing.

We've found the evidence.

I've informed the official Weibo account to issue a statement.

Take a look.

Okay, I will.

[Novel Author Ji Shu Suspected of Plagiarism]

They found the evidence.

See? I told you.

[I've liked Ji Shu for years. I knew he's not that kind of person]

Someone will believe it if you said it.

A confirmed severely addicted individual to online novels.

Poor Ji Shu was wronged.

I've liked Ji Shu for years.

I knew he's not that kind of person.

See? Do you believe me now?

[I've liked Ji Shu for years. I knew he's not that kind of person]

Since the problem is solved,

you

don't have to follow me.

It's settled.

Why are you still unhappy?

Where's Song Yanqi?

She's out of work. She's not back yet.

Ask her to come to my office when she's back.

Mr. Jia.

I'm back.

Where have you been all day?

I couldn't find you in the office.

I went to help Ji Shu solve the plagiarism incident.

Didn't I tell you?

Brighter Than Stars is suspected of plagiarism.

Give up this project.

Everyone,

the company has decided to merge the two project teams.

An Jing. Feng Liu.

Mr. Jia.

After you two

finish the follow-up work of the previous project,

join the new project team.

Qingmiao.

Meet the platform right away.

After the meeting, the company will start the new project immediately.

Okay, I'll hurry up.

Mr. Jia.

Why did you give up?

It has been clarified.

So what?

I don't care if it's true or not.

This has become an uncontrollable risk factor

of this project.

Pack up the previous projects.

I'll finish the current project as soon as possible

and leave it to An Jing and the others.

What difference does it make if he posted a statement on Weibo?

He has a record of plagiarism.

Plus the rumor now.

Mr. Jia won't cooperate with him anymore.

Mr. Jia gave up the project doesn't mean Ji Shu plagiarized.

Do not comment when you do not know the full picture.

You don't even know who he is.

How can you say he has a record of plagiarism?

Do you know him better than I do?

Song Yanqi.

I remember you were also a student of Qinhai University.

Haven't you heard of

the plagiarism case of the architecture major of Qinhai University?

What a coincidence.

The protagonist is your Mr. Ji.

As an ex-convict,

he just can't change his old habit.

It's normal for us to give up this project.

If you want me to admit defeat,

please speak on your own strength

instead of belittling others.

Do you really know Ji Shu?

You can't say that if you know him.

How disappointing.

I didn't expect his friend

would say that behind his back.

The plagiarism case of the architecture major?

I don't remember.

[Sitting quietly, reflecting on one's own life; in leisurely conversation, refraining from discussing the faults of others]

[Comments]

I knew it.

After all Ji Shu brought a lot of income to the website.

Even a fool knows the website must protect him.

How much influence can suspend the update cause?

According to the insider,

Ji Shu is a constant plagiarist in real life.

He was expelled when he was in college.

Ji Shu.

You really copied my design and thesis?

After all,

you're just timid.

You're afraid no one will believe you.

But if you don't tell the truth,

how would they believe you?

How can you convince them to believe you?

Will anyone believe me if I tell them?

Most people would believe

what they want to believe,

and listen to what they want to hear.

But the truth is in the hands of the minority.

Most people would rather believe in lies.

So what?

Are there few examples of doing more with less?

They found the evidence.

See? I told you.

Someone will believe it if you tell them.

What brings you here?

I saw your news online.

I was worried about you.

I'm here to check on you.

Lin Qingmiao?

Didn't she insist that Ji Shu plagiarized?

Why is she here?

I'm fine. Go back.

Ji Shu.

Am I that annoying?

I just think

we don't need to contact each other anymore.

You still hate me, right?

Everything back then

started with me.

If I didn't take your stuff,

you wouldn't have been unable to defend yourself.

I don't care about that anymore.

If that's why you came to see me,

don't mention it again.

Ji Shu.

I've never let it go.

I know

it was my fault.

I apologize to you.

What kind of a person is she?

She pretended to be innocent in front of him while speaking ill behind his back.

Ji Shu.

Don't let me down.

Let bygones be bygones.

What about Song Yanqi?

I think you have a special relationship with her.

Before this,

did you plan to sign the copyright contract with her?

I...

We're just in touch at work.

You hesitated.

But do you know

she gave up immediately

as soon as you've been exposed for plagiarism?

See?

Everyone is realistic.

Lin Qingmiao.

When did you become like this?

When did you start to talk behind someone's back?

Listen.

She didn't give up.

I changed my mind and rejected her.

All right.

I'll go in if there's nothing else.

Don't worry.

He should be here soon.

Look at what I just said.

You'er here.

Come on in.

I'm helping Ji with his research.

Why did you call me here so late?

Sit down.

Lu.

Lin Qingmiao told me

Ji Shu was involved in a plagiarism case back in college.

How do you know Lin Qingmiao?

We're colleagues.

They're destined to meet.

Because of her,

Ji lost his

all his designs, thesis manuscript and backup.

Later, he was accused for having plagiarized

and couldn't prove himself.

He dropped out.

Dropped out? That serious?

I still remember what happened back then.

Qi. You don't remember?

You were called away by the counselor.

I think it was because of this.

I was also involved?

Yes.

So, I was really involved?

You don't remember?

I thought you already told Ji Shu

after you met Ji Shu.

I don't remember anything.

What's going on?

Isn't Lin Qingmiao his ex-girlfriend?

Why did she do that?

It's a long story.

Lin Qingmiao was Ji's girlfriend in college.

We three went to high school together.

She always liked Ji.

She chased him for a long time before they got together.

But Ji was isolated.

He didn't think too much.

He didn't know that Shan Hang also liked Lin Qingmiao.

He agreed to be Lin Qingmiao's boyfriend.

They got along in a normal way.

But Lin Qingmiao couldn't stand it.

She felt insecure at that time.

Once neglected,

she would try her best to increase her presence.

You should focus on studies.

I'm bored.

People say the library is a sacred place for dating.

I don't think so.

It's a sacred place for nerd like you.

If you're bored,

ask your roommates to go out with you

or go watch a movie.

Aren't you going to accompany me?

Everyone else's boyfriend would accompany them.

I'm not going with you.

I have to make designs.

You're always like this. You do design every day.

Aren't you tired of being with me every day?

Why don't you find someone else

to do something new with you?

Isn't it more fun?

Okay, I'll do as you say.

Ji Shu thought she took it.

But Lin Qingmiao didn't answer her phone or show up.

What she didn't know

was that Ji had a thesis and design to do at that time.

It was about whether Ji could get the spot for postgraduate recommendation.

He stayed in the library every day

to finish the design as soon as possible.

He wanted to find a time

to explain to Lin Qingmiao.

But she acted capriciously.

She found that Shan Hang liked her.

Qingmiao.

So she used Shan Hang to make Ji jealous.

I brought you buns today.

Thank you.

What filling?

Your favorite meat, beef.

How do you know I like beef?

But Ji

didn't realize her intention.

During that time,

Ji was busy looking for the design he lost.

But he couldn't find it.

So he rushed another one.

After that,

he realized that he neglected Lin Qingmiao.

He wanted to apologize to her,

but it's only been two days

before Ji was accused for plagiarism.

It would've been okay if the thesis hadn't been published.

But it had already been published.

Another highly similar thesis

was published a week ago.

It was done by a professor in our major

and his students.

One of the students

is Lin Qingmiao?

No.

It's Shan Hang.

He said he had already started long before

and had the full process recorded.

But that USB flash drive

is exactly the same as the one Ji lost.

But he insisted that it was his.

He also said

he had a witness.

Was I the witness?

Wait, let me think.

Excuse me.

Have you found a USB flash drive

and a stack of draft paper?

What color is the USB flash drive?

It's silver.

This one?

Yes, that's it.

And this stack of draft paper.

There are different dates on it.

I thought it's not rubbish.

It's will be troublesome if they were important design draft

and went missing.

Thank you.

This is really important to me.

Just keep it.

Which department are you from?

I'll treat you to dinner later.

Song Yanqi, a Chinese major.

You don't need to treat me.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Bye.

Sir, are you looking for me?

Come in.

Here's the thing.

Are you familiar with these?

I found something similar in the library.

Do you remember who was looking for them?

Who?

Who?

I remember it was him.

Have you read the contents in the USB flash drive?

No.

It's fine. You may leave.

I'm leaving.

Okay.

You both said that

you've lost these in the library.

The person who found them has been found.

Do you have anything else to say?

Sir,

you can open the USB flash drive

and check the date.

I marked the date

for each paper.

And it's encrypted.

I'm the only one who's able to modify the date and content.

The earliest date should be

November 7, 2017.

Shan Hang, do you remember the date?

October 15, 2017.

[Open the USB flash drive]

[Preliminary draft 2017. 10. 15]

Come and see for yourself.

[Preliminary draft 2017. 10. 15]

No way.

Enter the password and make modifications.

See if it will work.

[Wrong password]

How could this happen?

[Wrong password]

[Wrong password]

What else do you have to say?

Ji Shu.

You know I always value you.

But this is too bad.

The school will punish you.

You won't get the spot

for postgraduate recommendation.

As to your academic status,

I'll try to plead with the department.

You're a senior now.

You're going to graduate soon.

Sir, it's okay.

I'll drop out.

I didn't know

what the counselor asked me to testify for.

It's not your fault.

After thinking about it,

we thought something was wrong.

Ji is not a forgetful person.

Only Lin Qingmiao,

and Shan Hang who lived in the same dorm with us can take away the USB flash drive.

Later I asked her.

She said she just wanted Ji to pay more attention to her.

She didn't want to make a big deal out of it.

Then why didn't she testify?

Her? Testify?

They broke up

two or three days before this happened.

Lin Qingmiao

was found cheating with Shan Hang.

She said the thing was long gone.

But coincidentally,

Shan Hang had a same one.

Well.

You didn't do a handwriting test on the draft?

We did.

But they have solid evidence

and got two professors involved.

In the end, the school thought it was too bad.

Ji didn't want to implicate others.

He took the responsibility

and quit.

What's wrong?

Bro.

Why didn't you answer my call?

My phone died.

I came here as soon as I heard you dropped out.

What happened?

I asked Shan Hang, but he didn't tell me.

I'm fine now.

What do you mean?

You were scolded so badly on the forum.

You call that fine?

You dropped out of school. You call that fine?

Yu, I have nothing to say this time.

I can't accept it.

I have no choice.

Ji.

For everyone,

this is the best result.

How come it's the best result?

Your thesis, your design...

I watched you stay up all night to make them.

When did Shan Hang make these?

Ji,

you didn't plagiarize.

Why should you be punished?

Yu.

I'm tired.

I want to be alone now.

Go back early.

No.

It was so serious. So...

If I didn't testify,

it wouln't have been that serious.

Qi, don't think too much.

You ddin't know what happened.

So even if he clarifies this time,

for him...

It'll be like a nightmare reappearing.

Ji was so popular at school.

After this incident,

many people talked about him behind his back

and many looked down on him.

Song Yanqi, remember.

Don't admit it if you didn't do it.

Otherwise, you'll regret it.

So he said that

because he was hurt by those comments.

Qi, what're you talking about?

People tend to follow the crowd.

So the clarification statement

won't work at all.

Maybe.

The online comments are quite harsh.

And now even you are scolded.

This is why Ji Shu and I

wanted you to stay out of it.

I became one of the accomplices.

I don't want to repeat the same mistake now.

What do you want to do?

Those who retwitted and made comments maliciously

should know that the Internet is not a lawless place.

They should be responsible for their actions.

Calm down.

Xingxing, help me think of ideas.

How can I help him?

He's an adult.

He should be able to get over it.

Besides

the clues we can collect,

there is no substantial evidence.

He can only count on time.

He won't be able to get over it.

This is Ji's scar.

He has been wandering around

between gain and loss.

He doesn't seem to care about it,

but I know.

I know he cares about being abandoned.

That's why he thinks

there is no comedy in life.

Although he looks cold,

he really cares about what others think.

He went to see a psychiatrist

and kept it from me.

Okay, I pretended I didn't know.

He was not interested in novels at all.

One day,

he started writing novels.

I knew something was wrong.

Later, I vaguely knew

it was the psychologist

who made him heal and change himself in a way of writing novels.

However,

the medicine to save him became poison to harm him.

It's all my fault.

Qi.

Don't take everything on yourself.

It's been twice now. Both times it was because of me.

He loves to challenge himself.

He won't get over this.

He...

Xingxing, what should I do?

I don't want anything to happen to him.

Let's figure out a solution.

[Ji Shu What happened back then]

[Are you okay?]

Hello, Shu.

What is it?

Nothing.

I just want to know

how you've been.

I'll hang up if there's nothing else.

I don't need your concern.

Hello, Yiyang.

I need your help with something.

Sure.

Here's the thing.

It's...

It's natural for me to care about my son.

You little brat!

Did you drink?

Just a little.

All these years,

you still can't quit.

Since you're drunk,

go to bed early.

I'm gonna hang up.

Okay.

Thank you, Yiyang.

Just send it to me.

Thank you.

Miss.

Why are you walking around here?

You makes my dizzy.

Nothing. I'm just worried about my friend.

Then go upstairs.

Are you afraid he'll take it too hard?

I don't think so.

As an adult,

no matter what happened,

he'll get over it after a night.

If you're really worried,

just sit there and wait for a while.

Okay.

Shu.

I'm getting married.

Don't blame me.

What does it matter to you if I drink or not?

I didn't expect Ji Shu to plagiarize.

I even used to admire him.

The school will punish you.

You won't get the spot for postgraduate recommendation.

He plagiarized openly.

He should be blocked.

Morning, Mr. Ji.

Miss, wake up.

It's dawn.

Hello?

Did I wake you up?

No, I'm up.

I've drafted the lawyer statement

and sent it to you via WeChat.

Take a look.

Okay, thank you, Yiyang.

[Fu Xingxing]

Xingxing.

Ask your official website to post this online.

[Fu Xingxing]

Got it.

I've contacted some fans of Ji Shu.

They are willing to help.

Thank you for yesterday, Sir.

You're welcome.

It's dawn.

Are you still going up to see your friend?

Forget it.

Mr. Ji probably doesn't want to see me right now.

Ji?

Mr. Ji who lives in Room 301?

Yes.

He went out just now.

He went out?

Yes.

So early?

Thank you.

He's not in the park at this hour.

Is he running by the beach?

Ji Shu,

no matter how bad you feel,

you can't commit suicide.

I didn't.

I saw everything.

You kept walking into the sea.

I'm not as fragile as you think.

Let go.

What are you doing here?

I'm here to see you.

I want to tell you

there's nothing that can't be overcome.

Just send me a message.

You don't have to come.

You don't understand.

You have to say it in person when you want to comfort someone.

Then start comforting me.

At here?

Mr. Ji.

Everyone is like the rising sun.

There are ups and downs.

There's no need to forget the joy of rising

because of landing.

You must be the sun for yourself.

What do you think?

Were you reciting poems?

Since you can still tease me,

it proves that I did well.

Would you say it's harder to be physically tired

or mentally tired?

Mr. Ji.

Although I'm known as a human-shaped chicken soup manufacturer,

I'm unable to answer your question.

Why?

The question is like

"Is it a serious physical illness or a serious mental illness?"

Both are serious.

Of course.

Do you want to try?

What?

There are so many here.

Look, this one can move.

Beachcombers.

When I heard this phrase

when I first came to the beach,

I thought it was very romantic.

Beachcomers,

commonly known as Tidal Flats Gatherers.

It refers those who can't afford fishing boats

and use conch to fix the fishing net

on the beach for fishing.

Under the romantic appearance,

it's usually a real life.

The place where I lived as a child had mountains and rivers,

but no sea.

So, when I was little, I really wanted

to see the sea.

In order to see it one day,

I've been learning to swim since I was a kid.

Sometimes I would lie on the window,

imagining the vast sea behind the mountain.

Behind the mountain

is also a mountain.

People should have expectations.

It's good to have expectations.

But the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.

No.

My grandma used to tell me

about the Little Mermaid.

At that time,

I was looking forward to seeing the sea.

But when I did,

it was not as good as I thought.

The sea was destroyed by humans

and lost its radiance.

The Little Mermaid is a sad story.

You like it?

I do.

Although I didn't understand

why the Little Mermaid

can't be with the prince.

After I grew up,

I realized what I wanted to change

is not the ending of the princess.

If I were her,

I wouldn't exchange my voice

for a chance to walk on land.

She passed the right to choose to others

and lost the ability to speak.

How silly.

What would you do

if it were you?
