(Lost in 1949)
[Dimsum.My Ver] E09 Lost in 1949 Synced to KoreanDramax.me RAW -♥ Hafiz Adam ♥-
That day,
I mended your kite...
and left it on the table like this.
I wanted to wait for you to come back...
and talk to you before I left.
I kept waiting.
I thought,
perhaps you've gone to look for your friends.
So I kept on waiting...
until the sky turned dark.
Mother would be coming back soon,
so I had to leave.
I was only 17 years old back then.
I didn't want to stay at home.
I didn't want to see mother...
entertaining her fans all the time.
I also didn't want to hear her...
always talking about match-making me...
with some rich man.
You remember when we were young,
we said that we wanted...
to be as free as a kite.
I was too selfish.
I ran away...
with my friends.
without considering that after I was gone,
the responsibility at home...
would be passed to you.
Never had I thought that...
my freedom would hurt you.
I'm sorry, Li Na.
It is my fault.
If I could act like an elder sister,
you wouldn't have to make a living...
at such a young age.
You also wouldn't have...
to stop your studies.
It is my fault.
I owe you so much.
I'm sorry.
It is alright.
Hard times...
will soon be over.
I'm going to be married.
Yun Fu...
Yun Fu will give me happiness.
Li Na.
I won't let you suffer anymore.
I will try my best to make it up...
to you.
I'm willing to do anything.
You...
really want to make it up to me?
Then go to a place...
with me tomorrow.
Let me warn you beforehand,
it doesn't mean that....
the past will be forgiven after you do this.
Tomorrow...
put on...
your best dress.
Where are we going?
Yun Fu's parents want to meet our parents...
before marriage.
But everywhere mother goes,
she behaves like...
a Shaoxing opera actress.
I'm afraid she will be overly merry...
and ruin my marriage.
So...
I hope...
that you can help me...
as a sister.
Tomorrow...
is a big day to me.
If you screw up,
I won't talk to you again for the rest of my life.
I will do my best to help you.
(Zhenning Village)
Going out?
Good luck with your business.
Don't forget to pay your board expenses if you make money.
Alright, sister-in-law.
Brother, what are you looking at?
Where did you get...
this pair of thick woollen socks?
This is what I sell.
I'm the only one selling this in the black market.
I haven't started selling it.
How come you're already wearing one?
I gave a few pairs to Cai A-San.
But how come you have it?
You said you gave some to Cai A-San.
But he sold it to me.
Cai A-San...
claimed that this is made in America,
bragging about how good it is.
So I finally made up my mind to buy it.
Sister-in-law, this is really from America.
One hundred per cent American.
The quality is top grade.
Cai A-San sold it to you?
This son of a gun.
Sister-in-law,
if you want something like this,
just come to me.
This pair of socks...
can pay for the food.
Right, sister-in-law?
Don't ever buy from him again.
This Cai A-San.
Father, mother,
this is my fiancée,
Miss Li Na.
How are you, madam?
Great, great.
This is her sister, Miss Li Wen.
Sir, madam.
Yun Fu,
why are you standing there?
Bring them to the dining hall.
Luncheon will be starting soon.
Yun Fu,
take good care of the two Ms. Fei's.
Li Na, you look so pretty today.
Sister Li Wen, this way.
They seem to be...
from a decent family.
Li Na, both of you, have a seat.
Ms. Huang.
This is Mr. Qiao.
Yun Fu, come over here.
Okay.
I'll be right back.
Make yourself at home...
and have a good chat.
Help me look after them.
Sister, I made fun of this guy...
in the Paramount once.
Will he...
He won't do anything.
Look at him.
It doesn't look like he is up to anything bad.
He won't talk nonsense.
Don't be scared.
Help me keep an eye on him.
No problem.
Come,
have some tea.
Thank you, Madam.
You too.
Madam,
this vase is so beautiful.
This is Dynasty Song Ru Ware Vase...
from Zhonggu, Qingpu District.
Yun Fu's father likes it.
But I don't really understand it.
I like this painting the most.
It is the authentic work of Bada Shanren.
It is not bad, right?
Not bad, not bad.
You can tell...
these 8 painters have pretty good skills.
Li Na is like this.
She is very mischievous.
She likes to make jokes.
Uncle Wu,
Why is the car parked in front of our house?
Young master, I've asked them.
They said that their car broke down,
They're waiting for friends to tow the car.
Yun Fu, come here.
Yun Fu.
Coming.
Let me have the wine.
Uncle Wu,
close the doors.
Sir.
What were you talking about just now?
It seemed so lively.
Miss Fei said...
Bada Shanren is 8 persons.
Li Na,
why are you still...
so fond of making jokes?
Jokes are good.
As the western saying goes,
"Be with someone who makes you laugh."
Father is right.
Be with someone...
who can make you laugh.
Well said, sir.
This is the first time...
in my life...
I got complimented from a diplomat.
Please, take a seat.
Have a seat, madam.
By the way,
I haven't finished my introduction.
Mr. Qiao...
is my classmate.
This is my fiancée,
Fei Li Na.
Miss Fei, nice to meet you.
Mr. Qiao, nice to meet you.
You've never met him before?
Let's deal with the elders first.
Miss Li Wen.
Mother,
they all live in Zhenning Village.
What a coincidence.
Maybe they ran into each other before.
Zhenning Village,
there are many decent people living there.
I met Miss Huang before.
Miss Huang?
Are you not biological sisters?
Why do you have different surnames?
My sister and I,
one of us takes after our father's surname.
the other, our mother's.
It happens in America.
With modern families.
Wives used to take after the husbands' last name.
Many are very open-minded now.
So your mother...
is Madam Lin right?
Your family is even more modern.
Total freedom in choosing your surname.
Father, mother,
you certainly don't know...
how Li Na and I met, right?
You've never mentioned it before.
Sir, Yun Fu and I...
met in a party at school.
I was tap-dancing on the stage.
You know how to tap-dance?
Yes.
Other girls ...
dance only the waltz.
But Li Na was tap-dancing by herself on the stage.
Making sounds with her shoes.
Very charmingly.
Sir, madam, you probably don't know...
American tap dance...
is different from Irish one.
Irish style requires...
you to stand like a blockhead.
But...
American tap dance...
is influenced by jazz.
It emphasizes...
grooving.
A bit like swaying to the music.
Like this.
Doesn't it look nice?
Miss Fei, it is not easy...
that you have to study and learn dancing.
Isn't it stressful studying at Aurora?
It's alright.
I always go out for walks.
Sometimes...
Yun Fu...
comes by for a meal together.
Did your school...
just move to Yangshupu?
Yes.
But I prefer...
the old location...
as it is more quiet.
Miss Li Na,
what do you study at Aurora?
She majors in medicine.
Yun Fu,
let Miss Fei answer for herself.
Then...
what is...
your specialization?
Li Na studies...
she studies pharmacology.
What do you think about...
the combination of...
genetic factors and pharmacology?
Professor Yang Chu Ming...
once spoke to me...
about the medical development.
It was very exciting.
Professor Yang Chu Ming...
Li Jie, have a piece of stuffed toufu.
The filling is made of...
scallop and fish.
Very fresh.
-Taste it. -Alright.
Professor Yang Chu Ming...
is the famous Gray-haired professor...
at Aurora University.
Grey-haired professor,
I've heard of him.
But...
I haven't attended his classes.
That's strange.
You are supposed to attend his class in the first year.
You kicked me.
I also heard...
that he is very talented.
Just that he doesn't like exercising.
He often complains about...
his back pain to me.
It is normal that the elderly...
suffer from back pain.
No, he is a year younger than me.
He should be the youngest professor
at Aurora University.
Didn't you just say...
that all his hair had turned Gray?
This is his nickname.
It has nothing to do with his hair.
He published a paper...
about the research on Pulsatilla Flower,
studying its...
chemical components and pharmacological effects.
We think he is a genius.
Li Jie,
stop talking about research...
and papers.
The dishes are getting cold. Let's eat.
I'm sorry.
Li Na, look.
Mr. Wu can't reach the dishes here.
Sir, please have a shrimp.
Thank you.
No need.
(Xin Xin Foreign Goods) Do you want this?
You want...
What are you worried about?
This is made in America.
Young man, do you have a girlfriend?
Do you smoke?
Let me tell you, light this up...
in front of a girl.
It's cool, right?
Original lighter from America.
Mister, do you want to try it?
American product. I'm the distributor.
It comes with a warranty.
Double insurance, good stuff.
Try it.
Don't move.
Alright, mister.
You, hold this.
Let me tell you, gold and dollars are depreciating.
After a while...
I am telling you, after a while,
I will double the price.
Do you want to buy it?
You want to buy?
-Give me one. -Prepare your money.
Okay, prepare your money.
Queue up.
Money, money.
Just a moment, don't touch it.
I'll give it to you.
Wait, have you paid?
I did, I just paid.
Alright.
I'll give you one.
You have one.
This is yours.
Young lady, you want to buy it too?
You've taken my money.
I've taken your money?
You're buying this for your boyfriend?
Great!
How wonderful if this is US dollars.
Our money has no value.
Yun Fu's eldest uncle...
is the chairman of Si Ye Bank.
His second uncle owns a MSG factory.
He donated an air plane...
to the government during the war.
Both of them have been great help...
and influence to Yun Fu.
Of course,
Yun Fu works very hard too...
to finally achieve...
his current status in the air force.
He will make...
career advancement in the future,
so we have to be careful about picking his partner.
Especially in the air force.
Even the wife of the second lieutenant...
is a rich girl who has studied overseas.
Let alone Yun Fu.
In this circle,
if you don't have much knowledge,
you will be laughed by others.
Madam, it is alright.
I will become a doctor in my own right.
When I did my internship,
they praised me...
for my excellent needle insertion.
It doesn't hurt.
You studied acupuncture?
Combining acupuncture of Chinese medicine...
with pharmacology of the west.
It is a very imaginative research.
Mr. Qiao,
Miss Fei has never studied acupuncture.
The needle insertion she mentioned...
is actually injection.
Miss Fei,
you can't even speak...
the technical terms correctly.
You're so careless.
How can you graduate from medicine school?
Mother.
I think...
you might as well just practice tap dancing.
Madam, what do you mean?
You're being so sarcastic.
Li Na.
I've never studied medicine.
So what?
We can tell.
Since you know about it, why did you keep asking me?
Miss Fei,
If you are not a medical student.
What is your major then?
My profession is dancing.
I am the popular Miss Li Na...
from the Paramount.
Yun Fu,
what kind of woman...
have you brought home?
Sir,
tell me what kind of women...
are you referring to?
Li Na.
Full of nonsense and flaws.
You better get your facts straight.
If it weren't for Yun Fu...
who asked me to come and entertain you,
I couldn't be bothered coming.
In the Bund,
who doesn't know me, Miss Li Na?
I've seen many rich men.
But your kinds are...
no great shakes.
-Li Na. -If you ever come to the Paramount,
I may not welcome you as well.
Yun Fu, take her away.
Mr. Qiao is still having his meal here.
Don't affect our guest.
I'm fine.
Sir, madam,
we should support...
Yun Fu and Miss Fei's marriage.
Because...
dance girls are...
professional women.
They also have the right...
to love and get married.
Shut up.
You have been tricking me.
So that I could make a fool of myself, right?
Are you satisfied now?
Yun Fu.
ask her to apologize to our guest.
There is no need.
So disrespectful.
Li Na.
Li Na, don't go.
You dare to go after her?
Li Na is my fiancée.
I promised to marry her.
If you step out of this house today,
don't ever come back again!
I don't want to come back anyway.
Captain Wu, you should stay at home.
Sir, madam,
I'm sorry.
Li Na! Li Na!
Don't be sad.
It is because of me.
If I could act smarter,
it wouldn't have panned out like this
Sister, say no more.
Did you not see his parents...
You saw his parents,
especially his mother.
She was so mean and ironic.
Why should I put up with her?
Taxi.
Why don't you put your shoes on?
I don't want to.
Don't cry.
(Zhenning Village)
That day in the salon.
Thank you for your help.
Mr. Qiao,
why do you have...
a name card of the Secret Service?
I took it when I was socializing.
I think...
you better keep some distance...
from those people.
You are different from them.
Is it any of your business?
Why do you want to be a busybody?
What's the matter?
Chief,
when we were spying on Wu Yun Fu today,
we found out that his fiancée...
is actually the most popular dancer...
at the Paramount, Fei Li Na.
And Fei Li Na's elder sister...
is Huang Li Wen.
Today, Huang Li Wen visited...
Wu's house...
with her sister.
Looks like Huang Li Wen's mission...
is about to be unravelled.
I've to say I told you so,
it is too much of a coincidence.
It seems like...
Huang Li Wen's return to Shanghai...
is in fact part of the Communist's plan.
The goal...
is to plot a rebellion against her brother-in-law.
Chief,
for Huang Li Wen, shall we...
No, don't cause any unnecessary trouble.
You just continue...
shadowing her.
and don't alert her.
Our main focus is...
spying and tapping on...
Wu Yun Fu.
No matter what Huang Li Wen does,
she will make contact...
with Wu Yun Fu in the end.
There will be a good show...
once they make contact.
(The Paramount)
It's too hard to put your shoes on.
The heels are too high.
This is what a dancer wears.
Li Na.
This is our business.
It doesn't matter what others say.
Why should I tolerate your family's behaviour?
You told me you could handle it,
saying that your father is a diplomat,
your mother specializes in finance.
None of them...
know much about medicine.
In addition, you don't have any relatives...
who is a doctor.
Fine.
I memorized everything as instructed.
And in the end?
Your whole family saw how I made a fool of myself.
You even invited an outsider...
to expose me.
I'm sorry, Li Na.
So many things happened at once.
I didn't know what was going on either.
I didn't expect it too.
I already told my parents...
I must marry you.
I am their only son.
If I insist on doing it.
They won't say no.
Is that true?
I, as a soldier,
swear...
that every sentence I just said...
is true.
Every word is also true.
Please get married to me as soon as possible.
I hope that you will be my wife by the time...
I arrive in Guangzhou.
Why should I...
say yes to you so quickly?
What good will it do to me...
getting married so soon?
There are definitely advantages.
When I become your husband.
I will take care of you and protect you.
I won't let anyone hurt you.
Li Na, the sooner we get married,
the sooner we can leave here.
In the future, you don't have to...
I don't have to do what?
I don't have to be a dancer anymore, right?
Right.
You used to say this.
So you and your parents think the same!
What's wrong with being a dancer?
Do I embarrass you? Are you ashamed of me?
If you're going to be like this, let's just break up.
Stop wasting our time.
You, get out!
Li Na, that's not what I meant. Listen to me.
Let's reason things out.
Cut the crap!
I never want to see you again!
Li Na.
Miss Li Na.
This is from Master Six.
It is a French champagne.
Put it away, I don't want it.
Miss Li Na.
This is a gift from Master Six.
He'd like to invite you...
for a drink and chat with him.
I don't care who Master Six is.
Even if Master Scum-bag invites me, I still won't drink.
Miss Li Na.
Let me repeat.
This is an invitation from Master Six.
It won't take up much of your time.
Get out of my way.
Since I can't make you come with me,
maybe this can.
Master Six.
Miss Li Na...
is indeed very pretty...
but she has a very bad temper.
I don't understand...
why many men are...
obsessed with her.
These kind of women are the attractive ones.
Too bad she is getting married soon.
It doesn't matter.
What's wrong? That doesn't work?
That works.
Cigarettes. Cigarettes.
Come get your cigarettes.
Cigarettes. Cigarettes.
Come get your cigarettes.
Li Na.
Li Na, listen to me.
-Let me take you home. -Taxi.
Li Na!
Li Na.
Chief, have a look at this.
Emerald ring.
The finest stuff from Myanmar.
And also this.
Black pearl cuff button...
produced in the Pacific.
What about this one?
Pure gold abacus,
weighing 2 Jin.
Made by the best craftsman.
How is it?
Not impressive enough.
You think Master Six has seen any less...
gold and treasures than us?
If you show him these things,
he won't give a care.
Right.
That Chu fellow is back again.
We need to build a closer relationship...
with Master Six.
So we have to prepare...
a huge birthday gift for him.
Chief, you are right.
But I'm not that smart.
I really can't think of a better solution.
Miss Li Na.
Master Six is interested...
in her.
Why don't we present her to him?
She is a living human.
How can you just present her to him?
I heard that her fiancé...
is an important man.
We must not act recklessly.
Plan well and take her by strategy.
Right, by strategy.
Chief Jiang, have a banana.
-Does it smell good? -Not good.
It doesn't smell as good as you 2.
Chief, brother Qiao is here.
Chief Jiang.
You are in good health.
Lisa and Anna, excuse us now.
Don't go too far.
What is it, Chief Jiang?
I heard that 2 days ago,
you used Master Six's name card in front of the police.
What happened?
You are so well-informed.
The police were very incompetent.
I had no choice...
but to use Master Six's name card.
It works like magic.
Master Six's name card...
is not something you can use when you are in despair.
Once you use it,
you become his man.
Master Six helped you solved your problem.
It doesn't make sense...
if you don't work for him.
Chief Jiang...
I only used his name card once.
Is it that serious?
Judging from Master Six's personality,
he doesn't like...
others using his name as a cover.
If he finds out,
you will definitely be dead.
Chief Jiang, tell me what should I do?
Shall I return his name card?
You took it. How can you return it?
Just help Master Six to do something.
It is not a difficult job.
Miss Fei Li Na.
Do you see her?
Break her and her fiancé apart for Master Six.
Break the couple apart?
Right, 3 days.
I give you 3 day's time.
Make her single again.
-Jiang... -End of discussion.
Lisa, Anna!
Brother Jiang is coming.
Chief Security Officer, you are just in time.
Li Jie just came back from Nanjing not long ago.
He bought some salted ducks.
You can take one for your wife when you go back home.
Oh no, I can't.
My wife's figure...
is like a salted duck.
She shouldn't be eating it.
Mrs. Qiao,
I'd like to ask you...
about the Peace Bonds.
What is your decision?
How much do you want to buy?
Gui Fen, come here.
Here you go.
Chief Security Officer,
this is the Longjing harvested this year.
If you like it, I'll give you some later...
to take home with you.
Mrs. Qiao,
your family...
is the perfect picture of Zhenning Village.
You are also...
a great example for the women...
in this community.
New year is around the corner.
We should prepare...
more food and clothes for the soldiers...
in the battlefield.
Am I right?
Yes, you are.
But...
Chief Security Officer,
as new year is approaching,
every household is tight on money.
We don't have extra cash...
at the moment.
I understand...
this is the task...
assigned to you by your superior.
You are also in a difficult position, right?
That's right.
Why don't you ask the family living in house No.1?
I heard...
that the madam there...
is very rich.
Moreover,
she is new to Zhenning Village.
She should...
render some support to your work,
right?
Were you referring to Ms. Lin?
Right.
A-Er.
Mother.
You don't have to ask A-Er to prepare meals.
I've ordered 4 steaks.
You are treating us again today?
What is the occasion?
Break-up day.
You broke up with the pilot?
Right.
My Li Na, my good daughter.
You are so good.
You heard it? They broke up.
In fact, this is not coming from me.
Nowadays, the war is getting more intense.
Soldiers won't live long.
Different parties...
are fighting and killing each other.
You can count on no one.
Besides, your Captain Wu...
works in the air force.
He spends more time in the sky...
than on earth.
Don't expect him to take care of the family.
If his plane crashes,
-you can't even find his dead body. -Mother.
Li Na is practising her dance.
I know.
The radio reported...
another plane crash this morning.
I heard...
that it exploded in the sky!
-Mother. -The officers...
were all dead.
You're all so noisy.
Alright. Alright.
The steaks are here.
You...
Miss Li Na.
I was just looking for you.
I give this bouquet to you...
on behalf of a mysterious...
and honourable man.
Please accept it.
Mr. Qiao,
I bet you enjoyed making fun of me the last time, right?
I didn't do it on purpose.
I've apologized to you for what happened last time.
You did it on purpose!
If you didn't expose me.
Wu Yun Fu's parents would've never figured it out.
-Li Na, he is not Mr. Qiao. -Who?
Listen.
You go and tell Wu Yun Fu,
I'm not going to buy any words from anyone.
I won't change my mind...
unless his parents apologized to me in person!
Li Na.
Who is Wu Yun Fu?
She mistook you for someone else.
These flowers, who are they from?
It is confidential.
Could it be someone from the Secret Service?
You are even doing such things...
for them now?
Do you really want to be a part of them?
Who told you it is on...
on behalf of the Secret Service?
If it is not from the Secret Service.
Who else can it be?
Me. Can't it be me?
You?
That's right, I am wooing...
Miss Li Na now.
Please give the flowers...
to her...
and tell her...
that I fell in love with her at first sight.
This is my first move in pursuing her.
I still have many moves.
Captain Wu...
is so generous.
He even bought such nice flowers,
like the Damask rose.
If he didn't work in the air force,
I am totally fine with him.
Don't explain, don't buy me flowers.
What?
The day after tomorrow?
Just go back to Guangzhou as you wish.
We shall never see each other again.
Captain Wu is leaving?
He can go wherever he wants.
Throw the flowers away.
They are quite beautiful...
and fresh.
Just keep them first.
Being in the Jade Pool.
The fairyland.
Drinking wine happily.
Using a Yu dou.
Li Na.
Come in.
The heater in my room is not functioning.
Can I sleep with you tonight?
Sure.
What are you looking for?
I'm looking for a yellow envelope.
I remember putting it in the drawer.
What yellow envelope?
When is the last time you saw it?
It was...
in my hand when I went to Wu's house.
Forget about it.
Is this the one?
I am not attending it.
Sister, you should go.
It is an invitation from the French embassy.
You should go with Captain Wu.
It is him who doesn't want to go.
He will be leaving the day after tomorrow.
Forget it, say no more.
Let's go to sleep.
Isn't this the doll I gave you...
when we were little?
I even stitched your name at the back.
Can't believe you still have it.
It's all covered in my saliva.
You're always like this.
You have a sharp tongue.
But I know...
you cherish your relationships very much.
