My name is Shi Jian, born in 1985.
I fell in love for the first time during my university days.
But it ended in failure.
In 2006, my mother died and I was full of grief.
In the Spring of 2012, I met Jiacheng.
We fell in love and eventually got married.
There was a newfound hope in my life.
After marriage, we started our own business together,
working hard toward our goals.
Our lives were content and happy.
Today is our wedding anniversary
and also our 1,676th day of loving each other.
- Wifey... - I'm preparing to fly to Santiago to meet up with him.
- But no one would have thought,
that an unexpected accident would take place very soon.
[2 days before]
Hubby.
Hello, Hubby.
Wifey, what are you doing?
You appear to be in a very happy mood.
I just got home. Hey, we're going to see each other soon!
I looked at the weather. The weather tomorrow is good.
So my flight will definitely be on time.
It's about 10 to 20 degrees (Celsius) in Santiago, the temperature changes a lot during the day. Remember to bring warm clothes.
Okay, don't worry.
Oh, and don't forget to bring your windbreaker and that hat I got you.
Have you finished packing?
I'm still having trouble deciding what to bring.
I knew you weren't done packing!
Hurry up and pack. You can buy anything else you didn't pack, over here.
Really? Hubby, you're the best.
Honey, I want to show you the sunrise.
I don't know how I fell in love with you
or when or where.
My love is straightforward and is not complicated or arrogant.
I love you,
because I don't know what other choices I have.
The few sentences you just recited, I haven't read them yet.
It's okay. In less than 52 hours, you'll be able to read them.
At that time, I'll get to see you as well.
Hubby... when I arrive,
I want to give you a present.
What kind of present?
It's a secret.
Why are you being so mysterious?
Bye-bye. Remember to miss me. Love you. Love you.
Bye-bye.
Shi Jian, how are you? This is Chang Jin.
I'm out. May I come see you?
Chang Jin, my college boyfriend.
Because of the Grand City Project, he was sent to prison.
He just got released from prison.
Why is he looking for me?
[1 day before]
You haven't changed at all.
How is that possible? That's a terrible opening line.
It's been 10 years, how is it possible that nothing has changed?
When I was inside, I had some friends see how you were doing.
I knew you were doing well, so I didn't worry while I was inside.
If I could turn back time,
I wouldn't have wasted these past 10 years.
I've definitely listened to your advice.
Seeing you happy,
I am filled with motivation.
Don't worry. You'll be successful. I've always thought that.
I want to say, if
time could start over...
I'm going to be a mom.
Time can't turn back.
And there are no "what ifs."
So we should look ahead.
All of the past memories
can't compare to the beautiful future, right?
Tonight, I will fly over to reunite with him
and celebrate this new life.
He really is... a lucky man.
Actually, I'm a really lucky woman.
Congratulations.
[12 hours before] (Transit Airport Lounge)
- Wifey. - Hello, Hubby.
I've already arrived at the lounge and I'm waiting for my connecting flight.
It's cold. Did you bring your jacket?
Don't worry. I'm dressed very warmly.
When you get on the plane, send me a text.
Okay, I'll call you later. Bye-bye.
Excuse me.
Yes. May I help you?
Orange juice. No ice, please.
- Okay, anything else? - No. Thank you.
Excuse me.
A cup of coffee, please.
Okay.
Mrs. Ye.
Hello, hello, hello.
Do you remember me?
Of course, I remember you.
You're famous. How could I not know who you are?
Is it okay for me to sit here?
Of course. Please, sit.
Yi Pei, CEO of EMAO, a workaholic.
He was once featured in a short story that my college friend wrote.
He really admires Jiacheng's designs,
but I don't know if they have worked together before.
- If I remember correctly, we've only met once before. - Yes.
You've actually known Jiacheng longer than me.
I'm really curious what Jiacheng was like back then.
This could be your last chance to decide.
I agree with your thoughts, but the damage is already done.
Someone needs to take responsibility.
I believe in you. You are a responsible person.
Sometimes taking responsibility
means having to give up.
If he had helped Yi Qindong,
it's possible that I wouldn't be in the position I am in today.
Hasn't he brought this up to you before?
I don't remember.
He may have brought it up, but I didn't pay attention and forgot.
He and I have met each other a few times before,
but it has always been for work.
Then, was he as perfect then as he is now?
Like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon, he started out as a caterpillar.
By the looks of it, something must have happened between the two of you.
So, what exactly is the story of what happened?
When Jiacheng first met you, that's when the real story started.
But I want to know more about Jiacheng from before he met me.
Like all the foreign films such as
Star Wars, Spiderman, Batman, and Superman. They all have prequels.
Then, you must have never watched the prequels to those films.
How did you know?
Because all prequels are never better than in the first film.
Excuse me. Can I have some water?
Sure. Please wait a second.
Are you not feeling well or...?
No.
- Your water. - Okay.
Thank you.
Sorry, I cannot drink it cold.
I would like some warm water, please.
I shouldn't be drinking it cold.
- You're pregnant! - Yes.
- Congratulations! - Thank you.
Be right back.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
But I haven't told Jiacheng yet.
I'm planning to give him a surprise.
I've only been asking about Jiacheng, I forgot to ask how you're doing.
Are you going to Santiago for the exhibition, too?
Yes, but there are some other things as well.
So, is EMAO is interested in expanding outside of the country?
Actually, EMAO has already expanded outside of the country.
It's just that we haven't deeply investigated the areas in South America.
But perhaps this could lead to an excellent proposal.
Perhaps, you and Jiacheng can collaborate.
[Five minutes before]
What's wrong?
What happened?
Fasten your seat belt.
Don't worry. The turbulence will pass very soon.
- Excuse me. - I've got it on already.
- Please fasten your seat belt. Thank you. - Already got it on.
Seat belt, Ma'am.
Do you know how I recognized you?
When you were video chatting with Jiacheng, coincidentally I was right behind you.
I was thinking since we haven't seen each other for so long,
even if we were the only two Chinese people in the lounge,
you wouldn't have been able to tell that I was Mrs. Ye.
I still haven't told Jiacheng I'm having his child.
Shi Jian.
How come she doesn't respond?
Mrs. Ye is in a comatose state, but her mind is still conscious.
Talking to her will definitely help her.
Shi Jian, can you hear me talking?
My body felt incredibly heavy.
I could hear Jiacheng talking, but I was paralyzed.
I don't want to die.
I still have a lot of things I haven't done.
I still haven't told Jiacheng that we will have a child.
Shi Jian, quickly wake yourself up.
[Year 2006]
What's going on?
Where is this?
Pineapple, pineapple, pineapple, pineapple...
Honey!
Why are you here?
I have always been here.
Stop lazing about in bed.
Registration starts at 11:30, it's almost 11:00 already!
What registration?
Are you not feeling well? The examination application.
What day?
Shut up.
- Are you awake yet? - What are you doing?
What are you doing?
What are YOU doing?
Oh my god. What am I wearing?
And what's with these shoes?
Is this your first day looking in the mirror? This is what you wear every day.
This isn't right. I must be on the airplane still.
Airplane? What airplane?
What are you looking for?
Are you done joking around?
I'm only taking it because you wanted to take it. If you're not taking one then I won't either.
No wait, tell me. What day is it?
The 5th.
- What month? - November.
- What year? - 2006.
What 2006?
It's 2006.
No, it's already 2016.
Take a look for yourself. Look at this milk tea's manufacturing date. [2006... Expires 2025]
That can't be. How is this possible? It shouldn't be like this.
I've already taken it, why should I take it again?
And you don't look like this now.
That's too ugly isn't it?
What is she wearing?
This is my college dormitory.
If this is a dream, there should be a flaw.
But whether it's the books or the stationery, they all look too real.
No, no, no! This must be a dream. I have to quickly wake up.
Perhaps, if I jump into the water I will awaken.
Quickly, save her.
What happened?
Quickly, save her.
They saved her.
Come on! Give me your hand.
Why...
Why can't I go back?
And Yi Pei, where is he?
Yes, I must find Yi Pei.
[EMAO]
President Yi.
Yi Pei!
Who are you? Making such a scene.
I'm Shi Jian. I'm Mrs. Ye.
You.
Don't you remember me? I'm Shi Jian. I'm Ye Jiacheng's wife.
Forget it! That's enough! Move aside.
- President Yi! - Stop following us!
What time is it already? Why are you just getting here now?
So, the illegitimate workaholic son of our family,
has also learned to be lazy. Right?
Oh, I remember now. You've got a lot of free time.
Uncle, it just so happens I want to talk to you.
I know what you want to talk to me about.
Isn't it about the Grand City project?
Grand City? So he's the coordinator of the Grand City Project, Yi Qindong.
Back then, Chang Jin followed him
and was imprisoned for 10 years.
But real estate isn't for you to deal with anymore.
Stop sticking your nose into everything and mind your clothing manufacturing.
I built EMAO Real Estate myself.
If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask.
I know what you're thinking.
You're thinking that if I don't manage it well,
you can get the real estate company back again.
I advise you to get rid of that thought.
I will never spit out... what I've already eaten.
President Yi!
That's enough! Stop following us!
Right now, Yi Pei can't recognize me.
My child, my husband, my home:
all disappeared just like that.
I seem to have entered a nightmare I can't wake up from.
This nightmare is called 2006 and I'm 21.
I haven't had a child yet and I haven't met Jiacheng.
I haven't gotten the complete and happy family yet.
My home. Me and Jiacheng's home, Number 32, is right here.
I'm home!
You have to control me strictly. You can't let me eat another piece of chocolate!
It feels so nice to be close to you.
I wish Jiacheng would wake me up
and tell me that all of this wasn't real.
Jiacheng, where are you?
Xiao Bai, you're withering.
You're finally back!
My granny, why didn't you bring your cell phone with you when you left the house?
I was looking for you the whole afternoon! What were you doing?
Granny?
Do you believe in time travel?
I believe in it!
Which year did you travel to and how did you get back?
Didn't even change dynasties.
Then, how did you get back? Did you go to the future?
It seems like I came back from the future.
Sis, what's wrong with you? You've been like this all day. What's up?
Then, which year did you come back from? 2022?
I told you not to read so many novels. They're all lying to you!
2016.
Fine. You want to continue this, okay tell me.
Then tell me, what's happened to us by 2016.
I am very happy.
You... not so much.
Bullshit! Watch your crow's beak! (T/N: Idiom means "Don't jinx me.")
Pick up the phone.
What phone?
Your phone! What do you mean what phone?
You must have gone stupid. Here, it's your mom. Pick it up.
My mom?
Yes, why are you making such a fuss about nothing? Weren't you going home today?
My mom?
Hello?
Hello, Mom?
I can't believe I forgot that in 2006, my mother was still alive.
It took 10 years to heal from the pain of losing my mother.
This time, I can finally see her again.
I'm coming!
Xiao Jian!
Mom!
What's wrong? Did you suffer at school? Why are you hugging me so tightly?
I'm happy.
Come! Let me look at you.
Why are you crying?
Didn't we just see each other last weekend?
Really, you're like a little girl. When will you grow up?
I made some pig trotter soup. Don't cry and come have some.
Let me hug you a little longer!
What's going on?
I missed you too much.
Did you spend all your allowance money again?
Couldn't be! It's only the start of the month.
In 1993, Father left me.
That year, I was only 8.
In my memory, its always been my mother accompanying me.
In 2006, my mother's departure caused my life to hit an all-time low.
Since I have a chance to start over,
can I do something?
Xiao Jian, come and drink soup.
Mom.
Drink it.
It smells so good!
Really, you didn't even tell me you were coming home for dinner when we were talking on the phone.
I didn't prepare anything, so just drink some soup. This is pig trotter soup.
Didn't you say you wanted bigger breasts?
What are you doing?
Last week, you said you wanted bigger breasts.
You have to respect others' hard work.
I don't want bigger breasts anymore.
It still won't be any use if they're bigger.
Fine, fine! The one that said she wanted bigger breasts was you and the one that doesn't want bigger breasts is still you.
How's school going? Did something happen?
Mom, let's go get a checkup tomorrow. Okay?
What's wrong? Where are you not feeling well?
It's not me. It's you who should get the checkup.
What do I need a checkup for?
I did it at the beginning of the year. Once a year is enough.
Look, it's already been half a year.
Moreover, normal checkups don't reveal this.
Reveal what? What can't they reveal?
Come! Let me give you a massage.
What are you doing?
Mom, I just want to tell you
if your body
feels differently than it would normally,
even just a little, very little,
you have to tell me. Okay?
Why are you worrying so much? Your mother is still young!
Mom, I want to see you become an old lady.
With a head full of white hair, a face full of wrinkles, wearing bifocals,
and also chewing on pumpkin seeds with the dentures I helped you get.
Knock on wood! What's up with you today?
I think you have some problems.
- Do we need to find you a psychologist to go to? - Sure!
How about we go together to get checked out tomorrow?
You get a full-body check-up and I'll go to the psychologist.
How's that sound? I'll take it as a yes!
You're really a little weird today.
It's like you're saying goodbye to me.
No, it's reuniting.
Mom, it's reuniting after a long time.
We see each other every week! What do you mean reuniting after a long time?
Do you want some more soup? I'll add some for you.
Thank you, Mom!
Mom still has six months before discovering
her late stage breast cancer.
The disease is latent in her body.
She hasn't had any symptoms.
After Mom passed away, I left this place.
That is probably around a year from now.
I couldn't stand being in this house another second.
I even rented it out.
And I went to England to do my graduate studies.
[The number you have dialed does not exist.]
[Hubby]
What are you doing? You dare to come here now?
What gives you the right to use your own values to ask me?
- Wait... you-- - Me what? Pretending you don't recognize me?
What kind of expression is that?
I want to say that if time could turn back,
if time could reverse and if we could go back to the past...
Chang Jin, oh Chang Jin. You and your jinxed crow beak.
What do you mean "If time could go back
to 10 years ago?" Now it really happened!
We haven't broken up yet?
Break up!
Oh, I understand it now. So you didn't pick up my calls
and didn't reply to my texts because you want to break up, right?
Fine, then explain.
What did I, Chang Jin, do wrong to you, Shi Jian,
that you'd want to break up with me?
Oh, we haven't yet.
Are you playing with me? Does this make you happy?
Let me say it this way, Shi Jian. I know you're doing this for my benefit
and I know you're worried about me.
But don't worry. There will be no problems with this project.
You may not understand now. But once you start working in the future, you'll understand.
What project?
- Grand City. - Grand City?
Uh...
President Yi, Yi Qindong?
What's wrong with you today?
I remember now.
You haven't signed the contracts already, have you?
You looked at my contracts?
Why are you looking through my stuff?
President Yi gave me such an important project because he trusts me. There definitely won't be any problems with it!
No, no, no! Chang Jin,
I think we need to have a serious discussion about this.
I came here to talk to you. I've been standing here for half an hour and you didn't show up, but now I don't have time.
I need to go to work now. Wait for my call. We can talk, but no breaking up.
Wait for my call!
You are not allowed to break up.
Chang Jin, I really picked the right person.
You have done really well with the Grand City Project.
This is just the start. In the future, I'll give you more projects to handle.
That's great. Thank you, President Yi.
- President Yi, there's this issue. - Say it.
That purchasing company is not on the company's list.
The amount of steel required is so high.
Should I... go check around first?
What if...
I'm just saying "if" something happened,
I fear. I fear...
What are you going to look at? What problems could there possibly be?
When you repair a house, as long as the foundation is strong
and the main steel bars are of good quality,
the quality of the other materials can be a bit lower. There's no problem in that, right?
You don't have to worry about this.
That's right, too.
Wait! That's not right. The Engineering Supervisor
will come to inspect next month.
You don't have to worry about that, either.
Whoever you sign with, you are responsible for that company.
I only signed with Bancai Company and the construction unit.
That's right! Manage the matters you have in your own hands. Placate those whom you need to take care of.
Remember this. Don't let them cause any problems for EMAO.
Chang Jin, I take care of the people who work for me.
EMAO is so big, you don't have anything to worry about.
Even if you go back 10,000 steps, (T/N: In the worst-case scenario)
if something does happen, it wouldn't be you who would bear the responsibility.
I understand now. I am willing to work with you.
And also, I will follow you as you make your fortune.
That's not right. What do you mean follow me while I make a fortune?
We will make a fortune together.
No, no, no! I don't dare.
- Cheers, President Yi. I'll take care of it. - Cheers.
Okay.
[EMAO]
President Yi, Manager Chang from the real estate company
invited you to an architectural design exhibition.
He's the Chang Jin in charge of the Grand City Project, correct?
Right, that's him.
Yi Qindong hired him to be the general manager.
He has most of the final say in the Real Estate Department.
What do you think of this person?
What's there to say? He's Yi Qindong's lackey.
He'll do whatever Yi Qindong tells him to do.
If he doesn't butter up Yi Qindong, he won't be able to work for long.
Honestly speaking, he's just a puppet.
How's the progress of the Grand City Project?
It seems to be running smoothly.
It's all because we put down a good foundation, in the beginning, only to be stolen by that bastard.
Just thinking about it makes me angry.
He'd better pray that nothing goes wrong with the Grand City--
Nothing can go wrong with the Grand City Project.
This project concerns the dignity of the group.
If anything goes wrong, we will all look bad.
President Yi, then why do you think Chang Jin is inviting you to view the exhibition?
You are not involved with the real estate matters now.
The architectural design exhibition is sponsored by the corporation's charity fund, right?
Right.
I understand. The fund and the real estate
are all under Yi Qindong's command.
President Yi, he's trying to show you his power.
Chang Jin, this person...
Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him.
That's not worth it.
Huh?
I'll take it.
Jiacheng and I graduated from the same university.
We were five years apart.
I had just entered the school when he graduated.
We returned for a reunion here together once before.
He said...
I remember when I started school, it was from 1999 to 2000.
That year during New Year's,
everyone was looking forward to the first second of the 21st century.
I remember people were setting off fireworks from the roof of the tall building across from us. There were so many people.
I've been in that building before, too.
However, I went up there to play Mafia (A card game) with my classmates all night long.
The punishment for the loser was to sleep on the floor.
But everyone left and forgot about them.
So they slept there until the next morning.
That person was probably you, wasn't it?
Of course not!
