Hey!
Ahsen.
This is unusual.
It's the first time I've heard you use my name.
Why'd you leave without a word?
No reason. I'm just really late.
My girlfriend's probably anxious.
If you... really have a girlfriend.
Hold on. What's this, you really think I'm not marketable?
You're too marketable.
Caused me... a lot of grief.
This is for you.
This is what I gave Qi Yue.
Filled with memories of you.
I think... you're most qualified to have it.
More like you don't want Qi Yue to have it.
Kind of childish. - So what if it is?
You're very devious. Truth was,
you wanted to steal her from me.
So? - So, I wanted to pummel you. So?
You listen up.
When teacher left Qi Yue with me,
he expected me to take good care of her.
During all these years, I believe
I've lived up to his expectation.
But now
I'm giving her to the person of her choosing;
the person of her liking.
Don't disappoint me...
or I will really pummel you.
You really love to preach.
Didn't you have a date? Hang around,
and your girl might dump you.
Excuse me, your boss?
Thank you.
Make a wish.
Hurry.
What are you doing?
Good. Nothing. Make a wish, make a wish.
Hey! Mom's here.
Sorry. Make a wish. Really, make a wish.
The first day of being 20 years old,
I pulled a prank on the devil.
You're dead!
Don't run.
Stop.
Talking to Ahsen made me think of the past.
You haven't changed since you were little.
You look about the same.
Right. Almost the same.
You're annoying.
Same cuteness.
Very cute.
"It's kind of embarrassing. "
"The person I like and mom looking at the young me. "
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, Qi Yue is already a college student.
Mom.
Is this her dad?
I'm back!!!
Yue-Yue, happy birthday!
This?
I always wanted a daughter so I could
give her a huge teddy bear on her birthday.
Yue-Yue, thank you. Happy birthday.
Uncle, thank you. - A kiss.
"Looking for happiness is why we met each other. "
"We live under the same roof"
"in order to share this small happiness. "
Huh? Ahmon learned to knock?
Hey, you pulled the button off...
my jacket.
What can I do for you?
It's...
I forgot to tell you...
happy birthday.
Beginning this second, it's time for everyone to brainstorm,
and to be creative.
Yali wants Teacher Ahsen to show her sincerity.
But this sincerity, what is it exactly?
Does anyone want instant noodles?
Teacher Ahsen, hurry up. Sincerity, sincerity.
Yali already gave the keys back to you.
Can you think of something quick?
Why am I only remembering now?
One of these isn't mine.
Yali is pretty confused. - No way.
That key is what Yali wants Teacher Ahsen
to solve as the first cipher.
Right... that must be it.
But this key, what does she want you to open?
Why don't we check online?
See what things this shape of key opens. Let's go.
A jewelry box. - No, I think it's a safe.
I think it will open
something that links Yali and Teacher Ahsen.
I got it. - Tell us.
Hurry up.
Yali and I met when we were studying in the US.
She came back to Taiwan a year before me,
but didn't have a permanent address.
So... - So?
If I needed to write to her,
I had to send the letter to a PO Box.
It must be the key for the PO Box.
Then what are we waiting for? Let's go open it
"If you're reading this letter,"
"then at least we have some understanding. "
"It may be a good sign. "
"Within these 24 hours, the rule is:"
"Once every hour, I'll open the mailbox. "
"Within that time period, please put in your sincerity. "
"But please don't try to see me. "
"It's my only request. "
Great. Yali said Teacher's solved the first cipher she set.
It's a good beginning.
People like us may just be able to crack Chuang Yali's cipher.
So, what now?
Yali said she wants Teacher to put his sincerity in there.
What should we do?
Mailbox. Of course it's for receiving letters.
Yali left a letter for you.
Teacher Ahsen, I think you should give her a letter.
Tell her what's in your heart.
Why don't we all write a letter?
We could do a letter per person to rescue Ahsen.
It'd make Yali feel extremely touched.
Yuan Yi!
Why, when helping chase other's girls, do you get so smart?
"Yali, it's Wolf. "
"See how much I sacrifice for you and teacher's love?"
"Please give me some points, if you think I have a good body. "
"And, if you have a younger sister, can you introduce me?"
"Beat him up, and then forgive him. "
"I write this for Teacher Ahsen... sorry, sorry, sorry!
"Teacher Ahsen's last name is Tian. "
"Your last name is Chuang. You two are a great match. "
"Tian Chuang marriage is best. " (Tian Chuang=Country Estate)
"Yali, guys are dumb. "
"They're all love-retards, but they're also cute. "
"Teacher Ahsen is one of the best. "
I swear upon my basketball captain's honor,
guys who play basketball are good to their girlfriends.
The letters we wrote, I wonder if they worked.
Don't know. But whatever we did, we're only afterthoughts.
Teacher Ahsen's letter
is what's critical in influencing Yali.
"Yali, will this letter help me make you stay?"
"I'm not sure at all. "
"At the thought of you leaving,"
"my heart feels like it has a hole. "
"I can only use regret and doubt to fill the hole. "
"As the time ticks away,"
"this heart with it's empty hole, contains only pain,"
"and no other feeling. "
"If there's no tomorrow,"
"then today I would like to tell you,"
"thank you for having loved me. "
"Each day that I lose you,"
"I can only say to the you in my heart. "
"I'm sorry I didn't love you the way you should be loved. "
"Your letters, I got them. "
"But they're not what I wanted. "
What is it? The letter you wrote, and the letters we wrote,
did they help?
What exactly does Yali want?
For someone he likes...
Ahmon dropped this ring.
I think... he probably wants to give it to her.
That! It must be that!
If it was me, I would want that, too.
What is it?
Why don't we try Meidi's chocolate?
It represents the sweetness of love, too.
I can't remember if Yali likes chocolate or not.
I'm terrible.
I didn't realize I was so unaware of her habits and interests.
Yali,
you knew my every habit,
you always went along with me.
In the past,
I liked to sing.
You always listened quietly next to me.
Now I'm thinking,
I don't know
if you liked to listen to me sing,
or if I liked to sing and you were willing to listen.
If you liked to listen to me sing,
this song...
is for you.
You asked me how deeply I love you,
how much I love you
My feeling is real.
My love is real.
Moon represents my heart.
You asked me how deeply I love you,
how much I love you.
My feeling is not changing.
My love is not changing.
Moon represents my heart.
A gentle kiss
already touched my heart.
Only one hour left.
Teacher Ahsen is about to lose it.
What should we do?
Screw the rule.
We should go see Yali for the last hour.
Ask her to stay face-to-face.
If I really can't come up with anything,
what right do I have to ask her to stay?
Teacher Ahsen,
if in the end it's still doesn't work,
then at least you've tried your best.
I don't want this kind of ending.
Is that your basketball spirit?!
This is not the place to talk about basketball.
Stupid.
We still have an hour.
If this were a basketball game, and it was the last minute,
we'd still have a chance to win.
Teacher, you must have forgotten something.
Yali said it, but you didn't do it.
I know what to put in the mailbox!
Good luck. - Good luck!
Lend me your wallet.
Why do you want my wallet?
If it's like what you said,
then replace this picture with mine.
Hello? Yali?
- I finally saw your sincerity.
- Your students are too cute.
Yali said you guys are too cute.
Huh?
Wolf, Yali wants to talk to you.
Hello. - Very sexy.
- I'll lend those interesting pictures to my sister see.
- She doesn't have a boyfriend.
Really? Oh yeah!
Okay.
You must introduce your sister to me.
Okay, bye.
You just hung up the phone.
Yeah. Yali said you've still got 20 minutes.
You should know where to find her.
Said she won't wait if you're late.
Another cipher. She's ruthless.
I'll be picking up my girlfriend.
How did you know to come here?
No milk. One sugar.
Coffee must be drunk at the right temperature
for it to taste right.
Same with people.
Why are you going back to Jiayi?
Before the wedding, your grandma and I
need to formally ask Xiao Wei's family for her hand in marriage.
The practice itself isn't that important.
I thought we could use this opportunity
for the two sides of the families to meet.
It'll be great. Since it's a long weekend, we'll all go.
Me... me too? - Grandma misses you.
I'm not going.
How could you? You have to go.
You're the ones getting married. Don't involve me.
What are you talking about?
They are going to be our relatives.
It's okay. The trip is long and tiring.
If Ahmon doesn't want to go, don't force him.
But, it's rude.
Since, in the future, Ahmon will be your son,
and Yue-Yue's brother,
he should go visit your relatives.
Auntie, it's not about you.
I'm really not interested.
Ahmon... - It's okay.
He doesn't have to go. Smile.
I can't go either.
I already have plans with Qing Zi.
Xue Wei
Sorry.
That kid Ahmon has never known how to deal with adults.
It's okay. Qi Yue can't go, either.
I was afraid you would be disappointed.
Regarding us remarrying,
maybe the kids are not as accepting.
No... our happiness, our kids wouldn't be against it.
For the long weekend
where are you going?
Didn't you say you have plans with Qing Zi?
No plans.
You lied to auntie. You're getting naughty.
Actually I have somewhere I want to go alone.
Where?
I want to visit my dad's grave.
So I don't want them to know.
You think too much.
Maybe.
I'll go with you. I want to visit your dad, too.
But it's pretty far.
No problem.
They're going on a trip by themselves?
Technically, they're going to grandma's to discuss marriage.
And... how long will they be gone?
About 3 days and 2 nights.
What is it?
You'd better be sharp.
Put your best foot forward.
What are you talking about?
You don't get it? They're going on a long trip, right?
And they'll be gone 2 nights, right?
So a big house with only you and Ahmon...
two nights without any interruption!
So... get it?
Enjoy, Qi Yue!
No way.
Is flower tea alright? - Sure, sure.
It's hot. - Thank you
Xue Wei, you two have decided to leave those two kids home?
The betroth process is only symbolic.
The kids aren't interested. It's understandable
That may be true, but...
What is it?
Maybe because I'm old and think too much...
Those two kids...
are about to become siblings in name,
but when you get down to it,
they're not related by blood.
But they get along very well.
I'm afraid they may be getting along too well.
Mom! Why are you worrying about this?
If something did happen, it would too late, Xue Wei.
You're worried, too?
Look, those two kids, with their raging hormones,
are still young.
I fear if they couldn't control themselves, then...
Mom
is this how you see my daughter?
Maybe in comparison to the Jiang family
my family's situation is not ideal,
but Qi Yue's teachings and expectations
are no less than any other child's.
I don't mean anything like that.
I know family background doesn't decide a person's character.
Besides, I really like Qi Yue,
just like I'm happy you're willing to be part of our family.
Then why?
I just think leaving two immature kids home alone...
Mom, please listen seriously to what I have to say.
I taught Qi Yue personally.
I trust her to know how to behave.
And regarding Ahmon,
I've never doubted he is a good kid.
Right... you're right. I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have said those things.
It's alright.
Look, I'm old and confused.
If those two kids didn't get along, then I should worry.
Because they get along so well... I...
that... that's a good thing.
Nothing wrong with that, right?
Check the gas and doors. - I got it
We'll be back day after tomorrow around noon.
Then have fun.
And...
Those two kids with their raging hormones
are still young.
I fear if they couldn't control themselves, then...
Sis! Water's boiling!
Oh! Mom, here's a gift for granny. Have fun. Bye!
"Was the ring from Ahmon?"
It's about time, Xue Wei. We should get going.
Didn't you say you wanted to visit somewhere before we leave?
What is it?
You're awfully quiet. Aren't you feeling well?
Yoo Hui, can we stop in here?
I want to get some flowers.
Hey. What are you doing?
I'm fixing dinner.
Hey, it's 1:30PM, and you're making dinner?
Then why not make Zhongzi to celebrate Duanwu Day? (which is months away.)
You're a pest.
Come here.
Why? - Come here, I said.
Let me take a nap.
Yoo Hui, I asked to come all the way here,
I hope you didn't mind.
No. It's fine.
Xue Wei,
although we've never talked about this,
I would like to take this opportunity
to let you know
I've never thought of comparing myself to the man you loved,
nor replacing anybody.
I just want you to know,
from now on, you can depend on me.
I know. - So...
your feelings, share them with me.
Let me know what's on your mind.
What now?
Elephant leg pillow.
You're mean! Who has elephant legs?
It's comfortable.
You're like a kid.
Tomorrow's weather should be great.
Please take care of our Xue Wei.
In-law, please don't be so formal.
For us to have such a good daughter-in-law as Xue Wei
is our Jiang family's luck.
You're so lucky to marry into such a good family like Jiang.
I... suddenly feel deeply touched.
Since I was little, in other people's eyes,
I've had everything going for me.
I didn't need anything.
I was successful in everything.
It was almost a perfect life.
It may sound strange, but whenever people told me that,
told me I must be happy,
I always felt weird. Why did they say that?
It wasn't until I met Xue Wei that I actually felt
what others referred to as happiness.
I truly feel happy.
Because I have Xue Wei, I truly feel I'm alive.
Happily alive.
What's wrong?
Mom was here.
How do you know?
Because lilies were dad's favorite.
My dad must've brought her.
Dad's feelings and mine are the same.
"Thank you, uncle, whom I've never met. "
"Thank you for bringing such a wonderful gift into this world. "
When Teacher left Qi Yue with me,
he expected me to take good care of her.
During all these years, I believe
I've lived up to his expectation.
But now
I'm giving her to the person of her choosing;
the person of her liking.
"Please don't worry. I'll protect Qi Yue. "
"Carrying on your cut-short wish,"
"I'll use all my power to make her happy. "
Don't be stubborn.
Xue Wei, let us take care of Qi Yue.
You're still young. You still have a long way to go.
You don't need a child dragging on you, dragging you down.
Thank you for your kind intentions,
but... I've decided to live with my daughter.
Along with her father's love,
we'll safeguard her together.
"Mom had always worked hard. "
"For me, by her lonely self, she worked even harder. "
"Finally, someone's come to take care of her. "
"He will make her happy. "
Isn't as cold this way.
Been a while since you've been to the beach?
This summer, the gang and I went to Kending.
Picking up chicks. - Picking up chicks?
The beach was full of hot bikini chicks. Very hot.
Bikini?!
What? It was before I met you.
I want to ask you something.
What do you like about me?
I don't know.
What? Impolite.
"Would a little sweet-talk kill you?"
What about you?
Since you asked, that means you already have an answer.
I don't want to tell you.
You won't say, then I won't.
You say it first, then I'll say it.
Hey!
It's fine if you don't want to.
Okay, I'll say it.
I like everything about you.
Your virtues and your flaws. I like them all.
I even like your flaws.
What flaws do I have? Do tell?
You've got a bunch.
Like a bad temper.
Rude.
Big devil.
Don't run!
I like, when I'm the biggest devil,
you save me.
If my dad was alive, then we'd never have met.
Wrong. We would definitely meet.
We were born destined to meet.
Even without our parents, we still would've met.
Maybe it would've been at a manga rental store.
We'd rented the same manga set, so we met.
Or... at Qing Zi's part-time job.
You'd clumsily spill soda on me,
so I'd be unlucky enough to know you.
Or it might've been at a movie theater.
Your seat being next to mine,
and you fell asleep and drooled on me.
Totally grossing me out.
I would never.
In this world, in any possible corner,
we would meet,
because I would find you.
Only you
can make me right.
You're not from around here.
You better go back soon.
The weather is changing. Storm is coming.
