[The Ex-Man]
Shu Ying
It was pouring heavily on the mountain and the road flooded...
The base station broke down too.
I saw Dai Hai An.
He'll suddenly appear in different places all the time.
You are the most important person in my life.
In one brief night, the views for this video already reached over a million views.
It was definitely all an act.
This is my girlfriend, Li Qin Ai.
[Oh Lonely by Harlem Yu]
♫ Oh Lonely ♫
♫ Hello loneliness you're the one who never left my side ♫
♫ Oh Lonely ♫
♫ I don't need to fake to be young in front of you ♫
♫ Oh oh oh lonely ♫
♫ Nobody likes the game I like to play ♫
♫ Oh lonely ♫
♫ We just pretend to be happy in front of people ♫
♫ This is lonely ♫
♫ The future keeps coming but the past will never pass ♫
♫ I have no enemy, but I have no strength to fight ♫
♫ The reality is always so real ♫
♫ Oh lonely ♫
♫ I took care of the world but never myself ♫
♫ Oh lonely ♫
♫ You can't fill up the loss with what you have ♫
[Episode 4: Seek Love or Propose]
Hey, what a waste.
This is the customer that made the reservation. You must know him, right?
He appears on TV often, Dai Hai An.
This is my girlfriend, Li Qin Ai.
I have to use the restroom.
Food's almost ready. Take a seat first.

Subtitles and Segments brought to you by The Ex-Man​
Are you okay?
Are you hungry?
I'll make a bowl of noodles for you. There happened to be your favorite soup today.
Alright?
Are you okay?
You're really not going to talk to me?
You're the only person that sees me in the whole world. If you don't talk to me, I'll be really bored.
Li Qin Ai.
Beloved? Qin Ai!
Qin Ai...
Here, noodles. Eat it while it's still hot.
What are you doing?
I'm eating cake.
It's already smashed. You're still eating it?
You especially bought this. How can I not eat it?
It's already smashed. It looks different now.
It looks different on the outside, but the inside is still the same.
- This was your thought. - No, no! I already said to not eat it!
I'm tired today. I'll go first.
What? It's so late already.
I came to see Qiqi.
Come in. He's asleep so be careful.
Hey, why were you being so mean just now?
Did you like the me from earlier?
What did you think I went to find you for?
Did I want to say something? I don't think so.
Let me ask you, is your boyfriend angry?
Or else if he clearly knows about our relationship,
why did he pretend he didn't know?
Li Qin Ai. Answer me, Li Qin Ai.
Why do I have to answer you?
Who are you? Are you Dai Hai An? No, you're not. You're nothing at all.
I am.
The person from earlier is Dai Hai An. You're not. Do you understand?
Also, the "him" that you speak of,
His name is Zhou Li Yang. He's my current boyfriend!
Then why do you like him? He's completely different from me.
Yes, he's completely different from you.
Do you get it? It's because he's completely different from you. That's his greatest strength.
Thank you, sir. Here's your receipt.
Take care. Thank you...
Miss, would you like me to reheat your noodle soup?
Next time, please finish eating first before working. Careful, it's hot.
I'd like my bill.
No need. It's on me today.
I can't let you do that.
You're still working late at night. Being tortured by your boss is too pitiful.
Let me treat you. Alright?
I really can't. Plus, I also wasted a bowl of noodles earlier.
That's okay. If you can't finish work, then just drop by often.
Alright then.
So how should I address you?
My family name is Li. Li as in "dawn." (T/N: Dawn = Li Ming)
Ms. Li.
Oh, my name is Li Qin Ai.
Yeah, it's the same as dear/beloved.
Since childhood, everyone
always calls me "beloved" and laughs at me. I'm used to it.
I don't mean that. What I want to say is "Li," "Qin," "Ai."
Li Qin-Ai probably has a lot of love issues that need to be sorted out. (T/N: Li Qin = sort out, Ai = love)
Oh, I currently don't have this issue because I'm single.
- Oh, I was joking. - That's okay.
So...
Thank you. Bye-bye.
Bye.
May I ask...?
Let me help you.
Why does it say "temporarily closed" outside? Are you moving?
No, it's just that this place is closing down today.
Why? The business isn't doing poorly.
Did you know the boss here was a five-star chef?
He just wanted to open a restaurant that caters to everyone.
Now he can almost say that the goal of the first stage
has been accomplished.
So, we both want to move to the next stage.
What do you mean?
Long story.
Then take your time. I'll listen.
Alright.
I never told you.
I actually studied architecture and even opened a design firm later on.
Actually, in the beginning, my company was in Los Angeles.
And because I wanted to take on some large-scale international projects, I started flying back and forth.
And then I realized that Asia's market has a greater need and faster growth.
So I went and built my company in Singapore.
Maybe it's because of my experience with Chinese and American companies, so it operated quite well.
Singapore?
Starting from there is still a lot of hard work.
It's wasn't. I was actually pretty fortunate.
You see, I left the USA and came to Asia. Actually,
everything went quite well. You see, my company is on a very stable track.
I basically don't have to supervise it. My younger brother is responsible for managing most affairs.
That's weird. You said you studied design, architecture.
But you're a chef. Isn't that a huge jump?
You know, after my family immigrated to the U.S.,
we actually managed a Taiwanese restaurant.
I started helping out since I was young. Gradually, I realized that
making food can fill someone's stomach up.
It can warm someone's heart. It gives people the energy to live on.
Actually what I am doing now is for this simple but genuine dream.
I don't need complicated rituals in those fancy restaurants.
I want to find the most direct relationship between people and food.
You know restaurants in Taiwan are very diverse,
so I decided to come back and take a look.
I happened to meet this chef who is recruiting people.
I find that our beliefs echo each other.
So, I decided to start from here.
Qin Ai, I want to settle down here.
Settle down?
I want to open a restaurant without menu.
I hope someone can show up. I want her to know
that when she needs me, she knows where she can find me.
I want to tell her wherever she goes,
whenever she turns around, I will be there. Don't be scared.
If she's willing
I hope she can come to my restaurant every day.
I will take care of her every meal.
In love, every time we make decisions,
we have full confidence.
We thought we made the right decisions.
Every time we believe this will be the last time.
So annoying.
Did I do something wrong?
Why do you have to follow me?
You are such a pain!
I'm warning you! Don't talk to me anymore!
What's wrong with her?
Don't tell me she brought back evil spirits from the car accident?
♫ I love because I exist ♫
♫ Oh lonely ♫
Hey, I want to ask you.
Do you think Qing Ai is a bit strange lately?
Maybe she is too tired.
When you were in the hospital yesterday,
did the doctor say something about the extravasated blood in her brain?
The doctor said she's fine.
Really?
Now that's even worse.
Worse? What happened?
No... Do you think last time in the car accident,
was she haunted by something evil?
Recently, she has low energy and talks to herself, which is quite strange.
Speak to herself? I don't see that.
I am sorry about yesterday.
No problem. It's okay.
Don't you want to say something? I acted so unusual for me.
If you want to talk, we can talk. If you don't want to, I won't force you either.
Why did you pretend that you don't know Dai Hai An?
Does it matter to him whether I know him or not?
Or is this important to you?
Never mind. It's okay, that's all.
Qing Ai.
I am sorry for my attitude just now.
I pretended not to know him because I didn't want to see your interaction with him.
He and I have already finished, you know this.
I know that, but I still cannot face it.
Even if you just said long time no see to him in front me, I will still get jealous.
Li Yang...
Every time I see you two together, it reminds me.
It reminds me that I was not with you in some parts of your life.
I feel powerless.
If I know he exists in your life, I would rather
pretend you and him are strangers.
I get it now.
I will go to work.
[Dollars Lab]
Wow!
Hello, congrats, our Dollar Lab is now officially in operation.
What is this?
A gift from the manufacturer. Everyone gets one.
Pass this down...
- Here you are. - Pass it down...
The manufacturer wants us to drink more tea to stay energetic,
so that we can have an eye on you so you won't disappear again.
That really makes sense.
Okay, we can take this as wine. Cheers!
- Congrats, everyone— - Wait... don't you want to hear the chief supervisor say something?
We don't need that considering you have already said a lot.
I agree, as long as you behave yourself from now on.
Director, why are you also that cold?
IT Department Manager, what do you think?
I want to hear what boss has to say.
That's why I love you. How about I promote you to chief supervisor?
Is there a difference? The management level only has us four.
Shiny, Shiny! Sometimes I think you are too direct and honest,
but these are merits and I like them.
Okay, I just want to tell everyone.
Even though Dollars Lab is managed by me and Shu Ying on paper,
but actually, it is owned by our team of four.
What is different now is that our relationship with the company is closer and more important.
So, we share the good and bad of PChome's future.
Freedom and risks co-exist.
Even though I am not sure what will happen next,
I am certain about one thing.
What we'll do next will be very interesting.
Interesting.
Let's make a toast to "interesting!"
Let's keep it up.
These are the key companies we will collaborate with this season.
The next step is to help those brands meet their expected sales volumes.
Turn on the lights.
So, those products mainly cater to female consumers?
Yes.
Then this can go with a one-day delivery activity.
That is my original plan. Unless...
Do you have any other ideas?
Me?
Yeah. When you disappeared before,
I designed a one-day delivery activity to promote these products, now since you have been so kind to return,
I just want to ask if you have other suggestions.
No comments, you are the boss here.
Okay, then that's settled then.
First, I will need to shoot an advertisement for the lab.
I have come up with the slogan: decide to give you the best.
I will send you the short video's script later.
Shan Ling will be responsible for the actors and locations.
Sheng Ren, help me contact companies and ask about the samples of those products for filming.
- Okay. - Hai An and I will take care of everything else.
What?
What are you and I responsible for?
The one-day delivery guy.
I am thinking, who should the delivery guy be
in order to have the most efficiency but lowest budget?
That...
Nothing.
Adjust the front and rear part of DV?
Where?
Near the switch.
Where is the switch?
The switch, s-w-i-c-h!
Did you miss a letter "t"?
Are you insulting me?
No, no.
T is very good, I love T.
T is really good, right.
Haven't you used a camera before?
I have, of course.
Then it is just like the camera. Just remember the essential buttons.
They are different, okay?
Where is the difference?
All the buttons of a camera are flat.
What do you mean by buttons being flat?
Don't you know?
Look? Right?
You just need a click. Then you can take photos.
Tell you what, I can also photoshop here.
Let me take a photo of you.
Let's take a selfie.
Now, I will edit the photo.
- Do you think it is appropriate to take a picture of me shaving my legs at work? - I'll edit it out for you.
Please make my legs longer.
- Sure, that is my knack. - I can hear you guys talk all the way from there.
Help me. She...
Older Sister Qin Ai, can you go do street interviews with me?
What?
I don't know how to use this equipment and there's a lot of stuff...
I'm really going to hit you.
Please, Older Sister Qin Ai, I know you are the best.
You won't refuse me for sure.
I won't say no of course.
But you are also very skinny and can't carry all that stuff...
Is this very hard to use?
Here comes a couple, go ask them if they want to show on TV.
Okay, hold this for me, I'll go.
After 30 years old, What's the most important characteristic you look for in someone you're marrying?
I think it is the financial base.
I think she has to be able to care for a family. Can't play a lot.
Also, the annual salary has to exceed NT$1 million.
She also has to share family expenses with me.
Do we have to get married? it is also sweet just to stay in a relationship.
Why should we get married and ask for troubles?
Being pretty is very important, but she can't have had plastic surgery.
Also, we should have common topics. Otherwise, we can't spend our whole lives together.
Getting married at 30 years old? That's too early for me to think about it.
Do we have to get married? if we don't want children, I think it's ok to not get married.
Okay, thank you.
Thank you for your time.
No problem, I work at a sales counter inside.
This is a sample of our black rose serum.
Do you want to try it for free?
Okay! Thank you so much!
- Do you want one as well? - I'm good, thanks though.
Older Sister Qin Ai, you don't want it? Can I have this?
- Of course. - Thank you!
You're welcome to try samples at our counter, we are on the first floor.
- Of course. - Welcome...
Older Sister Qin Ai, can we go and try some skin care products?
Our interview is only half finished!
But we can interview in their store.
And those people are so nice, I believe they will let us.
Please...
Okay, we can go interview them.
This whitening cream can be used to
make your skin look smoother and bright.
This series is quite popular among our products.
- Sure, get one for me. Thank you. - Thank you.
Were you serious just now?
"Not serious" is your thing.
When have I joked with you?
Give me a break. Don't do this.
How about I take care of Qiqi for you for one week? Two weeks?
Didn't you say that you wanted me to take charge? Now you keep nagging and affecting my decisions.
You have to shoot the short video ad and be the one-day delivery guy.
Don't do this to me.
What did I do? This is the first project since our Dollars Lab was set up.
If I don't use your fame now, then when should I?
♫ I love because I exist ♫
♫ Oh Lonely ♫
Will you use all those samples?
Of course, they will come in handy when I travel or go abroad,
and we should try different things.
You will realize when you reach 30
which products suit your skin type.
Also, since you already know what your habits are and what you like, there's no need to try multiple things.
Will that happen? I don't believe that.
I think skin care is like falling in love.
You have to try more so that you won't make mistakes.
Plus, how do you know your choices from before
will still suit you after a certain period of time? Right?
Look! It's here.
Wait, Older Sister Qin Ai, turn on the DV first.
I want to record their reactions directly.
Sure.
Hello, I want to know if you want to accept our interview...
Why are you here?
Didn't you go on a business trip? Who is she?
I'm his girlfriend. Who are you?
Girlfriend?
- Watch your hands! - I'm his girlfriend!
- Xiao Mei, don't do this. - Do what?
- Xiao Mei, don't act like this. - Are you protecting her now?
Don't push him.
Jerk!
What are you?
Let's can we talk about this later.
- Who do you think you are. - It's okay.
Stop pulling me!
Stop pulling me...
I'm your girlfriend! I want to break up!
Why did you do this to me?
- Is Qiqi asleep? - Yes, do you have anything to drink?
Yes.
Here.
So nostalgic?
Today is a time for nostalgia. Don't you think so?
The taste is still the same, just as before.
Yes, didn't you always like drinking this?
Really? I forget.
You forget everything. I remember everything for you.
Some things will stay the same for decades.
I don't know why, some things
change before you even notice.
It's weird you're talk in such a philosophical way today.
The Dai Hai An I know can't study.
What's the point of reading those textbooks from high school?
Sometimes I also have the sorrows of Young Werther, okay?
Sorrow of Young Werther, such an old expression.
Only you would use it as a metaphor.
You know me.
Why didn't you let her know that you were there?
I don't know.
I didn't think it was necessary to disturb them in that type of situation.
In today's situation, it didn't really matter if you were disturbing them.
I don't know why I felt kind of unfamiliar when I saw her today.
She didn't look like the Li Qin Ai I knew before.
Really? I don't think she changed a bit.
Her appearance didn't change.
I am not talking about appearance, I mean the feeling she gave me.
She acted so calmly in such a messy condition today.
Unlike the Li Qin Ai I know before.
Everyone grows up. Who will stay the same forever?
I think you and I haven't changed much.
Maybe because we see each other every day and cannot notice the changes.
That makes sense.
It has been so many years. I don't know what she is doing.
If you didn't break up back then,
what do you think it'd be like now?
Will it be like you and me?
Of course, it won't.
We are always good friends. But she and I...
Let me have a bite.
Hey, don't have such a big bite. You're gonna finish it.
- You can have mine. - Peanuts and cheese flavor sounds weird.
Nonsense, it's super tasty.
- Look. - No, I don't want it.
- Hey - Mm?
Let's go watch a movie later, okay?
Later? I can't, I have to go home later.
So soon?
I want to listen to radio.
It won't be a big deal to skip only once.
You don't understand.
Today is Friday.
Anyway, I have to listen to the radio.
Gao Jianlong is at bat.
Strikes out, the competition is over. It's halftime. The Uni-President Lions team
is led by Pan Junlong...
Hi, can I listen to your radio? - leads 6-0 against the Fubon Guardians.
- Thanks. - We'll be right back.
Dear friends, what kind of troubles do you have today?
First one is Pinky from Taipei. She said, "Teacher Lucita",
my parents keep fighting. Recently, my father even moved out.
I'm thinking if they can be together more often,
their relationship might be better.
Yesterday was my birthday, I asked my dad to eat with me...
Hey. Don't you think it's funny?
Don't you think it's nonsense to ask the host about parents fighting?
I really can't focus on my preparation for the examination now...
- Don't let go, please. - I won't let go.
I can't keep it straight, what should I do?
Just keep stable like me, look ahead.
♫ A nestling stands at the cliff edge, spread its wings to dry ♫
Look forward.
I'm not going straight, really.
Ahh...
Come on, Li Qin Ai!
Hey, Li Qin Ai!
Are you okay?
I told you to not let me go! Why did you let go?
I thought you can ride it now.
I can't. I don't want to ride the bicycle anymore.
Are you okay?
Okay, let's find other stuff to do. Let's stop riding the bike.
♫ All those tantrums I now fondly recall with a smile ♫
♫ I love because I exist ♫
♫ We feel our emotions so strongly because ♫
♫ Someone lies within my youth, changing my poise ♫
♫ I love, I blossom from loving you ♫
♫ Even though we walked down a muddy road ♫
♫ we gained some abilities from the journey ♫
Why did the worst luck have to be on me?
How do you know this? Do you know everyone in this world?
Older Sister Qin Ai,
Why are you so smart and I am so stupid?
You are not stupid, you are just too young.
Is it bad to be young?
Many people want to be young, right?
Youth is great.
What you are going through now is a necessary stage in youth.
But these are stupid things.
But thanks to these stupid things, you can become mature.
I don't want to become mature.
Growing up has many troubles.
I don't want to go through those stupid things either.
No one wants to grow up.
But you see, time won't wait for anyone.
Stop crying. How long have you been crying already?
Your eyes will swell like a goldfish, then you will regret it tomorrow.
You need to make yourself beautiful and become more confident.
Let him know that it is his fault.
Older Sister Qin Ai, you are so mature and smart.
Will I be like you when I'm 30?
Were you complimenting me?
Who knows? But I believe you will become great.
Okay, stop crying and go wash your face.
Stop crying, let's go.
Thank you, Older Sister Qin Ai.
Looking at her, you thought about your past self, right?
Where are you? Why didn't you pick up the call?
Please tell me when you hear my voice message.
We will play a very good song called "I want to be with you."
Right now, who do you want to be with most?
♫ No energy, always lazily... ♫
It's still me, why didn't you pick up? Where are you?
You're making me very worried.
♫ I need to do something ♫
Please call me back ASAP when you get the voice message.
♫ I don't want, don't want to open my eyes. ♫
♫ Me and you, our frequency is so similar. ♫
Dai Hai An, why do you keep ignoring my calls?
There's no way you didn't hear the phone, are you pretending you didn't hear?
Call me ASAP.
♫ This determination to love ♫
Who was that?
♫ I only want to be with you ♫
♫ I wanna be with you, I'm so happy loving you ♫
Did you fall in love?
♫ With you, I want to build... ♫
Only love can make you act like this.
Tell me, love is good, dad understands.
Share with me.
Love is not good at all. Love is painful.
Who says love hurts?
Happiness and sadness coexist, this makes a good love relationship.
♫ our frequency is so similar. ♫
Were you and Mom like this when you guys were young?
I...
Yes, I have been waiting for your call.
Why didn't you call until now? Who said I am worried about you?
That's not true.
♫ Oh yeah... ♫
♫ I wanna be with you, I'm so happy loving you ♫
♫ Oh lonely ♫
Mom, Bao Bei.
Why is the room so dark. Where are you?
Ah! Go away...!
What are you doing?
- Mother Mary... - Mom!
Kill the evil.
In the name of heaven god, I command you to get out of her.
It hurts!
Li Bao Bei, what are you doing? What are you guys doing?
Wait a second...
Go away. Go away.
- How is it? How do you feel? - It hurts a lot.
You hurt? Li Bao Bei, was it you? Why did you hit her so hard?
You told me to hid harder! You said only hitting harder will work.
- The evil spirits— - Can't you tell the difference between a slight poke and hitting hard?
- You said to hit hard— - Who let you hit hard?! It's all your fault.
- It was you who asked me to hit hard. You said only this can get rid of the evil spirits. - Who told you to hit so hard?
- You asked me to hit. - I asked for a slight poke.
Does it still hurt?
What are you laughing at? Are you laughing?
This is all because of you.
I am not some ghost, I think your mom overreacted.
How can you say you are not a ghost? Nobody except me can see you.
Right? Also, give me your hand.
I cannot touch you. You are not even a spirit.
You are scarier than those ghosts, because you aren't anything.
Why do you have to follow me?
And you always refuse to tell me what you are.
What do you think?
Come on!
Lin Guo Yu defeat Wu Dong Rong, strike him out, come on!
Will you think about the time we were together when you see this?
during the last moments of the first half...
Dai Hai An, you big fool! I'm not answering!
Hi, Li Qin Ai, can you pick up my phone. I'm sorry!
This is mine.
Here you go.
Little brother, is your last name Li?
Yes, my name is Li Bao Bei.
I am your older sister's classmate.
My last name is Dai. This is for you.
Can you do me a favor?
Sure.
Thanks.
Li Bao Bei, what are you doing!
Beloved, I am sorry, I don't know why the junior female student confessed to me.
I don't know her at all. I only love you.
Beloved, please don't get angry at me.
I am waiting for you downstairs. Love you, Hai An.
- Get up! - What do you want to do?
I will take you somewhere today.
I have to work.
Skip work today... Hurry!
- What's wrong? - This is more important. Don't ask anymore.
Get up and have breakfast. Just follow me.
[Cleansing ceremony chanting]
Out!
You asked me to call in sick just to take me here?
Just do what the master tells you to do, okay?
Master?
Let me check it out first.
Damn.
What can I do? Do we have to escape now?
Why should I escape?
Aren't you scared?
Of course I am scared.
You are afraid now?
What am I afraid of?
I thought you were not afraid of anything.
She definitely has some problems.
- You are afraid now? - Li Qin Ai!
It's our turn now.
Come on.
Master, she's had this symptom for a while.
I know. Wait a moment.
Are you kidding me?
He can see me?
Really?
Master, did you see something?
He can really see me!
[chanting]
Escape now!
[chanting]
Qin Ai!
Turn to the right a bit.
Okay, very good.
Change hands.
Great!
Smile bigger.
Great. Walk from the right.
Sorry. Hold on please.
Please rest for a bit on the side, okay?
Rest a bit. Let me try.
Let me try.
I'm done.
You really have a knack for this.
Hold it closer to your face.
Just imagine that after work,
you can release the pressure,
feel sexy, and pamper yourself when you are at home.
Enjoy it. It feels like someone is touching you.
If I knew you were good at this, I didn't need to pay to hire models.
You are so professional. I can just film you.
And whatever comes to your hands becomes luxury and makes me want to buy them.
The products are fine.
Good? Have you used them before?
I will just go to prepare for next group's ad shooting.
Sure.
It's almost done. Only the short video left, you can call Hai An.
Okay.
Hi Shiny, is your boss ready?
What? You said he disappeared?
Stop!
She ran this way! Faster, here...
I'm so out of breath.
Good thing he didn't get us. I cannot run anymore.
Why can I touch you?
I was holding your hands all the way, right?
Yes, you held my hand and ran.
Why?
How come I cannot touch you again now?
Why? And why can he see you?
Are you something evil, like a ghost?
My dear Qin Ai...
you still don't understand what's happening?
What do you mean?
He didn't see me at all.
No, he stared at you.
No, he didn't see me.
What he saw is air.
He saw me because you were looking at me.
Plus, you enabled yourself to touch me.
What do you mean? I cannot understand.
Have a try. Hold my hand.
I cannot touch you.
Close your eyes.
Try to imagine
that I'm real and then hold my hand.
♫ I love, because I exist. ♫
♫ Oh lonely ♫
How can this happen?
What are you?
You still don't know?
I am only your imagination.
I am your excuse to escape reality.
I am everything you refuse to face.
I am the proof you still cannot move on from Dai Hai An.
That's impossible.
I have already let go of Dai Hai An.
I have already moved on from him.
You...
I have already chosen to forget you.
I have chosen Li Yang.
Why do you still hold those memories?
If you are bored, eat Pinky.
Fragrance in your mouth, no bad breath!
Eat Pinky!
Pinky, give me one.
Pinky, give me one. Thanks.
Hey.
Here we go. Older Brother Feng.
So far, he's accumulated...
Homerun...!
Oh no...
It's okay. It's just two scores. Brother Feng, bring it on.
Hit the ball.
Come, enjoy some drinks.
I also bought some snacks.
I got this.
Come.
Sarsaparilla. Drink some.
This is yours.
Let me open this for you.
Who is she?
I don't know her.
My name is Zhong Shu Ying.
I am Hai An's classmate, you are Qin Ai, right?
Nice to meet you. I know you guys are together, he told me.
In the world of baseball,
even if you lose the whole game,
one skilful hit can let you make up the mistake
and rewrite the ending.
But in the world of love, a small crack
can lead to a big wound that can't be healed.
That afternoon they won the extended baseball match.
But it's also when our love
seemed to change forever.
We're finished.
My relationship with you came to an end.
Dai Hai An, where are you?
I can go get you.
Restaurant?
Which restaurant?
What are you doing there?
Fine.
Sorry to keep you waiting.This is your receipt.
- Thank you. - Thanks. See you next time.
Take care.
So you want to borrow the location to film the video?
Yes.
I don't understand. Why do you have to choose mine considering there are so many other restaurants?
Because I think the light is beautiful
and the atmosphere is nice.
This is an old house.
I think this place is too simple, can't match as a celebrity like you, Mr. Dai.
- What do you mean? - I mean, we have different choices.
Regardless of social status,
maybe it's just the difference between maturity and immaturity.
In other words, childish.
How can you distinguish between mature and childish?
People with great achievements are not necessarily old, right?
Yes. Age cannot stand for anything.
I don't have the same amount of fame and achievement as Mr. Dai.
But I still believe that a mature man
can see something important ignored by those worldly eyes.
A childish person's perspective might be
comparatively narrow-minded.
Sorry, I'm off topic. Let's get back to business.
So you want to borrow my restaurant for shooting the video clip?
Yes.
Mr. Dai is a professional.
You should be fully aware of separating public matters with personal issues.
You are not coming here for someone else right?
Li Qin Ai.
Why are you here all of a sudden?
Mr. Dai told me you were classmates in high school.
Yes.
Actually, it's good that he is here.
Some things... I've thought about for a long time.
I want to say, should this happen on some tropical island?
At the Arctic Pole, or the peak of Mount Shengmu?
But now that I see you in front of me,
I find all of them not important at all.
It is now.
Qin Ai, marry me.
What are you doing?
What do you want?
I don't want to do anything.
So why did you drag me out here?
Why did you run out with me?
[Li Yang]
Li Qin Ai, avoiding the problem won't help you solve it.
Why do you have to look for me, appear and disrupt my life?
Hey, why are you so mad at me?
- Did you do this on purpose? - Do what on purpose?
Why do you have to collaborate with Li Yang?
It's just for the business of course. What else?
Of the many restaurants in Taipei, you chose his.
But there are very few restaurants without menus, so I don't have many options.
Don't tell me you think I did this for you.
We have broken up a long time ago and have nothing to do with each other right?
Why don't you let me go?
Okay, let me ask a question. Will you marry him?
What?
I just care about you as an old friend.
Will you say yes?
None of your business.
♫ I love, because I exist. ♫
♫ Oh lonely ♫
Do you want a ride?
Qin Ai, marry me.
So I am hallucinating again?
Hallucination or reality, it doesn't matter.
What's important is, are you okay?
If you decide to get married, you have to let me go.
Because happiness is not earned but nurtured.
So you can only get something new when you leave something behind.
Also,
you must be really hesitant thinking about getting married so suddenly.
Don't you think this is quite risky?
I have already forgotten the last time I had an adventure.
It must be bungee jumping with me.
You still remember it?
I should say, you know about this?
Of course, I know. I pushed you down in the end.
I even forget where I got the courage to stand there and jump down at that time.
So, look how happy you can be when you're with me.
Get rid of the cook.
You are still young, you don't know.
I am not young, and I am quite successful.
I am a Marketing Vice Manager, I even have my own marketing lab.
Are you Dan Hai An's endorser?
Yes. I am him.
Frankly, can you please not marry that cook?
What then? Will you marry me?
Don't tell me you're just waiting for a guy to marry you?
You don't understand.
Yes, I really don't understand.
When women reach age 25,
every lunar new year, groups of relatives and friends will ask,
"Will you get married? When will you marry a man?" They won't give up.
But those are their questions, not your problems.
Hey, to be honest, don't you think all of these are a boring lie?
Men own and control the world.
Because they're afraid that the world will be destroyed,
they have to lure women to get married and have babies.
What kind of logic is that?
Because if women want to control the world,
they will have to fight the men.
At that time, the world will be destroyed.
War... If women really want to start a war,
we won't do it in a way men can think of.
So, what you mean is that women will fight by evil tricks?
I envy you so much.
Really?
Yes.
If I am still 17,
I don't have to consider if I have to marry or not.
Why does the world have to be so complicated? Why is life so difficult?
If time can stop,
so that we won't grow older. How great would that be?
Yeah!
I know, I am right. You use the same trick every time.
I know, I used new tricks. When I jump, you can't...
Hey, hello?
Someone proposed to Li Qin Ai.
Do you care?
I don't know.
I didn't expect Dai Hai An to not know something.
If you don't want her to get married, tell her.
[Coming up next] - I don't know what I can give you. - I just want to be with you.
No!
Maybe you will lose some freedom.
Getting married can also have a sense of security.
- Things between me and her don't need your advice. - Please understand your position, ex-boyfriend.
A person should not be too selfish.
Will you hate me in the future too?
Do you want to live in an aquarium for the rest of your life?
Or do you want to be a fish living for yourself in the sea?
All of this mess is because of your existence!
Have you ever thought about getting married?
Can we get married?

♫ It's my fault I can't let go ♫
♫ I can only pretend ♫

♫ I deserve to be in pain ♫

[Luzhou Line opens, commuters applaud its convenience.]
[2003 SARS Pandemic] [2003 November 5, Why is it none of the above?]
Okay, time's up, hand in your tests.
Class is over.
So tired.
Thank you.
The last question, which answer did you choose? Which one is correct?
The last question? The answer was none of the above.
None of the above? A trick question.
That one is easy, okay?
So tired...
