A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES: METEOR GARDEN
EPISODE 33
Give up on Shancai, understand?
-Oh, all right. -What do you mean, "Oh, all right"?
What exactly...
-What did you say again? -I said all right.
I'll give up on Shancai.
Why?
-So I can pursue Shancai? -No.
Do you want to die?
You jerk.
I was already feeling down but you provoked me.
You planned all this to make me admit my feelings.
You think I don't know that?
I wasn't trying to fool you.
You even dare say that. That's what infuriates me the most.
But that's the most interesting part.
Think about it.
You knew I did it on purpose but you still got mad.
-That proves... -Shut up.
...that your temper is really bad.
Isn't that obvious?
You're so annoying.
You're still laughing?
But Si.
When have you started not doing what you're thinking?
Even though we grew up together and knew each other well,
this time,
I was really worried that you were scared.
You don't need to worry about me.
Shancai's the one you should worry about.
It's impossible for you not to know what I'm thinking.
So what?
You're not saying it so Shancai won't know either.
I won't pass along the message anymore.
Change your favorite slogan.
You're no longer the Lei who's not interested in other people's business.
Shancai is not a stranger.
And neither are you.
You're both important to me.
I appreciate your gesture.
But I have to remind you again.
This is all just part of your plan.
I know, you green-eyed monster.
Do you have a problem with that?
What you're worried about won't happen.
I'll leave Shancai to you.
Take good care of her.
Of course.
But I'm telling you.
You're still my friend.
But don't play me anymore.
The weather's so nice today.
It's time for me to go.
Lei, your parting gift is too much.
Yes. You fooled me so badly.
I never knew that pursuing Shancai would have such an impact on you.
Why would it?
But it's strange.
You and Si had such a big fight.
I thought we couldn't be friends anymore.
In the end, Ximen and I were the ones who were fooled.
It's over now. Why are you still talking about it?
I think it was quite fun.
You're such a weirdo.
Is your family situation really bad?
It's all right.
I should go see my family anyway.
-When are you leaving? -My flight is in the afternoon.
Be in touch.
I'm already starting to miss you.
If all goes well, I'll be back soon. You don't have to come to the airport.
Does Shancai know?
Shancai, there are some things that I couldn't tell you in person.
So I sent you this voice message.
You already know right?
I only wanted to make Si face his own feelings.
That's why I decided to pursue you again.
Because I can't think of any other way to help you and Si.
Sorry if it caused you any trouble.
Even though it was just part of my plan, but my concern for you is real.
You know that, right?
I'm going back to Taiwan today.
I won't be back here anytime soon.
Huaze Lei!
Goodbye!
When you feel like crying, do a handstand.
That way, your tears won't fall down.
I'm really grateful...
to you.
You really are a nice guy.
I did those things because I wanted to.
Do you regret it?
I do.
I regret giving up on her so easily.
I regret not holding on a little longer that time.
Shancai, do you get it?
Hold on a little longer.
If you do, a lot of things might end up differently.
But if you miss that opportunity,
you'll regret it your whole life.
QQ VOICE MESSAGE FROM HUAZE LEI
Shancai.
Knowing you was the most interesting thing that has ever happened to me so far.
All this time,
everything we've experienced was so beautiful.
I won't ever forget it.
See you again.
Shancai, goodbye.
Lei.
Thank you for everything you did for me.
Thank you.
It's so hard to face my own feelings.
I see.
Then I'll go ahead.
I told him I'm not leaving anymore.
He knows what I meant, right?
Then why did you get off the bus?
Did I misunderstand that?
Why did you get off the bus?
No.
He doesn't get it.
He's not the type who'd care about people's feelings.
I really need to clearly tell him.
Women are so annoying.
What are you babbling about?
So how are things?
Did you get to see Shancai yesterday?
Yesterday...
What is he trying to say?
I think he's saying, "Something good happened.
He's unhappy."
And,
"He doesn't understand."
It seems Si has acquired more depth of expression
after going to graduate school.
What do you care?
And are you and Shancai
together or not?
Why do you care?
Hey, Si.
Didn't you ask me to come here to think of a plan?
Haven't you settled it with Shancai yet?
There are some things that you don't understand.
Then ask me.
Leave your girl problems to the love expert.
Mr. Love Expert,
let's hear what you have to say.
Women.
If you think of them as a musical instrument,
she's a violin.
You have to accurately control your strength, position, and tone
in order to play the best music.
So what do you think?
Master Ximen.
Even I didn't quite understand it, let alone Si.
Right?
Where's Si?
What are you doing?
Why are you here?
Well...
I have something to tell you.
What is it?
It's not convenient here. Let's go to the rooftop.
I can easily do other things.
But why is love so hard?
What do you want to say to me?
Tell me.
I'm starving.
I should tell him openly. I have to tell him how I really feel.
I want to officially be together with Daoming Si.
Well...
It's...
I...
Goodness. I must tell him that I really like him.
Or else we can't officially be together.
What is it? Say what you want to say.
You're so fierce.
Never mind.
What do you mean? Are you playing with me?
I'm not.
Your voice is too loud.
Your attitude is so bad.
So I couldn't tell you any more.
I really don't get you.
I thought you're with me but then you'll suddenly run away.
I really don't get what you're thinking.
I'm not thinking of anything.
My thoughts are simple.
But I never thought that your thoughts are even simpler.
They are more straightforward.
What are you trying to say?
I'm warning you.
I don't want to hear harsh words.
Do you want to try this bento box?
You made it for me?
It's not some Michelin dish.
I'm not sure if it will suit your taste.
I'll try it.
What's this jellyfish-like thing?
Enoki mushroom bacon wrap.
I see.
Never mind. Don't force yourself.
I know you're used to food made by high-class chefs.
You're not used to these common dishes.
Hey.
I thought you'd start dating Xiaozi.
Xiaozi?
Yes.
Last time,
I saw you two having a good time at the coffee shop.
Are you crazy?
I told you I won't date a girl that I don't like.
Then will you date me?
Are you all right?
How can you say such things so easily?
I didn't just say it easily.
I'm serious.
And...
I hope you can keep it a secret.
Keep what a secret?
About us dating.
Don't tell anyone first.
-Because-- -You want us to date secretly?
That's not what I meant.
We won't keep it a secret forever. Just don't tell anyone for now.
Are you freaking kidding me?
You want me to watch movies, go out, and eat secretly?
What are you thinking?
I want to be together with you.
However,
if your mom finds out,
she'll surely take action again.
I don't want to be separated from you like the last time.
I've had enough.
I've decided not to contact you.
I can't accept it.
You're leaving me because of such a lousy reason.
That's nonsense!
I don't want to go through that again.
I've already made up my mind.
For you, even if I have to leave my family,
even if I'm not Daoming Si anymore,
I'd give up everything for you.
You don't need to do anything.
What choice do I have?
Let's see when they find out.
You can't tell Ximen and Meizuo too.
We're keeping it from them too?
Is that okay?
Then...
I think Si doesn't have the courage yet.
Me too.
I'm not sure what Shancai is thinking.
She thinks too much.
That's right.
They're dating like primary school students.
What is it? Do you have any ideas?
Let's do what Lei couldn't do.
Let's lend Si a helping hand.
Of course.
Wait.
Someone will see us.
There's no one here.
There is.
Near the back. Somebody's there.
Are you part of the Terracotta Army? Where were you unearthed?
You're the Terracotta Army.
Aren't we already dating?
Can't I kiss you?
No.
Why?
If you don't tell me,
I'm not letting you go.
Because...
Because my heart's beating so fast. Because I'm too excited.
Because you're all I think about.
Because you're here in front of me.
I can't breathe. So, no.
Why are you talking like that?
That's how I speak. So what?
Hearing you say those things make me want to...
To...
So this is how it feels to be in love.
It's so unbelievable.
My feelings are overflowing like a dam on the verge of bursting.
Xiaoyou.
-Move these inside. -Sure. Right away.
TALENT'S TEA SHOP
Ximen?
You should ask Shancai to do these things.
She's stronger than you.
Why are you here?
Are you here to buy milk tea or...
I came for you.
Me?
Why?
But I'm a bit busy now.
It's fine.
I can wait for you.
Xiaoyou, are the ten orders of White Jasmine Dew
and 15 orders of Peach Red Royale done?
The customer will be here soon.
Right away.
Aren't you the guy who helped with our sales the last time?
-Sorry for disturbing you. -How could that be? Thank you.
-Are you here for Xiaoyou? -Yes.
She still needs to work for another hour.
It's fine. I can wait for her.
It's okay.
Xiaoyou, leave earlier today.
I'll take care of this.
Can I do that?
Don't let him wait. You can go.
-Thank you, ma'am. -You're welcome.
Am I mistaken?
Who are they? Why are they following me?
Shancai.
Are you all right?
Who were you hiding from?
I've been followed by strange guys.
Come, this way.
Come here.
They're obviously Si's bodyguards.
What do you plan to do? Do you want to tell Si?
I should.
However,
-I'm worried-- -You're worried that Si
would fight with his mom.
Right?
Yes.
Then let's not tell Si for now.
Si loses all reason when it comes to you.
Ximen and I are also afraid he'll be too rash.
It might worsen the situation.
I'm not sure what to do anymore.
Well,
I think you'd be fine for now.
However,
try not to go home first.
They'll surely be back.
Okay.
I'll stay with Xiaoyou for a while.
By the way, why are you in this area?
Xiaoyou's not home.
How do you know?
She's at Ximen's house.
Who told you that?
Is it true?
Ximen told me earlier that Xiaoyou's at his house.
And they're tasting some tea together.
Actually...
It should be all right.
But I think I should tell you.
So that you won't blame me later.
Tasting tea?
They can't do that.
Hello? Xiaoyou. Where are you now?
-Shancai. -Are you at Ximen's house?
Yes. I just arrived at their gate.
Listen to me. Don't go in--
Xiaoyou, what's the matter?
-Come in first. -Okay.
Shancai, I'll talk to you later.
Hey, I...
Take me to Ximen's house.
Success!
Why did you trick Shancai into going to your house?
It's a surprise.
It's not something weird, right?
Xiaoyou, trust me.
You won't harm Shancai. I trust you.
You seem to be in a good mood.
Yes.
I have to keep moving forward.
All right. I'll tell you the truth.
We're trying to help Shancai and Si take their relationship
one step further.
One step further?
I see.
However, if their relationship goes well,
it's not good for your family, right?
You should be worried.
No, it's not like that.
Shancai...
She doesn't tell me what she thinks lately.
Maybe she's just shy.
No.
She'd tell me everything before.
But now,
she just handles everything alone.
I can't help her.
And I even need her to protect me.
I'm such a lousy friend.
But I did a lot of thinking lately.
I hope Shancai can be happy.
Since she likes Daoming Si and Daoming Si likes her too,
then I'll raise both hands in support.
However, your family might get affected.
Doesn't that matter to you?
I'm already an adult. I can help with our family's expenses.
And didn't you see it too?
Shancai was not at the milk tea shop. But I could handle it by myself.
I believe our family can work together and overcome any challenge.
Didn't Shancai do the same?
If she can do it, so can I.
There's nothing I can't do.
You're not the Xiaoyou who used to cry on the street anymore.
You've grown up and become stronger.
The one who made me strong
was you.
After what happened,
I told myself I should change.
You told me I should never look down on myself.
Is that so? What an honor.
You have to find a nice guy to be your boyfriend in the future.
Keep it up.
Ximen.
Why are you here?
I walked past and thought it was just someone who looked like you.
Turns out it's really you.
Are you on a date?
Am I interrupting?
No.
You're not.
By the way, thanks for agreeing about Shancai.
Also, we'll do our best to help your family.
You don't have to worry.
Does she want to have a drink with us?
No. She's not coming.
-Let's go. -Bye.
Where's Xiaoyou?
Wait! Why are you so impatient?
I might be too late!
You're going to break my hand.
Tell me where Ximen and Xiaoyou are.
Master bedroom. Second door on the left.
Does she think she's Xiaoyou's guardian?
She's so easily tricked.
Xiaoyou.
Are you inside?
Xiaoyou.
Hey.
Are they trying to destroy my house?
You're at a bar?
Didn't we agree to meet at your house with Xiaoyou afterward?
Si and Shancai will be locked in all night.
What's the point of being there?
We'll suffer if we wait by their door all night.
Makes sense.
Then I'll join you.
Come over. You're the only one missing here.
Okay. I'll head there now.
Daoming Si?
What's going on?
Ximen and Meizuo kidnapped me.
Did you see Xiaoyou?
No.
Did I go into the wrong room?
Those guys.
Hey!
Open up! Ximen, Meizuo.
Where did you take Xiaoyou?
Hey!
-Stop screaming. -Open the door!
You've been tricked.
What do you mean?
I received a call from Xiaoyou.
-She said she's here-- -So you've been tricked.
You mean...
Xiaoyou worked with Ximen and Meizuo to trick me?
They planned this?
No. I have to find a way out.
That door's the only way out.
-But it's locked. -So we can't go out.
So what do we do?
I don't care. I'm with you anyway.
Be serious. Think of something, okay?
Even if I can think of something, I'm not going out.
Those guys. They should've just told me.
No need to tie me up like that.
In that case,
sorry, I'll tie you back up.
Are you crazy?
I'm not ready yet.
If I give you time to get ready, you'll surely run away again.
He saw through me.
You might not know yet,
but this expression of yours
fascinates me the most.
Shancai.
You're so short.
My neck's about to break.
Who told you to be tall like a giraffe?
Make yourself taller for me, okay?
I'm so nervous already.
How can I do that?
What's there to be nervous about?
Your face is so red.
It might be contagious.
It looks like things might not go smoothly
even if we're together already.
Especially since our situation is not ordinary at all.
Do you think this room is like that wooden mansion in Canada?
Yes. Canada.
At the time,
I thought Xiaoyou went out to see the night view in the snowstorm.
So I went out to find her. Then I got lost.
I almost got eaten by wolves.
It was so scary.
-Then you... -Then what did I do?
I became your savior.
Right?
You always got yourself involved and saved me.
What do you mean I got myself involved?
What I'm trying to say is
I've always been grateful.
No matter how many times it is, I'd go and save you.
Because I really love you.
I can't live without you.
Why do you have that expression again?
I might...
Happiness like this is like standing
on a piece of floating ice in the sea.
It might melt anytime.
Ma'am, the investigative report from Shanghai is here.
Let me see it.
