♫ Love has a kind of ominous feeling ♫
♫ When you are silent for a moment ♫

♫ Perhaps it is love's deceit ♫

♫ Why bother justifying the right and wrong? ♫
♫ And between me and you, ♫

The Lover's Lies
Episode 1
[Year 2015]
I know that you are a prince.
But I am not a princess.
This all feels like a dream.
But the dream is too pretty and reality is too real.
You are too far from me.
Tong Si Ji, just think of this as a dream.
Today is the day when you wake up. Let's break up.
Yi Yi!
This isn't possible. You must be doing this to make me and Si Ji break up.
That's why you made such a horrible lie.
Don't touch me!
As long as you and Si Ji break up,
everything will return to the starting point.
This house built from lies,
can there still be any happiness left?
I don't love you anymore! I don't love you anymore!
I don't believe it.
Do you believe it now? You believe it now, right?!
I'm asking you not to use Tong Si Ji to threaten me anymore.
Whenever I mention Tong Si Ji, it sure has a strong impact on you.
I don't need to continue with this act anymore.
Quick, take a picture of me and my husband.
He is my only leverage,
as well as the happiness that Tong Si Ji owes me.
You are Tong Xiao Xia, right?
Do you know how hard Si Ji looked for you?
You are obviously Xiao Xia!
How could you turn a blind eye?!
It was you who abandoned her and let her become ungrateful and fend for herself!
It's not like that.
- Enough! - It isn't! I told you,
I'm not Tong Xiao Xia!
The Tong Xiao Xia from back then has already died.
No matter what you think,
she won't know anymore.
Got it?!
Xiao Xia!
Yi Yi, don't go.
You said, you would never hurt me.
Tong Si Ji! If you want to love me, I can't do anything about it.
I'm telling you, I don't love you anymore!
From this moment on, in my life,
you, Tong Si Ji, doesn't exist in my life anymore!
Let go. Let go! Let go!
Yi Yi! Don't go! Yi Yi!
Yi Yi! Why do you want to break up with me?
Yi Yi!
Si Ji, this result and this fate,
would you be able to handle it?
Yi Yi! Yi Yi!
Yi Yi!... Yi Yi!... Yi Yi!
♫ My love has sunken to the bottom of the ocean like a rock ♫
♫ Yet I still silently hope for it to come back ♫
♫ Even if there are tears and helplessness♫
♫ Even if time passes by rapidly♫
♫ It won’t be able to wipe away love’s colours♫
♫ Never say goodbye, say goodbye ♫
♫ My heart is still waiting like it always has ♫
♫ In my memory, how much happiness and sadness still remains? ♫
♫ Never say goodbye, say goodbye ♫
♫ Love can’t be changed indifferently ♫
Si Ji, I'm sorry.
What I promised you,
I won't be able to fulfill it.
♫ Parting with yesterday’s sadness, I've learnt to let go ♫
[Year 1985]
Why are you holding this worthless thing?!
Go! Move the sofa!
Get up!
Slowly, slowly.
Quickly.
Don't blame me for doing this.
If your husband didn't give away all of the money,
I wouldn't have had to do this.
You shouldn't wait.
He and that woman has already left to live together.
You can live here for two more days, then scram!
Miss Du, congratulations. You are pregnant.
Yi Xue! I'm back.
You're back.
Don't work anymore. Take a break.
- I'm not tired. - You made so many?
What's wrong? Where are you feeling sick?
Did you eat something wrong?
I don't know either but these last few days, I keep feeling nauseous.
Yi Xue, are you pregnant?
Do you think so?
I'm going to be a father! I'm going to be a father!
Lower your voice. We haven't confirmed it yet.
Yi Xue, you must give birth to a child as pretty as you.
Let's go to the hospital.
Why don't we wait awhile first? So we don't have to waste money.
I can't wait.
Let's go. Come, let's go.
Walk slower.
Oh, right.
Carefully.
My husband is missing.
What's your husband's name?
Yi Zheng Hua.
I'm so nervous. Do you think it's just false hope?
Don't worry. We'll find out later.
It should be right.
I hope that it's a daughter.
Looks like you, pretty and cute.
Let's call her Si Ji (four seasons).
- Why? - Because "it's favorable like Spring all year round".
If it's a son then he must be like you.
In the future...
What's wrong?
The bike chain is broken.
Then what should we do?
It's no problem. Wait a minute.
Why don't we walk there?
How could we do that?
You are my wife now.
Moreover, my child is in your belly.
It's almost done, don't worry.
Be careful!
[Emergency Room]
Where are they?
We are Cheng Kang Sheng's family.
- Kang Sheng, he...my son, my son...how is he? - Don't be anxious just yet.
After we rushed to the scene,
we only found Zhang Yi Xue, who was unconscious.
We didn't find the person you said, Cheng Kang Sheng.
But, from the blood at the scene, we can conclude,
that during the accident,
he was hit by the truck and fell into the river.
We've already added more people to the search,
but the situation isn't looking too good.
Nonsense!
My son can't be in trouble. He won't be dead.
- Dad. Don't get too emotional, Dad. - Don't get emotional.
Let's sit down. It'll all work out.
Nothing will happen to Kang Sheng.
Please make sure to find him.
Don't worry, we will try our best.
Do you think the chances of Kang Sheng's survival are big?
I think that you should be mentally prepared,
because the witness said,
Cheng Kang Sheng did get hit by the truck and fell into the river.
I am thinking unless a miracle happens...
I understand.
But I still wish for you to find him.
Even if he's dead, we still need to see the body.
- Don't worry. - Okay, thank you.
It was all that Zhang Yi Xue's fault.
If it wasn't for her, our Kang Sheng wouldn't have...
This woman... this woman and our Cheng family
- should have no relations at all. - Dad.
Don't get so emotional.
Dad, nothing bad will happen.
- Don't worry. - Lian Xin,
why don't you bring the Chairman back first?
I can take care of matters here.
Dad, let's go home first.
Let's go.
- You guys go first. - Let's go, Dad.
- Carefully. - Slowly.
- Slowly. - It'll be okay, Dad.

You're awake?
Where is this place?
This is the hospital.
You were injured and was sent to the hospital.
Do you still remember?
Don't move!
Be careful, you're still hurt.
Are you not feeling well somewhere?
I'll go ask the doctor to come.
Who are you?
I... I'm Du Juan.
Du...Du...Du Juan?
Zheng Hua, don't scare me.
Zheng Hua...?
I am called Zheng Hua?
It is the side effect of having a blood clot in his brain. That's why, he has lost parts of his memories.
Then will he be able to get better?
When will he be able to remember the past?
I can't say for sure.
Some patients have remembered everything very fast,
but there are also some who never remember.
So, it's very difficult for me to tell you
when he will recover them.
So what you're saying is that he may never recover his memories?
Yes, he may not be able to remember them,
but you must not give up easily.
Only you can help him now.
Tell him of his past. If you have any questions about his condition,
you can find me anytime.
That's it.
Mrs. Yi, these are the clothes your husband had on when he was sent in.
If Zheng Hua can't remember the past,
then will he be able to forget that woman
and stay by my side?
[Year 2000] Older Sister!
Slow down!
Wait up!
Wait for me!
Quickly!
Let's see which of us can run to the big tree first!
- Xiao Dong, come! - Wait for me!
Wait for us! Wait up!
Wait for us!
If you don't wait for me, I'll tell Mum and Dad.
Look, that crybaby is crying again.
Don't worry about her. Let's go pick oranges.
Wait for me!
Wait for us!
Dad, Uncle.
- Si Ji. - Si Ji is here.
Hey, Older Brother, our little helper is here.
Si Ji, didn't I tell you not to come? Go back home.
Dad, I just finished my exam so I wanted to come and relax a bit.
How could you feel relaxed coming here?
This place is all heavy-duty work.
How can you relax here?
Dad, look. I'm drawing.
One big circle, two small circles.
Color in the middle, with one big curved line.
A happy face.
You taught me this when I was younger.
Look at this kid.
Si Ji, can you do it?
Of course I can.
- Be careful. - Don't worry.
I am Master Tong's daughter.
Anyway, if I don't help you out more,
then how can you come home earlier to eat?
Hurry and work.
Son, what happened here?
Yi Yi's Mum. You're here.
Teacher, what happened?
Teacher, your face. Who hit you?
Your son hit him.
Husband.
Yi Yi's mom, this semester,
the number of times Yi Yi has gotten into fights
is as many as the times he received awards.
But no matter how great his grades are,
or how many awards he has won, he can't cause so many problems.
This time, he even dared to hit me, his teacher.
From what I see, he doesn't want his moral education grade.
Teacher, sorry. I'm really sorry.
I will teach him seriously when I get back home.
Son! Son!
What's wrong with you?
Who hit you like this?
How ill-mannered!
Son, look at how swollen your face is.
Who is this?
He hit too hard.
It's you again?
Why are you always bothering my son?
What kind of parent are you?
Go and teach your son properly.
Look at him! He's just like a gangster!
Who is a gangster?
- Your son is the gangster. - Du Juan!
I sincerely apologize.
I am Yi Yi's father. How about this,
bring your son to the hospital for a check up first.
We will cover all of the medical bills.
Here is my business card.
Yi Yi's Father, I can tell you are one who speaks logically.
This isn't the first time your son hit my son.
You really have to go and teach your son more properly when you go back.
I will. It's all
because of my bad teachings.
Yi Yi, go and apologize to your classmate and Teacher quickly.
Yi Yi, quickly. Quickly apologize.
Teacher, sorry.
- Hey, sorry. - Look at your attitude!
Teacher, we're really sorry.
As for this, I'll let the school handle this as they want.
Don't hold back.
Mr. Yi, my apologies,
- for having you personally come this time. - No,
I'm the one who is apologetic.
Teacher, sorry. Yi Yi will be in your care, please take care of him.
Sorry.
Husband! Wait for me.
Hey, did you see? Being handsome is not my fault.
It's because my family's genetics are good.
You brat, you still haven't had enough?
How long have you had the fever symptom for?
About two to three weeks.
Recently, the weather has been changing dramatically. My cold keeps coming and going.
What's with these bruises?
Oh, I accidentally bumped into some things a few days ago.
It's not all the time.
But while working, some bumping can't be avoided.
Doctor, have I contracted the flu,
is that why I can't get any better?
Can you prescribe me more medicine to lower my fever?
I still need to work.
Enduring a fever and body pains isn't a solution.
I will prescribe you some medicine,
but you have been having fevers on and off for too long,
so it's better to have a full body examination.
I think, you should find some time next month
to do a detailed examination.
- That... - Your symptoms appear to be those of a cold,
but you can't just ignore it.
I also know that your work is really tough,
but if you don't have a healthy body, how can you earn money, right?
- I'm sorry. - Zheng Hua!
Why did you go the wrong way?
I thought I saw someone familiar, maybe someone I knew from before.
- You must have mistaken them for someone else. - Probably.
Zheng Hua, we still have things to do. Let's go quickly.
Okay.
Here.
Mum, what did the doctor say when you went to the hospital today?
Nothing much. It's just a cold.
Then, you stay home and get some rest. Don't go to work.
How can she not work?
If she doesn't work, how will we raise this huge family?
Just depending on your dad and uncle's income, is that enough for household expenses?
We are already living a tough enough life now.
Look at what we eat every day. It's all vegetables.
It's the time for Xiao Dong to grow but she can't even eat any meat.
Look, her skin is just wrapping around her bones.
Aunt, the fattest person in our house is Xiao Dong.
Did I ask you?
When adults are speaking, children shouldn't interrupt.
Eating can't even shut your mouth.
Really!
Mum, we need to pay for school tomorrow.
Money, money, money... is money all you can talk about?
What did I do wrong in my past life to live so hard now?
I can't even feed my own daughter well.
I still... I still have to raise you, a stepchild!
Lan Lan, don't say those words to the kids.
Mum! What's a stepchild?
It's saying, that Xiao Chun isn't Aunt's real son.
- It's... - Xiao Xia!
Eat your food.
Xiao Chun, I will give you the money you need for tomorrow.
So don't worry, okay? Quickly eat now.
- We're back! - We're back!
- You're back. - Dad! Dad!
- Son, come. - Give that to me, I'll take it.
Dad, you're back!
- Dad. - Eat, eat.
You're back.
Dad, hurry and eat.
The dishes aren't bad.
Older Brother, to be able to eat hot dishes the moment we get home,
we're so lucky.
Is just eating happiness?
So uneducated.
I say, Xiao Lan, why are you like this again?
Here, eat.
Son, did you make your Mum angry?
I didn't.
Good child.
It's you who made me unhappy.
Chen Lan, what's with you now?
I'm full from anger. I won't eat anymore.
Lan Lan!
I think you're just restless from overeating!
Seriously, she's crazy.
Enough, enough.
Hurry and eat. The food is turning cold.
Let's eat. Let's eat.
Thank you, Sister in-law.
Here.
Dad will tell you all a story as an appetizer, how about that?
The kids are almost done eating already.
What appetizer?
Then, let's just say it's fruit after the meal.
Okay, okay, okay.
Let's clap, clap!
One day, Xiao Dong did something wrong.
Mum told him to kneel in front of Goddess Guanyin to repent. (Guanyin - Buddhist Goddess of Mercy)
Mom told Xiao Dong that only if Goddess Guanyin forgave him,
then he could eat.
Who would have thought that not even after five minutes,
Xiao Dong sat down in front of the dinner table.
Mum thought it was really weird
and asked Xiao Dong, hadn't she said that after five minutes,
he could only eat after Goddess Guanyin had forgiven him?
Xiao Dong said, he knelt in front of Goddess Guanyin and said,
"Goddess Guanyin, I was wrong.
I want to eat."
Afterward, Goddess Guanyin used her right hand to say OK.
- Okay. - Okay. Okay.
- Okay! - Let's eat!
- Okay! - Okay, let's eat.
Enough, enough. Let's eat now. Hey, listen.
Okay!
Brother, how skilful you are.
Look at how happy the kids are now.
You Wei!
You didn't take your lunch.
We have more work to do today.
So we might not come home to eat.
I got it.
Then, be careful on the road.
Oh right,
that... Mrs. Tu from the market asked me to pay back the debt.
It's alright. Yi Xue, I will think of a solution for the money.
Xiao Xia! Xiao Xia.
Xiao Xia, didn't I agree to sew some pearls on your dress?
That way, it will be like a new dress.
I don't want it! I want to buy a new dress!
Dad, I want to go to a classmate's birthday party.
Didn't you agree to buy me a new dress?
Xiao Xia, don't be like that.
Mum is being unfair!
Mum only buys new clothes for Older Sister.
Xiao Xia, don't bother Dad.
I will sew pearls on your dress, so don't bother them, okay?
I don't want it! I want a new dress!
I want a new dress!
Xiao Xia, you want a new dress, is that so?
You can't.
Xiao Xia, if you don't listen then mum is going to get angry.
Dad and Mum only care about Older Sister. I don't like you guys anymore!
- Xiao Xia! - Xiao Xia!
Looks like she's grown up.
She knows how to make herself look pretty.
Don't spoil her all the time.
You're making her spoiled by pampering her too much.
It's alright, as long as the children are happy.
Si Ji, what do you want?
Dad, you don't need to buy anything for me. Really, I don't need anything.
Si Ji, last time I saw that your shoes were breaking.
How about dad buying you a new pair?
Si Ji is our family's eldest daughter so she works the hardest at home.
Dad, I really don't need anything.
Money, money, money!
That's all you ask for all day!
Chen Lan, can you not act like such a vixen?!
I'm acting like a vixen?!
If you were able to make some money, would I need to act like a vixen?!
Tong You De, have you gotten bolder? You're even banging doors close now!
Tell me from your conscience, in the many years that I have been married to you,
have you even bought one thing for my Dad or given my Mum one bit of money out of respect?!
- You... are you a man? - Enough, don't say any more.
You—!
Fine, Chen Lan.
I will go and sell my organs now.
So that you can have some face at home!
What are you saying?!
- Enough. - Fine, if you have the ability,
if you can't bring money back once you go out now, don't dare to think of coming back!
Fine!
If I can't bring any money back,
then I will die outside.
I will die outside! Happy now?!
That's enough. Say less.
Don't say any more.
Just let her get her way a little.
I let her get her way too much.
So that she has climbed over me now!
Then... just let her be.
I have really gone blind!
Why would I have married a useless man like you?
My Dad is not a useless man
- Your dad is! - Enough.
Don't make him look bad in front of the child.
I just want to make him look bad!
I just want the child to see how useless his dad is!
I am nearly unable to keep my own daughter alive.
I still have to raise the stepchild from him and his ex-wife!
- I can't live these kind of days anymore! - Lan Lan!
- I don't want to be live anymore. Get away! - Chen Lan!
Who told you to keep clinging on to me?
Did I force you to marry me with a knife?!
- Enough! - You don't want to live?
I'm the one who really doesn't want to live!
- Alright! Let's go. - What kind of person is that?!
Xiao Chun, let's go play ball with younger brothers and sister, alright?
That's right. Si Ji, go and take them to play.
Let's go.
[Bing Jie] [Branded shoes for women]
Please come in, mister. You can see it better inside.
- How much does this pair of leather shoes cost? - 50 Yuan.
- How about this dress? - 35 Yuan.
Are you buying it for your daughter?
If you buy both, I'll charge you 80 Yuan.
Wrap up that pair of shoes first.
I will come and buy the dress next time.
Okay. Then I'll wrap it up for you.
Sorry, Xiao Xia. Next time.
Dad promises to buy you the dress next time.
Thirteen, fourteen, fifteen.
In all that's fifteen and along with last time's, it is 30 Yuan.
Here is 30 Yuan.
- Thank you, Shopkeeper. - You're welcome.
Si Ji, you're really a good daughter. You go to school and also make these crafts to cover home expenses.
How are you going to spend all this money?
After I save up enough, I'll buy Xiao Xia a dress.

- ♪ Us, the civilians, are so happy ♪ - Are you that happy?
I'm happy. I'm happy!
Brother, of course I'm happy.
My debt is almost paid off now.
I am experiencing this debt-free feeling beforehand.
I've already calculated it. After I get paid next month,
I can pay off this debt entirely.
By then, our family's life will get better and better.
I will have to see what Chen Lan has to say then.
And Brother, I've also thought about it,
after we pay the house rent next month, let's use the remaining money
to gather more people to set up a group of workmen.
Then, both of us can work harder and earn more money.
We must let our children live better lives.
I'm also thinking that.
Say, when will we be able to get somewhere with just our two pairs of hands, right?
- That's right. - Time to eat!
It's time to eat.
Let's go, Brother. Let's go eat.
You De, come in and unbuckle it.
- It's alright. - It's dangerous.
You De! Hold on!
Brother! Save me!
You De, hold on!
Don't let go!
Don't ever let go! Hold tight!
Don't let go!
You stupid brat.
You won't be happy without making any problems, is that it?!
It's okay. It's okay.
Quickly!
- Mum, your bleeding! - Auntie, you're bleeding.
Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law!
This is bad! You De and You Wei have gotten into an accident at the worksite!
Tong You De's family.
We're here! We're here!
Come with me.
The second bed. He had already passed away when he arrived.
- You De! - Dad!
- Nurse, how is Tong You Wei? - Wait outside for a while.
You De!
Dad!
How could you die? What am I going to do?
- Dad, wake up! - You De!
Dad! Dad!
- Tong You Wei's family? - We are.
He won't be able to hold on for much longer. Go and talk to him quickly.
Mom!
You Wei.
- You Wei. - Dad!
You Wei!
Dad!
- Yi Xue... - Dad!
I'm sorry.
Don't leave me. Don't leave me and the children behind.
Dad, I beg you not to die.
Si Ji.
Take care
of your mum for me.
Dad, don't die.
Take care of your brother...
and sister...
- Dad don't die... I'm begging you. - Xiao Qiu.
- Dad. - Xiao Qiu.
You are a man.
- Don't cry. - Dad.
Dad!
I'm sorry.
Xiao Xia.
Dad...
...can't buy you a new dress anymore.
Dad...
Dad!
- Dad! - You Wei!
- You Wei! - Doctor, I'm begging you, please save my Dad! I'm begging you!
You Wei!
- You Wei! - Dad!
My Father can't die!
- Dad! - You Wei!
Don't leave me!
- Dad! - Dad!
You Wei!
- Dad! - What should I do...?
You Wei, You De, you can both leave in peace.
We will definitely raise the children well.
You De, you conscienceless man.
What do you expect me and Xiao Dong to do by ourselves?
What exactly did I do wrong to be punished like this?
How will our family live now?
Mum!
Xiao Dong!
What are we going to do?
Mum, don't be sad. I will take care of you in place of Dad.
Si Ji.
This pair of shoes
is what your dad bought for you before he went to the worksite.
You have to take good care of them. You must never forget how good Dad treated you.
Dad, didn't you promise to buy me a new dress?
Mom, I want Dad to come back. I want Dad!
I want Dad!
Aunt, quickly come and save us! Aunt!
- Aunt! Come and save us! - Coming, coming.
Aunt!
- What is it? What is it? - Aunt!
- Xiao Chun, hurry and return Xiao Dong to me! - I don't want to!
What is going on now?
Aunt, Mum wants to take Xiao Dong away.
- Lan Lan, You De's has barely been gone for long. - That's right!
I do want to take Xiao Dong away.
I can't stay in this house a day longer!
Xiao Dong, come here quickly.
I don't want to, I don't want to. I want to be with Brother and Sister.
Aunt, where are you going to take Xiao Dong?
Going anywhere is better than staying here and waiting for death.
Chen Lan!
How can you be so selfish? Xiao Chun is also You De's child.
How can you leave him behind?
Xiao Chen isn't even my son!
I can't care about anything much anymore.
I lived with You De for so many years, but I have never lived a single good day.
But it's good for him after he died just like that,
he has thrown these two kids to me.
Xiao Dong, come with Mum. If we don't go, we're going to be living in the streets.
I don't want to! I want to be with Older Brother! I don't want to be apart from Older Brother.
Listen to Mum.
If you don't leave, then I'll leave.
If you want to leave then leave by yourself. I'll raise Xiao Dong and Xiao Chun!
Lan Lan, as long as the family is together,
then we will be able to live through tough times.
Sister in-law, stop being so optimistic!
What will we use to pass through this?
I am tired of living this kind of life.
Xiao Dong!
I am asking you one last time, are you coming with me or not?
Okay.
Okay then.
- Aunt! - Mum!
Mum!
Mum...!
Mum... Mum...
Mum...!
Xiao Dong, Xiao Chun.
Since you both are staying,
then you must listen to your Aunt.
I am only temporarily leaving to find a job.
When I settle down, I will come back and pick you both up.
Wait for Mum to make money and pick you guys up.
Be good.
Sister in-law, sorry.
Mum!
Xiao Dong, don't cry anymore.
Aunt is here, as well as Sister Si Ji.
- We will all get better together. - Mom...
Don't cry anymore, okay?
Sister Si Ji will be with you from now on, okay? Don't cry.
Don't cry anymore, Xiao Dong, you're a good girl, right?
Xiao Dong, don't be scared.
Xiao Dong, be good.

♫ Holding hands silently, heaven or earth ♫
♫ There are too many words I can't say aloud ♫
♫ The courage of love holds you and I've gentleness tightly ♫
♫ Keep it intact ♫
