[A River Runs Through It]

[Episode 23: Can I have happiness if I try my best? Part I]

What's with you and Cheng Lang?

I'm talking to you.

Nothing.

Are you still saying it's nothing?

You look like you want to eat him.

You two are attached at the hip usually.

Now, you consciously avoid him.

Only women can make your friendship break like this.

Perhaps... did you have a change of heart and like Lin You?

Xia Xiaoju likes Cheng Lang.

So you went after him like you ate a bomb these days?

Bro, is your brain full of formaldehyde?

Cheng Lang doesn't like Xia Xiaoju.

He likes Lin You.

You guys can't be considered rivals.

Besides, Lin You just broke up with her boyfriend.

What does that mean?

It means Cheng Lang has a second chance.

At this time, shouldn't you go and comfort Xia Xiaoju's broken spirit,

instead of going against Cheng Lang?

Cheng Lang, you're here.

I'm going to make a phone call.

Talk it out with him.

Talk it out with him!

Take a seat, take a seat.

Have an apple.

Say it. What's your problem with me?

Why would I have a problem with you?

Then are you upset because your hemophobia treatment is not going well?

It's going quite well.

Then what's with you and Xia Xiaoju the last two days?

Especially Xia Xiaoju. She was so angry at me that day.

I think just for a movie, it's a bit overboard, right?

What do you mean overboard?

Xia Xiaoju has always been frugal.

It wasn't easy to invite you—

Invite us to watch a movie.

Yet you didn't go and wasted her movie.

Do you have no idea how expensive a movie ticket is?

Is it because of that?

Of course, it's because of that!

Did you forget? When Xia Xiaoju was in her senior year,

her shoe was already torn to that state, but she still didn't get a new pair.

Now you wasted her ticket.

How could she not feel bad for her money?

But I keep thinking there's something else about it.

She get's even angrier whenever I mention Lin You.

Wh-Why?

Is this so hard to explain?

Xia Xiaoju knew Lin You liked Yuan Ancheng.

Plus, she knew they were together for a long time.

But you idiotically cared about Lin You like a fool every day.

Xia Xiaoju was afraid you'd get hurt.

I know what I'm doing.

I'll take care of it.

Xiaoju!

Let's run together.

You're here so early.

I haven't trained in a long time.

I finally know why you like running so much.

Because when you're running, it'll get your mind off those troubles.

You just run with all your heart and soul.

Lin You.

Is there a misunderstanding...

between you and Yuan Ancheng?

No, there's not.

He just called to tell me...

he doesn't like me anymore and wanted to break up.

That's because he's blind.

You've to know that you've suitors lined up from the dance room to the university gate.

That's right.

Would I be afraid that no one likes me?

He doesn't like me because he's blind.

- That's right. Don't take it to heart. - Okay.

Let me dry your tears.

I signed up for the 400 meter race for the Sports Meet.

You're so good at running.

Why don't you join me?

In this case, we can train together every day.

I-I won't be participating.

I recently just occasionally come here to train.

Now, I study at the library every day.

If I don't study hard, I may fail the exams again.

Fine.

[In Patient] [Jiangzhou Hospital]

[Psychological Counseling] [Psychological Consulting Room]

Close your eyes.

Make yourself think about some happy things.

How?

Much better.

Shiyi, do you have something on your mind recently?

- No. - It's fine if you don't want to tell me.

But I still have to remind you.

Your therapy has been rather slow lately.

At this speed,

it'll be hard to recover fully before the anatomy class next semester.

I hope you can clear your mind,

and not let other things disturb your treatment.

I understand, Dr. Gu.

Thank you.

- Is it over? - Yes.

What did the doctor say?

Just like that.

"J-Just like that?" What does that mean?

Like how it used to be.

- If you're not going to say it, then I'll go ask myself. - Hey!

Can't you see that Dr. Gu is busy?

Don't bother him and take up his time.

I'll just tell you, okay?

He said that I was too nervous lately, and asked me to relax a bit.

- Is that it? - That's it.

Wait, relax?

How should you relax?

Well, listening to music or something.

That's easy! Huang Jun can help treat you in the dorm.

Come on. I'd thank him if he doesn't make noise.

I'm very hungry. Let's go eat!

I'll buy you food to thank you. How about it?

Then I want to eat the chicken cutlets from the third canteen.

When it comes to food, your eyes suddenly shine.

Let's go.

Datu, you getting better is the happiest thing that happened to me lately.

Go and grab a spot.

- I have just enough here. - Okay.

I want a serving of balls.

Okay.

What's up?

You look like you're unhappy to see me.

Are you still angry at me?

Not anymore.

I-Is your arm feeling better?

It's already fine.

Xiaoju, Lin You sprained her ankle that day,

and she was very upset.

I was afraid she'd do something dangerous.

So that's why I didn't go to the movie theater.

I'm sorry.

I know. You don't have to explain it to me.

I'm fine now.

Xiaoju, I would like to ask you a favor.

If you're not busy lately, can you spend more time with Lin You?

On the surface, she looks like she's all right,

but she's crying on the inside.

She entered the Sports Meet to vent out her emotions and to get her mind off them.

Her ankle hasn't healed yet either,

so I'm quite worried about her.

I'll accompany her.

Besides, didn't she just break up recently?

You can also go and accompany her.

I will. Thank you, Xiaoju.

Why are you here?

To eat.

What? Am I not welcomed?

Xia Xiaoju, go sit across the table.

I need to talk to Cheng Lang.

Can't you also talk to me while sitting over there?

What... What's wrong?

I want to check your arm.

How can I do that if I'm sitting across from you?

It has recovered rather quickly.

The red mark is almost gone.

It wasn't that serious to begin with.

Then I can put my mind to rest. Let's eat!

Chicken cutlets.

I'm going back to the dorm first.

Don't you want to walk a while longer with us?

No, I'm going back first.

Why is Xiaoju also so emotional these days?

It's what all girls are like.

Let's go and play basketball.

I can't today.

I asked Lin You to do homework together tonight.

How's it going between you and her?

Why are you suddenly asking about this?

As usual.

Not as distant as we used to be yet not that close.

Why is your progress so slow?

I think this is quite nice.

Isn't it good to take things slow?

You talk different since you've started studying philosophy.

You're being all philosophical.

Listen, there are more wolves (boys) than there are meat (girls) in the Computer Science Department.

You don't know how many boys are eyeing Lin You.

You need to work harder!

Stop worrying.

Lin You is not such a casual girl.

How about this? Come to my dorm room tonight.

I'll let Huang Jun teach you.

He's got a way with girls.

You should learn from him.

Shiyi, why do I have a feeling that you've been acting really strange lately?

Why do you care so much about me and Lin You suddenly?

Strange? Strange? What is so strange about it?

I'm just afraid you'd get drunk and sleep with me again.

You need to forget about that incident, okay?

Really?

Jacky Cheung is going to hold a concert here in Jiangzhou? (T/N: Hong Kong singer and one of the "Four Heavenly Kings.")

Why would I lie to you?

He's my idol when I was in junior high school.

I didn't expect that you like Jacky Cheung.

I... I like him so much!

Da Huang.

Taotao.

I'm leaving.

Don't forget that the tickets go on sale the day after tomorrow.

I won't! I won't!

Taotao, let me tell you something.

Jacky Cheung is going to have a concert here in Jiangzhou.

Really?

Really! I'm so happy. Let's go watch it together.

Okay?

Let's talk about it later, okay?

I have something to ask you right now.

What's up?

I found this in your clothes.

Who did you watch the movie with?

I went with Xu Menglu.

Who?

No, don't be like that. I can explain.

Don't be anxious about it first. Let me explain.

It's like this.

At that time, she asked us to go watch a movie.

I thought everyone would be going,

but in the end, I found out it was only her when I got there.

So you watched the movie with her?

O-Of course not!

I told her not to do that again.

Then I turned around and left.

Then why are these tickets with you?

And not only that, the ticket stubs were torn?

What happened was this.

She gave the tickets to the ticket taker when she saw me arrive.

Then she followed to shove them in my hand when she found out that I was about to leave.

She said that since she had already bought the tickets, it'd just go to waste otherwise.

But I'd rather die than to agree, so I turned around and left.

- It's true! - Really?

Do you think I'm stupid?

If I went to watch a movie with another woman, wouldn't I know to destroy the evidence?

Would I wait to let you catch me?

That's true.

I'm not going to rehearse today.

Let's go and watch a movie.

Okay.

Then I'd like to watch Loved Letter.

Okay, no problem.

Let's go.

Let's go! Let's go!

Let's go and watch Loved Letter.

What are you doing? Did you fall asleep?

I'm just resting my eyes.

Why are you here? Sit.

No, I still have something to do for the student union later.

Here's the sign-up sheet for the Sports Meet. Fill it out, okay?

I'm won't participate in the Sports Meet.

Why aren't you participating?

You run so fast!

Besides, I've already set it all up.

I can't make it right, if you don't attend.

You did the same thing during the singing contest last time.

Now you're doing it again in the Sports Meet this time.

Why do you make it like a hard sell every time?

Please? Please?

Just help me consume a spot, okay?

Just fill it out and give it to me when you're back in the dorm.

I still have things to do so I'm leaving first. Bye bye!

Where are you going?

Do you want to go eat breakfast?

Da Huang went to lineup to buy the concert tickets early in the morning.

I'm going to deliver some food to him.

Taotao, did you ask about the movie tickets?

Yes.

It was me who wrongly accused him.

All right then. As long as it's cleared up.

Don't worry. I'm leaving.

Bye.

Be back early.

[Jacky Cheung: 1999 Live Concert]

Tickets! I'll buy your tickets at a higher price.

Tickets wanted! Tickets wanted!

I'll buy your tickets at a higher price.

I'll buy your tickets at a higher price.

Excuse me. Please let me through. Thank you.

Da Huang!

Taotao, you finally came.

You must be hungry.

I bought you some bread.

Make do with it for now.

Eat slowly and drink some water.

Didn't you come here to lineup early in the morning?

Why haven't you gotten it yet?

It'll be soon.

There were so many people already lined up here when I arrived at 8:00 a.m.

They came here to lineup at night instead of sleeping.

That's crazy.

Because it's Jacky Cheung.

Are tickets sold out?

It's sold out.

We're already sold out.

Why are there none left?

- Why? - I'm sorry.

We're really all sold out.

- We're all sold out. We're all sold out. - Stop pushing. Stop pushing.

No, please check. Please check again.

- I've already lined up for half a day. - We're really sold out.

You guys should go check some place else.

I'm guessing they'll be all sold out, too.

Please hurry and leave.

Please hurry and leave. We're really all sold out.

Damn!

I didn't get the tickets either this time.

Drink some water first.

It's okay.

If we weren't able to buy a ticket this time, we can wait until next time.

Next time?

God knows when it will be.

I shouldn't have slept last night.

Do you want it?

Yes, the ticket for Jacky Cheung's concert.

I bought an extra one. Do you want it or not?

If you want it, I can sell it to you for cheap.

Do you really have an extra ticket for Jacky Cheung's concert?

Sell it to me!

If you want it, I can just give it to you.

Money will ruin our friendship.

Seriously?

Xu Menglu, you're really my lucky girl.

You're amazing!

Taotao.

Wait, what's wrong?

What's wrong? Why are you angry again?

Do you know that you always putting a long face like this

makes me lose face in front of my friends?

Is that so?

Then I'm really sorry.

I made you lose face in front of your goddess.

I was just too happy just now.

It's not like a lucky girl is a real goddess.

You're my only goddess.

Huang Jun.

You want to go to the concert with Xu Menglu.

Although I'm uncomfortable with that,

in order to let you have no regrets, I'll put up with it.

But you agreed just now without even asking me.

Isn't it because you don't have me in your heart?

You've really wronged me if you say it that way.

I was really just too happy earlier.

I said yes because I lost my mind.

I really didn't think too much about it.

What makes you think I'll let you go?

My Taotao is sensible.

How could you bear to let me live the rest of my life with regrets?

Since you're this angry...

Then I won't be going to the concert.

I'll give the ticket back to her.

Fine.

You've just put so many tall hats on me. (T/N: Words of praise)

If I still don't agree with it, it'd just make me look mean.

With that being said, do you agree?

You're so nice.

Go back first.

I'm leaving.

Bye.

[Greedy Eggs]

You succeeded, Cheng Lang!

You're quite awesome.

We're still learning web design,

but you can already design a small computer game!

How can we go on living?

That's right.

I initially thought that you attended Computer Science Department classes to pursue girls.

I didn't expect you to actually come here to learn.

What nonsense are you talking about?

If the professor hears,

I can't walk into this classroom tomorrow.

Amazing.

Time for class! It's time for class!

Everyone return to your seats.

They were just joking.

Don't take it to heart.

It's okay.

But they were right about one thing.

You're really amazing.

It's time for class.

Okay, that's all for today.

Class is over.

Lu Shiyi, stay a minute.

What's going on with you lately?

You're always distracted in class.

Sorry, it won't happen again.

Are you still worrying about your hemophobia?

How did you know, Professor?

How long did you think you could hide it?

Sorry. I didn't mean to keep it from you.

- I just... - All right.

I'm not here to question or punish you today.

You're a rare talent.

It's just that this illness is difficult to treat.

The anatomy class will start next semester.

I hope that you'll think about how you'll walk your future path.

If you don't fully cure your hemophobia,

then perhaps changing majors may be your best option.

What is it? Is something dirty on my face?

I was just thinking if you have a bit more brain cells than the rest of us.

Why are you so smart?

As an auditor, you're better than us, official students, of the class. (T/N: Someone who attends a class without earning credits.)

You put lots of pressure on us.

You're over exaggerating.

Not at all.

I heard that you borrowed all kinds of reference books for programming from our class monitor.

This is virtually increasing pressure on us.

What I did was just a small dumb game.

I'm quite far from those real programming masters.

You're already much better than normal college students.

Since you praised me like that, then I'll return the compliment.

If you come across any problems later on, you can come to me any time.

That's your promise.

Sure.

By the way, Lin You. How are your preparations for the Sports Meet?

I'm going to train at the sports ground later.

Then I'll accompany you during your training.

I thought you'd be against me entering the Sports Meet.

It's good to be participating in the Sports Meet.

Plus, we met each other because we both were in a Sports Meet before.

That's true.

If not for it, I don't know how I would've met you guys.

If you don't fully cure your hemophobia,

then perhaps changing majors may be your best option.

What are you thinking? You look gloomy.

Nothing.

You don't look right.

You're in a bad mood, is that it?

No.

What do you need from me?

Oh, yes. What songs do you like to listen to?

Why are you suddenly asking me this?

Just answer. Don't ask why.

I like listening to some classical music recently.

Classical music? Can you understand?

How's that funny? Huang Jun makes so much noise every day.

I have to listen to some elegant music to make my ears better.

I feel quite nervous whenever I think about this Sports Meet.

Let's go.

If you're not leaving, then I will.

[Jiangzhou University Sports Meet Sign Up Form]

If I could run as fast as Xiaoju, then that'd be great.

She does run fast.

But you're not that bad either.

Besides, you always shine in my eyes.

Believe in yourself.

It's quite unexpected.

Not only do you have more brain cells than the average person,

but your words are also sweeter than most people.

I'm telling the truth.

So, don't be nervous.

Just enjoy the competition.

Okay.

Then remember to cheer for me!

I'll definitely cheer for you!

Huang Chan, I'm going to sign up for the Sports Meet.

Xiaoju.

My girl, why do you suddenly want to sign up for it?

400 meter. It just so happens that no one from our department signed up for it.

Thank you so much!

I did something foolish.

So did I.

What did you do?

Xu Menglu bought two tickets of Jacky Cheung's concert.

I became softhearted and agreed to let Da Huang go to the concert with her.

Just them two?

You're creating a chance for them to flirt.

I know.

But Huang really wanted to go to the concert.

He went to lineup for the tickets early in the morning.

He lined up for a long time and he still didn't get them.

I don't want him to miss it because of me even though he had the opportunity to go.

I'm afraid he'd feel upset.

Then why didn't he think that you'd be uncomfortable with it?

Okay, all right. Let's not talk about him.

Anyway, if he dares to fool around with Xu Menglu, I'd the first one to beat him up.

What stupid thing did you do?

I signed up for the 400 meter race in the Sports Meet.

How is that considered stupid?

Lin You also signed up for it.

I signed up for it because of her.

That day,

when Chang Lang helped me block the thermo,

I couldn't stop crying.

I clearly caused him to get injured, yet he still comforted me.

Why is he so nice?

Why must he be so kind to me?

That's why I couldn't get him out of my head.

So you entered the race

because you wanted to win against Lin You?

Is it very stupid?

It's not stupid at all.

I support you. You must win.

I'll try my best.

Try your best.

[Jiangzhou University's 20th Track and Field Sports Meet]

You're back. It's the women's 400 meter race in a bit.

Let's go and cheer for Xia Xiaoju.

Xia Xiaoju also signed up for the 400 meter.

You... You didn't know?

- Come on, let's go. Let's go together. - I'm not going.

I'm leaving then.

Whose cassette tape is this?

Xia Xiaoju delivered it to you early this morning.

She said you needed it urgently.

- Xia Xiaoju? - Yes.

I'm leaving.

Classmate Datu.

There's a saying that the sword's sharp blade is obtained from constant sharpening,

and the plum blossom's fragrance is obtained from surviving the harsh winters.

I hope that through your untiring efforts,

you'll become a great doctor.

I hope that you will be happy everyday.

Here's a piece that I especially chose for you:

Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake.

Shiyi.

I just met your professor downstairs.

He asked me to give this form to you.

[Changing Major Application Form]

What is this?

I'll start the roll call now.

- No. 1, 421. - Yes.

- No. 2, 428. - Yes.

- No. 3, 446. - Yes.

- No. 4, 456. - Yes.

- No. 5, 431. - Yes.

- No. 6, 413. - Yes.

Hurry up. They were calling you.

- I didn't hear him. - Yes.

Remember your lanes.

Xiaoju?

Did you also sign up for the 400 meter?

Yes, that's right. She's also participating in it.

I was thinking if I could come in first place.

Now it seems like there's not much hope.

Why didn't you tell me?

I dragged her into it. She initially didn't want to participate in it.

Why are you distracted?

Did you hear what the judge just said?

You're in the fourth lane.

- Don't forget. - Okay.

I still have things to do. Good luck!

I'm in the fifth lane.

Do you think I can win second place if I run next to you?

I haven't trained much lately.

But you've got a good foundation.

How are your preparations going?

Cheng Lang.

Cheng Lang, did you know that Xiaoju is also running the 400 meter race?

It looks like there's no hope for me to win first place.

I don't know if I can win second place.

I was thinking of winning first place.

- What are you doing? - Don't cry later when you lose.

Can't you say something good?

I'm saying something good.

I'm cheering for you.

I got it. I got it.

Good luck to you guys.

Remember to warm up your arms and feet before the race.

Don't sprain your ankles.

A pair of eight.

A pair of eight, pass.

A pair of Q.

A pair of K.

Huang.

- You're here. - Why are you still here?

The Sports Meet is about to start. Let's go.

What's there to see at the Sports Meet?

I'll take you out to have fun later, okay?

Xiaoju hasn't run yet.

Let's wait until after she finishes the race, okay?

You'd rather see Xiaoju run than go out to have fun with me?

I really doubt my place in your heart.

Others prioritize love over friends,

but when it comes to you, it's the opposite?

Then let me see what's so pretty about you. (T/N: The 2nd character, "se." means lust or the object of affection)

I'm so handsome, but you can't even see that?

I'll show you.

Huang Jun, are you still playing?

Go outside, if you want to get intimate.

You.

Sorry. I'm taking Huang Jun away.

Xu Menglu, help me continue.

Come on, let's go.

Sister Menglu, come on. Come on!

Let's continue.

Athletes, please enter.

- Go and get ready. - Sure.

You're you.

You don't need to prove anything to anyone.

Good luck! Go on.

Hurry, it's about to start. It's starting. [You're awesome!]

Good luck! Good luck!

- Xiaoju, good luck! - Good luck! Good luck, disciple! - Good luck!

Good luck! Good luck!

On your marks!

Get set.
