[A River Runs Through It]

[Episode 29: Even if it's fake, I'm willing, Part I]

Xia Xiaoju, come with me.

- What are you doing? Let me go! - Xiaoju!

Xiaoju!

Lu Shiyi, are you crazy?

Let me go! Are you crazy?

What do you want to do?

Why did suddenly drag me away and start running?

What are you doing?

♫ You walked into my sight ♫

♫ Warm just like a sunny day ♫

♫ I greatly want to let time stop ♫

I want to tell you that...

What do you want to tell me?

♫ I discover only at this moment ♫

♫ Those two worlds are walking farther away ♫

I want to tell you...

♫ The only thing left is my longing ♫

♫ Who also once yearned to exchange using the souls? ♫

♫ Yet only to be left stranded before forgetting ♫

Give it back to me!

Give it to me!

♫ Wandering about in the opposite direction ♫

♫ I wish dearly that besides you, you can have... ♫

What are you doing?

Xiaoju, I like you.

♫ ...to fly with you ♫

♫ I can only pretend and lie ♫

♫ I go off wandering ♫

♫ with a facade of happiness ♫

♫ The snow outside the window ♫

- Are you going mad? - No, I'm not.

What nonsense are you talking about?

I just saw Senior Shen linking arms with your.

It's a misunderstanding.

Shen Duo invited me to join, but I refused her.

But then I found out that you and Chang Le would come, so that's why I came.

Anyway, I don't like her.

I clearly told her about it, and she knows that I like you.

However, I never had the courage to tell you.

♫ I discover only at this moment ♫

But now...

If I don't say it,

you would never know what I'm thinking.

♫ Who also once yearned to exchange using the souls? ♫

Xia Xiaoju, I like you.

I've liked you for a long time.

♫ Wandering about in the opposite direction ♫

♫ I wish dearly that besides you ♫ ♫ You can have the most considerate companion ♫

♫ Someone that can replace me ♫

Lu Shiyi! You're crazy!

♫ I can only pretend and lie ♫

♫ I go off wandering ♫

♫ with a facade of happiness ♫

♫ The snow outside my window ♫

♫ accompanies my thoughts ♫

♫ That snow outside my window accompanies my thoughts ♫

Xia Xiaoju, I like you.

Hello? Who is it?

Do you want to speak to Xiaoju? Hold on, please.

Xiaoju, someone is looking...

Well, she's sleeping right now.

How about I tell her to give you a call back once she's awake?

- Who are you? - It's fine.

It's enough to know that she's back at her dorm.

All right.

Xiaoju, what's the matter with you?

You're so out of it.

I'm fine.

Do you have emotional problems?

What about telling me about it?

Maybe I can write your story into my novel.

Gui Xiaoling.

I thought I would be the only one drinking in solitary.

Cheers!

What do I do? It's already 7:40. I'll be late.

- Hi, Classmate, your hat looks nice. - Thank you.

- Where did you buy it? - I bought it at an amusement park.

It's so sunny.

It is. Do you want to borrow it?

No, thanks.

Are you still avoiding me?

Th-Thank you.

Don't you have anything to say to me?

Datu, can you let me think more about it?

Fine.

I won't rush you and give you some time.

But I just want to let you know that

if I keep being timid and afraid to confess my love to you,

I'll never be able to get together with you.

I'll try my best to let you accept me.

Go to class first.

- How about I walk you there? - No need.

What happened?

Le Tao.

Who bought so many snacks and flowers to woo you?

Why doesn't anyone buy me these things?

Besides only hanging out with us and attending classes every day, all you do is stay in your dorm

reading and writing novels.

How can others woo you?

- Well... - Stop being envious.

They're not mine.

Chang Le left the flowers at the dorm manager's downstairs

to give to Xiaoju.

And Shiyi asked me to bring these snacks upstairs to share with everyone.

For us?

Let me see what he bought.

But why would Lu Shiyi suddenly buy us snacks?

Gui Xiaoling.

You've read so many love stories before,

and you can't even guess why?

I knew a long time ago that he likes our Xiaoju.

I didn't think he'd be this "patient." (Said with sarcasm)

He just has to wait until someone else woos Xiaoju before he makes his move.

Buying us these snacks is probably him trying to bribe us

to put in some good words for him.

But we don't know what Xiaoju's thinking.

So should we help him or not?

I think Lu Shiyi is not bad.

It's just putting in some good words for him.

It's not like we're forcing Xiaoju to like him.

Anyway, I'm willing to help by putting in some good words for him.

Le Tao, what do you think?

Let's eat first, we'll talk about it later.

You're right. Let's eat first then talk about it later.

I'll eat a snow cookie. (T/N: Arare rice crackers made of glutinous rice.)

Sisters, I'm back!

Xiaoju, hurry and come here to eat some snacks.

Who bought them?

So many!

- QQ Candy! - I like this one!

It's Lu Shiyi.

What about the flowers?

Look at it yourself.

[Meeting you is the most beautiful accident. - Chang Le]

I think Lu Shiyi is quite a good person.

- He's generous. - That's right!

And he looks quite handsome.

Lu Shiyi made it onto the list of the handsome guys last time.

I saw it! I saw it!

Even he can get on the list!

Are you blind?

Xiaoju, although Lu Shiyi always goes against you,

you have to admit he's quite handsome.

If it wasn't because he always has the same stiff expression towards other girls,

he might even be more popular than Cheng Lang.

What about him having a stiff expression?

At least he's generous and loyal to friends.

He's much better than those who are more promiscuous.

- Xiaoju, am I right? - Is that right, Xiaoju?

That's right, Xiaoju!

Oh my goodness.

Have some moral integrity, all right?

You only had a few of the snacks and you already praised him that much?

Xiaoju.

Now that there are Chang Le

and Lu Shiyi.

Which one will you choose?

Who will you choose?

Which one will you choose?

Neither of them!

I don't want to have a relationship without an ending before my graduation.

I also don't want to break up after graduation,

so don't ask me about it again.

I'm about to be annoyed to death!

Xia Xiaoju, what you said just now really creates hatred.

The campus' two male gods are chasing after you.

And you're feeling annoyed?

My dear girls.

There are so many things to do! Hurry and get back to work. Get back to work!

Hurry and get back to work.

Get back to work.

Chang Le, thank you for liking me,

but I don't have any thoughts of getting into a relationship at the moment.

It's better for us to stay as classmates.

Datu, I didn't refuse you explicitly that day

because I was afraid

that I'd lose you as a friend.

I hope that we can be good friends forever.

Please don't misunderstand,

and please don't do these kinds of nonsense again.

Girls like guys who are elegant, gentle, and polite.

How can she like you when you're hostile towards her?

Elegant, gentle, and caring.

Am I to become Cheng Lang?

Lin You.

I'm sorry.

I still want to stay here

to improve the algorithm of the shopping platform.

Although the internet will develop slowly domestically these next few years,

I think that online shopping will become a big trend,

so I want to work it out first.

If you want to go abroad...

Me persuading you to go abroad wasn't because I wanted to go abroad.

It's because I really think that the internet structure abroad

is more beneficial towards advancing your future career.

Don't be mad.

I'm more wronged than Dou'E. (T/N: A play about a girl who was unjustly executed by a rejected suitor and corrupt official.)

That's not what I mean.

How did I wrong you?

What I meant was that I wanted to consider it from your point of view.

Think about it. Studying abroad can be really beneficial for your dancing career.

I really support it.

You... really support me studying abroad?

Of course!

Think about it. You finally have something that you want to do.

I won't keep you with me selfishly.

I also think that you're really an internet genius.

I also believe that you can change the future of the internet.

Why do I feel like after hearing your words,

you want me to date a computer?

I think it's not a bad idea.

Maybe it could be a business opportunity.

Is everything in your eyes money?

You'll be fine if you wear this to your interview.

Xiaoju! Le Tao.

Look at me! What do you think of this?

She has an interview tomorrow.

It looks pretty good.

I don't think that chasing after you is a boring thing.

Also, are you planning to avoid me forever?

If you have anything to say in the future, say it face to face.

[CL, I like you.]

Xiaoju...

This is...

No, Taotao. Don't misunderstand this.

I've really already given up on Cheng Lang.

The reason why I'm writing this

is to get Datu to give up.

He knows that I liked Cheng Lang.

To be honest,

I think Shiyi is a nice person.

Do you really have no feelings for him?

I also think he's a nice person.

But whenever I think about us becoming lovers,

I just... I just... I become extremely awkward.

I analyzed it rationally.

The most basic reason is that I really don't like him.

We can be only friends, not lovers.

So I don't want to give him any hope.

- Hello? - Hello, Datu.

Do you still have the tape I recorded for you?

Yes! It has always been in my drawer.

I suddenly want to listen to it. Can you bring it over here?

I'm at the library's self study room.

Okay, wait for me. I'll be right there.

Why did you suddenly want to listen to the tape?

[CL, I like you.]

Shiyi.

Shiyi.

I... suddenly feel thirsty. Can you buy me a bottle of water?

Fine.

Aren't you being too cruel to Shiyi by doing this?

In order to get him to give up on me, this is the only way.

CL, I like you?

Xiaoju, who's CL?

CL is... that...

CL...

It should be the initials of a boy, right?

Is it someone we all know?

I-I just wrote it aimlessly.

CL is me.

My English name is Cooper.

Full name is Cooper Lu. The initials are CL.

Is it cool?

Cool. Cool.

You guys...

We're together.

Xiaoju, is that true?

When was this? Why haven't you told me?

We just got together.

She's too shy to tell you. Right?

That's right. We just got together.

We didn't have time to tell you guys yet.

Then... Lin You, we shouldn't stay here and be third wheels.

- Bye bye. - Bye bye! - Bye bye!

Since when were they together?

How long have they been together? They kept it a tight secret for so long.

What are you doing?

Give it to me.

What do you want with it?

Didn't you write this so I could see it?

But it's all right.

From now on, I am CL.

You...

Didn't you write this so I could see it?

But it's all right.

From now on, I am CL.

Stop! Stop.

What should I do?

Things are becoming more and more complicated,

you know?

Luckily, Shiyi responded very fast.

If Lin You really found out who CL is,

then that would be truly troublesome.

But the point now is that

Lin You thinks I'm going out with Datu.

She will definitely tell Cheng Lang.

By then, everyone will think that we're dating. Then...

I...

You're now in a dilemma. (T/N: Lit. riding a tiger and finding it hard to dismount.)

The only thing you can do right now is to pretend to be dating him.

Act as lovers in front of Lin You and Cheng Lang.

- Act as lovers? - Yes.

How?

Just act like how other couples date.

Haven't you seen it?

You guys must act realistically.

You can't let them find flaws.

Datu, do you want to eat some chips?

You should be feeding me chips like this.

No! I can't act like that!

It's too disgusting!

Think it over again.

Try to imagine some beautiful scenes.

- Beautiful! - Beautiful?

Try to think of it.

The male lead in this movie is really touching.

How can he be so pitiful?

I don't allow you to cry for other men.

You can only cry for me in the future.

No. I won't let you cry.

I want you to be happy every day.

It's not beautiful at all!

No, no! I really can't act it out!

I'll go and tell him tomorrow. I'm not going to act it out.

[Male Dormitory Building No. 29]

Come in.

Why did you come find me this early in the morning?

Lin You will be practicing in the dance studio this afternoon.

Let's act in front of her again at that time.

Let's act like we're fighting. The kind as if we're going to break up, okay?

How can a couple break up just after being together?

I refuse.

Datu, take it as me begging you, all right?

I've thought about it for a whole night last night.

I don't think it's suitable for us to pretend to be lovers no matter how I think about it.

I agree.

Right?

- Since you don't think it's suitable either— - I think it's better if we officially date.

Datu! I'm already annoyed enough as is!

Let's act it out one last time. One last time, all right?

Just give it up.

I definitely won't act like I'm breaking up with you.

If you want to act, then we'll act like real lovers.

You're not willing to cooperate, is that it? Then I'll act it out myself!

At that time, I'll tell them it's boring to be with you

so I'm dumping you unilaterally.

If you dare say that you dumped me,

then I'll tell Lin You that CL is Cheng Lang.

You!

I'm your boyfriend right now.

There's nothing else to talk about except love between the two of us.

Unreasonable!

[Gym]

Shiyi.

Didn't you say that your girlfriend would come today and watch you play ball?

Why hasn't she come?

Don't listen to him brag.

I've played with him for four years but I've never seen him have a girlfriend.

We just got together, okay?

Fine.

Then tell me who your girlfriend is.

So mysterious.

That's my girlfriend.

- Really? - Wait, no...

Xia Xiaoju! Come over here!

Watch me play basketball and cheer me on.

Did you call me over here just to cheer you on?

Are you that bored? I'm busy!

How can you be busy?

Xia Xiaoju!

Shiyi...Your girlfriend... is quite capricious.

Nonsense.

Xia Xiaoju! Slow down.

Xia Xiaoju!

You didn't give me any face just now!

They'll make fun of me behind my back with you being like this.

You didn't have good intentions so why are you blaming me for not giving you face?

What do you mean I didn't have good intentions?

Do you dare to say that you didn't tell your friends I'm your girlfriend?

Didn't you tell me to act?

So I thought to practice in front of them first.

In case we expose ourselves in front of Lin You and Cheng Lang. Right?

We only need to act in front Lin You and Cheng Lang in the future.

We don't need to in front of others.

No, I like to act.

If you want me to stop acting,

then you just need to agree to officially be my girlfriend.

You're pestering me unreasonably!

- Where are you going? - Library.

Then I'll... I'll go with you!

When other girls go to the library,

they have their boyfriends accompany them, tutor them, and help them with homework.

I'll accompany you, all right?

- I'll go and change my clothes. - I refuse! I don't need it!

Xia Xiaoju.

If you don't cooperate with me,

it'll be very easy for us to let it slip in front of Lin You and Cheng Lang.

Think about it carefully.

If we let it slip, then so be it.

I don't want to act it out anymore anyways.

- How could you be like this? - What did I do?

- Didn't you say it yourself? - Xiaoju!

Shiyi!

Lin You, I want to tell you something!

Wait!

Actually...

Didn't you want to go to the library? Let's go.

I almost forgot about it. All right, let's go.

- Then we're leaving now. Bye bye! - Bye bye.

- Didn't you say you had something to tell me? What's the matter with Xia Xiaoju? - Do you want a beating?

Timing and Subtitles by The River of Youth Team @Viki.com

We both think that...

Cheng Lang really, really likes you.

Of course, I do. No need to say it out.

We have to leave now.

- Don't pinch me! You pinch me again and I'll tell them! - I'll pinch you!

- The way they date is really special. - If you pinch me again—

- Bye bye. - Bye.

These two idiots are always like this.

I've grown accustomed to it.

Let's go.

♫ There you are, running wildly through the highlands ♫

♫ Another you is sighing silently ♫

♫ No one is able to understand you ♫

♫ I'm glad you're not willing to give up like this ♫

♫ It hurts to see the stubbornness in your eyes ♫

♫ I'm a bit tired and need to rest ♫

♫ The marks we leave in life ♫
