(Blocked a very threatening shot from a teammate.)

(And during the second goal conceded, number six is precisely...)

(Let's take another look. This shot is powerful and forceful.)

(The distance is very close.)

(Even if the angle is not very crafty,)

(I'm afraid it would be tricky for the goalkeeper.)

(So today, whether it's in offense or defense,)

(the team is lacking a bit of luck.)

Sorry for the long wait.

How did you get here from there?

I took a shortcut. It's faster.

Running away from home?

Self-reliance.

Let's start with a cup of sugar latte.

Here you go.

So a barista's handmade coffee means buying a cup from the convenience store.

This is called a handmade double-sugar latte.

Try it.

How is it? Is it a bit different?

Feels like it's at least ten yuan more expensive.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Are you sure you're okay? You seem a bit off.

Maybe I'm just tired from the ride. It's nothing.

Do you live around here?

It's just right in this alley.

This convenience store is quite fairy-tale-like.

This is our local famous convenience store,

selling coffee 24/7.

The boss here is a man of rock and roll.

He's got that Nirvana vibe.

Do you know Nirvana?

Nope.

It's a band from abroad in the early years.

They must all be a bunch of elders now, huh?

Do you like rock?

My dad likes it. I've been listening to it at home since I was little.

My dad is a taxi driver. He pays special attention to his appearance.

But when he gets off work, and there are no passengers in the car,

he would play that kind of crazy dynamic rock music.

Imagine, a taxi-driving old man

playing rock in the car. Isn't that especially cool?

Indeed, it's very cool. I like your dad.

What about your dad. What does he do?

He's a surgeon.

That's pretty cool too, cool in a cold way.

No wonder you're a designer. It must be in your genes. Skillful hands.

Now that you mention it, there seems to be a connection.

I do have nimble hands. I always thought I take after my grandfather.

My grandfather was an exceptionally skilled carpenter.

You've mentioned it before, I remember.

He had his own woodworking workshop.

It was small, but really cool.

Every time I went to the factory, I felt like there were robots inside.

But when I turned seven,

(Balloon Convenience Store) he made me a robot out of wood.

It was like...

(This Balloon Convenience Store started my fortune)

(but also marked the beginning of her misfortune.)

(I've thought about it many times later.)

(If I could go back in time, would I choose to see her by appointment again?)

(Unfortunately, there are no 'ifs'.)

What are you doing? You scared me.

Two things. First, you promised to have dinner with me.

But you made me wait here until 9:30.

You didn't even answer my calls. Why?

My phone died.

Couldn't borrow a power bank?

Where did you go that was so deserted? Who did you see?

A friend.

Girlfriend?

What's the second thing?

Okay, why did you buy me six boxes of these?

You don't usually buy me drinks.

Why did you suddenly buy so much today? What, is it to offset the rent?

Chen Guangpu, I'm only staying here to take care of you.

And yet you ask me for rent? I could go back to the dorm.

Wait a minute, what do you mean by that?

Trying to leave after injuring me like this, huh?

Who will take care of me if you go back to the dorm?

My arm hasn't fully recovered.

How can I take care of myself with just one arm?

You couldn't take care of yourself even when both your arms were fine.

I...

I'm going inside.

Stop there! Lin Tuo, explain it to me right now.

Who did you go see? Explain it now.

To the right! Go get them from the right!

Right, wait for me.

Go, go, go. What are you doing?

Don't you think she's been particularly talkative today?

And she's laughing uncontrollably, too.

Well done.

Why do I feel like something's about to happen?

It's definitely to do with that boy.

What boy?

Well done. Good job!

I forgot to tell you, didn't I?

Tell me what?

That's weird.

No, wait.

She met a boy at an interview a few days ago.

After that, she's been acting very abnormal.

Look how lively she is. It's scary.

No, wh-where is that boy from?

What's his name? What's his major? What does he do?

I don't know. She's never told me.

She just said to me that day that he's cute when he smiles.

Right under this tower. Exactly.

Que.

Get ready.

He has a particularly handsome smile?

So handsome.

Something's up.

Call a meeting.

How long?

We met a few days ago.

He is just a friend.

Had dinner once.

And had a coffee.

The same age as me.

A junior in college.

He's single.

You kissed after dinner, didn't you?

How could that be?

Why would we hold hands?

She's my type.

He's cute when he smiles.

They're only hiring one person.

When I looked at it at school, it didn't say that.

Why don't you go?

It's fine for me. Just go.

You found it, so of course, you should go.

You're the priority.

Why don't we go talk to the boss, just in case?

- Okay. - Let's go.

Let's go.

(Spring Breeze Self-Study Room)

I've explained the general situation.

As you can see, our study room isn't actually that big.

We do only need one person.

- Then... - Then hire us both.

And just pay us as one person.

Yes, one person's salary.

This doesn't seem quite appropriate.

Think about it, the two of us working together

will definitely be more efficient than one person, yes?

Alright then.

I have another suggestion.

Go ahead.

I can help you sell dumplings.

Sure, that way we'll have two incomes.

Two part-time jobs, not bad.

Perfect.

- Cheers - Cheers.

Try this potato. It's exclusive to this place, and it's really good.

- I'll give it a try. - Yeah.

There's another one here.

Is it good?

Yes.

Wait, working at a dumpling shop

and cleaning the study room doesn't count as an internship, so no credits.

These are all part-time jobs, let's look elsewhere for an internship.

Okay.

I'll work on it. Don't worry.

Here's to you.

Alright.

You can hold your liquor.

I got it from my father.

I mainly drink to keep him company.

Sounds like you can drink pretty well.

I've never drunk with my dad yet.

Doesn't your dad drink?

He doesn't always drink, and he wouldn't drink with me either.

Mainly with his leaders.

True, intellectuals are usually strict with home discipline.

Not like my dad. He's less educated.

But he's very easy-going. Very easy to get along with.

I envy you.

I envy you more.

Alright, let's stop envying each other.

Let's celebrate our part-time jobs.

Cheers.

Drink some more today.

Where are you going?

To buy drinks.

Sit down. I'll go get some.

This is me.

No, let's go straight to the hospital.

No need.

Uh, is your dad home?

He has the night shift, so no.

Please come in.

Let me get you some slippers.

I'll do it myself.

It's fine.

Please sit.

Maybe we should still go to the hospital.

It's okay. It's just a cold. Some medicine will do.

Do you have any cold medicine at home?

Yes, I'll go get it.

Is there hot water?

Yes, it's on that table.

Let me.

Thank you.

(Cold & Flu Granules)

It's not too hot. Just go ahead.

Thank you.

We should take your temperature. Got a thermometer at home?

Yes, it's right here.

Go ahead.

Okay.

Your home looks quite cozy.

It is cozy, but it's a bit old.

We've already bought a new house, and the down payment is all paid.

We're paying the mortgage now. We can move in next year.

Can you rent this house to me when the time comes?

Are you staying here after graduation?

Yeah, I'll stay here after I graduate.

Renting a house, looking for a job.

Sure, I'll rent the house to you at the cheapest price.

Our new house isn't far from here.

Then I'll save up.

Are you sure you're okay? Your face still looks red.

I'm fine, just a cold. I'll be better after some sleep.

I'll go boil some water.

Okay, thank you.

Que.

Who are you?

I...

Who are you?

Uncle.

Who are you? Tell me.

- Dad, put it down. - Calm down.

Easy.

Who is he?

I'm her boyfriend.

Boyfriend?

When did the two of you start dating?

Uncle, just now...

You said you were Que's boyfriend.

You said so, right?

I did.

Then explain now.

Explain what exactly?

When did the two of you meet

and start dating?

Wait. Why didn't you tell me about this?

Do you think it's okay?

Uncle.

Sit. Sit down. You're so tall.

I get dizzy just by looking at you. Sit.

Go ahead.

Uncle. I was a bit anxious and didn't make myself clear.

I want to be An Zhique's boyfriend.

Don't chuckle, I'm telling you.

This is a man-to-man conversation, okay?

It's not like you can be Que's boyfriend just because you want to.

Do you know each other?

We do.

Stop laughing. Be serious. That's not enough.

Knowing is one thing, but can Que agree to it?

I can.

Alright, I'll leave.

- Dad. - Uncle.

Are the two of you in a relationship or not?

For sure, we are in a relationship now.

Uncle, rest assured, I will be good to Que.

I hope to get your blessing.

Uncle, here.

Love at first sight.

For real?

Thank you, Uncle.

Do you know what I used to do?

I was a truck driver. I drove all over Inner Mongolia and Tibet.

Back then, driving trucks wasn't as peaceful as it is now.

You could run into all sorts of people. Look here.

Here, and there's more on the back.

- I see it, Uncle, I see the scars. - Take a good look.

All from back in those days.

Come on, poke it, here.

It's all muscle. Here, right here.

I feel it. I do.

Keep that in mind.

Got it.

You're... Lin.

Lin Tuo.

Yes, Lin, your build is too frail, you know?

You need to work out. Look at your skinny arms and legs.

Work for five to six hours a day.

In a year or so, I guess you could become stronger.

Eat it, and drink some tea.

Go home quickly, or you'll catch a cold again.

Go home and have another packet of medicine.

Drink some warm water, and keep yourself warm at night.

If you feel worse again, give me a call.

I'll take you to the hospital.

Did you hear me?

I did.

Why are you staring at me?

I'm a bit confused.

I'm also a bit confused.

It's not because of a cold, is it?

Did I get a cold and suddenly have a boyfriend?

This is all real, right? Don't let it disappear when I wake up tomorrow.

What are you doing? Still oversleeping with graduation looming?

- Can't I sleep? - Move your legs.

Is it okay? Does it work?

Great. It works. Perfect.

Hold on, wait a second.

Wait a second. The background.

This background won't do. Clean it up. Pack this away.

It's fine. Pick up the computer.

Okay, come on.

Good afternoon. I am Lin Tuo, a 2020 graduate

majoring in Industrial Design at Dong Yuan University of Technology.

(Shihui City Wet Market)

Auntie, almost done, just two more.

(Linglong Raw Dumplings) It's alright, no rush.

Why hasn't your boyfriend come today?

Lin Tuo's busy, but he'll be here soon.

Okay, Auntie, take care.

See you next time.

Okay.

Excuse me.

I'm here.

You made it. Come on.

Running out of time?

- Yes, they're hurrying me. - Sleeve.

Come, this one.

I'll help you.

Was there traffic on your way?

It's alright. Take the stuff.

Alright, I'm off.

Be careful.

Right here.

What are you doing? What makeup is that? What are you doing here?

I'm not interviewing to be a beauty blogger. Where's the restroom?

I'll take you there.

Over here.

(Linglong Raw Dumplings) Mr. Cute.

You're back.

Thank you. You worked hard today.

I bought this juice tea you like.

A different taste. Try this lychee and passionfruit one.

Okay.

It's tasty, isn't it?

Yes, it is.

Where's Que?

Interview. She'll be back soon.

Sure thing.

Oh right, Aunt Wu, who perms hair, got you a wax gourd.

Crap. Do you know what I did?

I left without paying after getting my hair permed, really.

Wait a bit. I'll be back. We'll talk then.

- Alright. - Later.

Okay, I'm going now.

You scared me.

These are even heart-shaped. You're really skillful.

Want them?

Yeah. Who did you make these for?

- Aunt Wang. - Que.

- Aunt Wang. - You're back.

I have something to tell you two.

My daughter is about to give birth.

So, I may have to go live with her to help take care of the baby.

Therefore, I won't be running this stall anymore.

Is it going to be closed?

I have no choice. Maternity nurses are so expensive.

It's better if I go and help her myself.

I've just gotten the hang of making dumplings,

mixing fillings and all that, and now I'm about to be unemployed.

How could you two college students be unemployed?

You can find a job easily.

You two can't spend your whole lives at my dumpling stall

making dumplings, right?

Hurry and eat.

After eating, are you going to that study room?

Yes.

- Is that so? - Yes.

Go ahead.

See you later.

- Alright. - See you.

Okay, okay.

Tuo.

Beibei, come here, give me a hug.

Her mom's gone to the night shift, so I had to bring her over.

Thanks for your trouble.

Not at all.

Beibei, let your daddy read his book first.

Can you play with me instead?

Be good. You can't disturb him while he's working.

Tell Daddy if you need anything, okay?

I'll take it.

What story are you going to tell me today?

A fairy tale.

Lin, thank you so much.

Come.

Careful, she's asleep.

See you.

Uncle Four, happy birthday.

How did you know?

Thank you.

It's fine. Bye.

Uncle Four. Bye.

Life is hard and competitive.

But it is indeed tough for Uncle Four to study for the exam with a child.

This is already the fourth time, if he doesn't pass, he'll become Uncle Five.

Oh right, I should pay you two today.

(32 years old, failed the postgraduate exam four times.)

(Would my three-year-old daughter know her father is a failure?)

(Nobody remembers this loser's birthday tomorrow.)

Mom.

Has Ye called you?

No, why?

Your dad lost his temper with him today.

He hasn't come home until now, and I'm so worried.

Could he be at the library?

The library would have closed by this time.

He's taking the college entrance exam next year.

But he's not focused on that at all.

Your dad gets impatient whenever he talks to him, and I couldn't help them.

Don't worry for now. I will give him a call in a bit.

Alright, have a good talk with him.

I know.

Oh, Mom. I got my paycheck from my part-time job today.

I've transferred some to you. Did you see it?

WeChat? I haven't checked yet. I just got off work.

I'll say it again. Find a proper job, okay?

I know. I'm working on it.

Okay, talk to you later.

I'm gonna call and see if your brother's back.

Mom.

What's wrong?

It's nothing. My mom's just worried about me, asking about my interview.

I don't know what's up with my phone.

Did it crash again? It won't turn on at all.

Let me see.

I was thinking of buying you a pair of sneakers.

Aren't you about to have a match soon?

It's on. I guess the battery is failing.

How come it starts working as soon as it gets to you?

Look, do you like these?

Don't. The salary is for you to spend it on yourself.

My sneakers are just fine.

Oh no.

What's wrong?

My dumplings are still in the bag.

This one?

My heart-shaped dumplings. Why didn't you say anything?

Never mind. Let's just eat them like pies.

You can still make some for me when you get back.

Sure, I'll make as many as you want.

They are really like pies now!

Get him. Get him.

Where is he?

- Use your first skill. - Here.

(Ye)

- Hit him again. - Retreat.

Leave while they're not around.

Right.

(Payment password) That's the only way.

(WeChat Red Packet)

Someone's coming.

(Red Packet Received) Crap. It's over.

I can't believe you didn't get that.

What about you? Did you even scout ahead?

Do I smell barbecue?

It's not for you. Sit down.

The Northeast flavor?

It's from my cousin abroad. What's it to you?

Wait.

How come you're back?

I asked you to come over to my place, but you didn't.

I can only come back to find you.

Your house is too far from where my interview is tomorrow.

Fine, whatever you say.

Put it down. It's not for you.

Didn't you come back to see me? Who's it for?

Lemon.

Didn't she just block you yesterday?

Let me tell you, Lin Tuo.

Don't get cocky just because you are in a relationship, okay?

I'm about to graduate. If I don't find a girlfriend now, when will I?

School romances are better. Do you get it?

If she kicks you out in a bit,

bring the barbecue back. Don't waste it.

I suggest you say something nice.

And you two.

Four years of being single. Stop messing around and find a job.

Chen Guangpu, before you go, I have something to show you.

I guarantee you won't regret it.

Look at Lemon's WeChat Moments today.

What's this? Who is this guy?

She blocked me and went out on a date today. What does that mean?

Think about your own problems.

She's done for. Just wait.

What about the barbecue?

Forget about it!

Maybe I should give it a try.

Come on, dinner's ready, guys.

The Northeast BBQ is the best.

Come on.

Come.

Right.

Two, three.

Coming. Coming.

Why can't I open it?

I'll teach you again.

Look. Press these, right? Nine, eight.

Keep your voice down. This is the password.

Zero, five, two, three.

You see, it doesn't work.

You have to press the pound key, then it opens. See?

So, I forgot to press that pound key, right?

Come inside.

But this is inconvenient.

There are locks that you can open with just a fingerprint, right?

Isn't that expensive? Just press it a few more times and you'll remember.

If you ask me, this lock is unnecessary.

We're about to move, so why spend the money on this?

This house still needs to be rented out, right?

Saves you the trouble of worrying about the keys.

Once we move to the new house, I'll install a smarter one for you.

Pupil recognition.

Smart. Always talking about smart this and that.

I tell you, with all this smart tech, there's no warmth anymore.

Like before, we could still

play mahjong or poker and such.

Now well, we don't meet up. Everyone is on their phone.

Can you really play mahjong or poker on a phone?

You still have to meet up to brag, apply penalties and stuff.

What has it come to?

Mr. An, let's keep up with the times. Technology changes life.

Don't go changing my life just yet.

You've fed the fish?

I haven't.

Won't my fish starve to death?

I fed them. I did.

Why did you scare me?

Chen Guangpu, hurry up.

Right away. Don't rush me.

Chen Guangpu, you've been occupying the bathroom all morning.

Come on in.

What do you mean? I must have a job to use the bathroom?

What are you doing? Shaving for an interview?

Only you're not interviewing. What do you plan to do?

I manage finances. I have so many funds making money for me here.

This is not stepping out of the house... Why is it green?

You've lost it all without leaving the house.

It's fine. That's finance for you. You have to be aware of the risks,

ups and downs, rises and falls, and reds and greens. I'm used to it.

Change that green shirt for me. I can't stand the color green.

Your life is a bit 'green' right now, isn't it?

What happened to you last night?

It's none of your business.

He was throwing up all night.

What? Don't butt in.

It's in the past. This matter is over.

This woman can never appear in my life again.

Her name is not to be mentioned, and this green shirt is not to be worn.

Lemons are also forbidden from now on. Got it?

Fried dough sticks, thank you.

I've bitten into it.

I don't care.

Isn't this He Xindi?

What's a big guy like you doing watching face cleansing and skincare?

So men don't wash their faces?

Let me tell you some gossip.

What gossip?

He Xindi has a boyfriend now, and he's very rich. You have no chance.

You don't know that.

Come on, give me another sip of Meco, thank you.

You really are something.

I choked.

Nice.

You came here early in the morning just for this?

Is this a small matter? I just lack evidence.

I still haven't found solid proof of his cheating.

I didn't find his mistress, you know?

I wanted to sneak a peek at his phone.

But I couldn't get the password right.

You're not thinking of having me hack Chen Xuan's phone, are you?

Isn't it your major?

Sis, that's called hacking. What's my major in college?

Internet big data analysis. Do you see any relation between the two?

What does it mean? Isn't it all just programming stuff or something?

No, hacking into other people's phones and peeking at them

are actions of privacy invasion. Know your laws.

You have to help me find evidence. I can't let them off easily.

I need solid evidence for this argument.

In a word, are you going to help or not?

Phone.

Alright, just add this person called 'Peach Rabbit'.

Just go and ask directly. Reveal your identity and that's it.

Who is this? How did you get her WeChat?

Let me replay it for you, alright?

(Chen Xuan's personal page) Click on Chen Xuan's game page.

(Peach Rabbit) And he's been playing with this person.

He plays the shooter role, and Peach Rabbit plays support.

Think about it, playing games together in the middle of the night.

There must be something.

(He Xindi) Go back to his short video page, see?

Every post has comments from one person.

(Drama Queen, Murder Mystery Games) Although her ID isn't Peach Rabbit,

(Meinai) there is a rabbit emoji.

Remember this girl's face.

Click on the name you just saw.

(Meinai) The home page of her short videos.

Does she look exactly the same?

Indeed she does.

(Drama Queen, Murder Mystery Games) All pictures of Murder Mystery Games.

Wasn't that recent post by Chen Xuan also about Murder Mystery Games?

So the two of them met through playing Murder Mystery Games.

They haven't known each other long, but they play together at night.

And short video comments, and Murder Mystery Games group photos.

Definitely her.

Her WeChat.

Awesome!

Watch how I deal with this pair of toads.

Well played.
