Granting You Dreamlike Life
Older Brother Lin.
Older brother.
Ruo Meng, if you are still alive,
you should be older than Xing Ai.
Are you doing well here?
Bring the wine here.
Xu Xingcheng, I must criticize you today.
My younger sister sang so well just now.
Why didn't you take the initiative to applause her?
Tell me why. Why?
Who says I didn't applause?
Any song sounds good in the performance at Long Fu Theater.
What?
You...what did you just say? What was that?
I said...this song sounds the same.
It's not novel.
But if you have the time, teach me Beijing opera.
Stop fooling around, okay?
Is this that funny?
It's not.
Xu Xingcheng, you want to learn Beijing opera? Are you crazy?
I'm not crazy.
Luo Fusheng, I'm being serious.
I'm really very serious now.
One must accept new things.
New things?
Let me tell you what new thing is.
The performances at Mei Gao Mei every day,
they sing new pieces.
Beijing Opera is outdated.
You are wrong. I want to learn this old fashioned toy.
Teach me now.
Come.
Excellent.

This Xu Xing Cheng. I have never seen someone who's so ignorant in my life.
When he should clap, he didn't clap. When he shouldn't shout, he was the first to shout.
How could there be someone so stupid like him on earth?
But talking about this,
he's the most honest audience I have ever met in my life.
He clapped till his hands are red and his throat were hoarse from shouting.
How could there be someone so stupid like him on earth?
Miss, someone sent this letter to you.
Okay, I know. You can leave.
[ To Xu Xing Ai ]
Dreams will take you to the ideal sky.
It won't let you be caught in an ignorant world
It will allow you to grow up happily in the embrace of thoughts
Believe in yourself and you'll triumph over everything.
The beautiful future will belong to you.
A grown up man bullying a young lady. Aren't you ashamed?
Eighth Sister Yang of Tian Bo's residence is waiting for me to address her.
Excellent.
You are Tian Bo residence's Eighth Sister Yang.
I spit on you.
You must be Ninth Younger Sister.
Look at the sword.
Excellent!
Excellent.
Bravo!
Bravo.
It's a full house.
Stop pushing. There are tickets for the next performance.
Stop pushing.
Everyone will get one.
Brother Qi, this girl really has skills.
She debuted only a few days ago and they already sold that many tickets.
If Luo Fu Sheng didn't exclaim that she was good,
she wouldn't have gone this far.
Talking about this, it's strange. That idiot Luo Fu Sheng
should have been here earlier. Why haven't we seen him yet?
Luo Fu Sheng is a scoundrel who is easily smitten.
He should have changed to a new interest now.
Would he still remember this girl? But this is good too.
Previously, we didn't gain any benefits from them.
Luo Fu Sheng is not here today.
When the performance ends, let's count their ticket sales.
Older brother, are you thinking of stealing the money from the sale of the tickets?
Slap your mouth.
How could you use the word "steal"?
Would we commit such a despicable thing?
We are using our own hands
to take back what belonged to us. Understand?
Yes.
It has ended. Come back tomorrow again.
- Come back tomorrow again. - Let's go.
Thank you, everyone.
It has ended.
That move was really great.
Senior brother.
Older brother, how's Dad? I didn't visit him at the hospital.
Don't worry. With me here, everything's fine.
But Dad's health is very weak. Should we get him some tonics?
I heard that Su Hang restaurant's steamed turtle with rock sugar is not bad. Why don't we buy some for Dad?
Hold it. It's clearly you who wants to eat it.
Am I such a glutton?
Older brother, how's the ticket sale today?
After compensating Boss Ma, how much balance do we have?
That heavy?
Give it back to me.
Little girl, do you know how to count?
If you can't count, let me help you.
- You.. - Tianying, forget it. Father said that since we are depending on other people's charity,
the less troubles, the better.
A financial loss may prevent disaster. Just let him take it.
Why should he take it?
This is hard-earned money from our colleagues and we still need to pay back Boss Ma.
Who gives him the right to take it away?
Yes, I'm holding your money pouch now.
If you want me to bring this up again...

Take her along with us.
When I receive the monthly protection money, I will release her then.
Don't!
I'm begging you. My younger sister is young and doesn't know anything.
If you want to punish, I will accept the punishment.
You want to take her punishment?
Who do you think you are?
Older brother.
Tear this place apart.
- Younger sister. - Mister Hu,
I'm begging you. Release my younger sister. She's young and doesn't know anything.
- Based on her young age... - Get lost.
Wait.
Xu...
Who are you?
Brother Qi, he's Luo Fu Sheng's friend.
He seems to have some backing.
What do you need?
Dear friend, listen carefully. I originally planned to let Luo Fu Sheng
to come deal with you.
Yet I thought about it for a second. Luo Fu Sheng uses violence.
I can't be violent like him. Don't you think so?
Tell me. If we talk about body build, am I bigger than you?
Tell me. If we talk about education, am I at a higher level than you?
Tell me.
If we talk about money,
do I have more than you?
But we are equal.
I won't, because of my bigger build, bully you.
Even more so, it can't be that because I'm more educated than you, I look down on you.
If you want to know, if we talk about life learning, you are much better than me.
I won't, because I'm richer than you,
thinks that I'm above you.
Because sometimes I will think that I am so poor that I only have money left.
Hence,
although I don't bully you,
you shouldn't bully a junior performer who's weaker than you.
Even more so, you shouldn't bully a girl. Understand?
People are born equally.
Isn't that so? Right?
Did you see that?
This is a cultured person.
There are needles hidden in the cotton. [ T/N : The words are polite but there are barbs in it ]
A soft knife can kill.
You are great.
- Get rid of him. - What are you doing? Don't come hear me.
Release me.
Wait!
Friend.
I think you are right.
It's very reasonable.
I will give you face today.
We still have time.
Let's go.
- Tian Ying, are you okay? - I'm fine. Older brother, are you okay?
I didn't know this trick is even much better than Luo Fu Sheng's fist.
Mr Xu, thank you for just now.
Don't mention it. I'm returning this to you.
Mr Xu, this belongs to you.
From ancient times till now, rewarding excellent performers has always been an artistic matter.
Miss Tian Ying, why are you pushing it away?
I'm not an excellent performer.
Even if I'm one in the future,
I will only take my share.
Go and pack up first.
Okay.
Let's go.
Thank you for your help.
We are very grateful.
It was an accidental meeting. It's not a big deal.
Frankly, I'm here to return
this necklace to Miss Tian Ying.
My necklace.
Why is it with you?
You dropped it outside the hospital that day.
I happened to pick it up.
This necklace is very unique. It must be precious to you.
Keep it properly. Don't lose it again.
Thank you.
I'm leaving with them to explain the situation.
Mr Xu!
- This has nothing to do with you. We can't involve you. - Tian Ying, let's go.
Everything's fine. Don't worry.
Mr Xu.
Mr Xu!
Tian Ying.
Over there.
Brother Qi, although this rascal is very close to Luo Fu Sheng,
he's just a rich man's son who only knows how to talk big.
Older brother...
Over there!
- Harder! I was wrong, Brother Qi.
What did I always tell you?
If you follow me, you must keep your eyes and ears open.
How do you work?
Hit harder.
Brother Qi, you are indeed smart.
Brother Qi.
Older brother.
Tian Ying.
Come, you have worked hard for the whole day.
Supplement your health now.
Thank you, older brother.
- What are you doing? - I'm taking this money to bail out Mr Xu from the police station.
Have you gone crazy? This is from our hard work.
It wasn't easy to get it back. We need this to support the theatrical troupe.
How could you use this to save an outsider?
Outsider?
Older brother, if he weren't here, you would have use this money to placate that Hu Qi.
Moreover, I could also have been taken away by Hu Qi.
Even if that is the case, this little amount that we have
may not be enough for loose change. How will you bail him out?
Tian Ying.
Sometimes, we have to accept our fate.
People like us are performers. No one cares if we die in the police station.
Unlike Mr Xu. If we don't bail him out, some else will.
By saying this, you reminded me of something.
Tian Ying.
Aren't you Miss Tian Ying from Long Fu Theater?
Which wind blew you here?
But you are standing in the wrong place today.
We are a small joint here. We are not hiring theatrical performers.
I'm not here for an interview today. I'm here to find Luo Fu Sheng.
You even dare to mention my older brother's name. I respect you.
But there are many women who are after my older brother in Dongjiang.
If you want to see him, get a number first and join the queue.
I really have something urgent to see him. Where is he?
Luo Cheng.
Tell her to come here.
Come.
What are you doing here?
I need to see you regarding some matter.
How did you know I'm here?
Who doesn't know you in Dongjiang? It's not that difficult to ask around.
You are not stupid but you came at the wrong time.
I'm working. Come, let's drink again.
- Come, Boss Ning. - Bottoms up.
- Bottoms up.
Luo Fu Sheng, I'm here because of Xu Xing Cheng.
- What's wrong with Xing Cheng? - He was arrested because of me. Could you bail him out?
- Who arrested him? - The police.
Police?
Master Xu?
Police...police...
This is serious matter.
Boss Ding, I'm leaving for a while.
Police?
Come, let me give you a toast again.
Boss Ding, we must drink till we drop.
The police and the Hong family don't interfere with each other.
Even if we are powerful,
I wouldn't dare to provoke the police too.
What should we do then?
What should we do?
President Ding, come, let's have a glass.
Come, cheers.
You are very lucky today.
Look.
Do you see that woman in blue?
She's the Police Commissioner's wife.
If you were to get to know her today,
just one word from her and things will be much easier.
Police Commissioner's wife.
Yes, she's the Police Commissioner's wife. Tell her now if you have any problems.
Commissioner?
It's like this. I have a friend
who was arrested by the police because of a misunderstanding.
Could you help him?
Miss, I can understand how you feel
but I'm Young Master Luo's guest today.
I say, if you want to ask for a favor,
shouldn't you tell Young Master Luo to talk to me instead?
Isn't this logical?
The police may be beating Xu Xing Cheng now
but I'm asking this hooligan for help.
What should I do?
Young Master Luo.
Please... help Xu Xing Cheng.
I can help him.
It will depend on your performance.
If you want to hear me sing, I will do it.
Sorry.
Are you okay?
Sorry.
Excellent.
Come.
Lou Fu Sheng, I have already fulfilled your request. Can we go and save Xu Xing Cheng now?
We are drinking.
Luo Fu Sheng!
If you want the police's help, one needs money.
I have the money.
Just this small sum of money?
Stop fooling around. This is not enough to bribe the police.
If you wanted money, why didn't you tell me earlier?
You didn't ask me.
Luo Fu Sheng, release me.
Rotten hooligan.
Why don't we do this?
Let me give you an advice.
Use your body...
sell the most expensive thing on your body.
Perhaps, you may be able to bail Xu Xing Cheng out.
Fu Sheng, you are too bad.
You are scaring the young lady.
You need to take responsibility.
If you scare her to death, you need to take the responsibility.
Stop fooling around. I'm not interested in that.
As for you, don't misunderstand.
What I'm referring to,
it's the necklace on your body.
It's rather chic.
So how? Are you going to sell it?
Perhaps, it's worth a sum of money.
Name your price.
It's not for sale.
Not for sale? Is this your attitude?
If you are not sincere, how do you expect me to help you?
Move aside.
I don't need your help.
Look at how bad you are.
Come, fill it to the brink.
What's wrong? Did you figure it out?
Fu Sheng, you scared her to death.
[Yu Heng Pawn Shop]
Boss. Boss.
Coming.
Miss, it's late. What are you doing here?
Boss, I would like to pawn something.
What's with all the fuss?
What do you have to pawn?
Miss, I'm going to brew a pot of tea. Let's go in and talk.
Come inside.
Tian Ying.
Older brother.
I was running some errand and happened to pass by.
At the same time, I wanted to visit Jiu Sui Hong
and check on his recovery. How is he?
Why isn't Miss Tian Ying here?
I'm going with them to explain the situation.
- Mr Xu. - Tian Ying.
This has nothing to do with you. We can't involve you.
- Tian Ying. - Everything's fine. Don't worry.
- Mr Xu. - Tian Ying.
Young lady, you are pretty.
Go in. Hurry up.
Go in.
Hello. I'm...
Young lady, what is it? Tell us.
Leave.
Young lady, how may I help you?
You are here to make a report, right?
Come.
I'm here. Don't be afraid.
Come, sit down.
I'm fine.
I'm here to bail someone out.
Bail out someone?
Who do you want to bail out?
I'm here to bail out the person whom you arrested this afternoon at Long Fu Theater.
Are you talking about him?
Young lady, I'm here.
I didn't expect you to have a sense of justice.
Come, look at my condition now.
I was beaten up by them.
I only have one last breath now.
What are you saying?
Go back.
Are you referring to him?
No.
I'm bailing out Xu Xing Cheng.
If you have the guts, take me to the police station.
You arrested me and brought me here. What is this?
You can leave.
Yes, Commissioner.
You returned from overseas and didn't even come home.
You mix around with those dubious people every day.
What's wrong? This family doesn't fit you anymore?
What dubious people?
Dad, you know Luo Fu Sheng too.
I've already told you. Either you don't come back here,
or you'll have to ensure that everything is done seamlessly without any loose ends.
People like you, dangling out there every day.
Shouldn't I arrest you and bring you home?
I'm open and upright. I didn't do anything wrong too. Why should I hide?
You are just playing around without any ambitions.
Xu Xing Cheng?
You are here to infuriate me, right?
I knew it only after I was beaten up.
This old tiger's butt can't be touched.
Even if they arrest everyone in Dongjiang,
no one will dare to arrest Xu Xing Cheng.
I remember now. You sing at Long Fu Theater, right?
You are acting with me here now?
Speak. What's your relationship with Big Master Xu?
Big Master Xu?
Why are you pretending? He's the son of our Police Commissioner.
Are you pretending not to know him?
I was almost deceived by your fresh and pure looks.
Is that how all the young ladies are playing the field now? Allow greater latitude now just to have a tighter rein on the men afterwards?
You must said that Xu Xing Cheng is the eldest son of the Police Commissioner?
Then, so to say, he's fine now?
That's right. The whole of Dongjiang may be in trouble but not him.
Come here.
I'm okay now.
- Miss! - Shut up.
Generations of the Xu family have done great tasks.
You should concentrate on more serious things too.
I have arranged a civil officer post for you.
Dad. You distinctly know that
I came back to the country to apply what I have learnt to be a doctor. This is my dream.
Dream? Let me tell you.
In the Xu family,
the official career is the only dream.
There is no other choice.
Stop there.
You came back from overseas. Aren't you going to see your younger sister, Xing Ai?
Ever since you left, her autism has become worst.
She basically didn't talk.
Tian Ying.
Older brother.
So how? I was right. Isn't that so?
This money couldn't save Master Xu.
When I arrived there, he has already left the police station.
What? Left the police station?
Why is there still so much left? Tian Ying, did you pawn the necklace to bail him out?
Older brother, don't panic. Listen to me first.
I definitely pawned the necklace to bail him out but I didn't imagine that
he's the son of the Police Commissioner.
He's such a superior person. You should keep your distance from him.
Why?
You are not in the same world as him. It's not good to provoke the police in Dongjiang.
Even hooligans like them who gave us a hard time, when they meet the police, they will courteous to them.
He's not police.
Tianying, you are inexperienced and unsophisticated. You can't even tell a good guy from a bad one.
I can tell that Xu Xing Cheng don't treat you that innocently. He's not a simple person too.
He's the son of the Police Commissioner. He's not that easy to deal with.
His ability to destroy is definitely stronger than Luo Fu Sheng.
When that time comes, it will be the theatrical troupe who's unlucky.
But older brother, no matter how we see it, Xu Xing Cheng is not bad like the police.
Forget it. Don't think too much about him. Let's trainer harder to make money.
It's late. Rest early.
Ai Ai.
Older brother, you are back.
Did you miss me?
- I miss you very much. - Sit.
After being overseas for study, you have become prettier.
But you are getting heavier now. I can't carry you just like in the past.
Older brother.
Don't be angry. I brought two presents for you today.
Two presents? What are they?
The first present is...
this.
- It's so cute. - Do you like it?
Yes, I like it very much.
I knew that you like kitties.
Thank you, older brother. What's the second present then?
The second present is, I would like to tell you something.
I have already met someone who I like.
Really? I want to listen.
Her name is Tian Ying.
I met her on the first day when I came back from overseas.
I have always been sleeping badly.
You keep disregarding the time, doesn't knock and barge in here. Are you going to let me sleep or not?
You didn't sleep, older brother?
Have I ever slept?
You can't blame me for this. You are an adult and you are still afraid of the dark.
That's why you are staying here in Mei Gao Mei, where there's music and song every night.
If anyone were to find out that the Hong family has such a coward,
wouldn't they be laughing like crazy?
Laughing like crazy? Let me tell you. If this ever leaks out, I'm going to whack your mouth.
What are you holding?
As according to your order, this is recorded live, and a free poster too.
I say, older brother.
You went through so much hassle just to chase after that junior performer.
Why don't you just capture her and everything will be done? This is really not your style.
But older brother, this Tian Ying... let me tell you.
It can't be.
Me? I'm Xu Xing Cheng. "Xu" as in "wish".
Xing as in "many stars" and "Cheng" as in "journey".
Xu Xing Cheng?
You are just like your name, clean and pure
but...
in order not to cause trouble by provocation,
and for the peace of the theatrical troupe,
I have decided not to see you again.
Xu Xing Cheng.
I hope you can forgive me.
