Where are you taking me?
If I go to school, I'll run into those bullies.
Do you know how afraid I was?
Ah Bi is afraid and therefore he is avoiding. It is normal.
You mean you've never once thought of avoiding something before?
No.
Then why are you pretending to be Yang Mocheng here?
Yang Mocheng is Xiang Shu Lei's method of avoiding.t
Hi, Mr Xiang.
Hi, Mr Yang Mocheng?
I've heard from Editor Liang that I look a lot like the son you've lost.
Knowing this, I really feel sorry.
Can you give me a hug?
Stop saying that you're Yang Mocheng.
This is your favourite cheesecake.
Eat more.
Moreover, we were surprised to discover,
While facing the dark, raging waters, there existed a life brighter than sun,
whiter than the snow, more valiant than the storm.
The North Star can attest to this.
No matter which direction you observe it from, with majesty, joy, and strength,
with wings that soar above the seagulls, it flies over the snow-capped mountains.

Boss, seems like Ah Bi's still not in a good mood.
So I'm thinking of making his favorite dumplings with granny to get him in a better mood.
Great, turns out I also love dumplings. Especially shrimp dumplings.
Shrimp dumplings? Alright, then it's settled.
You better keep your promise.
Old Liu's restaurant.
Ke Xin, how'd you know my favorite was shrimp dumplings?
I will finish everything right away after I finish my homework.
No! This is for Uncle Mocheng.
He said his favorite is shrimp dumplings.
And we have to leave some for Ah Bi.
Let me tell you. The shrimp dumplings that we're wrapping never sell out.
And you're afraid Xiao Ba will eat it all?
Hm?
It's time for pizza!
Yay! Pizza!
Let's eat pizza.
Uncle Mocheng, is she your girlfriend? She looks so pretty.
Don't spout nonsense. She is Ah Bi's English teacher, Miss Chen.
She purposely brought pizza and came to see Ah Bi.
Teacher, can we have the pizza together? I love to eat pizzas very much!
-Please?-Of course, let's have it together.
Here.
Are you guys eating dumplings for dinner?
Don't worry about it Teacher.
We can freeze the dumplings and heat it up if we want to eat it.
But as for pizza, we must eat it first.
So we will eat the pizza first, alright?
Yay! We're eating pizza!
Xiao Ba come, after you finish homework, let's eat dumplings okay?
I don't want to. I want to eat pizza and then do homework.
Xiao Ba, be good. Didn't we decide to finish up our homework
and then eat dumplings? You should keep your words.
Unlike some adults who don't keep their words right?
I don't care. I want to eat pizza and then do homework.
Ke Xing, I really forgot that I promised you that we'll eat dumplings today.
How about we eat it tomorrow? Let's eat pizza first.
Xiao Ba! Go do your homework first and then eat dumplings!
I want to eat pizza and then do it.
Be good.
I want to eat first and then I'll do homework.
- Didn't you promise me? -I want to eat first!
How can you be so disobedient, Xiaoba?!
Ke Xing, enough!
This isn't polite. Eating pizza shouldn't take long anyways.
You guys eat!
Xiaoba, don't cry. Come over here.
Come quickly.
Let me tell you. This is how Ke Xing shows her jealousy.
It has nothing to do with you.
Eat first, and then we'll go home, okay?
Alright, alright. Let's eat pizza.
Xiang Shu Lei, you don't keep your promises.
You forgot all about the dumplings I made after seeing the pizza.
You changed your mind quicker than you go through books.
It's fine that you brought pizza happily with Chen Yu Fan,
but you even scolded me in front of her.
Do you not care about my feelings?
What am I doing?
What am I writing?
It's like I'm jealous.
Weird, it's so late already, how come Ah Bi isn't home for dinner yet?
Where'd he go?
I think I know where.
Life is a game.
One where everyone must follow the rules to play.
If you happen to be on the side with the hot shots, then of course it's a game.
But if you're on the other side where there aren't any hot shots,
then what's a game about it?
Hey, Mo Cheng.
Brother Mocheng. What are you all doing here?
Thank you.
Hey, have you finished The Catcher in the Rye?
No way,
don't tell me that I need to write up a book report.
Who told you to turn in a book report?
You can't just share your thoughts after reading?
Share? Share what?
-It's hard. - Is it that hard?
For example, after you read it,
were there any quote that left a deep impression? Or other such thoughts?
Oh, there's one. In the book, didn't he say,
"Life is a game."
I think it makes so much sense.
If you're born into the team that's skilled,
then of course you enjoy the game.
But if you're just so unlucky to be stuck on the team without any skill,
then what game are you even playing.
Hey, Holden was actually on the really skilled team.
He went to a rich school. It's just he didn't seize the opportunity,
and got expelled right away.
And felt his life was a failure.
Don't you think he was blind?
No, maybe he thinks he's stupid
and useless,
but he's actually a very kind-hearted person.
He just wanted to be himself, and not be like the hypocritical adults around him.
I don't feel like he's stupid or a failure.
If you imagine Holden's world,
then have you considered why those bullies are picking on you?
Are they like Holden, and have special reasons?
I've never thought about it.
What if they're like Holden,
and really hate this world,
so they pick on me to vent their anger.
You have to search for the answer on your own.
I just think that your problem can only be solved by finding the real cause.
Hey! Let's have a match.
I'm not afraid of you. I'm on!
Come then.
I'll let you go first. Here.

Α yellow ribbon
A distance of a few silent winter days
The silence of the treetops
♫ Afraid that your eyes become ashes ♫
Sighing in the pillow
believing to see you every time as I wake up
Let me dance hung on you
and cry bravely as I'm clinging on you
Let me follow you and travel
even if the last minute I realize it's a dreamworld.
I'm not going anywhere but here
Ke Jie are you really willing to tie the yellow ribbon
and forgive me?
Hey.
Do you know that the song you're listening to is written from a true story?
Seems you don't want to listen so I won't speak.
Hey! You won't even eat my dumplings
You don't even tell me the story.
Do you want to listen?
Because he once told his wife if she's willing to forgive him
Otherwise, he will leave silently.
Dearest!
Are you okay?
It's nothing.
This story is too touching, it's almost a little scary.
Brother Mocheng, it's almost time to fetch Teacher.
Oh, right.
Where are you guys going? We planned to meet with teacher to visit my dad at the hospital
Oh, right. There's still a few flowers that I haven't finished working on. I'll leave it to you then.
Let's go.
I am leaving the bookstore to you
What is this situation. Even the helper can give me work.
How many bosses do I have?!
Du Ke Xin, what are you thinking about?!
Why would I think about Xiang Shu Lei and me?
What's wrong with me...
I must be too tired and stressed,
and developed paranoia.
No, I must find someone to talk to.
Find someone to talk to...
Emergency - Ambulance Lane.
Hello, Ke Xin? What a coincidence.
I'm in Yilan.
I'll be free after this.
Alright. I'll see you tonight.
Sister Xin Ni, thank you for accompanying me.
Don't worry, since I'm here, I will help you settle the deal.
Thank you.
Let's go.
You thought about buying clothes for your dad
You're a grown up at last!
Boss Yang, Teacher Chen,
I'm embarrassed, you guys took the trouble to come out here and visit me.
Are you feeling better?
Yes. I am as strong as a bull now.
Congratulations, you're finally going to be discharged.
It's good but,
thinking about the restaurant having no customers gives me a headache.
Aiyo, don't think too much. health comes first.
We'll take the business one step at a time.
Don't worry.
Woah, after I've been hospitalized
my son actually became so good. He actually used idioms.
Dad, that's a proverb, not an idiom.
Proverb?
What's a proverb?
Don't say anything more.
Ma, even the manager came sell it
Have our neighbors also sold?
Yes.
Then the restaurant that sells red bean cakes?
They sold it already
Mom, our neighbors have all sold already, why are you still holding on?
Come to Taipei
sign it
Thank you for the trouble.
Thank you.
Director Dong, thanks for coming specially to the hospital. You've worked hard.
No problem
I'll leave the rest of the details to you then.
Thank you.
Xiao Zhu, go drive the car over, I'll wait at the entrance for you.
-Alright.-Quickly go.
Thank you.
I've never thought of helping students through this method.
Rather than forcing them to face the situation, but instead making them become curious.
Turns out you can make curiosity turn into courage.
It's still early.
What do you mean?
It's not hard to gain courage. To be able to maintain it though,
is true bravery.
Ah Bi's courage might not necessarily stay until tomorrow.
He still has a lot of issues in his life that he needs to face.
I hope he can have the determination to hold onto his courage.
Determination?
You need determination, otherwise you can't move forward.
Talking about determination, I do have something to tell you.
I like you.
Can we date?
Hello? I'm Dong Xin Ni.
Hi, I am Nathaniel we went to college together.
Do you still remember me?
Yes, of course.
Do you like the roses I send to you? I have yet to receive a reply from you.
Hello?
Are you listening?
Yes, talk.
I, Daniel, loves woman with a character.
Let's have a candle-lit dinner tonight.
I'm not free and I'm at Yilan right now.
Well, Miss Dong...
For this, I'm willing to head down to Yilan.
I believe you wouldn't reject me, right?
Okay, tonight at 7
Why don't I even have the opportunity to stand by your side.
It's too painful.
Painful to the point that I need to date a lousy guy.
This...
That is because I do not want anyone
To disturb our first dinner together.
But, you don't seem to understand me well enough.
I prefer more lively restaurants
No, no, no...
I definitely did my homework(preparations)
for Dong Xin Ni.
Please sit.
Thank you.
I know you are very interested in red wine.
The most expensive wine in the world.
With the most beautiful woman in the world.
Cheers.
Dong Xin Ni, you disgust me.
I betrayed Ke Jie once, and I regret it.
And you wanted to betray her forever. I don't want to see you ever again.
No.
I want you because I admire you.
You better cooperate obediently.
No!
No is no, do you not get it?
Dong Xin Ni...
why are you punishing yourself in such manner?
Why are you going against yourself?
Who's going to pity you?
Why?!
Why are you doing this to me?!
How could I fall for my best friend's boyfriend?
Sister Xin Ni, where are you?
I've been waiting for you for a very long time.
Subtitles by the Lovestore at the Corner Team @Viki
What'd you want to talk about?
Sister Xin Ni, did my sister and you fall for the same guy last time?
Why do you ask? Did someone say something to you?
No.
Really? Then...?
It's just...
I'm saying since you're good friends with my sister,
Don't people say when that good friends are together
they will like the same things
So I asked whether if my sister and you had fell for the same guy before.
When people are around each other for a long period of time,
they'll naturally become more and more alike.
Perhaps, Ke Jie and I
may have fallen for the same guy before.
sister Xin Ni, do you think my sister and I are alike?
What kind of question is that You two of sisters of course you guys are alike
Especially more recently, every time I see you,
I feel that you resemble Ke Jie a lot.
Then if my sister and I have the same taste for men,
Are you trying to tell me that your sister and you have fallen for Xiang Shu Lei
and...you want me to tell you that it is normal for something like that to happen.
How is that possible for me to fall in love with my boss?
I...will never like him!
He is a man my sister likes. It's impossible for me to like him.
It's just that...lately I feel easily affected by him.
Whenever he's happy, I'm happy.
Whenever he's sad, I will feel sad too.
So I thought he's driving me nuts.
Don't overthink!
It's just that that feeling felt
like...
You like him.
How can that be?
It's impossible for me to fall in love with someone my sister likes.
That's betrayal! And I've came across an article saying that
betrayal is the most scariest thing.
They're always standing behind you, waiting to stab you in the back.
They always come from behind you.
When you're walking beside water, they come and push you down.
Without any strength, you fall down.
My betrayer is...
I think, no matter who it is, betrayal is very hurtful.
Moreover, it's my sister.
Liking someone is not something you can control.
And it's not as if you guys like the same guy, right?
-You mean...?-You like the bookstore owner, Yang Mocheng?
Yang Mocheng?
That's right. He's Yang Mocheng and not Xiang Shu Lei.
It's so comfortable.
Sister Xin Ni, thank you so much.
I've thought it through.
Even though me and Ke Jie don't care about the same guy,
but up until now, my good feelings towards Yang Mo Cheng are appreciation and gratitude.
It's like worshipping an idol, and nothing else.
So I've decided!
and sincerely be his friend.
Silly.
Sister Xin Ni, I don't know why
but everytime when I talk to you, I feel like I have learned a lot.
I want to talk to you like that non-stop.
Now that I come up her often for business, we'll have a lot of chances to meet up
If you need someone to talk to, you can call me anytime.
Really?
That's great!
I would have been better if I was closer with my sister before
You can treat me like your own sister.
Really?
Of course. Ke Jie's my good friend.
You're just like my sister.
Sister Xin Ni...
The hole in my heart from missing Ke Jie
You're so good to me, I finally understand.
It was me who was not willing to face reality.
In reality, Xiang Shu Lei no longer exists.
Only Yang Mocheng.
The disappearance of Xiang Shu Lei is a new chance for me to reconcile with him.
That's right!
Stop thinking up nonsense.
He's just a pen pal, it's nothing.
That's right, stop scaring yourself.
Ah Bi, go in and rest now. Remember to come to class the day after tomorrow.
Brother Mo-Cheng , teacher I will go in now. Bye Bye
Good bye.
I can't hit it.
Yes!
Wow! I hit it!
Ke Xin?! Are you okay?
Ke Xin?
Huh? What did you say?
Hey!
Sister, where are you?!
Sister!
Where are you?!
Sister...
Quickly go back with me.
If you don't come back now, Xiang Shu Lei is going to forget about you.
Do you really care about the me that's in your memories?
With your confusion, your feelings for Shu Lei,
aren't they your own?
Sister...
Sister, where did you go?!
I have a lot of questions to ask you!
Sister!
Where did you go?!
Sister!
Sister, where are you?!
Sister!
Ke Xin, are you okay?
Ke Xin? Are you okay?
Ke Xin!
Come, try waking up.
Does your head still hurt? Are you alright?
You got hit by the ball.
-Let me take a look. -Zexuan.
I dreamt...myself falling off a cliff.
And suddenly a man lends me a helping hand.
I was about to see his face,
but was woken up by you.
Miss, you got hit by the softball. Who cares about that dream?
That man must be me.
Come, try standing up and see if your head still hurts.
No, this won't do. Let's go to the hospital.
There's no need for that. I think I didn't sleep well last night.
Go into my bag and get Pak Fah Yeow (Analgesic Balm)
I'll be fine after applying it. Help me bring it over.
Will that work?
Yes. I'm feeling a little dizzy, that's all.
Really.
Wait for me.
Where is it?
Li Zexuan, have you found it?
Oh!
Are you feeling better?
Yes, I'm feeling better now.
You must be tired.
Before going back to Yilan, I'll take you to a steamboat house.
This looks pretty good!
We can try the set meal.
I like you. Can we date?
Hi, I'm Dong Xin Ni.
A good friend of Ke Xin and the owner of this bookstore.
Oh, hi. I'm Chen Yu Fan. It's nice to meet you.
But...do you know me?
Yes. Ke Xin often talks about you.
She said you're a very good teacher who treats the students well.
She also said Yang Mocheng and you are an item.
In future, can we still be friends?
In my heart, I've already count you as a good friend.
Then...can I have a friendship hug as a consolation?
Ke Xin misunderstood. We're not at that point of relationship yet.
Really?
I'm so sorry about it.
But, I do like Boss Yang.
And I won't give up so easily whenever I like somebody.
So, even though I don't have that sort of relationship with Boss Yang now,
but in the future it might not be the same.
That's true. Liking somebody is a good thing.
All the way!
Joy Of Reading Bookstore.
Going on break and didn't even say anything first
Sister Ke Xin, did ask you for leave
She said she had something to do today
Is she ill or did something happen at home?
Or else why didn't she turn on her cellphone?
Brother Mocheng, you asked me multiple times already.
It could be that Ke Xin went on a date in Taipei.
Why do you care so much?
That's right.
I have something else to do. I'm going out for awhile.
Today you are closing the store be careful
Where are you going at such late hour?
Forget it, I'll do the closing.
When you've finished Catcher in the Rye, read this book next.
What?
What is this?
If you don't want Chou Gui to bully you again,
then you better memorize this book from cover to cover.
Chou Gui?
How am I supposed to face Chou Gui with this one book.
You will understand in the future.
Du Ke Xin, where did you run off to?
You didn't excuse your absence, and you don't even have a reason.
And you didn't turn on your cell phone for the entire day. Is that the right attitude?
It was my bad that I didn't tell you I was taking leave from work.
I'm sorry.
Forget it. I'll take you home.
Hey, it's okay.
It is just Uncle Liu's stall is nearby
I can just walk
Before I think of something to punish you, quickly get in the car.
Hmm?
♫ We shouldn't... We shouldn't♫
Taking off a day from work, did you go on a date?
Was Ah Bi okay at work today?
He's decided to go back to school.
That fast?
Will that work?
I think so.
Ah Bi,
You even came to school
Then let me give you...
What are you doing?
It's you again!
It is four against one, don't you find it embarassing?
Don't be too rash.
One against four? Are you a retard? Go!
Wait, what are you doing?
Just leave it to us.
What are you doing? Don't try to be funny.
I'll give you a chance to go one on one.
If you lose, I want you to swear that
you will never find trouble with Ah Bi.
If I lose, I will not only give you a sum of money
but also let you do anything to me on free will.
Do you have the guts?
Okay!
Where?
Tonight at 8
Wait for me. Let's go!
Go! I will be waiting for you...
We will wait...
for you!
Hey.
This is a stick on tattoo, it was Ke Xin's idea.
These clothes, are ones that I handpicked out.
Even though my boss told me he was going out to buy tea leaves,
but I know he must be worried about Ah Bi, and went to school to protect him.
I'm just worried, he went to find Chou Gui to talk.
So I want you to pretend to be gangsters and protect my boss!
What? Wearing this?
Yes!
But, but, baseball bats should be enough to scare the kids, we don't need knives do we?
We have to make it look real!
Come, give me a malicious action.
You're holding it the wrong way!
Hold it properly.
Like this, looking cool.
Like this?
Here, hold it like this, a little scarier.
That's right.
That's not the way to hold it. Put it at the back and rest on it.
Come, start shaking your legs!
Shake and look cool!
Something's lacking...
Oh!
Good thing Ke Xin taught us well.
Or else we wouldn't know what to do if we really started fighting.
Yeah, we only wanted to put up a front.
Brother Mocheng, to think you can still laugh.
a one on one with Chou Gui, what are you planning on doing?
Don't worry, I have a plan.
One on one? Does he not know who I am?
I'm Chou Gui!
One on one, hah.
Boss, didn't you say one on one?
Why did you call so many of us here?
Do you not understand this tactic?
What if he brings 100 people along with him?
That's right.
Let's go!
You...came alone?
That's right.
Didn't you say you wanted to fight? Let's go then.
I just said one on one, I didn't say anything about a fight.
Then why'd you ask me to come here?
I'm here to make a bet.
On the floor are all the parts for a motorcycle.
If you can complete it in 2 days .. I will give you ten thousand
Boss, this is great.
We don't even need to bring out our guns or knives, and we can get 10,000 NTD.
You can get your brothers to help you.
Looks to me like this isn't your specialty.
You look down on me, huh?
Who's scared of who?
Hurry up!
Hang on.
I can't remember.
You have been memorising it the whole day,
You still don't know which one comes first?
Hey, one bike is really complicated.
It's hard to remember
You have to picture it in your mind first. If you can picture it, then you'll be able to remember.
Let me draw it for you.
Here. The car's frame is like this,
Okay, okay
Second question
Umm
You don't know this either? It's so easy.
-What's in your brain then? -Who can remember all this?
Thanks teacher.
How is it
Ke Xin is so violent, I've gotten hit so many times already.
Hey ! I am helping you
how are you going to remember it otherwise?
I have a really good trick for memorizing, I'll teach you.
That's great. He's too stubborn, I can't teach him.
Then...I'm not needed here. I'll get going.
I shall not be your lamp post.
Good bye.
-Good bye.-Hey.
It's late do you want me to send you home?
No need
Good bye.
♫ We shouldn't... ♫
♫ We want to transform into each other's ideal love♫
Sis , the one you love can't remember who you are
But, I don't think we're qualified to stop him from pursuing his own happiness.
am I right?
For memorizing, you need to picture images.
Look, like this one.
We used pictures to remember.
Sorry, can you lend me the paper for awhile?
Oh, sure.
Thank you.
lets continue
Look at this one.
I think, it's because there's too much chaos and confusion in life.
I've once dreamt
I really want to know who that person was.
But I couldn't see his face.
I will answer you with this.
When we read poems, it's not that we understand them and are inspired to write
but we do it to understand ourselves better.
What you really need to do, is understand yourself better.
and be the one to pull yourself out.
Can you all please be serious and stop playing around?
Didn't you say it would be easy?
We've barely gotten anything put together.
I just casually said it, boss you're the one that needs to face the challenge.
What did you say?
I said, boss you need to face the challenge...
What did you say...?!
Ah!
What was that for?
I thought of something!
What?
I saw him reading a book on this the other day.
Who?
Hey classmate, what are you looking at?
What is it?
-Ah Bi -Hey, hey, what do you guys want?
-Go!-You...!
Hey! What are you doing?!
Why did you bring me here?!
Stand properly!
A Bi , do you know what all of this is?
So what if I know?
What is this?
What about this?
Do you really know how to put this together?
I think so.
That's great hurry put it together
Why would I help you? You don't think I know?
If I help you, then you can get 10,000 NTD from Mo Cheng.
Why should I help you?
Damn!
Boss, we running out of time.
Our reputation is more important here, let's forget the money.
If you help me, then not only will I turn down the 10,000 NTD,
I'll even stop bullying you.
I want to get to know Yang Mo-Cheng not Xiang Shu Lei
Sell the bookstore?
I hope you can cooperate with us.
Or you can directly sell Joy of Reading Bookstore to my company.
Bad news, something bad happened!
Are you alright?
Go quickly, they wouldn't dare do anything to me. Go!
We'll go together!
Stop there! Don't you dare run!
Stop it!
Don't panic.
I don't wish to die!
I won't let you fall.
