Ten Years Late
Episode 33
Thank you.
It’s okay. I’m not in a hurry.
Stay with her for a while.
Thanks.
Jin Ran.
It’s all my fault.
No way.
You have your own position.
You shouldn’t have blamed yourself.
Speaking of responsibility,
Chu Yun is revenging us because of me.
Ironically,
four years ago,
Chu Yun brought so many problems.
All of us went different ways.
Four years later, Chu Yun came back.
We still couldn’t get rid of the same fate.
What are you talking about?
Time has changed.
I’ll take care of everything.
We will not fall into the same old trap.
We’re no longer
adolescent.
Many quarrels between adults
can’t be fixed.
Why haven’t I told Xinyi?
I know she’s grumpy.
Why haven’t I told her?
Yuan Lai. Stop thinking about that.
We’ll be good.
Because of me, she set herself
against Chu Yun.
But I…
I failed to protect her.
It’s okay.
Xinyi.
Xu Xinyi.
This is what happened.
I promise you.
Nothing happened between Chu Yun and me.
Now you’re explaining to me.
Why didn’t you tell me earlier?
When I first found the problem,
I went to Chengzhi.
Considering he is going to have a celebration party tonight,
I don’t want to cast a chill.
And I believe…
you have confidence in our love.
If you think this way,
you’ll fall into Chu Yun’s trap.
So it’s my fault?
No. I failed to handle it properly.
But I don’t understand.
Why don’t you trust me, Xu Xinyi?
Shut up!
Xinyi. Xin…
I told you!
I hate Chu Yun!
I asked you to stay away fromher.
When she got close,
you could have gone away.
But I was drunk that day!
Was that an excuse?
No.
Being drunk can’t be an excuse.
But I swear, I didn’t sleep with her.
I’m not that kind of guy.
Look! Look at me!
I’m your wife.
Don’t you know
you’ll hurt me?
Xinyi. Sorry.
It’s all my fault.
I…
I failed to make you feel safe.
Calm down.
I promise you!
This will never happen again.
Xinyi.
Yeah.
This will never happen again.
Wake up in the middle of the night.
I dreamed of you.
I miss you so much.
No. I…
It’s all in the past
The self-contemptuous deserter.
Regretful and everything goes to zero.
When we lose it,
we learn to introspect.
Deceive ourselves.
How painful the heart is hurt!
How steadfast it gets!
For the affection,
though we are hurt by it,
we go regardless perils.
Desire to excel over others.
We wanna find the cure.
Don't resort to petty tricks.
Love has no win or lose.
Otherwise the last thing left…
Ten o’clock.
I’ll be waiting for you in the café.
Be there or be square.
We are the scenery.
No way to hide the loneliness.
Be unknown in the city.
It's undeniable, the heart of the lover.
Can't be earned by endless sacrifice.
The self-contemptuous deserter.
Regretful and everything goes to zero.
When we lose it,
we learn to introspect.
Deceive ourselves.
How painful the heart is hurt!
How steadfast it gets!
For the affection,
though we are hurt by it,
we go regardless perils.
Desire to excel over others.
My feet are benumbed.
Come on.
Give me a hand.
Finally you wake up.
The sun is shining.
Why don’t you go to work?
Well… fire me then.
How dare I?
My princess.
I knocked on your door whole last night.
But you didn’t answer.
You were sound asleep like a piggy.
A guy with something in his mind could never fall asleep.
Just like me.
I didn’t sleep at all.
I just didn’t want to answer the door.
Who told you I slept well?
Really?
But I find you more beautiful.
In sharp contrast with me.
Look at me!
How haggard I am!
Look!
I have a few more gray hairs, don’t I?
Don’t I?
Look! My lip turns blue.
You’re so annoying!
You’re right.
After sleeping on the ground overnight,
I felt myself annoying.
Today, I’ll do my best.
If you don’t forgive me,
I don’t know
what else I will do.
Get off me.
Let go of me.
I won’t forgive you.
Let go of me. Let…
You?
What are you looking at?
Haven’t you seen whispers between a couple?
What the hell!
What’s wrong with her?
What are you doing?
You enjoy quarrelling, huh?
No.
I… I’m shameless anyway.
If you don’t forgive me,
I’ll go downstairs
and streak.
- Go ahead. - I’ll streak.
Shuangshuang.
I’ll talking seriously.
After I finish,
if you still don’t like it,
you can…
walk away.
I thought about it carefully last night.
I admit that
I care for Yuan Lai.
But that is more because of
our friendship over ten years.
I swear.
I don’t have lousy taste in her.
As for what happened yesterday,
I had to explain.
Look! Yuan Lai is a girl.
If she was to be spilled,
I would pull her back.
I didn’t know you were behind me.
If I knew you were behind me,
I would have helped you first.
Why would I pull her?
Right?
I called you so many times behind you.
Didn’t you hear me?
Did you?
Impossible!
Were you calling me in my mind?
Zhao Chengzhi. Didn’t you say you would be serious?
I am serious!
I don’t want to get pestered.
I… I…
Shuangshuang.
Sorry. Xinyi.
I should have told you.
I thought about it carefully last night.
I thought…
Would it be different
if you had told me
when it happened?
Nothing could be different.
I feel really guilty now.
You know what?
You get into trouble
because of me.
It’s not your fault.
I told Ding Ang that
I didn’t like Chu Yun
and asked him to stay away from her.
And I told him many times
to watch out for her.
But he still gave Chu Yun a chance
to approach him.
It’s not Ding Ang’s fault.
Stop blaming him, all right?
It’s all because of me.
If I were you,
I would hide it from you
in case of the same situation.
It seems that
Chu Yun is coming against all of us.
You and Jin Ran must be careful.
I’m a little worried about Chengzhi.
Take care of your own problem now.
Listen to me.
Ding Ang will never
betray you.
I’m begging you.
Make it up with him!
Only when you make it up with Ding Ang
will Chu Yun feel disappointed.
Rarely could I slip away from my company.
Go buy something for the baby with me.
Xinyi.
Let’s go.
Honey?
Go away.
I’ve packed up for you.
You know me.
I’m not venting my anger,
or playing cat and mouse.
This goes beyond my bottom line.
I no longer want the truth.
Please give the peace back to me.
Before your baby is born,
I’m willing to be your nanny
to take care of you.
All right.
I said I forgave you.
I’m not pleasing you!
I’m sincere! All right?
Wait a second.
Hello. Ms. Hua.
Are you free today?
What’s wrong?
I’m in our old house.
If you’re free,
come here.
I’ll be waiting for you.
Okay.
I’ll go there.
See you later.
What?
Your future mother-in-law wants to see you?
What are you talking about?
Go ahead.
I’m going back to the company soon.
Sorry. Little baby.
I’ll come to see you next time. All right?
Are you okay?
Don’t worry. I’m okay.
Go ahead.
Go.
See you.
Honey. May I meet you?
I have a lot to tell you.
I’m not going to leave our home.
Hello.
Mom.
Are you home?
If you’re free,
come to our old house.
Okay. See you later.
Okay. I’ll be waiting for you.
Auntie.
You bad girl!
You were freaking me out! What the hell!
I didn’t.
You were absorbed in something.
Yeah.
I like my old house.
I recall a lot of things
when I come back here.
Yeah.
Well…
When you’re free,
I’ll invite you to coffee.
No. My treat.
I make money now.
Really?
Okay. Let’s go.
You look gorgeous today.
Close the door.
Leave it to me.
Okay.
Ms. Hua. It’s for you.
Okay.
Thank you.
What are you reading?
Nothing. Just for fun.
You were back
to visit the old house, weren’t you?
Yeah.
I always miss our old house
and our life in the past.
What about you?
Do you always miss it?
I miss it, too.
In the past,
I was trying to escape from there.
But when I left,
I realized that
I had the best time
in there.
I remember
I used to run after you for watermelons.
Then I wondered
why you always had the sweetest watermelons?
Then I realized
you left the sweetest part to me.
Yeah.
That was your childhood.
Sometimes,
I still dream of the doorway I was waiting at.
I held the soy-braised pork,
waiting for my brother from the evening study.
In fact, my grandmother always knew
I would give the meat to him.
So she made more soy-braised pork
every time,
in case I couldn’t have enough
because I wanted to keep some for him.
Now…
I can no longer enjoy the soy-braised pork she made.
Yeah.
You’ve all grown up.
You have your career,
life and business.
Look at you!
Now you appear in public.
You’re a public figure.
But I’m still your little girl.
Since my grandma passed away,
you and brother
have been the most important people to me.
But I don’t like it
when he always avoids me.
I just hope he could still be my Brother Jin Ran
just as he was.
Xiaoyun.
Things change.
So do people.
Just like maple leaves.
They’re green in spring.
But turn red
in autumn.
With the change of age, time,
and the environment,
people change, too.
Look!
You’re so young.
You’re have a better future.
What future do I have?
Since Yuan Lai appeared,
she took away Jin Ran.
I hate her.
But I hurt her mother by accident.
Since then,
nothing could go back.
Everyone avoids me.
Stop thinking like that, Xiaoyun.
Who avoids you?
See? I don’t.
Ms. Hua. I don’t mean that.
I know you care for me most.
Don’t worry.
I’ll take care of you
with Jin Ran.
We three
will live a happy life.
Xiaoyun.
You get the wrong idea.
Look! You’ve grown up.
You should have your own relationship,
job and career.
Jin Ran and I
will always support you.
We’re always your families.
I understand.
At my age,
I look on the bright side on many things.
Don’t get it too complicated in life.
We’ll just live an easy
and happy life
just as we used to do.
It’ll be good for all of us.
What do you think?
You should remember what your grandma said.
You must be kind,
whatever you do.
You’d rather suffer losses
than hurt others
with evil intentions.
You must remember.
I do.
Anybody in?
Ms. Hua?
Yuan Lai?
Why are you here?
Why are you here, too?
My omr asked me back.
She just called me
and asked me to drop by.
But it seems she isn’t in.
She may be out for a walk.
It’s been so many years.
But nothing here has changed.
Everything remains the same.
Yeah.
We haven’t been back for years.
Later my mother told me that
some neighbors often
help to clean
the rockery or plants.
Do you remember
what we buried here?
It should be here, huh?
I find it!
Look how rusty it is!
Be careful.
All are here.
Look!
Like I said…
I didn’t like
such things.
Time capsule? Come on.
Besides,
if you hadn’t forced me,
I wouldn’t have written the letter.
What’s wrong with that?
Look how beautiful it is!
The photos were taken casually.
None was serious.
Casually?
What about the letter？
Did you also write it casually?
Give it to me.
What? I’ll read it.
Dear.
Though I’m forced to write the letter,
I feel very pleased
deep in my heart.
It’s the third year of our relationship.
We’re going to graduate soon.
I wonder
what we’re going to be in the future.
But I believe…
we will never fall apart.
If something happens
to separate us,
I will
find you
and hug you.
I don’t know when the time capsule
will be opened.
I hope…
we’ll open it when we’re old.
Yuan Lai.
Thank you for showing up in my life.
Brother. Sister. Hello.
Uh…
I must finish
the proposal for Lan Town tonight.
I’ll come to visit your mother next time.
I gotta go.
I miss your past,
that I owned.
You saw it, didn’t you?
I’ve done all that I can.
But I don’t see much effect.
Then I have to say, the relationship between Yuan Lai and Jin Ran
is indestructible.
No one will separate them.
So you’re coming to
tell me
you can do nothing,
Aren’t you?
I don’t know
what else I can do.
You must understand
I feel guilty, too.
We made a deal
to only make Xinyi aware.
But why is it
spreading so quickly and widely?
You did it, didn’t you?
Don’t worry.
Next…
I’ll do it myself
to give you a hand.
Give me a helping hand?
Gu Sa, you must make it clear.
I’m no longer eager
to get Jin Ran back.
I’m giving you a hand.
Miss Chu.
I’ve reserved a role for you
in the next film
I invest.
I think you’ll have a promising future as an actress.
What’s your next plan?
This photographer
is Mike.
Take this photo to him.
He makes a name for himself in the photographing circle.
Honey. I’m downstairs your company.
I’ll be waiting for you.
Could you forgive me?
Have you heard of the latest news?
You mean Xinyi’s husband?
I…
I wasn’t bullish about her marriage.
They had a big wedding.
- But what does it help? - Yeah.
He’s a rich boy, so what?
Isn’t he still promiscuous?
It’s hard to live in a rich family.
Exactly.
I wonder how some people think.
They know nothing,
but gossiping behind people.
They fail to make progress at work.
It’s okay when they’re incapable.
But they even ruin the image of our company.
What do you think about it?
Go. Go. Let’s go.
You look really disheartened!
What happened?
Xiaotong.
Do you think
Zhao Chengzhi
loves me?
He…
He was always like a big boy.
But I find…
since he has been in a relationship with you,
I’ve seen the changes on him.
Changes? What changes?
After he knocks off,
he no longer hangs out with his friends.
Besides,
he stays with you around the clock.
Aren’t these changes?
You know these
because I told you.
Maybe I’m too confident?
And I felt too good
when I told you about it.
Well…
I’ll try another way.
I find
you’ve changed, too.
Me?
Look at you.
You used to be a naive girl.
But now, you’re almost an excellent lawyer.
What’s does it concern him?
Zhao Chengzhi brought this to you.
Think about it.
Without his care and supervision,
would you study hard on law?
It’s said that
the right couple
will perfect each other.
See? You’re more outstanding.
Most credits go to Chengzhi.
If he didn’t love you,
or cared for you,
would you be as excellent as you are now?
Uh…
What if…
What if he hasn’t realized
he loves someone else?
Come on.
He’s almost thirty.
And he’s not an idiot.
How could he not
distinguish his feelings?
Besides…
A man
will never force himself.
Especially your boyfriend.
Do you think he’ll wrong himself?
You sound reasonable.
But I still feel unhappy.
Yeah. You feel unhappy.
Someone keeps calling you.
I won’t answer it.
I’m still angry.
I really doubt that
you’re trying to be lovey-dovey in front of me.
Hell no!
Fine. Go have dinner with me.
Do not bring him up again.
Got it?
Let’s go.
Have you got everything ready?
Yes.
Check it. Don’t leave anything.
Wang. Wait for me.
Hurry up.
What would you like for dinner?
Whatever.
There’s so much I’d like to eat.
See you. Shuangshuang.
This is the prize from the competition.
I’ve given you RMB 520.
You own the credit.
Please kindly accept it.
You’d better save it.
This is the first pot of gold of our own family.
What are you doing?
Put away your camera.
You always inspire me.
Don’t move.
Don’t interrupt with my inspiration.
Who takes photos with the flash lamp?
It’ll be pale.
You don’t understand, huh?
If I manage to control the white balance,
the effect
will be artistical.
One more.
Smile!
Enough.
Stop. Stop.
If you forgive me,
I’ll have to stop for some rest.
Do you think I’ll forgive you
Merely with some money and photos?
I’ve got a feeling.
Photos I’m taking
will make a stir again.
Are you nuts?
You didn’t come to fawn on me
until I got really angry.
Fine. Fine.
I’m nuts! I’m nuts!
But I still want to tell you.
I decide to take up the camera again
because I get the confidence from you.
So I’ll name this set of photos
Start of Dream.
Come on.
Have a look.
I like this one.
Hello.
We’re the sponsor of Impression Photography Competition.
Someone reported to us that
you plagiarized another works,
named Return.
Upon the principle of fairness and justice,
we’ll investigate on it.
Hope you’ll cooperate with us.
Plagiarized?
No way.
This is my original works.
Why would I plagiarize someone else?
I hope you’ll investigate on it carefully.
I’ll cooperate as far as I can.
Fine. Wait for the notice.
Okay.
Someone reported that you plagiarized?
Yeah.
They said I plagiarized another works,
Named…
Return.
I’ve never heard of it.
How funny it is!
Totally different topics.
And they said I plagiarized.
In the end,
the reason is…
the similar composition of a picture.
There are only several compositions of a picture.
Plagiarized?
How ignorant they are!
We run into trouble one after another.
There must be something fishy.
You remind me.
There must be something fishy.
Gotta go.
Xinyi.
Let me explain.
I don’t want to see you.
Can’t you give me another chance?
Chu Yun.
It was her trap.
Xu Xinyi.
Nothing happened between her and me.
I don’t want to live in gossips.
You’ve brought great trouble
to my life.
More importantly,
I hope my baby
can live in peace.
Yes. I also do this for the baby.
Only when we’re good
can we fight back the gossips.
Don’t push me.
Calm down.
If you dare push me,
I’ll do anything.
Xinyi.
Trust me.
You won’t leave, huh?
Fine. I’ll go.
If you fail to
get back the loss of our company,
I’ll see you in court.
Mr. Hu.
Listen… listen to me.
About the loss…
Next week, I will…
Hello?
Hello? Mr. Hu.
Hello?
Mr. Ji.
The Chairman Secretary of Construction Group called,
saying they would quit the greening construction in Lan Town.
They’d rather pay the penalty.
James’s secretary also called that
they would send a lawyer
for withdrawal and penalty.
I see.
Where is Bob?
He’s giving the final push.
He flew to Beijing that very night,
for new partners.
Let him take his time
and not to rush.
Let him stay in Beijing for a few more days.
And you.
Get back home for rest.
Mr. Ji. Are you alright?
Yes.
You, too.
Get back home early for rest.
Works of art presented in this hotel
are all about tourism.
I remember
the hotel manager once asked me
for some advice.
It turned out
to be excellent.
Yeah.
In most five-star hotels,
luxury goods are sold in the public area.
But you choose to
give an exhibition with a traveling theme
where tourists stay.
It fits the theme.
But the income of the hotel has been sacrificed.
Will you lose more than gain?
Yes.
Normally, there are shops for luxury goods
in the five-star hotels.
But the business benefits
are not favorable.
Instead, I think
a hotel should have
its own feature.
Then it can impress its guests.
That matters most.
How delicate it is!
How is it made?
Do you like it?
Of course.
I’ve been dreaming
to travel around the world
in such a boat.
someday.
How beautiful it will be!
Come on. Yuan Lai.
Have a seat.
Tell me.
Why do you choose to work in tourism?
Do you want to travel
when you work?
Yes.
I didn’t expect you to be so honest.
I’m telling the truth.
I don’t need to hide it from you.
Besides,
combining my ideal and career
with hobby
is a happy thing
for me.
How about this? Yuan Lai.
Stay in Feitu.
I need an assistant like you.
Me?
But my major…
The major isn’t necessarily related to your profession.
Do you mean?
Do you mean you’re willing to teach me?
I like the frankness and enthusiasm
you have.
Especially for those who work in tourism.
They must get to know
the market.
They also need profession degree,
research and discernment.
More importantly,
they need the exploration and enthusiasm
for the unknown.
Got it?
Because I hope…
I’ll make travelling a lifestyle for Chinese people
in the next decade.
There will be a lot of work to do.
I need your help.
Thank you, Mr. Ji.
You’ll always be the teacher I admire most.
I will work hard.
