You're the legendary Death?
I'm just the guardian of this bridge.
Only when you can't cross it
would I then become Death.
Flowers bloom on the wild decadent unhesitating area
You say it does not matter if we no longer continue breathing
In the end after the sunrise, she breaks down into foam
At the end of the whirlpool, there is neither you nor me
We reminisce about whether we had a brief encounter

Li You
Bye.
You're going to miss him?
Although your lover’s gone,
you still have me, your best friend, right?
Let's go,
or the teacher's going to think we're skipping class.
You’ve cried?
No, I haven't...
Come on, we have to run.
Who are you?
What are you looking for?
I'm looking for Captain Ah Guo.
He graduated last year and he got accepted to Tai Ti University.
The current captain is Hua Lu Shui.
Really?
What about his sister Xiao Ju then i *
She said she needed to focus on the Chemistry Olympiad,
so she left the basketball team as well.
You're not really here to find someone, are you?
What exactly are you looking for?
Nevermind.
It s been a while since I've seen Du.
Idiot, what are you thinking?
What if she shows up and takes someone away again?
Take some rest, okay?
I’m trying to get ready for the Olympiad!
You keep messing around!
I have an English oral competition tomorrow as well.
Take a break.
Come on...
Okay...
It's so hard...
Rest a little.
Let me help you exercise!
Do you feel that?
Okay, okay, stop!
Hello?
Oh, Li You?
I'm at my friend's place.
Yes, I’m getting ready for the Olympiad.
It's so hard.
I'll call you...
I'll call you back later.
Okay, bye bye.
Why do you keep bothering me?
In the twenty-first century,
we are always talking about free, equal, and fair.
In my opinion,
it's all a matter about education.
In the past decade,
all the students were divided by grades.
We called it ability class grouping.
Which means....
Do they teach how to fix cars up here?
Yes, it says right there.
Can't you see?
Every time,'I want to change the levers and exhaust pipe,
some are even fake.
Exactly.
Do we have any choices?
Nowadays, we have a brand new treatment of education.
That is, normal class grouping.
Normal class grouping...
Then, there's a noise.
All he wants is speed,
but he doesn't even know how to stop.
See, you should have first changed the back tire and shock absorber.
That way the car would be must smoother.
Can you be quiet please?
Everybody has opportunities
to compete with all different kinds of students.
That is truly fair, equal and fair.
Am I right?
Who's with me?
Thank you.
Thank you teacher.
It's all thanks to your efforts.
She knows to work hard.
Of course...
How? You...
Xiao Dao, Pei Pei.
Button your shirts up, fix your uniforms.
Hurry up.
Are they in Qiao Qiao's class too?
During the speeches,
the two of them kept chatting back there.
They were talking about something like auto modifications.
Qiao Qiao s mother,
she can’t be reporting us to that old witch, can she?
Although Qiao Qiao s speech just now highlights the merits of a split class,
I'm still worried.
These kinds of students, who don't like to study...
Wouldn't they affect the other students?
It's hard to say these kinds of words in a speech,
but you can be at ease.
I will work hard to maintain this class's average.
Yes... then I can relax.
One, two, three...
You knew you would get first place, didn't you?
Bringing your camera...
I like taking pictures.
Call me the Selca expert.
Seven.
The collector is here
Excuse me students.
but it's time to'hand in class fees.
How much do we have to pay?
You need to pay NT$5oo.
$500 again i
Our losses are great.
Sorry
At this rate, I'm not going to have money for lunch.
Xiao Dao, come out for a minute.
Did Xiao Dao do something again.
Probably caught racing cars again.
You don't work hard in this class at all.
Even other parents are complaining.
Let me see
why don't you directly move to a different class then?
Change class?
Good grades and winning prizes,
you're so above us, aren't you?
What s wrong with you?
You're so dirty!
Take a look for yourself.
That old witch wants me to change classes again.
Change classes?
Stop acting dumb.
What exactly did your mother say to her?
I don't know.
Sure you don't know.
It was when you were saying your speech just now,
your mother was yelling at me, didn't you know?
What exactly do you want?
What do I want?1
l've been at this school for four years now.
All I want is to graduate.
You'd better not bother me.
When have I done that?
You know,what you’ve done!
If you do this again,
I won't let you two live in peace.
Why is Xiao Dao randomly accusing people
It might actually be my mom...
What was she thinking?
Saying bad things about people.
Be careful after school today.
Let's go together.
Your lover sent you a message?
I want to see.
Li You said
that there's no way he can come spend time with you again this weekend.
Poor Xiao Ju.
It's okay.
What’s wrong?
You guys have only been apart for a little over half a year,
but your love has become so indifferent.
No, it hasn't.
It's just that we haven't seen each other for too long.
I don't even know what he's thinking now.
Could he have changed his mind?
Then it's you who’s two-timing?
Tell me.
Who are you with right now?
I'm with everyone right now,
like you right now.
Okay.
Then you should make it clear that you're going out with me now
Okay.
Isn't money what you want?
What else do you want?
You think giving me that little money
means that you've fulfilled your familial responsibilities?
These past few years,
have you ever cared about our family?
Did you even know that
Qiao Qiao got first place in her English speech competition?
Did you even know that she had a cold and fever last week?
She was sick?
Why didn't you tell me?
Why don't you ever take the initiative and call back?
The way I see it,
you’ve never placed your daughter in your heart.
Don't always use our daughter as an excuse to malign me alright.
Since when have I wrongly accused you?
You’re never asking or caring about her,
so I don't need you pretending to now.
I’m wrong when I care
and I'm wrong when I don't care.
Fine, I'll leave.
You.
Where are you going?
Go then, go.
Since you’re so eager to get a divorce anyway.
Always hurrying away from the two of us.
Dad came by?
Yes.
Take a look at the contract,
I picked it especially for you.
They have a house.
Once you're twenty years old,
it'll be under your name.
Who would want his and that woman's house?
This is our home!
But he wants to sell this home.
Sell it?
He said he'll give us money to rent a different apartment.
And you just let him sell it?
It's part of the contract.
What can I do?
So you've all decided already?
Then why'd you tell me to look at it?
You.
Oh right,
when the speech competition ended today,
what did you say to Teacher Li?
I didn't say much.
I just saw there there were a few delinquents in your class.
and wanted to find out more.
And asked if she could transfer them to other classes.
Then everything I said today onstage,
did you really not understand, or ire you pretending you don't?
Those are only theories,
they're completely different from reality.
Why else would I take the trouble to go and beg
In order to let you switch to Teacher Li's class?
Can you please not do this?
You're making it really hard for me in class.
Do your best!
Who said that the prince and princess would be happy after getting married?
Everyone says that.
Look,
even Li You thinks that.
If I was a free man,
than we can be happily together.
What does that mean?
She said she wants to do surgery.
She wants to change her gender?
Be quieter!
She's probably doing this because of you.
I like her the way she is now.
There's no need for her to change.
Whether she’s a guy or a girl, is there a difference?
There is.
But didn't you say before,
gender has nothing to do with happiness?
But as soon as I think about her becoming a guy,
it just doesn't work.
I understand now.
Understand what?
You only respond to female hormones,
so that means you are homosexuals.
Yeah right.
Okay... you're not.
I am.
Okay?
How do you know you are?
You don't believe me?
Then I'll prove it to you.
What if someone sees?
They won't.
Look at this straight pressure pipe
It's on sale for only NT$6;ooo.
Look, it's blue.
It’s so cool!
Of course, you're spending $6,000
to exchange for a $12,000 ticket.
So you like to modify cars, yet are afraid of tickets.
Fine, let me take a look.
Look at that Xiao Ju.
As soon as she saw us,
she turned away and left.
It's as if she's guilty of something.
She'can't be saying bad things about me to the teacher yesterday, right?
Who told you to irritate them yesterday?
You even threw your paper into her lunch.
She dares to tell that to the teacher?
I'm going to settle this with her right now!
Settle what?
At least wait till school's out.
Look at that Xiao Ju.
As soon as she saw us,
she turned away and left.
It's as if she’s guilty of something.
Sh'e'can't be saying bad things about witch again, can she
Who told you to irritate them yesterday?
You even threw your paper into her lunch.
She dares to tell that to the teacher?
I'm going to settle this with her right now!
Settle what?
At least wait till school's out.
What are you doing?
You want to research about me?
Why would I.
It s just that I haven't seen you for a long time.
I didn't know where you’ve gone to.
When someone summons me with the rock,
you will see me then.
But I don't want to see you take someone else away again.
You're being too much of a busybody.
Look at him.
Perhaps I should find the rock.
So?
You plan to secretly hide it?
No.
I just want to know what it is.
He's talking to air.
I think he should be reading some
Yeah.
So strange.
I didn't really eat anything at lunch.
What do you want to eat now?
I think my mom must have cooked something.
Do you want to come to my place?
Okay.
Xiao Ju!
It's Shen Qi.
Shen Qi!
Why did you run over here like that?
Are you alright?
Xiao Ju,
Li You's rock...
Shen Qi!
Shen Qi!..
Hang on!
What should we do?
You guys, please wait outside.
Who can help him fill out the forms?
I'll definitely be expelled this time.
You won't.
It was just an accident.
Oh please,
You guys are the good kids.
When you guys say it's an accident,
everyone will believe it.
But we re not the same.
Xiao Ju,
Teacher Li said that the Chemistry teacher is looking for .you.
What is it?
You're both good students.
so it'll definitely be something nice.
Why are you being so sour?
What exactly is it?
It's something about Xiao Ju getting qualified I
for that Australia something!..
It's the Chemistry Olympiads.
Yes!.. That's it.
That's fantastic!..
Congratulations, Xiao Ju.
I am really congratulating Xiao Ju.
Are you for real?
You're really something.
So you actually went to that witch to say good things about me
Yet you didn't tell me,
so I misunderstood you guys.
Don't mind about my mother,
and that'll be fine.
But you've got some skills.
Saying that I helped you repair your bike.
I can only repair motorcycles.
How would I know how to repair a bicycle.
I was just making stuff up.
It doesn't matter.
Alright.
Anyhow, from now on, your matters
are my matters.
that's more like it.
Congratulations, Xiao Ju.
Congratulations.
Hello.
Hi.
Are you alright?
just a bone fracture
and a slight brain concussion.
I won't be able to return to school yet.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
I was the one who shouldn't have crossed when it was a red light.
You were in such a hurry to come over,
what was so urgent i
It's not anything important.
I just wanted to ask
if you've been in touch with Li You recently.
I have,
but we haven’t met for a long time.
Is that so?
Can you help me ask if she still has the rock?
Oh right, Shen Qi,
did the doctor say when you can leave the hospital?
No.
I might have to go through a few more checkups.
This is the rock that Li You used to summon Death?
Just before she left the school,
I asked her to give it to me.
What, you want it as a token of love?
No.
It was because she was feeling a lot of pressure.
I was afraid that she would think of silly things,
so I asked her for it.
You clearly love her a lot.
I did before.
But I'm not too sure about it now.
Alright.
I'll confiscate this rock for now.
Why are you taking it?
I'm afraid that you would keep thinking about her.
You're so full of jealousy.
I am.
The moon is so bright today.
I really want to enjoy nature.
Take a guess,
what's the most fun way to travel around the world?
Go on a cruise?
Ride in a hot air balloon?
None of the above.
It's to go out and have fun with your best friend.
That's the most fun!
It's the most fun to be with Qiao Qiao!
Of course.
Let's go on a trip next week.
Okay.
You'll be responsible for planning on where we go.
I'll pay the travel fees.
Did you become rich?
Where do you have the money?
Didn't I get qualified for the Chemistry Olympiad?
The teacher said there's a NT$20,000 prize money.
NT$20,000?
We can go for a whole week then!
Xiao Ju, you're so talented.
Xiao Ju,
you smell very nice.
Your body is so soft.
You also smell very nice.
Can I sleep at your place tonight?
I want to sleep.
Is this considered as being together?
I don't care.
Kiss me.
I want to capture the evidence.
Hurry.
You're really a selca expert.
Hurry.
Hurry, kiss me.
One more.
What is it?
You can't sleep?
I love you.
I love you so much that I can't sleep.
Let's go to bed.
Is she doing well?
You'll see for yourself in a bit.
Why are you asking me?
It feels great to be back, *4
What's so great about this old county?
There's too much gossip in Taipei.
It feels much more relaxing here.
Alright, don't think too much.
Let’s go.
My sister will definitely be very happy to see you.
Xiao Ju!
Come out for a minute!
Look who's here.
Long time no see.
Here.
Here, this is for you.
Thanks.
Sorry,
we only have these few dishes left at home.
My mom is at work right now.
This is already more than enough.
1 brought some wine.
You guys drink
I don't drink.
It's okay.
Just drink a little.
Cheers.
For the reunion.
Hurry and drink up!
Stop staring at each other in front of me.
It s so disgusting.
I miss you, can't sleep.
Who is it?
It s me.
Wait a minute please.
I miss you a lot.
I miss you, can't sleep.
Who is it?
It s me.
Wait a minute please.
I miss you a lot.
What's the matter?
I'm afraid that my brother would see.
If your brother was really against us,
I wouldn't be here right now.
Can I go in and have a talk with you?
In the last 6 months,
I've been thinking about my life
and my relationship with you.
I've been thinking about whether there's something I can do.
It's okay.
It's probably just a classmate.
So I talked with a psychologist,
and my mom and dad.
We've discussed it thoroughly.
And even my grandma accepted it in the end.
But you never discussed it over with me.
You didn't ask me
whether I needed a guy.
But.
Deep down inside you, you're really a guy.
You’re just like my brother,
always selfishly making the decisions for me.
Xiao Ju,
I didn't mean it like that.
Do you know that I can change a lot for you?
But for you, I can also
not change a thing at all.
What is it?
You've found someone else?
No.
It's just a good friend.
And it’s a she?
What are you doing scaring people?
You get scared that'eas ily^
It s a holiday today.
what are you doing here?
I can't bear to leave you alone to have classes on a holiday.
How was it?
Is the Chemistry Olympiad hard?
It s finish didn t beat me.
You're that good?
Great.
Then let's talk about where we houLd g© or' emr (.tip Later.
Look, I've prepared so much reference here.
We can go to Nantou,
or Wulai,
or go rafting in Hualien.
We might as well make it a global tour.
Alright, a'global tour is not likely.
But we can still go check out.Wulai in Taipei.
Never been there.
What do you think?
Should be fun.
She’s here.
I'll leave first then.
Wait.
She's already here to pick you up.
What else can I do?
Wait here.
Is she that good friend of yours?
She is Qiao Qiao.
We are going to study at her place.
Get in then. I'll drive you guys.
It's not necessary.
I already came here anyway.
But you guys don’t know each other.
It’s weird.
If you don't want me to drive you, then fine.
111 just go.
If we have one week,
we must go to Ching Jing Farm.
Auwanta Forest Park!
We can skip Wuling and Ho Huan Mt..
Please enjoy.
Thanks.
You are drinking mine.
Sorry.
Is it.
Is it because you don't want to go travel with me?
It's nothing like that.
I just stayed up too late last night.
What?
You two talked all night long?
Did not.
How about this?
Tonight, you can sleep at my place.
I can guarantee a good night sleep till morning.
What do you say?
My brother won't allow.
Just tell him we have a test and we are studying together.
But she came all the way here.
This would be rude.
Then spend the rest of your life with her.
Then you won't feel rude.
Don't be childish.
Sit down.
If you really want to go back to her,
you can go.
I just can't get it straight.
Study?
You can't study at home?
Isn't being with each other a bigger distraction?
And Li You made such a great effort today.
She went all the way just to buy you a steak.
Your favorite steak!
And said she would cook it for you.
Now you're saying you're not coming back all of a sudden.
Really? # •
Her English is that good?
Good enough to teach you?
Well Li You is here.
Isn't it better if she teaches you?
I don't care.
Come back home immediately!
She hang up on me.
Don't bother cooking.
She's not conning back.
We can eat it ourselves.
Didn't you go to school to pick her up?
Why didn't she come back with you?
She went to Qiao Qiao's place,
and she didn't want my ride.
Why?
They probably want some time alone with each other.
Alone with each other?
Just eat.
Could it be...
What are you doing?
I'm calling to ask her.
She turned off her phone.
I’ll call Qiao Qiao's home.
If she doesn’t want to answer then just leave it.
Don't push her.
What "don’t push her"?
How old is she right now?
I won't let her be affected by bad influences.
What do you mean bad influences?
You really haven't changed at all.
Is that a fair thing to say?
Haven't I changed enough for you two?
What about her?
She doesn't have a clue what she's doing.
Alright, stop calling!
Hello, is this Qiao Qiao's home?
Are you her mother?
Is my sister over there?
Is that a fair thing to say?
Haven't I changed enough for you two?
What about her?
She doesn't have a clue what she's doing.
Alright, Stop calling!
Hello, is this Qiao Qiao's home?
Are you her mother?
Let it go.
Don't be angry, okay?
Why does he think he can control us like that?
Because he doesn't know that we've grown up already.
Right?
Qiao Qiao, what are you doing locking yourselves inside?
Open up!
Xiao Ju,
your brother just called to ask you to go home.
Hurry up, get your things ready to go.
What are you hurrying her away?
Xiao Ju, it's not that I want you to leave.
But your brother doesn't want you to sleep at our place.
Where is your bag?
Here.
Mom, why are you being so impolite?
How polite should I be then?
It's her brother that just called to complain
Complain about what?
Alright.
Let me ask you,
are you two in love with each other?
Please don’t listen to my brother's nonsense.
Xiao Ju, I don't want to embarrass you.
I think you'd better just go home.
Go...
Don't push her!
You think you can push my classmate just because you are my mother?
What kind of classmates are you?
Do you need to sleep together because you are classmates?
I'm out of here.
Xiao Ju!
Get back in here!
Fine, I will just tell you frankly.
I like girls.
And I like Xiao Ju.
I just want to be her, what are you going to do?!
Qiao Qiao, listen to Mommy.
People change.
As long as you want to get better whole-heartedly,
you can still become normal again.
What is "normal ?
What is "to get better"?
Or do you want to be a'lesbian for the rest of your life?!
So what?
You are still young.
you don't understand.
This is only temporary.
Everything will be fine once you are separated.
You are the one who doesn't understand!
Why do we have to part because ©it giuys den t" jndsrstaitd
Where are you going?
I’m going after Xiao Ju
You dare go...
Get back in here!
I’m sorry...
What do we do now?
I don't know either.
So annoying.
I really want to get out of here.
I want some fresh air too.
Why don't we go to Nantou?
Right now?
Oh right.
Camera.
Rock.
I knew it was in this bag.
Look.
What?
This is our class fee for the semester.
There's NT$2000
You want to use the class money?
I don't think this is a good idea.
Isn't your award money coming soon anyway?
We can put it back in here later.
What do you say?
Does this...
consult as running away from home?
Of course not.
We are just going on a trip for a few days.
Okay?
Then I'll send a text message home first.
I didn't even bring my cell phone.
I don't care anymore.
I want to go far away and overlook a sea of clouds!
I want to breathe in the fragrance of the forest's essence!
And the sunrise!
And the milky way!
It doesn't matter where I go
as long as it's with my best friend.
