-My Mr. Mermaid-
-Episode 28-
Yun Duo.
Where did Cheng Mei go? How come her desk is empty?
Did she switch desks?
-She resigned. -Resigned?
Why? Stop joking around Teacher Sun!
Duo Duo, listen carefully. I'm being serious here.
Don't get agitated when you hear this.
What happened exactly?
This morning,
Cheng Mei went to Director Liu to admit
that she deleted the documents. She even placed the blame on you!
That's not possible. This joke isn't even funny.
-Cheng Mei is my best friend, she wouldn't do something like that. -Okay okay.
Yun Duo. I'm not kidding.
I know that your relationship with her is very close.
Do you understand? This world,
this is a workplace! Yun Duo,
at a workplace, the person that stabs you in the back isn't necessarily your enemy in front of you.
It could be the friend that's always cheering you on.
But Teacher Sun, I don't think this is possible. She wouldn't do this to me.
Isn't there some kind of misunderstanding? I'm going to find her.
Yun Duo!
Cheng Mei!
Cheng Mei! Wait, wait!
What are you doing?
That's what I want to ask you. You're really going to leave?
I heard from Teacher Sun that you-
Exactly what happened? Is there some kind of mistake?
There is no mistake.
What others told you is exactly what happened.
I don't believe what others say, I want to hear it from you myself.
If you don't explain this situation clearly, you're not going anywhere.
What do you want to hear?
This issue has already gotten to this point. What else do you want me to say?
I want to hear your explanation.
-Tell me what happened, is there a mis- -Yun Duo.
You already know I'm the one that framed you.
Why aren't you facing reality?
Don't tell me you naively believed that I did this because I have some personal issues?
You thought that I did this because I had no other choice?
Fine. Then I'll tell you.
There's only one reason why I did this.
And that's because I find you annoying.
I want to get you out of my life. And the further you are, the better.
Cheng Mei..
Don't talk to me! I don't want to hear your voice.
Every time I hear your voice, I remember my own failure
I actually lost to you.
Lost to me?
Do you really not know? There's only one position to become a full-time reporter out of all of the interns.
The person Director Liu want to stay
is you, not me.
Because of this you...
Yes.
Just to make you leave voluntarily, I not only deleted your files, but I also placed the blame on you.
I even tricked you by saying that Director Liu was going to record your offence and forced you to resign.
I did all of this just to obtain the top position.
Now that I said it, do you understand now?
Don't cry in front of my face.
Even though you're so innocent, you foolishly believed that I was never suspicious?
That's right, I never suspected you.
How could I suspect someone that I can eat meals with and can sleep on the same bed with them?
Someone that will help me whenever I need help, regardless of everything,
and no matter when, would listen to my troubles and worries.
You are my friend, you are my best friend.
Just because we are best friends, I can't believe you would do this.
What did I do?
You clearly know that I like Lin Zi, but you still got close with him.
You even know that he likes you but you aren't keeping your distance!
Only in front of me, you act like a sweet and naive young woman.
Don't you know? Your suspicious and unclear attitude
makes him unable to let go of you and not notice me even more.
So you're treating me like this because of Lin Zi?
Is this important?
Either way, we can't go back anymore.
However, it's not much.
This kind of friend that comes and goes is quite common.
A person leaves usually not because there is a new hope.
It's just that
they feel very disappointed at the present situation.
So pretty.
Cheng Mei!
Coming!
Cheng Mei, where did you and Yun Duo run off to?
You came back so late, everyone was waiting for you.
Sorry, sorry. Earlier, Yun Duo and I went to the library collecting articles for our group report.
It's just that we lost track of time while doing so. Sorry about that.
You two came too late, we didn't have time to tell you,
For this group report, we don't have to work so hard.
Why is that?
Yesterday I realized that my brother had the same theme for this group report last year.
We just looked over it, we realized that if we just modify and revise a few things,
change a bit of the work, then we can just use it and hand it in.
Really?
That's right. Cheng Mei, just look at it yourself.
It's true. Their viewpoints of this theme is practically the same as ours.
They even put the articles in order.
RIght? This is actually all thanks to Little Mei.
Now, it looks like we can just pass without using any effort.
I don't think this is right.
Even though the theme and data is the same,
But we can't just take someone else's report and present it.
This is plagiarism, it isn't right.
What do you mean plagiarism? This was made by my brother.
He said that I could take it and use it.
Since the professor arranged this assignment, he wants us to learn how to make a report,
and not use someone else's work and present it.
Yun Duo, aren't you being too one-track minded? It's only a group report,
You don't have to make it sound so serious.
Also, we all agreed to this. This is the fastest and best plan.
It's not being one-track minded, it's a matter of principle.
What's wrong is wrong. Just because you guys think it's right, doesn't mean it's right.
You are so annoying and have a lot of opinions. Why don't you go work with other groups then!
That's right. If not because of Cheng Mei, who would want you to be in their group.
If it's really like this and we violated your principles,
That's okay. Go prepare this group report yourself. Stop dragging us down.
That's enough, stop being too much. Did Yun Duo say anything wrong?
You're taking someone else's work, making it yours, and acting as if that's normal.
You may not think it's shameful, but I can't stand it. Here, I don't want it.
Yun Duo. If they want to plagiarize, then they can do so.
We're going to find some more information. Come on.
Cheng Mei.. Sorry.
What? Why are you saying sorry?
This is supposed to be a group project for four people, but in the end, it's only you and me.
And because of me, you fought with your friends.
Stop. I never wanted to be friends with those that can't distinguish from right and wrong.
Also, standing up for your best friend is a given.
If anyone dares to bully you in front of me, I won't let them pass me.
Okay. Since you have the time to apologize to me, you better use that time to prepare for this report instead.
See? We have lots of information to organize.
As long as we do our work well, we'll definitely succeed.
Anyways, no matter what happens, I think
we will definitely become official reporters together.
We'll work hard together to become official reporters. Here.
Are you and Lin Zi... secretly...
dating at work?
If I said yes, would you be offended?
Why would I take offense? I couldn't be happier that you have someone you like.
You guys cannot let all this go to waste. Enjoy the meal. Today it's on me.
Enjoy the food! Bye!
Yun Duo!
Sorry. I don't have an appetite.
You go ahead and eat. I'm going.
Lin Zi, you-

Erbai, here.
Baby.
Yun Duo, you're back?
Auntie Lu!
Are you making dinner?
Yes, difficult as always.
I'll come help you then.
Hurry, I can't do it without you!
-Auntie Lu. -Yes?
You are -- didn't you say it was really difficult?
Yes! Leading those two male animals
to make dinner, you think that's easy?
Two male animals?
It's those two. How hard is it to make dinner?
Okay. We're already at this point, you guys must be hungry.
This meal wasn't made well after half an hour, but at least it's hot now.
Drink some milkshake for now.
Thank you, uncle.
You're welcome.
Why are you home?
Final exams are soon, and head coach Yuan said
before they're over we're not having training, so I came home.
Could you call it a vacation then?
Not really, even though I don't need to train, I still have to work my hardest to review my homework.
Head coach Yuan also said people who don't pass their exams can't compete.
Then shouldn't you be studying at your dorm right now?
I would think so to, if that fool Qi Ruifeng wasn't also there.
With him there you can't get any peace and quiet.
Never mind reading a book, you can't even rest well there.
So I just came back here.
I came home to find
some motivation enough to get me to study.
You guys are talking about class, right?
They were just talking about class, weren't they?
But why do I feel like what I heard
was quite ambiguous?
Did I make some mistake?
I think your feeling's right.
Oh look, you think so too?
Dad, mom, don't be like this.
Actually, Yun Duo and I for a while now already
agreed to do an interview.
You're here just in time. There's no time to lose. Let's go do the interview now.
Hey, you guys aren't eating?
No, I'll just drink this.
Yun Duo. Don't forget to take Erbai to take a dump.
Okay!
Why are you making Erbai go?
I'm having Erbai go to be a scout.
A scout? Since when have you understood dogs' language?
How could I understand dogs?
In a little while I'll probably go follow them, try to eavesdrop.
Then what if they discover me?
I'll just say, "Oh, I came to find Erbai."
Baby Fei, your brain is getting less and less useful.
Well done. Amazing.
So were you preparing to tell Uncle and Auntie about us?
Is it not ok?
Can I discuss something with you?
What?
Can we not tell them about our relationship?
Why? They're my parents.
It's nothing bad to let them know.
Also, my mom previously put us on a blind date.
But... No buts, I already promised you to not let my team know about us.
Are you making me keep my distance from you at home?
But I am your tenant. I live with Uncle and Auntie.
If they know, it will be awkward.
That's right. My mom's brain is the same as Qi Ruifeng.
If she knows, she will do something unexpected.
Maybe she will drag me to your home to propose a wedding.
Isn't that right?
Yun Duo.
Tell me honestly. Do you regret being with me?
How? Of course not.
Or you're ashamed of your boyfriend. You don't want others to know about me.
No.
I even made an excuse to come home to see you because I missed you.
You seem unhappy to see me.
No. I am so happy that you're home.
I was in a very bad mood today. I cried coming home.
When I saw you, I feel much better.
You cried? What happened?
No wonder you kept saying your future is confusing.
Do you remember Cheng Mei?
Yes. Isn't she your best friend?
She replaced you in interviewing me.
It's her. She was my good friend.
But, she might not be anymore.
What happened?
Today, I realized she's been hating me all along.
Cheng Mei and I are college friends.
That was my first time leaving home for school.
I was not sociable so I ate alone.
What are you eating? Is this very yummy?
It's alright.
Alright? I see you eating it everyday. I thought it's very good.
I don't know what's good around here.
So, I'm just eating this.
That's the case? Stop eating.
Let me take you to some good places.
Let's go.
Chengmei.
The ChengMei then was very nice to me.
If it wasn't for her,
I couldn't adapt to college life that quickly.
To me, because this city had Cheng Mei,
it allowed me to feel at home.
It made me want to work hard for our dream to become a reporter.
Because I know Cheng Mei isn't just my friend.
She's also my family.
So now I know she's been hating me.
I feel terrible. We were such great friends.
How did we become like this?
I understand you.
Because this was once my question too.
Ruifeng, Ouyang, and I were best friends before.
What we are holding in our hands now is not indignation but determination.
Unless we are unable to hold tight to success, or else, we are not letting go.
We won't lose again.
We won't lose anymore.
At that moment, I never thought
that my best friend
would treat me as an enemy one day.
Enemy? That serious?
I can feel that the Ouyang now
not only hates me but he despises me.
I'm not the same anymore.
Whether it is the basketball court or the swimming pool,
don't dream about beating me.
Will you feel terrible when facing Ouyang Heng?
Will you want to avoid him?
It's a lie to say I don't feel bad, but I won't avoid him.
I will definitely not run away from him.
Because I know if I run away,
we will never have the chance to reconcile.
Ouyang Heng hates you. You still want to reconcile with him?
That's what my heart tells me.
One day, he will see me as his brother.
You're so confident?
It's not confidence. I just don't want to have any regrets.
Regrets?
Actually,
not being able to compete for a few years have taught me
many things will become better through time.
A body's injury will heal over time.
A heartbreak will slowly be forgotten over time.
Except
regrets will not disappear over time.
So in order to not have regrets, you did not give up on your friendship?
That's right. What about you?
If you lose Cheng Mei,
will you feel regretful?
Of course I will feel regret.
After all, we were great friends.
Then don't let yourself have regrets.
Try to find a way to save your friendship.
Don't have regrets.
Did Auntie Lu go out?
Yibai, Yun Duo, the winds are great today.
My husband and I decided to go on a date.
Take care of the house. We took Erbai with us.
When the time comes, you two should take your innocent affection a level higher. But be careful!
You must hold yourself back when it gets too sexy.
Good morning.
Morning.
What is it?
Nothing.
Let me see.
It's nothing.
Did I do something evil in my previous life? My mom just loves to torture me.
Uncle and Auntie probably went out today. There's only us in the house.
Have you had breakfast? Let me make it for you.
My mom prepared some already.
I'm sorry. I didn't see that.
Sorry. That's ok.
Let's eat.
Should I be saying something?
But my entire mind is full of Auntie Lu's words.
Make sure you stop yourself when you get too sexy.
This is my first time to be at home with Yun Duo as her boyfriend.
Should I do something?
Would it be stupid to ask how she's doing?
Or should I ask her if she wants to go out for a walk?
What are you laughing at?
Are you a kid? You use your face instead of mouth to eat.
I'll go open the door.
Who is it?
Hi. It's delivery.
Wait a sec.
Hello. It's such a nice weekend, you must be feeling lonely.
Don't worry. A Sunny pretty boy has been delivered.
I have enough loyalty right?
Come in.
I want 2 more cups of orange juice.
Qi Ruifeng, if you demand Yun Duo like that, you better leave.
Big brother. I'm wrong. I'll punish myself with 3 cups.
Sister-in-law. Give me 3 cups of orange juice.
Are you not crying until you meet your tomb? Do you believe that I'll strangle you right now?
I know I'm wrong.
Yibai, let him live for now. Kill him after he wins the dream cup championship for us.
If Yangyang isn't begging for you, you'd be dead today.
Brother Yibai, if Brother Feng didn't bring us to your home,
we won't know that you're shacking with Yun Duo.
Ming Tian!
It's not what you guys are thinking.
Tang Yibai's mom is my landlady. I'm renting a room here. I'm not shacking with Tang Yibai.
That's right. They're not shacking. They're practicing.
Once they get married, they'll be living here anyways. They're getting use to it.
Isn't that right, sister in law? What sister in law?
You should get used to this status. Coach Wu, Coach Yuan, and his fans
will find out about your relationship. Get used to it.
Qi Ruifeng, stop blabbering.
I'm not dating Tang Yibai.
You still don't admit it. Your interactions show that you're a couple.
That's right. You two mutually like each other.
It's not normal to not be together.
This... You guys stop making it hard for Yun Duo.
We are really not together.
No way! I already did so much as the Cupid.
I already shot Daphne with my arrow and yet you're not together yet.
That's so not right!
Yun Duo is the one who doesn't want to be with me.
Tang Yibai, you...
Yes. We are not together yet.
But, I'm courting her. I'm trying to make her happy until she accepts me.
That's so interesting. That's a good method.
Beautiful. No wonder you're my best buddy after all.
Tang Yibai, come here. I have to talk to you privately.
​Segments and Subtitles brought to you by the Just Keep Swimming Volunteer Team @ Viki
Didn't we say to not tell others about us? Why did you tell Qi Ruifeng that you're courting me?
I did promise you to not let others know that we are together.
But I didn't say I won't let others know that I like you.
You... Don't worry. It's not my first day meeting Qi Ruifeng.
He's just like my mom. He loves to see me getting tortured.
So if you hide it from him, he will keep on coming after us.
We should just act the way he wants to see. Then, he will let go of us.
Hey.
What is this cute couple secretly talking about here?
It's all because of you. Yun Duo is unhappy about what I said.
She is embarrassed and shy about everyone knowing that I'm courting her.
Yun Duo. You're doing it right. Don't let Yibai get the girl so easily.
Let him court you. Torture him a bit.
Brother, let me tell you. Yun Duo is my best buddy. You have to get through me before you can court her.
If you do me wrong, I will not let you touch Yun Duo at all.
Yun Duo, let's go. Don't bother with him.
Why are you standing here? Go pour us some drinks. So not observant, how can you court girls?
Let's go. Don't bother with him.
Hey.
Qi Ruifeng, you should really go see the doctors.
You should be attracted to cute girls.
How can you be attracted to a tomboy like Xiang Yangyang?
I can't think it through.
Qi Ruifeng. What are you doing? Are you studying well?
You came so early to get Tang Yibai to help you study? What have you learned?
Yibai didn't say anything. Why are you talking so much?
I was your English tutor before. If you don't do well, you'll make me embarrassed.
Alright, open up the book. I'll help you study.
I don't want to learn. Go teach Ming Tian then.
Ming Tian is smart. He doesn't need me to teach him
Wait. I have a call coming in.
Hello, I'm Qi Ruifeng.
Jie Er? Why are you calling me?
I'm studying at Tang Yibai's house.
Going out to eat? I think...
Remember Qi ruifeng.
You are a healthy normal man.
You should like cute girls like Fang Jie er.
Not tomboys like Xiang Yangyang.
Okay then. Let's eat together then. After i finish studying, let's go together.
Okay, bye.
Did you hear right? Our college's campus Belle is asking us to dinner.
Ruifeng, I'm not going. My mom told me to eat at home.
Everybody. Cheers!
After studying all day, we must eat a big meal.
Hurry and eat. I'll help you cook it.
thanks Jie Er.
Wow Jie Er. You'll be a great mom. You're so gentle.
Good evening. Our restaurant is doing a special event tonight. If a couple takes a picture of them kissing,
we will give out a free dish of meat.
Are you guys a couple? Do you want to participate in our event?
We are actually... I'm sorry.
She is not my girlfriend yet.
She is not your girlfriend yet?
That's right. Even though she's not right now,
she will be soon. We will participate the next time.
Alright. Excuse me then. Thanks.
Eat more.
I'll do it myself.
Thanks.
Are you ok? What's wrong?
I'm fine. I'll be careful next time.
Did you hear? Jie Er said next time.
That means she will come again with Ruifeng.
Maybe, they could take a picture together and get Qi Ruifeng's favorite meat.
Hey, stop being so nosy. Can't you see Jie Er isn't feeling comfortable.
Also, if I was really on a date, I won't tell you guys.
So you're saying you're planning another date with Jie Er?
If Jie Er is willing to, it's possible.
I'm going to the restroom.
Why are you holding the soy sauce?
I'm also going to the restroom.
Calm down Xiang Yangyang.
That dummy Qi Ruifeng is going on a date. It has nothing to do with you.
You have to calm down.
Calm down. Do you hear? Calm down.
Isn't that table Qi Ruifeng and Tang Yibai?
That's right. Who's that girl sitting next to Qi Ruifeng?
She looks ok.
Wow. They really match each other.
Could she be his girlfriend?
You must calm down. Calm down.
What are you looking at? Have you never seen me before?
Why are you being so mean?
When we were eating, I noticed you're being weird.
I'm weird. I find you weird.
How?
As long as Fang Jie Er is present, you're not the same.
You even ask her out on another date. Tell me the truth. Do you like Fang Jie Er?
Xiang Yangyang, didn't you say you won't bother with Qi ruifeng's business? Why are you asking him that?
If he really admits to liking Fang Jie Er, what should I do?
okay Qi Ruifeng, stop dazing.
Think about how you're going to respond. It's an important question. You can't answer wrong.
Why does he keep looking at me and not responding? Did you find out that I like him?
Is he worrying about my feelings so he's not telling me?
Why is she staring at me? I'm so nervous.
Should I say like or not like? Whatever. I'll going at it.
Yes. I do like her. Can't I?
He really likes Fang Jie Er. No Xiang Yangyang. Fighting!
Hold on. Don't let him know that you care about him.
Sure. Of course. Fang Jie Er is such a good girl. A ton of guys are after her.
I'm afraid you won't be able to get the girl.
I already told you that I like someone else. You can still smile?
Xiang Yangyang, you sure don't care about me.
Yes. I am afraid that I can't get the girl.
How about this? You help me court her?
Qi Ruifeng, you bastard. You're too much!
It's fine that you don't like me, but you still asked me to help you court some other girl.
My god! I'm so mad I'm going to spit out blood.
You want me to help you court other girls?
That's right, if you don't mind.
Why would I mind?
I'm afraid you'll feel awkward.
I don't feel awkward. We are teammates. I don't feel anything for you.
How would I feel awkward?
Don't force yourself. If you really aren't willing to or if you don't feel comfortable,
It's fine, you can tell me. I don't mind.
Helping you court girls. It's no big deal. Why would I mind?
okay, that's a deal.
Sure.
Deal.
Yibai, we'll be leaving now. Go on your date with Yun Duo.
Bye bye.
So nosy.
I actually think they gave me a good idea.
How about we go night sightseeing?
No. You still have to prepare for your test.
You should head back to rest.
Alright.
Let's go home.
Don't misunderstand. This is not holding hands.
It's warming hands. Warming hands?
The weather is getting cold. I'm afraid you'll be cold, so I'm warming your hands.
If you're afraid others would see,
I'll hide it in here.
Is it cold?
Cheng Mei.
Wait a sec.
I feel like we don't have much to talk about.
I'm leaving. Wait a sec.
