This little brat!
Did you see his father's behavior? How can he match up to our family?
You all look down on my son. Well, I look down on all of you, too!
1989: Li Jin Qin changes.
I am already 22 years old, why can't I decide for myself?!
From now on, you can't leave this house.
Mom's life is walking towards the direction of unhappiness...
1989 is a very significant year.
I don't know if these changes were bound to happen anyway.
I admit that I've liked you for a long time.
Or is this the outcome of what I have done?
I don't like you.
But, if it's related to Ye Zhen Zhen,
I can't sit back and not care...
I know that Guo Sheng Tai will be a wanted criminal because I am from 2016.
Stop lying!
What are you doing?
This is called a phone. This suit can also explain why.
In 1989, I am haven't been born yet.
To be honest, I know very well how many suits I've made.
Maybe I was mistaken then.
I will trust you, and one day I hope you will trust me, too.
If you didn't come from the future...
if these problems didn't exist between us...
would you like me?
That's good.
What's good?
That means I'm not the problem.
How are you good?
How am I not good? You definitely like me.
You couldn't lie to me. That's why you told me the truth, right?
You surely like me. I'm not just imagining it, right?
Don't get ahead of yourself. Go look in the mirror. Crying and laughing at the same time...
It's your fault, you know.
That must be Xiao Long. I'll go get it.
If I had the choice, I'd wish that there was no 2016.
And that I could really become the Chen Che living in 1989.
Hello? Hello? Zhen Zhen, why are you still at home?
I...
Sorry, Xiao Long.
I'm not going.
Why?
Nothing, it's just because...
Because...
Why does your voice sound weird? Did you cry?
That's not it.
I just have a stuffy nose.
How did that happen so suddenly? Weren't you well before?
Do you want me to take you to the doctor's?
No need! I can just drink ginger soup and sleep.
Uh, Xiao Long, that Mr. Guo...
If I told Xiao Long that Guo Sheng Tai will become a wanted criminal, he'd never believe it.
Uh, hello? I didn't hear you well. The signal isn't good.
It's nothing, just be careful.
Just remember your promise to me. Don't get too drunk even if you're with clients.
Otherwise, I won't care about you. Bye-bye.
Oh.
What happened? Ye Zhen Zhen isn't coming?
She suddenly became sick, I don't know if it's bad or not.
Brother Guo, should I buy medicine and fruits?
Lin Xiao Long, why are you so naive?
Your unplanned actions may cause the other to be slightly touched,
but you can't let the other person set down her mind to follow you for life.
Then... then what should I do?
The money in your pocket.
The money in your pocket is like a magnet.
No matter what, you can always attract women with money.
It's okay.
No woman will ever reject a rich man.
Let's go. I'll help you meet new people.
Let's go.
How is that possible?
I, Ye Zhen Zhen, have been living for the past twenty-two years.
I haven't even seen a ghost yet, but now I have met
someone from the future!?
Don't tell me that my future husband
is someone who has come from the future?
But if Chen Che is from the future,
then he should be returning to the future soon.
However, he might be my husband in the future...
Can't be!
Don't forget that when you were peeling the apple in front of the mirror before,
the future husband that you saw was obviously Chen Che!
That's right...
Who knows? He might have used this as an excuse to reject you.
We're not filming a sci-fi movie. How can someone travel through time?
That's right...
Then what about the evidence he showed you?
And how about the phone that can take pictures? How do you explain that?
That's right! How do you explain this?!
You are very stupid! Maybe it is just like the high-tech weapons that 007 uses.
The phone was developed secretly overseas, it's just that we haven't heard about it yet.
Fine! How about those really accurate predictions of the future?
If Chen Che is not from the future, how would he know these things with such certainty?
You must believe that he won't lie!
What do you say?
Aiya, I don't know! I don't know! How did this happen?
Aiyo! I'm going to die!
It's so unbelievable!
Sister, are you sleeping?
What?
Sorry, can you open the door?
What?
Uh, can I borrow the pen that you got from your teacher?
No, you can't!
Please!
Teacher said that if I write my essay neatly, there will be additional points.
It is rare that your brother is so motivated with his studies, why are you being so petty?
I'm petty?! Last time, you used the celebrity cards that I have collected as your bookmarks.
You bent the cards in the process and I have yet to punish you for that! How dare you call me petty?
They were bent by Mom's butt!
Your card was bent, but my fantasy story book was damaged, too!
You are a student retaking your exam, why are you reading fantasy story books?!
Fantasy story book?
Brother...
What?
First, answer these questions, then I will lend this pen to you.
So there were conditions. Say it.
Do you think that people can travel through time?
Of course!
Don't you know that time travel is a popular story line in the Wisely series?(Chinese sci-fi novels written by the novelist Ni Kuang)
In one of the novels, we are already talking about robots from the future.
These robots treat humans like pets.
There is also another series that talks about time travel for humans from the year 2064 to the year 1964.
Wait, wait, wait! These things are all from science fiction books? You believe them?
Ah, let me tell you. There are many mysterious forces in the world that humans have yet to understand.
It may be a collision of the planets or the reversal of the universe,
or even finding connecting tunnels between different worlds.
All these are capable of changing time!
Enough, enough! I don't understand what you are saying...
Anyway, do you think that it is possible to return to the future?
Of course it is possible!
Just like how the ancient people should have never predicted that there would be planes in the future,
so it is not impossible to travel through time.
And my classmate told me that when he was in the U.S. for the holidays,
he saw "Back to the Future 2" posters.
And this was traveling to the future 2015.
2015!?
Right, if you can go to the past,
then you can also go to the future!
Smart!
Maybe I could also go to 2016!
What 2016? I said 2015!
That's not important... hurry up and go study.
Good night.
Where's my pen?
If I can find out the way to time travel, then won't our problem be solved?
- Hey, Chen Che!- Ye Zhen Zhen—
That's weird... why is Ye Zhen Zhen going into Chen Che's room this late at night?
Oh! Are these two secretly dating?
If you can come back to 1989, then I can also go to 2016 with you!
Guo An said that there's many ways to time travel, so which one did you use?
How are you going to go back?
And, and, if you're going to go back, can you give me a heads up beforehand?
That way, I can tell my dad and my mom—
Hold on, Ye Zhen Zhen. It's impossible to take you with me to 2016.
Why not? Didn't you come back using a time travel machine?
What time travel machine?
I came to this time period because of some freak accident.
I don't even know how to go back home.
You... still don't know how to go back home?
Then... is it possible that you will stay here?
I...
Stop imagining things. Go to bed.
Hey! I still haven't said everything yet! I still have a couple of questions to ask you.
- Good night, good night.- Chen Che...
Ye Zhen Zhen, let me tell you this,
I hope that you can help me protect this secret.
Don't worry.
I will definitely protect you and not let anyone perform weird experiments on you.
Good night!
Timing and subtitles brought to youby The Lovers From The Past @ Viki
Hey, Chen Che, what was your job in 2016?
Were you also a salesperson?
It was something similar, but more difficult.
Then, is it like what you're doing now?
Not really. A financial consultant's job is more complex.
Oh, that's right, in the future everyone can see stocks using their phones and computers.
- What?- Hey, Ye Zhen Zhen!
Watch the road when you drive!
But I heard from Guo An that Ni Kuang's books said
that the future will be controlled by robots.
People are even being treated as pets!
No way, if it continues like this, then
is it possible that it will really be like that?
If my dad's skill is being replaced by a machine, wouldn't that be such a great loss?
Ye Zhen Zhen, didn't you promise me yesterday that you would protect my secret?
In the future, please don't say these things in public.
Oh. Okay, I got it.
What can't you talk about in public?
Whoa!
What do you think? Do I look good?
You do look pretty cool.
Is your cold better?
It's almost gone.
- Here, take this.- What is it?
It's some cold medicine, and I also bought you some fruits.
I also got you the Wang Ma Guangdong porridge that you always eat.
Xiao Long, thanks a lot! But my cold's almost gone now.
Really? Let me see.
This looks heavy, let me carry it
Ye Zhen Zhen, let's go to work.
Let's go to work.
Whoa!
Lin Xiao Long, you're looking more and more like a stockbroker!
This suit must have costed thousands.
What do you mean by thousands? I spent a few ten thousand dollars for this.
That much?! Oh my God, we can't touch it.
Don't touch it.
But since we frequently eat with bosses,
it's a must to wear something like this.
Yes, you're right.
In addition, you know what else is important for people in this line of work?
What?
- Connections.- Ah! You're right.
- I'll introduce you to some when there's an opportunity. - Yes, yes, yes.
Brother Long! Then, please take care of us in the future, Brother Long.
That's right! Please also pass along some of your secrets to success to us as well.
What a complete change! Didn't someone say that they'd support Brother Che forever?
You'll get used to these weeds in the future, Lin Xiao Long.
Everyone's so happy!
Actually, our office can take part in love events, right?
Right, right, right!
It's time to work right now!
- Oh! Work!- You crazies!
- Ye Zhen Zhen!- Yes, Manager!
Chen Ya Juan has already missed three days of work.
Do you know what's going on with her?
I called her house, but her mom always picks up the phone.
She always says that something's going on at home, and then asks for the day off.
Whatever. Please tell her that if she wants to ask for time off to please do so according to company policy.
If she continues to take leave like this, even I can't protect her.
Manager.
Let me deal with this. Before Ya Juan comes back to work, I can take on her load as well.
If Super Broker Chen is willing to help, then I'll be at peace.
I'll leave this in your hands.
Zhen Zhen! Zhen Zhen!
Ya Juan's under lock-down, she can't even leave her own house.
Plus, Jin Qin goes to her house every day to wait for her,
but Auntie isn't letting them meet at all.
Those two are the living embodiment of Romeo and Juliet.
They're in love, but have to be separated.
Let's go to Ya Juan's house today after work.
I think I might have a way to make Ya Juan come back to work.
Then, I'll—
Hold on a moment.
Hello?
No, of course not, I'll be there on time.
Okay, I understand.
Bye-bye.
It's that Guo Sheng Tai, right?
I'm advising you to stop working with him.
This is a matter between me and my client, it doesn't concern you.
Why don't you think of ways to help Ya Juan instead?
- Please have some tea.- Thank you, Auntie.
Auntie... all of us are worried about Ya Juan.
Manager said that... Ya Juan can't keep asking off of work.
Then she'll resign. We've already discussed this.
Ya Juan's academic performance was very good,
she'll probably be able to receive an enrollment notification from the school in February or March.
As for the tuition, I've already done some investments and they're enough for her to study abroad.
There's absolutely no need for her to cut into her study time just to earn a small salary.
We really respect how Auntie wants the best for Ya Juan.
However, I'm worried that Ya Juan's sudden resignation
will affect her chances when she goes to the U.S.
What disturbance would it cause?
Ya Juan didn't ask off of work according to the company policies, which is considered as a "no show."
If she leaves her position empty for too long, the company will automatically fire her.
If this shows up on Ya Juan's record,
it will affect her chances of being accepted into schools.
That's why, I think the best method to approach this
is to let Ya Juan first come back to work, then officially hand in her resignation.
Once she completes all of her duties,
then she can resign. What does Auntie think?
In that case, why don't you go back to work first?
However, you must remember, you have to hurry up and resign after you go back to work.
- Understand?- Yes.
I got it.
You persuaded someone as stubborn as Ya Juan's mom!
You're really good.
But... she still doesn't accept Jin Qin. The two of them will still continue to clash.
For those who are forced to be separated,
it's up to us to create some opportunities for them.
You said that you lived near Ya Juan, did you know Ya Juan in 2016?
- We know each other. In addition, we live under the same roof.- What?!
♫ Baby, I missed you so tonight ♫
♫ I still miss your love ♫
♫ This time I admit that I failed ♫♫ Come back to my love ♫
♫ Love me, love me as I am ♫
♫ I'm just another man ♫
♫ Because we are friends ♫
You said that you lived near Ya Juan, did you already know her in 2016?
- Yes, we even live under the same roof. - What?!
You're lying to me, right?
I won't be fooled that easily.
Then when you said that you didn't have a girlfriend, was that also a lie?
Of course, my specs are very good.
So you do have a girlfriend!
That's right. Furthermore, I'm dating multiple girls at once.
How many girls are you cheating on?!
It's called an affair, however, I'm not a playboy.
In 2016, there's no such thing as monogamy.
Each person can have multiple partners.
What?
There's more than just these. Let me tell you.
Every car on the road
is self driven.
Humans can communicate via telepathy with each other.
Also, Portal Gate and Bamboo-copter have both been made.
But aren't these gadgets from Doraemon?
You're lying again!
You are really strange! Why are you always teasing me?
Hey, Ye Zhen Zhen! Do you have Li Jin Qin's beeper number?
No!
I have to let him know that Ya Juan is going back to work so that they can meet in the office.
Think of a way yourself.
Okay. I'll go ask Ya Juan then.
Hey! Are you trying to get Ya Juan into trouble?
I'll copy the numbers for you later, okay?
If only it was 2016's Nicky Wu who had traveled back in time.(Member of the iconic band The Little Tigers)
- Are you talking about your future husband? - Yes.
In 2016, he no longer sings, and has become an actor.
Everyone calls him "Fourth Prince." (His role famous role in the popular drama "Scarlet Heart")
Fourth Prince? What is this weird name?
You don't believe me?
Then tell me.
We're... back.
What happened?
You two... sit.
I have something to ask you.
Okay.
Are you two... dating already?
- No! - No!
No?
Ye Guo An said that you went into Chen Che's room last night
and didn't come out for a long time! Is this true?
Ye Guo An!
Ah, I'm just stating what I saw.
Hey, Ye Zhen Zhen, who knew that you would be so brave?
I really admire you.
What were you guys doing in that room?
- I was teaching her English. - We were discussing his blind date.
- And then we discussed my blind date. - And then he taught me English.
You two weren't
doing what you shouldn't have been doing in that room, right?
I admit that
Ye Zhen Zhen and I seem ambiguous.
Very ambiguous!
But, you have really misunderstood us.
I really don't have that kind of a relationship with her.
Chen Che, you've lived in our house for a while.
We know that you are a very good child. Uncle Ye and I are very open.
We are very happy that you guys are together.
So, you don't have to worry.
But... you also can't lie to us.
However, we still have to go by the rules and proceed step by step.
What I admire the most is integrity.
Ye Zhen Zhen just graduated from college.
You have to date for two years before getting engaged.
After being engaged for one year, you can marry.
By that time, Zhen Zhen will be 25 or 26 years old.
At this time, it will be perfect to have a child.
Any older, and you won't be able to have kids.
Mom! I beg you guys, please stop spouting nonsense.
The main point is, I'm warning you.
Before you guys marry, it should be a simple love life.
Especially you, I am warning you.
If you dare to mistreat my daughter, I will break your leg!
Dad, stop talking nonsense!
Aiya, Zhen Zhen. Mom is currently going through menopause.
During the night, your dad keeps snoring, so I can't sleep well.
I think from tonight on, Mom will sleep with you.
Mom, I think that you're just afraid that Ye Zhen Zhen and Brother Che will do that.
Ye Guo An! I will remember this!
Oh, thank you.
Help me open it, thank you.
Really sorry, but the speed...
Especially, be healthy.
Actually, Chen Che is a pretty honest guy.
He wouldn't use his knowledge of the future to do bad things.
You are really amazing, Xiao Long!
Lin Xiao Long, why don't you make noise when you walk?
I should be the one asking why you're daydreaming in the middle of the hallway.
It's nothing.
I'm only thinking that hardworking men are charismatic.
Is she talking about me?
Thank you.
Hello? I'd like to order takeout.
This is the data from the past few days. I helped you fill it in.
- There shouldn't be any errors. - Thank you.
Li Jin Qin's here.
Why are you here?
I came to bring you a lunchbox.
Wow!
But, I still need to work for a while longer.
Just give those to me.
But there's a lot of work to organize from the days that I took off.
Even if you are busy, you still need to eat. Chen Che and I are here.
Don't worry and just go eat your lovely lunch.
Then I'll have to trouble you guys.
Go, go.
I'm so envious of Ya Juan.
She has a boyfriend that brings her a lovely lunch.
What's there to be envious about?
How is this something to be envious about? If after two or three years your boyfriend still has the time to bring you lunch,
then you won't even be able to smile.
Such a romantic thing... why wouldn't you smile?
At this time period, men are busy fighting for their careers.
If they still have the time to bring lovely lunches,
it's either because they're getting old, or it's because they don't even have a job.
Ye Zhen Zhen, disillusionment is the start of maturity.
You should learn to mature.
Hi, this is your takeout.
- May I ask if... - Is it Miss Hu Li Jing?
Here.
Do you see this? Capable men use money.
No. Mr. Lin Xiao Long ordered this.
Lin Xiao Long?
Me! Me! Me!
Hello.
I'm going to go pour a cup of water.
Hey, I'll go with you.
Wow! If it's a man with capabilities, you're talking about Lin Xiao Long!
Whoa, you actually earned so much money!
Even your lunch became higher class. Can we eat with you?
I specially prepared this for Ye Zhen Zhen.
Me?
When you were sick, I couldn't buy it. This time, I asked the restaurant to give you a special order
Wait!
Dry fried shrimp.
Roasted chicken!
Braised abalone!
You really have a dog's nose!
- I asked Manager for the VIP room, let's go eat together. - Okay!
But I have to help Ya Juan pick up phone calls now. I'll eat later.
- I can eat it! - Me! I can eat it!
I can answer the phone. If you want to eat, go.
Since Chen Che said that, let's quickly go eat!
I'm going to stay here to help.
Xiao Long, you can go eat first.
Brother Long, lunch is not tasty when it gets cold.
- We'll help you eat it— - I want Ye Zhen Zhen to eat with me!
Excuse me.
Wan Ling.
Is it necessary to go to Ya Juan's office?
Isn't this going to embarrass her?
What is there to be embarrassed about?
I am her mother. I'm taking her lunch.
If I don't go, how would I know if she secretly met with Li Jin Qin?
Do you have to control Ya Juan this tightly?
Soon, she will go to America.
Let's just leave it for time to decide, okay?
Only negative people will allow time to decide.
We are parents, we have a responsibility to protect our kids.
We have to lead them down the right path.
If you don't want to be the bad guy and have your daughter hate you,
that's alright, I will do it.
This is not what I mean. I just don't want us to
interfere with her and make her sad.
Even if Ya Juan keeps blaming me,
as long as her life in the future if blissful,
then it is worth it.
Wan Ling. Wan Ling!
Wan Ling!
This is what we loved to eat before when we were studying, from that buffet place.
The auntie from the restaurant still remembers you and picked the largest piece of ribs especially for you.
Are you... are you doing okay?
I am sorry that you witnessed such an embarrassing scene the other day.
My dad really isn't a bad person.
He just really cares about me, so he was acting on impulse.
When my mom and I were leaving that day,
I did see Uncle hit you.
Does your face still hurt?
It's fine. I'm used to it. It's fine.
Does your dad hit you a lot?
It's all for my own good. Don't blame him for it.
My dad doesn't know too many words, nor does he know how to teach through love.
He only knows "spare the rod, spoil the child." So whenever I did anything wrong,
he would always hit me without asking why I did it first, leaving talk for later.
So, is this why you hardly ever mention your family?
This is just one of the reasons.
I… am a child without a mother.
When I was in elementary school, my mom became sick.
In order to treat my mom's illness, we ended up in a lot of debt.
But in the end, my mom still couldn't be saved.
In order to pay off the debt and let me go to school,
my dad worked several jobs a day.
After delivering newspapers in the morning, he would then go carry bricks at a construction site.
In order to earn a bit more money, my dad often worked until his shoulders were swollen.
Often times, he would come home so tired that he would fall asleep once he sat down.
My dad's biggest wish is that I can study well,
so I can succeed and not be like him.
So even if my dad is aggressive
and strict with me, I don't hate him.
Because I know that everything he has done is for me.
We are very alike.
In fact, my mom is the same as your dad.
What other secrets haven't you told me?
These are the marks left from when I did wrong things when I was young.
Our family was very poor in the past, so I'd never had chocolate before.
One day, I saw the older boys in the neighborhood eating some.
I really wanted to know what it tasted like, so I went and stole a piece.
My dad found out later. He was so angry that he slapped me right away.
I wasn't standing steadily, so I hit the thermos on the table and was burned to this extent.
Since then, this scar has become a mark warning me to not do wrong things.
So is that why you hardly ever let others see this?
In order to not let others know,
I often pretend to be very strong and confident.
But right now, you know all about it.
I really am very, very happy
that you're willing to tell me this. I like knowing all of your secrets.
Starting from today, you are my accomplice.
The food is getting cold. Hurry and eat it.
Hello. This is Lin Xiao Long. How are you?
Hello?
Hello? Can you hear me?
I'm sorry. The signal here isn't very clear. Please wait a second.
Hello? Hello? Is it okay now?
Please wait a second.
Miss, how are you? I'm looking for Chen Ya Juan. I'm her mom.
Oh, Ya Juan—
- Went to go see a client! - Went to go see a client.
Auntie, Uncle, how are you guys?
Zhen Zhen, why are you guys so nervous?

Miss, how are you? I'm looking for Chen Ya Juan. I'm her mom.
Oh, Ya Juan—
- Went to go see a client! - Went to go see a client.
Auntie, Uncle, how are you guys?
Zhen Zhen, why are you guys so nervous?
It's nothing.
Okay, I know. It's not a problem. Thank you.
Hey, Xiao Long!
Hello, Auntie. Hello, Uncle Chen.
You guys are all here. Only Ya Juan had to go out?
Dad, Mom. Why are you guys here?
To bring you lunch.
And to help you mention to your manager about resigning while we're at it. Where is the manager's office?
You'll have to resign sooner or later anyway.
If you mention it earlier, you won't create problems for the company. Take me there quickly.
Professor Chen.
Hey, come sit.
When Wan Ling and I went to your workplace today,
Ya Juan didn't go out by herself, right?
I can guess just from your expressions.
But she really does like Jin Qin.
You can't just interfere with history as you please!
Wait a second.
Will Li Jin Qin and Xiao Juan have a future?
You're not talking now because...?
Don't worry about the butterfly effect right now. Just tell me quickly, okay?
I...
don't know who my
dad is.
You don't know who your dad is?
How is this possible?
Tell me clearly. Other than having you as a son in 2016,
who else is with her? What type of life is she living?
Actually, in 2016, Ya Juan
isn't living well.
So up until now, regarding to who my biological father is,
I still haven't found definite evidence.
Have you ever thought about what if your dad
isn't Li Jin Qin?
I'm saying "if." If your dad isn't Li Jin Qin...
and if they're really together now,
there's a large chance that you will disappear and not be in existence as a result.
The person named Li Jin Qin definitely exists. Tell me who he is.
- Otherwise tell me who my dad is. - I don't want to mention this person!
If you are going to keep asking me this question today, don't treat me as your mom! Don't see me from now on!
Indeed, there is a chance that Jin Qin isn't my dad.
Because I have asthma, and he doesn't.
But, I'm certain about how unhappy my mom is.
I'm certain of how important Jin Qin's existence is to her.
If her depression is from your interference,
if she can be happy by being with the one she loves, then even if Jin Qin isn't my dad,
even if I disappear, it doesn't matter.
How can you be so swayed by your emotions?
Do you know that you'll have to pay the price for any little bit of change now?
If I can let my mom find her smile and happiness again,
it's worth it even at such a high cost.
Of course I don't want Xiao Juan's future to be as unhappy as in the photograph.
But the future isn't something that can be changed as you wish.
Listen, you guys. Christmas is here.
Listen you guys. It's the sound of Christmas.
I want to go. I want to go.
I want to go.
Grandpa.
A person's life is only a few decades long.
When you're young, you're ignorant.
After growing up,
I finally understood little by little how hard it is to live happily and freely.
I hope that you can cherish the happiness that you have now.
Take care of yourself well. Spend some time with your family.
Dad.
Are you reading?
Do you have some time to chat with your dad?
Last time, you had an argument with your mom over Jin Qin's dad.
You said that you're going to the U.S. to study in order to get away from your mom.
Did you mean what you said?
It's not your mom who told me to come here.
I just wanted to clarify what you're really thinking.
If you say that going to the U.S. to study is your dream,
Dad will send you abroad very willingly.
What's most important is what you're thinking.
Dad, can I not go to the U.S.?
Actually, Jin Qin also wants to go to the U.S. like me to further his studies.
But because of his current situation,
he can only finish graduate school in the country.
But he says that when he goes for his PhD,
he'll apply for scholarships or take the test for a government scholarship.
If I can, I want to go with him then.
Are you and Li Jin Qin serious?
Yes.
Then... what stage are you guys at?
We're... just a step closer than ordinary friends.
Oh...
Dad isn't a perfectionist.
Before young people get married,
it's fine to make some friends and date a little.
But, you have to know your limits when dating.
Girls must know especially. You have to know how to protect yourself.
Do you understand what Dad is saying?
I understand.
Dad, about going to the U.S., can you help me persuade mom?
Even if it's just a year later, that's fine.
Dad will try.
But I can't guarantee that I can convince your mom.
- Is it Li Jin Qin? - Yeah.
But since Mom is here, I can't call him back.
Wan Ling, I have something at the lab that I need Xiao Juan to do for me.
We'll go out for now.
Hey, we're about to have dinner.
You eat first.
We'll come back a little bit later. Okay?
Dad.
I'm sorry about having you lie.
You're my daughter.
You're grown up and sensible now.
Dad knows that you can tell what's right from what's wrong.
I'm only respecting your choice.
Thanks, Dad!
Let's go quickly.
Hello, Uncle Chen!
Hello.
I'll wait for you at the lab.
- Let's go back together and not let your mom find out that the two of us worked together to deceive her. - Okay!
Thanks, Dad!
Go ahead! Don't delay.
Your mom is still waiting for us to go back for dinner.
Thank you, Uncle Chen!
It seems that it's not only Chen Che, but also me, who is going along with the change unconsciously.
If this continues, the situation might get harder and harder to control.
I have to think of ways to send Chen Che back to 2016 sooner.
♫ Love me, love me as I am ♫
♫ I'm just another man ♫

So afterwards, did your mom really help you resign?
Sometimes I really wish I had a pair of wings
so that I could fly very far. Not having to listen to anything, or see anything.
Why would that be a problem?
As long as you want to fly, you can.
Do you not trust me?
Wait for me here.
Li Jin Qin, where are you going?
Wait for me!
Where are you going?
Chen Ya Juan! I'm over here!
What are you doing up there?
Folding a paper airplane.
Paper airplane?
Didn't you say you wanted to fly really high and far and throw everything aside?
I heard that as long as you write your wish on a paper airplane and launch it, it will definitely come true.
Hey, Chen Ya Juan. You have to catch it well.
Your name is on it.
If someone else picks it up, your secrets will be revealed!
Wait, don't throw it!
Don't throw it!
♫ You let me become unbelievably strong ♫
♫ Staying next to you for my whole life ♫
Don't throw any more!
♫ I believe that ♫
♫ your small dreams have bigger powers ♫
♫ You can fly towards your dream ♫
Chen Ya Juan! Last one!
Enough!
♫ I know your small love can change the world ♫
♫ We'll accompany each other to fly towards our heart ♫
♫ I believe that your small dreams have bigger powers ♫
[I like Chen Juan.]
♫ Flying towards each others' heart ♫
Who's Chen Juan?
You like a person named Chen Juan?
What?
Where's my "Ya"?
Don't look for it!
Don't look for it.
No. There can't be a missing word.
It doesn't matter.
Where's my "Ya"?
That's weird.
- Where did it go? - Don't look for it.
Don't look for it.
If you like someone named Chen Juan,
then it's okay if my name's Chen Juan.
No matter what the name of the person you like is,
I just want to be that person who's in your heart your whole life.
In this life of mine, I will only love Chen Ya Juan.
Jin Qin, it's almost time for me to go.
My dad's waiting for me.
That's enough. I really should go back now.
Otherwise my mom will be suspicious.
I'm scared.
I'm really scared.
Every time I leave you,
I'm afraid that I won't ever see you again.
Although there is resistance to our love,
you have to trust me.
It's not that I don't trust you.
I'm just scared that fate's strength is too much.
Although fate's strength is very great,
our love can be a miracle.
♫ I thought parting would be fierce ♫
♫ I thought we would scream and shout ♫
♫ Without feelings, exhuasted ♫
♫ I only realizes then, that the most painful feeling ♫
♫ is not being able to redeem myself ♫
♫ The weakness you left behind was for the courage to walk away ♫
I love you.
♫ It's me who's too immature ♫
♫ He gave you more than I did ♫
♫ Even if the ground is full of my heart's broken pieces ♫
♫ I still beg you not to pick them up ♫
Zhong En, here. Drink some tea.
Thank you, Auntie.
Ya Juan went the university with her dad.
She should be back soon.
Here, sit.
It's okay, it's nothing much anyway.
I just wanted to tell her that my family has decided to immigrate.
Who knows? Maybe we'll meet again in the States.
Your family is going to immigrate?
Yes, my parents have relatives doing business in Southern California.
They wish for us to go over and help them out.
We'll go next year.
What a coincidence.
It just so happens that the school Ya Juan applied to is also on the west coast.
Are you planning on continuing school when you're in the States?
Yeah. My parents and I talked about it.
I'll apply once we've settled down.
Young people with the thought to improve are the best.
If the school Ya Juan applied to is in the same city as yours,
please take care of Ya Juan.
Of course. In a foreign land, not knowing the place or the people,
it's best to have someone you know around.
If Ya Juan is willing,
maybe she could come stay with my family.
In that case, I'll have to thank you on behalf of her.
No problem.
Among her group of college friends, you are the most responsible.
But Ya Juan is bad at picking boyfriends.
If Auntie had two daughters,
I'd definitely consider marrying one of them off to you.
Auntie will go prepare some dim sum.
Stay here to eat dinner.
Auntie, you don't have to go to the trouble.
It's no problem. Stay seated.
Thank you, Auntie.
December 8, 1989. The weather is clear.
Regarding that "future person" that I like... he's told me a lot about future things.
Timing and subtitles brought to youby The Lovers From The Past @ Viki
What do you want?
If you were not from the future,
would you like me?
If these problems between us didn't exist,
would you like me?
♫ Why don't you turn your head around ♫
♫ and let me face the problem by myself? ♫
♫ You tried not to reveal anything ♫
♫ To tell me the logic in love ♫
♫ You continue to work hard for what it's worth ♫
♫ It's the distance between the two of us ♫
♫ Oh, this season ♫
♫ There's finally something worth remembering ♫
♫ Today is what date again? ♫
♫ It's currently raining outside ♫
♫ Bringing some longing frequency ♫
♫ Tonight I missed you so much ♫
♫ Love me, love me as I am ♫
♫ I'm just another man ♫
♫ Because we are friends ♫
Ye Zhen Zhen, what are you doing?
I just wanted to tell you that, regardless of whether it's 1989 or 2016,
I, Ye Zhen Zhen, like Chen Che, and that will never change.
Maybe I wasn't clear enough before.
I will leave someday.
Nothing can happen between us.
Well, what if we found a way to time travel?
I can go back with you.
If that's not possible, you can just stay here.
Why can't we be together?
Chen Che, I like you.
Don't you understand?
I can't not like you.
Even if it's like this, you can't go to 2016 with me.
Did you think it would be as easy as sitting in an airplane and leaving the country to go on vacation?
If you go and don't come back,
what do you want your family members to do?
I'll be able to see them in 2016.
If you disappear from their life for twenty years,
how do you think they'd be living?
We can't be that selfish.
Sleep early. Good night.
I'm sorry. I'm conflicted, too.
But I really don't know what will happen next.
My mom should become pregnant with me soon.
Is it possible for there to be two of me at the same time?
Jin Qin.
Chen Che.
Thank you for helping Ya Juan and me.
Without you, who knows when we'd be able to see each other?
So... you urgently called me just to thank me?
You caught me.
Actually, I need you to help me with one more thing.
I might as well be a good person 'til the end. Say it.
To be honest, secretly going out with Ya Juan can't last forever.
And...yesterday, we...
You two...?
Oh, my relationship with Ya Juan became closer.
I believe in our hearts that we will last forever together.
Did they already...?
What's with your expression?
Ya Juan is counted as my girlfriend.
Even though there are many problems we have to face,
I still want to give her a happy life.
Then how do you want me to help you?
I want to give her a surprise at Old Brother's.
Can you help me to get her to come?
That's not a problem.
You're a true friend!
Then, I will go first to prepare.
Then please invite Ya Juan for me!
See you later. Bye!
If Jin Qin is my dad,
then, how did they separate?
♫ Love me ♫
I was born in August of 1990. ♫ love me as I am ♫
Was I possibly a premature baby?
Mom will get pregnant soon. ♫ I'm just another man ♫
I specially reserved a restaurant for Christmas!
Everyone is invited! We can play together!
Uncle's reminder of Christmas Day, what was it?
There is a possibility for you to return to 2016.
Chen Che's going back to 2016 already?
If you're going back to 2016, then I'm going with you.
Even with a distance of 27 years, two people can be this close.
Alien Huang - Two People
♫ How sincere is the acting ♫
♫ when a nonsensical play is broadcasted? ♫
♫ I love you. Who do you love? ♫
♫ Isn't this like a tragedy trying to make people laugh? ♫
♫ Who wrote the script? ♫
♫ What kind of absurd life is this? ♫
♫ You turned around into his embrace. ♫
♫ There is only me left alone. ♫
♫ Why is it that these two imperfect people ♫
♫ work hard to make the other shine brighter? ♫
♫ The kiss we had when we were acting was really cruel ♫
♫ Everyone else can be serious, but I can't ♫
♫ She couldn't act out the next scene ♫
♫ so the scene is missing the female lead ♫
♫ The beauty of the behind-the-stage scene, the past, and the process ♫
♫ I can't forget them even after the play has ended ♫
