[My Calorie Boy]

[Episode 28: The Young Man in Pursuit of His Dream]

Yes. Straighten your back.

Beautiful.

Very good.

Okay, Children. Let's rest a while.

Are you thinking about your daughter again?

There's nothing that can't be solved between a mother and her daughter.

Stop fighting with her.

Your child will enter the university soon.

Then you can't see her anymore even if you want to.

[Time Entertainment]

Hello. Whom are you looking for?

I have an appointment with Manager Huang.

Okay. This way, please.

Here.

- Manager Huang. - Come in.

You have a guest.

Hello. You are Jing Jing's mother, right?

Come. Please take a seat.

Have a seat.

- Please drink some water. - Thank you. I've brought my own water.

Okay.

Why are you here?

I just want to learn more about your company.

I'm sure you understand. All mothers are the same.

We don't want our children to sign a contract with an improper company.

I'm not saying that you are an improper company. Please don't misunderstand me.

I understand.

I have my own children, too.

I understand how you feel.

Hurry and introduce the company to me.

For example,

after she signs a contract with your company,

will it affect her studies or her life?

Hasn't Jing Jing told you yet?

What is it?

Jing Jing told us that she would only consider our offer after the college entry examination.

We were very happy when she said that.

Of course, we also hope our company's artists have a higher cultural literacy.

So we are willing to wait for her.

Jing Jing.

Your Grade 12 motivation camp will be in two days' time.

Will you really not tell your mom about it?

I don't have to tell her.

She must have seen it in the parents' chat group already.

Are you really going to ignore each other for the rest of your life?

Tell me.

Do you really think your mom is that bad?

Let me tell you.

Actually, your mom is a little impatient.

She has a sharp tongue.

She's all bark and no bite.

She looks so fierce when she fights with you,

but cried a lot for you behind your back.

If your mom was really that bad,

do you think I could spend most of my life with her?

But come to think of it,

you colluded with your friends last time to deceive her about the exam.

That was really your fault.

I know, Dad.

That examination was my fault.

Okay.

Let me ask you a question then.

If your mom agrees to let you learn street dance

and allows you to sign a contract with the company,

will you reconcile with her?

Dad. She won't agree.

What if she does?

Can you apologize to your mom first?

Good Girl.

Okay now, come in.

Jing Jing.

Mom.

That's enough.

This is a good thing. Don't get all emotional.

Right? Come.

Sit here.

Have a nice chat with your daughter.

I'll check on the food.

Jing Jing.

Lately, I've been thinking a lot by myself.

You are right.

I haven't been listening to you.

I... I never thought

that you would suffer so much from ballet.

Mom.

That examination was my fault.

Stop crying.

It was my fault.

I was too selfish.

Mom.

Actually,

I've been remembering the times I always saw you

by the barre (handrail) or in the spectator seat while I learned ballet.

It made me feel sure of myself.

Although I've changed to a new platform,

I still hope that I can see you in the spectator seat.

For me, if I have your support,

no matter what obstacles I face, I won't fear.

Although I don't know much about street dance,

I'm willing to learn more about it.

I watched many street dance videos lately.

They're quite cool.

- Really? - Yes.

Excuse me.

It's time to eat.

It's time to eat.

Let's go and eat.

The food is ready.

Today, it'll be a feast of meat, no vegetables at all.

Mom. Can I eat meat today?

Eat as much as you want.

Okay now. Come and eat now.

- Come. Let's eat. - I want to sit with my mom.

- Come. - Okay.

[Jiangsu Province: 2014 Student-Athlete Recruitment Test Result]

Wait.

Did Xiong Shuai really take his bag and leave?

When I was in the teacher's office just now, I heard a call from his parents.

Xiong Shuai didn't pass the Student-Athlete Recruitment Test.

So he will quit school.

But he still has the college entrance examination.

Maybe he feels it's pointless for him.

For him, the college entrance examination requires even more cultural achievements.

What should we do now?

We can't just do nothing while Xiong Shuai sells vegetables with his parents.

Da Peng. You are the closest to Xiong Shuai.

How about you talk to him first?

Okay. Leave it to me.

I'll find a way to bring Xiong Shuai back.

Young Man, what do you want to buy? Come.

- Our vegetables are really fresh. - I'm not here to buy vegetables.

I'm here to look for someone.

"Look for someone"?

Xiong Shuai.

Da Peng.

Xiong. Do you know how worried everyone was when you didn't return to school?

Help me thank them.

Are you just going to sell vegetables with your parents?

Selling vegetables is not that bad.

I don't have to think.

And I don't have to run under fifteen seconds.

I already know about the Student-Athlete Recruitment Test.

If you can't make it this year, you can repeat the year.

Maybe I'll be repeating a year, too. Right?

Then we can be in the same class again.

"Repeat a year"?

Do you think I'm cut out for it?

If you train another year, it'll be easy for you to get faster by one second.

The sports industry is different.

Even one second is very hard to achieve.

It requires strict training and a strict diet.

These things take money.

Repeating a year takes money, too.

It hasn't been easy for my parents to raise me until now.

I don't want to burden them anymore.

What are you saying? You have me.

Am I not your best friend?

I'll pay your training and school fees.

You can pay me back when you've become the next Liu Xiang (hurdler),

or no need to pay me back.

What are you laughing at?

I just think since I don't have the talent, I shouldn't waste my youth on it.

Will you sacrifice your youth at the farmers' market?

- Are you looking down on greengrocers? - No. That's not what I meant.

Every occupation is noble. Be proud of your own hard work.

What I mean is,

you can be so much more than this.

Thank you, Da Peng.

I've already made up my mind.

Tell the other students to study hard.

- No. - It's late already.

You should go back now.

I can't ask you to stay for dinner.

I need to help my mom close the store.

Xiong Shuai.

Is he really a greengrocer now?

I tried my best to change his mind.

But he won't listen to me.

Even if he failed the Student-Athlete Recruitment Test, there's the college entry exam.

That's right. He put so much effort into it.

He can't just give up.

That's right. If he quits right now, he can't even get the High School Diploma.

His future will be hard with just a secondary school certificate.

Ni Da Peng. Did you talk properly to him?

I... Of course, I did.

I was one step from showing him my heart.

We can't leave this. We must get him to return for the college entry exam.

Is there anything we can do?

I have an idea.

- Boss. Are you here to sell things or play with your phone? - Xu Jing Jing?

Don't be nervous. I'm not here to ask you to return.

I'm just passing by.

So I want to buy some vegetables. I want to support your business.

Stop joking with me.

I'm not joking with you. I think being a greengrocer is not bad.

Truly, I want to be a greengrocer.

Does your family need another helper?

Stop joking around. What do you want?

- I'll give it to you for free. - You can't do that.

Business is business.

If your friends don't pay, business will suffer great loss.

I must pay you.

Then... then let me give you a discount.

If you say that, I'll buy elsewhere then.

Okay then.

See what you want.

I think your tomatoes are quite fresh.

I want all of them.

What's wrong? I want them all.

I love tomatoes. Tomatoes are my life.

Give all the potatoes to me. I want the potatoes.

What's wrong? Won't you sell them to me?

Who am I?

I am a customer. The customer is always right.

You need to serve me with a smile, okay?

Smile.

Cauliflower, I love cauliflower the most.

Can you give me more?

I'll pay you. I want them all.

Da Peng wants potatoes. So I'll take the green bell peppers.

I want lettuce, zucchini and this chili.

As for the rest, all in!

Miss Chen.

Miss Chen. We did it because we really want him

to come back to school.

I understand how you feel.

But I hope you rather focus on your studies

at this critical time.

Now is not the time for you to step in.

Miss Chen. Xiong Shuai is already like this.

We can't leave him alone.

The school is talking to his parents about this now.

I think you should believe in the school and the teachers.

We'll do our best.

Don't worry about him.

Xiong Shuai told me this when he called me.

He hopes that your studies

will not be affected by him.

If that happens, he'll feel so guilty.

Right?

I think we should believe that Xiong Shuai

can make the right choice.

You should learn from him,

especially you who failed the first mock exam.

You can't fail the second mock exam.

Do you understand?

♫ I see the vast sky of stars that follow me like a shadow ♫

♫ I see the daybreak approaches me ♫

♫ Every time I am filled with a helpless calm, there's always a sound ♫

♫ Just like a firefly that leads me forward ♫

♫ Bravely walk forward as you are now ♫

♫ A flower that blossoms along the wind ♫

♫ Don't be afraid of the price of growing up. It's like a bet for the future ♫

Pine, plum blossom, bamboo, and chrysanthemum are virtue symbols

that don't fear evil.

Ancient people used these four images

to represent nobility and virtue.

To...

Why is the electricity suddenly cut off?

Okay, Students. That's it for today.

Pack your things and go home.

Miss Chen. Will this work?

Miss Chen, continue with the lesson.

We can see the blackboard now.

That's right, Miss Chen.

Continue with the lesson.

We don't want to go home.

- That's right, Miss Chen. - That's right.

Continue with the lesson.

We don't want to go home.

Continue with the lesson.

Okay. Let's continue then.

We use the moon as a symbol of homesickness.

When the moon is high in the sky, it often causes nostalgia.

For instance, Du Fu's "Missing My Brother under the Moonlight."

"The lunisolar will start today."

"The moon shines brightest in my hometown."

And another example is Su Shi:

"Separation is inevitable,"

"just like the moon with different phases."

They all describe poets' homesickness,

missing their family and friends.

When Miss Chen mentioned missing a friend,

I thought of Xiong Shuai.

Me, too.

I don't know what he's doing now.

Let's get through this year

and live without regrets!

Great!

This is a path we must walk on.

We won't stop until we achieve what we want!

Good!

We only go through Grade 12 once.

I'll always remember Grade 12 Class 7!

Amazing!

All our hard work until now is for this!

Let's do our best in our coming examination!

Nice!

Conic Section (math curve), die!

Yes!

Wang Jia Yao, may you do well in your college exam

and your second mock test!

Awesome!

[Kang Jia Wei]

Master Kang.

Are you still trying to brainwash me?

I hope that our friend can change his mind

and fight together with us!

Nice!

Xiong Shuai!

Come back now!

It's just a college entry exam!

We'll fight with you until the end!

Xiong, come back!

No one understands my humor!

I feel lonely without you!

Xiong Shuai!

If you don't return, Da Peng will be lovesick!

Xiong Shuai! Come back!

Let's do our best

and conquer the exam!

No matter how hard it is, hang on!

Leave no regrets!

Although we start from small,

we'll end with a bang!

The arts stream wishes the science stream

all the best and get into the top universities!

The science stream wishes the arts stream

all the best and get into the top universities!

All the best in the college entry exam!

All hail our youth!

♫ My life has become illuminated and my growth is filled with sweetness ♫

♫ Perhaps when our youth is over ♫

♫ We won't regret the times we spent together ♫

[63 Days to the College Entrance Examination]

Something has happened! Something has happened!

- What happened? - Xiong Shuai...

What happened to Xiong Shuai? Tell us.

He's back!

I was very foolish, right?

It happens to everyone.

Look at Da Peng. He acts foolish all the time.

Jia Yao.

This is not how you comfort someone.

Don't leave again after this.

My heart can't take it.

That's right.

We missed you so much when you were not here.

Due to you, Da Peng and I ate stir-fry potatoes and bell peppers half a month.

Are we competing who had it worse?

I ate stir-fried tomato with egg half a month, cooked by Madam Wang Jia Ren.

Thank you, everyone. Thank you for not giving up on me.

We still have time. If you don't understand something,

ask Gao Zhan and me.

Let's work hard together. Class 3 will not fail!

Come.

Come, one, two, three!

All the best!

The second mock test is tomorrow.

Come, as usual.

Is this for real?

Am I really that lucky?

No. Did you do something to the cards? Show them to me.

I wouldn't do that.

All the best tomorrow.

You, too.

All the best for your dad's operation tomorrow.

I was too positive before this.

I talked to the doctor in the past two days.

I don't understand. Why didn't he tell me sooner?

If he had told me, I could spend more time with him.

Maybe he wanted to tell you about it after the exam.

What if something bad happened to him?

Are the cancer cells under his command?

I'm sorry.

I'm too anxious about it.

[Second Mock Test]

Miss Chen, please come here for a moment.

Kang Jia Wei's dad might not make it.

There is an emergency.

Okay.

You have a call from your family.

Continue with your test.

[Inpatient Building]

[Operating Room]

- Xiao Wei. - How's my dad?

They are still trying to save him.

Xiao Wei, will your dad...

No. He won't.

He won't.

[Operating Room]

Doctor. How is he?

Are you Kang Min Zhi's family?

Although we managed to save him, he's still in a bad condition.

He's still in a coma. We will send him to ICU (Intensive Care Unit).

You must sign this.

[First Paper: Multiple Choice Questions]

How did the operation go?

Your dad's operation must have been successful, right?

Do you still have the oat bar that my dad made?

Jing Jing.

What are you looking for?

The oat bar. Where is the oat bar?

What oat bar?

Jing Jing.

Jing Jing. Are you looking for this?

It's raining.

Kang Jia Wei.

I found it.

Do you think

this will be the last thing from my dad?

No, Kang Jia Wei.

- Your dad will make a full recovery. He will. - But the doctor told me

that his cancer has spread.

♫ Your love is something that I can never thank you for ♫

♫ You hold me and show me a higher, further and bigger sky ♫

I never thought that my dad would one day leave me.

I never thought about it at all.

Why must it be him?

Why? Why must it be my dad?

Why does it have to be my dad?

My dad is such a good man!

He treats me so well!

♫ Father, I know you ♫

♫ You've taught me how to be tough and never give up ♫

Can anyone tell me why he was chosen?

♫ Waking you up with my love, I am your eyes and I am your arms ♫

Xu Jing Jing.

When you helped me exercise to slim down, you always said

that five more seconds, then it would be done.

So I keep thinking if I hang on for five more seconds and five more

and five more, maybe it'll be better.

And I won't be afraid!

And I won't be afraid!

But these five seconds are too long!

I don't want to lose my dad!

When will this pain end?

♫ To find my happiness in the future ♫

♫ Waking you up with my love ♫

♫ I am your eyes and I am your arms ♫

What's wrong with Kang Jia Wei?

I don't know. Xu Jing Jing is gone, too.

Her parents called me early in the morning

and told me she was gone the whole night.

I called Xu Jing Jing many times, too.

But she didn't pick up.

Xu Jing Jing.

What's wrong?

Why do you look so sick?

What's wrong with Kang Jia Wei?

Yes. What happened to him? He was with you yesterday, right?

Why was he called out halfway through the test?

Did something happen to his family?

Do we have to visit him?

Have you forgotten your morning self-study session?

Do you want to be lectured by teachers?

Just tell us, Jing Jing. We worry about him, too.

About Kang Jia Wei's issue, you should hear it from him.

- But we... - Enough, stop bothering me.

Do your studies.

Okay, Miss Chen.

I got it.

Thank you.

Xiao Wei! Where were you?

I was so worried about you.

How is my dad now?

Xiao Wei.

You must hang in there.

The doctor gave us notice of critical illness.

Stop it.

Xiao Wei. I just called Miss Chen on the phone.

The classes are still ongoing.

You should return to school first.

I asked Xu Jing Jing to apply for my school leave of absence.

"Xu Jing Jing"?

Xu Jing Jing is a nice child.

Before I came back,

she took care of your dad

when he was not feeling well.

Did she take care of my dad?

What do you mean?

Xiao Wei. You haven't slept the whole night, right? How about you go home first?

No. What did you say just now?

Did Xu Jing Jing take care of my dad?

Xiao Wei!

Jing Jing.

You should eat something.

You can't starve yourself.

I don't have the appetite. You can eat mine.

Do you want to eat instant noodles? I'll buy it for you.

I don't want to eat.

Kang Jia Wei, why are you here?

Has your dad gotten better?

What happened to your dad?

Don't scare me, Kang Jia Wei.

Say something.

Why did you keep it a secret from me?

You knew it long ago.

Why didn't you tell me?

Why didn't you tell me that my dad was sick? Why?

I...

Y-Your dad asked to keep it a secret from you.

- Kang Jia Wei. - Let go! I've nothing to say to you! Understand?

I have something to say.

I'm sorry. I-I didn't do it on purpose.

I wanted to tell you. But he said he didn't want to affect your studies.

Two months, two months,

I lost two months due to you.

I could have two more months

with my dad.

Yes!

My dad asked you not to tell me. Of course, he would say that!

But what about you?

Couldn't you make your own decision?

If you had used your brain,

you would have told me!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Stop apologizing to me!

Unless you can give me back those two months,

can you do that?

I...

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry!

Kang Jia Wei.

Actually, I still have much to tell you.

But I know that no matter what I say,

you won't forgive me.

But if you forgive me or not,

I still wish your dad all the best.

I still wish you

all the best for your college entry exam.

Kang Jia Wei.

I'm sorry.

Xiao Wei. I'm back.

Where is he?

Xiao Wei.

Xiao Wei. Xiao Wei, what's wrong?

I'm fine.

No. Are you sick?

As I said, I'm fine.

You are not fine.

Can you leave me alone?

No! Because I'm your mom!

Are you my mom?

Why didn't you say you were my mom

when you left me and my dad?

Xiao Wei.

I admit... that back then,

I was too selfish.

All these years,

I've been regretting every moment of my life for leaving you.

In the past ten years,

you refused to talk to me.

I know

that you hate me.

But your dad is in ICU now.

We have to stick together

to solve all future obstacles that come our way.

"Solve"?

How can we solve this?

Can you make my dad come out of ICU in pink health?

Can you make Xu Jing Jing tell me the truth two months ago?

Can you not file a divorce with my dad

and relive the past ten years and more?

Xiao Wei.

Did you think I wanted your gifts?

Did you know what I wanted?

After you left,

I kept thinking that you might return to us one day.

But you didn't.

Every year, cold, unfeeling gifts were my only connection to you!

You say that I hate you.

Do I really hate you?

You kept asking my dad how I felt about you.

This is the answer.

Mom, long time no see.

I am Kang Jia Wei.

What do you think?

I look quite handsome after I slimmed down, right?

I'm recording this video since David contacted me.

He wants me to give you my blessings for your marriage.

Maybe he thinks

that you'll be surprised to see a video from me.

Actually, I want to ask you a question.

After leaving us,

have you found your happiness?

Have you found the life you wanted?

If you have, why do you want to look for me who is a thief and a sinner?

Xiao Wei. I know

that it's pointless for me to say anything now.

But I still want to apologize to you.

I love you.

I really love you.

It's true.

I filed for a divorce with your dad

and left the country

not because I hated you.

But it's because

I couldn't handle that marriage anymore.

But

I didn't want to be just a mother for the rest of my life.

Of course, it has nothing to do with you.

You are not a thief.

For the first few years after I went abroad,

I could see

your face every night

when I closed my eyes.

And you would call me, "Mom."

I'm sorry, Xiao Wei.

I was too selfish.

If I could turn back time ten years,

I wouldn't have chosen to leave you behind.

I'm not a good mother.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Mom.

Let's wait for dad to return to us.

Let's wait for him to come back to us.
