[With You]
Geng Geng!
Success or failure all depends on this.
You'll call me again tomorrow, right?
Hand it over.
I'm worried about Yu Huai.
If I were you, I wouldn't be able to sleep.
First place is not possible?
Did you want to see me crying like a coward?
Did I disappoint you?
You're being a coward.
Do you know who you should feel bad for?
It's Geng Geng.
You're not talented.
Give up.
I'm really... really tired.
After we finish the test, let's go back to school together to see the answers.
Pinky promise!
Has Yu Huai come yet?
He was here really early.
He was here looking through the answers just now.
But he didn't say he was leaving.
We're done!

Latest news.
There was a dark horse in the 2015 13th annual photography competition
for the Qing Liang Cup.
Young photographer Geng Geng
won with her work "Sisters"
beating over 300 famous photographers and over 2000 entries
for the top prize.
Geng Geng.
Where are the cover photos that I took?
Why did it become this huge face?
We couldn't use the ones you took.
When I proposed it, you said it was creative.
This face has so much plastic surgery that
you couldn't even have created it with Photoshop!
How can you put it on our magazine cover?
Isn't that what you said?
Geng Geng! What is wrong with you?
Do you not want your job anymore?
She's a famous celebrity.
Let's not embarrass her.
Fine. You're right.
I've wanted to quit for a long time!
I really am resigning.
Wait! Hey! Hey!
Marry me.
You're here to cause trouble too?
Was it a surprise?
So annoying.
If you think it's not romantic enough, I'll propose again.
[Episode 29: It's been so many years. You still can't forget him?]
Why did you suddenly think to drag me out for a drink?
Congratulate me.
Congratulate you on what?
I've lost my job again.
Do you remember when you first quit your job as a functionary?
I thought you were so sexy then.
So in a moment of impulse, I...
Starting that day
I've proposed to you 56 times.
You weren't moved even once?
It hasn't been that many times.
I want to go home.
I want to open a photography studio
and take pictures of what I want to take pictures of.
Then what about us?
I haven't drawn a naked picture of you yet.
Lin Fan.
Geng Geng!
Your hairstyle is really ugly.
Geng Geng, what do you know?
This is what's in style!
In style? As if!
Push the luggage cart.
You should at least put some gel on it.
Here, let me.
Geng Geng, our new house has two bedrooms.
I gave you the one facing east.
That one is bigger.
I don't have to sleep in a study anymore.
What did you do with all the things in my room?
I helped you pack them!
You have too many books!
It took me a whole day to pack them.
You know how brutal Zhen Hua was.
Hello?
I brought it home with me.
Why don't you come over to get it?
Hey, brat. Are you dating?
Geng Geng, what are you saying?
How can I date in high school?
Dad, Mom, I brought Geng Geng home.
Dad.
Geng Geng, you're back.
You're back.
Hey, this new house isn't bad.
All the devices are new.
Look. Isn't the TV big?
Who knows. On that day...
Yes, it's big. Your dad watches TV all day.
He doesn't even know to help me.
What's going on? Why are you still watching "Princess Pearl"?
This is the new version.
But it's not as good as the old version.
But the actress who plays Liu Hong is not bad.
She's not bad. Really.
Dad, give me the milk.
Sure.
Why are you drinking milk?
If you drink and get full, you won't eat dinner.
Let's have dinner, Geng Geng.
You haven't had this in a long time, right? Eat more, eat more.
Oh, you made my favorite potatoes.
Hi!
What are you trying to do?
While you were in Beijing working as a functionary
you quit after working three months.
You said you liked taking pictures
so you got a job at a magazine.
You were doing a good job.
Why did you resign again?
Mom, look. I haven't even finished my welcome home dinner yet
and you're already suffocating me.
What are you going to do at home?
Quiet down. Watch out. Your Belgian husband might hear.
I plan to open my own photography studio
and take pictures of things I like.
Then you're still a photographer.
You're going to give up a secure job
and become self-employed?
If you're like this, will you be able to get married?
I couldn't get married in Beijing either.
You think you're being reasonable about not getting married?
Bye.
What are you doing?
About that... Geng Geng, don't read now.
- Let's have a chat. - Yeah.
Sure, let's chat.
Auntie Qi and I are really happy that you're back.
Life must have been stressful for a girl like you to live in Beijing by yourself.
You wouldn't come home when we asked you to.
You would always talk about advancing your career.
Now that you're back, we don't have to worry.
What are you trying to say?
Geng Geng, what your mom said was for your own good.
As a girl, it'd be better to settle down and start a family soon.
The son of the head of my department
just came back from England, where he studied abroad.
He's very handsome.
Should I introduce you to him?
Just go and meet him.
Go meet him. He's very handsome.
Auntie Qi!
Have some tangerine.
Why don't you go boil some water?
We'll make some tea.
Okay.
About that...
Did what happened to me and your mom cast a dark shadow on you?
Eat some tangerine.
If you don't have anything to do
you should go play mahjong with the guys downstairs.
Or you can go online to play "Fight the Landlord."
Don't worry about anything.
Then... you've never been in a relationship?
Ms. Geng.
Just call me Geng Geng.
Okay, Geng Geng.
Someone just put in an order for photos at Zhen Hua High School
and they requested that you personally go take the photos.
Zhen Hua?
Did the customer say his name?
The customer said he'd agree to any condition but he wouldn't give his name.
Hey, hold it. What are you doing?
I just want to go inside to take a look.
Take a look at what? This isn't a tourist spot.
What's there to see?
Go. Go. Go.
Sir, I'm an alumna.
Who can prove that you're an alumna?
I don't need anyone to prove it.
My homeroom teacher was Mr. Zhang Ping.
My math teacher was Mr. Zhang Feng.
Really. I'm not lying to you.
Geng Geng?
Are you Geng Geng?
Zheng Ya Min!
Geng Geng, it's really you?
Wow, you're still eating buns?
What can I do? They're my favorite.
- Geng Geng, you've gotten prettier. - Thank you.
Ms. Zheng, you know her?
This is my high school classmate. She's also an alumna.
Oh.
Ms. Zheng?
Of course. I'm a teacher now.
You guys can head inside.
Sir, you should change that walkie talkie.
It's fine as long as I can still use it.
After graduating from Beijing Normal University
I had the opportunity to stay in Beijing.
But I thought being a teacher at Zhen Hua would make me happiest.
So I came back.
What about you, Geng Geng? Why did you come back?
I just couldn't live in Beijing anymore.
Look. This is Class 5.
Do you remember when Yu Huai took the lead and protested against Zhang Ping?
In the end, we won
so you and Yu Huai sat together.
Have you been in touch with Yu Huai?
No one in our class has any news about him.
No.
Geng Geng, I have to get to class.
- Oh yeah, let me add you on WeChat. - Okay.
Class 5 has a group chat.
- I'll add you to it. - I'll search for you.
- Okay. - All done.
- I have to go. - I'll contact you later.
Mr. Zhang Ping brings you up often.
He's still in his original office.
Reporting.
Come in.
Mr. Zhang, you were looking for me?
Geng Geng?
Our famous photographer!
The famous magazine in Beijing... what was it called?
- You were the chief photographer! - I resigned.
- What? You resigned? - Yes.
You look so handsome in this! No lie!
Here, let me take a picture.
- Handsome. - Zhang Ping!
How many times have I told you not to drink the tea that you made yesterday?
Here, I made you tea.
See who it is.
Ms. Shen.
Geng Geng!
Geng Geng! It's been so many years!
Yes.
Look. Our family picture.
This is our son. He's already five years old.
Your son looks like Ms. Shen. Look.
Good thing he didn't inherit your temperament.
I'll get you some water. You can chat with him.
Thank you.
This is our class's group photo.
- Reporting. - Come in.
Mr. Zhang, we're here to hand in the homework.
This is one of your seniors from my very first class.
- Hello. - Hello.
You and Yu Huai aren't in this photo.
You were taking the picture.
Yu Huai was preparing for his competition.
- This is really... - The best of times.
Don't you think you're telling your students that they are the worst?
How can you emphasize that that was the best of times?
It was the best of times.
I haven't seen a lot of the people recently.
I don't have any news of them either.
Have you seen Yu Huai?
Back then, you stayed in science classes because of him.
Yu Huai? I don't know.
He never contacted me.
No one in our class has any news about him.
How could he just disappear?
Thank you for the hyacinth.
That's an ostrich egg shell that my dad brought back from Africa.
I made it myself.
Oh yeah, Professor Han
when are you going to send me
the brand-name powdered milk that I asked you to buy for me?
Ask Beta. Isn't she in London?
Beta!
Hey, help me out.
My wife doesn't have enough milk.
What does that have to do with me?
Geng Geng! You entered the group chat but haven't said anything.
Get out here!
You're in England. How am I supposed to get out there?
Hey! Open a private chat if you're just going to talk to each other.
Whoever's asking for favors to buy things should go away.
Hey, I have a sudoku puzzle.
Who can help me solve it?
Sudoku?
It's been a long time since I stopped doing things that waste brainpower.
Hey, I'll do it!
I'm an expert at those.
This one is interesting.
I'll have something to do during my afternoon meeting!
You're Geng Geng, right?
You're An...?
Yes, my name is Andy. A-N-D-Y.
Andy.
The matchmaker has already given me the gist of your situation.
But I have some questions for you.
Have you ever been in a relationship?
How many siblings do you have?
It's just me and my brother.
I knew it.
Single women at your age with little brothers are worse off.
Does your family favor boys over girls?
My brother is my stepmother's child.
Your parents are divorced?
What honorable people would get divorced?
You have your bachelor's degree, right?
- Yes. - [Call me quickly and save me.]
Coming from a small city
it must have been difficult for you to get into a college in Beijing.
How come you didn't work a little harder to get a Ph.D?
My grades weren't good. I couldn't have gotten into grad school.
In the past, I read about a study that said
a girl's IQ is inherited from her parents.
Excuse me. I have to take this call.
Hey.
That's right. Ye Ya International Trade.
[Where's your blind date?]
We usually work with crude oil companies.
After the discount, it should be approximately 8,000 yuan.
Why did he hang up on me?
You're quite virtuous.
As you heard, I'm quite busy.
On the whole, I think it's better that women do the housework.
Oh yeah, what do you do for work?
I'm a photographer.
Photographer? That doesn't sound very reliable.
But when we have children, you can take pictures of our children.
That would be good. Cheers.
It's Ms. Geng, right?
Hello, hello!
I didn't think I would run into you here.
I've admired you for a long time. Did you come back here to teach?
What? Teach?
It's rare to see a high class photographer like you in our town.
I just came back to visit my parents.
The people in your family must be highly educated and in upper management.
For a famous photographer like you
if a guy didn't come from a long line of literary talent
doesn't have a villa or five cars, he couldn't marry someone like you, right?
Oh yeah, my business has been growing.
If I work hard for another three to five years, I'll have those things.
Right, Geng Geng?
Is that a name you can call out?
Here, for you.
What is this?
You'll find out when you open it.
You came here from Beijing just to give me this?
Are you touched?
Do me a favor.
Dad. Auntie Qi.
Come inside.
- This is Auntie Qi. - Hello.
Hello.
I am Geng Geng's boyfriend. My name is Lu Xing He.
Come in and sit down!
Come in and sit.
- Come sit. - Thank you.
Have a seat.
Geng Geng, you never mentioned that you had a boyfriend.
Where's Lin Fan?
Don't change the subject! We're asking you a question!
So it's like this.
We've been together in Beijing for many years.
And then she wanted to come back.
But I wanted to stay in Beijing.
So we separated.
A few days ago, I heard that she was going on a blind date.
My heart ached.
I thought for a long time and realized that we were still in love.
So I decided to get her back.
You went to her blind date?
I stole her from her blind date.
Geng Geng, how come you didn't tell us you had a boyfriend?
We even arranged for you to go on a blind date.
What a joke!
It's okay.
We'll just explain things to him later.
Since she already has a boyfriend
it's something we should be happy about.
- Yeah. - That's right, Auntie Qi.
Since it's already come to this
Sir, I'd like to marry your daughter.
Don't help that much.
We're not young anymore.
We can't just drag out something like this, right?
But--
We don't even know what you do for work!
I'm a professional painter.
Over the years, I've signed with a few European and American art galleries.
My art sells okay.
I'll show you.
This one sells really well.
It's called, "Aliens Raping Earth's Girls."
This...
It's okay.
Let me show you the art I'm giving you.
Oh okay.
Lin Fan?
Lin Fan, what happened?
What happened?
Excuse me!
It hurts!
If anything happens, what do I do?
I won't let him play soccer anymore!
Don't worry. Everything will be fine.
Thank you.
Sir, Ma'am, don't worry.
Healthcare at this hospital is the best in the province.
Relax.
I'll go do the paperwork for the surgery.
I'll come with you.
You should stay with them.
It's okay. It's okay.
It hurts.
Now you know that it hurts?
Aren't you really good at soccer?
Now you can see that you're not.
It was a nice shot.
You're still thinking about soccer?
You've scared your mom with this hospital visit.
No, it's okay.
I'll head out.
Geng Geng, who's that?
That's Geng Geng's--
He's my brother-in-law, right?
I guess you weren't injured badly enough.
Geng Geng! Can you be more gentle?
Can you be more serious?
One, two, three.
Okay.
For the next one, be more shy and lower your head.
One, two, three.
Great. Perfect.
- We're done with today's photo shoot. - Thank you.
You're welcome. Yue Yue.
- Yes. - Help them change.
- Okay. - Good job.
Hello, Dad?
Geng Geng, Auntie Qi has to work late today.
Can you go to the hospital to keep Lin Fan company?
Sure, no problem.
Okay, I got it.
Bye.
Geng Geng, I think Brother-in-law Lu is not bad.
Can't you tell it's fake?
My parents have been on my case about getting married.
I asked him to help me out.
We're good friends.
I think he's a nice guy.
You should make it real.
You want to manage my life too?
It's hard to come by a guy who likes you.
What do you mean by that?
I won't be able to meet someone I like?
That's not what I mean.
What I mean is...
it's great that he likes you
and he's not a bad guy.
You two should discuss marriage.
Why can't you be together?
What's with you today?
Why did you ask to meet me at such a place?
To thank you.
It sounds so insincere coming from you.
Go away.
If you really want to thank me, let's go get our certificate tomorrow.
But what about all your girlfriends in Beijing?
I'll just find some time to go there to meet up with them.
I'm being serious.
If we're together, what happens to them?
So are you saying yes?
That's easy.
Are you crazy?
I'm saying goodbye to them.
Then didn't you lose my number too?
I can recite your number backwards.
- 93564... - All right.
So when are we getting married?
What marriage?
You haven't even proposed yet.
I've already proposed so many times.
You weren't satisfied with any of them?
You call those proposals?
At most, you could call them performance art.
Do you know the significance behind a proposal?
It's to be with you.
It's to do anything it takes to be with you.
Geng Geng.
If you're really saying yes
I'll give you the proposal you want.
Geng Geng, I've solved the sudoku that Yu Huai gave you.
What is it?
Geng Geng, I've solved the sudoku that Yu Huai gave you.
The numbers are the longitude and latitude coordinates of a place.
Go look there. Maybe you'll hear some news on Yu Huai.
You have to remember to treat me to a meal, okay?
You still can't forget him?
Fine. I'll help you look for him.
Take a left at that intersection.
36.25 degrees north.
In 300 meters, take a left.
Straight ahead for another 300 meters.
It's not this intersection.
Hello, is there anything I can help you with?
Do you know Yu Huai?
Yu Huai?
Who's Yu Huai?
How did it go?
Geng Geng, let me tell you something.
Yu Huai is a jerk!
Do you really have to find him?
Fine. I'll find him with you.
Whether he's alive or dead, I'll find him!
So that you'll give up!
Geng Geng, tell me
do you like Lu Xing He?
Take care of yourself.
Take care of your girlfriend.
She and I are just classmates.
High school students can't date.
Oh, is that so?
Your expression has already given you away.
Geng Geng, there's really nothing between us.
Hey, is it Brother-in-law Lu?
Hello?
Hey, I'll take you somewhere tomorrow.
Where are we?
Yesterday, I went to the local police station.
This is Yu Huai's house.
What is it?
I don't dare knock.
You've spared no effort in searching
yet you're chickening out here?
Yu Huai.
Open the door, Yu Huai!
Hey, don't knock anymore. He moved.
Do you know where he moved to?
I don't know. He didn't say.
When did he move?
It's been a few days.
- Oh, thank you. - You're welcome.
If Yu Huai isn't dead, then he must be hiding somewhere!
Geng Geng, just give up!
- I'm-- - Take a walk with me.
Written on my wall at home
are the words "succeeded" and "failed."
Every time I propose to you
I add a mark to under "failed."
Unknowingly, it's already been 56 times.
How I wish that just one time
you'd blurt out yes without thinking.
That's how you want to trick me into it?
Oh yeah.
Did you see the painting I gave you?
I can't believe you kept that photo.
I still remember your expression as you taught me to use the camera that day.
The way you yelled into the ocean...
and the outline of the setting sun.
So many years have gone by.
But when I think of it now, it seems like it was yesterday.
I like the realism of art on a board.
I painted that picture
because I wanted to keep the you from that day.
Because that's the only picture I have of you.
Because there's only one you.
I don't want you to pass me by.
Let's be together.
I'm not ready yet.
So... are you saying yes?
Fine.
After I find that jerk Yu Huai
will you be ready then?
- An antique! - What are you doing?
Let me play with it.
Then tell me how I should take the picture.
Those people who just suddenly appear in our lives
never wait until you're ready before appearing.
But if anyone bullies you in the future
remember to call me at any time.
I'll really, really, really miss you!
There are many things in life
that you don't have the power to decide.
But it's okay.
I'll create my own path and work hard.
I'm sure that one day, I'll become the person I want to become.
[Can you come to the hospital tonight?]
[Okay.]
Geng Geng, how come you didn't tell me you had a boyfriend?
Send me a picture of him.
Gosh, Mom! Did you really have to call?
I'm at the hospital. We all need rest.
Don't call me Mom. Hurry and turn on your camera for a video call.
Jian Dan, what's with you?
I'm not at home.
Geng Geng, I discovered a secret while visiting Zhou Mo in the US.
Hurry and turn on your camera, okay?
Jian Dan, what's wrong with you?
You don't think roaming data is expensive?
- Geng Geng. - Geng Geng, let me explain.
- Give it to me. - No.
Zhou Mo, I'm not done with you yet.
No, it's not what you think!
- Really, really. - Give it to me.
Stop!
Do you guys just want me to listen to you fight?
Geng Geng, do you see this?
This is Yu Huai's notebook. Do you see it?
Let me tell you something.
Zhou Mo and Yu Huai have been living together the past four to five years.
He just moved away within the last two days since I was moving here.
Look. He's been avoiding me.
Because he's avoiding you!
Look. These are his blankets.
He... get up! Get up!
He's been living here the whole time.
And here's the ramen that he ate.
He ate it but didn't clean up. Look.
Zhou Mo, you were helping him and kept it from us for so many years.
No! Are you done yet?
Geng Geng.
- Are you okay? - Are you okay?
I'm fine.
I'll explain to you slowly... No, no.
I promised that I wouldn't say anything.
I really can't say anything.
Zhou Mo.
Can I see Yu Huai's notebooks?
Here.
This one.
The one by the side
is that the English textbook from high school?
[Yu Huai]
Are you talking about this one?
He's always kept this with him.
But he still left it behind.
I know it must hurt.
But I still have to tell you that
Yu Huai really can't go back.
What are you saying? What exactly are you saying?
What?
Are you really a friend?
- What kind of friend are you? - How am I not a friend?
- What did I... - Yu Huai...
Geng Geng, how come you haven't come back yet?
I need to pee! I can't hold it in!
What are you laughing at?
This looks nice.
Then fall down and get hurt a few more times.
Slowly. Slowly.
Ouch!
Lin Fan!
Miss, are you okay?
