Love You Like The Mountain And Ocean
Episode 21
Bro,
tell me...
Keep quiet in here.
You're still here studying?
Do you know that Xia Ruining
has already dropped out?
So...
you knew?
You knew everything?
Ye Lin,
by the time you read this letter,
I've already left Xiling University.
Yes,
I filed the application for dropping out as fast as I could,
without any obstacles.
For I'm the daughter of Xia Sinian and Ning Mo,
I have certain privileges which Shen Zhen despised.
How ridiculous!
I've never admitted the fact that I had privileges.
And it doesn't keep me from
taking advantage of them.
I still want to tell you that
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry
for once saying I had feelings for you.
That was impulsive
irresponsible,
and wayward.
I've done whatever I felt like on a whim
without thinking about
the significance those words held.
When I came to my senses,
I realized how childish I was.
It must have perplexed you a lot.
So...
I'm sorry.
I dropped out.
I left
because of my family.
I wanna go be with my dad and mom.
This might be the most thought-out decision I made
ever since I was old enough to make decisions.
I know what a precious opportunity it is to study here,
but it's still no more precious than my parents.
Ye Lin,
maybe we will see each other again.
Someday we'll have matured enough
to handle all the pressure,
we might meet again.
For what it's worth,
I've always hoped I would
have a big brother like you.
Goodbye.
Take care.
You've read it for a long time.
This letter is not that long.
It's not?
It's short.
Why do I find it
so long?
If my heart can't find its shelter
What a pity.
She didn't mention me once in her letter.
The crazier we are, the longer we remember. It's painful, but I'm still missing you
No one is irreplaceable
Time will tell you who is a guest
If you don't even love yourself
What happiness can you get then?
But I'm still not resigned, stuck with you
This sleepless night of the city
Shen Lian has a song for you
Why would she understand?
The comfort you really need
If it's unbearable
Perhaps losing can be a way to happiness
Tomorrow everything will be better
Dean Gu,
thank you for letting me know.
Could you hold off the process for couple of days?
I'm heading back right now.
Thanks, thanks.
Thank you very much.
OK, bye.
Mo.
Why?
Why is Ruining...
dropping out?
Don't worry,
I'm calling her now.
Dad.
Mom.
I'm here.
Lu Huahua,
the scores came out.
You did fine in the exam.
Fine?
You are exactly where you were last time,
not worse.
Be specific!
You're still the last one.
I'm already at the bottom!
How could it get any worse?!
I'm not like Xia Ruining,
who can switch college that easily.
Xia Ruining,
I won't care your shit anymore.
Didn't she leave you all the snacks?
And plush toys,
and some home appliances that banned in the dorm.
Why you blame her then?
You think my friendship with her
is just maintained by snacks and toys?
Shallow!
Childish!
Anyway,
I don't wanna care for her anymore.
Alright then,
I'm sure you
don't wanna know about her grades, right?
Right, I don't.
I don't wanna know at all.
But,
never mind,
you can tell me if you want.
I'm not that bossy.
Besides, everyone has the right of free speech,
right?
Come on. Tell me.
Tell me.
The first place, Ye Miao.
Ye Miao?
Genius!
The second,
is me.
Shen Zhen's score has been canceled,
looks like you had the most to gain.
Not bad, not bad.
Good for you, good!
Great!
The third place is..
Tell me about you-know-who, quick!
The third place...
Tell me about Xia Ruining!
Xia Ruining is the third place.
I thought we were gonna be ranking in the bottom together.
She studied hard secretly!
I knew it,
you're saying that you blame her,
but deep down you're so happy for her, aren't you?
Don't worry.
You've talked to her on the phone.
How's her paperwork for the transfer going?
It's done.
Starting next semester,
she'll officially become
our former classmate.
Actually, the archaeology department of Yuehuang University is not bad.
How is it not bad?
It's mediocre.
I don't understand.
Uncle Xia is staying in Yuehuang
for just one project,
why do they need to move the whole family there?
So strange.
And leaving the entire Xia residence
in aunt Cai's care alone.
Aunt Cai is so nice,
but Shen Zhen...
It feels like she's occupying their home.
Xia Ruining,
you'll wait and see,
I'm gonna catch up to you!
Wait till next semester's final!
Chen Mo,
let's go!
Lu Huahua,
it's almost vacation time.
You don't have to start studying hard today.
I'm hungry.
I'm going to the canteen.
Hurry!
Mom.
You're home.
Mom,
I heard it was you who helped Shen Zhen with her problems.
Why you ask me such trivial things, you just got back,
is it important?
So it's true,
isn't it?
It is.
Why?
How did you know Shen Zhen?
Why did you suddenly help her?
She's the special scholarship winner
of our blue aid foundation.
Of course I know her.
Not only do I know her,
I think she has great potential
that worth cultivating.
She's the kind of talent the foundation needs.
Mom.
Ye Lin,
you used to remind me that
don't stay at home all the time
and embrace new life, develop some interests instead.
Now, I just have a good start with
helping a college student,
I didn't hurt anyone.
Don't tell me you have a problem with that.
Mom.
Bro.
You knew Shen Zhen was...
None of my business.
Bro, I'll be in the study.
Well, don't think too much of it.
Have some water.
What do you want for dinner? I'm cooking.
Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday to me.
Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday to you!
Happy birthday!
Ruining,
make a wish.
Dad,
mom,
thank you for being here with me,
Thank you for your trust and supporting
unconditionally,
and respect all of my decisions.
Actually, I want you to know
that there is someone
I like a lot.
He's hiding in the deepest corner of my heart.
He's there for me through joy and sorrow,
he made my heart sing for the first time in my life.
However,
I don't regret choosing to leave him for now.
OK, blow the candles!
For this was the only thing I could do
to protect our family,
protect my mom.
I'm keeping this secret,
acting like nothing has happened.
Shen Zhen might think she won,
but who cares?
You two are
the most important people to me.
Dad,
mom,
my birthday wish is
for you both to be healthy and happy,
together forever.
A young dove is flying in the sky
Flying through our heartbeats and embrace
We didn't understand
Why tears started falling before we can sing this song
Our backpack is getting heavier
We didn't understand
Time flies, nonstop, waits for no one
We lost faith on what we're chasing along the way
Walking aimlessly
Forgot what we should've hold on to
Ruining,
someone's here to see you.
Come on out.
Coming.
And there is someone
Someone we should never let go
Mr. Cheng,
we dug up a great deal today,
all bits and pieces though.
Help me up.
I think you should carry some ointment with you
in case of need.
It's fine,
not...
Ruining,
you're skinnier.
Ruining,
you've been staying at the hotel on the base lately?
It's very close to the dig site,
the commute is short.
Who could've thought
the other half of the Landscape Painting
might be hidden in the devil's grottoes in Yuehuang?
Yeah.
Every time when I think of the fact that
the Landscape Painting might finally reemerge,
I feel so excited.
My parents are so excited as well.
Uncle Xia's condition...
I know
there's nothing
I can say now
to make the situation any better.
It won't be a secret for much longer.
Actually,
more and more people came to visit him these past few months.
There were fellow archaeologists,
his former students,
his old friends,
close friends...
I could tell,
everyone felt sad for him.
He, of all people, is
the most strong-willed,
the most optimistic one.
Have you ever considered going to
a bigger hospital in Beijing or Shanghai?
I could be of help.
Been there, done that.
But there was
nothing they can do either.
My mom is staying with him in the hospital,
I'm going over there tonight.
Like I just said,
he is now the most strong-willed and most optimistic one.
He wanted to come back.
He said,
it was his life-long dream
to see the Landscape Painting
being excavated and restored.
But I knew
it was not his dream,
it was my mom's.
As long as
my mom gets to fulfill her dream,
he'd be very happy.
Enough about me.
Ye Lin,
how are you?
Is it tiring studying in grad school?
And the reason you came is...
I'm staying near the hotel too.
I'm here to offer my assistance.
I'm a volunteer with the restoration
of the Landscape Painting.
Besides,
this time
I didn't come here by myself.
Ye Miao
didn't come with me.
I know.
Ruining,
I know there's something
inappropriate for me to say now.
But if I get one chance
to be impulsive in life,
Then
I want it to be
right now,
at this moment.
Ye Lin,
I...
Ruining,
let me finish.
Two years ago, when you left,
you wrote a letter,
Ye Miao was never mentioned in it.
You got good grades this year.
But it still hard to say
whether you can stay on
as a member of faculty
after graduation.
Not to mention you have a record of demerit,
it's gonna be difficult to make it happen.
I believe you have the resource to pull it off.
I do, as a matter of fact.
The question is, are you worth my efforts or not?
To be honest,
the leverage you had
was somewhat useful in the past two years.
But it has already outlived its usefulness now.
If you believed it's no longer useful to you,
you wouldn't have recommended me for this project.
I am really appreciated.
Even if I won't get to stay in the university after graduation,
having an opportunity like this right now
is gonna look good in my resume.
You're a clever girl.
I meant what I said.
If you ever find me useful in the future,
Please let me know.
Now I'm just a student,
I can't be much of help,
but I'm grateful enough to do whatever needs to be done.
After you settled in the project team,
keep an eye on Ning Mo for me.
You're familiar with her,
she won't suspect if you get close to her.
Don't worry,
I understand.
What do you understand?
Don't presume that I thought she'd
steal anything from me.
Yicheng is with me,
so is his affection.
I'm having you keep an eye,
just in case.
Yes.
Xia Ruining.
It's Xia Ruining.
Slow down.
A family of seductresses.
Hello?
Mom.
Yeah,
I'm near the hotel.
OK.
I'll get it for you.
I'll be back shortly.
Bye.
Ruining,
my mom's here.
I'm gonna do some shopping for her.
Mrs. Ye's here too?
Yeah, my parents are here.
You go ahead.
OK.
I'll call you later.
I'll go to the hospital with you.
OK.
Bye.
Ruining, you're back early too.
Yeah, aunt Jiang.
But you just said too,
who else?
Your mom.
I saw your mom this morning.
This morning?
She's back for a meeting?
No.
Our survey team had
a routine meeting this morning.
Your mom didn't come.
Maybe she's here to get some change of cloths.
Ruining,
look at you,
both your mom and you have lost some weight lately.
We colleagues at the relics and archaeology institute
have discussed it.
We decided to set up a rotation group,
we can take turns to go to the hospital for you two,
so you two don't have to
travel back and forth all day,
it's too tiring.
Thank you, aunt Jiang.
But it's fine,
I'm not tired.
It's alright.
You don't need to worry about that.
We have already decided.
You go ahead,
I got some errands to run, I gotta go.
Talk to you later.
OK.
Ruining,
I saw your mom this morning.
She's at the hotel.
Hello?
Ruining, you're back.
I'm...
I'm outside, doing some shopping.
I'll be back very soon.
Hello?
Ruining?
Mom.
Ruining, I...
Ruining.
I meant...
Ruining.
Ruining, listen to me.
Your dad's in the hospital,
let's go to the hospital.
Ruining!
Ruining.
Today I've come to realize
the true meaning of the words
hypocritical and adulterous.
Ruining.
Your mom.
I saw her at the hotel this morning.
Ruining.
I'm...
I'm outside, doing some shopping.
I'll be back very soon.
Mom.
I've kept this secret
for two years.
I thought I brought you to Xiling,
to be with my dad,
that everything would go back to normal.
Ruining,
what are you talking about?
What two years?
You know Mr. Ye.
Why are you still lying?
Stop lying to me!
I came here for you,
I switched college for you.
I stopped talking to Ye Miao for you!
No...
Mom!
My dad is lying in a hospital bed,
and you,
you and this man are using work as an excuse,
you're in a hotel room...
We are not!
Not doing what?
I hate you!
I'll never forgive either of you!
Never!
-Ruining! Ruining! - Ruining!
Ruining!
- Let go of me! - Ruining!
Ruining!
I'll go, I'll go!
Let me!
I'll go.
Don't worry.
Ruining!
Ruining.
Dad!
Ruining!
Ruining.
Dad!
Ruining!
What happened, Ruining?
Let go of me!
Dad!
Ruining!
Let go of me!
Ruining!
Xia Ruining!
Let me explain!
Let me explain it to you.
Yes, I admit that
I like your mother.
But nothing happened between us.
I respect her very much!
We didn't do anything inappropriate.
Trust me, Ruining,
OK?
Okay? Ruining.
Dad.
Ye Lin,
Why is it so filthy between people?
Ruining!
I hate you.
I hate you!
Ruining! Ruining!
Ruining!
Mo!
Professor Ning!
Mo!
Mo.
Ruining.
Calm down.
Ruining.
Loot at me.
Ruining.
Ye Lin.
My dad's in the hospital.
Ruining.
My mom's there too.
Ruining.
They promised that
we would celebrate my birthday together next year.
The whole family, together.
I'll go look for them.
Let go of me!
I'm going to the hospital!
I wanna be with my mom and dad!
We will be happy!
We will be very happy!
Let go of me!
Ruining!
