[My Story For You]
[Episode 40]
Xiao Shan, you're the only one who doesn't drive.
We can drink.
No, Uncle. I can't have you pouring a drink for me. That's not appropriate.
Xiao Shan, now that your mother is gone, you are like a son to me.
Don't be so courteous. Drink.
Eat.
So who's going to fill me in?
To put it simply, Professor Wei gained a little sister.
Little sister?
From that side.
Xiao Shan, I know this must be eating you up on the inside.
Don't keep it in. Talk to us.
No, I'm doing great.
Fine, bottle it up.
If you won't talk, then I'll tell you what I learned.
Do what you want.
This girl has had a hard life too.
Her father is dead and her mother is remarried.
Nobody looks after her.
She has an older sister who married young.
She was a good student.
She was assigned to a provincial hospital as soon as she graduated.
However, she was unlucky
and was replaced by someone with money and connections.
I personally think she didn't come seeking anything from you.
She just wanted to see you.
That's hard to say. She might have set her sights on my house in the suburbs.
Well, I'm not getting involved.
I've done my part by getting her story.
What do you think?
What else?
She can go back to where she came from. I don't owe her anything.
Chang Gong, there's no more meat. Go get more in the kitchen.
No, don't.
Auntie, I'll go.
Why wouldn't you let me talk? He doesn't know what to do.
Can't I give him a suggestion?
What suggestion?
It's easy for you to give advice when you're not the one in his shoes.
Mom, do you really think he left to get more food?
No matter what, she's his sister.
He's going to check on her. Stay out of this.
Here, eat.
Xiao Shan, I'll help you wash that.
Do you have money for a train ticket back?
I'm not going back.
I only came to see you and then I'll leave.
Before Dad passed away, he told me I had to come see you.
He was afraid of going to hell.
There's still some braised pork in the pot. Get some for yourself.
You're just a worrywart.
You worry about this and then worry about that.
I think she looks like a very nice lady.
Listen to me.
This all depends on what Xiao Shan thinks.
He's always had a soft heart.
He worries more than you do.
Professor, you seem to have a lot of free time. You're not going to school?
Auntie, I'm not going today.
Where are you going? Bringing food to Yao Yao?
Why don't I do it?
I haven't seen her in a while. I miss her.
- No, it's all right. - No, wait!
Let me go. I have nothing better to do than cracking pistachios.
- All right, go on. - I'll go right now.
There have been so many people giving birth in the last two years.
I work in VIP Prenatal Care and there are tons of people in line.
It takes three hours just to listen to the fetal heart monitors.
It's awful.
If you want to get married, you should hurry up
or you won't be able to reserve a bed.
Why are you always talking about these things?
What's up with you today? Did you want to see me? You even delivered food to me.
Can't I just be nice?
I don't believe it. Nobody would get up early if they didn't have to.
I'll give you 10 minutes. I have to do my rounds soon.
Two things.
First, Mei Xin is back.
What for? To get together with you?
As if that's possible. She's now a talented professional overseas.
Is she married?
I didn't ask.
You look like the cat that ate the canary.
Did you secretly do something?
No!
Why would you say that? If you keep this up, I won't talk to you anymore.
Wei Xiao Shan, get this straight.
You're the one who came to me.
I can tell you, but you can't tell anyone
especially not big-mouthed Han Dong.
I haven't seen him in months. There's no danger of doing that.
We nearly did...
That!
Do you think she's not yet married?
Way to go.
Get to the point.
I don't have any point to make.
At 40, one should have no doubts.
You're nearly 40 and you still don't understand life?
Why hesitate?
Ask her directly. That's what I say.
I don't really understand. It's just...
Before we saw each other
I thought there wouldn't be anything to seeing each other again.
But once I saw her again, she--
Next.
Is your hospital hiring new nurses?
Who is it? A coworker's child?
Don't ask. I'll explain it next time. Help me keep an eye out.
Don't just say it. Take it seriously.
I know, Professor!
Bye.
You're a celebrity. Help us with this.
The director of your homeowners association is nepotistic.
He wants to replace our property management firm
with one run by his family.
Last year, he contracted his brother-in-law's company
for the surveillance cameras.
The cameras are blurry and not up to current standards.
Who knows how much money they've pocketed?
He's a corrupt wheeler-dealer stuffing his pockets.
We reported this to the police and also went to the neighborhood committee.
Nothing worked.
We need to unite the homeowners to have him replaced.
Yes, you must help us.
Come here.
Sit here.
Actually, in our house, my wife makes the decisions.
If you need help, you can go to her.
I follow her decisions.
You can carry on.
Excuse me, I need to make a call.
They wanted you to help. Why did you pass it off to me?
I'm just a writer. What can I do?
It's the celebrity effect.
In the eyes of normal people
your fame can call everyone together to have the director replaced.
However, in my opinion, there's nothing you can do.
You're only home about half a day each week.
Homeowners association director?
I bet you don't even know we have a homeowners association.
Our homeowners association can't be relied on.
Our house is actually lucky.
Several houses in the back were robbed but nothing has been done about it.
Oh no, I have to go. We'll talk when I get back.
I haven't even told you about Tang Guo's Go competition yet!
What's the point in talking?
Who knows when you'll be back?
- Xiao Shan. - Why don't you have the AC on?
This isn't my house. I was worried about using too much electricity.
It's okay.
Xiao Shan, you don't have to teach today?
Not today.
So... I'm leaving tomorrow.
Leaving? Where are you going?
To live with a classmate or a relative?
I don't have any classmates in Jinghu.
My dad was on bad terms with all of our relatives.
I'm not in contact with any of them.
I've been looking for housing.
There's a shared basement renting for 300 yuan a month.
Why did you come to Jinghu?
Why didn't you stay in your hometown?
At home?
Dad is gone.
I don't want to stay there anymore.
Come in.
Why are you hugging me?
I've been busy at home, so I haven't had time to see you.
How come you're not asking what happened at home?
You're not a kid anymore. Why are you telling me this?
Stay to have a farewell dinner with me.
Should we order room service or go downstairs?
Farewell dinner? Where are you going?
Are you going to Wuhan to visit your mother?
We'll see each other again. There's no need for a farewell dinner.
I'm mainly in charge of overseas projects.
I only came back to China to give a report. I'm usually overseas.
I'm leaving the day after tomorrow.
Xiao Shan, I come back once a year.
That's basically how it is.
So that means you came back this time for--
It wasn't for you. It was work.
There are a few nice restaurants downstairs.
Do you want Cantonese cuisine, Japanese cuisine, or steak?
So what was yesterday morning?
An impulsive moment.
So what do you want to eat? It's my treat.
No, you can eat on your own.
Boss, Mr. Shen, who you're meeting tomorrow, asked to see you tonight.
I declined, saying that is your personal time.
Call him back and tell him I'll have dinner with him tonight.
I'll head out in five minutes.
Pick a place and send a car to pick me up.
Do it right now.
Okay, right away.
Xiao Shan?
Do you have someone?
Yes.
We've been living together for two years.
Xiao Shan, I was afraid you would get mad so I didn't give it to you.
These are specialties from home.
Xiao Shan, I've always looked up to you. You're the pride of our family.
Hold on.
Stay a few more days.
I've been asking around for a job for you.
A job?
Wait two days to hear back.
If you get a chance, you can stay. If not, you can leave.
You look a lot like Xiao Shan.
Thank you, Yao Yao.
Thank Xiao Ai.
She doesn't owe us anything but she's helped us so much.
Yes, you're right.
No, she's not.
You all keep thinking of me as someone you know through Zhang Chang Gong.
It's been so many years. We're all old friends now.
I remember everybody who lent me money back then.
Look at what a kind person she is.
Yao Yao, the few thousand yuan we chipped in back then really paid off.
Still haven't let it go?
Enough about me.
Take my car.
Go to the airport tomorrow to see her one last time.
Be a gentleman.
What's that for?
I have money and a house.
Even if you have money and go buy a car, you won't get one right this instant.
Cars from reputable brands need to be reserved in advance.
I don't need this.
I'm just as well-off as she is.
You're not doing worse than her, but you lack confidence.
You were the one who was dumped back then.
You're still the one being dumped this time.
You don't understand.
I don't understand?
I still understand more than you do.
Can't you focus on talking? Being on the phone all the time is detestable.
There's a girl who says she wants to go to a concert.
She wants floor tickets.
I'll contact a scalper for her. Give me a second.
A girl? You mean girlfriend?
She's interested in me but I'm not interested in her.
You paid for her?
I'm not short on money. What's the big deal?
Han Dong, if you keep doing things like this, how can they not fall for you?
Has Yao Yao been good lately?
You're one to talk.
You should go see her when you have time.
Go see a doctor while you're at it.
Maybe Yao Yao might be in a good mood and have a meal with you.
I'll drop by when I have time... to see a doctor!
Yes.
It sure isn't easy to see you. What have you been busy with lately?
Busy making money.
There will always be more money to be earned.
That's true.
I see the truth now.
Health is more important. That's why I came in for a physical.
- Did you set it up for me? - Yes.
You're quite well-informed.
Our hospital's health checkup center was just opened two weeks ago.
Your hospital is famous!
My friends all say
this health checkup center is up to current standards.
Of course.
The machines are about the same everywhere
but it's just a bit expensive here.
It's just a drop in the ocean to you though.
You can't say that.
The wealthier one is, the stingier one gets.
I'll take you there.
This whole level is the health checkup center.
The MRI machine is on another level.
You didn't tell me what package you wanted
so I ordered the most comprehensive package.
Every person is paired with a special advisor.
No need for that. I'll be fine with you.
I work in Obstetrics.
Xiao Ou.
Yao Yao.
This is Han Dong. He's going to your area.
Come with me. Your information is downstairs.
I'm going to go.
Let's have lunch together.
Lunch? Obstetrics is swamped from morning to night.
Xiao Shan's sister is working here, right?
Let's have lunch together. Invite Xiao Ai too.
You two can keep us company. I'll treat her to a meal.
I'll do the honor as an older brother.
I was wondering why you suddenly came in for a checkup.
So you're here for the girl.
No, wait. You already met her at my house.
She's staying in my brother's old room.
That was before. We're in the now.
She has a new job now.
All right, I'll check my schedule.
If I can't make it, you two can have some time alone.
Bye.
Chang Gong, stop writing. I'll order some food for you.
Forget it.
I don't feel like eating.
Chang Gong, you should call Mu Zi today.
It's your wedding anniversary--
I know what to write.
Don't talk. Don't interrupt me.
Hello? Tang Guo just fell asleep.
You're not sleeping yet?
No.
Hello, the number you have dialed is currently busy. Please try again later.
The number you have dialed--
Okay.
I'll have a car ready. Let's go together.
Thank you.
[Chang Gong]
Hello? I'm outside Tang Guo's room.
Were you talking to your mom just now?
Yes.
It's nothing. I just wanted to wish you a happy wedding anniversary.
Mu Zi, you have the best snacks. They're all my favorites.
Forget about the food.
I called you over to help me clear up the confusion. Be serious.
I'll do that but I need to eat too.
These dried mangoes are the best.
Be honest. You really can't figure out this male coworker?
You didn't get any warnings or sense anything?
I'm the mother of a six-year-old. Why would I think of that?
It would be awful if he didn't have that intention.
He's a married man who called you in the middle of the night.
You're definitely not jumping to conclusions.
He's also the one who introduced me to Tang Guo's Go teacher
a very famous professional Go player.
He used a very big favor.
Our children are learning Go together.
If I suddenly ignore him
things will become so awkward if he didn't have any other intentions.
Then just keep observing.
Hello.
It's about time. Let's go.
I have a friend who also wants to help me look.
No problem. Let's go.
By the way, I picked strawberries today. I brought some over for you.
You didn't have to. How much did it cost? I'll pay you back.
No need. It's just a box of strawberries.
[Introduction To Go]
What's happening?
The power must have gone out.
Mom, this is the first power outage at our house.
Really? I'm going to take a look. Don't go anywhere.
The streetlights are also out. I guess it really is a power outage.
Use this.
We can't use that all night.
This can last for several hours.
We'll be going to sleep soon.
Oh, right. Use this to call Mu Zi. She's home with Tang Guo.
What if they're having a power outage too? Hurry.
Hello?
Mu Zi, our house is having a power outage. Is your area out too?
We are. You too?
Yes. I'll tell my husband to go over.
No, don't. It's so late. Don't make Dad come here.
You shouldn't either. Save the trouble.
It's okay. We're both coming. Just wait for us.
Wait. I'll call a cab for you. Hold on a moment.
Just wait.
Grandma is coming?
Yes. I'm calling a cab for them.
Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is currently out of the service area.
Please try again later.
Why isn't he picking up?
What happened? Is it a major incident?
It was a massive explosion.
- Where? - An industrial park.
How many injured?
I don't know. I just received the emergency call.
All the injured are firefighters.
I have to go.
[Huaihai Police Station]
A second explosion?
Yes, many firefighters were injured. The situation inside is unclear.
Should we send in some chemical defense troops?
Have Squadron One and Squadron Two ready to set out immediately.
Yes!
Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is currently--
You'd better be safe.
Head Nurse, the ER doesn't have enough staff. They need us there.
- Tell Team One and Team Two to go. - Okay.
That person looks suspicious to me. Could he be a robber?
He's driving such a nice car and looks so handsome. How could he be a robber?
Let's go.
Dad, Mom.
Is Tang Guo still up?
She was so excited to hear you two were coming. She's still up.
Mu Zi, I heard there have been several robberies nearby.
Look at how suspicious that person is. Could he be a robber?
Look, he's leaving after he saw me looking at him.
Dad, Mom, come in.
Make sure to lock the gate.
Is it locked?
Mu Zi, it's just you and Tang Guo at home.
I'm worried. Why don't we call the police?
Mom, he's not a robber.
Who knows? He was staring at the gate the whole time.
He could have been taking advantage of the power outage to break in.
He's my coworker.
Your coworker left without saying anything?
Let's go in.
Captain, how do we tell Liu Qiang's parents?
I'm too ashamed to. You do it.
Fang Jie! Are you injured?
I'm fine.
That's good.
- Xiao Ai-- - Don't say anything.
I came to scrub in. Don't worry.
Xiao Ai.
Don't worry. Everything will be okay.
You've been working all night. Tired?
The hospital I worked at back home is small.
I've never been in such an intense situation.
This doesn't happen often.
Xiao Ai was talking to a firefighter yesterday.
Is that her relative?
Not really.
I'm going to take off. Good work.
Bye, Yao Yao.
Chief Li, your wife is here, rain or shine.
Yes, so cheesy.
You should just admit you're lucky.
All right, I'm taking off.
Get in. I'm starving.
How were things at the hospital last night?
The chiefs of every department were called in.
Many of the injured didn't make it.
It's so sad. They were so young.
Let's go home. I'll make noodles for you.
My mom wants us to go home. Let's have beef noodles down the street.
Are you kidding?
You can't just look someone up. That's against the rules.
Right, Hubby?
Mom really is getting old. She's starting to go astray.
Watch what you're saying.
Mom, what do you suspect about him?
If you suspect him of stealing, I'll report him at the local station.
That's not what I mean. You've both misunderstood.
Yao Yao, let's talk in private.
I'm dead tired. I've been working all night.
All right, just come on.
Go, go.
I couldn't say this in front of your husband.
Doesn't it seem strange to you?
Mom, you like to stretch the truth too much.
I can't fully believe that.
Besides, in this society, even I get harassed sometimes.
Chang Gong and Mu Zi are a loving couple. They should be fine.
Harassed?
He was there in the middle of the night. That's terrifying!
You're right.
I'll find time to talk to Mu Zi alone.
Don't wait. Ask her today.
Mom, we're not kids anymore.
I need to find an appropriate time. We need to preserve our dignity.
- All right. - Don't worry about it.
What's going on? Why are you sighing instead of doing chores?
Do you have something to say to me?
I can't tell you.
If you can't tell me, then don't bring it home.
I handle so many cases at work. Anything you can think of.
Once I come home, I don't speak a word about them.
This isn't the same.
Honey, I suddenly have an idea.
Tell me.
Let's have a child.
What? You don't want to? You won't be the one giving birth.
You really do do whatever comes to mind.
I just suddenly had the thought. At least I'm discussing it with you.
When we first got married, you didn't want children.
After so many years, you tell me you want a child?
Sweetie, you're just kidding, right?
True, you won't have the energy to raise a kid.
That's enough. Go get your beauty sleep. Your dark circles are showing.
No attacks on my appearance!
Okay, no attacks on your appearance.
You're the most beautiful.
But you're old now.
I dare you to say that again.
Enough. I have work to do.
Honey.
What?
I have a question.
If a problem occurs between us
would you want me or my brother to talk to you about it?
You, of course.
The relationship between a married couple is like the quilt that covers us in bed.
You can pull it back and I can pull it back.
Can someone else pull it back? Absolutely not.
Wise.
Xiao Shan, I bought two orders of stewed pork liver.
I'll be right there, Uncle.
My flight is at 10 a.m. today. I'll be waiting for you at the airport.
134 yuan.
Never mind. Drive back.
You're not seeing someone off?
No, go back to the city.
You really want to leave?
Sir, sir!
- Are you getting out or not? - Yes!
I'm sorry. Here you go. Keep the change.
Mei Xin!
I'm sorry. There was traffic.
I thought you weren't going to come.
How could that be? We're such old friends.
Even if we had a fight, I would definitely come see you off.
I'm guessing it'll be years until the next time we see each other.
Isn't this the suitcase I bought for you? You're still using it?
Yes, it's lightweight and handy. I'm used to flying with it.
Okay.
Ms. Mei, after you.
