We'll be brothers again in our next life!!
Why does my marriage always end in failure?
For 20 years, I have suffered living without you every day.
If one day, we can no longer find each other,
then let's come here to meet.
He hides his emotions. When he works, he is very organized.
My first impression was not wrong.
Song Jie has pushed me to the very edge.
We can't be together in this life, but I will look forward to the next life.
I hope that we will really last forever.
I know in this lifetime you have only Zhang Hao Tian in your heart.
I don't love you. That's the only reason.
I have always hoped that I could hold you like this one day.

Episode 44
Qiu Yan,
come to a place with me.
I won't go. I'm tired, I want to rest.
Just give me a chance, giving our relationship a last chance?
You...! I-!
Let them.
Qiu Yan.
I've searched for a long time.
Until I've finally found this church for us.
♫How many promises of love♫
♫Leaves just the outline♫
♫Just like the beautiful night sky♫
♫The fireworks after it has flared♫
♫Apart from the loneliness before my eyes♫
♫What else do I have left?♫
Silly, how could you not be able to find me?
I don't care,
if one day really comes when we can't find each other,
let's come here.
This is our secret garden.
Sure, that's a promise.
Promise.
♫Once cried and once hated♫
♫Shrinking in the cold wind♫
♫Once cried and once hated♫
I can give up being Tian Cheng Corporation's Manager
and also stop being your friend.
But, I will never give Qiu Yan to you again.
♫I, who have loved you♫
♫Once cried and once hated♫
To be realistic is what I want.
Slowly, you'll realise that I am the person who loves you the most.
Also, I will always be good to you.
I will never abandon you.
♫Just like the beautiful night sky♫
♫The fireworks after it has flared♫
♫Apart from the loneliness before my eyes♫
♫What else do I have left?♫
♫I picked up my heart again♫
♫And put a lock on love♫
♫The heart is fragile♫
♫Filling the eyes with doubt♫
Qiu Yan,
marry me.
♫Once cried and once hated♫
♫Shrinking in the cold wind♫
Do you still remember?
During my most dangerous time,
the gods still returned you to me.
We've experienced so much, so much things together.
In the end, we moved the gods.
You also told me once,
no matter what,
you're willing to give me your fate,
letting me make the decision in everything,
respecting my plans.
But now,
why do you have to go back on your promise?
I regret it. I take back everything I once said.
Hao Tian, people change.
From now on,
everything between us ends.
Qiu Yan, if you want to reject me,
please give me a reason.
Qiu Yan, why won't you look at me?
Why do you keep avoiding my gaze?
What really happened? Please tell me.
- Did Zi Yang disturb you again? - No.
Fine, I'll tell you.
I don't love you anymore.
This is the reason for everything.
What? Is this reason enough?
You forced me to say that!
This is impossible.
You don't need to disbelieve it, neither is it impossible.
Things that relate to feelings are like this.
When you don't love anymore,
there's no need to for a reason or any explanation.
Actually, you and Tian Xin are the most suitable pair.
I believe you should understand very well,
Tian Xin has always had deep feelings for you.
I hope you two could be together.
What about you?
I...
I have my own talents,
I have my ideals. I want to pursue further studies overseas.
I don't want to be an ordinary working person here.
I don't want to lose myself by binding in a marriage with you!
This is impossible! This is not true! This is not true!
You're lying to me!
It's true. I've already decided to break up with you.
Don't ask why anymore.
Because every reason I tell you
will only hurt you more.
Then why did you agree to marry me in the beginning?
Qiu Yan, I know everything it not as innocent as you say.
What really happened, could you please tell me?
Don't hide it from me.
No matter what it is, we could face it together.
Hao Tian, I've already said everything I want to say.
♫ I'll just accept all of this. ♫
♫ I force myself to say goodbye, but it makes you cry once again, ♫
♫ like your heart has been slowly ripped apart. ♫
♫ I am in debt to you. ♫
From today on, let's not meet again.
I hope everything goes well for you.
♫ There is no chance for me to explain. ♫
♫ The troubles in my heart, ♫
♫ and the self-deprecating blame. ♫
♫ Love will make people break each other's hearts. ♫
♫ Why is it that only after leaving you, ♫
♫ do I want to return to the past? ♫
♫ But love is already too far away from me. ♫
♫ I'll just accept all of this. ♫
♫ I force myself to say goodbye, but it makes you cry once again, ♫
♫ like your heart has been slowly ripped apart. ♫
♫ I am in debt to you. ♫
An Ni, how could you make decisions on your own?
Le Mei was going to be brought out by you,
but you let her be taken away by Lu Feng.
Sister, how could you blame me?
It's because that Lu Feng is too cunning.
With only that mouth of his, he could hypnotise Le Mei thoroughly.
Also, Le Mei would rather believe him than me.
If I was to stop her again, she would probably be yelling for help again.
Yes, yes, yes. How could you be so irresponsible in everything you do and think you're always right?
As long as something happens, it's always other people's fault and never relates to you.
I'm so mad.
Alright, alright. It's not a solution for you to keep blaming An Ni.
Once I think of Le Mei being together with that livestock,
I can't take it.
No, I need to go pick her up.
I'll go with you.
- Let's go. - Okay. - I want to go too!
Even if we have to pull Le Mei back, we must.
- Go, go, go. - Let's go.
Hao Tian? You're back.
Did Qiu Yan change her mind?
- Hao Tian, why aren't you speaking? - Hao Tian.
What's wrong, Hao Tian?
Hao Tian, what happened?
Say something. You're making us stressful.
Qiu Yan.
Our engagement ring...
Qiu Yan returned it to me.
How could this happen?
How could a good fate be ended just like that?
Hao Tian, did you ask what the reason was?
Hao Tian, strengthen up. Don't be so depressed.
Isn't it just a cancelled marriage? Let it cancel then,
what's the big deal?
I'm not as optimistic as you. Why?
Why would she say something like that to me?
Unless she gives me a convincing reason, I will not agree to cancel the marriage.
Can you stop being so stupid?
Gods, do you not have eyes?!
Why do you prank my son and daughter like this?
The one who should marry doesn't,
the one who shouldn't marry wants to regardless.
But, Qiu Yan is such a good girl,
it's impossible for her to go back on her words, right?
Isn't this simple enough?
Women and love,
in the end, it doesn't compare to money.
In the past, she thought he was a limitless stock. In the end, he became a failed stock.
Then she rushed to abandon you for another stock.
Isn't that the case?
You're the stupid one, thinking she had hidden feelings for you.
Enough, An Ni.
I was telling the truth.
Look at how sad Hao Tian is, I'm also sad too. I'm not willing for him to be so sad either.
I'm sure Qiu Yan had something else. She doesn't want me to know, that's why she's like this.
Qiu Yan is not that kind of person, I understand her more than any of you!
Alright. You understand?
Would today have happened if you understands her?
As the saying goes, you only know a person by their face but not their heart. Do you get it?
Enough!
Could you let me have some peace?
Forget me, go find Tian Xin.
I don't believe it.
Qiu Yan, what really happened that you have to be so cruel to me?
For you to say these to me,
I won't believe that you don't love me, no matter what you say!
I don't care whether you believe it or not. I've already decided.
It's impossible.
Everything is impossible.
Everything that I've promise Hao Tian,
the dreams that we were going to make into reality,
there's no chance now.
Qiu Yan! Why did you come?
Why are you crying? Did Zhang Hao Tian bully you?
No, don't guess.
You're already engaged. You now...
That's not right. Zhang Hao Tian must have done something. I'll go ask him.
Zi Yang! Don't go. Can you not be so impulsive?
But I can't just watch Zhang Hao Tian bully you.
I'm begging you, can you not interfere with my issues?!
I love you but you don't accept it.
- Do you not accept the care I give you as a normal friend? - I...
What's wrong?
I'm fine.
Are you really alright? How about I go to the doctor with you?
No need. Song Zi Yang, don't interfere with my issues from now on,
don't waste time on me either.
I am an adult. I can take care of myself.
Mum!
Mum.
- Mum! - Le Mei!
Ming Shan! Hao Tian! Le Mei is back!
Le Mei, you've finally come back.
You've made Dad and Mum worry to death.
Mum.
Le Mei.
Le Mei, where did you go?
You've made everyone worry for you, do you know?
Mum, Brother. I've made you all worry.
Lu Feng! Get out!
- Get out! - Dad! Dad!
- I'm begging you, Dad! Don't push him out anymore. - You...!
- Dad, Mum. - You!
We've already decided,
we'll have the wedding tomorrow.
What?
You child, why are you so disobedient?
Do you have to jump into this fire pit?
You...you just want to make us thoroughly mad.
Dad!
I know...
I know this was a marriage that wouldn't get its blessings from the beginning.
But I truly hope...
I truly hope that I could get your understanding and blessings.
I know. I've done a lot of apologetic things in the past.
But for Le Mei, I'm willing to repent everything.
So, I sincerely ask for Uncle and Auntie to give me a chance.
To let me prove my love to Le Mei, please?
Shut up.
I'm telling you, I, Zhang Ming Shan, will never let my daughter
be with you, you monster!
Mum.
Mum, I'm begging you.
I'm begging you to support me, please?
- Fine, get up. Get up. - No!
If you won't agree, I won't get up.
Brother.
Fine, fine, fine. Let's continue when you get up.
Mum.
Le Mei, mum is worried that if I were to agree,
it would hurt you for the rest of your life, do you know?
Le Mei, how could you be so stupid?
It's impossible for people life Lu Feng to give you happiness. Do you still not get it now?
Brother! I won't give up being together with Lu Feng.
If you tell me to give up Lu Feng,
it's the same as you giving up Sister Qiu Yan!
Brother, when you were with Sister Qiu Yan,
how many obstacles did you go through, how difficult?
Have anyone ever gave you their blessings?
You two have suffered so much,
but you still came together in the end.
Brother, I'm begging you.
I'm begging for you to think about it.
If someone were to break apart you and Sister Qiu Yan, how painful would that be?
Brother, I'm begging you.
I'm begging you to think for my sake from my perspective, please?
Brother, even if you don't support me, don't understand me,
then please don't stop me again!
Hao Tian, I know.
In our lives,
we might not be able to be friends ever again.
But the love I have for Le Mei is true.
And every one of you are the most important people to Li Mei.
So, I hope, tomorrow...
we could get your blessings tomorrow.
I don't agree. I won't ever agree.
You all listen to me also, tomorrow's wedding,
nobody is allowed to go! Did you hear?!
Dad!
If you have to be together with this person,
dad can't stop you. But,
if you want dad to attend your wedding tomorrow,
just give it up!
- Dad! - Ming Shan.
Mum.
Are you looking at Le Mei's pictures?
Since young, I've always treasured Le Mei.
But I really never thought she would have no self-respect.
She wants to get married to that bastard, Lu Feng, no matter what.
Just thinking of Lu Feng hitting her, ruining her,
I just can't let it pass!
Alright. Children grow up and get their own luck.
Perhaps Lu Feng really got moved by Le Mei,
he might really repent and become a better person.
In the future, he will live his days realistically with Le Mei.
Look at what Lu Feng is like now.
He will not change.
But you also saw what Le Mei was like just then.
She was so determined, it's useless no matter what we say.
Say, what else could we do about her?
Lu Feng would even be willing to kill me.
How could I let my daughter marry him?
It's so late, where are you going?
I want to take a walk by myself.
I'll go with you.
I want to get some peace by myself.
Come back early!
Le Mei,
my warmth has never been able to melt your ice cold heart.
In the end, you still chose Lu Feng.
This bitter wine's bitterness
can't even compare to the taste of losing you.
Who is it?
It's me! I'm Zhang Le Mei's father, Zhang Ming Shan!
Uncle? Come in quickly.
Please have a seat.
It's so late, did something happen for you to come find me?
Yao Hui,
although we've only met twice,
but uncle knows, you've always liked Le Mei.
Do you know? Le Mei is going to get married to Lu Feng tomorrow.
They're getting married tomorrow?
Yeah.
So, I rushed here
to beg you to think of a solution.
Le Mei must be saved.
Uncle, I've already used every possible solution.
But Le Mei is faithful in being with Lu Feng.
Of course I'm not content, I also don't want to admit my loss like this.
But I can't control feelings.
I don't exist in Le Mei's heart,
she's unwilling to accept my feelings.
No matter what I do, it's all futile.
Then what to do?
Then should we just watch Le Mei...
be destroyed by Lu Feng?
Uncle, don't be so pessimistic.
Perhaps, it's as Le Mei say, Lu Feng really loves her.
It's just that bystanders are unable to understand or accept his love.
Maybe they're really together.
With Le Mei's kindness and optimism,
it could move Lu Feng.
I know you must be suffering in your heart.
Wine is the best anaesthetic, I'll have two cups with you.
More.
- Here. - Here.
All together,
Le Mei is my only blood and bone.
But since my lawyer license has been nullified,
she has never lived a good day.
But from what I hear from her, you love her a lot.
I have no way of buying anything she wants.
But Le Mei is a very understanding child.
She has never raised these requests to me.
Sometimes, I really hate myself.
In the beginning, why couldn't I make the right choice?
That way,
Le Mei could have been the same as other children,
living a life without worries.
After she grew up,
I also didn't make the most of my responsibility as a father.
When it began,
I shouldn't agree in her relationship with Lu Feng.
But, she got poisoned by Lu Feng,
she can't even save herself from this love.
All of these mistakes were my fault.
Yao Hui,
I really have no way of attending Le Mei's wedding.
Because,
I can't give my own daughter...
to a devil.
I also can't watch the person I love
become somebody else's bride.
Yao Hui,
although you couldn't become my son-in-law,
but I still have to thank you.
For everything you've done for Le Mei.
Hello?
Le Mei, did you sleep well last night?
You said, you're going to take me to the wedding dress shop for my makeup?
Are you talking to Lu Feng on the phone?
Here, let mum speak to him.
Hello?
Lu Feng, you don't need to come.
I will take care of Le Mei. I will prepare everything that needs to be prepared.
Just go to the church at ten o'clock.
Thank you, Auntie.
Mum.
I didn't think you would still be willing to spend time with me.
Silly child.
You're my only daughter.
You're going to get married today.
You're going to leave father, mother,
leave this house.
Could mum not spend time with you?
Mother.
Lu Feng's personality is changing constantly.
Mum is worried that you would suffer.
Mum is more worried,
that you wouldn't dare tell us when you've suffered,
carrying all of the pain by yourself
and swallowing your tears.
But you must remember,
you're not alone.
You have father,
a brother and mother.
We will all support you forever.
So you must come tell us when you're suffering.
You have to tell mum especially.
This will forever your harbour.
Mum, thank you.
You must be well, understood?
You're going to get married. Mum doesn't have anything expensive to give you.
The year when mum got married to dad,
this was my mother's dowry.
Although it's not worth a lot,
but I hope it would stay with you,
so you could give it to your daughter or daughter-in-law.
Mum! I'm not willing to leave you.
Mum isn't willing to leave you either, Le Mei.
Dad, Mum.
Today, I'm going to marry Le Mei.
She's going to be the Lu family's daughter-in-law.
I know you must think,
that your son is unfilial.
But do you know?
I really love Le Mei.
I've already thought it through.
Although Le Mei is Zhang Ming Shan's daughter,
but that's not her fault. She also can't change that truth.
So I hope you could accept her.
But please don't worry, even if Zhang Ming Shan becomes my father-in-law in the future,
I will still avenge you.
Lu Feng, please don't hit Le Mei again. Don't hit Le Mei again!
Uncle?
There are still two more hours until the wedding, you are...?
You should just give up.
I will never let Le Mei marry you!
Uncle, I hope you could understand that I sincerely love Le Mei.
Le Mei is just dumb, she doesn't know anything,
that's why would be possessed by you and hypnotised by your flowery words.
Lu Feng, I will never
hand my daughter to you and let you ruin her life!
Uncle, the hatred between us are between you and I only.
It's entirely different to my love for Le Mei.
I'm telling you, I will marry Le Mei today no matter what.
Fine, I will tell you also,
I will never let you go!
I will never let you destroy my daughter's life's happiness!
Lu Feng! Stand right there!
Stand right there, Lu Feng!
Taxi!
Wait.
Le Mei!
Brother, Aunt.
For you to come attend my wedding, I am very happy and touched.
Le Mei, today is one of your most important days in your life.
As people from your mother's side, of course we have to come give you our blessings.
Just then, you brother also said,
if your father really doesn't come, he will personally hand you to Lu Feng later
and tell him to love you dearly for the rest of your life.
If he can't do that, then our whole family won't let him off.
Le Mei, if you regret it,
it's still in time to cancel the wedding now.
Brother, how could you still say these words now?
I know, it would be hurtful to say this to you now.
But as your brother, what else can I do?
I hope you could seriously consider it.
I don'y need to consider, I won't change my decision.
Le Mei, since the beginning, you're the darling of our family.
This time, you're disregarding our every opposition and marrying Lu Feng.
As a brother, what I can do
is to protect you beside you.
Telling Lu Feng know, there are people supporting you behind you,
and also for him to treat you well in the future,
take care of you well and respect you more.
Thanks, Brother.
You don't need to thank me. I've always felt guilty to you.
This time, I didn't you prepare a marriage present for you.
But no matter what, I hope you're blessed and sincerely hope you would be happy.
Auntie, Aunt, Le Mei.
I didn't get to be your aunt.
Qiu Yan-!
Le Mei, congratulations on your wedding today.
Sister Qiu Yan hopes that this decision of yours is right.
Thank you, Sister Qiu Yan.
But what misunderstanding is there between you and Brother?
Could you please give my Brother another chance?
Don't decide to break it off with him so quickly, please?
Le Mei, you still have the heart to speak for others now?
Some people don't even know what love is.
True love is staying with the man you choose to marry,
that they would stay together even if they're not full or not warm.
That is the great love.
Excuse me, do you know?
Qiu Yan.
I know I'm still in your heart,
I don't believe that what Aunt is saying is true.
I came to attend Le Mei's wedding today.
I don't want to listen to you say these.
Qiu Yan!
Hao Tian, let's go.
Come!
Qiu Yan, auntie believes that you have your own untold pain for doing this.
Sister, don't you forget,
today's protagonist is Le Mei. Why are you talking to her so much?
Hao Tian, let's go.
Let's go!
Sister Qiu Yan.
Hurry!
Hurry, hurry.
Hurry, hurry, hurry! Pass that car in front!
Here!
Are you crazy?! Don't you know that is very dangerous?!
Lu Feng, I'm telling you, you must do as I say and leave Le Mei!
I don't understand. Why do you have to break us apart?
I love Le Mei so much, can't you guys support us?
You-!
Get off!
Lu Feng. Lu Feng! Lu Feng!
Lu Feng, I'm telling you, you must do as I say and leave Le Mei!
