[Episode 26]

Zheng Hui, how is it?

- Tong Nian. - Did it go smoothly?

The surgery was very successful, thanks to your dad.

The time that the surgery took was shorter than expected.

That's good then.

Tong Nian, actually, you didn't have to personally come here.

How could I not?

Today is Auntie's operation. I have to rush over here to see if there's anything I can help with.

Thanks.

Tong Nian, let's go over there to talk. Sit and talk.

- Okay, let's go. - Okay.

Hello, where is the ICU for liver surgery?

The third floor.

Okay, thank you.

It's okay. I can do it myself.

- All right. - Thanks.

How's Auntie? She's okay, right?

Pretty good. Your dad said that everything's quite well.

It's just that I might have to stay here all night tonight.

Today, Auntie just finished having the operation.

You indeed need to take care of her. It'll be hard work.

Then... If you were here to accompany me for a night, it'd be even better.

Maybe, I shouldn't accompany you to stay here for a night.

Are you hungry? You're definitely hungry, right?

Then let's have a meal together, okay?

I already ate just before coming here.

It's okay, it's okay. Are you hungry?

- If you're hungry, you can go and eat. - Uh, no.

Because you need to wait a whole night here today.

It just so happens that I'm not hungry, either.

Then let's drink something. Let's rest for a while.

Okay.

Tong Nian, I-I...

Are you still worrying about your mom?

Don't worry. Your mom is just a little bit old,

so she will have to stay in the hospital for a few hours longer than other people.

But tonight, my dad is working the night shift.

Don't worry. There won't be any problems.

Thanks to you being here.

Then...

Actually, I...

- Actually, I... - Huh?

If–

Didn't you guys want to go drink something together?

Why are you here?

- Hello, Tong Nian's brother. - Don't try to get close to me.

He's not my brother.

How should I address him?

Our family's elders are close.

Hello, Tong Nian's Uncle.

Didn't you want to go and eat?

How did you know? Did you overhear?

I just passed by and overheard it by accident.

Let's go. We shouldn't waste precious time.

Thank you, Uncle.

Tong Nian, let's go then.

- Let's go drink some– - Hey.

Did I say that I'm not going?

Then, let's go together.

Let's go.

Be careful.

- Let's sit here. - Okay.

- Here. Be careful. - Thank you.

- Here. Sit properly. - Thanks.

Thank you.

- I'll sit across the table. - Okay.

Waiter!

The atmosphere is really awkward. What does he want to do?

- Here. - Thanks.

Thanks.

I'm really thirsty.

You're welcome.

See what you'd like to order.

Thanks.

Tong Nian, you like eating strawberries. Right?

Then, two strawberry tarts.

It works, thanks.

I'll pay.

I want an Australian beef curry plate,

spaghetti, a round table platter, and burning chicken wings.

After the meal, give me a metropolitan red velvet cake.

Okay.

Thanks.

I need to find a way to quickly end this meeting.

Don't think you can get rid of me.

Didn't you just tell me that you needed to go back to the club?

I just remembered that I have a friend who's hospitalized.

I need to visit him later.

What friend? In which department?

Right, who?

Zheng Hui, my dad said that someone needs to be waiting outside the ICU.

The time that you have left is quite long. It'll be bad if something dangerous occurs.

You should go back and wait for her.

If by chance, something happens and you're not there, it'll be very dangerous.

Go, go. Hurry up and go back.

- If something happens, call me. - But–

I'll pack this up for you and bring it over.

- Bye-bye. - Wait a moment.

Pay the bill first.

Just kidding, I will. Hurry up and leave.

Thank you.

Zheng Hui is from a single-parent family. He lives with his mom.

He's very pitiful.

However, he's studying for his Ph.D. Isn't that impressive?

How do you want me to answer you?

My parents passed away early.

I was raised by my stepmother.

I heard about it a little before.

This time, when I went back to Norway to report on my work,

my stepmother got remarried.

Grandpa and I are the only ones left in my family.

Getting remarried?

That's a good thing!

She has regained happiness. It's good.

Ten years ago,

I traveled all the way back to China,

but I ended up living in a basement with Solo.

We were so poor that we had nothing but the bare walls of the basement.

Then, we finally established a club,

and we wanted to achieve some merits;

but in the end, it all failed.

You asked me, do I think he's pitiful?

Do you think I'm pitiful?

It's okay; don't be sad. You still have K&K and also me.

I will always support you.

Kids are pretty easy to trick.

What are you laughing about?

Forced laughter.

Don't cry.

- Eat. - You eat. You eat.

You ordered all of this.

How come you started cleaning as I was walking guests out?

Let me do it.

Thank you, Idol.

What are you thanking me for? I should thank you.

Then, I won't thank you.

Anyway, you're my idol. I'm willing to help you.

Here. It's dirty.

Thank you, Idol.

Let me give you a suggestion.

Can you not call me "Idol" anymore?

We're already this familiar with each other.

It's fun calling you that.

Call me Mi Shaofei or Little Mi.

Does it not sound good?

It shouldn't be worse than Han Shangyan's name, right?

It's better than Solo or Wang Hao by a lot, right?

It's not bad. Powerful. Sounds good.

Sounds like a name from operas.

Didn't you leave? Why did you come back?

Actually, I wanted to ask...

I saw that post you posted recently.

I was thinking...

That wasn't me. It was Yaya who posted it.

After I found out, I deleted it.

You still saw it?

Then, the words in the post...

I don't think that at all!

That jacket is very important to me.

I wouldn't post that.

I think that us talking and strolling

is pretty nice.

It seems that only at this time can we get closer.

If we have the chance in the future,

can we spend more time like this?

Actually,

these few days have been hard for me.

I regretted some words immediately after I said them.

I think you...

What's so funny?

Knowing that you went through a hard time.

Because of me, you went through a hard time. Right?

Now, I'm very happy.

What are you doing?

What?

Timing and Subtitles Brought To You By The 🍯 Honey Stewed 🐙 Squid Team @ Viki

Sun Yaya!

What is it, Idol?!

What did you just call me?

Brother Little Mi...

It's late. How about I take you to the subway?

Let's go.

Why are you looking at me? What are you smiling about?

I-I was watching a video. So funny.

You weren't looking earlier.

When you weren't looking earlier, you smiled so much...

I'm asking you. Who sent you home today?

Y-You saw wrong. It was the school officer.

I didn't even say who it was, and you already said I was wrong? School officer?

The school officer brought you back, and that's why you were laughing with drool?

Did I?!

Look! You're still trying to trick me now. Tell me. Who was it?

I...

Are you talking about me?

Did you take a big step in progress today?

W-What progress would I have? With who?

- No? - No.

Can it be when you went to the hospital,

Zheng Hui confessed to you and you realized Zheng Hui is your Mr. Right?

What Zheng Hui?! How could I like Zheng Hui?

Exactly! You see? It's still Han Shangyan.

I don't understand what you're saying. No comment.

Look at you! I have to take a picture.

Let's look at our Nian Nian being like this.

- Stop! I don't want to. - Here.

I don't want to! Just send a picture of yourself to Mi Shaofei!

- No! - I want to take a picture.

- Quickly! - So annoying.

Have you seen this kind of Nian Nian?

So ugly.

Auntie, thank you for taking care of it so well.

It was no trouble at all.

Hey! This cat is so annoying.

It wouldn't stop meowing all day and night.

Don't worry. I'll bring it back to K&K tonight.

This... Can't even take care of himself and wants to take care of a cat.

See how long it takes until the cat dies.

I raised a cat before.

Grandpa, he's very attentive.

- Want to carry it? - No! Don't come here!

Don't come here!

- Carry it. - Go away!

Say "Grandpa." "Grandpa."

What happened today? Why are you so happy?

Did you win?

Pretty much. Semifinals.

Give the cat to me.

Whatever. At least you weren't wasting your time.

Grandpa,

have you gotten bored of listening to these opera CDs?

Later, I'll look around and get you some new ones.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Did you change personality?

It's rare for you to be so filial to me.

Oh right.

Wasn't your phone camera broken?

I have a few- Hey, this one is new.

Take it and use it.

Did the club lose money and you want to borrow from me?

Don't worry. Everything is fine.

Do you have anything else you want?

Make a list and I'll buy it one at a time later.

We're the only ones left in our Han family.

We only have each other; don't try to be polite with me.

Oh my god! Kitty! We're going back to K&K.

What is this scoundrel doing?!

Come, come. Let's go back to K&K.

[SP Gaming]

If you agree, I'll start procedures for Little Ai leaving the country.

Give me a few more days.

I need to talk with Little Ai first.

Thank you, Solo.

You're right.

Girls are more suited to be with their mothers.

As a man, I can't say anything comfortably.

I believe you and Nan Wei will give her the best environment to thrive.

Your family is more suited for Little Ai's growth.

Then, I will wait for your news.

After you leave, will Han Shangyan be okay on his own?

You understand how he is.

There's nothing that he can't handle.

He has his own way of managing that group of kids. He can control them.

His abilities are admirable.

You are the same.

As someone without any background, you relied on your own ability to get to this position.

Solo, I wasn't able to help you in those years.

In fact, I hurt you.

I hope you will get better and better. I always have.

Little Ai is not only my daughter.

She is yours, too.

Boss, Mi Shaofei retired and SP found a stronger player to replace him.

He's called Fu Ying, do you know him?

He is a worthy young talent.

The technical ability of SP Team Two's captain is on par with Grunt's.

If he's so great, why put him on the Team Two?

Solo has been managing the SP Club well these past years.

They wanted to develop two equally-capable teams

so that they can get two medals.

Two medals?

My cat.

Their goal is to get a gold and bronze medal at the same time.

Even more, when our club isn't doing its best, to get a gold and silver then kick us out.

They're so ambitious.

97, I need to have a private chat with Boss.

Okay.

There's something I want to give you a heads-up about.

I'm taking Little Ai with me.

You want to take away his daughter?

She's also my daughter.

Actually, you didn't need to let me know about this.

When we first came back to China to establish the Chinese branch, I already said

that what happens between you two is not my concern.

Little Ai.

Little Ai, what are you doing?

Do you hear me?

Wait a moment. I need to change.

It takes that long to change?

You only opened the door after I knocked on it for such a long time?

I was putting my ointment on and wasn't wearing my hearing aid.

Next time, don't lock your door when you're not wearing your hearing aid.

It's nothing! We are no longer living in a bungalow now.

Also, nobody uses gas anymore.

I won't get carbon dioxide poisoning.

Dad, you care that much about me?

Aren't you speaking nonsense?

Is it still itchy?

I am itchy to death. When Grandma is not home, there's no one to put the ointment on for me.

Tell me. Did I inherit urticaria from you?

You can't blame this on me. It's your mom.

As expected. I knew she wouldn't be able to pass down any good traits to me.

Little Ai.

She's your mom. You can't talk like this.

She only gave birth to me; she didn't raise me.

I'm only calling her mom out of respect for you.

Little Ai, I have something to discuss with you.

Other than moving in with Mom, everything else is negotiable.

You really are my daughter. A little genius.

You're really sending me away?

Dad, she left you back then to leave the country.

I get annoyed whenever I see her.

Silly child,

your mom and I broke up mutually.

No. Don't lie to me.

When have I ever lied to you?

No way. You two have divorce papers. Grandma showed it to me.

Grandma said that you two divorced right after giving birth to me!

And after having me, she left the country. She's the one who left you!

You used to be poor. She didn't want you and didn't want me.

Now that I am grown, she wants me again.

How can she be this horrible?!

Little Ai,

this is all your misunderstanding. When you're older, I'll explain.

I only want you. I don't want her.

Little Ai!

Little Ai!

Open the door, Little Ai.

Didn't we agree on this?

We have three rules. No locking doors when arguing.

Open the door, Little Ai.

Open the door!

I am not wearing my hearing aid! I can't hear you!

Mom, do you have time right now?

I need your help with something.

I need to go to the club this evening.

I am not comfortable leaving Little Ai home alone.

Can you come over?

All right. I will wait for you to come before I leave.

What's wrong with your throat?

- Not sure. Maybe because these past two days the weather has been cold. - Does it hurt?

Doesn't hurt. Just itchy.

Why did the Little Ancestor come here again?

Why are you here again?

Running away from home.

You're pretty good at memorizing directions, and came directly to our dorm.

Look whose daughter you're talking about.

Yes, yes, yes. You're Solo's daughter. You're especially worthy of praise. You're the best.

You're the best. Now return to the main topic.

Why did you run away from home again? What happened?

I feel, ever since my mom came back,

my dad doesn't love me as much anymore.

What else can I do?

- Let's go inside and talk. - Come in.

Your luggage.

Don't care about it anymore? I'll bring it in for you.

Timing and Subtitles Brought To You By The 🍯 Honey Stewed 🐙 Squid Team @ Viki

She doesn't want to come out.

Sorry to trouble you again.

It's okay! This is no trouble at all! Yaya and I like her a lot.

We welcome her here. But if she always runs away from home,

I'm afraid that next time she'll go somewhere else instead of here.

That'd be dangerous.

She won't.

- How do you know? - I know my own daughter.

Little Ai just likes to throw tantrums, but she knows how to protect herself.

She came to find you as a way of demonstration to me.

Tong Nian, this is a girls' dormitory, so it's inconvenient for us two men to go inside.

Can you call Little Ai out here?

I'll wait for her here. I want to talk to her.

Actually, since our dormitory is the postgraduate student dorm, they're not as strict.

I'll ask the auntie if I can let you two inside. Wait for me.

Auntie, these two people are from my family.

They want to come inside to discuss something. They'll leave within 30 minutes. Is that okay?

Go ahead. Just watch the time.

Thank you.

Keep quiet.

Sorry. Wait three minutes for me, it won't take long.

Hurry! Clean up the room. They're outside the door.

- Outside the door? - They came up?

Chun Chun, your undergarments.

This one! This one!

Why are you laughing? This is all your fault.

Yaya, look at the crumbs you dropped.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

- Are we done? - No, no.

I'll let them inside.

Okay, you can come in.

Yaya! Chun Chun! Don't you two have something to do?

- Oh right! - Right! Let's go.

Little Ai.

On the way here, I thought about it a lot.

Since you have such a deep misunderstanding about what happened between me and your mom,

I should explain it to you.

I hope they can properly talk it out this time, right?

Solo used to be a team captain, and now he's the person-in-charge.

He understands the human heart very well. Don't worry.

Understands the human heart? But he still wasn't able to convince you.

It's so troublesome to have children now, right?

You can't just give birth to them. You have to raise them, be responsible for them, and educate them.

Anyway, if I have children in the future,

I'll be a very competent mother.

I know.

You know what?

This is none of your business.

Stop explaining it! I don't want to listen!

Listen to me, Little Ai. Listen to me.

You never wanted to listen to what I had to say.

You never wanted me. You didn't even know I was born.

Since you didn't want me, why did you promise my mom that you'd raise me?

You should have just given me to the orphanage!

Little Ai, things aren't as you think.

In the beginning, I didn't expect it.

But I have to tell you,

I never wanted to abandon you.

I never did!

I...

I don't trust you!

After my mom gave birth to me, she didn't want me.

You never thought that I would exist!

You two are the same! The same!

The both of you don't want me.

You wish I didn't exist because that way, I wouldn't have ruined your perfect lives.

Little Ai,

in my life,

all of my suffering and failures

were my own choices.

I really regret them,

but I never regretted

having you as my daughter

because you taught me what it means to treasure someone.

Seeing you grow up from a little baby to now,

I walked with you through all the sadness and happiness.

Did you know?

Those are the best memories

of my life.

Are you looking for the hearing aid?

I have it here, but it is damaged.

Help me look after her. I will be back after I fix this.

Solo, how about letting her stay here for a few days?

Come back to talk when she has calmed down. How's that?

All right. Then I will give you some...

No need. She doesn't need money here. We have meal cards for the cafeteria.

The money in the meal card is still money. Here.

Who is that poor? We still have enough money for food.

All right.

I won't turn off my phone. Call me anytime there's an issue.

All right.

Little Ai.

Little Ai, it's me.

Don't cry anymore. They are gone.

Here, look at me.

I know that you are not angry at him anymore.

You love your dad a lot. Right?

♫ I start to portray an unfamiliar me ♫

Don't cry anymore. It's okay, it's okay.

Don't cry, Little Ai.

♫ But no matter how much I practiced, I can't act like myself ♫

♫ The me who doesn't care about you ♫

After my mom gave birth to me, she didn't want me.

You never thought that I would exist!

The two of you are the same. The same!

Both of you don't want me.

You wish I didn't exist because that way, I wouldn't have ruined your perfect lives.

I had to trouble you again.

You are troubling her. Why are you telling me?

I don't feel good inside.

I'll feel better after I apologize to you.

If you can't bear to leave her, why pretend to be a good person?

You did that before and are still doing it now.

On occasion, you should listen to the child's opinion.

I am not pretending to be a good person.

After all, she is a girl.

It's better to be with her mom than with me.

I can't take care of the home all the time.

I have wronged her.

I didn't take good care of her.

She has had uticaria since she was little.

Back then, I was able to put ointment on her.

Now, I can't even do that for her.

But moms are not the same.

It's better with a mom.

When she gets even older,

there will be many more things that as a dad I can't do for her.

Old Han...

Frankly speaking,

I really don't understand how she thinks.

You don't have any children,

so it's probably hard for you to understand.

Sometimes when I look at her,

I am rather satisfied.

But some other times,

I feel like a failure.

The hearing aid is broken. She can't hear anything right now.

Solo wasn't able to get through to her?

She is close to her dad. If Solo can't get through, then we won't have a chance either.

I don't know.

Hello.

Bring Little Ai out.

Now?

Han Shanyang said he wanted me to bring her out.

- What does he want to do? - He didn't say.

You didn't ask either.

I didn't.

I need to think of a way to get her out.

[It's okay to be angry, but I am hungry.]

[You are probably hungry, too. Don't hold a grudge against food.]

I lied to get her out.

But I think that even if you see her, you may not be able to take her away.

[I am an old friend of your parents. If you want to hear about their story,]

[then go with me to buy a new hearing aid.]

You are outdated. Hearing aids need to be prescribed.

You think you can buy it anywhere?

I am guessing that you have a backup hearing aid.

How do you know?

If you want to hear their story,

then put your hearing aid back in.

It's in my backpack.

Go get her backpack. I will watch her.

Don't be too mean to her.

Little Ai, I will help you get your hearing aid.

Wait for me.
