Episode 27
How about I give you a little rub?
You will feel better after that.
Okay.
Come, move your body forward a bit.
- Is it here? - Yes.
- Yes, yes, yes. - I'm going to exert some pressure.
Go easy on that!
Is this pressure okay?
Tell me if it's too much or too little.
Okay. Okay.
Heavens,
it's true! She is taking care of me.
Mr Cheng,
isn't this the tincture that your daughter said is very useful?
Yes.
I came here specially to give you that.
I've recovered. I don't need it anymore.
How about I try it on you? Okay.
But what about your feet?
Sorry.
I fought too hard just now. My shoes flew off.
Never mind. I'll get them later.
Excuse me,
may I see your sole?
Why?
I'm just worried you're hurt.
I want to teach you how to massage a pressure point.
Okay, I'll like that.
Thank you.
Why are they not here?
What are not there?
Nothing.
Let me just help you massage it.
Mum!
Didn't Ming Tian's family move here?
Why is Uncle Cheng here?
I don't know what's the situation.
Uncle Cheng,
why have you come to our house?
- I... - No.
Just now two people came up to me looking for trouble.
Fortunately Mr Cheng was passing by.
He saved me.
Yes, yes.
That was exactly what happened.
What sort of guy...
dared to come looking for trouble?
I don't know.
He said he wanted to buy my house,
and my noodle stall also.
When I heard that,
I knew he wanted to find trouble with Ming Tian.
Why would he do this?
How would I know?
However, he did give me a business card.
Maybe you can find some clues.
Isn't this the business card of Fang Yu's family?
Senior, where are you going?
Looks like I really am dim-sighted.
I got it wrong.
Hello.
Didn't you just say, you wanted to show me a pressure point?
Yes, that's right.
Come.
Use this tincture,
and press into the arch in the centre of the sole,
at one third the length of the sole.
This is the Yongquan Point.
Massage once in the morning and evening,
for 10 minutes or so at a time,
and you can strengthen your bones and muscles.
You don't have to worry about the old complaint from your fall anymore.
But it wasn't this foot.
It was this one.
Mr Cheng,
are you okay?
I'm fine.
Maybe that tincture contains onions.
It's so touching.
Senior, senior.
What?
Did it cross your mind,
if Ming Tian knew he suffered because of Fang Yu,
he'll be very sad.
Are we supposed to keep this a secret, and let him get bullied?
That's not what I meant.
What did you mean?
I just feel that if we say this, we will make both of them feel bad.
As friends,
shouldn't we care about how they feel?
How can we make them sad?
Won't we sadden our friends and gladden our enemies?
I can't just watch Ming Tian get bullied!
Senior.
Relax. I'm not calling Ming Tian.
Let she who tied the bell take it off.
Let the person who made him suffer handle this.
May I know who you are?
Who are you? How could you just walk in like this?
Sorry. I want to know where's the guy who lived here?
He moved out.
- Moved out? - Yes.
Where to?
I am the landlady, not a rubberneck.
How would I know where he moved?
Come on, I'm going to close up.
Hello.
Song Xiao Mi?
What happened?
Right now?
Okay.
Ma Yi Chen, you didn't hang out with us for some time already.
Come with us.
Go ahead, I'm busy.
What happened to you? You're a changed man.
You're not fighting in the finals.
The vice president election is over. Who are you trying to impress?
Leave him alone. Let's go.
I heard he even asked the vice president for advice.
The vice president only asked him to do basic exercises.
Do you believe that? Are you an idiot?
If I were you,
I will make every day meaningful.
Defeating you is the most meaningful thing for me.
Good.
Come and defeat me.
I'm happy to be the goal in your life.
What is it?
Why did you ask me to come here?
I, Song Xiao Mi,
in accordance with the rules of Zhengze,
challenge Fang Yu.
Sun Hao,
block the door. Don't let anyone in.
Has it come to this?
I've said it before,
if you bully Ming Tian,
I will not forgive you.
I didn't bully him.
Don't ask for trouble.
Shut the crap up.
If Ming Tian and you are not an item,
how could he get hurt so badly?
What happened to him?
Who hurt him?
No more nonsense.
I will teach you a lesson on his behalf.
Song Xiao Mi, are you crazy?
I've tolerated you for a long time.
Same here.
I've been waiting for this fight for a very long time.
You wretched girl.
Let me tell you,
stay away from Ming Tian.
Don't stay in between us again.
The person who should move away from Ming Tian is you.
Ming Tian is homeless and jobless,
all thanks to you.
Impossible. You're talking nonsense.
Am I?
You know deep down that it's true!
What should I do?
They are fighting for real.
I got it.
Senior!
Ya Nan!
Something bad has happened!
What happened?
Go now!
The two have turned against each other.
If you don't go, it'll be too late!
Come on! Let's go.
You and Ming Tian's family backgrounds are worlds apart!
For you, it's just playing house,
but Ming Tian can be deeply impacted.
I'm telling you, I'm serious.
I really like him.
Then I'll rather you are not serious.
The more serious you are, the more you hurt Ming Tian.
I don't care about what you say.
I will not give up.
Okay,
come on!
What are you two doing?
You two gave me one punch and one kick.
I nearly lost my life!
Why can't you just talk this over?
Why must you fight in the red ring?
Sun Hao!
You should mind your own business.
I couldn't defeat any of you.
I could only ask Ya Nan for help.
Song Xiao Mi, tell me,
was what you said about Ming Tian true?
Do you think I made it up?
Please protect Ming Tian.
Fang Yu, Fang Yu.
Song Xiao Mi, what did you say to her?
What happened to Ming Tian?
Grandfather!
Sister, you're back.
Fang Zhou, where's grandfather?
He's downstairs.
Why do you look so upset?
Why do you want to see grandfather?
Have you found out what happened to Ming Tian?
You knew?
Are you helping grandfather to hide it from me?
- No! - Move.
You, move!
Why are you two making so much noise?
Grandfather,
did you send somebody to drive Ming Tian into a corner?
Yes.
I did.
Why did you do that?
Just because I like him,
do you have to use such despicable means to get rid of him?
I talked to him,
and I gave him a chance...
to leave you on his own.
But he didn't listen.
Just because of that,
you have to punish him?
For those who do not know the proper way to act,
and do not know their place,
we should do this.
I have never hated being a Fang so much.
Do you know that by doing this,
you will only strengthen my resolve to be with him?
Xiao Yu,
I know that right now,
you are very angry at me,
but I'm doing this for your own good.
When you fired Uncle Ji,
you said it was for my own good.
You wanted me to be strong,
and not rely on others.
But did you know...
Uncle Ji's departure hurt me a lot.
I have so much regret.
Had he stayed, he wouldn't have died.
Are you going to continue to make me have regrets?
Xiao Yu,
I'm doing this because I'm afraid you'll be hurt.
Looks like now,
I have to tell you the truth.
What do you want to say?
I trust that you know,
Ming Tian's father,
Ming Hai, is dead.
Do you know why he died?
Because of guilt!
Because he killed somebody in the ring!
Ming Tian's father, Ming Hai,
was the person who killed your uncle.
Sister!
Grandfather,
don't you think what you did was too cruel?
Would you rather I am cruel now,
or wait for your sister to find out on her own?
Xiao Zhou,
as a man,
when you handle matters,
indecision will create problems later.
I saw how you were beaten,
and what you did just now.
Did you practice it?
Ming Tian's father, Ming Hai,
was the person who killed your uncle.
Come back later,
the later the better.
The later the truth is revealed,
the better.
Fang Yu!
Are you okay?
On the way here,
Fang Zhou sent me a text,
saying that you had a fight with your grandfather.
I'm fine,
don't worry about me.
I'm already looking for a house.
I should find one in the next few days.
I should have no problem finding a job.
Finding jobs was easy recently.
Fang Yu,
your grandfather is old,
don't get angry with him.
Ming Tian,
I need to ask you something.
Go ahead.
Was your father a boxer?
How did you know?
Then,
did he enter a competition in Macau?
Did he kill someone?
Is the death strike his killer move?
I don't know.
I don't understand,
why are you asking me this all of a sudden?
Is this about your quarrel with your grandpa?
Just answer me!
Yes.
Fang Yu!
Let go.
What happened?
The person whom your father killed...
was my beloved Uncle Ji!
When I was young, by my side,
I had an uncle who loved me.
I didn't dare cry in front of grandfather,
but I cried my heart out to him.
He wasn't with me for long,
but at least he let me know,
at my weakest time,
there was somebody...
to comfort me and encourage me.
When he was in Macau, did he enter a competition,
and killed somebody?
Was the death strike his killer move?
Yes.
Ming Tian's father, Ming Hai,
was the person who killed your uncle.
Uncle Ji was beaten to death...
by Ming Tian's father.
Where should we go today?
Any idea?
I have no money!
What do you mean no money?
I just want to have fun.
Hey, you bumped into somebody!
Careful, sister.
Watch the stairs.
Go take a shower first.
I'll get the medicine.
It's okay,
I'll do it myself.
- Grandfather. - What happened to your sister?
She was robbed by some female bullies.
Fortunately a police car was passing by,
and arrested those girls.
The police notified me to bring my sister home.
Grandfather.
You've seen how she looks like.
Is this what you want to see?
It was so hard for her to find somebody she likes.
If you don't support her, fine.
But why must you use such despicable means?
Shut up.
It's because you helped your sister behind my back,
that she dared to act so wilfully.
The person who killed Ji Gang...
was indeed the father of Ming Tian.
I did not make that statement out of thin air!
Yes, that is a fact,
and we can't do anything about it.
If sister really likes Ming Tian,
then that is a hurdle she must face.
Nobody can help her.
But as a family,
even if we don't support her,
we shouldn't rub salt into her wound.
Grandfather,
since you've already achieved your purpose,
stop then.
Stop hurting her anymore.
Please let Ming Tian go.
At least don't make those three live on the streets.
I'm going back to my room.
- Fang Yu! - Let me go!
What happened?
The person whom your father killed,
was my beloved Uncle Ji!
Fang Yu,
I know that right now I shouldn't be bothering you.
But looking at you leaving like that...
made me very worried.
I'm fine.
But I think,
for the time being,
we should calm down.
Let's not meet up for now.
Okay, I understand.
Take care.
You must be Ma Yi Chen.
Who are you?
I'm asking you a question. Do I know you?
If you come closer I will take action.
Yi Chen,
what happened? How did you get hurt?
I'm not sure.
I went home after class yesterday.
A man blocked me.
He asked for my name,
then he punched me.
Are you badly hurt?
I'm fine. Just a few broken ribs.
He was so ruthless.
Who was he?
It was dark. I couldn't see.
But based on his punches,
he should be a martial artist.
Say,
was someone offended by Ma Yi Chen,
and deliberately provoked him?
No.
If that was the case,
the other party would have introduced himself.
Who could it be?
This never happened before.
Besides, Ma Yi Chen is no pushover.
Xiao Feng, the finals are just around the corner.
You must be attentive.
I'll be your training partner for the next two days.
What did you say?
Are you kidding?
The person who killed Uncle Ji was your father?
Oh dear.
To think that such a coincidence would exist.
Ya Nan,
could you visit Fang Yu for me?
She doesn't want to see me.
Ming Tian,
I will visit her and comfort her.
No problem.
But if you want me to persuade her to let it go,
I'm afraid not even I can do it.
Fang Yu once told me,
she has always taken Uncle Ji's horrible death to heart.
The pain in her heart could never be erased.
She also warned me,
if I learn the death strike from my father,
our friendship is over.
You just said,
your dad knew the death strike too?
This is a unique skill that...
my father's master taught his disciples.
So,
your father and my father should know each other too.
Senior, senior, don't.
Let go!
Senior,
get back to the Taekwondo Club,
and don't look for trouble.
Are you saying that I am a troublemaker?
I don't have to spell everything out. Okay.
Troublemaker.
Fang Yu, Fang Yu!
- Where are you going? - Official business.
What's going on?
Where's Fang Yu?
Song Xiao Mi, aren't you done yet?
Do you want to fight some more?
I'm not here to fight.
I want to see Fang Yu,
and ask her whether the issue I talked about yesterday...
has been resolved.
Yes, it has.
Really?
Really.
Senior,
what's the matter?
Nothing.
Everything is resolved, whether or not they should be.
Don't be a busy body.
Ming Tian, let's go.
Whether or not they should be?
What shouldn't be resolved?
Song Xiao Mi, switch off the lights and lock the door!
Senior, where are you going?
None of your business.
Things that should not be resolved?
Club president!
What did Foodie Nan mean just now?
Which things shouldn't be resolved?
Of what I said yesterday, be it a job or housing,
which one shouldn't be resolved?
She made it sound as if I caused a lot of problems.
Senior,
did you notice Ming Tian's countenance?
It was white as flour.
Something must have happened.
What else could happen?
No way,
did Fang Yu really listen to me and break up with Ming Tian?
Impossible, I am nothing to Fang Yu.
Senior,
do you still want to break them up?
Am I that kind of person?
Come here!
Don't punch my face.
I'm just angry.
Fang Yu knows that she has all the qualifications,
and as such, might hurt Ming Tian.
But she was not alert at all.
In the end something happened to Ming Tian!
I think she doesn't care about Ming Tian at all.
But they are a couple.
So whether or not they care about each other...
can't be determined by us outsiders.
I don't need you to tell me that.
I know it very well.
Ming Tian and I are just fellow students and friends.
Yesterday, I just used this stand...
to fight for justice for Ming Tian.
Why is everyone treating me as a bad person?
How could that be?
You're so good, nobody would think you're bad.
You think too much.
It's mine.
Even you are more popular than me.
It's an observation group I just added.
They're always sending me messages.
What?
What is it?
Senior,
do you remember A Can?
Yes, why?
He died.
He died in the fighting ring.
He died.
So you are the son of my senior Ming Hai!
No wonder every time I saw you,
I felt you looked familiar.
I always wanted to ask you about this!
This is great!
I think my senior wanted me to take care of you.
Don't worry,
Uncle Cheng is here!
I won't let you take care of your brother and sister alone!
Thank you,
but I'm okay, Uncle Cheng.
You are as stubborn as your father.
Among my fellow brothers and sisters,
the most promising one was your father.
Nobody knew that would happen.
Father.
What is it?
Can't you see, Ming Tian is sad?
I won't bring it up anymore.
That was in the past.
I won't mention it again.
Anyway,
you have to inherit your father's legacy,
and become a fighter.
And I, as your uncle, have the responsibility to train you.
How about this,
starting from tomorrow,
come to my boxing gym everyday.
I will teach you...
my master's secret technique,
the death strike.
Father.
What is it? Did I say something wrong?
Uncle Cheng.
I don't want to learn.
Why?
I understand what victory and defeat mean in the ring.
Nobody should blame anybody.
Back then,
father's boxing technique killed somebody,
and our family broke apart because of that.
It also made Fang Yu lose a very important person in her life.
It even affected my relationship with her.
Even if it was father's unique technique,
and a great boxing skill,
rather not saying I don't want to learn it,
you should say I can't forgive.
I'm sorry.
I was a bit emotional.
But I want...
the tragedy to end at me.
It should stop here.
Okay.
If you say so.
I won't force you.
But, Ming Tian,
since you and Fang Yu have the chance to be together,
it means you both are destined to be so.
Maybe Heaven intended...
you two to be together to overcome the grievances of the past generation.
I looked for you all over. So you are hiding here!
Why are you crying?
Do you know Uncle Ji likes to watch you smile?
Uncle Ji wants you to say bye to me while smiling,
okay?
I can't smile.
Come, how about this,
how about we play a game.
Nobody can smile,
whoever smiles first, loses.
The loser has to make a promise to the victor.
Come.
Has the game begun?
Come. 1, 2, 3, start!
You lost.
You must remember,
no matter what happens in the future,
you must face it with a smile.
Understand?
Uncle Ji wants you to be happy forever,
understand?
Yes, we made a deal just now.
The loser has to promise the winner one thing.
Uncle Ji wants you to smile while watching me leave. Okay?
Uncle Ji.
What should I do?
Can you tell me?
My dad tried to convince Ming Tian,
but because of you, he won't learn the death strike.
What are you trying to say?
I'm trying to say,
Ming Tian can give this up for you,
why can't you let go the resentment of the previous generation?
Why must you do this?
As a fighter,
you know better than anyone else,
in the ring,
there's only life and death, no right or wrong.
In my opinion,
what happened to Ming Tian's father back then,
was just bad luck.
Not to mention he was acquitted by the law.
After so many years,
you made Ming Tian shoulder this responsibility.
This is unfair to him.
