The first time I met you,
seems like you can see my soul through.
For every trivial detail,
why can you see it?
Before I met you,
I've never thought about what love is.
Wondering if you feel the same?
You come to me like wind,
taking me away from the crowds
to touch the blue sky.
If you're tender wind,
please take me to the sky,
hand in hand, till we see all the scenery again.
Till we see all the scenery.
Someday, maybe the wind stops.
If possible,
I hope we can meet
in the same place.
Regardless of the weather,
cloudy, rainy or sunny,
we breathe the same air.
Do you also
keep the original intention
and still like staring at stars?
If you're tender wind,
take me as your wind chimes,
everyday, ringing happily.
My Mowgli Boy
Episode 22
Please enjoy it.
This is weird.
Is someone talking about me behind my back?
I sneeze like crazy these days,
and my earlobes are a bit hot.
You must be talking about Tang Cheng, aren't you?
By the way,
how far
has your relationship gone?
Still in the same place.
How can that be?
I remember you told me back then
you were going to
meet each others' parents, didn't you?
Tang Cheng came to my home a few days ago
and got on my family's nerves outright.
My mother has stopped playing mahjong these days
and started practicing sword.
She brandishes a long-tasseled sword all day long,
by turns carrying it behind her back
and twisting her arms in a posture to attack,
I think my father and I
could be stabbed into a sieve at any moment.
It's such a vivid scene, isn't it?
At the same time,
I will show
a caring heart to you.
Take it back.
But
it is not so serious as to affect
your relationship, is it?
Tang Cheng and I
seem to be very close,
but actually we are far apart.
It seems she is visible
and tangible,
but actually unfathomable
and unintelligible.
It's like looking at flowers in a fog
or the moon in the water.
I'd say both of you have cataract.
We can only be cured
when we know the cause of the disease.
Tang Cheng and I
are just like a hunter and her game.
She's running so fast that
I'm just waiting to be caught like a turtle in a jar.
What about you? How are you getting on?
We…
We are the opposite of you guys.
She is just like…
a…
prey that I can never catch.
Cheers.
Cheers?
So did you ask me out
just to pour out our grievances to each other today?
Come to think of it,
actually I asked you out
to discuss something serious.
I've known what happened to Ling Xi
and I've watched the videos online.
I think
she has been taken advantage of,
so
I'm gonna restore the truth for her.
Such kind of professional plagiarism buster
hides behind an ID.
It's like fishing a needle out of an ocean,
I'm afraid it's hard to catch him together with his loot.
I'm gonna ferret him out
even if by diving into the Mariana Trench.
Your apology
shows me your sincerity and sense of responsibility.
But this incident
was such a heavy blow to me that
I can't forgive you.
You'll know how I feel
if you've ever kept a pet.
I respect your unforgiveness,
but I still want to do what I can
to make up for the damage done to you,
no matter how negligible that is.
What exactly is Aunt Lei's feeling
as she put it?
I have a way to help you.
Really?
To square accounts after the autumn harvest
refers to the fact that farmers
used to settle income and expenditures in a year after autumn harvest.
It is a metaphor for awaiting an opportunity to
settle scores or take revenge after an incident.
Mowgli!
Shall I play dead?
Pretend to be asleep?
Forget it.
All men will die.
I'll be a hero again
in 20 years.
I'm coming.
Hurry up, Mowgli!
Why are you so slow?
I was studying.
Why are you dodging?
Physical contact is a no-no between men and women.
To hell with no physical contact!
We are in a relationship now.
I can kiss you as I like, do you know?
Let me ask you,
I pushed you into Aunt Lei's house yesterday,
and you don't take the slightest offense
and have a mind to take revenge?
I tell you what,
if this happened in the days before,
I would have exterminated you on the spot.
But
now I know your starting point
is for my own good.
It's OK.
Are you serious?
Yes.
But
I'd like you to do me a favor.
See,
I just had an ominous hunch.
Terrific!
Come on, come on, raise your hands.
Very charming.
Like this.
So cute!
Like this.
Right.
The first feeling for having a pet is
having its photos and videos everywhere in my cell phone.
Mowgli,
look here, let me take a photo of you.
Be cuter.
So cute!
Well done.
The second feeling for having a pet is
it often acts cutesy,
tries to win your favor,
gets jealous
and asks for a cuddle.
So cute.
Act cutesy, little Mowgli.
Get jealous.
Act cutesy.
What's wrong?
I want to ask you,
and I'm asking you seriously,
do you think
you can find
how it feels for human beings to get along with animals by doing so?
I don't think it's far off.
Doesn't it just feel like holding the pet in your hands,
thinking about it every day
and doting on it?
I think pet is the wrong word.
Do animals exist
just to please human beings?
You know what,
some people shave their fur,
dye their hair
and get them dressed.
Has it ever occurred to them if the animals
are really happy
or if they really need these things?
Some people go even further.
In order to prevent the cat from scratching their furniture
and bed linens,
they even cut its nails.
When I was in the forest back then,
I lived together with my animal friends
in peace.
Everyone was equal
and we respected each other.
I think this is the way for human beings and animals
to live together in peace.
Why?
Did what I said
make you unhappy?
Before you said that,
I didn't feel a thing.
After you said that,
I seem to have a vague inspiration.
Thank you,
Mowgli.
My pleasure.
You look very beautiful
when you are deep in thought.
The damn woman is weird today.
Every time she's back,
she pushes the door open, shouting
"I'm back!"
She didn't say that toady.
There are two of them.
Two of them?
It seems the two of them
entered the room,
took off their clothes
and they seem to be breathing heavily.
Stop it!
You will be artificially silenced if you go on.
Do you think…
since Tang Cheng has gone to bed,
we should…
Where did you learn these flirting skills?
…turn on the air-con?
Young man,
this is
is a physically demanding job.
Many young people like you
can't endure it.
Are you sure
you can stick it out?
Of course I can.
In order to provide for my girlfriend,
I can stick it out
however hard or tiring it is.
Sir,
is No.2301 two-drawer cabinet
on the shelf above?
Why couldn't I find it?
It's on the top shelf of the third row.
How did you know?
I've had a look
when I came here just now.
The storage shelves here are made of wood.
They roughly divide into
one-drawer, two-drawer
and multi-drawer ones.
They happened to be unloading cargo just now,
and I also saw that
they started to unload outdoor
for the sake of convenience.
They sorted it by cargo number
and then by vision for the rest of it.
I happen to have good vision,
and
I'm also good at this.
Turns out people in love are full of energy.
All right, you can come.
The working hours
are 8 a.m to 10 p.m.
Bring your own meals.
He's quite hard-working.
I have another question.
Do I get paid more
if I move more?
Yes, we quantify the workload.
More pay for more work.
You don't have to work so hard, do you?
Exactly.
They indeed have blackmailed me and extorted money from me.
I can go to the
public security bureau
to help you identify them if necessary.
I'm sorry,
may I ask
who reported the case for me please?
Thanks.
Have you read Miss Ling's
public apology to Aunt Lei on Weibo?
Yes.
Life changes
even faster than the speed of launching of new lipsticks.
The company went belly up
when everything was perfectly all right.
She obviously could have relied on her father,
but she insisted on striking out on her own.
She can be counted as a maverick among the silver-spoon generation
by seeking out hardships for herself.
Indeed.
If I were her,
I'd choose an easy way
and become a winner of life without making the slightest effort.
Miss Ling.
Amy,
could you come over here?
Miss Ling,
is there anything you want to see me about?
Is Mr. Zheng here today?
Mr. Zheng is in a meeting with a client.
Would you like to come in and sit awhile?
No, thanks.
I'll just wait for him here.
President Ling doesn't let me in,
so I will not make myself unwelcome.
But
I reckon Mr. Zheng's meeting
will take more than an hour.
It's OK.
I have plenty of time anyway.
Don't bother about me.
Hurry up to go on with your work. Go.
OK.
Feel free to come to me
if you need anything.
Amy,
from now on, I announce that
your informer duty to me is completely removed.
When you see me afterwards,
you don't have to be so scared as if you've
seen a tigress.
I brought you so much trouble before,
and I'm sorry for that.
Miss Ling,
there seems to be something different about you.
I'll go on with my work.
Go.
Tang Cheng, no more sleep.
Get up for breakfast.
Lu Ziyue, are you a rooster?
You crow punctually every day.
Don't you believe I'll
stew you with some mushroom?
Tang Cheng, come for breakfast.
Morning.
Healthy chicken and buckwheat breakfast.
I'm not hungry.
Did you drink again last night?
I'll go and get you some lemonade.
What do you come to see me about early in the morning?
I tell you what,
I teamed up with Zheng Li
and did something big for Ling Xi!
Fraudsters see nothing but money in their eyes.
As long as there is a bigger temptation,
they will show their true colors.
Do you remember the key steps?
I've learnt them by heart.
Volunteer to take the bait,
confirm the other party's true identity,
locate the other party's IP address,
confirm the other party's criminal facts,
and confirm whether the other party has an accomplice.
Let's begin.
Hello.
Hi, this is the shop owner.
We don't want to blow things up,
actually we can pay
whatever amount you want.
What?
You didn't receive the money?
That's not possible.
Is it convenient for you
to give me the link of the remittance?
Lock username of PC.
Locate IP address.
Microphone is on.
Camera is on.
Bingo!
I tell you what,
the money must reach my account.
If not,
I will let your shop shut down,
don't you believe me?
Let's wait and see if you don't.
I have plenty of ways.
Zheng Li didn't make a move for such a long time,
and he blew my mind once he did.
He wasn't called Prince of Programming on campus
for nothing.
He doesn't like Ling Xi,
but
he's ready to help his younger sister.
Why is your house in such a mess?
When did Brother Mowgli
change his dressing style into something like this?
I'm sorry.
It's mine. It's mine.
He is…
I don't know him either.
Just think of him
as a friend who stayed overnight at my place.
I didn't sleep with him.
He slept on the floor.
He was too drunk last night.
I believe what you said.
Nothing happened between us last night,
but it doesn't mean
nothing will happen between us later on.
Tang Cheng,
I want to ask you again,
if we get married later on,
will you do this again?
I'll confirm with you again:
It is impossible for us to get married.
I mean if,
just if.
That's not possible either.
Well,
I've just spent a third of my life,
why do I have to settle down so early?
What's more, I don't want to
change so much for another person.
If you insist on thinking this way,
that only shows
we are not right for each other at all.
I thought you'd give it a second thought,
but unexpectedly, you didn't hesitate for even a second.
Actually what your mother said is right.
I'm a Spade,
while you are a Heart
we have different colors;
I drink alcohol while you drink tea,
we have different tastes;
I'm wild while you are stable,
we have different temperaments.
Actually we are two extremes
in every way.
If we insist on being together,
we won't last long.
I think complementarity
makes for the best match.
Probably I'm wrong.
There is still time
if you regret it.
I've been changing
for you all the time.
I go to the jazz dance class
just to save myself from being awkward when I'm in a bar
with you.
I watch so many makeup bloggers' videos
just to have something to talk about with you
when we go shopping.
Even just now
I was trying to persuade myself
not to care.
But none of this matters now.
Your insistence
is the last straw that broke the camel's back.
So have you dropped the idea?
Love is not compromise,
it is freedom,
so let's break up.
Remember to have your breakfast.
As I said,
if I had known it is so easy (to break up),
I would have said such things long ago,
for sure.
I'm free!
If you have any questions
regarding the specifics,
you can bring it up for discussion,
-OK? -No problem.
I think it's quite good.
So
I look forward to
working with you next time.
OK.
Bye.
Take care.
Why did you fall asleep here?
Have you finished your meeting?
Such an unsightly side of me has been seen!
Big disgrace!
This won't do.
I must switch to perfect mode.
No, no,
I can do it myself.
No, no, I'll get up myself.
It's OK. It's OK.
My feet have got numb, my feet have got numb.
-I'm sorry. -You are welcome.
No, no, no.
Ne…ne…ne…never mind.
What's up?
Do you want to see me about something?
I forgot about it.
I heard
you collected a lot of evidence
and drove the two fraudsters
away for me.
Thank you.
That's it?
Or else?
You don't show enough sincerity.
I'm broke recently
and living off Tang Cheng.
I have no money to treat you to dinner
or buy you a little gift.
I only have
a sincerely grateful heart to give you.
All right.
All right?
So perfunctory.
Let's do it this way then.
Shall I
treat you to a fart machine,
a ghost thriller
or some odd-flavor popcorn?
Choose one out of three.
No thanks.
Enjoy them yourself.
Despite my sincere invitation,
my benefactor doesn't appreciate my kindness,
so I have to drop it.
You are possessed by a drama queen.
You are possessed by a troll.
This is the better way
for us to get along.
I came this time to tell you
that
just continue to be Zheng the Troll in the days ahead
and you don't need to avoid me.
I'm different from my former self.
I will not cling to you
and tag along with you anymore.
From now on,
we are brother and sister.
24K pure-gold brother and sister, OK?
I agree with both hands.
Zheng Li,
haven't we agreed to be brother and sister?
Why do you
still cuddle and hug me?
My hands are here.
I was kidding.
All right,
I've got more bargaining chips against you later on.
Yiling,
I wish you happy together.
I'm off.
I'm going.
Mr. Zheng.
Ling Xi.
Mr. Zheng,
it's been a long time since you treated me to dinner.
Mr. Zheng, rest assured.
I went to see Zheng Li just now.
Happy ending.
OK.
Why are you giving me that look?
I didn't go to F38.
I didn't step into your office on F38.
This is public area.
I can step on it as I like.
I've got things to do. I'm very busy.
I'm off.
Mr. Zheng,
Let's have dinner alone later on.
OK, OK.
I'm off.
She's gone.
It seems you are the only one to give me a treat.
I don't have the appetite.
Someone was given a cold shoulder,
he must be very upset.
She's free to do whatever she likes.
She'll know the pain
once she bumps into hurdles and has her head battered.
Do you not know the pain?
It serves her right.
You have a sharp tongue but a tender heart.
You meant to show concern,
but ended up lecturing her.
Do you get a kick out of
lecturing others?
You look as if
you can see right through me,
but do you understand me?
I don't, I don't.
99% not.
Ling Xi is on such good terms with me,
aren't you jealous?
No matter how close she is to you,
she doesn't call you dad.
Just one step away.
Let's talk about something serious.
Ling Xi did quite well this time,
a lot better than she did last time.
She's as good as her word.
She sold her house and her car
to pay the debt.
Seen from the result,
a failure is a failure.
She must come forward.
Let's see it from another perspective.
She's just encountered some minor setbacks
on her way to success.
Both of you are holding out stubbornly
and don't admit your mistakes to each other.
If she doesn't take the initiative,
can't you do it instead?
I'm her father.
Why should I give in first?
-Come to think of it… -Well…
Go ahead.
I'm here to cancel my holidays.
I'd like to cut short my holidays
and get back to work early.
As to what happened last time…
There are some upcoming meeting procedures
and I've synced them up with Amy.
I'll go and do my work.
How do you like it?
Hot and spicy.
Yummy, yummy.
It has an antique beauty.
So nice.
As a matter of fact,
every old town looks the same.
It doesn't matter they are the same.
What matter is I've been there,
which is more important.
Another wish fulfilled.
I'm happy.
Lu Ziyue?
Isn't this name
very Chinese,
very special
and very archaistic?
Do you want to have a husband like him?
No.
This is already in the past tense.
I have a new target now.
My target is
to find another Chinese husband.
Why are you in a rush
to get married at such a young age?
Not really.
I'm not in a rush.
Anyway, I'm just looking for one first,
and I'll marry him once I find him and have dated long enough.
What do you look for in a husband?
First,
he must be a man who was born and bred in China.
He mustn't be overseas Chinese.
50% of the Chinese population
meets this condition.
Second,
he must know how to cook Chinese dishes.
This is an acquired skill
which is easy to learn.
What's more,
the most important thing is
he must not be a workaholic
or an eager beaver whose sole purpose of life
is work.
He must
have the good qualities of
traditional Chinese men like my dad.
He loves his family,
takes care of his wife
and is there to see his little baby grow up as a good daddy
and a good husband.
The tens of thousands of qualities you look for
are the exact opposite of me.
You
have the words
"I want to work" written on your face.
Is work
more important to you than family?
Don't worry.
I will not cling to you.
Marshmallow.
What's up?
Do you want snacks again?
No.
I'm playing Bingo Crush.
If
I could live
in a dessert shop
where I could have so many snacks every day,
how happy that would be!
Do you even want to eat the stuff
in the game?
No.
Dad, mom,
haven't we agreed to
have a video call at a regular time every week?
Your dad forgot the network password
and he wants to ask you.
I'll send it to you later.
That's it for now.
Bye.
Chu Shi,
where are you?
Why is your background moving?
We are…
outside.
In the car.
In the car?
Whose car?
My classmate,
my classmate.
The Asian classmate
you mentioned yesterday?
The one you
danced square dance with yesterday?
Give your phone to him.
Let me say hello to him.
He…
He's caught a cold today,
it's inconvenient for him to talk.
-Hello. -Damn it, damn it.
I am Ling Yu.
Turns out he's a South Korean classmate.
How are you?
Ling Yu,
can I talk to you in English?
OK.
Where are you going?
We went camping with our schoolmates,
now we are on the way back.
We are getting close to the university.
Hi, Ling Yu,
you speak elegant English.
Thank you, uncle.
But I need to improve my pronunciation
so I asked Chu for help.
It's great.
You can help each other at university.
Now we need to get on the bus.
So goodbye.
OK.
Goodbye.
I didn't know you have hidden skills.
I hope your parents
don't get angry if they know I ganged up with you
to cheat them.
No way.
My parents don't even know
I'm in China.
Strawberries, big and sweet!
Excuse me,
how much is it for half a kilo?
20 Yuan a box.
I'll have a box please.
OK.
Look,
authentic and fresh strawberries.
-Thank you. -Take a look.
Please enjoy.
So fragrant.
I want to eat them right away.
Unclean food doesn't make one ill.
Chu Shi.
Don't rush.
Let me pick a big and sweet one for you.
Chu Shi!
Now I know how it feels to have a pet,
but how do I present it?
I go up hill and down dale just to meet you here.
I want to unravel the riddle you buried deep for me.
What a pity that
we didn't meet earlier.
Be sure to keep my heart that I have nowhere to place.
You are like ripples on placid waters of a lake.
Your every expression can pull my heart.
How magical this is.
Master, you've had a long day.
You are an untold secret in my heart.
When you get closer to me.
When I hold you in my arms
and when we have no one to depend on in our old age,
I'll always treat you like a delicate treasure.
When you have every confidence in it.
When I grow old with you.
Maybe that's the point of my life.
Mowgli,
thank you for staying up late with me.
Thank you.
Mowgli, thank you for staying up late with me.
I've got an idea.
You've woken up?
I've figured it out.
I know how to express
the affections between a pet and its owner.
What idea is it?
I don't know what your plan is,
but I'm sure
you can make it.
I know
apology won't make things better.
Only by doing something
can it make a difference.
Your talents and the clothes you designed
make people's eyes light up.
I hope this tailor-made
marketing plan
can let more people know
your original intention of the design
and the carrier of the story.
Of course,
most important of all,
to leave something for you and your cat.
These days I've been thinking
what the truest feeling is
between a pet and a human being.
I finally
found out last night.
It is companionship.
Not that we are their companions;
rather, they are ours.
So
I narrated it from a cat's perspective.
If I go away one day,
I'm not leaving;
I'll be in existence in another way instead.
I am by your side.
You can find me in the white clouds,
in the shade of trees
and in the winter wind.
Thanks. I've quite moved.
I also forgive you on behalf of my cat.
Did you make it?
Congratulations.
The studio thing
can be brought to a temporary close.
Great.
Now I
can finally
be a salted fish without any dreams.
Mowgli.
What's up?
It's good to have you around.
People have moved in over there so soon.
It's the same terrace,
but you see,
even if the terrace over there
is buried all in dust,
people over there
look like winners of life,
and me…
Why do you envy others?
Aren't you a winner of life?
You have me already.
Yes, yes, yes.
I forgot about you.
It's enough to only have you.
You have gunk in your eyes.
Look,
even their gait is lighter than ours.
Yes.
People who can afford to rent that kind of house
surely walk as light as wind.
Let's not bother about them.
I'm happy as long as you are with me.
I'm happy with you by my side.
I'll throw you downstairs.
One, two, three.
Who's walking as light as wind and a winner of life?
I almost collapsed under the pressure of life.
Hello,
Li,
this is Yiling.
Are you planning to rent a house recently?
I've rented
an ultra-luxury three-bedroom house recently.
It'll be perfect
if we can share it.
I have no choice.
I'm poor and picky,
I almost didn't manage to rent a house.
Fortunately, I found this house on special offer.
You are interested?
Three family members plus a golden retriever?
Forget it.
The landlord doesn't want pets in the house.
I'm sorry.
That's a pretty good area,
I know.
You've bought a house?
Congratulations.
Hello,
this is Yiling.
I wish you happy new year in advance.
You got married?
Didn't you just get married last year?
Divorced?
It's good to get a divorce.
I can understand perfectly how you feel.
Don't be together if you are not right for each other.
Next week?
I'll be on a business trip next week.
I may not be able to make it to your wedding.
Wish you a happy wedding in advance.
It nearly cost me a red envelope.
Mr. Meng, where do you want to
rent a house
at such a price?
It can't be better.
No, your offer is too low.
It won't work for me in that case.
Just forget it then.
Bye.
Hi,
Wenwen,
are you looking for a rental house recently?
Have you found a right one?
I've just rented a suitable three-bedroom house.
It's quite good.
If we rent it together,
we'll share the rent,
isn't it a deal?
Some people suddenly become rich, and some suddenly poor.
This is a fair world indeed.
Thanks.
We
can also return from the suddenly poor state
to the suddenly rich state.
Now I
must think carefully
about my way forward.
I must not fall into the same old trap again.
So comfy.
But
it'll be more comfy if I can have a bottle of water now.
Is it good?
Mowgli,
I don't have to do anything now.
I'm so happy with you by my side.
All
you have to do is lie down comfortably.
I'll do everything for you.
This is sheer impropriety!
At twenty to nineteen,
you stand across the road
in grey hooded coat reaching below the knees.
You come up to me,
with your head down and eyes narrowed.
With the sun behind you, you smile not saying a word.
The cool wind, the subtle night;
the tipsy street, the smiling eyes;
You tenderly hold my hands and look at me, blanking out.
At twenty to nineteen,
you stand across the road
in grey hooded coat reaching below the knees.
You come up to me,
with your head down and eyes narrowed.
With the sun behind you, you smile not saying a word.
The cool wind, the subtle night;
the tipsy street, the smiling eyes;
I slightly turn my head and look at you, blanking out.
The warm hands, the glimmering moon,
the dim light, and the tiny face.
You tenderly hold my hands and look at me, blanking out.
