Have you bungee jumped before?
Before you jump, you're anxious, scared, nervous... and thinking of this and that.
But once you gather the courage to jump,
you forget everything.
I am an adult.
When dealing with any type of problem, the so-called adults
should face it bravely, right?
How is it? Are you scared?
Or should we not jump?
It's fine. We're already here.
Plus, I'm not too scared.
It's just that I don't know why you asked me to go bungee jumping all of a sudden.
Because... I want to commemorate this moment.
What do you mean?
You'll know in a bit.
Are you ready?
3, 2, 1... Jump!
Xiao Qian, will you marry me?
How can you act this way?
Why would anyone propose like this?
I just said that I wanted to commemorate this moment,
and now you know why.
No matter what happens in the future,
as long as we remember this moment where we jumped regardless of danger
then what other problems can't we resolve in our lives?
Bai Shao Qi, you're too much!
How can I say no when you do it like this?
Is it that you don't want to marry me?
We've been together for so long already.
You clearly know what type of person I am.
Marry me!
Let me take care of you.
During that moment, I knew that I wouldn't be alone again in my life.
There is a person who loves me...
who tightly holds my hands.
I wouldn't be lonely again.
That year, I was 29 years old.

Episode 1
Xiao Qian.
Auntie.
Xiao Qian, I'm really thankful that you're willing to marry our Shao Qi.
Auntie, don't say it like that.
Why are we still so distant when we're a family?
You should call me "Mom" from now on, okay?
Right.
Mom.
Shao Qi's dad and I are usually in the U.S,
leaving him alone here in Taiwan.
It's great to have you to take care of him now!
Did you know that you bring luck to your husband?
Bring luck to my husband?
When you guys decided to get married,
I asked Shao Qi to give me your birth date and horoscope information,
and I went to see a fortune teller for you guys.
You guys are a great match!
They said that you have luck in aiding your husband.
Really?
Mom!
What are you two talking about?
-We're talking about you. -Me?
I've been telling Xiao Qian that she has the luck to aid her husband.
Your good fortune is about to come!
Really? I beg you to not be so superstitious!
The president is calling me.
He said he wasn't coming.
Let me take the call.
President! Yes...
No, you're not interrupting anything.
The guests are still arriving.
Oh... you have something important to say. Please go ahead.
Really?
Thank you, President!
This is the best wedding gift!
Alright, alright. Thanks!
What Mom said was totally right!
You really bring prosperity to your husband.
Do you remember when I told you that the vice president of our company was scouted by someone else?
That position was vacant, right?
The president just called to ask me to take that position.
I've become the vice president!
I am the company's youngest vice president since its founding, Mom!
I said that she would bring you prosperity and now it has come true, hasn't it?
Yes!
This is great! He wants me to go immediately to Shanghai to take office.
What? You have to go to Shanghai?
Yeah. Didn't I tell you that this position is going to be in Shanghai?
You will be happy for me, right?
Of course.
You're just too cute, my wife!
Of course, I am happy for him.
My luck in bringing him prosperity is really strong.
My husband got his dream job the day of our wedding.
How can I not be happy?
But I can't help but think... What about me?
What should I do?
Xiao Qian, don't be so worried!
Shanghai and Taipei are very close.
It'll be like taking the high-speed rail.
Are you ready, my bride?
I shouldn't be thinking like this, right?
Why would it matter if we are in two different places?
We're already husband and wife.
Shao Qi sincerely cares for me.
It's alright as long as our hearts are together, right?
I'm sorry.
Next time I have a break, I'll definitely make up with a really magnificent honeymoon.
Have you heard of the saying "the days are long?" (meaning there is plenty of time to do things)
I'm not scared of you running away.
You sure you're not unhappy?
I'm not.
I knew it. You are different from the girls I knew before.
You're strong, independent and are always looking at things from my perspective.
Thank you.
You have to take care of yourself well, okay?
You too.
Calling for passengers for plane to Shanghai.
It's almost time for me to go.
Bye bye!
♫ ♫
During that moment,
why did I feel like something was missing from my life?
♫ ♫
Is it loneliness?
Perhaps it is.
But... this is part of growing up.
This is necessary in the process of becoming a woman.
♫ ♫
I'm still learning.
I can definitely do it!
♫ ♫
Jiang Xiao Qian, fighting!
You are going to be okay!
♫ ♫
I really feel that these 3 years were alright.
Compared to women who are tied down by marriage,
I'm living freely, alright?
I eat whatever I want.
I go wherever I want,
and I can watch DVDs the whole night without anyone interfering.
I... am extremely happy.
Then why can't I feel your happiness?
You are a professional.
Is there only one way to express your definition of happiness?
Like this? Or like this?
Jiang Hsiao Qian, your happiness is an act.
You are not happy.
My happiness is real. I'm not acting.
Some people don't realize they are acting.
It's a type of subconcious action.
You fool yourself and others
to assure others.
Please, Xia Yi Qing.
I'm your best friend, not your patient!
I came here to chat with you. Just because I'm sitting on this chair,
doesn't mean you can use that tone with me.
Miss Jiang, I collect fees for my sessions,
and I charge sky high rates.
I know. I know.
You are wasting your hour chatting with me instead of earning money.
It's a great loss to you.
Glad you know it.
I'm tired from working all morning.
Let's go grab some iced tea.
Miss, please have a tea.
Wow.
It's nice!
Of course. Who am I?
Have you ever thought about how your life would be different if you didn't marry Bai Shao Qi?
I don't think it would be worse than it is now.
You know that I was very afraid of not being able to marry by the time I was 30,
but he proposed to me when I was 29 years old.
I was extremely happy.
I'm thankful to have him in my life.
He is the best gift in the world.
Are you sure?
Of course! I only had 2 boyfriends before.
If I didn't meet Shao Qi,
then I would marry my first boyfriend?
I can't imagine what type of life that would be.
He is so irresponsible.
Why is marriage always an option in your life?
Because this is called "completion."
Your "completion" is very narrow-minded.
My parents were gone a long time ago.
Although I work hard and everyday life is quite alright,
you know that I've always wanted a family.
And?
There's no way I can be as strong as you.
What does that have to do with being strong?
This is a choice.
I know.
It's like your choice in rejecting love.
You like being single and dislike marriage.
You want to be like nuns that work hard and live life.
You here...Who told you that being a nun is an exhausting job?
They maintain the Emei Sect and don't know there are life goals.
I think the most important thing for you to do now is to find some life goals and focus on them.
My life goal is my married life,
and I am very focused on it.
It's only you who is focused on it, right?
Why did you go learn culinary arts, knitting and interior design?
Isn't it to make him happy every time he returns to Taipei?
Shouldn't I have done that?
There is really no "should or shouldn't" in this world.
I just think it should be a bit more fair.
You only care about whether he's happy or not.
Have you thought about yourself?
Are you happy?
You married your husband, but your husband seems to have married his work.
Isn't that right?
Then let me ask you this.
How many days do you see your husband in a year?
Can you not use psychology to analyze my marriage?
The love I have for my husband can't be measured by how many days I see him.
Plus, communication software is so advanced these days,
I can see him whenever I want to.
So we're doing fine, and I'm fine as well.
Alright, alright. It's alright as long as you're fine.
It's okay as long as you're fine. I don't want to have you as another patient.
Eh, next time let's go out and eat. Let's not meet here at my clinic.
It makes me feel like I'm interrogating you every time.
How about...um...
Tomorrow? I have a friend who recommended a restaurant that is quite therapeutic. Let's go eat there.
Sorry! I can't tomorrow.
My husband is coming back from Shanghai tomorrow.
He's coming back to deal with a case,
and he's staying two weeks this time!

Husband!
Did you wait long?
No.
Are you tired?
A little. Yesterday I had a meeting until 2 am in the morning.
That client in Shanghai was really troublesome.
It's okay. Since you're back now, I'll help you recover.
Recover? Recover what?
What are you thinking about? I learned how to make soup.
I've already bought all the ingredients. Once we get home, I'll make it for you immediately.
Okay. In a while, I'll try my wife's cooking.
Wait a moment.
Hello? Yes. I just got off the plane.
You found the director? That fast?
Yes. This firm is our CEO's friend. We need to follow up as best we can.
Okay. I'll go back to the company immediately. See you then. Bye.
Sorry.
It's okay. It wasn't intentional.
I came back especially for this case.
I was hoping that the earlier I finish the details, the earlier I can start my vacation.
I know. I'll drive you to your company,
and then I'll make soup for you when you get home.
Darling, how about you don't cook tonight?
After I finish work, why don't you pick me up,
and we'll eat out.
You married your husband but it seems your husband has married work. Aren't I right?
♫ My dear, you don't have to be sorrow ♫
I think that you
should hurry and find a life goal that you can invest in.
I did.
♫ They will know they're so so wrong ♫
♫ My dear, don't be afraid to be different ♫
♫ Differences make a different world ♫
Is this for your husband?
Yes, I'm knitting a scarf for my husband.
It's well done and the color is nice too.
Thank you.
♫ The only one, and you... ♫
- A gift. - What's this?
♫ ♫
Did you knit it yourself?
Do you like it?
I do. I'll be very warm this winter.
♫ And deserve to be loved ♫
Thank you.
Bye bye.
♫ Differences make a different world ♫
Bye bye.
♫ ... their character ♫
♫ The one and the only one ♫
♫ And you... Just be you ♫
After you've prepared the ingredients, you can slowly put them in the pot.
♫ And you... Just be you ♫
♫ We deserve to love, and deserve to be loved ♫
♫ And you... Just be you ♫
You learned cooking, knitting and interior design for what?
Isn't it all for him to be happy every time he returns to Taipei?
You're only concerned with him being happy. But have you thought about yourself?
Are you happy?
There's a source for all types of loneliness.
It's just that you don't know it.
That's why loneliness is the biggest selling point.
Director, excuse me.
I don't understand what you just said. We're selling apartments.
I know, of course.
The apartments are prosperous. This investor is our CEO"s friend.
He has made a major investment.
The apartments are ready to be sold.
He wants to upgrade our image and make a short film
to advertise.
Directly advertising the product right away,
don't you think that's low?
Directly advertising the product is already out.
Now what people talk about are "feelings."
Loneliness is everyone's common problem.
May I ask if you are lonely? How about all of you?
I believe everyone sitting here
will feel loneliness at one point.
Like how people sell coffee, we sell loneliness.
Think about yourself walking down the street.
You're holding a hot and steamy coffee.
Then you tell yourself, "I'm good."
"I can do it." It's this romantic packaging
that's successful. In the same sense,
we can sell furniture and of course the apartments.
Starting from loneliness and using home as the last point,
every one of these apartments
can fill the void of loneliness.
That's why a good home can heal the void of loneliness.
So in this short film, you're planning to focus on loneliness?
No. Just the opposite.
It must be focused on happiness.
But didn't you just say-
How happy you were when you didn't return home.
The person you are now, how hurt do you feel?
You weren't happy. When you stop and think about it,
that's what loneliness is.
Good.
Good? What's good?
What you said was good.
You've persuaded me. This short film is yours.
Thank you, VP.
- The contract- - I'll finish it immediately.
Then Director, when can you hand in the script?
Um...I haven't completed it yet.
I just said my thoughts.
Okay, but don't think too long. There's a deadline.
Oh right, this firm had a request.
In this short film, you must use his daughter.
Anyone is fine. As long as they're willing to act and go on screen, I'm fine.
Everything else is fine. We're only waiting on your script.
Do you have your own crew?
Yes, I have many juniors under me.
Brother Ding Ya!
I really like your aesthetic! It's really unique!
- Why are you here? - I'm here to style for a commercial.
I heard that you were also here for a meeting. I was debating whether or not to come find you.
I never thought that I'd bump into you.
So you're finished too?
This is... - VP,
this is stylist Gao Ding Ya.
Ding Ya is here as a stylist for our company.
Using his godly hands and with just a couple flicks,
he brings out a forty-year-old lady's classic beauty.
It's really amazing.
Hello, nice to meet you.
Hello, VP.
If you're finished, can you return Xiao Quan back to me?
It's great that I bumped into you. We can leave together.
This... Ding Ya is my very good friend.
Director, everyone knows that he's part of your crew.
Not only that, we also live together.
After I finish the script, I will communicate with you.
Okay.
- Let's go. - Then I'll start the car first, baby.
Baby?
VP, don't misunderstand.
Ding Ya is a very good friend and we live together,
but we're not in that relationship. Don't imagine things.
It's okay, Director. You have many great creations.
You were just able to persuade me. This won't affect the trust I have in you.
That's right, Director. Your professional works are more important to use than your sexual orientation.
Thank you for everyone's trust in me.
Let me clarify again. I'm not in that kind of relationship.
I'll leave first. Thank you.
Jiang Xiao Qian.
♫ Away from Cloud 9 ♫

Hubby, I've reached. You can come down now.
It's him.
How can that be?
Jiang Xiao Qian.
Are you Jiang Xiao Qian? Have you forgotten me?
He Xiao Quan.
Oh my God! It's really you!
How long has it been? 10 years?
Around that.
You've changed a lot. You've become very different.
Like you said, we haven't seen each other for 10 years.
Who looks exactly the same as 10 years ago?
I guess I haven't changed that much in 10 years, right?
I can't remember what you used to look like back then.
Not only have your looks changed, but I find that the way you treat others is different too.
What?
You're a little... proud.
He Xiao Quan, we haven't seen each other in 10 years.
Is there a need to insult me?
I've always been honest.
I've always been. You know this.
Don't tell me you've forgotten me totally?
I don't remember things in the past,
and I do not want to remember. There isn't a need to remember.
Oh. Well, I guess I don't want you to be so angry.
Xiao Qian!
Hey. You know each other?
- We were university mates. - Such a coincidence!
Don't tell me you were classmates.
No, we were not in the same class. We met through clubs.
Oh, that's great! Let's meet up for a meal another day.
Uh, Vice President. Jiang Xiao Qian is...
She is my wife. She didn't tell you just now?
We were busy chatting and I forgot to mention it.
This school mate of yours is really clever.
It's our first meeting today,
and he suggested a very great idea.
Baby! Get in!
I'll get going.
Alright. Thanks!
Let's have a meal next time. I'm serious!
Alright. Bye bye.
Bye bye.
He is really talented, this school mate of yours.
He Xiao Quan is not just my university school mate.
He is still my... First love.
♫ ♫
The feeling of first loves, is impulsive and direct.
There's no other reason. If you like him, you just like him.
♫ ♫
Maybe, it's because of a song.
Or maybe, it's because of the look in his eyes.
♫ I love you! ♫
♫ A, B, C, D, E, F, G ♫
♫ H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P ♫
Or maybe, it's over an umbrella.
♫ Let unexpected things happen ♫
If you like him, it just means you like him.
Miraculously, I realized he likes me too.
We had our small little dreams of being together forever,
and forgot about being young. It was like a stone that hadn't been worn down.
Any corner could've hurt someone.
Quarreling and patching up,
over and over again.
It seemed common among couples
Six... Seven... One... Two... Three...
In the end, to be frank,
I can't remember the reason behind our break up.
I only remember our appointment,
but he did not turn up.
♫ Whatever schemes there are, let's be crazy together ♫
♫ Why get to the point of a showdown? ♫
♫ Why don't we just forget it? ♫
♫ I don't want it, It's not worth it ♫
What's wrong?
Why are you in a daze?
I'm thinking of something.
Are you thinking of that girl? The VP's wife?
You said she was your first love?
Yes.
Then your heart must be filled with regret.
It's filled with a little bit of regret,
but this regret can't be wasted.
I have to use it in my work. The mini-film we talked about today...
I've decided to add in the period of my first love. It fits well.
So you've decided... to use your first love.
That's an exaggeration.
I was a victim, okay?
I'm using my personal experience
and laying it all out in front of the audience.
Looking at how you're talking about it, you must have not loved her.
I did at the time,
but it's been 10 years. If you loved someone for 10 years,
how could you keep that in your heart? You would already have thought of
some way to get her back.
You are right.
So... She is to me...
Just a past. Like a first love.
First love is a fantasy. You think you will be together forever.
But when you grow up and look back,
it's just an impossible story in history.
So you're not in a bad mood?
Gao Ding Ya, what do you want?
No, nothing!
I met a really perfect babe at work.
Tonight,
we're drinking at your office.
What do you think my office is?
Just have her come over.
You know that the landlady's daughter is... You know...
The landlady's daughter is your girlfriend, right?
She's not my girlfriend.
OK. Your girlfriend
is the hair stylist who always carries scissors on her.
Nope. Not. Both of them
self-declared that they're my girlfriend.
Don't look so distressed. You didn't deny it.
I don't know how to say it.
Don't you think some truths really hurt
and are difficult say?
Fact is you'd rather two-time
than clear up your relationships.
They don't know each other. They live in their respective worlds.
It's better since they can't run into each other, right?
Anyway, I need to borrow your office today.
Do you want to drink together? I'll find you a girl.
Not interested.
Hey, please don't say that you are not interested.
You know we are worried.
What are you worried about?
Please stop playing such jokes.
I'm at their office.
I'm not willing too,
but the only people around me at work are tomboys and crazy, ugly women.
The way she looked at me. Electricity was shooting out from her eyes,
and she attacked me.
So tonight...
That's my workplace, and I have work to rush tonight.
Please. I promise I won't disturb you.
No way.
- Please!- No!
- No!- You can carefully edit your script. We'll be quiet.
- NO! - I definitely will not disturb you.
- No way. - Don't you have loyalty?
Nope.
To tell you the truth, no one understands me.
Even though we've worked together, you probably don't know what I'm really like.
Then... What's the real you like?
You wouldn't understand even if I told you.
Sometimes... Even I don't understand myself.
But... there are certain things you don't have to understand.
Are you sure?
This...
I really don't understand what that He Xiao Quan is thinking.
How can he say something so rude?
What do you mean I'm fake?
"You look so different from last time"
Oh please! I'm authentic! My face is real!
Maybe he doesn't mean that.
Then what does he mean?
Maybe he is trying to emphasize that you've matured.
I'm not sure either. But is this important?
It's not important.
But I'm pissed.
What are you pissed about?
I...
Back then, he dumped me!
Dumped you with no reason?
He owes me!
Why is he behaving like a jerk in front of me now?
So that's the reason you broke up?
What?
If you didn't meet again,
this incident, this anger... you would probably keep it in your heart forever.
Anyway, you wouldn't think about it.
You could live peacefully with him.
But since you've met, you have to face him.
Aren't I facing him now?
That's not enough. You need to "fix" him, then you can forget him.
"Fix" him?
What does that mean?
Go look for him.
Look for him?
♫ I just want to be in love, I want to be dazed ♫
♫ Weird spirits please get away from me, Away from Cloud 9 ♫
Go find him.
- Go find him?- Why not?
You're already married. We aren't the teenagers that we used to be.
Be an adult and go find him. Get answers for the questions you had back in the day.
It's no big deal. It's something owed to you, isn't it?
Yes, he owes me an explanation as to why we broke up.
Then go get the reason sorted out and stop sulking.
But where do I find him?
- Good morning. - Good morning.
Woah!
Good morning. These two should be familiar to you.
- Good morning to both of you. - Hello boyfriend!
That can't be. Ding Ya is my boyfriend.
Isn't it right, Ding Ya?
How could it be so coincidental?
Why are all of you here together?
Because Zhen Ni Hua is our friend.
Oh. Wow. The world is really small.
So you all knew each other? Then in that case...
Er... Wait a while. I'll go wash up.
You never thought that such a day would come, did you?
All three of us appearing in front of you together.
We had both already guessed you were cheating.
Who would have thought you'd be so stupid to have done it with my guest Zhen Ni Hua?
Let's just talk over everything now while we're at it.
Er... Alright, so what do you want?
SAY IT! Among the three of us, who do you like?
Hey, hey, hey! This is too dramatic!
Okay, I get that you're a hair stylist and you really love your job.
But can you put the tool you making a living with down first? Calm down...
Calm down? We've been tolerating it for so long!
And we've been calm for too long!
-He Xiao Quan! He Xiao Quan! -Hey! Gao Ding Ya, where are you going?
He Xiao Quan!
Gao Ding Ya!
- What's going on?- Going to your friend is no use. You have to give us an answer today or else we won't let it go!
Hey, hey, hey!
Tell us! Clarify things now!
Alright! I'll talk!
Actually, I have a secret I can't say.
It's obvious you are lying.
Really!
The reason why I would put so much effort into relationships with you and can't commit is because
I'm actually like you guys.
What?
I'm also a woman.
That's right. I admit.
I admit it bravely.
Xiao Quan, you admit it too, right?
Admit to what?
Admit to our relationship!
- What relationship do we have?- I love you! And you love me!
Stop pretending.
I don't want to force myself to like girls.
No... This...
I've let the three of you down,
but I'm really not a cheater. I'm gay.
Lying to myself,
lying to the whole world.
- Wait a moment - Why are you such a coward?
Do you think we will really believe you?
