Episode 11
So stupid, stupid, stupid.
I'm so stupid.
How could I say
that I'm Zhang You Tiao?s girlfriend?
I actually said I?m Zhang You Tiao?s girlfriend!
What was I thinking?
My brain was under
intense pressure.
Zhang You Tiao will laugh at me forever
if he finds out about this.
What will I do?
I am so stupid.
Hey!
Calm down, would you?
You?re disturbing my reading.
I need peace to read, understand?
If you want to make noise, do it outside.
Leave the hallway.
It?s a public hallway.
She didn?t hear me, did she?
It?s just playing the cello.
What?s so great about that?
I?m not bad, either.
My dad?s a rock star!
I think my waist is wider than hers.
That?s fine.
I have big, expressive eyes.
I?m so hungry.
I need to diet.
Can?t eat anymore.
Stay strong!
Actually,
I?m very lady-like.
You still remember when you did that thing?
Don?t bring it up.
What?
You want to wash the moped?
It was perfectly clean yesterday.
Today it?s all dirty.
Is it that dirty?
Besides
you?ve lived with Wang Min Qiang for so long,
you must be used to dirt.
Just make do.
What?
I?m not Min Qiang.
I can?t ride the bike without cleaning it,
so
come on, clean it with me.
Can?t you see how busy I am?
Clean it yourself.
That is our bike.
Didn?t you say we share it equally?
How can I be the only one to clean it?
You?re scrambling for reasons to get me out there, huh?
Let me tell you,
don?t think that just because the two of us share a bike
that you can order me around.
No.
I?m not attracted to guys.
Hurry up.
Let?s go.
I?m really busy, though!
Look.
It?s so dirty.
Indeed it is.
I?m wasting my precious time
to clean the bike with you.
See how nice I am.
Zhang You Tiao, why aren?t you over here wiping?
Luo-shixiong, come over and help me.
I can?t loosen the hose.
Loosen!
It worked.
How funny.
?You found a reason for me to balance
?You found an excuse for me to accept you
?I know what you?re thinking
Wake up, honey.
?but you can?t see how I feel
We?ve heard this song 800 times this week.
?Sky so black, wind so cold
I get sleepy as soon as I hear it.
Phone: Text Message Ding Ling
Come.
If I were Sun Tzu, maybe.
?Do you love me or not?
Jun Cai.
That...
Let?s stop here for today.
I?m busy, I gotta go.
Where are you going, Dad?
It?s time for practice.
Something urgent came up.
I have to go take care of it.
But...
Luo Man.
Professor Luo has important matters, just let him go.
Professor Luo,
don?t worry.
We?ll practice hard in your absence.
Nicely said.
Good luck.
Work hard. Work hard.
Luo Man,
what?s going on with your dad lately?
He?s so busy.
He always leaves after getting a text.
I don?t know either.
He?s not releasing a album, so what could it be?
Luo Man!
Zhang You Tiao, you?re finally here.
You?re so lucky, American friend.
Just got here and you can leave.
Luo Man.
The moped.
What?s wrong with the moped?
My goodness.
I never thought people?d steal a battery.
This is an art.
What are you saying?
They dared steal my battery.
If I capture them,
I?ll slice and dice them!
I only left here for a little while.
This is so strange.
It?s so important to me.
Let?s hurry up and report it.
What are you doing?
Don?t worry, our Jun Cai must have an idea.
Leave it to him.
Move, move, move.
What are you doing?
Okay.
Completely photographed.
Luo-shixiong, don?t worry.
I?ll definitely find a battery for you.
Can we count on him?
Luo Man, stop worrying.
Honey will catch the thieves.
He?ll hand them over to you for punishment.
But Luo Man, let?s promise first that
you can?t kill them when they?re found.
He?s back.
You found it?
Yes.
Honey.
Somehow it doesn?t look right, though.
I took so many pictures to make sure.
This battery model is definitely Luo-shixiong?s bike?s.
I?ll install it so you can see.
Hold on, Jun Cai.
Did you take this battery from someone?
Take it back.
Why?
This model will work just fine after it?s installed.
Even if it does, you took it from someone else.
This isn?t right.
What?s going on?
Why not?
D-didn?t someone steal our battery?
You shouldn?t learn from them.
You?re committing a crime like this.
I-I... I didn?t steal it.
I borrowed it.
When we get our battery back,
I?ll give this one back, too.
Jun Cai, just take it back.
I swear, you guys.
You know why I got this battery.
Do you know how long I looked for it?
I had to use intelligence and courage to get it.
I?m telling you?
Ma Jun Cai.
Alright.
I?ll take it back.
But I?m not sure I can find that bike again.
Who are you?
It?s time.
Time for what?
Let?s go.
Go where?
Come on.
Wang Min Qiang,
w-what?s going on here?
Internet friends.
I never knew
you were so capable.
Help me out.
Not a problem.
I?m a love expert who can do a job meant for two.
But
I can?t do anything that makes me sorry toward Wen Ting Ting.
Me... about me...
I...
I have a girlfriend.
I don?t have a girlfriend.
Bye.
Wang Min Qiang.
Are you alright or what?
The whole night,
all you said was, ?How do you do?? and ?goodbye.?
Nerves.
What toy is this?
Your hands sure were busy.
The girls ran away.
Take a look.
Boss,
you added one too many zeros.
You?re a funny one.
Here, for your gusto,
I?ll give you a discount.
A discount?
Can?t you make it cheaper than that?
I never thought a battery would be that expensive.
What to do?
Neither of us can ride the bike now.
Luo-shixiong.
I saw that batteries are really expensive on the internet.
I know.
We should have watched over it better,
doing things like taking shifts to stand watch.
Too little too late.
We should just sell it off.
What!?
Waiter.
Just a second.
Sell it.
We can?t ride it anyway.
At the very least we can get money for it.
We can just ride the bus to work.
Zhang You Tiao, you?re so cold hearted.
You?ve gotten along with it for so long.
Do you not have any feelings for it?
Just because it?s missing a battery, you?
Hold on, hold on.
You do this?
We can?t afford a battery.
You really are cold blooded.
Just sell it.
Why are you abandoning it?
We can ride the bus.
Hey! Zhang You Tiao.
Toughen up.
Work. Take the bus.
Why are you... Why...
Zhang You Tiao, how can you act this way?
What are you talking about?
Our moped?s battery
was stolen.
We can?t afford a new one.
The battery was stolen?
Is it expensive?
This brand is ¥900 at its cheapest.
That so?
Looks like your wages for one month
put together would be enough.
But now,
I?m afraid it might not be.
Standing instead of working.
I don?t want to deduct from your salary.
It?s all your fault!
It?s all because of you, because of you!
Been here long?
Not at all.
Two days ago,
I met with Zhang Hao?s girlfriend.
See? I was right.
As long as I ignore him,
he?ll
give up.
See?
Isn?t he doing well with someone else?
Do you know?
In China,
The species of rose we talk about (Rosa rugosa)
are really Rosa multiflora?
I?ve heard people say that.
Have you read The Little Prince?
I haven?t read any children?s stories in a while.
The Little Prince isn?t a children?s story.
It discusses
stories related to love.
In the story, there?s a rose.
The little prince
thinks his affections rest in this rose.
But in the end, he finds out
what he?s invested his interest in
is only the painstaking care he?s put into the rose.
People are the same way.
People think they?re affectionate about their partners,
but in the end, they find out
they only pay attention to what they?ve put in.
Their heart isn?t in it.
You think
that?s how Zhang Hao is?
I don?t know.
But
your heart knows.
No matter what choice you make,
it?s your choice in the end.
So don?t wonder too much.
I?ve already thought about what I should do.
Luo Man,
you already found a second job.
You still want another one?
Of course I do.
How can I buy the battery without it?
Stop! That?s for my?
How about I lend you my bicycle?
Can your bike really be a considered a replacement for walking?
It?s so slow, I might as well ride the bus.
You?re secretly dating other girls
behind my back, aren?t you?
You read their palms, didn?t you?
No, that... that was W-W-W-Wang Min Qiang?s date.
I noticed how he talks slow, so I wanted to regulate the atmosphere.
I told them as soon as I got there that I have a girlfriend.
Really, really.
You think I?m really gullible, don?t you?
I?m not lying, just go ask Wang Min Qiang.
You guys must?ve joined forces already.
Looks like Ma Jun Cai won?t be eating this.
You eat it.
You said you could trust me.
I?m not that sort of person.
Think about how long we?ve been together.
When have I ever had a problem?
I haven?t because I?m not that kind of person.
If I was, I would do things like that.
But I?m not.
You can?t blame an innocent person.
I?ll take it.
I?m sorry.
I missed you,
so I came without calling.
It?s fine.
I was about to give you a call.
Really?
What?
Are you not used to me calling you?
A little bit.
But that?s great.
I?m really happy.
Let?s go.
I...
You go first.
You go ahead.
Where do you want to go?
How about we see a movie?
It seems like we?ve
never seen a movie together.
Okay.
Wang Min Qiang,
hurry up and tell Ting Ting.
Yes.
Yes what?
Ting Ting.
I absolutely did not do anything I need to apologize for.
Right.
Wang Min Qiang,
I helped you pick up girls.
You help me by saying something.
Can?t you prove my innocence?
You made me fail.
See?
I made him fail.
How does him failing
prove whether you succeeded?
I failed the most.
Right, my good brother.
Go away.
How do I know
you said you had a girlfriend from the start?
Or was it that your skills in picking up girls didn?t work?
I...
He said
he has a girlfriend.
This time I?m forced to believe you.
Hug.
But you hugged Wang Min Qiang.
I hugged Wang Min Qiang.
Didn?t we come to play basketball?
I need to find a job first.
You?re looking for a job?
Why?
I want to make money.
Have you been short lately?
I want to buy something.
Caring Brother.
Can you smile?
What do you mean?
I could help you out if you can smile.
So can you?
It?s a little rough.
Let?s go!
Where to?
I?m giving you a job.
Jiejie (Young miss),
I brought this out exclusively for you.
Okay, okay.
Good thing you remember I like to eat apples.
Of course I do.
Zhang Hao,
I want to buy a kilogram of grapes today.
Grapes, grapes...
Come with me.
Since the manager?s not here, I?ll let you in on
how good the Honeydew melons are today.
Really.
Okay, I?ll buy 5 kilos.
Okay.
I?ll have the same.
Excellent.
Okay.
Jiejie, jiejie.
Let me introduce my good friend,
Li Xiu Qi.
He?s more considerate than me.
We?ll be helping you out together from today on.
Introduce yourself.
Hello.
You can do it. Hurry up.
Da Ma, our melon?s are very fresh today.
*Da Ma - literally means aunt, an affectionate term used for a lady who?s old enough to be a grandmother
It?s all right, it?s all right.
It?s fine.
Zhang Hao.
Business isn?t going well today.
Don?t you worry, manager.
This is my good friend Li Xiu Qi.
We?ll draw in even more customers.
You?re new.
From now on, learn from Zhang Hao.
Understood.
Okay.
Zhang Hao,
I think I might not be the right fit for this job.
Why do you think that?
Because
I can?t sweet talk.
Okay.
Have you ever thought how
you can give motivation
to those young ladies who work hard
cooking and taking care of their families
everyday?
We?re only selling fruit, not saving the world.
It?s not that serious.
No, no, no.
Selling fruit
and saving the world
are the same thing.
Okay?
Catch.
Today?s class was so boring.
Um, what?
I can?t chat today.
Alrighty.
Milk tea.
Who were you on the phone with?
A classmate.
Must?ve been a girl.
You sounded so close.
I swear, Ting Ting,
it was just a classmate.
Why are you so nervous?
Why didn?t you pick up?
I didn?t recognize
the number.
It could be a sales pitch to buy insurance.
How would you know if you didn?t pick up?
You?re clearly acting guilty.
Hello?
What?
I?m not buying insurance.
Thanks.
See?
I said it was about insurance.
What insurance?
I want to buy my dad some.
I didn?t save the number.
Ting Ting,
I need to go to class.
Don?t make wild guesses.
You?re the only one in my heart.
I?m going to class.
Don?t let your imagination run wild.
Ting Ting.
What?s wrong?
I keep thinking Jun Cai?s acting strangely.
Am I really good-looking?
Just look at yourself.
Still thinking of earning money?
I am.
Of course I want to.
But
I didn?t earn any money looking like this today.
I even... dragged you down.
That?s why I?m giving you a special lesson.
A special lesson?
Let?s go.
Okay, tell me
what you?re feeling right now.
Why is your reaction the same as Luo-shixiong?s?
This is my specialty.
What kind of lesson is this?
Caring Brother,
you need to learn how to move people with expressive eyes.
With my eyes?
Mm-hmm.
Wang Min Qiang.
Right now.
Look at him
and move him
using your eyes.
Ting Ting.
I was waiting for you.
I bought these sweets for you.
Are you sure you bought them for me?
Of course.
Who else would they be for?
You buy anything for me?
No.
Then why were you looking for me?
To help Ting Ting carry stuff.
Are you sure that girl just then didn?t want them,
so you gave them to me?
Ting Ting.
That girl is my underclassmen.
I happened to run into her.
We talked about a science problem.
I don?t believe you.
Then...
I?ll call her back and you can confront her.
Okay.
Ting Ting, don?t be like this.
Why don?t you believe me?
I only have you, not her.
Her?
Which her?
Who?s ?her??
Ting Ting, why don?t you believe me?
I still have to do a science report.
I?m not finished yet.
I have to hurry back and write it.
Ting Ting.
I don?t get it.
Ma Jun Cai is so good to you.
Why are you always angry?
I don?t know either.
I just feel like he?s been weird lately.
Smile.
Move the other person.
You can do it.
Okay.
The?
The big grapes are good.
Then help me wrap them up.
Wrap them up.
Okay.
Are your eyes all right, young man?
They?re fine, they?re fine.
Thanks, jiejie.
Bye-bye.
Very cool.
You sold some today
and
got people?s interest.
But it looks like the manager?s not satisfied with me.
Don?t worry about him.
He?s just interested in getting good profits.
Now I think you and Luo Man
are really extraordinary.
More than you?
See?
You can look at this from so many angles.
I?m just joking.
Come on.
Did you get my mail?
About that company we?re going to invest.
I took a look at their financial statement.
As you can see,
they grew around 15% compared to last year.
That?s fishy.
Yes.
I?d love to meet someone from the financial department.
Okay.
Okay, I?ll wait for your news.
I?ll talk to you soon.
Bye.
Phone: Shu Qing
Did something happen to make you call me?
Can?t I just call you?
It?s your first time calling me on your own.
I?ll slowly get used to it.
Me too, actually.
Can we meet today?
What about tomorrow?
My schedule?s full today.
Does this count as the first time you?re rejecting me?
No.
I?m kidding.
See you tomorrow.
Zhang-jie.
I?m in the restaurant.
You haven?t been here in forever.
What?
It?s hard to buy that brand?s limited quantity.
I did not. You?re so good at convincing.
Okay, okay. I?ll think about it.
Yeah.
I have a friend who can help you.
Don?t worry.
Leave it to me.
Alrighty.
Bye-bye.
Impossible!
Are you joking?
How can I stand in line as a rock star
to buy some limited purse?
What will I do if I?m recognized?
Impossible!
Couldn?t you just disguise yourself?
Besides,
do that many people really recognize you?
I don?t care.
I already promised my good friend I would get it.
You do something.
How about this?
I?ll give you even more compensation.
¥500 if you buy tomorrow.
¥800 if you buy today.
How about it?
What ?how about it??
Alright, it?s decided then.
I?ll wait for your news.
Right now!
Hello?
I never promised you.
How can such a woman exist
on this Earth?
What?s with the front?
Don?t know.
What?s going on?
Security?s here, security?s here.
Who?s in there?
He?s coming out, coming out.
Someone?s really in there.
Is he a star?
This guy?s messing around.
So weird.
I like that brand!
Let?s go, let?s head over there.
I think...
Don?t worry, I?m just going to look.
I?m giving you all a good lesson
before practice today.
What?s moral integrity?
What?s going on?
Why are there only two people here for
t-this important course?
Zhang Hao?s work has something going on.
He can?t come.
Ma Jun Cai and Wen Ting Ting went shopping.
Can?t contact them.
What?s that, Dad?
Don?t worry about this.
I?m telling you guys,
as an artist
and as a rock star,
you have to stand up straight.
Understand?
Don?t be overtaken by a common person
for the sake of making money.
What the use of money?
I have to answer this.
Why is he leaving?
It?s class time!
Jun Cai, do you think
that brooch we saw while we were shopping
was really pretty?
Yeah...
But it was a little expensive.
Don?t worry, don?t worry.
I?m just saying, that?s all.
Don?t get unhappy.
I?m not unhappy.
I-I?m really not unhappy.
I, um...
I?m going to the bathroom.
Wait for me.
What?s wrong, Ting Ting?
I keep thinking Jun Cai?s been acting strangely.
Who were you on the phone with?
A classmate.
Must?ve been a girl.
Sounded so close.
I, um...
I?m going to the bathroom.
What is his password?
It?s your birthday.
Jun Cai.
I...
I?m not...
I...
Now you know the password.
Open it.
I?m not looking.
Look.
(Text: Is this the corsage you wanted? I talked it over with the owner, he?s going to give you a discount. Come on over)
Wen Ting Ting,
why don?t you trust me?
This brooch is what I asked my underclassman
to ask around for and buy for you.
That day in front of the dorms when you saw us talking,
I was asking her how much of a discount I could get.
She broke up recently.
I was comforting her.
That?s what that was about.
I had wanted to surprise you.
Looks like now
this will be my final gift.
Jun Cai! Let me explain.
Jun Cai!
