Edge to Happiness
Episode 23
-Put it in the middle. -It's hot.
Yes, it is.
Hey, listen.
When he is here
later,
don't always talk about
scholars, education etc.
It will freak him out.
Don't worry. I will not.
I will not because I know
whoever our elder daughter brings home
must be
the perfect son-in-law in my opinion.
-Right? -Right.
Qiao Bu.
Good morning.
What are you doing here?
Wait.
Why are you dressed like that?
What's the suit for?
Are you selling
-insurance to someone? -I...
But you are right in time.
Come and sit down.
Come and sit.
Look at those.
Have you seen it?
Your aunt has prepared
so many dishes.
Don't hurry away.
Stay for lunch.
And you can help me
check him. Soon
Man is bringing her
boyfriend here.
Tell me. Will he
be as handsome as me?
Don't worry.
He won't compete with you.
I will not dislike you
because of your look.
I've watched you
grow up from a kid.
He has to be handsome.
And his education background
has to match
this scholarly family of ours.
If not, why do you
think Man
would bring him home?
Right?
-Dad. -Man.
You said you'd
bring your boyfriend.
Where is he?
He is right here.
Qiao Bu?
Qiao Bu, I've watched
you grow up from a little kid.
Why have you suddenly
become her boyfriend?
Tell me the truth.
Is it
for some reason
that Man
has forced you to take other’s place by counterfeiting?
Dad, what are you talking about?
Qiao Bu and I are in love.
We have confessed to each other.
Confession means nothing.
Calm down.
How can I?
Qiao Bu, I have to
be straightforward with you.
Listen.
You can be friends.
But if you want to marry her,
it's impossible.
-Dad. -Why?
No reason.
You know
this family quite well.
I've been working as a teacher all my life.
My future son-in-law
has to be well-educated and learned.
Are you? Listen carefully.
It is impossible
for my daughter to marry you.
Mr. Su, what you just said
is not right.
Although I don't have a high degree,
I have knowledge.
I'm like a sponge
that absorbs whatever
that is knowledge.
If you are doubtful,
you can test me.
Well then,
don't blame me
-for embarrassing you. -Dad.
Don't talk.
Qiao Bu, here you go.
Most willow catkins have been blown away.
The next sentence is But there is no place where grows on sweet grass.
Here is your question. It's not from a poem of the Tang Dynasty
but of the Song Dynasty. Who wrote it?
Answer him.
Su Dongpo.
His grandpa was called Su Xu,
his father Su Xun,
his elder sister Su Baniang,
and his younger brother Su Zhe.
He had two wives and a concubine
both named Wang.
The first wife was Wang Fu.
The second was Wang Runzhi,
who was a younger cousin of Wang Fu.
His concubine had been a singer.
She was called Wang Zhaoyun.
Do you know
how many sons Su Dongpo had?
How many?
Four.
They were Su Mai, Su Dai, Su Guo and Su Dun.
The youngest son died
before his first birthday.
Mr. Su,
what do you know about black hole evaporation?
Do you know that there is no difference
between the inside and outside of a Kleinsche Flasche?
Do you know whether Schroedinger's cat
was dead or alive?
I know them all.
I don't have a high degree,
but I have knowledge.
Stop showing off in front of me.
I'm really pissed.
No matter how much you can memorize,
my daughter
will never marry you.
Get out.
Wait. Mr. Su.
Calm down, Mr. Su.
Mom, Dad has gone too far.
Yes. Man.
What my dad said was terrible.
Don't blame him.
How can I?
I only hate myself.
If I had a chance to go to school
and become a doctor,
your dad would not have
had objection like this.
What's so good with doctors?
It's him who values degrees, not me.
Don't worry. I will
be on your side.
No matter you like Qiao Bu or not,
when he visit us,
you can't treat him like that.
How did I treat him?
I was polite enough.
Qiao Bu?
He's got no talent or a good look.
How can I marry our daughter to him?
Only you will do that.
You haven't learned or experienced enough.
You always say he is a good boy all the time.
He is very kind.
What's the use of being kind?
You are knowledgeable?
I think Qiao Bu is good.
He's smart and honest.
He is true to Man.
What's wrong with him?
I haven't learned enough. I don't have knowledge.
I am not experienced.
Am I not good for this family?
Am I not good for you?
Right. I was wrong to say that.
I admit it. OK?
But I expect
our daughter to find
someone who deserves her.
Is it wrong?
You don't understand it.
I have intentionally
said those harsh words
to stop all his hopes
before he even tries.
In this way,
we won't have to waste our time and energy on him.
Ma Da,
I used all the methods
you have taught me.
But Mr. Su was not at all touched.
What can I do now?
It seems your enemy
has some strong defense.
If none of the methods worked,
you have to do it
in the simplest and most direct way.
Move them
through long-term efforts.
Change their view about you.
Brainwash them.
Corrupt their will
bit by bit.
What does it mean?
Haunt them.
How smart you are!
So why did you
want to marry Xiaoxiao
to He Han earlier?
What about his character?
I didn't know him
very well back then.
I just thought he
met the basic criteria.
If he hadn't passed the test.
I would not have agreed.
You just don't want to admit you were wrong.
Do as you wish,
and our daughters
will stay home
forever.
Are you happy about that?
What are you talking about?
How can I stop them?
Xiaoxiao said she wanted to leave home in pursuit of happiness
and love.
Did we hold her back?
When she still lived with us,
we could take care of her.
She is far away now.
Can we help her anymore?
We have no idea
how she's doing now.
Is she having a good time?
You are awake too.
How are you feeling now?
I'm fine.
Why am I hospitalized? I only tripped over.
Has the storm
affected the vineyard?
The vineyard is fine.
The doctor said you have been
tired out these days.
That's what caused the coma.
You'll be fine
if you rest for one or two days.
There is really nothing to do
at the vineyard now.
Just take a rest.
You know nothing about growing grapes.
How can I
leave such a big vineyard
to you alone?
If I have any trouble,
I can ask Mr. Li for help.
I can handle it.
Don't worry about it.
He Mu, as you have said,
we are partners.
From
the Victoria's Secret project at the beginning
to the vineyard now,
we have never abandoned each other.
Being partners
means we have to face difficulties together.
No matter what the difficulty is,
we should overcome it together.
If I lie here
when you are busy working at the vineyard,
What kind of partners are we?
I know what you mean.
But your health...
He Mu, I'm fine.
The grapes need to be harvested soon.
Now it is the critical time for us to make red wine
and save the He Family.
We can't give up.
We've got to hold on to the end.
Meiqi,
wait for me in the car.
I want to talk to He Han alone.
Several days ago, He Han visited me.
I told him
all the truth.
He is very anguished now.
He doesn't know how to face you.
Dad.
Dad, I'm sorry.
I misunderstood you.
I feel too ashamed to talk to you.
He Han.
Don't blame yourself.
I have caused
all these mistakes.
I have let you down.
I was so busy with my work
that I spent little time
taking care of you and your mother.
Deep down,
I always felt guilty
to you.
As you grow up,
I've tried everything to protect you
and to provide for your education.
However, no matter how hard I try,
it seems impossible
to make up for my mistake.
I have ruined your life.
Dad, it's my fault.
I have failed you.
I have ruined
the He's Group that you have worked so hard for.
If ruining the He's Group
can repair
the relationship between you and me,
let it be ruined.
Money and profits
are never more important
than family.
No matter
what mistake you have made,
as your father,
I will accept you
because you will always be my son.
I'm sorry, Dad.
You have done nothing wrong to me.
You should say sorry
to Meiqi.
She has been looking after you
all the time.
She has never treated you unfairly.
If you want to apologize,
you should apologize to her.
Mom.
He Han,
don't say anything.
No matter what you have done,
I will never blame you.
Because you are my son.
Mr. Su.
You have startled me.
Qiao Bu,
what are you doing here?
Mr. Su, please allow me
to be with Su Man.
I'm begging you.
I will kowtow.
What's that for?
Something is wrong with your brain?
Listen carefully, Qiao Bu.
Even if you hurt your head by kowtowing,
I will not agree.
Eh, Mr. Su.
You...
What time is it now?
Why isn't he back yet?
Doesn't he know we are meeting the client today?
Hello.
It's an important client today.
You've got to be here on time.
Don't worry.
We will make it work.
Mr. Su.
Qiao Bu, haven't I
told you
that you are not welcome to this family?
Get out.
Mr. Su, please let
me be with Su Man.
We are in love.
Qiao Bu, what are you doing?
Listen,
if you keep doing this,
I'll call the police.
I won't let you go unless you agree
to our marriage.
Aren't you ashamed?
As long as I can marry Su Man,
I don't care about shame.
Qiao Bu, it's useless.
I've told you
it can only work if you bring your doctoral degree.
Otherwise
it's useless to do anything.
Mr. Su,
I don't have a degree,
but I will be good to Su Man.
And I will look after
you and Mrs. Su.
Qiao Bu, listen to me.
Listen.
If you don't have a high degree,
you will not get a good job.
If you don't have a good job,
you can't make good money.
If you don't have money,
how can you make a living for Man?
I've told you
unless you come with a doctoral degree,
it will
never work.
Will a CCIE
certificate do?
What CCIE?
Don't try to fool me
with fancy abbreviations.
I've told you
only a doctoral degree will do.
Let me go.
No. Kill me.
Kill me then.
Your cellphone.
It's flashing.
Check who's calling.
What time is it?
Pick up.
Pick it up.
No.
It does not matter who calls.
Your permission matters.
OK. Get up.
Mr. Su, do you...
Get up.
Qiao Bu, I've watched
you grow up.
Mr. Su.
It won't work however perverse you are.
You can only marry Man
over my dead body.
Otherwise
it's impossible.
Mr. Su, why do you
value degrees so much?
-Hello. -Why aren't you here yet?
We've been here for a long time now.
Do you know what time it is now?
Do you want
the project at all?
Never mind. Do not come.
Hello. Hello.
Qiao Bu you bastard.
How dare you not answer my call?
Don't you know this client
means tens of thousands?
I just can't count on you on important matters.
Just don't come back again.
Or you'll see what I will do with you.
You... Don't you know
we have a meeting today?
Because of you,
we have lost a big client
and tens of thousands.
I don't care about big clients.
The most important
for me now
is to marry you.
I don't care about anything else.
Did you talk to Dad?
Su Man, do you think
I really suck?
I kneeled and begged.
Mr. Su still said
I can only marry you
over his dead body.
Dad is...
That is too much even for him.
Eh, where are you going?
Dad, why didn't you give your approval
when Qiao Bu came to you?
Because of it, I've lost a client
and the money.
I didn't approve. Maybe
I should have given my approval.
If he had a high degree,
why don't I approve?
Degree again.
Is it meaningful that you always talk about Qiao Bu's
education background?
Meaningless. It is meaningless.
You are now doing
this unpopular job
because of lack of a diploma.
What's wrong with our job?
Each of us has our own
way of life.
Dad, you have a diploma,
yet you are only a teacher
in a middle school.
What?
How dare you quarrel
with your dad
because of a boy?
I'm not quarreling with you.
I'm talking with you.
Qiao Bu does not have a diploma,
but he knows how to make cellphone apps. Do you?
I can't outspeak you.
But
I won't agree.
Dad, let me make myself
clear today.
I will marry no one but Qiao Bu.
Man, if you
step out of this house today,
never come back again.
Then I will not.
Man. Man.
Man, what's the matter?
Ask my dad.
What happened?
Man has run out.
What else other than Qiao Bu?
Qiao Bu?
He came just now.
He was shamelessly
holding my leg and
begging me to approve their marriage.
How can I approve it?
I was harsh on him.
He went to Man
and told her about it.
Man was incited
and came home to quarrel with me.
Good.
What did she say?
She said
she will marry no one but him.
Great. Man,
let's see if you dare come home again
now you have run away.
Su, I'd say it is you
who are bullheaded.
What you are doing now
is pushing our daughter away.
How can you do this?
Right.
I'm not talking to you.
The number you are calling
is busy now.
Please call later.
You don't understand her.
She has her own life.
You should not
deprive her of the chance to start over
in the name of protecting her.
You didn't encourage her
and you said those words
that hurt her.
I have to apologize to Xie Ziqi.
Or I would be a coward.
I'm going to do it anyway. Just do it.
I've come to apologize.
I should not have lied.
I'm not
an art director.
I'm just
a photographer.
I should not have said those harsh words to you.
You were right
that there are no humble or noble jobs.
What matters is we can
find confidence and prove ourselves in work.
I should not
deprive you of the chance to start over
in the name of protecting you.
I was self-conceited.
I'm sorry. I was wrong.
I don't blame you.
I know you don't want me to be bullied.
And that's why you don't want me
to take part-time jobs.
That's why I lied and told you I was senior management.
In a relationship,
we should trust each other
instead of lying to each other.
I was wrong.
Alright.
Let's
forget about it.
It's all because
we want the best of each other.
Well then,
let's not lie anymore.
Let's not keep any secret
from each other.
Now she has forgiven me,
I have to follow up the victory
and not let her run again.
Please marry me.
I know I'm not a perfect choice.
You have studied abroad,
run a business and worked as a boss.
You are a strong woman.
I am an orphan.
No one supported me to go to school.
I dropped out at junior middle school.
I'm only a poor boy.
But I want you to know
although I can't afford a big house or a car
or a diamond ring,
I have a heart
that loves you most in the world.
Although it is the lamest thing
in the world
to propose with this ring,
believe in me.
I will work hard to make money
and buy the largest diamond ring
for you.
If you don't mind,
please marry me.
I bought the ring
before I left you.
I was going to propose.
After we finish the case this time,
we shall go to a far-away place
and retreat to a place that no one can find us.
What do you think of it?
If you really love me,
let's get married now.
Time changed everything.
Now you are not my choice.
I won't marry you.
My brother hurts you so much.
You still can't forget him?
Are you afraid that
you will think of him
when staying with me?
So you deliberately
choose to avoid me?
Ma Da,
I know you are very good to me.
You are a good guy.
Anyone who marries you
will be very happy.
But
my company has just gone bankrupt.
I still want to
develop my career
and regain my confidence.
Will you allow me some time
to think about it?
Don't think about it anymore.
At the last Valentine's,
I allowed you three days.
Who would know
He Han came and interrupted it?
He proposed
and you said yes.
If He Han had not fooled you,
you would have long been my wife.
Why do you mention him?
OK. Not to mention him.
I will let you
think about it.
The family has finally united.
But I have given away
our dominance in the He's Group.
We are not dominant,
but we
are happy as a family.
Dad, I could have
saved it.
Zhou Qihua got in the way.
I've lost our last chance.
I have never thought
one wrong decision of mine
could have
caused the resentment between two families.
I didn't get to the bottom
of the wine incident
because I wanted to
make peace with them.
But he
just could not let go.
Dad, I'm going to
rebuild our dominance.
I won't let him have his own way.
He Han,
we'd better make friends than make enemies.
What's important now
is that
we live a happy life
as a family again.
When I came home,
there was no sign of He Mu.
Where is he?
He Mu has gone to the chateau.
Chateau?
I told him
that it's better to be a lame businessman
than a
lame entrepreneur.
He wants to
start from
the foundation of the He's Group.
He Han, I hope
both of you brothers
will become
successful entrepreneurs.
If you harvest the grapes blindly like this,
you won't get any good grapes
and you will damage the vines.
Are you going to tell me
grape harvesting
requires expertise
as complicated as
grape planting?
Of course.
Let me teach
this idiot from the kindergarten.
Show off.
What's the attitude?
Will you listen to me?
Yes, please.
To pick grapes is like
to be in a relationship.
Timing is the first thing to consider.
If you want to ask someone on a date,
you have to pick a good time.
Look, today is a very good day.
It's sunny and clear.
There is no dew
on the grapes.
It is thus possible to maintain their integrity
and proportion of sweet and sour ingredients
to the maximum extent.
If it's like what you said,
I feel it's easy.
Don't interrupt me.
I'm not done yet.
Please go on.
When you pick a grape,
you have to be very careful
like you are taking care
of your lover.
If you pick them like what you did just now,
the grape skin will be broken
and the grapes will rot.
It will impact the taste of the wine.
The final step is placing.
Do you know how to hold a lover?
You have to
place them gently
and make enough room for each of them.
Understand?
No.
It's easier said than done.
Show me.
Watch and learn.
Noble men like me
actually need to work with a bumpkin.
I am unlucky.
I actually need to work with a scumbag.
As soon as I see you, I will...
Wish us nice cooperation.
I'm telling you.
I won't work with you again.
Su Xiaoxiao, look at
the corner of the toilet.
Is there a shadow
that is moving, too?
He Mu, you trickster!
What a perfect plan.
It seems that success is around the corner.
=I regret I didn't have the courage=
=to ask you back then=
=if I could have your phone number=
=and if I could ask you out.=
=I hate myself for the lack of courage.=
=How can I forget you?=
=I still remember the heavy rain,=
=the street,=
=and the love song coming from nowhere.=
=I couldn't help=
=singing to it=
=and suddenly I said to you=
=the encounter was not wrong.=
Ma Da, all the methods you taught me
have failed.
I got directly thrown out.
Su Man went home and had a quarrel.
I don't know
how to put an end to it now.
I don't either.
You can't.
Aren't you
so much in love now?
You even live together.
Help me please.
Ah, I can't.
I have failed in the proposal.
How about you propose?
I guess you will fail too.
Then I can
have a company when I die.
We are brothers in face of trouble.
Propose?
Yes, propose.
Mr. Qiao, what kind of
wedding ring
are you looking for?
I... I just want to spend
all my savings
to buy her the best one.
I can see that you
love her very much.
We have grown up
together.
As long as she is with me,
I will feel at ease.
I can't imagine
what I will become
if one day
she is not in my life anymore.
She is the most important person
in all my life.
I can see you are really
a great couple.
But I don't know
when this wonderful
relationship
started.
I remember the first time I met her
it was in a park.
I got lost.
I couldn't find my way home
and was crying on the roadside.
She saw me
and stayed with me.
We shared a lollipop
and a swing.
It was not until the sunset
when people from the welfare home found me.
I only knew her name
was Su Man back then.
She was like an angel
caring for me and staying with me.
I remember it was dark
and I held her hand
and wouldn't let go.
At last she promised
to come and see me everyday
after school
so I let her go.
At that time
I had the idea
that
when we grew up
I had to have the names of Su Man
and Qiao Bu
on the same marriage certificate.
I wanted to look after her for the rest of my life.
Because on that very day
it's her who gave me
the feeling of family for the first time.
Have the names of Qiao Bu and Su Man
on the same marriage certificate.
This sounds
especially touching.
I think we can put your names
or family names
on the same wedding ring.
For example,
We can use the first letter of your family name
and Miss Su Man's name
as one design element
for a customized wedding ring.
What do you think?
It sounds
great.
I didn't know
about anything like
ring design
with family names.
But it's true.
This is our specialty
at BLOVES
ring customization center.
In fact, each ring
customized by BLOVES
has a different story behind it.
Each ring is unique.
Where have you been, Qiao Bu?
It's late.
I... I was...
OK. Save it.
Hurry up.
Pack your bags up.
The store is shutting down.
I've decided to elope with you.
Elope?
A grown girl can't be kept at home.
Think about Qiao Bu.
How many books has he really read?
What's the use of memorizing poems from the Song Dynasty?
Su Man is crazy too.
Under such a circumstance,
she should not run
that studio with him.
At one call from Qiao Bu,
she will go.
She doesn't
feel any
gratitude to us
for bringing her up.
Yes, I have
thought it through.
We have our life.
It's not my father who is going to marry you.
Why
should he stand in our way?
I am going to
leave this city with you
now.
Stop it.
Su Man has left because of you.
You are always
talking about diplomas.
What else do you do?
Although Qiao Bu
does not have a diploma,
he is a good man.
Look how good he is to Su Man.
We have watched him
grow up.
Whatever Su Man says,
he agrees.
Whatever Su Man does,
he never says no.
Wasn't he who brought
Su Man home last time she ran away?
I'd say
Qiao Bu cares more about Su Man
than you care about your daughter.
Su Man, calm down.
We can't just elope now.
Xiaoxiao has left for He Mu.
If you elope with me,
who is going to look after your parents?
How sad they will be!
He is so determined
to separate us.
Am I not sad?
I didn't mean that.
You father wants the best of you.
Think about it.
You are his daughter.
You father does not think I am good enough.
He does not think I deserve you.
He hopes you can find
someone better than me.
If I elope with you now,
I will leave him a worse impression.
I won't even
have the chance to
change my impression in his mind.
What should we do then?
Don't be anxious. Listen to me.
OK, honey.
You are right.
I can't outspeak you.
It's like you were the only one who cares about our daughters.
It's like I didn't care about them.
What happens now?
Su Man has run away. So has Xiaoxiao.
As long as their boyfriend
is a little good to them,
they just run.
Look.
You and I used to be the same.
We were both orphans.
But your parents took you home
from the orphanage
when you were a kid.
They have taken you as their own.
In order not to burden you with this,
they even tried to
keep it from you.
They have done a lot for you.
They have treated you even better
than their own daughter.
If I were the same
as you
and had parents who were willing to adopt me,
I would never
ever abandon my family.
Look now. There are
only the two of us in the family now.
Great. Happy now?
What are you talking about?
Is there any parent
who does not want their sons and daughters to live happily?
Isn't it good that our daughters
marry good men
and live happily?
Do you have to keep them at home?
Please don't say goodbye with a hug.
In the season when we ran barefoot, our relationship was over.
I once believed you and I would walk towards the miracle,
but tears have changed the taste.
We got acquainted, fell in love, but broke up after a kiss.
The rain that stops in my heart is as icy as bullet.
I'm trying to get those blue days back,
but the ticket stub shows a different direction.
We don't need anyone to comfort us.
Can anyone stop the time?
Who can rekindle love when it freezes?
You don't have to hide the scars between your brows.
After being in deep love, we decide to let go.
We don't need anyone to comfort us.
People who had been in love know how to be strong.
Who can get back the arrow that has been shot?
You can't hide it, but to hold it back after turning around.
After letting go, the world turns white.
We don't need anyone to comfort us.
