Original subtitles

I'm a little nervous. I hope it'll be fine

I'm nervous, too

Xiangting

We're filming soon. What are you doing here? Let's go

Why do you look so pale?

We need to touch up your make-up

How can you go on TV like this? Come on

Go touch up your make-up. I'll go first

Shuyu, I have something to tell you

To let you witness the moment the jinxed guy has a happy ending,

I've set up a special occasion to confess my love to Xiangting

I hope it'll break your curse of dying alone

Actually...

Are you nervous?

Take a deep breath and relax

You'll get what you want

So which female guest will this rose go to tonight?

The stage is yours

Cam One, stand by, close-up

James' final choice is No. 2

Congratulations

Please come to the centre of the stage

Cam Two, on Two

Of course, the match is not finalized yet

It's time to confess your love

James, the floor is yours

I fell for you the first time I saw you

I was not really listening to the other five female guests

Yours were the only words I could focus on

I hope we can take it to the next stage

Will you go out with me?

Thank you for choosing me

I think you are sunny and cheerful,

the type many girls go for

I believe a date with you...

would be wonderful

I will

It's a match! Congrats!

I wish you a trouble-free and happy relationship

EP

Bro Liang, move on to the special segment

OK, viewers, before our show ends tonight,

we have a surprise, or an Easter egg for you

Our professional matchmaker Lunar will matchmake her special guest here,

and the target is one of the five female guests onstage

Will we have a match? Let's welcome them to the stage

Hi, everyone, the man next to me,

is the producer of The Destined One, Yang Dingyi

He is here for one of our female guests

And that is our No. 3, Wang Xiangting

Xiangting! Let's have Dingyi give his rose to Xiangting

Xiangting has previously been a guest on The Destined One

Somehow, her fate intertwined with Dingyi's

Now the red thread is tied. I believe they will have a happy ending

Now the red thread is tied. Is it a match? Dingyi, the floor is yours

Xiangting, I remember we first met at the pastry shop

Your cake was delicious

Years later, we met again at the pastry shop,

and you lent me your jacket

I fell for you at that instant

I think we were destined to meet

I was destined to fall for you

I want to take care of you and protect you from now on

Do you want to be with me?

I do

Great! We have a match

We have another match tonight

Good things do come in pairs!

Ending

I wish you a wonderful relationship

Thanks for watching, everyone

See you same time next week on The Destined One. Goodnight

Best wishes to you

Thank you. Thank you to all the female guests

Thank you to our matchmakers. Thank you. Good job

Congratulations -Thanks

I'm so happy you're finally together

Please be happy

Don't worry. We'll be happy

Go find your own happiness now

Of course

We'll get going

Bye...

Congratulations on finding a match

Enjoy your date

Thank you. Bye -Bye

Violet, see you on Saturday. I'll pick you up

See you on Saturday night

Lunar, we're going out for dinner

It's to celebrate bringing Bro Yi and Xiangting together. Are you coming?

No, I have plans. Enjoy -But...

Violet

Sorry for stopping you

May I ask...

if you really plan to go on a date with James?

Of course. He's a catch. Why would I pass up this opportunity?

Do you really like him or are there other reasons?

Isn't finding a potential match the aim of this show?

But I saw a red thread between you and another person

You really saw it? Did you see who that was?

No, but I'm sure it's not James

And there's a knot in your red thread

It means there's an unresolved issue

You can tell me. Maybe I can help you

Since you like him, and he likes you,

you should treasure this relationship

Don't throw it away

If you're always giving and doing things for him,

if you always love him more than he loves you,

what would you do?

You can't make comparisons like that

When you love someone, you can't lose yourself in it,

or else, no matter who leaves, the other one will be left with nothing

Besides, nothing comes from unrequited love

Maybe you can try this

Tell each other your true feelings

You have to learn to love yourself more because you deserve to be loved

Thanks. I'll give it some thought

OK, if you have any problems, you can talk to me any time

Here, master,

let your disciple serve you

Good man. I'm preparing tonight's highlights

Are you sure you want to do that?

Sure, stop bothering me. Talk to my future sis-in-law

OK, here comes the real celebration

Are you ready?

You're good

One each -OK

Here's to Bro and my future sis-in-law officially getting together

Cheers...

My future sis-in-law,

if Bro bullies you,

tell me, I'll whack him

Don't worry. Dingyi's really good to me

What sister wants to whack her brother all the time?

It's "putting righteousness above family loyalty"

I love master's sense of justice

No one knows me better than my disciple

Come on, let's drink

Enough -Cheers

Cheers...

This feels good

Lady, get in line if you're waiting to use the washroom

I want to stand here. You have a problem with that?

We need order here, OK?

If everyone cuts in line like you,

when would people at the back get their turn?

Yeah, get in line

Go on

My disciple is finally acting like a man

I am a man

OK

-Happy birthday... -Be careful. Watch the steps

There's more. Let's go

To me... -Let's go home

I don't want to go home -Bro Yi, this way

Xiangting -Where are you going?

Round two? Let's drink -OK, let's go

Take care of Xiao-mi. I'll take your brother home

OK, no problem

Let's have some fun

First, learn how to walk. Follow me example

You have to walk like this

If you want to be attractive, you have to learn to dance

You have to...

Do a pelvic rotation

Sexy pelvic rotations

Then use your legs

Show off your assets

You were so macho back there, but now you're acting like a sissy

Don't call me a sissy

I am a man

You have to be happier than me -Watch out

Then my sacrifice will not be in vain

Happy, be happier than me...

Dingyi, stop it

Shuyu...

I've honoured my promise to you

Shuyu...

You have to be happier than me

I just got your call saying you were coming and here you are already

Tell me, how did you solve Dingyi's problem?

I can't tell you. I've to respect his privacy

I didn't ask you to divulge info private to him

Just tell me, is his problem solved or not?

Sorry, as a doctor...

Don't claim doctor-patient privilege

I'm worried that I've made a wrong match and ruined his happiness

What wrong match?

Don't ask so much

Just tell me,

why did Dingyi hug a girl he liked yesterday without triggering his BO?

You're asking me when you know the answer?

I know the answer?

So I guessed right?

His BO problem isn't solved

He just doesn't have feelings for her any more?

Do you really not know or do you not want to face the truth?

Can't you tell whom Dingyi likes now?

Are you kidding? How could it be me?

You can't see the answer when it's right in front of you,

and you claim you can see red threads?

A matchmaker is destined to die alone

I can see red threads of others but not my own

Besides, it'd only appear if I had feelings for him, too

Sometimes you don't need a red thread to know if you like someone or not

You should ask your heart

If he's in your heart, please be honest with yourself

You're still the same

You know what you don't like

But when you meet someone you do like, you can't see the truth

Show me your pink pig -No

Just a peek

Xiangting, what are you doing here?

Hide inside

I thought if I brought Dingyi and Xiangting together,

I could be together with Kent

But now I'm making it more complicated

I thought a Scorpio was your ideal match

Who knew that an Aquarius liked you, too?

Your love life is really complicated

Yeah, what should I do now?

If you like that Aquarius, just get together with him

That would solve everything, right?

What do you mean?

Your solution to the dying-alone curse...

is to find a partner for the jinxed guy

Now that he has feelings for you,

if you two can be together, then you'll have completed the mission

No

I don't want to hurt Xiangting

Whether he did it for me or not, he'd already confessed his love to Xiangting

I can't break them up

They don't have a red thread. There's no point staying together

Just because they don't have one now doesn't mean they won't have one

Feelings can grow

Feelings can, but not love

If an Aquarius can sacrifice his own happiness for you,

it shows he loves you very much

How could he fall in love with Xiangting again?

Maybe meeting Mr Right at the wrong time...

has to remain a cause for regret

So you have feelings for both guys?

I don't know

Here

Have some water

You OK?

How are you feeling?

My throat's a bit dry. Don't be so worried

Who's worried? It was just a reflex

If you say so

Dad, your meds -Shuze

It's time for my meds?

Why haven't you invited Ethan and Zhirong home for meals lately?

Zhirong has been busy tending her shop

Is there trouble in the shop?

Don't worry, we can manage

If you need help, just let us know, OK?

You should rest. I'll go now -OK

Don't worry so much

Focus on getting well

I don't have much time left

I feel better when I can still care for them

Why say something so depressing?

Stop worrying about the kids

They have me, don't they?

That's why I'm worried

What do you mean by that? Tell me what you mean

There's no need for words right now

Shuyu said Zhirong's pastry shop had been ordered to close

What's the situation now?

The police are still investigating. But Zhirong is innocent

She should be fine

That's good

What's wrong?

Because of the forced closure, Zhirong has lost lots of ingredients

The rent isn't refundable either, so she...

She needs money? How much?

$30,000?

It's OK if you're unable to help

As the eldest son, I feel ashamed I can't afford Dad's medical expenses

I don't want to add to your burden

It's OK

But I can only lend you $20,000. Is it OK?

I'll write you a cheque later

Mum, thank you. I'll pay you back as soon as possible

I am a man

Bro Yi -What?

Listen...

Was master happy when she got home yesterday?

Did she mention what happened between her and me?

What?

Yichun didn't say anything when she got home

Nothing out of the ordinary

Xiao-mi, take a look at this nail extension

Do you know whose this is?

Let me see

What's the problem?

Isn't it Zhen Qing's?

I found it when I was tidying her locker

She'd never use such cheap stuff

I suspect it was left by the person who set her up

No, this is probably Violet's

She always uses this colour

Violet?

She and Zhen Qing barely know each other

Why would her nail extension be in Zhen Qing's locker?

Could there be more to the set-up than meets the eye?

Kang was framed?

Kang is an honest chap

Honestly, I didn't believe he'd betray us for money

I know, you should talk to Xiangting

Kang went to see her before he left

Dingyi, why are you so anxious to see me?

Did Kang talk to you before he left?

Did he tell you anything?

He wanted to say goodbye,

and asked me to thank you for taking care of him

He hoped you'd keep producing good shows. He'll keep supporting you

That was it? Nothing else?

Is something wrong?

Zhen Qing's assistant found a nail extension in Zhen Qing's locker

It can't be Kang's

So we suspect the culprit was someone else

Do you know whose nail extension it is?

Xiao-mi thought it was Violet's

I think Violet has been acting weird lately

The way she looks at Kent is odd

You suspect Kent had something to do with it?

I don't know

Of course I hope I'm wrong. I'm so worried

Why?

Because of Shuyu. She's dating Kent now

If Kent's a liar or has ulterior motives,

she could be in danger

She's only good at helping others

She doesn't suspect a thing when it's someone she likes

And she said she was going to China with Kent

I'm even more worried now

What are you going to do?

I need to get to the bottom of this. I can't let any harm come to Shuyu

Take it back. I won't accept it

We're friends

How can I do nothing when I know you're in trouble?

I really can't accept it. I still owe you more than $10,000

Just take it. It's not a lot. Pay me back when you can

$30,000? -$30,000

This is a lot of money

If this case goes to court,

I can introduce you to a lawyer friend of mine

I can't take your money

Shuze?

Take it back. I'll find a solution

I really appreciate it

Shuze

Yan Shuze

Why are you leaving?

It's not a lot, but it should help -Thanks

What's wrong now?

Leave me alone. Go back to Steven

Don't decline his help because of me

What do you mean by that?

Maybe we shouldn't get back together

Don't let me get in the way of your happiness. It's not worth it

I'm the one who decides if it's worth it or not

Don't use me as an excuse for your cowardice

Yes, I'm useless and I'm a coward

I can't help you at all when you need me most

I don't deserve you

Don't waste your time on me

I'm so stupid

I thought you'd changed all these years, that you wouldn't give up easily

Yet you still let me down

Can you please reconsider?

I understand your situation, but now I'm...

OK, I'll move out as soon as possible

Was that the landlady?

She wants to take the shop back

Sorry, it was all my fault. I didn't know my dad would do such a thing

It wasn't your fault

I've come to realize one thing

No matter the problem, you have to deal with it yourself

Don't rely on other people

They'll invariably let you down

Dad, Mum

Dad, Mum -You're back

I'm starving. Can we eat now?

Wait a little while longer. Your dad's craving herbal chicken

I got Shujing to buy it. We can eat when he's back

What's the occasion?

Caveman left his cave to buy a herbal chicken?

This is evolution. He'll be a normal person soon

Come on, let's wait inside

Shuyu, how's the business lately?

Very good. There are more people using our matchmaking service

Two to three couples make appointments to

consult about their marriage prospects every day

That's good. We really benefit from your fame

Shuze, I went to the bank this morning...

and saw that you didn't cash the cheque I gave you

Didn't you give it to Zhirong?

She didn't take the cheque

Why? I thought she was having a cash flow problem

Is her cash flow problem solved?

Maybe someone else had helped her

Zhirong needs you most now

How can you act like it's none of your business?

I want to help, but I can't

Love counts for nothing. Money is the only solution

Shuze, how could you think like that?

Zhirong might look strong,

but she needs your support and your help

It's just like how your dad and I were like before

We thought sorrows were like eating bitter gourd

Better to eat it alone than share the bitterness

But the bitterness doesn't change. Why not deal with it together?

The knot in the red thread between Zhirong and you is finally set loose

You should treasure the relationship. Why are you giving up?

How many times do you want us to help you?

You should answer it. Seems like someone wants to talk to you urgently

Shuyu, I need to talk to you. I'll be at your place in five minutes

Oh no

I'll go back to my room. Don't tell Kent I'm here

Shuze -Brother

Is Shuyu home?

She's not back yet. Maybe you should come another day

I'm worried about her

She hasn't replied to my texts or taken my calls these two days

Maybe her phone isn't working

OK, then I'll wait for her inside

You want to come in?

Kent -Auntie

Are you looking for Shuyu?

Sorry, she said she'd be staying over at her good friend Mimi's place tonight

Yes

I'll drop by some other day then

Some other day then

Bye

Kent's gone

What's going on between you and him?

One minute you were telling me not to give up,

the next you bolted as fast as you could

It's a long story. I'll tell you about it another day

Your dad wants to see you both in his study

Dad, what have we done wrong? Why are you making us write this?

Do you remember the meaning of this character?

Yes, "zu" means feet and "zhong" means focus

Putting them together...

means you have to walk with a focus to reach the end

Yes, the reason I asked you to write the character "zhong"...

is to remind you to not run away from what's right

No matter what difficulties you encounter,

you have to be strong

You've to push ahead, not back down. Do you understand?

Yes

I bought sushi. Let's eat

Just leave it there

What are you doing?

Texting Shuyu. I need her to say yes to going to China with me

Mr Geng wants an answer soon

James looks the soft-spoken type, but he is quite the comedian

It's so hilarious

I thought you'd already gone on a date with him.

Why are you still in touch with him?

It was a great date. That's why he's asking me out again

You'd better not go too far. Otherwise you'll ruin our plan again

-You're only worried about your plan? -Of course

It's not that. I don't want you to do something stupid

But this time you used James to get out of the show

I like it that you just went with the flow

You're not worried that I went out with James

because I actually like him?

Would you do that?

Don't be silly. I have confidence in you and myself

Hello? Mr Geng

Sure. I can talk. Go ahead

Understood

Hi, Violet

These are for you

Thank you. What are you doing here?

You said you hadn't eaten yet when you replied to text

So I thought I could come to eat with you

Would you like that?

Sure. Where are we going?

I know there's a good Japanese restaurant near your place

You'll love it

Let's go -Sure

I've been telling you...

how I wish to be with Kent

And now?

All I can think of is Yang Dingyi now

Dad's right

I should face up to my problems with courage,

not run away from them

If you're not the one in my heart, I should let you know

Hi, what a coincidence

I'm going to have dinner

With Xiangting?

She's free, so I asked her out to dinner

Good. You're finally together after all that you've been through so much

You should cherish her

What about you? Going to meet Kent?

I have something to tell him

I hear he's going to China. Are you going with him?

He did ask me

I think China offers a great opportunity to go to China

You'll be a stranger in a foreign land. Be careful

Make sure your associates are reliable

Don't be taken advantage of

I know

You should go now. Don't keep Xiangting waiting

Bye then

Bye

(Mum)

Mum, what's up?

Shuyu, come back immediately

Your great-aunt's here. She has something important to tell you

OK, I'll come home now

Sorry, Kent, something came up. I'll meet you later

Xiangting, what's wrong?

Why do you want to meet me at the airport?

Are you going abroad?

I already knew

Knew what?

I knew that the girl you like is Shuyu

I can tell just by how you smell

Xiangting, I'm sorry

Give me more time

You don't have to apologize

Because I've done you wrong, too

I knew Kent's true colours

He's been lying to Shuyu

Kang was used by him, too

I also found out Kent is very close to Violet

Then...

Why didn't you say something?

I was afraid of losing you

If you had known the truth, you'd have gone to Shuyu

I know I was being selfish

I knew you were in love with Shuyu, but I still tried to keep you

Now I hate myself when I look in the mirror

Xiangting...

Dingyi, let's break up

I shouldn't have yearned for a love that never belonged to me

Now I want to pursue my dream

You should go pursue yours, OK?
