[The Way Home]

[Episode 10]

You're not "Number One"

or "Top Student."

You're simply He Jiahao.

Thank you all for sharing.

Next, we'll tell you

more about the school's priorities

for the semester.

Please open it.

Why are you here?

Where's the money?

This way.

I'm working on it.

Wait a little longer.

Kid.

Are you fooling me?

If you can't decide,

I'll go to He Jiashu.

Don't.

Let's talk outside.

Not here.

You're afraid people will know

about my relationship with your cousin,

but I'm his real father,

so why couldn't they know?

Stop it.

Don't worry.

I came here to ask for money

not to cause trouble.

I'll leave

as soon as I get the money.

I don't have that much money.

Now,

I'll ask my mom for lucky money.

How can lucky money be enough?

100,000.

Give me 100,000 now.

I don't have that much money. How can I give it to you?

But your parents have.

Go back and steal some.

What are you talking about?

It's okay if you don't want to.

I'm going to my son!

My son is gone!

Stop.

My son!

I'll do something.

- My son, where are you? - I'll do something.

I'll do something,

OK?

Guys!

Why is that guy yelling?

- I can't find my son! - What happened?

Let's go check it out.

My son!

Let's go check it out.

Let's go.

My son is gone.

My son!

I'll do something.

- Son, where are you? - I'll do something.

I'll do something,

OK?

I'll do something.

Right now.

Call your mom

and tell her to give me the money.

My mom won't approve.

She...

Hey.

Hey...

Everybody.

Listen to me!

I...

I...

I am He Jiashu's real father.

Stop.

And

- He Jiahao's uncle. - The only one?

Why is he here?

Right?

Do they know each other?

Since He Jiahao has that cousin,

he also has this uncle, me.

I'm in a bit of a bind

and want to borrow some money from the He family

for working capital,

but the He family

won't agree.

Stop!

Have you ever seen

such a cruel family?

And that guy in there, He Jiashu,

the one who was in the classroom

for He Jiahao's

parent-teacher conference.

He Jiashu!

Can you stand to see your father

go bankrupt and ignore me?

Stop the nonsense!

Nonsense?

Kids.

Everyone.

Go back

and ask your parents.

Eight years ago,

everyone knew

that He Jiashu's mom

cuckolded his dad.

That's not true.

Cuckolded?

He Jiashu is not even the kid

of the He family's eldest son.

He is my,

Lin Junrong's,

biological son.

He's watching his father

die now.

I heard it from my mom.

His cousin He Jiashu

is really his mom's son with another man.

The man just doesn't seem like a good person.

Is he really that kind of guy?

His dad is angered by him to death.

Stop pretending to be sick.

He Jiahao, listen.

Either ask your cousin to come out

or ask your dad

to give me the money.

- He Jiahao. -The only one.

Stop pretending.

Jiashu.

Stop it, Jiashu.

Jiashu!

Brat...

Stop it.

Stop it...

What?

Do you think

I won't dare to hit you?

He Jiashu.

Lin Junrong.

Sir.

My head hurts.

I can't straighten my back either.

Didn't you reach an agreement on compensation?

Have you gone back on your word?

This brat

beat me

but is only paying me this little.

That's unreasonable.

Okay.

Go get your injuries evaluated.

Come back here after that

and continue the negotiation.

No.

I didn't mean that.

We had a deal.

We had a deal.

Had a deal?

Yes.

Okay.

No more fighting.

If you do it again,

it won't be that easy.

I won't.

I won't.

I'll

obey the law

and won't give you any more trouble.

Here's the settlement agreement.

Take a look.

Sign it if it's okay.

Sir.

Are you Lin Junrong?

Yes,

I am.

You came to Xiqiao from Chaozhou?

Yes.

Someone called the police

to report you for extortion.

Stay and be investigated.

Sir,

please.

I was wrongly accused.

There's no such thing.

We'll know

if you've been wrongly accused after we investigate.

He Jiashu.

Someone is coming to pick you up.

Get your things and go.

Jiashu.

- What are you doing? - Jiashu!

Sit down.

Don't move.

Jiashu!

Sit down.

Don't move!

Don't move!

Even...

Even after beating me up, you're still angry?

Sit still.

Brat!

I'm your real father!

Explain it to them.

Don't move!

Where are you, Long?

I don't see you.

I'm at the martial arts school. I can't go there.

Come back alone.

What did you

come back for this time?

Uncle.

I remember when I was little,

you loved to bring us here for morning tea.

Dad.

Dad.

Dad.

My uncle took us for morning tea again.

We have your favorite shrimp dumplings.

Did your uncle

take you to eat again?

Dad.

Are you feeling better today?

Yes.

Hongxiao.

Don't worry.

I can take care of them.

Get well.

OK.

Dad.

Are you okay?

Hongxiao.

Dad.

I'll call the doctor.

Doctor.

Doctor.

Uncle.

Why is my sister-in-law like this?

She always stays in her hometown and ignores him.

Stop.

Jiashu.

Come on.

Eat the shrimp.

It's nutritious.

Come on.

Give me this.

Have some more.

Jiashu.

Shrimp.

[Jiashu]

Sorry, guys.

I won again.

I have to stop.

I've had terrible luck and keep losing.

How many rounds is this?

Your luck will come soon.

I'm going to visit Jiashu's father in the hospital.

I'm going to stop. Enjoy.

Is he hospitalized again?

Why is his health so bad?

You guys carry on.

I'm leaving.

I'm coming.

I just got here,

but are you leaving?

I don't see you every day,

so who knows where you've been slutting around?

Pretty girl.

You missed me, didn't you?

Not at all.

Rong just came, but you're leaving.

Now sit down and play a few more rounds.

Look at that.

Being in the southeast

and with a mountain behind you.

The feng shui is good.

You'll be lucky.

Stay

and play a few more rounds with me.

I'll give you the tiles you want.

Let's cooperate.

I guarantee you'll turn the tables.

Don't go back on your word.

Jiashu.

Jiashu.

Jiashu.

Why are you here?

Your mom went to play mahjong and ignored you again, didn't she?

Have you eaten yet?

Let's go.

Get your stuff.

I'll take you to eat something delicious.

Thanks, Uncle.

Why did you do so poorly this time?

Tell me.

Are you in love

or did you go to an internet cafe behind my back?

I didn't.

You didn't?

Then what's going on here?

He Jiashu.

Do you still want to go to North China University?

I've never thought about North China University.

That's all in your head.

Okay.

I'm afraid I can't sign

for you

if you have that attitude.

So what?

Anyway, you're not my dad.

You're in no position to control me.

Stop right there.

Where are you going?

Kneeling in the ancestral hall.

You'll only give me this punishment, won't you?

You don't need to say that.

I'll go alone.

Come back.

Come back.

[Final paper. He Hongguang]

I don't know

why you're always so reluctant to compromise.

You'd save yourself a lot of trouble

if you'd just compromise,

you know?

Got it.

Thanks for signing for me.

You're just

too stubborn.

I always thought you were like someone.

Who could I be like?

It's got to be you.

You...

What did you say?

Uncle.

I'm going back to study.

I'm going to join him.

Like me?

Uncle.

To be honest,

at that time, I even secretly thought

that it would be great if you were my father,

but I didn't realize

that I

couldn't even be the son of the He family.

Uncle.

I know you hate me,

but I have no reason to hate you.

Why did you

come back this time?

My mom died,

so I have to cancel her account.

Apart from that,

there's another reason.

It has to do with Jiahao.

Jiahao has nothing to do with you,

and neither does the He family.

I know,

but Jiahao is related to you,

so I need to tell you.

Jiahao

has persistent symptoms of depression,

and the doctor has prescribed medication for him.

These days,

I took him to do some exercise

and training

to help him recover and heal,

but that alone was not enough.

What Hao needs

is the support and understanding of his family.

Uncle.

Too many people in this family are already unhappy,

so I don't want Hao to be either.

You said I hated you,

but you were wrong.

I don't hate you

because, to me,

you're just a stranger.

I don't want a stranger

to interfere with my son's life.

I know

Hao is depressed,

but he's the way he is

because of you.

He feels sorry for you,

so he's been feeling guilty until now.

Only if you leave

can this be over

and Hao get better.

As his father,

I'm grateful to you

for being there for him these days,

but this has to end here.

Hao doesn't need you

in his future life.

You also said

you are not the son of the He family,

so we

are not a family.

I have some money.

Take it.

Please leave Xiqiao

and Hao

with your real father forever.

Shu.

I beg you.

Uncle.

Uncle.

Why aren't you in bed?

Your aunt doesn't allow me

to smoke in the room.

Why are you awake?

Did Hao keep you from sleeping?

He didn't.

I just came out to drink some water.

Thanks for taking care

of Hao these days.

Hao is my cousin,

so I should take care of him.

Uncle.

Thank you for taking me in.

Don't thank me.

We're family,

so this is your home.

It's not like taking you in.

I don't usually

have a good temper,

so if I've done something wrong,

just bear with me.

Uncle.

Thank you.

[Agricultural Bank of China]

The man

shouted

in front of everyone,

"I am He Jiashu's real father."

Hearing this,

He Jiashu knew that this would prove that he was born

by his mother for having an affair.

He was so angry that he beat that guy up.

He was really cruel.

That was his real dad,

but He Jiashu

showed no mercy.

And he

even knocked his dad's teeth out.

I didn't realize that.

The He family looked noble for so many years,

but they were just pretending.

In the end, this still happened to them.

That's enough.

Are you an actor?

Is it that much of a stretch?

What do you think?

Junli and the others were there

and saw it,

right?

Tell me.

Was it like this?

I'm not exaggerating.

But I heard

that He Hongguang

even locked him in his room.

Before,

I thought that the He family

just had fewer offspring,

but now,

they are either dead

or mentally ill.

It's like there's no one left in the family.

Nice.

What era is this? What do you mean, there's no one left?

People like you

are really boring.

I'm full.

He...

He seems cranky today.

Boring.

You guys didn't even eat these dishes.

Sorry.

The number you have dialed is not answered at the moment.

Please dial again later.

Sorry.

The number you have dialed...

Hello,

the user you have called is on the line.

Hao.

Are you hungry?

Come on.

Get up and eat something.

Hao.

There's a lot

of gossip

in the village these days,

so don't go out

in case you get upset.

By the way,

your father has asked

for leave from school for you.

You don't need to go there

for the next month.

What about Jiashu?

Just don't be stubborn with your dad.

Jiashu

is a hard-luck kid,

but there's nothing anyone can do about it.

Don't contact him.

By the way,

study

after dinner.

Or you can

take a nap

or rest for a while.

Don't play with your cell phone.

[Junyilong Sports Club]

This is my training program

for Hao.

Give it to him.

I won't.

Give him in person.

Wait.

Your uncle said you

have nothing to do with their family,

so what does it matter to him

if you stay in Xiqiao?

I've never seen anyone so unreasonable.

I finished canceling my mom's account,

and Hao got better,

so it's useless for me

to stay here.

What are you doing?

Do you really want to keep me?

I'm going to give you some souvenirs.

Heartless moron.

You left for eight years last time.

When you leave this time, don't disappear without any message.

I'll turn Chaozhou upside down

to find you

and beat you up.

Junli.

Do you want it?

No.

Have you seen him

since yesterday?

Who?

He Jiahao.

No.

He must have been locked up

by his dad

after what happened.

The He family treats him like a treasure.

Even when the wind blows,

they're afraid he'll be blown into the sky.

I heard from Mr. Zhang earlier

that his dad came to the school to take a leave of absence for him.

He said he seems to be sick

and needs to study at home.

What could he be sick of?

In my opinion,

it's all because he's locked up by his dad.

He does nothing but study

at home every day.

He must be going crazy,

right?

You don't want it?

[Junyilong Sports Club]

Hao is in much better shape these days.

When I'm gone,

take him to train

and exercise.

It's good for him.

Got it.

It's the first time I've seen you talk so much.

[Jiahao]

You're really not going to see him?
