Fireworks of My Heart (2023) s01e29 Episode Script

(Adapted from the web novel "Waiting for You in a City")
(Fireworks of My Heart)
(Episode 29)
Aunt, Uncle.
Qin Qin, you're back.
Come on.
Dinner is ready.
Song Yan didn't even eat
and went back to his brigade in such a hurry.
Seriously.
Where's Zhai Miao?
She went back to school.
Shouldn't she be looking for a job now?
Yes.
I wonder how it turned out.
Here.
I can help myself.
It's nothing, my child.
Let me get it for you.
Don't be shy.
Is this enough?
Yes, thank you, Uncle.
Girls don't eat much.
Eat more.
You have to try these chicken wings.
I marinated them for two hours.
They're very flavorful.
Okay.
Thank you, Aunt.
You're welcome.
We made them especially for you.
They're made with so much care.
Why isn't anyone serving me?
I'm sorry.
I forgot about it.
I was focused on her.
It's very delicious.
It's good, right?
All right.
I'll eat less.
Although you don't look slim based on your face,
you're so skinny.
- Eat more. - Save it.
Qin Qin, eat more.
Qin Qin is so skinny.
Qin Qin, do you want a drink?
Drink a bit.
I'll get the glass.
Your uncle is looking for a drinking buddy.
I'll drink a little then.
Okay.
Where's mine?
This is so embarrassing. I forgot about you again.
Am I invisible to you?
Let's drink together.
Here.
Don't pour too much for her.
Okay.
That's enough.
- Thank you, Uncle. - Okay.
Pour more for me.
Okay.
We're happy today. Let's drink.
Yes.
Here.
- Here. - Let's drink.
I wish you happiness.
Thank you.
Have a baby soon.
It's too early to say that.
I'm just kidding.
Here.
It's good.
Mr. Meng.
If there's nothing else,
I'll get off work first.
Regarding Haoqi's project,
follow up on its progress tomorrow.
Okay.
Go on.
(I forgot to tell you.)
(You broke my little vase when you came to my house last time.)
Aren't we leaving?
I'm used to being the first one to arrive
and the last one to leave.
You don't like being in a crowd.
I didn't break
the vase at your house when I was drunk, did I?
No.
I'll take a taxi home.
I'll drive you home.
There are so many people outside.
You won't be able to get a cab.
That vase isn't worth much.
It's worth less than one-tenth
of this ticket's price.
Whether it's valuable or not
has nothing to do with me.
After all, I didn't break the vase.
Then
Then why did you invite me to this concert?
Someone is not coming anymore.
The seat is empty anyway.
Then who was this ticket
originally for?
Since you treated me to a concert,
I'll treat you to a live house performance.
I'm not interested.
That's right.
It's what young people like us prefer.
Your provocation
doesn't work on me.
I know.
Actually, it has nothing to do with whether you're young or not.
It's just that some people are cold.
They look like they don't have much energy.
That sounds like you.
Even though you're young,
you don't look like you have much energy.
You can see for yourself.
I can.
But that's not necessary.
Hey.
Why aren't you in the dorm?
Didn't we agree
to pick the photos and write the article tonight?
I called you 7 or 8 times and you didn't pick up.
I'll be right back.
Where did you go?
You didn't even tell me in advance.
I'll be back soon.
You're going back to school, right?
Let's go.
(Concert Hall)
Do you love the symphony?
It's all right.
If I see an orchestra I like,
I'll go and listen to it.
I used to think that symphonies were too elegant.
I thought I wouldn't understand it.
I didn't expect that after experiencing it today,
it's really quite nice.
Thank you.
It's nothing.
Do you play an instrument?
What do you think?
I think you do.
You seem like the type
who can play an instrument since you were little.
Why?
Your aura.
So, do you?
Indeed.
I played when I was young.
The piano?
And cello.
Are you the gifted type?
Don't kids learn to play instruments
because their parents like them?
Actually,
I'm quite envious of people who can play instruments.
During recitals in my school,
I think girls who can play instruments
are especially charming on stage.
Although it's hard to learn it when you're little,
it's a talent.
A talent
just to be performed in recitals?
Maybe it's because I couldn't afford to learn it
when I was little.
That's why I'm jealous.
Don't people always long for something
that they can't have?
Even if that thing
isn't necessarily beautiful.
Did I
say something wrong?
No.
We're almost at your school.
I'll stop at the intersection ahead.
Hello?
Are you still up?
How did you know?
I assumed
you weren't asleep,
so I wanted to call you and see.
What's wrong?
Are you not used to it?
A little.
Are you sad?
No.
I didn't expect this
to happen so suddenly either.
Otherwise, I can stay at home with you for a while,
so you'll get used to it.
I'm fine.
It's not the first time I've met Uncle and Aunt.
Besides, they used to like me a lot too.
They still like you a lot now.
What did you do tonight?
Cleaning up.
Organizing training.
Reading.
You're not aware, are you?
Xiao Meng performed excellently.
He and his teacher
both received commendations.
That dog is smart.
He knows he made a contribution,
so he's always wagging his tail and holding his head high.
He's so arrogant.
I'll teach him a lesson these days.
Did you name him Xiao Meng
because of me?
What do you think?
It can only be because of me.
Otherwise, you're dead.
Why are you still up so late?
I'm not used to it either.
You've been recuperating at home for too long.
I left you alone at home.
Why are you laughing?
Right now, my pillow
and bed
are filled with your scent.
Okay, I won't tease you anymore.
I'm going to sleep.
Okay.
I'll be busy with work.
I won't have time to text you.
Don't think too much.
When I'm free,
I'll contact you.
All right.
Good girl.
Get in.
Get in.
Did you go home yesterday?
No.
Mom called and told me.
What did she say?
That because of Song Yan,
you broke ties with the family.
I didn't break ties with them.
I didn't.
I'll visit Mom and Dad every week.
Why are you laughing?
Do you still not know the kind of person Mom is?
Why would you still have such fantasies?
What should I do then?
Every week
Even if you go back every day,
it's useless.
Accomplishing seemingly impossible things
through sustained effort
won't happen to Ms. Fu Wen Ying.
Since you chose Song Yan,
it's the same as breaking ties with the family.
What do you want me to do then?
Do you want me to break up with him
and go back and beg for forgiveness?
To be honest,
no.
Then
Are you on my
I'm not either.
Are you happy?
I'm happy
when I'm with him indeed.
I mean,
after leaving our parents' house
and moving out,
are you happy during this time?
Parental factors aside,
I wasn't unhappy.
But you weren't really happy either.
I'm happy when I'm with him.
Let's see how long you can be happy like this.
You
I'm right, aren't I?
That's why you're so angry.
Stop the car.
I want to get off.
You can wait.
Yan Chen.
Can you talk to Mom for me?
Convince her for me.
How is that possible?
Are you so in love that your head is full of bubbles?
How could she listen to me?
Whether she listens or not, give it a try first.
You've asked the wrong person.
Even if she really listens to me,
I won't help you.
You
Meng Qin.
Do you act this way with our parents?
Meng Yan Chen.
You're happy to see me so discomposed, aren't you?
You've got the one you love.
What's there to be discomposed about?
Close the door.
How I wish you were happy too.
Don't be so repressed.
I want you to be happy.
You will be too.
(Are you going to the seven o'clock live house tonight?)
Do you like it?
To be honest,
I don't really like it.
Is it because you don't like the format?
Indeed.
I don't really like
this format either.
Why do I get the feeling
that you don't have many hobbies?
You don't look like someone
who has many hobbies.
I really like organizing things.
If your house is too messy,
I can show you.
At my house,
there's no room for you to show off.
You've wrapped yourself up so tightly.
(Zhai Miao)
I think you're polite,
well-mannered, and well-spoken.
But you're not willing
to tell anything about yourself at all.
Instead, you find out everything about others.
Look at you just now.
I asked you what you like.
You didn't tell me.
Instead, you got information out of me.
I didn't want to get information from you.
Yes, I was the one who wanted to tell you.
Insects.
Insects?
Butterflies.
How are you interested in them? Do you collect them?
I used to dream
about being an entomologist
who studies butterflies.
Now, I have a room
dedicated to my collection
of butterfly specimens, information, and photos.
Can I take a look?
No.
It's in my house.
Okay.
Why didn't you become an entomologist then?
Are you doing
your dream job?
No.
Actually, I'm studying biology.
I quite like my major.
Even now, I'm looking for a job that's related to biology.
But when I think about practicality,
I feel quite pessimistic.
What do you mean?
Although I don't want to give up on my major,
I'm not good at studying it.
I'm not qualified to be recruited by the school.
But I started my own business now.
I can already earn 10,000 to 20,000 yuan a month.
Is the competition fierce
in your line of work?
Indeed.
And after working in this industry,
you'll become very concerned about your looks.
I always feel that I'm not good-looking.
I'm considering getting plastic surgery.
Do you think I need it?
Look at my double eyelids.
Should I make them deeper?
Or should I make my nose bridge higher?
I don't know.
It's up to you.
You're back.
I'm sorry.
I was too busy at the bar tonight.
It was too noisy.
I didn't hear my phone in my bag.
I really can't believe you.
Can't you answer my calls
and reply to my texts as soon as possible?
I didn't contact you to chat.
I wanted to talk about work.
I'm really sorry.
I didn't mean to not answer your calls.
I really feel like I'm the only one
who cares about this account now.
You just have to take photos every day
and not worry about anything.
That's right, Ye Zi.
You two are working together.
Try to understand each other.
Besides, your job doesn't pay much per hour.
It's fine to quit it.
That's right, Ye Zi.
All right.
It's my fault this time.
I'll resign from all those jobs. I'll quit.
All right?
Double march.
Halt.
Left face.
Right align.
Eyes front.
Are you confident
about this competition?
- Yes! - Yes!
Relax.
Do your best.
I'll wait for your triumphant return.
- Yes! - Yes!
Go.
Right face.
All squads.
Go one by one.
Squad One, double march.
Squad Two, double march.
Squad Three, double march.
(Professional and accurate, Heroic and tenacious)
(Listen to commands)
What's up?
Suo Jun, look.
The Defender Cup?
The first place?
Yes.
Comrade Suo Jun.
Half of this belongs to you.
Then I should thank
the brilliant Chief Song.
Today, when I held it again,
the first thought that came to my mind
was to hold it up high with you
and share with you
the glory of Shilitai.
Two trophies in eight years.
As a station chief,
you're already good enough.
As the saying goes,
there are no weak soldiers under a strong general.
And you've led the new team members so well.
Song Yan.
You're my pride and joy.
You're Shilitai's pride and joy too.
Seeing you like this
makes me really happy.
Do you still remember?
Back then,
we used to celebrate together.
Save it.
At the station,
you have an instructor whom you have a good rapport with.
At home,
you have a beloved girlfriend.
Why are you pretending to be sad with me?
Although the instructor isn't at the station,
he's still focused on his work.
Not bad.
You know so much gossip.
Of course.
Who am I?
Let me tell you.
I know your every move.
Take a screenshot of me and the trophy.
I'll keep it as a souvenir.
Come on.
Smile wider.
Be happier.
Done.
I'll send it to you.
Okay.
The Defender Cup.
You've finally fulfilled the promise we made back then.
We've finally left the Defender Cup in Shilitai as well.
Good job.
Well done.
What does this mean?
What are you doing?
I'm waiting for you.
Let's have a round.
I've been waiting for you for a long time.
Do we continue
or start over?
Let's finish it.
(We'll go when there's a report, we'll move once we hear about it)
(Team Appearance Mirror)
(Safety Officer, Yancheng Firefighter)
(Yancheng Firefighter)
(Song Yan)
Hey, I'm getting off work soon.
Are you still busy?
No.
I was dispatched this afternoon.
I just got back.
I have to go.
Is there a fire?
It's not a fire.
Don't worry. It'll be fine.
(Have you eaten?)
(I ate at the canteen. You've eaten too, right?)
(Yes. We got dispatched earlier. I just got back. Are you home now?)
(Sweet dreams.)
Have you seen the list for the research team?
Dr. Xu is on the waiting list
for the research team.
That's to be expected.
Since she joined Dr. Xu's team,
even though he's a bit strict,
he has included her in all the major surgeries
and cases
and taught her hands-on.
Dr. Xu has improved a lot now.
Is that so?
Why do I think
that Dr. Xu is very demanding with her?
He's also very strict.
Why do I feel like
she might not get the spot this time?
What do you know?
What's wrong with me?
Why talk about this so much?
She has a strong background.
It's already been decided.
During the earthquake rescue,
Dr. Xu did stand out.
So she deserves this.
I think
that's just an excuse.
You can't say that.
Dr. Xu is usually good.
Even if she's usually quiet
and looks cold,
she's serious and responsible.
She doesn't kiss up to people.
She doesn't beat around the bush.
It's comfortable to be with her.
That's right.
Is that so?
Then tell me.
Why is Dr. Xu always giving her such a hard time?
It's because the hospital is pressuring him.
He has no choice.
He can only bring her along.
But as a professor,
he still has a temper.
I feel so bad for you, Dr. Yang.
Don't say that.
Don't say that on my behalf.
I don't want the story to change
as it's being passed around by people.
They'll say I, Yang Si Jia,
am not as skilled as Dr. Xu
and just gossips behind her back.
I'm doing this for your sake.
That's enough. Okay, thank you.
Don't worry about me.
As for me,
I'll become the deputy director.
As to when it will happen,
it has nothing to do with anyone.
Dr. Xu, are you not driving today?
Dr. Xu, why haven't you been driving lately?
Riding a bike
is quite fast, but it's too cold.
I don't know how to ride a bike.
I'll take the subway later.
We'll get going then, Dr. Xu.
- Bye. - Bye.
Hurry up, Dong Dong.
Okay.
Christine had plastic surgery again.
She's so pretty.
She always likes to have plastic surgery done.
I think
it must be tiring for them to be influencers.
And some netizens' comments are so mean.
They always attack their looks.
Good-looking people will become insecure too.
I don't like her anymore.
In the past, I found her so pretty.
The more she gets plastic surgery, the more she looks like a mannequin.
Look at her nose job.
I don't like my idol anymore too.
That guy is so handsome.
Get me his WeChat ID.
The numbers have been so bad lately.
The number of followers is stagnant.
It won't increase no matter what.
But our photos and articles are pretty good.
Yes.
The competition is just too fierce in the beauty industry.
(I'll treat you to a meal to thank you)
(for your invitation last time.)
What's the matter?
I'm going out later.
Can you help me with my look?
Are you dating?
No.
It's just a friend from my hometown.
Hurry up.
I'm going to wash my face first.
Help me pick out some clothes.
I'm going to wash my face.
All right, go ahead.
(Yancheng Grand Theater)
Hello, do you have a reservation?
Yes, under Mr. Meng.
All right, please come with me.
Help me hang up my coat.
Thank you.
Have you been waiting for a long time?
No, I just got here.
I don't know what you like to eat,
so I ordered their specialties.
Check the menu.
Order what else you want.
I'm not picky with food.
Anything is fine.
I didn't order wine.
Is tea okay?
Sure.
Actually, you don't have to treat me to a meal.
I invited you to the live house last time
to thank you for the concert.
But you're here now.
Don't they say that in this world,
there are two things you can't let down?
Good food is one of them.
What's the other one?
Love.
You're making this up, aren't you?
How did you know?
Do you really believe
that there are things in this world
that can't be let down?
Why not?
