This color is too cutesy. It'd be weird on me.
Pul-eeze! I'm Qing Zi. Of course I choose purple. (Zi = purple)
Why must we do this?
Just this once. We've never worn a couple's outfit before.
It feels great.
I want a bubble tea.
We're only getting one. Give us two straws.
Thank you.
Between couples, what else is there to do?
Qing Zi,
It feels like you're a little puppy today.
Why?
When a puppy sees an electrical pole, it wants to pee on it.
To mark its territory.
It feels like you're acting that way today.
You're treating me like an electrical pole.
I don't pee everywhere! You're the one peeing!
I'm telling you, you not only pee on poles, you also shit on them.
Okay, I'm sorry, I'm wrong.
Don't get mad.
I just feel you got a sense of urgency.
Urgently, announcing to the world we're together.
I just...
Do you remember why we are together?
Because of a red umbrella bet.
I know you can't forget Yue so soon,
but that's not important. Can't we... create our own memories?
I'll make a bet with you.
If the next passerby carries a red umbrella,
then we'll go on a date.
Although we began with a bet,
I said I wanted to create memories of our own.
I was serious.
So everything I do today is to create our own memories.
But every day we're together is a memory.
You don't need to create one intentionally.
We... both assume we have countless days.
But what if we don't?
And if we carelessly wasted today,
then tomorrow's memory, wouldn't it be a blank?
"That's Qing Zi and Ahyi. "
"Lovers, must they be so flamboyant?"
I'll take you home.
Hey, didn't I say I'd decide where to go today?
Then... where do you want to go?
My place is really messy.
Am I the first girl to be in this room?
No.
Every once a while, my grandma comes to clean.
I don't have anything here.
I'll go to the grocery. What do you want?
I want...
to spend the night here.
Come in.
Where did you go?
I'm sleepy. - You want to sleep?
Qi Yue,
on my way back
I saw Qing Zi and Yuan Yi wearing a couple's outfit.
They looked sweet.
No, actually, it was more like goosebumpy cute.
Isn't that great?
"Me and Yuan Yi... will probably break up. "
"Because of my dad's job, my whole family is moving. "
"Me and him probably can't continue. "
Can we really?
No. You're shaking. Your face is all pale.
I can do it.
Why? Qing Zi, I don't understand.
Is this another memory you're anxious to create?
I'm very willing.
Stop it.
Don't you want to be with me?
I...
"I'm healthy. Physically capable. "
"My whole body is about to explode. Of course I want to. "
Nothing to worry about.
"Ahmon seems to be exhausted. "
"We... are really very tired. "
"The one feeling he hasn't dealt with yet... "
"is his abandonment issue. "
"These things differ with each person. "
"Besides, that he can rely on me like this,"
"makes me really happy. "
Yuan Yi... you're a good guy.
Shush. Good guy, my ass.
- The number is not in service.
- Please try again later.
Not going home, staying out all night. Will it be okay?
Qing Zi, what's wrong? Let's talk about it. We'll solve it together.
My problem is really big.
My problem is...
my boyfriend is totally not interested in me!
Stop that!
I must not be sexy enough. Not appealing.
You listen up,
good guys have urges, too.
So, don't seduce me.
If you keep up,
I'll...
It's late. Go to sleep.
Can you tell me a bedtime story?
I don't know how to tell a story.
Then go straight to the ending.
Snow white and the prince, what happened in the end?
After the prince rescued Snow White,
they lived happily ever after.
What about... Sleeping Beauty?
Prince kissed Sleeping Beauty awake.
Then
they lived happily ever after.
Cinderella?
Prince found Cinderella,
then they lived happily ever after.
Did the kids really say that?
They... support us marrying.
What I'm most concerned about is your mother.
How do we tell her?
Qi Yue and Ahmon, can they really be together?
They can.
Let's pray for them.
Mom. - Hey, mom.
What's wrong with Xue Wei, what did the doctor say?
Don't worry. Doctor said two days of bed rest will do.
You're too careless. Didn't even know you were pregnant.
She needs to be careful from now on.
Mom... - Xue Wei, lie down.
I don't know what to do to obtain your forgiveness.
Why? Just because of your carelessness?
Because... my daughter, Qi Yue...
and Yoo Hui's son, Ahmon, are in love.
I'm really sorry,
but I don't believe they're wrong.
So...
you think your individual children can be in love,
even marry? - Mom.
If there must be something wrong,
then it's... their choice...
not matching our expectations.
But as long as they're happy, Mom...
They're both kindhearted and considerate children,
so they're mutually attracted
and in love with each other.
Mom... if you'll still allow me to call you mom...
I beg you, please accept their love.
Xue Wei, to be a Jiang woman, you can't be this weak.
Stand up.
I know, by your standards, we're too self-centered.
But I sincerely ask of you,
please accept those of us
who, in other's people eyes,
have messy and complicated relationships.
So, to gain what you consider to be the happiness you deserve,
then you need more than anything to stand tall in front of me.
Mom, what others think I care not a bit.
But I can't disregard your opinion.
Your thoughts will decide if our family is together or split up.
Then...
you should split up.
Mom... Mom...
if I can't have your blessing, then I... I...
My blessing is really so important?
You, the father, are less than your son.
Mom, you mean...? - Ahmon visited me this afternoon.
You think your son would listen to me?
I have someone I like.
Same as before, I know you won't accept her,
but I don't care.
The person I like is...
Qi Yue.
Grandma,
you knew?
More correctly, I suspected.
That's why I arranged for you and Meidi to date.
And I tried to tell Xue Wei to pay closer attention.
So now what?
I should ask you that. Do you think I should accept it?
You're about to become siblings. Can I accept it?
Grandma... although I hated those childhood violin lessons,
one incident left a deep impression on me.
Go on.
I still remember the teacher who taught me violin.
He was to perform at a very important concert.
But, the thing was, whether it was sabotage or not,
before he went on stage, he discovered
that his world-famous violin had been switched.
When he opened the case, inside was a very ordinary violin.
I remember that incident.
That day, I forced you to go to the concert.
Before the performance, we went backstage.
That's when we saw it happen.
At the time, I thought he had to be mortified.
But he actually went on stage and finished the performance.
Using that very ordinary violin.
He said something to me
that I still remember to this day.
He said... it didn't matter if he held a world-famous violin
or an ordinary violin. To him, it wasn't important.
What was important
was the music already in his heart.
Why are you talking about this?
Like with that violin, only the inexperienced would care
whether he held a world-famous violin or an ordinary one.
Similarly,
what's Qi Yue's and my relationship?
Whether it's lovers or siblings,
to me, it's not important.
Because...
no matter how people look at me,
Qi Yue is already in my heart.
Since Ahmon said that,
I couldn't tear his heart out.
Forget it.
Although I don't like your arrangement,
but...
do whatever you want.
Mom.
Thank you for accepting us.
I'm back! Ahmon. Qi Yue. Midnight snack.
Not home?
Ahmon. Yue-Yue.
Uncle, morning. - Yue-Yue, morning.
Breakfast is almost ready. Go wash up.
I'll be right back to help.
Yue-Yue, it's okay.
If Xue Wei wasn't in the hospital, I wouldn't get to cook.
I want to enjoy the joy of cooking.
Do you remember I prefer to use food
to pass the cook's thoughts to the hearts most in need of love?
Get me a towel.
Why didn't you lock the door? When did you come in here?
Unbelievable.
I didn't see anything.
But...
I should've gotten a better look.
You're horny.
I didn't see anything! Let go of me!
Very interesting.
What are you doing?!
These kids, whenever they get a chance, they flirt.
What was our arrangement?
You agreed to restrain yourselves while you're still students.
That was the condition. And what happened?
Xue Wei is in hospital, so I come to visit.
And I see this kind of stuff?! What do you have to say?!
Mom, mom, mom! - What?
Mom, let's call him "Xiao Qiang. " What about that?
Xiaoqiang as in cockroach? (Xiaoqiang is slang for cockroach)
No way. Mom, "Qiang" sounds great, right?
Big brother, Meng, middle brother, Rang,
youngest brother, Xiao Qiang.
Jiang Qiang. If it's a girl, "Qiang" would mean "Rose. "
It's a wonderful name. It will bring wealth.
The due date is next year. We can name it next year.
These two's issues are what we need to discuss!
Dad, more.
You've got a good appetite.
See, a good appetite. He'll grow big and strong like a tree.
You... your whole family, lacks proper manners.
I...
Qing Zi.
Go back with me.
Qing Zi...? - Dad.
Follow me.
Dad, I got class this afternoon.
No need. I already submitted your school withdrawal.
Withdrawal? Why do you need to withdraw?
I... I don't want to.
Qing Zi, let's go. - Uncle.
Our first time meeting. Nice to meet you.
My name is Sang Yuan Yi. I'm Qing Zi's boyfriend.
You didn't come back last night, because you were with this punk?
You...
Uncle, I can understand why you're upset.
But before you get mad, please listen to our explanation.
No need.
You know how I am.
Will you come without a fight, or will you make matters worse?
Wait!
Uncle, Qing Zi did spend the night at my place, but...
I don't want to hear what you did!
We didn't do anything.
Get out of the way. - I can't.
At least, let me sort out why Qing Zi needs to quit school.
You're danger blind.
Young man, want to be a hero?
Assess yourself. Do you have what it takes?
Go.
Ahmon, hurry up, We need to go.
Ahmon!
So slow.
Ahmon?
Hello? Yuan Yi.
Qing Zi is emigrating?
No wonder she was so weird yesterday.
Qing Zi told me she's afraid of her father.
She said, although he's a businessman,
he's also a skilled swordsman.
He's a strict and authoritative father.
So... once he makes a decision, no one can change it.
Apparently so.
Her dad's ruthlessness, I experienced it this morning.
I know Qing Zi doesn't want to leave you,
but she doesn't know...
if she has a choice.
Who let you to use that daydreamy look?
I wasn't.
You're boring. I've got a girlfriend, okay?
She's about to leave you... Yuan Yi.
Ahyi... the other day
I saw you two in a couple's outfit that embarrassed even me.
It took courage to do that humiliating thing.
Because Qing Zi...
you know, girls like that kind of stuff.
But you were smiling.
You were cool. I admit defeat.
But that's a far cry from this present...
dead crow look.
Miss, please eat something.
If you don't want to eat, I'll get you some soup.
Don't mind her.
Dad,
I've often wondered...
if mom were here,
would you be like this?
Grandfather told me, back then, he also opposed you two marrying.
Because you were poor, and not as educated.
So mom, at the time, eloped with you.
Nonsense.
That was only in the beginning.
Eventually, we got your grandfather's approval.
Dad, I saw your pictures.
I remember there were several pictures
with you and mom wearing couple's outfits.
And those were in a type of the most romantic purple.
Was it because mom liked purple best?
What was a guy doing wearing purple?
That was your mom's request.
Dad, I can imagine mom must've really loved you.
I also really wish I could meet the you of back then.
I'm also jealous of mom,
because she once had the gentle you.
Dad,
no matter how big the conflict between us,
I still love you very much.
Like mom, I'll always love you.
"Next week is Ahmon's birthday. "
Qi Yue.
I want to ask you one thing.
Qing Zi and Ahyi, can they be together?
Can they? - I don't know.
That wasn't it. I wanted to ask,
your birthday is coming up, what would you like?
I don't celebrate birthdays.
Please go out with me.
How is it possible
that one rainfall can wash away the shadows and memories?
And why would you want to go out with
someone who carries another person's shadow?
So if it's like this, is it possible?
Rub your hands, and put them on your face. You won't feel cold.
I know you can't forget Qi Yue so soon,
but that's not important.
Can't we... create our own memories?
Your shoes don't fit. Why make yourself to wear them?
I noticed when you fell down.
Relying on others isn't shameful,
especially when he wants you to rely on him.
I want to treasure you, but why aren't you treasuring yourself?
We... both assume we have countless days.
But what if we don't?
And if we carelessly wasted today,
then tomorrow's memory, wouldn't it be a blank?
Mister, who are you? - Qing Zi, I'm here for you.
I don't remember anyone inviting you to our home.
Smarten up. Leave immediately.
I'm here for a reason. I'm leaving with Qing Zi.
What a joke!
I didn't forget you telling me to assess myself. So I'm here.
Such a reckless punk.
Uncle, I know what I'm doing.
I want to tell Qing Zi my feelings haven't changed.
Qing Zi, I want us to be together.
I don't want you to stay here. Please leave with me.
What do you base it on?
You're are only students. You have nothing.
You want to take my daughter? Aren't you a bit naive?
It's not true that I have nothing, Uncle.
I'm like you. We care about Qing Zi.
And love Qing Zi.
Qing Zi, are you confident in us?
I'm confident in us.
I can't let you take her.
So I want to challenge you, using your method,
to prove to you that you can leave her with me.
Yuan Yi!
I know your father is a skilled swordsman,
but if he believes it's only strength that can protect you,
I'm willing to protect you with strength.
You can't. Are you crazy? My dad is exceptional.
He'll beat you to death.
So, to ease his concerns, I must be better than him.
It's the only way.
Young man, superfluous words can only fool girls like Qing Zi.
Do you want to know how you'll end up?
Yuan Yi, have you ever practiced swords?
No. - What about playing around?
Also no. - Not even once?
Not even once.
That's not good. My dad will beat you to death.
Dad, it's not fair for you to fight Yuan Yi.
I'll attack you in any way.
If the wooden sword you're holding
touches any part of my body, then you win.
You attack in any way, and if I touch you, I win?
Correct. I will only attack three times.
If you can take it, and are still able to stand, then I lose.
No. One time.
Okay. Three times.
Yuan Yi, you probably don't know that if my dad hits you once,
all you ribs could fracture.
Second time, your head could split open.
The third time...
No. It's impossible!
My love for you will make impossible possible.
Enough bullshit. Qing Zi, move aside.
Yuan Yi...!
Where's my sword?
My sword!
Forget it! We'll stop fighting!
We never had a chance! You'll get killed!
Are you going to give up?
The only basketball game I ever gave up
was for you.
And now, for you,
I will not give up.
Don't do this.
One more time, and I win.
Stop trying.
It's a battle between men.
In this battle, there are only two endings.
It's me standing
or me lying down.
But no matter which one,
it will be me and your dad
fighting for our beloved Qing Zi... to the very end.
So stop telling me to give up.
The one leaving the battlefield won't be me.
Only one more left.
Now.
Yes! We did it!
I win, so I'm leaving with Xiaoqing.
"Dad, no matter how big the conflict between us,"
"I still love you. "
"Just like mom, I'll always love you. "
