Episode 17
I am leaving. I can't.
It's too noisy. I can't take it.
- I feel dizzy. - Hold on.
I can't.
If you leave, people will laugh at you for being old.
It's so noisy.
Have a seat.
Your eyes have already told me
how much you dislike me.
The black hole
is hidden in the eyes of hypocrisy.
I'll leave the life with you soon
and find my own sky.
Now for every second, I live for myself.
Don't give me those excuses.
Don't interrupt my tempo.
We have different standards.
Proud, vain, and hypocritical
it's not me.
I clutch my hands so tightly.
Without you, my life will be easier.
I don't need a broken alarm.
So stop bothering, caring, and nagging me.
Let me go.
You Qing: Did I offend you?
Why didn't you pick up my call or answer my text?
Da Ren: You are overthinking. I am just busy.
You Qing: What a horrible excuse. Why didn't you just not reply?
I hate someone who won't make things clear.
Da Ren: It is not a horrible excuse. I am busy
preparing for my transfer to Singapore.
Why do you have so many phone calls?
Important things about work.
Thank you.
Why did you keep not answering my calls?
Why did you decide to transfer to Singapore?
Because of you.
Me?
Because I have to try hard...
Didn't you say...
that I should not give up?
Are you always obedient?
I just think...
that I shouldn't be stuck where I am now.
How are you stuck?
Don't you think I am?
I work at the place that connects us to the rest of the world.
But actually, I am the one who is the farthest from it.
I want to go to Tibet
Turkey
and so many other places.
But I can only see different travelers depart.
So...
I want to move to another city.
Although I am stuck
I might still have the feeling of traveling.
Why aren't you talking?
No.
I just feel...
it might be good.
Really?
Yeah...
We both need to change.
Or... we will become a cliche soon.
I already knew that they wouldn't get a prize.
Why kind of lyrics are those?
What are those eyesore, shameful kind of things?
Oh my god.
I really can't take it. I was almost about to be crazy.
Will people think what Tao Tao's song is actually about me?
Mom.
Don't worry.
Everyone knows that it is not about you.
Really?
Also
don't you think the lyrics Tao Tao wrote are pretty interesting?
About the thing that the boyfriend's mother is
checking her son's girlfriend.
The more she checks, the more she sees her as the eyesore.
Actually there are few people writing about it in lyrics.
So Tao Tao...
So, it's about the boyfriend's mother...
Da Ren.
Is Tao Tao dating someone?
I don't know. She didn't tell me.
Why don't even you know?
Well...
I remind her all the time
that she has to be careful about how she dress
and this and that
and she never listens to me, does she?
No wonder her boyfriend's mom doesn't like her. Right?
Nowadays, who won't judge people by their appearance?
It's really...
Well...
But as a senior, she also shouldn't be like this. Right?
She shouldn't draw the conclusion from a part.
Why... why is Tao Tao bad?
And also
these ridiculous... judges.
Tell me, are those screaming songs audible?
And these songs, these people can win the first prize.
You know, I listened to them thoroughly
and anyway, only Tao Tao's band's song was audible
and one that I can stand. Right?
Since those songs can win the first prize
what's wrong with Tao Tao's song? That bad?
Why can't she win the top three?
What do they mean by that?
It is really ridiculous.
Calm down...
Why do I feel so down?
Because today's sales quota is terribly horrible.
Why do I feel so sad?
Why do I feel... so depressed?
Why...
do I want to cry so bad?
It is surely not because of Li Da Ren.
Do you really have ears?
Do you actually know how to appreciate?
Tao Tao.
Why did you drink that much?
Come, get up.
Leave me alone.
Don't bother me.
Did I really sing so terribly?
It's already over.
Let me help you inside.
No. Leave me alone.
Come on. Watch out.
They all don't know how to appreciate my music.
Watch out.
Did she drink?
How old are you?
And you imitating grown-ups drinking?
According to the law, people over 18 are allowed to drink.
- You... - Mom.
She is in a bad mood.
Take a hot towel to put on her face.
I'll go make some tea.
Okay.
Be careful. Don't let her fall.
Why do I still feel so down?
Because there is nothing for me to get high.
Why do I still feel so sad?
Because yesterday
today, and tomorrow
are all the same day.
Why do I still want to cry?
Because my life
never changes.
If you don't want to live the same life, you need to change.
What's up?
Nothing.
Change should start from now.
Do you know Da Ren
will be transferred to Singapore at the end of this month?
Can I say thank god happily?
Change.
If I don't want to live the same life
then I should change.
Are you hungry?
I'm good. If you are hungry
there is pizza in the fridge.
Can we have a walk? I am so tired.
Give me one more hour.
Do you want some tea?
No, thank you.
I'll make some pancakes for you. Okay?
What happened to you today?
Nothing. I am just thinking
of making some changes in my life.
Through pancakes?
If you want some, just make them.
But please, give me one full hour.
Change.
That's right. I need to change.
That's it, that's it. There.
Harder, harder...
Yes, yes, yes...
That's it. Nice. So good.
So good. Too good.
I am back.
What happened to you?
Nothing happened.
I just changed my hairstyle.
So that's why I'm asking what happened to you?
Nothing happened.
I just changed my hairstyle to change my mood.
Why did you change your hair?
You looked good with long hair.
I think it is better looking now.
Much cleaner.
Like a tough woman.
Tough women always have problems in relationships.
There are only stupid women who would love to be tough.
You, as the woman who can never be tough
are actually no smarter.
You don't understand.
Cheng You Qing, I warn you.
Never be a tough woman.
I am not trying to be a tough woman.
I just wanted to make a change.
So hot. So itchy.
She knows magic.
No. According to what she was doing
she must have had fight with Ding Li Wei.
Hello?
Why did you have your hair cut?
There is no reason why.
Just for fun.
I don't think it's fun.
You should have discussed it with me before.
But...
this is my hair.
But you are my girlfriend.
Even so
I am still who I am, not your supplement.
It is not the problem about being a supplement
but being respectful to each other.
For example, if we are married
for the interior design, the type of sofa
the color scheme, the lights
and the household appliances
shouldn't we have a discussion on those?
Shouldn't we purchase
after we come to the conclusion?
Do you get it?
I don't.
Because I am not a sofa
color scheme, and lights.
I am Cheng You Qing.
It really is a 'change.'
Hey, older sister You Qing, you got your hair cut.
I think after you cut your hair
you look much cleaner, and more refreshing.
True. I think so, too.
Can you reveal where did you have your hair cut?
I can't.
- Introduce us there next time. - So far, it's still a secret.
I will tell you, after the trend is dated.
You are so stingy.
You are always changing.
District Manager of the central district.
Why do you have time to come back to Taipei?
To visit you.
Okay, you guys talk.
- Okay. - We are going back to work.
- Bye. - Later.
The is the greatest compliment I have ever had.
It's not a compliment but the truth.
Okay.
Enough.
It will be disgusting if there is more.
Why do you have time to come back?
I got a phone call early this morning.
The general manager will have an emergency meeting.
Really?
I just had a discussion with her a couple days ago
about our business expansion to southeast Asia.
She was excitingly offering me a lot of advice.
But recently, she told me that she wants to quit.
Didn't the manager tell you why?
She just said she wants to make some changes in her life.
As for how to do it
she is not clear about it yet.
Maybe she will run a hostel in Nantou.
You guys help me think about
what to do.
Or who can help me persuade her not to quit?
All right.
Then who
will volunteer to take the position of manager?
Or, who is willing to expand our business with me?
If I don't want to live the same life
I have to change.
I am so jealous of you.
You will start your new life soon.
Why does it sound like
an irresponsible and ironic comment?
I am serious.
Then why didn't you compete for
being transferred to Singapore at first?
Come on.
I have my mom, my wife, my daughter here.
How can I go?
Older brother Da Ren.
Please do seize the day
without worry, without attachment.
Just focus on fighting for your life.
Maggie.
Long time no see.
You are well-informed.
Having a farewell party for me?
Sure.
Tomorrow?
I can't do tomorrow.
I saved it for my high school classmates.
Okay. Bye bye.
Wow. It's nice. Vice Class Leader.
You must work so hard.
- Don't just stand there talking. Come help. - No problem, after we finish eating.
It smells so good.
Here. Here's the BBQ.
Wow. It smells good.
Li Da Ren, where is the food?
Dua Zang took it.
If you come here next month
there will be a sauna back there.
Sauna?
Because my husband recently discovered
there is a hot spring source around here.
Hot spring?
Lu Xin Di.
I can't even imagine
that you have such a wonderful marriage.
I fought for it with a lot of efforts.
Oh, Li Da Ren.
It is not even done yet.
Nonsense. Did I say it's done?
You grill by yourself if you want to eat.
All right.
Okay. Thank you.
It smells so good. Feed me.
- It fell. - You have to share yours with him.
- What fell? - Cookie.
Here. This.
Take this to the class leader.
Yours also fell, so you can't eat it. Got it?
I know you are so biased.
- Hurry. - Help me make it more done.
Got it.
Here.
Hello.
Have fun.
Do you want to eat?
No, you can't.
This is what the vice class leader prepared for the class leader.
- Class Leader. - Come over here.
Let me show you.
This is the kitchen of the house.
The design was based on the shape of a triangle
with the windows on the both sides
so that when cooking
you can still see the whole view.
Auntie, I want to poo.
You want to... poo?
Hey. Xin Di. Mei Mei.
Your son and daughter are going to poo.
Auntie, I want to poo.
You too?
Okay. Come. I'll bring you to the toilet to poo.
Come. Form a line.
- Follow the auntie. - Come. Come.
Okay. Put your hands on his shoulder.
Nice, nice, nice.
- Idol. - Here they are.
Okay. Guys.
Let's welcome Filial Class of Grade Three.
White-faced cat. Meow.
Screw you.
Meow. Meow. Meow....
Screw you.
I am sorry.
Finally, it's my turn to talk.
Who is it?
Who the hell is it?
Who stole my youth?
Your mom.
No.
Give it back to me.
I ask you to give my past back to me.
Hey, are you okay?
- Hey, hey. - Shrewmouse.
- He fell asleep. - He fell asleep.
- Hurry. - Get up. Don't pretend.
Hey, he fell asleep. Come help.
It is too much.
- Be careful. - Okay. One, two, three.
You freak me out.
I really can't stand you boys.
How can he get drunk alone?
Forget about him.
Just let him pass out there.
Well...
Vice Class Leader.
Did you write a song before
called 'I Might...'
- Hey, hey... - Sing it.
What song did I write?
Actually, Mei Nan had a song. Did you remember?
- Did he? - He did.
Yes.
Oh, yes. It's 'Mei Nan, Mei Nan, I Love You.'
Oh, yes.
Mei Nan, Mei Nan, I love you.
You are charming like the orchid.
You are blossoming annually like the plum.
At the sight of Mei Nan, I think of you.
You started with the pitch too high.
Why do you have such high pitch for nothing?
I don't know. It's inborn.
Did you remember there is also a song for Dua Zang?
- Yes. - Bullshit. Is there?
Dua Zang, Dua Zang.
Why are you so heavy?
Mom says being heavy means beauty.
Can you?
Don't puke. Almost there.
Done?
So heavy.
Class Leader, Vice Class Leader, I love you.
Shush.
Can you be quiet?
Go back to sleep.
Then you have to tell me
you love me, too.
You too.
Really?
Really, really...
Then do you love each other?
Vice Class Leader, tell me.
Do you love Class Leader?
I do.
Really?
The Class Leader
you have to love Vice Class Leader, too.
Okay, okay... I do, I do...
Please go back inside.
Yeah.
This world is full of love
full of peace.
Let's draw the perfect conclusion for tonight with love.
Good night.
I think he is done, isn't he?
I don't want to read the news tomorrow morning
about 'the drunk anchor disturbs the neighbors.'
I love you.
Get inside, hurry.
You are crazy.
Let's go. Quick.
See.
What do they mean by having the farewell party for me?
It turns out that they are fooling me.
Hey, I wasn't relaxed for the whole day, either.
But those mothers, they are just too much.
Why did each of them look like the gloomy woman
being released from jail after ten years.
God, they were wild and cared nothing.
For those somber men who are dominated by their girlfriend
they are actually no better.
It seems like we are the better ones.
With no worry and no attachment.
Wait a second.
You have no worry and no attachment?
I should be the legit one with no worry and no attachment.
You are right.
Why?
Why didn't Ding Li Wei check up on you all day?
He called a couple times.
But I didn't pick up.
Why?
There should also be a break for love.
Cheng You Qing looks really good this way.
The way that you'll never be sick of.
What a shame.
Why would you be willing to cut your hair that you kept so long?
Once you give, you will gain.
What do you want to gain?
I want...
to change.
Change what?
Isn't it said that personalities decide your destiny?
If this kind of Cheng You Qing will bump into that kind of dat, dat, dat...
So what if I am not that Cheng You Qing
what will I bump into?
But what changes
is only the appearance anyway.
This is actually a wig.
- Really? - Don't touch it.
It will be crooked...
You can't notice. Right?
But since you said it looks good
then I'll have exactly the same haircut tomorrow.
Actually...
I...
I cannot love you.
Actually, you don't have to force yourself to change.
Because...
Can you please not spin around? I feel dizzy.
Because... 'old dogs can't play new tricks.'
So you don't have to change.
I should 'look not for musk in a dog's kennel' like you.
Are you hungry?
- Let's have a drink? - More?
I was taking care of the kids. Could I drink?
That's true.
Plus, I won't be drunk even after thousands of glasses.
But you pass out with only one.
Bullshit.
When did I pass out with just one?
What do you want to drink?
Sour plum wine...
Excuse me, how much is it?
A thousand...
- A thousand... - Uh...
It seems like...
I forgot to bring money.
Forgot the money?
Yes, well...
Excuse me, I'll pay for her.
How much is it?
1,280.
A thousand two hundred... Cheng You Qing what the hell did you eat?
None of your business.
Pay the check for me first.
A thousand two hundred...
Do you have it?
It's all right. Just 1,200. Okay?
Wait, wait...
- It's all right. Just 1,200. - Here...
- Eighty dollars. - How about for your own check?
He is on credit but not me.
Sir, here is the exact 1,280.
As for my check, I'll pay tomorrow.
No need. You just come here often. Okay?
You both have to come here often. Okay?
It's all right. That's it.
I have to change
the habit of always forgetting to bring my purse.
I have to change
the habit of always having beer.
I have to change
the habit of having the night snack.
There are too many changes that I have to make.
Why does it sound like all your changes are because of me?
Don't be conceited.
I change for myself.
After being over the age 30
having a night snack will only make you gain weight.
In the future, you can ask him to accompany you.
I don't want to.
What if we don't have a congenial chat? It will make me have indigestion all day.
It's worse.
Did you have a fight?
We just came to no compromise.
Why there is no compromise?
Isn't it funny?
He and I really have a huge gap in our values.
I'm often pissed after talking with him a couple of sentences.
But he always says it's my problem.
He says it is hard to communicate with me.
Is it really hard to communicate with me?
Even the fraudulent organizations hung me up recently.
Actually
men are self-abased like the fraudulent organizations.
When they bump into the eloquent women
with clear minds
they start to panic.
Do women have to be sillier
so as to be more adorable?
So when he says
why didn't you discuss with me first
before you had your hair cut
I then have to say
'I am sorry. It's my fault.'
Wait a minute.
Don't tell me you even want to change this.
Is it bad for a girl to be more adorable?
I am not sure if it is good or not.
But what I am sure about is
to pretend to be someone unlike yourself
Cheng You Qing will suffer a lot.
This kind of Li Da Ren
is pretty charming.
Pity.
What a pity.
Sometimes I think
the thing I need to change
should be the habit of
chatting with Li Da Ren.
Why don't you feel sad at all?
About what?
You...
Cold-blooded.
Just choose the one you want to talk to.
And then click this
'video chat.'
And that's it.
And then?
And then you talk.
Where to?
Just talk like normal.
Oh yeah?
Or let's try once, and you'll know.
I will go back there and log in.
Call me.
It is not connected.
Don't rush.
Hold on.
You can try now.
There you go.
I see and hear you.
Okay, now you know how to do it. I'm going to hang up.
Wait a second.
I... I still have things to say.
What? What are you going to say?
Actually I...
I think...
the song you sang is pretty good.
I... I am going to hang up.
Tao Tao: It is better than winning first place.
You can also type there?
If you are too shy to say it, you can just type.
Mom.
You are still up.
I am playing the 'toy' You Qing gave me.
You Qing gave it to you?
She told me
with this
after you move to Singapore
I can talk to you here.
Since I tried so hard not to love you
why doesn't it always work at some moment?
Since you are just here
try this with me with your laptop.
Hurry. Hurry.
Hurry.
Thank you for the viewpad you gave to my mom.
Does Auntie Li like it?
Very much.
You are really good at fawning over his mother.
What?
Okay, okay.
Actually the reason for me to leave Taipei--
Are you free tomorrow night?
My mom says she wants to hold a farewell party for you.
Since Auntie Cheng summons, of course I will be free.
Okay.
Okay, then that's good.
Oh, then I am going to ask Cheng Guan Qing to give me a ride for grocery shopping.
By the way
invite Ding Li Wei as well.
Let me help you.
Okay, okay...
Since you want me to call him, then I will.
Nothing to lose anyway.
Why didn't you pick up my calls all day?
Because I didn't want to have a fight with you
during my reunion.
Okay.
Don't be upset.
Actually...
you look good with short hair, too.
I just feel bad about you cutting your long hair.
Why did you get home so late?
Still reluctant to be apart from Li Da Ren?
I am just joking.
By the way
can you save tomorrow night for me?
Why?
My boss wants to treat us a dinner.
Why?
Because your boyfriend is his favorite employee.
Oh, really.
Oh, no. Can we schedule it some other time?
Why?
Well...
My mom wants to hold a farewell party for Li Da Ren tomorrow night.
Do you think it is inappropriate
to reschedule the dinner
since it's on my boss's treat?
Besides, who the hell does Li Da Ren think he is?
Does he deserve to have this and that
endless farewell parties?
It's up to you whether you are coming or not.
Change.
Cheng You Qing you need to change.
If tomorrow night I am not there
you won't unfriend me, will you?
Don't change the direction you are heading
because of me.
Thank you.
Li Da Ren.
Thank you for being my best friend.
Thank you
for coming into my life.
You look especially pretty today.
It's rare that we have a consensus.
I am really sorry for yesterday.
But...
I am really happy that you came today.
I am here is because I am your girlfriend.
But I won't have a discussion with you
about whether I should cut my hair or not.
I understand.
Because you are Cheng You Qing.
What about it?
So...
you are always beautiful no matter what.
She is here.
- Hi. - Hi.
New girlfriend?
No, she is not.
You met last time at the party.
Cheng You Qing. Remember?
Sure.
She had her hair cut.
I thought you changed your girlfriend.
Have a seat.
Here.
Cheng Guan Qing, here.
Here comes the food.
Wang Kun Shan, are you a rat?
Why did you take a bite secretly?
How can you see me?
Don't you know that I can see through you?
Come back here, hurry.
Here, Da Ren.
Da Ren, serve yourself first.
Da Ren, even so
I still wish you all the best in Singapore.
Find a girl with boobs and butt
and then do whatever you want.
Cheers.
Thank you, Uncle Cheng.
So...
what do you think?
I think it's about the time to take action.
After all, they have cooperated with Miles for a while.
I know.
Don't worry.
I never have to worry about you.
Cheers.
Thank you
for taking care of Will.
You need to help him with the food.
- Okay. - Here. Da Ren.
Let's toast.
What toast?
Since you are going to drive later, don't drink that much.
Mom, it's okay. Let him drink.
I'll drive later.
Weird.
I feel like we are missing one person.
Cheng You Qing.
True. It's You Qing.
Where did You Qing go?
Forget about it.
The woman in love is never a friend.
Right, Da Ren?
There is no need for you to be nice to her.
Can you not play mischief between them?
Cheng You Qing really has important things to do.
Today, it's us who hold the farewell party for him.
Just ask You Qing to do it some other time for him. Is it okay?
True, true. Tonight is your treat.
I'll ask You Qing to treat me some other time.
So, when will you guys settle down?
I am waiting for her.
I thought that day with your touching proposal
although Miss Cheng seemed not to be there
you must also be deeply touched.
It is truly touching.
But...
marriage is not about being touched.
But about what?
Will's charm is undeniable.
Brilliant and aggressive.
With his ability, he surely can offer a happy marriage life.
It's about me.
I think I still have a lot of defects.
And it takes time to make changes, to adjust.
Although I am a foreigner
but for the concept of marriage
I am pretty oriental.
I agree with a saying of your ancestors a lot.
Behind a successful man
there should be a woman who is willing to dedicate, to sacrifice.
Miss Cheng, if you want to change, that's great.
Because Will just started developing his career.
He needs a good wife who can take care of his life
and a family he doesn't have to worry about.
So...
don't think that much.
Just quit your job and marry him.
Actually it is not necessary to quit your job now.
After we have a baby
I think You Qing will be a conscientious mother.
I just don't know
if we have the same standard for
a 'good wife' and a 'good mother.'
So...
I think this is probably why
we need more time.
Excuse me, here is your meal.
If my braised food business could be better
then I can buy a house.
- East. - Pong.
Dad, it costs money to buy a house.
It is not necessary to be too big.
Just 40 pyeong with three bedrooms and two living rooms.
If I have one more daughter
it will be awesome.
It is really awesome.
Actually, I am pretty satisfied with my life.
But...
Let me tell you a secret.
Mei Qing is not satisfied these days.
Look at the watermelon. Why are you looking at your fingers?
Don't misunderstand it.
We are okay for that thing.
It's just Mei Qing keeps nagging these days
that she doesn't want to be a housewife.
She says she wants to be like You Qing
dressing well to work.
I don't let her.
And then she starts to protest, and strike.
You know, these days
it's me who sends Yo Yo to school and picks her up after school.
I am really tired to death.
Yo Yo and I have had pork chop bento box
for a week.
Now when I hear the two words, bento box
I just want to puke.
Therefore...
I apologize to you on behalf of the Cheng family.
Salute.
I deserve it.
Because I love her.
Da Ren, let me tell you this.
For those who say
bullshit like 'wives are for us to take care of'
they really make men's lives horrible.
All the wives' zodiac signs are snake.
I really need to educate your wife.
Otherwise, they will beat you at your own game.
You know?
Right.
It is always said
marry the wife with virtue.
It is really bullshit.
I don't think so.
You should marry someone stupid.
Marry someone who knows nothing.
Why didn't you tell me that you love me?
How can you love me?
I hate the people like you.
You actually have something going on
and you just call each other good friends
so that you can do whatever you like?
