Go Ahead
Episode 17
Are you moving back to Mr. Ling's place?
No.
Then are you going back to Singapore?
Haven't you already
joined the hospital's staff?
How can you be so self-willed?
You are already back here.
Just because of our conflict,
you are leaving?
You must follow your heart!
Don't take impulsive actions
because of others.
Can you do that?
I see.
You just don't understand, do you?
Why the hell are you messing around?
I'm not messing around.
This is not fun.
As a man near his 30s,
can you act like a grown-up?
You had a temper during the day
and refused to check my teeth. It's OK!
Then suddenly you are going back
to Singapore,
quitting your job without hesitation.
Do you have any sense of responsibility?
Fine, fine, fine! It was my fault!
I was too impulsive that day.
I lost my mind,
saying you guys were not my brothers.
I should reflect on myself.
I should never say anything like that.
I apologize.
Sorry.
You guys are my brothers, all right?
I'm not your brother.
It was good
to have
you guys back.
I was very happy, too.
But indeed, we can't get along with each other
like we did when we were young.
And you guys
always think you owe me something.
This makes me feel stressed.
Can you just
give me some time to accept the fact?
The last tenant left the suitcase
as well as some junk
in the balcony cabinet.
I have to throw them away.
So you are not leaving?
Why didn't you say that earlier?
You didn't ask me.
Li Jianjian! Ling Xiao!
Mingyue!
What happened?
Did you go to the supermarket?
Come on. Let me carry it for you.
I'll go back and leave you guys to talk.
Did you have a quarrel?
No.
We were having a heart-to-heart talk.
Then you two are good now?
I was thinking about creating
some opportunities for you to make peace.
Thank you.
Ling Xiao,
I bought lots of vegetables,
meat rolls and meatballs.
Let's have hot pot together on the weekend.
OK.
Let's go.
Hello, Zhuang Bei.
What's up?
You scared me to death!
Ziqiu,
I found the car
your mom was riding
last time.
It's a special car.
Special car?
I told the driver
about your story.
He checked itinerary receipts
and said he picked up you mom at Huaxing Road
and drove her to Blue Sea International Trade Center.
Ziqiu,
now that you know your mom is in the city,
you can go to Ling Xiao's father.
It may be easier
for cops to find a person.
Ziqiu,
do you hear me, Ziqiu?
Listen, I must go.
What happened?
Nothing. Zhuang Bei asked me to dinner.
I'll take a shower.
Welcome. How many guests do we have?
He's there.
Can, come here! Here!
Dad.
The food is well done.
You just come in time. Have some.
Why are you working so late?
Do you always have dinner at this hour?
Not always. It depends.
I try not eating.
You live alone yourself.
It worries me most
that you don't eat well.
Here, dip it in the sauce.
It's tasty.
No.
Can, you look slimmer.
You don't have to lose weight
like other girls.
Heath is more important.
Weren't you guys who thought I was chubby?
From my second year in junior high school,
my dinner
had nothing but boiled shrimps and vegetables.
It
It was my fault. It was my fault.
Come on, eat more now.
Come on.
What's the matter?
You didn't receive the WeChat transfer.
Here, take it.
You live alone.
It's better to have enough money.
No, I have money.
Your income is unstable.
Now the situation of our family finance is getting better.
Do you have to
work so hard to make money?
I think
you should get
a stable job.
If you are here to educate me,
Just stop it.
Last time,
I made it very clear to my mom.
Don't hold grudge against your mom.
You've been away from home
for three months
without even making a phone call.
Does it have to be like this?
Didn't she say
that I shouldn't come back home
if I weren't to listen to her
and find a job?
This is
You
Your mom just hopes you to live well.
She hopes me to make more money.
Isn't she always complaining at home?
If I knew it would be like this,
I should let you make more commercials
to earn more money and buy more properties
while you still had the ability.
Your mom
Sometimes, your mom
has a sharp tongue.
And she told my grandma that I was lazy.
Ever since I can remember,
I've been working hard
to shoot movies and commercials
to make money,
while other kids were studying hard.
After I reached puberty,
I had to drink
a large glass of lemonade every day
before going to bed.
Why?
Because I was hungry.
I was too hungry to sleep!
Previously, she took me with her
wherever she went.
What about now?
When others ask her about my job,
she's too embarrassed to answer them,
because she feels ashamed of me!
I just don't understand.
I've worked hard by myself
from the very beginning to this day.
I have nothing to be ashamed of!
This is
Have more. Dip it in the sauce.
All right, Dad.
Drive safely on your way home.
Can,
your mom's birthday is in a few days.
It's her 50th birthday.
According to the customs of our hometown,
we should celebrate it for her.
With relatives and friends there,
she'll feel more embarrassed
if I join you.
Can, she's your mother.
I see. I'll be there.
Besides,
weight management isn't the reason
why I didn't eat the sauce.
The reason is I'm allergic to satay sauce.
You forgot it.
You get up so early.
Then let's have breakfast.
You see, today,
I cooked so much food and brought it back.
Am I smart?
Give me some praises.
Why were you cooking
like thieving?
I have it hard every day.
My business has just opened.
I get my hands full every morning in the shop.
And I have to sneak in and cook breakfast like a thief.
I'm nearly
worn out.
By the way,
you've got
vitamin tablets, right?
Give me some to build up my health.
Buy them yourself.
I buy you food and drink every day.
How could you be so stingy?
Do you remember that
I gave you half the money
for grocery?
Brothers shouldn't square accounts in every detail.
You miser!
Have some soup, here.
Hello.
What's up?
Take it easy. Take it easy.
Which hospital?
OK.
OK. I'll be there soon.
Sir, excuse me. Stop the bus, please.
I can't. We're not at the stop.
It's an emergency. Do me a favor, please.
I can't stop on the overpass.
Tang Can, are you still at home?
Forget the toilet!
Go to my room right now.
Open the door and turn left
to the second drawer.
Grab my bank card
and go to Changgeng Hospital.
Ziqiu had an accident.
My dad said he was hit seriously.
Right now,
I'm farther and farther away
from Changgeng Hospital.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Changgeng Hospital.
That's right, Changgeng Hospital.
OK, OK, OK.
Sir, how much longer does it take?
Why the overpass is so long?
Take it easy, young lady.
We're almost there.
Sorry, sorry.
You have no manners!
Sir, let's go!
Hurry up!
How is it?
Where is Ziqiu?
Tell me!
When he was brought here,
he had blood all over his face.
The doctor said they had done their best.
Jianjian!
Li Jianjian!
I'm kidding, Li Jianjian!
Ziqiu is fine, Li Jianjian!
Don't cry.
Ziqiu.
Ziqiu is fine!
Ziqiu!
Li Jianjian, I'm kidding!
What happened?
Ziqiu.
I joked with her, saying that He Ziqiu
Ziqiu.
Jianjian, Ziqiu is fine.
Jianjian,
Ziqiu just passed out.
Jianjian!
Ziqiu is fine. He's not dead.
Jianjian!
He's not dead?
No, he isn't.
Then Tang Can
Tang Can talked rubbish.
I
I was just kidding you.
You
Jianjian, he's really fine.
You see, everything is normal.
Do you know the proper way to talk?
How could you
kid about this?
How could he ride a bike
after taking such a large dose of Valium?
You were lucky to hit the tree
and got a minor concussion.
If you had hit a car,
you should have died.
Take some rest
and stay in the hospital for two days for observation.
Don't move.
Thank you.
You are welcome.
If the patient vomits up,
remember to notify the doctor.
Sure, I'll ring the bell.
Thank you.
Why did you take the Valium?
I didn't take any Valium.
Then what did you take?
Just now, the nurse said
they found lots of Valium
in your blood.
Think it over.
What are the pills?
Vitamin A and B and Carotene,
for daily health care.
He really gets all varieties of pills.
Take two pills of each kind.
More supplements are definitely better.
No wonder he refused to give me the pills.
He always stays up at night.
I thought he was reading novels.
It turns out he couldn't sleep.
Mr. Ling.
We are leaving, Ziqiu.
Ling Xiao, stay here with him.
If he throws up,
call the doctor immediately.
All right.
I'll go back home to cook some food
and bring it over here later.
OK.
How about you? Are you going back to the police station?
I have to get back to work.
I want to have a word with Ling Xiao.
OK. Then I go back home to cook the meal.
Son, you don't want to sleep
or you just can't sleep?
I can sleep, but not for long.
I take a nap when I have time during the day.
Why didn't you tell me?
Every time I called to ask your situation,
you just said you were fine
and everything was fine.
Is everything fine in this way?
I didn't want you to worry about me.
I'm more worried about you now.
Besides,
your mother called me yesterday.
She said you told her
that you came back this time to visit me.
Is it true?
You've started work now.
Can you really fool her in this matter?
She won't agree.
Even if she won't agree,
you must tell her the truth.
How long can you fool her?
Fine, I'll make a phone call
to have a talk with her.
You went to university in Singapore
because you had to take care of her.
I had no other option, so I agreed.
Besides,
I still have your guardianship.
Dad, I'm an adult now.
You lost my guardianship a long time ago.
You know my mom's temper.
Whatever you say will be in vain.
Let me talk to her.
I can't escape from this.
You talk to her.
You are an adult now.
It's best to do it yourself.
You must talk to her in a proper way.
Don't piss her off.
Well, son, I have something to discuss with you.
Son, no matter what happens in the future,
good or bad,
can you just tell your father?
You've grown up now
and I can't help you much.
But, I should know
what you've been suffering from.
All right?
OK, just go back.
I have work to do.
Go back.
Why are you crying?
No.
Dad told me.
You thought I was dead
and cried like hell in the corridor outside.
I just felt
if you were dead,
I should cry aloud. That's the proper thing to do.
The accident is really worthwhile.
How can you say things like that?
Don't pinch my nose! Don't do that!
You are crazy.
What's wrong with Ling Xiao?
How do I know?
You two live together.
How could you not know?
He doesn't
tell me everything.
If you don't tell anything to others,
you get mental problems easily.
So you know that.
When we were young,
he told a lot of things to you, didn't he?
But now,
you just don't want to listen to him.
Li Jianjian wants to know
why you can't sleep
at such a young age.
You also want to know, don't you?
My nose! Nose! Nose!
Cut it out! His wound may crack!
It's not a big deal.
Just a sleep disorder.
I asked the doctor
and he said
it occurred a lot among young people.
And you,
you get older, but not cleverer,
taking pills at will without even knowing what they are.
Now you are blaming me, right?
If you had put those pills in their bottles,
who would have taken them?
Why did you
put the Valium
in a bottle for vitamins?
At first,
I didn't want
Chengzi and my mom know about it.
Why?
Because in my family,
I'm the one who can't get sick.
Thank you.
Your fruit tea.
Not coffee?
Drinking coffee during the day to refresh yourself
and taking sleeping pills at night to sleep,
this is a vicious circle.
You have to stop drinking coffee.
Our Jianjian
is as caring as she was
in her childhood.
And she's more experienced now,
like a grown-up.
Of course.
I can deal with business myself now.
My small studio
couldn't earn me much money right now,
but I like the job.
As long as I work hard,
there is no problem supporting the family.
In the future, I'll be able to
take care of my dad and yours.
Look at you. So proud of yourself.
Don't touch my head.
I'm not a kid anymore.
In my eyes,
you are always
the little girl
who bent over to draw
in front of the noodles restaurant.
You just looked smart.
But in fact,
a stranger could take you home
with some fried pork chops.
You idiot!
How about you?
You almost went with a stranger
because of a small sugar figurine.
Don't say this!
I've already forgotten it and you are bringing it up again!
Is Singapore fun?
I haven't been there before.
I didn't have much fun there,
because I was busy studying
and taking care of my mom and Chengzi.
Every day,
I went back and forth among several places.
After I began to work,
I was in no fit state to entertain myself.
I was very busy after graduation.
Later, we had less contact with each other.
So I know little
about your life.
Tell me when you are free.
What do you want to know?
Do you have a girlfriend?
No.
Seriously?
It's true.
But I like a girl.
What does she look like? Is she pretty?
Very pretty.
And very cute.
I haven't seen her anyway.
You can say whatever you like.
Is she your schoolmate?
You have nothing else to ask?
How did you get burned there?
I cooked some porridge
and failed to hold the bowl firmly. It knocked over.
The whole bowl
fell on my shoulder by accident.
But I didn't feel burned at that moment,
so I cleaned up the pieces of the bowl first.
Later, when I went to the bathroom
to take a shower,
I finally found that my skin had stuck to the clothes.
I can imagine the pain.
Don't worry, it doesn't hurt anymore.
I said don't touch my head!
Don't you know there are three bunches of fire
on a kid's head?
Oh, dear!
How did you end up like this?
What happened to your hand?
Just a scratch.
It can't touch the water for several days.
The flowers are from Tang Can.
She wishes you a quick recovery.
Why doesn't she come by herself?
She doesn't have the nerves to meet you guys.
Come on, don't be mad with her.
I criticized her.
She's a drama queen
who's ready to act at anytime and anywhere.
I'm really not mad with her.
I have to thank her.
Without this incident,
I still thought Li Jianjian
really hated me.
What's the logic?
Is your brain hurt?
A little. Just a little bit.
Here's the coffee.
Here's the coffee.
Iced Americano.
Thank you.
It sounds bitter.
Where's my coffee?
How can you drink coffee when you are like this?
What does that matter?
By the way,
Li Jianjian even adds sugar
to Caramel Macchiato.
That's because life is too bitter.
I put the spare clothes and toiletries
for you and Ling Xiao
in the bag.
I have an interview this evening.
But I can stay here with you.
No.
My brother is here. It's fine.
Is Ling Xiao really fine
with his sleep disorder?
How can he be fine when he couldn't sleep?
Do you think
it has anything to do with his mom?
Of course it has.
You know
why he went to university in Singapore.
Because of his mom.
I knew it was weird
that his mom
suddenly allowed him to come back.
Take care. Your brother
may go back one day.
Isn't his younger sister
very clingy to him?
Why are you staring at me?
I'm just telling the truth.
I was not a baby a long time ago!
He has legs,
so he can go wherever he wants to go.
And boys are outgoing.
Maybe one day,
he'll go with
a woman from nowhere.
Right?
You just can't help it.
Where did you park the car?
Across the way.
You go back. I'm leaving.
OK. Take care.
Drive safely.
Just go!
Give me a bite.
It will give you excessive internal heat.
Are you hungry?
Dad brought you porridge.
Have you drunk it all?
Seeing you guys eating food,
I feel bored
without anything in my mouth.
Let's go home tonight
and come back here tomorrow.
You have to be hospitalized for two days
until you are all right.
The thing is if I don't go back to the shop,
no one makes desserts.
Put your career aside
and regain your health.
I remember when we were young,
the sky wasn't like this.
Do you remember?
When we were young, we enjoyed the cool air in the summer in the neighborhood.
Dad told us that
except for the moon in the sky,
the brightest star
was the Great White Golden Star.
I can't see anything.
Of course you can't.
Now the city is illuminated by light.
It's different from it was
when we were young.
Is it the same in Singapore?
It's also very bright,
unless you go to the mountains
where there is no light,
or when the weather is good.
Let's go to the mountains
to Aunt He Lan's place.
I'm not going there.
Her toilet
sits next to the pigpen.
Her family stopped raising pigs a long time ago!
That doesn't make it OK.
We shouldn't bother them.
You are right.
When I call them in the spring festival and other festivals,
I feel I have nothing to talk with them.
It's normal.
You don't live together.
What do you have to talk?
You can only talk about
your childhood
again and again.
Have I told you?
During my first days in UK,
I always wanted to come back.
Language barrier
and different eating habits were killing me.
I fought with Zhao Huaguang every day.
Every time I saw a plane
flying over the sky,
I wanted to jump on it and get back.
You told us about it.
And I can understand you well.
Just like all the TV series say,
those who born with a silver spoon
will never inherit the family wealth quietly.
I hope to do them a favor and inherit the wealth,
but no one comes to me for the favor.
I want your favor.
All the money I make in the future
will be yours.
No, no, no!
You should never believe a man's promise.
Talk is cheap.
Since you are so smart,
just hurry up and dump that Shuran.
Why should I dump him? We are good.
Yeah, hurry up and dump him.
He is not a good person at first sight.
Why's he not a good person?
We've known each other for years.
I know everything about him.
You know everything about him?
A crazy man like him
can never be a good husband.
I just want a sweetheart,
not a husband.
You really like him?
Yes.
Think it over.
Do you sincerely like him?
Anyway, I'm happy with him.
That's bullshit!
What?
You brother said he's a piece of shit!
Bullshit!
My brother won't say the word "shit"!
Ask him yourself!
Ling Xiao!
Is he slandering you?
Am I slandering you?
Of course you are.
Don't beat me when you are like this.
Shouldn't I beat you?
Give me a bite of the sweet potato.
No way!
Why not?
It will give you excessive internal heat.
Just a bite.
Just a bite.
No!
Are you kidding me?
I'm not messing with you. Here you are.
Gross!
If I can't eat it, then no one can.
Anyone who sits on the bench eats shit!
Give me a hand!
Get up. Get up.
I can't stand on my legs.
No way!
Sit down. Sit down. Sit down.
Sit down.
Seriously?
Is it fun to kid me like this?
It's 38.5 degree.
Don't worry. When you have inflammation,
it's normal to have a fever.
Let him take the pills.
Drink more water and see what's going on.
All right, thank you.
You are welcome.
Take the pills.
Come on. Take the pills.
Drink more. Drink more.
The doctor said you must drink more water.
Enough, enough.
Why don't you sleep a while?
I'm not sleepy. I'm a night person.
You should sleep.
You look so filial now.
Don't take advantage of me.
The word "filial" can't be used here.
Sleep.
Mingyue also brought you a book?
It's the one beside my bed.
When I can't sleep,
I read the book.
It's a picture book. You won't feel tired reading it.
The book you like?
What is it about?
It's about two lonely kids
trying to escape the city they live in.
He's very silent
and has never greeted others.
All my classmates think
he's a weirdo.
But I think he's all right.
Sometimes,
I also don't want to talk.
I often see him
reading books quietly
in a corner of the bookstore,
completely ignoring the world around him.
I don't know why
I always meet him
at all kinds of places.
He looks
as withdrawn as I am.
Hello, could you check out
which ward He Ziqiu is in?
Sure. Wait a moment, please.
Thank you.
Ling Xiao!
No need to check out. Thank you.
Which ward Ziqiu is in?
I searched for a long time yet failed to find it.
Come with me.
OK.
I haven't even taken care of my dad
like this before!
Take it easy!
Don't rub my wound!
Why do you have so much to say?
Raise your head.
Li Jianjian!
Shuran!
You come here so early!
Why are you grabbing me?
You haven't finished your job!
Have a seat.
I have to clean his body.
OK.
Are you OK?
Fine. I'm fine.
Is Ziqiu all right?
Do I look all right to you?
Mind your tone!
By the way, I bring you a gift.
What's inside the box?
I made it myself.
Ling Xiao!
Open it and see.
Thank you.
Why don't I know this?
I made it in recent days.
It's the only one.
What's that?
How can we accept such a gift?
Don't mention it.
Your brother is like my brother.
Thank you so much!
You are welcome.
Well, Patient 12,
take your temperature.
It's 37.6 degree. A little bit too high.
You are almost fine.
When can I leave hospital?
Wait till the doctor finishes
making the rounds of the wards.
What is he doing?
Come on. I didn't clean this side.
Lie down. Lie down.
I haven't finished this side.
No.
I haven't finished that side.
This side isn't clean. Don't move!
Making art.
He's making art. Making art.
Ling Xiao, where are you going?
I can take you over.
Do you have time now?
Yes.
I work at night.
It's almost noon.
Let me treat you to lunch.
Go. I have something to ask you.
OK.
Anyway, there were all kinds of people
in the sculpture forum.
Many of them kept criticizing me specially,
saying my works were meaningless
and I was playing to the gallery.
If Li Jianjian
hadn't encouraged me to hold on,
I would have changed my major
because of the blow.
I was asking you
why you like Li Jianjian.
All of these are the reasons.
I can't find a reason
not to like her.
But she hasn't got
the waist-hip ratio that catches your eye.
You are right.
But it doesn't matter.
What I want
is a soul mate.
Physical attraction
can never last long.
So you're admitting that
she's not attractive to you.
Of course she is.
Last time, I met her
at the sculpture exhibition.
I felt she was so alive,
as if she was growing freely in the wild.
And I was touched.
You don't have a younger sister, do you?
I'm the only child,
so do my parents.
So I have no cousins, either.
Therefore, when you met Li Jianjian,
you just hoped
she could be at your home.
That's right.
At that moment,
I felt Li Jianjian
should be at my home,
bringing vitality to the place.
How interesting will that be!
I can understand you.
Many only children
want to have
a brother or sister
to play together. That's really lively.
That's not what I meant.
I really like her.
Think again.
You two can be good friends.
But as for starting a relationship, you have to reconsider it.
It's just a relationship. What do I have to reconsider?
Reconsider carefully
whether it is worthwhile
losing a good friend
who may touch your soul
In exchange for a short relationship.
Let's have lunch.
Episode 17
Are you moving back to Mr. Ling's place?
No.
Then are you going back to Singapore?
Haven't you already
joined the hospital's staff?
How can you be so self-willed?
You are already back here.
Just because of our conflict,
you are leaving?
You must follow your heart!
Don't take impulsive actions
because of others.
Can you do that?
I see.
You just don't understand, do you?
Why the hell are you messing around?
I'm not messing around.
This is not fun.
As a man near his 30s,
can you act like a grown-up?
You had a temper during the day
and refused to check my teeth. It's OK!
Then suddenly you are going back
to Singapore,
quitting your job without hesitation.
Do you have any sense of responsibility?
Fine, fine, fine! It was my fault!
I was too impulsive that day.
I lost my mind,
saying you guys were not my brothers.
I should reflect on myself.
I should never say anything like that.
I apologize.
Sorry.
You guys are my brothers, all right?
I'm not your brother.
It was good
to have
you guys back.
I was very happy, too.
But indeed, we can't get along with each other
like we did when we were young.
And you guys
always think you owe me something.
This makes me feel stressed.
Can you just
give me some time to accept the fact?
The last tenant left the suitcase
as well as some junk
in the balcony cabinet.
I have to throw them away.
So you are not leaving?
Why didn't you say that earlier?
You didn't ask me.
Li Jianjian! Ling Xiao!
Mingyue!
What happened?
Did you go to the supermarket?
Come on. Let me carry it for you.
I'll go back and leave you guys to talk.
Did you have a quarrel?
No.
We were having a heart-to-heart talk.
Then you two are good now?
I was thinking about creating
some opportunities for you to make peace.
Thank you.
Ling Xiao,
I bought lots of vegetables,
meat rolls and meatballs.
Let's have hot pot together on the weekend.
OK.
Let's go.
Hello, Zhuang Bei.
What's up?
You scared me to death!
Ziqiu,
I found the car
your mom was riding
last time.
It's a special car.
Special car?
I told the driver
about your story.
He checked itinerary receipts
and said he picked up you mom at Huaxing Road
and drove her to Blue Sea International Trade Center.
Ziqiu,
now that you know your mom is in the city,
you can go to Ling Xiao's father.
It may be easier
for cops to find a person.
Ziqiu,
do you hear me, Ziqiu?
Listen, I must go.
What happened?
Nothing. Zhuang Bei asked me to dinner.
I'll take a shower.
Welcome. How many guests do we have?
He's there.
Can, come here! Here!
Dad.
The food is well done.
You just come in time. Have some.
Why are you working so late?
Do you always have dinner at this hour?
Not always. It depends.
I try not eating.
You live alone yourself.
It worries me most
that you don't eat well.
Here, dip it in the sauce.
It's tasty.
No.
Can, you look slimmer.
You don't have to lose weight
like other girls.
Heath is more important.
Weren't you guys who thought I was chubby?
From my second year in junior high school,
my dinner
had nothing but boiled shrimps and vegetables.
It
It was my fault. It was my fault.
Come on, eat more now.
Come on.
What's the matter?
You didn't receive the WeChat transfer.
Here, take it.
You live alone.
It's better to have enough money.
No, I have money.
Your income is unstable.
Now the situation of our family finance is getting better.
Do you have to
work so hard to make money?
I think
you should get
a stable job.
If you are here to educate me,
Just stop it.
Last time,
I made it very clear to my mom.
Don't hold grudge against your mom.
You've been away from home
for three months
without even making a phone call.
Does it have to be like this?
Didn't she say
that I shouldn't come back home
if I weren't to listen to her
and find a job?
This is
You
Your mom just hopes you to live well.
She hopes me to make more money.
Isn't she always complaining at home?
If I knew it would be like this,
I should let you make more commercials
to earn more money and buy more properties
while you still had the ability.
Your mom
Sometimes, your mom
has a sharp tongue.
And she told my grandma that I was lazy.
Ever since I can remember,
I've been working hard
to shoot movies and commercials
to make money,
while other kids were studying hard.
After I reached puberty,
I had to drink
a large glass of lemonade every day
before going to bed.
Why?
Because I was hungry.
I was too hungry to sleep!
Previously, she took me with her
wherever she went.
What about now?
When others ask her about my job,
she's too embarrassed to answer them,
because she feels ashamed of me!
I just don't understand.
I've worked hard by myself
from the very beginning to this day.
I have nothing to be ashamed of!
This is
Have more. Dip it in the sauce.
All right, Dad.
Drive safely on your way home.
Can,
your mom's birthday is in a few days.
It's her 50th birthday.
According to the customs of our hometown,
we should celebrate it for her.
With relatives and friends there,
she'll feel more embarrassed
if I join you.
Can, she's your mother.
I see. I'll be there.
Besides,
weight management isn't the reason
why I didn't eat the sauce.
The reason is I'm allergic to satay sauce.
You forgot it.
You get up so early.
Then let's have breakfast.
You see, today,
I cooked so much food and brought it back.
Am I smart?
Give me some praises.
Why were you cooking
like thieving?
I have it hard every day.
My business has just opened.
I get my hands full every morning in the shop.
And I have to sneak in and cook breakfast like a thief.
I'm nearly
worn out.
By the way,
you've got
vitamin tablets, right?
Give me some to build up my health.
Buy them yourself.
I buy you food and drink every day.
How could you be so stingy?
Do you remember that
I gave you half the money
for grocery?
Brothers shouldn't square accounts in every detail.
You miser!
Have some soup, here.
Hello.
What's up?
Take it easy. Take it easy.
Which hospital?
OK.
OK. I'll be there soon.
Sir, excuse me. Stop the bus, please.
I can't. We're not at the stop.
It's an emergency. Do me a favor, please.
I can't stop on the overpass.
Tang Can, are you still at home?
Forget the toilet!
Go to my room right now.
Open the door and turn left
to the second drawer.
Grab my bank card
and go to Changgeng Hospital.
Ziqiu had an accident.
My dad said he was hit seriously.
Right now,
I'm farther and farther away
from Changgeng Hospital.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Changgeng Hospital.
That's right, Changgeng Hospital.
OK, OK, OK.
Sir, how much longer does it take?
Why the overpass is so long?
Take it easy, young lady.
We're almost there.
Sorry, sorry.
You have no manners!
Sir, let's go!
Hurry up!
How is it?
Where is Ziqiu?
Tell me!
When he was brought here,
he had blood all over his face.
The doctor said they had done their best.
Jianjian!
Li Jianjian!
I'm kidding, Li Jianjian!
Ziqiu is fine, Li Jianjian!
Don't cry.
Ziqiu.
Ziqiu is fine!
Ziqiu!
Li Jianjian, I'm kidding!
What happened?
Ziqiu.
I joked with her, saying that He Ziqiu
Ziqiu.
Jianjian, Ziqiu is fine.
Jianjian,
Ziqiu just passed out.
Jianjian!
Ziqiu is fine. He's not dead.
Jianjian!
He's not dead?
No, he isn't.
Then Tang Can
Tang Can talked rubbish.
I
I was just kidding you.
You
Jianjian, he's really fine.
You see, everything is normal.
Do you know the proper way to talk?
How could you
kid about this?
How could he ride a bike
after taking such a large dose of Valium?
You were lucky to hit the tree
and got a minor concussion.
If you had hit a car,
you should have died.
Take some rest
and stay in the hospital for two days for observation.
Don't move.
Thank you.
You are welcome.
If the patient vomits up,
remember to notify the doctor.
Sure, I'll ring the bell.
Thank you.
Why did you take the Valium?
I didn't take any Valium.
Then what did you take?
Just now, the nurse said
they found lots of Valium
in your blood.
Think it over.
What are the pills?
Vitamin A and B and Carotene,
for daily health care.
He really gets all varieties of pills.
Take two pills of each kind.
More supplements are definitely better.
No wonder he refused to give me the pills.
He always stays up at night.
I thought he was reading novels.
It turns out he couldn't sleep.
Mr. Ling.
We are leaving, Ziqiu.
Ling Xiao, stay here with him.
If he throws up,
call the doctor immediately.
All right.
I'll go back home to cook some food
and bring it over here later.
OK.
How about you? Are you going back to the police station?
I have to get back to work.
I want to have a word with Ling Xiao.
OK. Then I go back home to cook the meal.
Son, you don't want to sleep
or you just can't sleep?
I can sleep, but not for long.
I take a nap when I have time during the day.
Why didn't you tell me?
Every time I called to ask your situation,
you just said you were fine
and everything was fine.
Is everything fine in this way?
I didn't want you to worry about me.
I'm more worried about you now.
Besides,
your mother called me yesterday.
She said you told her
that you came back this time to visit me.
Is it true?
You've started work now.
Can you really fool her in this matter?
She won't agree.
Even if she won't agree,
you must tell her the truth.
How long can you fool her?
Fine, I'll make a phone call
to have a talk with her.
You went to university in Singapore
because you had to take care of her.
I had no other option, so I agreed.
Besides,
I still have your guardianship.
Dad, I'm an adult now.
You lost my guardianship a long time ago.
You know my mom's temper.
Whatever you say will be in vain.
Let me talk to her.
I can't escape from this.
You talk to her.
You are an adult now.
It's best to do it yourself.
You must talk to her in a proper way.
Don't piss her off.
Well, son, I have something to discuss with you.
Son, no matter what happens in the future,
good or bad,
can you just tell your father?
You've grown up now
and I can't help you much.
But, I should know
what you've been suffering from.
All right?
OK, just go back.
I have work to do.
Go back.
Why are you crying?
No.
Dad told me.
You thought I was dead
and cried like hell in the corridor outside.
I just felt
if you were dead,
I should cry aloud. That's the proper thing to do.
The accident is really worthwhile.
How can you say things like that?
Don't pinch my nose! Don't do that!
You are crazy.
What's wrong with Ling Xiao?
How do I know?
You two live together.
How could you not know?
He doesn't
tell me everything.
If you don't tell anything to others,
you get mental problems easily.
So you know that.
When we were young,
he told a lot of things to you, didn't he?
But now,
you just don't want to listen to him.
Li Jianjian wants to know
why you can't sleep
at such a young age.
You also want to know, don't you?
My nose! Nose! Nose!
Cut it out! His wound may crack!
It's not a big deal.
Just a sleep disorder.
I asked the doctor
and he said
it occurred a lot among young people.
And you,
you get older, but not cleverer,
taking pills at will without even knowing what they are.
Now you are blaming me, right?
If you had put those pills in their bottles,
who would have taken them?
Why did you
put the Valium
in a bottle for vitamins?
At first,
I didn't want
Chengzi and my mom know about it.
Why?
Because in my family,
I'm the one who can't get sick.
Thank you.
Your fruit tea.
Not coffee?
Drinking coffee during the day to refresh yourself
and taking sleeping pills at night to sleep,
this is a vicious circle.
You have to stop drinking coffee.
Our Jianjian
is as caring as she was
in her childhood.
And she's more experienced now,
like a grown-up.
Of course.
I can deal with business myself now.
My small studio
couldn't earn me much money right now,
but I like the job.
As long as I work hard,
there is no problem supporting the family.
In the future, I'll be able to
take care of my dad and yours.
Look at you. So proud of yourself.
Don't touch my head.
I'm not a kid anymore.
In my eyes,
you are always
the little girl
who bent over to draw
in front of the noodles restaurant.
You just looked smart.
But in fact,
a stranger could take you home
with some fried pork chops.
You idiot!
How about you?
You almost went with a stranger
because of a small sugar figurine.
Don't say this!
I've already forgotten it and you are bringing it up again!
Is Singapore fun?
I haven't been there before.
I didn't have much fun there,
because I was busy studying
and taking care of my mom and Chengzi.
Every day,
I went back and forth among several places.
After I began to work,
I was in no fit state to entertain myself.
I was very busy after graduation.
Later, we had less contact with each other.
So I know little
about your life.
Tell me when you are free.
What do you want to know?
Do you have a girlfriend?
No.
Seriously?
It's true.
But I like a girl.
What does she look like? Is she pretty?
Very pretty.
And very cute.
I haven't seen her anyway.
You can say whatever you like.
Is she your schoolmate?
You have nothing else to ask?
How did you get burned there?
I cooked some porridge
and failed to hold the bowl firmly. It knocked over.
The whole bowl
fell on my shoulder by accident.
But I didn't feel burned at that moment,
so I cleaned up the pieces of the bowl first.
Later, when I went to the bathroom
to take a shower,
I finally found that my skin had stuck to the clothes.
I can imagine the pain.
Don't worry, it doesn't hurt anymore.
I said don't touch my head!
Don't you know there are three bunches of fire
on a kid's head?
Oh, dear!
How did you end up like this?
What happened to your hand?
Just a scratch.
It can't touch the water for several days.
The flowers are from Tang Can.
She wishes you a quick recovery.
Why doesn't she come by herself?
She doesn't have the nerves to meet you guys.
Come on, don't be mad with her.
I criticized her.
She's a drama queen
who's ready to act at anytime and anywhere.
I'm really not mad with her.
I have to thank her.
Without this incident,
I still thought Li Jianjian
really hated me.
What's the logic?
Is your brain hurt?
A little. Just a little bit.
Here's the coffee.
Here's the coffee.
Iced Americano.
Thank you.
It sounds bitter.
Where's my coffee?
How can you drink coffee when you are like this?
What does that matter?
By the way,
Li Jianjian even adds sugar
to Caramel Macchiato.
That's because life is too bitter.
I put the spare clothes and toiletries
for you and Ling Xiao
in the bag.
I have an interview this evening.
But I can stay here with you.
No.
My brother is here. It's fine.
Is Ling Xiao really fine
with his sleep disorder?
How can he be fine when he couldn't sleep?
Do you think
it has anything to do with his mom?
Of course it has.
You know
why he went to university in Singapore.
Because of his mom.
I knew it was weird
that his mom
suddenly allowed him to come back.
Take care. Your brother
may go back one day.
Isn't his younger sister
very clingy to him?
Why are you staring at me?
I'm just telling the truth.
I was not a baby a long time ago!
He has legs,
so he can go wherever he wants to go.
And boys are outgoing.
Maybe one day,
he'll go with
a woman from nowhere.
Right?
You just can't help it.
Where did you park the car?
Across the way.
You go back. I'm leaving.
OK. Take care.
Drive safely.
Just go!
Give me a bite.
It will give you excessive internal heat.
Are you hungry?
Dad brought you porridge.
Have you drunk it all?
Seeing you guys eating food,
I feel bored
without anything in my mouth.
Let's go home tonight
and come back here tomorrow.
You have to be hospitalized for two days
until you are all right.
The thing is if I don't go back to the shop,
no one makes desserts.
Put your career aside
and regain your health.
I remember when we were young,
the sky wasn't like this.
Do you remember?
When we were young, we enjoyed the cool air in the summer in the neighborhood.
Dad told us that
except for the moon in the sky,
the brightest star
was the Great White Golden Star.
I can't see anything.
Of course you can't.
Now the city is illuminated by light.
It's different from it was
when we were young.
Is it the same in Singapore?
It's also very bright,
unless you go to the mountains
where there is no light,
or when the weather is good.
Let's go to the mountains
to Aunt He Lan's place.
I'm not going there.
Her toilet
sits next to the pigpen.
Her family stopped raising pigs a long time ago!
That doesn't make it OK.
We shouldn't bother them.
You are right.
When I call them in the spring festival and other festivals,
I feel I have nothing to talk with them.
It's normal.
You don't live together.
What do you have to talk?
You can only talk about
your childhood
again and again.
Have I told you?
During my first days in UK,
I always wanted to come back.
Language barrier
and different eating habits were killing me.
I fought with Zhao Huaguang every day.
Every time I saw a plane
flying over the sky,
I wanted to jump on it and get back.
You told us about it.
And I can understand you well.
Just like all the TV series say,
those who born with a silver spoon
will never inherit the family wealth quietly.
I hope to do them a favor and inherit the wealth,
but no one comes to me for the favor.
I want your favor.
All the money I make in the future
will be yours.
No, no, no!
You should never believe a man's promise.
Talk is cheap.
Since you are so smart,
just hurry up and dump that Shuran.
Why should I dump him? We are good.
Yeah, hurry up and dump him.
He is not a good person at first sight.
Why's he not a good person?
We've known each other for years.
I know everything about him.
You know everything about him?
A crazy man like him
can never be a good husband.
I just want a sweetheart,
not a husband.
You really like him?
Yes.
Think it over.
Do you sincerely like him?
Anyway, I'm happy with him.
That's bullshit!
What?
You brother said he's a piece of shit!
Bullshit!
My brother won't say the word "shit"!
Ask him yourself!
Ling Xiao!
Is he slandering you?
Am I slandering you?
Of course you are.
Don't beat me when you are like this.
Shouldn't I beat you?
Give me a bite of the sweet potato.
No way!
Why not?
It will give you excessive internal heat.
Just a bite.
Just a bite.
No!
Are you kidding me?
I'm not messing with you. Here you are.
Gross!
If I can't eat it, then no one can.
Anyone who sits on the bench eats shit!
Give me a hand!
Get up. Get up.
I can't stand on my legs.
No way!
Sit down. Sit down. Sit down.
Sit down.
Seriously?
Is it fun to kid me like this?
It's 38.5 degree.
Don't worry. When you have inflammation,
it's normal to have a fever.
Let him take the pills.
Drink more water and see what's going on.
All right, thank you.
You are welcome.
Take the pills.
Come on. Take the pills.
Drink more. Drink more.
The doctor said you must drink more water.
Enough, enough.
Why don't you sleep a while?
I'm not sleepy. I'm a night person.
You should sleep.
You look so filial now.
Don't take advantage of me.
The word "filial" can't be used here.
Sleep.
Mingyue also brought you a book?
It's the one beside my bed.
When I can't sleep,
I read the book.
It's a picture book. You won't feel tired reading it.
The book you like?
What is it about?
It's about two lonely kids
trying to escape the city they live in.
He's very silent
and has never greeted others.
All my classmates think
he's a weirdo.
But I think he's all right.
Sometimes,
I also don't want to talk.
I often see him
reading books quietly
in a corner of the bookstore,
completely ignoring the world around him.
I don't know why
I always meet him
at all kinds of places.
He looks
as withdrawn as I am.
Hello, could you check out
which ward He Ziqiu is in?
Sure. Wait a moment, please.
Thank you.
Ling Xiao!
No need to check out. Thank you.
Which ward Ziqiu is in?
I searched for a long time yet failed to find it.
Come with me.
OK.
I haven't even taken care of my dad
like this before!
Take it easy!
Don't rub my wound!
Why do you have so much to say?
Raise your head.
Li Jianjian!
Shuran!
You come here so early!
Why are you grabbing me?
You haven't finished your job!
Have a seat.
I have to clean his body.
OK.
Are you OK?
Fine. I'm fine.
Is Ziqiu all right?
Do I look all right to you?
Mind your tone!
By the way, I bring you a gift.
What's inside the box?
I made it myself.
Ling Xiao!
Open it and see.
Thank you.
Why don't I know this?
I made it in recent days.
It's the only one.
What's that?
How can we accept such a gift?
Don't mention it.
Your brother is like my brother.
Thank you so much!
You are welcome.
Well, Patient 12,
take your temperature.
It's 37.6 degree. A little bit too high.
You are almost fine.
When can I leave hospital?
Wait till the doctor finishes
making the rounds of the wards.
What is he doing?
Come on. I didn't clean this side.
Lie down. Lie down.
I haven't finished this side.
No.
I haven't finished that side.
This side isn't clean. Don't move!
Making art.
He's making art. Making art.
Ling Xiao, where are you going?
I can take you over.
Do you have time now?
Yes.
I work at night.
It's almost noon.
Let me treat you to lunch.
Go. I have something to ask you.
OK.
Anyway, there were all kinds of people
in the sculpture forum.
Many of them kept criticizing me specially,
saying my works were meaningless
and I was playing to the gallery.
If Li Jianjian
hadn't encouraged me to hold on,
I would have changed my major
because of the blow.
I was asking you
why you like Li Jianjian.
All of these are the reasons.
I can't find a reason
not to like her.
But she hasn't got
the waist-hip ratio that catches your eye.
You are right.
But it doesn't matter.
What I want
is a soul mate.
Physical attraction
can never last long.
So you're admitting that
she's not attractive to you.
Of course she is.
Last time, I met her
at the sculpture exhibition.
I felt she was so alive,
as if she was growing freely in the wild.
And I was touched.
You don't have a younger sister, do you?
I'm the only child,
so do my parents.
So I have no cousins, either.
Therefore, when you met Li Jianjian,
you just hoped
she could be at your home.
That's right.
At that moment,
I felt Li Jianjian
should be at my home,
bringing vitality to the place.
How interesting will that be!
I can understand you.
Many only children
want to have
a brother or sister
to play together. That's really lively.
That's not what I meant.
I really like her.
Think again.
You two can be good friends.
But as for starting a relationship, you have to reconsider it.
It's just a relationship. What do I have to reconsider?
Reconsider carefully
whether it is worthwhile
losing a good friend
who may touch your soul
In exchange for a short relationship.
Let's have lunch.
