[A River Runs Through It]

[Episode 26: Knowing you're here, I'm reassured, Part II]

Mom, I'm back.

You're back so early.

Let me pour you a cup of water.

You don't need to. Just sit.

It's okay.

Guess what good news I have.

Acting so secretive. What is it?

Where did you get so much money?

I took part in a programming competition with my classmates.

Here's the reward.

My daughter is so amazing!

Mom, this money will allow us to live comfortably for some time.

If it is inconvenient to go by bus

when going to teach students, you can take a taxi.

Don't ride your bike anymore.

It's not tiring.

I used to stay at home every day, so I had poor health.

I can now ride the bike as a way to exercise.

Mom, I can make money now.

From now on, you should treat yourself better.

What if you get sick from exhaustion?

Don't ride your bike next time.

If you do, I'll sell the bike.

I'll listen to you. I won't ride it anymore.

Here, take the money. This is your reward.

[Guanghui Hair Salon]

Dad.

Why are there so many snacks? Where is your mom?

She quarreled with my sister again.

Sister is in her room.

Mom went out.

I don't know where she went.

She hasn't come back yet.

What happened?

Xiaoju...

Drink some water.

Xiaoju, Jiashu told me everything.

Since you made your decision,

I'll support you.

It'll be fine. As for your mom, I'll try to persuade her.

Dad, do you know? Mom is too stubborn.

She wouldn't listen to anything I said.

No matter what I say, she always says, "You don't understand."

"I'm doing this for your own good."

That's what she said to everything I said.

She doesn't care about my feelings at all.

Child,

don't blame your mom.

If you do, blame me.

I haven't collected enough money for your college tuition yet,

so she's worried.

Every day she has a lot of work to do outside and in the home,

so she's not patient with talking with us.

Child, try to be more considerate of her.

Dad, I won't change majors.

I won't anymore.

That won't do. You shouldn't change your mind about what you have already decided.

Mom, you're back.

Mom, I'm sorry. I won't change majors.

If you want to change majors, then do so.

We just lack money for now.

Once Old Chen's discharged from the hospital, we no longer have to help him.

- Then we'll have more money. - That's right.

Don't think about anything else now.

If you want to change majors, then do so.

Study well, and when you start making money in the future,

remember to take me out traveling.

I have never traveled anywhere far from here.

Mom, I really won't change majors.

I mean it. I don't want to.

All right. Don't keep dawdling.

If you do, I might change my mind.

Here, take it.

All right. Don't cry.

Don't cry.

Mom,

I'll definitely study hard.

I'll definitely take the two of you traveling.

Okay. I know.

Did you go to your mother's home again?

You have suffered.

It's all right. Study well.

[Jiangzhou University]

I don't dare to go. I'm so nervous.

What's there to be nervous about? You have to see it sooner or later. Let's go.

Go on.

Excuse me. Excuse me.

Did you make it? So amazing!

Xiaoju, let's go.

- Xia Xiaoju. Xia Xiaoju. - Your name is right there!

Xia Xiaoju...

Let's go, Xia Xiaoju.

I failed.

You don't need to console me.

Xia Xiaoju, can you be like a girl and not be so careless?

See? That's for Economic Management

and Physics Majors.

Over here is for Tourism Management majors.

Go on.

- Excuse me. Excuse me. - I really got in!

Excuse me.

[1999 List of Students who passed the exam to change majors: Tourism Management Major]

[Xia Xiaoju: female]

Xia Xiaoju!

I made it!

Datu!

- I'm here. - Datu, I made it!

I made it!

Hello, Xiaoju,

I heard the Y2K bug poisons people via computers.

You must take care.

For the next few days, don't use the computers on campus.

Be careful not to be poisoned.

Mom, the Y2K bug isn't how you think it is. It won't poison people.

It won't affect people? Then what kind of poison is it?

It seems like... when the computer can only use two digits.

Decimal system.

That's right, it's the decimal system.

Every time when it crosses century like from 1999 to 2000,

there would be problems.

But I forget what the problem exactly is.

Anyway, Cheng Lang told us about it.

You don't have to worry.

There won't be any problem.

Anyway, you have to be careful.

Your school has many computers,

so there would be a lot of poison as well.

Be careful when eating and drinking.

Okay, I got it. Mom, I'll be careful.

I won't keep talking then.

Cheng Lang is looking for me,

and Taotao is waiting to use her phone.

Once I buy a new phone, I'll call you, and we can keep talking, okay?

Alright. You must take care.

Watch out for poison.

I will.

Here.

By the way, why is Cheng Lang looking for you?

I don't know. He didn't tell me.

When you see him, could you also ask him for me

what exactly is with the Y2K bug?

I need it to write my novel.

Okay, I got it.

Xiaoju, here!

Datu, you're also here.

I can take your bag.

- You must have waited a long time for me? - Not too long.

Today, I will have to trouble you and Shiyi

to go to North Mountain with me.

Aren't the fireworks for tomorrow night?

Why are we going now?

I want to prepare a surprise for Lin You in advance.

Then you've to treat us well.

- Today, I'll order more dishes. - Of course!

Add whatever you want to eat.

Your meals in the next few days are all on me as well, okay?

Thanks, Boss.

Waiter, menu.

Be careful.

Here. Give it to me.

Aren't the two colors you choose too ugly?

What kind of taste do you have? It's so tacky.

If you have such good taste, then you do it.

The balloons are over there.

Go help Cheng Lang hang lights.

I'll work here.

Give me the lights. Here.

Hang them on that tree.

Go slowly.

What shape do you want the lights to form?

What shape do you think Lin You will like?

If you want to confess, then the heart shape.

Okay, let's make a heart.

Did you originally want to form a heart shape, though?

Only you knew that.

Go slowly.

By the way,

I have to thank Xiaoju for introducing Lin You to me.

If she hadn't stained Lin You's clothes,

I wouldn't know her.

Don't forget me, the matchmaker, in the future.

How could I?

What does my matchmaker want to eat tonight?

It's my treat.

Treat us to what? Xiaoju has to work tonight.

I have to go back and study tonight. We don't have time to eat.

Stop wasting time.

Cut the crap, let's hurry and work.

Do these colors match?

Just so-so.

I think it looks very fresh. It's way better than Shiyi's.

Luckily I had your help today,

or our decorations would be too tacky, right?

You mean I shouldn't have come.

No, you should.

Of course, you should,

or there'll be no one to do all the physical work.

Too much nonsense.

Hurry and get to work.

Okay, have a try.

- Is it beautiful? - Yes!

It'll be much prettier at night.

With the fireworks tomorrow night,

it must be even prettier.

Do you think Lin You will like this?

Don't worry. Lin You will definitely like this.

All right, we're almost done with the preparations.

The rest is all up to you.

Fighting!

- Okay, let's hurry and go back. - Let's go.

- Thanks for your hard work today. - You're welcome.

Let's go.

That's right, later you two can head back to campus first,

I still need to buy a new phone.

I'm familiar with electronic products.

- What kind of phone do you want to buy? - A flip phone.

I always think it's cool for a flip phone

to hang up by closing it with a snap.

Sisters, I bought a new phone.

I envy you!

Xiaoling, let me tell you.

I asked him about the Y2K bug for you.

Cheng Lang said it's a program bug

in the processing of the date shown on a computer.

Thank you.

What's wrong? Are you not happy?

I hit a bottleneck and I can't write anything.

Don't worry.

You'll be the greatest romantic novelist in the future.

I believe in you.

Thanks, Xiaoju.

What are you writing?

You've been writing since morning.

Notes for the Animal Biomedicine major.

It's the first time Da Huang's band is attending a New Year's Party.

He has been practicing for these past two weeks

and doesn't have time to take notes.

I'm just helping him.

I have to finish it tonight,

because I've to return the notes tomorrow.

He doesn't even pay attention in class.

Do you think he will seriously read your notes?

He failed the make-up exam.

If he fails a few more exams, he'll have to repeat a grade.

He knows it, too, so he'll focus on studying,

but recently he's too tired.

That's why he slept in class and didn't pay attention.

- How can you believe such nonsense? - All right.

By the way, why did Cheng Lang ask you out today?

He wants to enjoy fireworks tomorrow on the mountain top,

so he asked me to help with arranging decorations

to give Lin You a surprise.

Here. Come out for a second with me.

What for?

Come with me for a walk.

If you want to confess, then the heart shape.

Boss,

do you have a heart-shaped packing box?

[Building No.25, Girls' Dorms]

Taotao, why did you get up so early?

Le Tao?

Are you asleep?

Taotao?

You have a fever!

Qiu Le Tao! Taotao?

- You have a fever! - What's wrong?

She's burning up.

- Let's go to the hospital. - Let's go to the hospital. Let's go.

- I'm fine. - Get dressed.

Dress yourself.

Look at you. What is more important, your health or Huang Jun's studies?

No, I've to call him.

You've fallen ill for him.

If he doesn't know, then it would all be in vain.

Don't call him.

What's his phone number?

How about you use my phone to call him?

Why doesn't he answer?

Forget it, Xiaoju. Don't call him.

He may be rehearsing and didn't hear it.

Tonight's performance matters a lot to him.

I'm fine. Let him focus on his rehearsal.

You're too nice to him.

You didn't tell him that you went to the music shop and helped him pay back the money.

He thought the store owner forgot. In his dreams!

[Enjoy your life]

Hello?

In the hospital?

Wait a minute. I'll be right there.

You guys practice first. I'll be back soon.

[United, Dedicated, and Professional]

Huang Jun? Why didn't you answer my calls?

Why are you here?

You still have a conscience to bring food for Taotao.

- Let's go. - Tao?

Let's go quickly.

Here, hurry.

- Taotao! - Da Huang?

Take this. How did you catch a fever?

Do you feel better?

I'm fine. I already had an IV infusion.

Why didn't you tell me you had a fever?

I feel much better.

That's right. I brought breakfast for you.

Here.

You haven't eaten, have you?

Here.

Here.

All right, enjoy your time together.

I won't stay here as a third wheel.

Here.

Huang Jun, take good care of her.

Okay. You can go.

You can go.

Here.

It's from my band.

You should go back if you're busy.

It's fine.

They rely too much on me.

They always bother me with something they can solve themselves.

What if it's urgent?

Why don't you head back then?

The most important thing for me is to accompany you.

Hurry and go rehearse. I'll have a good sleep after the IV infusion.

I still have to watch your performance tonight.

Don't force yourself.

What about this?

Get some rest.

After the IV infusion is done and you're fully recovered,

I'll sing solo for you, okay?

Okay? One more bite, here.

Put it here. I can eat on my own.

I'll put it here then.

I'm off then.

Hurry and go.

Hurry and go.

I'm off.

You scared me!

Even the school is on break for the New Year,

yet you don't take a break?

Didn't you envy Jiaotong University for having their website before?

These days I've been building

our own university forum.

It's almost done.

So amazing!

By the way,

guess what I bought.

A new CD.

Joe Hisaishi's new album issued in China.

Symphonies included are all live concert versions.

That amazing?

- What do you think? Right, close your eyes. - It sounds nice!

When you close your eyes,

you'll feel you're at the concert.

Wait, listen with both ears.

Okay.

Don't you feel it's... very...

Excuse me, could you please tell me where the bathroom is?

You'll see it if you keep walking straight down the corridor.

Thank you.

I heard there are many handsome juniors at the New Year's Party.

Can we eat first before going to the party?

Okay.

Shall we visit Le Tao first?

Is the IV infusion done?

There's no need. Huang Jun's by her side.

Is Le Tao ill?

Yes, because of Huang Jun, she had a fever.

Don't worry.

Huang Jun will take her here.

Huang Jun, that rascal, every day he...

Xia Xiaoju!

Chang Le!

Xiaoju, if I guessed right,

you're going to the New Year's Party.

- Yes. - Can we go together?

Okay, let's go.

Are they your friends?

That's right, let me introduce him.

He's our class monitor and a top student.

Our whole class admires him.

It's not that exaggerated.

Hello, I'm Chang Le, Xiaoju's classmate.

Hello, I'm Gui Xiaoling.

Hello, I'm Huang Chan.

Hello.

He's my good friend Lu Shiyi.

Do you have any other plans after the party?

She's coming with me to a party in my hometown.

Yes, I almost forgot if you didn't mention it.

Xia Xiaoju promised

to watch fireworks for the New Year on the mountaintop with us.

Yes. Tonight, to celebrate the millennium, Jiangzhou is setting off fireworks all over the city.

It'll be very pretty.

Watch fireworks on the mountaintop?

It sounds so amazing.

It's not crowded and has a nice view.

- Shall we go together? - Inconvenient.

What's so inconvenient?

The mountaintop is so big, that there would be enough room for me.

What are you doing?

Have a good talk with him.

Don't always have him pester us.

Why do you say it so rudely?

He just wants to join us for some fun. What do you mean pester?

Tonight Cheng Lang is confessing to Lin You.

It's really inconvenient to have a stranger there.

Think about it.

Isn't it inconvenient?

- Okay, I'll tell him then. - Hurry and go.

Chang Le, I'm sorry.

Our friends and I already agreed to do something tonight.

So it really is a bit inconvenient,

but there're many places where you can enjoy fireworks on the mountaintop.

It's okay. You can go on with your things.

I can go alone if I want.

Okay, take care of yourself.

Don't worry.

Le Tao?

Taotao!

Why is she alone?

Taotao!

Taotao.

- What's wrong, Taotao? - Le Tao, are you okay?

I'm fine.

Where's Huang Jun? Isn't he with you?

I'm fine.

Did he make you angry? Why are you crying?

- Don't cry, Le Tao. - Taotao.

- Don't cry, Taotao. - Taotao.

What exactly happened? There's no use for crying.

Can it solve anything?

If it's really Huang Jun's fault,

I'll go throw his motorcycle down right now.

What happened? Tell us.

In the hospital,

I saw...

Can you stay with me?

I can perform as soon as the IV infusion is done.

Bastard!

No wonder why he was acting strange at the hospital.

He clearly didn't answer my calls,

why would he have come to the hospital so quickly?

So he was going to see that girl.

Is he still in the hospital?

He left.

He must be in the Art Building. Let's go, you two follow me.

- Let's see what he has to say. - Don't go.

Let him perform first.

Why are you still protecting him?

I'm not protecting him,

I just don't want things to end badly.

It's better for us to have an amicable parting.

I've decided to break up with him.

It's okay.

We support whatever decision you make.

It's better to part with such scum earlier than later.

Besides, it's not like Taotao doesn't have people who want to pursue her, right?

You'll meet a man ten thousand times better than him.

Don't cry.

Let's go back.

- I'll go back to the dorm. - We'll go, too.

Seeing Huang Jun and Xu Menglu on the stage makes me sick.

- I won't go to the party. - Neither will I.

You seem very familiar with Xiaoju.

She's my student. What's up?

Have you known each other for long?

None of your business.

You don't have a really good attitude.

You guys go back first.

I will go give them a heads up.

What's wrong with Le Tao?

Chang Le, you should head back first.

I've to talk with Shiyi.

Go then.

I know.

Xiaoju, I'll wish you a Happy New Year in advance.

- See you next year. - See you next year.

Bye.

When you head back tonight, you must give Huang Jun a beating.

How can he have a foot in both camps?

Qiu Le Tao treats him so well.

Doesn't he have a conscience?

Because of Xu Menglu again?

Who else can it be?

So shameless, why must she knowingly seduce Huang Jun if she knows he has a girlfriend?

If Qiu Le Tao didn't agree,

I'd expose their affair and true natures on the stage

while they're performing to the whole campus.

All right, don't be angry, I'll help you give him a lesson.

- Calm down. - Xiaoju, Shiyi, did you see Lin You?

- Isn't she with you? - No.

I can't contact her now.

Has she already gone to the Arts Building?

I've been there but I can't find her.

Her classmates also don't know where she is.

- Did you quarrel? - Not at all.

Xiaoju, how about this? Could you help look for her?

Shiyi and I'll look for her as well. If you find her, then give me a call.

- Okay. - Let's go.

Xiaoju, remember to call me!

- Bye. - Okay.

- Xiaoju. - Fanyi.

Is Lin You in her room?

No, what's wrong?

- Do you know where she is? - She left pretty early.

She might be in the computer room with Cheng Lang.

- Okay, please call me if she comes back. - I'll do so.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

Bye.

Classmate, has Lin You been here?

No, I haven't seen her.

Thanks.

Hello?

Hi, Auntie.

Is Lin You home now?

She hasn't come back yet.

Can I ask who you are?

I'm her classmate.

If she's not there, then you can forget about it. Thank you, Auntie.

Hello, Datu, where are you now?

I'm by the lake with Cheng Lang.

Wait for me, I'll be right there.
