[Episode 07] If it’s the fate that we met, does that mean our breakup was predestined as well? I always wanted to film a love story. A simple love story. For example, why did this girl get together with this guy rather than that guy. And she might be married to another guy after a few years? The definition of love is never clear. Relationships between humans may look natural and simple. But are they truly simple? [Tender Light] [Ticket Office] What do you say why it’s so easy for two people who love each other to miss out on each other? So, you have to spend a lot of effort pursuing him if you encounter someone you like. Bingbing, I have a question. Do you think men like women to be mature or pure? They like mature women when they’re young. But they definitely like pure women when they’re old. [6 Months Ago] [The 3rd Month After Zhou Luo back to Qingshui Town (June 1999)] Goodbye. Goodbye. Zhou Luo likes mature women. How do you know? I could tell that you were trying to figure him out. But I think Zhou Luo is no ordinary person. What do you mean? Think about it. If it were someone else, when a pretty girl was nice to him, he would’ve fallen for her easily. Zhou Luo is different. He’s always serious. It’s not easy to understand what he’s thinking. By the way, has he ever done that to you? What do you mean? Just something intimate. I don’t know. It’s… Maybe he’s got a little bit of a crush on me. That’s more than enough. Think about it. Zhou Luo is all about studying. I’m sure he has no idea how to take the next step. At this moment, you need to give him a push. How? Are you silly? Listen. First, it’s about the way you look at him. You need to exude tenderness and love through your eyes Exuding tenderness and love through eyes? Second, you need to be nice to him when he’s at his most vulnerable. How do you know about all these? My cousin told me about it. He said he would hold his wedding banquet after next year’s exam. The most infuriating one is Yang Xiaochuan. He’s totally different from us now. He’s so cocky now. Bingbing and I aren’t in a relationship yet. It’s so infuriating. Look. I’m so angry that there are blisters on my lips. Zhou Luo! Zhou Luo! Our teacher told me to make a poster for the return of Macao, China. Your handwriting is nice. Can you join me? Sure. If so, let’s go. Right now? [Return of Macao, China] Zhou Luo, I think you’re different from the others in town. How am I different? I could tell from the way you treat Nan Ya. You’re not bound by conventional thinking. You respect girls a lot. You never talk about people behind their backs. And you can even stand up for people at crucial moments. I don’t feel like talking about that. Let’s finish this quickly and head back. Qingli. Nan Ya. Are you here to buy new clothes? One of my dresses doesn’t fit me. Can you alter it for me? Let me take your measurements. Give me your dress. Nan Ya, I’m sure plenty of people were chasing you in the past. Maybe that was true when I was a student. If so, I’m sure the person you fancied must have fancied you too. Not necessarily. Love is the subtlest thing in this world. There are many things that are unobtainable, you know? All done. The person I fancy is so hard to figure out. Sometimes, I think he’s close to me. Sometimes, I think he’s so far away. It’s like he’s running hot and cold. What would you do if you were in my shoes? I would do my best. But I also know I might suffer from not getting what I want. Set lofty ambitions! Be down-to-earth! Study hard! Study diligently! Have a stable mindset! Never give up! See you guys in Tsinghua and Peking University! It happened in ancient times. It talked about a beautiful woman who was very capable. She could sew at the age of 13 and make clothes at the age of 14. She got married to a… I don’t really understand the questions you explained to me last time. Give me a tuition when we reach home later. Sure. I want to buy a couple of drinks. Do you want some? I’m fine with anything. Thank you. Nan Ya. Qingli, is school over? Goodbye. Here’s your change. Take care. Zhou Luo. Nan Ya just passed by. Is that so? Thanks. Let’s go. Wait for me! Zhou Luo. Wait for me! Give it to me! No! Give it to me! No, I won’t! Mom made this for me! My mother said your mother was a bad woman! That’s not true! That’s nonsense! Your mother is a bad woman! Why are you kids acting like this? How could you guys be so rude at such a young age? If you say that again, I’ll grab some bugs and put them one by one in your shirts. Wanwan, everything’s fine now. Tell me if they bully you again. I’ll teach them a lesson. Mom said we won’t be bullied again when we go to the new place. New place? Where is it? It’s the place where Mom is going to take me. You have to keep this a secret. I’m only telling you about this. Mom said this was a secret. I shouldn’t tell anyone about it. What about your dad, then? I have to keep this from my dad. Nan Ya! [ZIJIN] Zhou Luo, what are you up to again? Why didn’t you open the door for me? I’ve told you not to look for me again. Are you leaving? Can you please stop behaving like this? Wanwan already told me about it. Where else can I go? Do you intend to leave without bidding farewell? Do you intend to broadcast it with a loudspeaker? So, I am nothing to you. You’re just a kid. I’m not! If you are not, then you’ll make allowance for my hardship. Then you’ll know I have no other choice. You will know why I have to escape with my sickly daughter under such circumstances? Is going to court and getting a divorce that difficult? I can’t afford to lose Wanwan. Running away is my best choice. Do you intend to hide your name, not get a divorce, and lead a sneaky life? Even so, it’s much better than my current life. Where are you going? How can I find you? Stop asking. I won’t tell you anything. Do you know about my feelings for you? Zhou Luo, you have a great future ahead of you. You’ll lead a carefree and bright life. You don’t mean that. You don’t mean that at all. Tell me your address. Stop asking. I won’t tell you anything. Why? Can you wait for me? I’ll be more mature. I’ll get into university soon. I can change my occupation. I can find gainful employment. I… Just you trust me, okay? I trust you. But I hope that you’ll choose an occupation that you like. Can I see you off, then? No. My life is already terrible enough. I don’t wish to drag other people down. Don’t go. Children forget things easily. Falling for someone is just like catching a severe cold. Go back, take a bath, and go to sleep. You’ll be fine after one week. Are you not going to give me any hope at all? Hope is the most terrifying thing. Nan Ya, do you believe in love? I know it sounds stupid. A person who has never truly loved someone is trying to discuss with a woman whom he has no chance to be with about love. But I know that this feeling inside me cannot be suppressed or cast aside. It’s just like a piece of burning coal. It hurts. It hurts a lot if I’m not careful enough. I might be happy at this moment but down at the next moment. That should be love. I wish to get close to you, but I cannot. I wish to push you aside, but I can’t bear to do so. You said you were older than me. Tell me what it is, then. I know I shouldn’t say things like these. But you won’t get to hear them if I don’t say them out right now. My days in the hospital were the happiest moments of my life. Wanwan, let’s go. Zhou Luo. Let’s go. Let’s go. You said you were going to leave, and I can do nothing about it. Even the words that I say to try to make you stay seem powerless. They even seem childish and selfish. I know. Escaping from this place is the only way for you to get rid of your life here. I hate myself for being too young. I can’t take on the responsibility of protecting you and Wanwan. I can’t provide you with anything. I have nothing. I’m even afraid that my love for you might be a burden to you. This feeling almost kills me. It extinguishes the burning piece of coal in my heart. But it leaves a hole behind. Zhou Luo! This hole hurts much more than the burning piece of coal in my heart. The most helpless thing about love is that there’s no way to prove it. Even if I show you my heart, what you will see is just a beating organ. Science might have proven the existence of hormones, but love is formless. It’s just like a spirit. Only those who were possessed by it could feel its existence. Now, I wish to abandon everything and get on that train, no matter where it’s heading. But I know that it’ll only annoy you. It’ll overwhelm you. I might even become a part of your obstacles too. That’s why be patient is the only thing I can do now. I’ll do my best to prepare for everything. Wait here for me. Excuse me. I’m here to retrieve my baggage. Even if there’s no hope, I’ve still made up my mind. Nan Ya, I will wait for you. I will always wait for you. No matter where you are, there will always be someone who trembles upon hearing your name. Until you’re willing to turn around and look at me. Until the day we meet again. What does the city we’re going to look like? That is a very beautiful city. There are plenty of flowers there. It’s very warm too. Are you happy? Yeah. Nan Ya. Don’t move. Don’t move! Xu Jian! What are you doing? They’re over here! Get them! What are you doing? Mom! What are you guys doing? Wanwan! Let go of me! Wanwan! How dare you bully me? You’re too bold! How dare you try to escape? I’ll beat you to death! Let go of me! Mom! Xu Jian! You scum! How dare you seduce your brother’s wife? Let go of me! What are you guys doing? Let go of me! What are you looking at? Go away! Leave! Go! Xu Jian! You scum! Get out of the van! You scum! Get out of the van! Get her down! What are you guys doing? Get out of the van! Go inside! Xu Jian, you scum! How did I treat you usually? How could you face our ancestors? You shameless scum! What’s going on over there? Why are they all going there? Let’s go and check it out too. Okay. How did I treat you usually? Look at how you’re treating me! Why did I trust you in the first place? How could you guys face our ancestors? Are you okay? I’m fine. Don’t talk. The act will be over soon. Get down. Explain yourself! How could I have not known about your affair with Xu Jian? Wanwan! Wanwan! Wanwan! Go home! Mom! Luo! What’s going on? Mom, take Wanwan back. Don’t let her see this. Come back quickly! Zhou Luo! What are you doing? Have you lost your mind? Let go of me! Did you forget what happened? I’m going to kill him! You’ll only ruin your reputation if you go there now! I don’t care! Is it worth it ruining your reputation for a woman? Can’t you tell that they’re acting? That’s not the case at all! Zhou Luo! Calm down. Qingli and Bingbing have already called the police. The police will be here soon. If you go there now, you’ll end up like Xu Jian. You’ll be implicated too! Can’t you tell that no man is trying to get implicated here? Make way! Zhou Luo! Zhou Luo, calm down! Make way! You scum! How could you do this to me? Zhou Luo! Zhou Luo! Do you want to swim? The water is very cold. Does it hurt? It doesn’t hurt now. I hate them. Is there a point in hating them? No. But I feel like killing them today. Me too. But I won’t do it. I still have Wanwan. What exactly do you want from me? I don’t want anything from you. The world is never that simple. Don’t you trust me? I’m telling you to trust no one, including me.
