[Episode 23]

Come on and catch me, Mommy.

Young spring welcomes everyone.

Nightingale,

I can hear you sing.

Come on, Mommy.

Your melody is so beautiful yet so sad.

Your soft whimper resonates continually.

Your song is filled with passion.

Spring has arrived.

Flowers bloom on the trees.

Catch me, Mommy.

Come on.

In the clear blue sky,

rose-colored clouds float.

The amorous sunshine is

gently chasing butterflies.

[Tender Light]

Well... Allow me.

I bought you baozi and congee.

Have some before you go.

No, thanks. I'm going to see Wanwan
at the hospital.

It's going to be a long wait.

Won't you have a baozi...

I don't need

your childish and perfunctory concern.

I need to see Wanwan now

or I'll lose my mind!

Well, Nan Ya?

How did it go?

Did you find Wanwan?

The doctor said

it was already past time for therapy.

Perhaps he brought Wanwan
to another hospital?

You may go back now.

I'm going to the law firm.

[Divorce Complaint]
Here's the paperwork.

You can only

sue him now,

but it'll take a while

before the court hears your case.

Xu Yi

must have consulted
a very experienced lawyer,

judging by his behavior.

What do you mean?

He'll most likely hide your daughter

for a very long time.

There's an unwritten rule

that whoever spends more time
with the child

will get the custody.

When you were living in the house
co-owned by you and Xu Yi,

you did not forbid Xu Yi
from seeing her.

So technically,

you did not raise her alone.

But things are different now.

Ms. Nan Ya!

Zhou Luo, there she is.

Thanks.

Hello? Chen Ling.

Please hear me out, Chen Ling.

Please, Chen Ling.

Please...

Please tell Xu Yi

to take Wanwan to see the doctor today.

Tell him I won't fight

with him anymore,

as long as he brings her
to the hospital.

I have to go to work.
I don't have time to listen to you.

Chen Ling...

Mommy, I want Mommy...

Wanwan.

Wanwan... Chen Ling, let me
speak with Wanwan.

Chen Ling!

Poor Nan Ya.

I feel so bad for her.

[Divorce, how is custody determined]
I mustn't end up like that.

I must get into university.

I heard she had good grades

when she was
in Qingshui No. 1 High School.

How come she didn't get into university?

My sister told me,

after her dad passed away,

her stepmom forbade her from studying

and forced her to work at a factory.

But we're just students.

What can we do?

Yeah, what can we do?

This is none of our business anyway.

My mom said,

no matter

how much they fought and argued,

they're still husband and wife.

Their daughter's custody
is their business.

There is no right or wrong.

It's not up to us outsiders

to judge.

Is that what you think?

Yeah.

Suppose if Chen Jun and you got married,

he abused you every day,

but you couldn't divorce him

because he threatened you
with your child,

what would you do?

How dare he!

Do you have a death wish?

Let me go.

You're still doing this at this time?

If you ask me,

we should tie him up,
take him to somewhere secluded,

and beat him up.

Ask him to hand over the kid.

And you want to be a policeman?

Kidnapping is illegal, you know?

Chen Ling.

This is our problem.

Let's not involve the child, okay?

Don't make a scene at the hospital.

I beg you, please tell me
where Wanwan is.

Haven't you caused me enough trouble?

Chen Ling, tell me where Wanwan is.

Please, Chen Ling.

Can't you see I'm working?

Wait outside.

Xu Yi,

where's Wanwan?

Where's Wanwan?

Where's Wanwan?

Xu Yi...

Where are you hiding her, Xu Yi?

I told you.

It's no good

fighting me.

Where's Wanwan?

Where's Wanwan?

So, are they

on good terms again?

Let's not follow Xu Yi.

Nan Yi is so stupid.

I think

they'll never be separated
from each other.

Let's go.

Come on, let's go.

I heard Nan Ya

yielded to Xu Yi

and Wanwan also came back.

Yeah.

At least she got her child back.

You'll never understand
how a mother feels.

Being unable to see the child

is like dying.

So what if she has
to suffer a little for her daughter?

That's why I was saying

that Nan Ya couldn't divorce Xu Yi

that easily.

Businessmen

are cunning.

Besides, her daughter is seriously ill.

She needs money.

Escaping from him

won't be that easy.

Unless

Xu Yi is dead.

What nonsense are you talking about?

That way, life would be easier.

I'm done.

But you hardly had my new dish.

That was quick.

You may eat more, then.

Well?

Have you thought it through?

Yes.

Then tell us.

What happened that night?

I saw Xu Yi going after Nan Ya
with an axe.

Nan Ya accidentally killed Xu Yi.

Still won't confess, Zhou Luo?

We're trying to help you here.

We're giving you a chance to confess.

You have to plead guilty

before you can get a lighter sentence,

do you understand?

Confess?

To what crime?

You know what you did!

Let's look at some photos,

shall we?

This is a photo of Xu Yi
meeting Liu Changshui.

Did you take this?

No.

Liar!

Who took the photo, then?

The camera shop owner identified you.

Zhang Qingli and the others
also admitted it.

Why won't you confess?

It's because you're guilty!

The camera shop owner? Which one?

Did he identify me himself?

When? Do you have the receipt?

Surely you used a fake name
to conceal your identity.

What fake name did I use?

Zhou Luo,

you can use a fake name,

but you can't change how you look.

If you insist that's the truth,

there's nothing I can say.

But I didn't take those photos.

Besides, what could I gain

from photographing them?

Because if Xu Yi ends up in jail,

you can be together with Nan Ya.

There's nothing wrong
with pitying Nan Ya,

but you've chosen
the wrong path. Got it?

What you said seems to make sense.

But not everything in this world

can be proven to be true

simply based

on logic alone.

Don't play word games with me!

Zhou Luo

did not personally
get the photos printed.

He knows we don't have direct evidence.

It won't be easy to deal with him.

Without direct evidence,
if we keep interrogating him,

it will give him a chance
to understand the situation.

But if we don't interrogate him,

we cannot find a breakthrough.

Zhou Luo.

Has Nan Ya

told you about what happened
between her and Hu Lifan?

No.

Well, do you know

Hu Lifan had raped Nan Ya before?

Well,

Xu Yi was not a bad person

in the beginning.

He murdered Hu Lifan

for Nan Ya, didn't he?

He had no grudge against him.

Right?

In order to get away with it,

he dumped the body into the lake
on the outskirts.

When you followed

Xu Yi and Liu Changshui

to the restaurant,

do you remember there was a way up
to the mountain next to it?

It was him!

Chen is really good at interrogating.

I think Zhou Luo

may have threatened Xu Yi.

Do you remember?

What does this have to do with me?

It indeed has nothing to do with you.

Well,

I just have some advice for you.

Don't get yourself

mixed up in complicated love affairs.

Look what Xu Yi had done.

Can you say he didn't love Nan Ya?

I'm not the same as him.

With my decades of experience
in handling cases,

once you try to cover up a crime,

there's no turning back.

Take Xu Yi for example.

He used to be quite mild-mannered.

He was from a rich family, too.

Now look where it led him.

Two people died,

and then there was the bridge case.

Zhou Luo,

think about your mother.

She's worried sick about you.

How much more can she take?

Right? Already twice.

You almost went to university twice.

Sure,

it's impossible to go to university now,

but at least try to get yourself
out of jail earlier.

Then, you can see her again.

Take your time, sort it out.

I understand how you feel,

all right?

Think it through,

okay?

There's no hurry.

We can wait.

Think about it.

I saw Xu Yi going after Nan Ya
with an axe.

Nan Ya accidentally killed Xu Yi.

Take him away.

Wanwan,

look.

Do you like the new toy I bought you?

Here, take it.

Let me hold her.

Wanwan.

Found your daughter, Nan Ya?

Yes.

Just a little blunder.

She was with me all along.

I took her to the zoo.

Nan Ya,

is Wanwan all right?

No worries, Guixiang.
She was with me all long.

It was a misunderstanding.

As long as Wanwan is fine.

She's fine.

Everything's all right now?

Yeah.

Isn't this fun?

Do you think

Zhou Luo

and Nan Ya...

He's been absent for two days.

Besides, he's been cold

and quiet.

Cut it out.

You girls don't understand men.

Zhou Luo must be depressed.

If I try to help someone

but end up looking like a fool,

I'd surely be devastated.

What makes you so sure?

Because we're bros.

Do you know what I'm saying?

Like how you'd tell Qingli everything.

I'm not messing around
with you girls here.

You girls are always womanishly fussy
and suspicious.

Geez.

What's on Zhou Luo's mind?

I have no clue.

I'd just ask him if I were you.

But I'm afraid our friendship
will be ruined.

Then so be it.

Don't be afraid.

Bingbing.

Have you ever

liked someone?

You like him so much that you're happy

just being friends?

What's the matter?

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

There, there. Don't cry.

Okay.

[Yishan Second People's Hospital]

Here's your prescription.

Thank you, Dr. Jiang.

Don't mention it.
Be careful with your diet.

You registered in your own name?

I couldn't register in Wanwan's name.

She has too much medical debt.

Can you give her a check-up?

I'll get the medicine elsewhere.

Sorry,

it's against the rules.

I'm only allowed to treat patients
registering in their own names.

I understand, but can you please
make an exception?

We've encountered some trouble.

Xu Yi ran out of all our money.

Hence, Wanwan's medical bills
couldn't be paid for such a long time.

My daughter's health is at stake here.

I'm trying my best to raise money.

I really can't help you.

Rules are rules.

I can only treat patients
registering in their own names.

Okay. Next patient.

Yes, you. Come in.

Please make an exception.

I really can't.

I'm having random pains.

Fret not.

Mr. Wang.

Nan Ya, there you are.

You're just in time.

Look.

I have a new shipment from Guangdong.

They're all top brands
from Hong Kong, China.

Look.

Check out the workmanship and quality.

What do you think?

They're pretty good.

But I won't take them this time.

Really?

Are you kidding?

The other customers would kill
for these.

I'm only offering them to you
because you've been

a regular customer.

Actually, I'm here to ask you,

do you have a job offer here?

Looking for a job?

Strapped for cash?

I do have a job offer.

Several days ago,

Director Pu from the Children's Palace

placed an order for a batch of costumes
for the children's performance.

If I hire you,

I could save on design costs.

The question is, can you handle it
by yourself?

How many pieces do you need?

Five sets, 100 pieces.

Due first week next month.

Five pieces a day...

I'll need 20 days or so.

Are you sure?

Don't drop the ball, okay?

No problem. You can count on me.

You're really hard up,

aren't you?

These are the measurements.

Take it and do your work.

Thank you, sir.

Be obedient
at Madam Guixiang's place, okay?

Take this and pay the medical bills.

I can't accept this, Guixiang.

Take it.

Well, you've done more than enough

by babysitting Wanwan.

Just take it as I lend it to you.

Wanwan needs treatment.

I wouldn't lend you money otherwise.

I...

I'll pay you back a bit next month.

Take your time.

Just pay me back before Zhou Luo
goes to university.

All right?

I had some savings

but Xu Yi got into trouble
and took them all.

Sorry.

Don't say that.

Everyone has their own struggle.

What are you spinning around for?

Say,

I have some work to do tonight.

Would you like to be my little helper?

Sure.

Can you count?

Sure.

How clever!

If so,

can you help me count bubblegums,

chocolates, and toys?

Sure.

Good girl.

Say goodbye to Mommy.

Goodbye.

Listen to Madam Guixiang, okay?

Okay.

What a good girl.

Guixiang, I have to go now.

No worries.

Come on.

Let's get to work, shall we?

Sure.

I'm so happy having you accompany me.

Good.

No problem.

100 pieces?

Yes.

All right.

Here's 3,000 yuan.
You can have a count.

No need. Thanks.

You're welcome.

Bye.

Enough!

Honey, I'm home.

I know you're still mad about
what happened at the train station.

But that was because you were trying

to run away with Wanwan.

I'm even willing

to humiliate myself.

Why?

Because I love you.

You are so shameless.

Am I wrong?

I hid Wanwan

because I wanted you to be anxious.

The bridge case

is making me scorched, so please.

If it weren't for Wanwan,

you'd be in prison right now.

If you have any humanity as a father,

you should let us go.

Don't bring that up.

It was me

who saved you from that jerk.

It was me

who married you
despite my family's disapproval.

Whatever you've eaten and used

is of the highest quality.

Have I done anything wrong?

Yes, I hit you.

So what?

Did I break your limbs?

Did I cripple you?

Did you know

how I've come through all these years?

Ever since that night,

I could never sleep properly.

I've dreamed many times

that I woke up by that lake.

Do you know what it feels like?

You must have forgotten.

Think about it.

Seeing the lake

will remind you

of why we're together, right?

It's a beautiful night.

Why don't we

go to the lake?

We might even

find something good in the lake.
Let's go.

Let go of me, Xu Yi!

Let's go.

Nan Ya.

Look how I am now.

Don't you think you should

share a bit of my pain?

Aren't you convinced

that how much I love you?

I can't stand it.

I can't stand you talking to other men

and laughing with them.

They don't deserve to see your smile.

You should ignore them.

Share all your laughter

and your happiness

with me only.

I just want you to belong to me only,

okay?

I'm sorry that I hit you.

I promise I'll never hit you again.

Let's be together

happily ever after,

just you and me.

Xu Yi,

I'm sick of seeing you like this.

Aren't you tired of pretending?

I knew all about you

and Chen Ling.

We're just...

Don't tell me
that you don't love Chen Ling at all.

It'll only make me despise you more.

Xu Yi,

I don't want to be entangled anymore.

I've brought Wanwan back to you.

Don't ever think
about getting a divorce.

Stop.

If you dare go upstairs, why run away?

I don't know what to say.

I know what you're going to say.

You do?

I appreciate you helping me
to find Wanwan.

But please

stay out of my business after this.

How can you say that
with such an understatement?

If you go back to Xu Yi,

your problems will never end.

Is that what you want?

To suffer, endure,

and surrender?

Who are you to question me?

As a...

a friend who's concerned about you.

We are never friends.

If you say so.

Are you disappointed in me?

It's okay.

Just leave.

I don't have the right
to be disappointed in you.

I just can't stand

to see you suffer

while I'm living my life
easily and happily.

On the long road of your life,

you will realize

it's meaningless to act a hero.

You cannot afford someone else' life,

especially someone
with whom you don't share a future.

The tragedy of men comes from arrogance.

You say I have a long life ahead of me.

But how can I face myself?

Leaving someone I love

in the lurch,

choosing

the easy path

and being a coward,

does such a person deserve to be alive?

That's how most people live.

But it's not how I want to live.

If there's nothing I can do,

or if I am not brave enough

to protect the girl I love,

I'd rather die.

Zhou Luo,
do you have any misunderstanding?

These are all your adolescent fantasies.

I'm not interested in you.

And I have no feelings for you.

I don't want to play house with you.

Do you understand?

There's nothing you can do to help me.

You should worry about yourself.

You got expelled,

and now you're in cram school.

Think about your future.

Don't pester me again.

Trying to save me?

Who do you think you are?

Leave now.

Leave!

The truth is, you do fancy me.

Don't you?

It's not that you don't care about me,

or you're not interested in me.

You're just afraid

of implicating me.

You're afraid

I'd get criticized
and blamed because of you.

You're afraid of ruining my future.

You're afraid I cannot stand
the pressure of life

and suffer

due to our age gap.

I know

you only said those things

because you care about me.

If you didn't like me,

you wouldn't feel afraid

and try to push me away.

If you didn't like me,

you'd simply decline my help

politely,

instead of trying to irritate me

and make me feel ashamed,
upset, and embarrassed.

You've tried so hard to keep me away

that I think

you're not just afraid
of getting into trouble.

Why me?

We are just strangers chatting
with each other a few times.

Because you're the first one

to make me feel ashamed.

Can this be a reason
for falling in love with someone?

I had never felt ashamed before,

even when I was expelled.

I thought I did nothing wrong.

Until that day

at the shop...

When I first saw you,
I was only infatuated.

But when I saw you swimming
under the moonlight in the winter,

I knew

it was more than an infatuation.

When you told me you were leaving,

I was so sad that it felt like death.

But I could do nothing.

Because I had nothing,

and I could do nothing.

Later on, you decided to stay.

I promised myself I would
protect you with my life.

Otherwise,

I'd never be able to live with myself.

I want you to be happy.

Or at least be free.

If you don't want to be with me,

that's fine.

But please don't go back to him.

Compromise won't lead to happiness.
