Don't be too mean to her!
Have I led my team for so many years for nothing?
Go quickly.
Don't lie to me!
What is the worth in me lying to a little brat?
So mean.
I don't even know what Sister Tong Nian likes about you.
If it were me, I wouldn't want you even for free.
You talk big.
Tell me.
What do you want to know?
How did my mom and dad meet?
Dreams.
Your mom used to play professionally, too.
Before I came back to China, the two already knew each other.
Even earlier than when Ai Qing and my dad met?
Your dad, mom, and me; the three of us met the earliest.
Before I officially came back to China, I flew back twice.
At the time, the two still hadn't broken up yet.
Then... why did they break up?
There are so many reasons for a boyfriend and girlfriend breaking up, how would I know?
Aren't you clear on everything?
Maybe they didn't get along well with each other.
Just contradictions between any ordinary boyfriend and girlfriend, it's nothing complicated.
- Why aren't you asking anymore? - Let me think.
My dad... did he not want me?
My dad did not want me, but my mom insisted on having me?
Tell me!
You have to let me think, too!
[Thirteen years ago]
- Cover the left and right side. - Okay.
Reverse analysis.
Today, everyone's condition wasn't bad!
- Team Captain, the last tactic was really too beautiful! - It was especially brilliant! Yeah!
Solo! Wait!
Let's go, let's go.
Su Cheng!
Sorry, we won against you today.
You're wrong, it's not that I'm not convinced of your win.
It's the opposite, I am utterly convinced.
But why did you keep yielding to me?
I...
Just now, there were a few times we were directly against each other.
The third round you attacked my node. The sixth round you infiltrated. The tenth round you found my vulnerabilities.
You had a few chances to win for sure.
Why did you let me go?
You memorize the competition process so thoroughly.
Yes. I just felt that... I won many games against you guys already.
Then, the last few games I felt we shouldn't be too serious.
You know? Compared to losing to you, that makes me feel more embarrassed.
Don't cry! It's just one competition!
The next one, you guys can definitely win!
I don't want to have such a weak performance in front of you!
I don't want to make you disappointed in me! I am not the same as other people!
Do they like you as much as I do?
[Ten years ago]
Su Cheng?
We haven't seen each other in two years, right?
Is Solo here?
He isn't here. Everyone isn't here.
Can I come in and wait for him?
Sit wherever you want.
You probably know that he has a girlfriend now, right?
I know.
Then you should also know who his girlfriend is, right?
His girlfriend right now is Ai Qing.
Appledog.
Your team's first female main offense.
Mommy! Mommy!
Okay, okay.
Tell me why. I have the right to know, do you understand?
You had my baby.
At the very least you should have told me, right?
Solo... I have no one else to turn to.
I can't afford to raise her anymore.
Raise?
If you can't afford to raise her, then why did you have her?
Can you tell me why?
She is sick.
She needs treatment.
I can't even support myself...
I really am not doing this just to rely on you.
I just don't want her to stay with me and not have a good life.
Solo, she is your daughter.
Can you keep her?
Right now, your team has such good results.
Raising a little girl isn't a problem, right?
I am begging you, okay?
She really is your daughter... I-I have a birth certificate.
Whatever examination you want to do, I can go with you to do it!
I am begging you, please keep her.
I... I don't have the money to go bring her to see a doctor.
I can't get her treated.
I am begging you.
I am not doubting her identity.
Do you understand me?
I just want to know...
You had her.
Why didn't you tell me from the beginning?
This child wasn't in my plans.
And even more so, not in your plans.
Besides, at that time we had already broken up.
Do you know?
When I found out I was pregnant, I was already three months in.
What do you think I could have done?
Your results were getting better and better.
I didn't want me and our child to become your stumbling block or burden in the future.
Ai Qing, go out first.
I will explain it to you tonight.
Mommy is here, mommy is here. She'll be out very soon.
What are you explaining to me tonight?
Isn't everyone here right now?
Explain it to me right now.
Who is the kid... outside?
Ai Qing, I did not do anything that I am sorry for.
Su Cheng and I broke up two years ago.
At that time, I didn’t know you yet.
I’m asking you who that kid is!
Come here!
- Tell me. Who is this kid? - Mommy, Mommy.
Ai Qing, we haven’t—
Stop talking nonsense!
What if it’s fake? You can’t believe whatever she says.
Ai Qing, you need to give Solo a bit more time. Okay? What if it’s really not real?
Have you tested the DNA?
No need.
Mommy, Mommy.
She is my daughter.
She is mine; Solo’s daughter.
- Mommy! - Move!
- Ai Qing! - Ai Qing! - Mommy!
Mommy!
My dad wanted me so he gave up his team?
Yes.
So you hate my dad?
Yes.
I will go tell Ai Qing that the kid is mine.
Say you took the blame for me and I'll raise the kid for you.
Then you go look for Ai Qing. You cannot let her have an emotional breakdown.
We still have to compete at the national finals.
How are you going to raise her?
Also, what do you think I am?
What do I think you are?
What do you think I see you as?
Our hardships for all these years, was it for nothing?
Just one more step.
We can win the national championship.
I know.
Solo, you are not my only bro.
I still have Ai Qing, Little Mi, Ou Qiang, and all the substitute players, too!
Team Solo is more than just you!
I didn't expect this either.
Why would this sort of thing happen to me?
Also,
the child is innocent.
This is not the time for you to feel guilty!
If you and Ai Qing are over, it is over for all of us!
So many years of hardships,
we've suffered so much.
We can't just let it end like this!
♫ Nothing to hide, not be afraid ♫
Wang Hao!
Are you willing to give up?
This team that we created with our own hands.
At the time for money, how many bosses did you look for and how many times did they close the door on you? Do you remember?
You were the one who found every single supporter, one by one.
It is because of you that everyone came into this circle!
Let me think.
What is there to think about? Do as I say!
♫ Trying to find the one that is me ♫
Let me think!
♫ Nothing to hide, do not be afraid ♫
♫ So many times I wish I could leave ♫
My dad. He is a good dad.
But he isn't a good team captain.
But he has been trying to make up for it all this time!
Uncle Mi Shaofei and Ou Qiang, my dad fought hard to get both of them back.
Do you understand what the "golden age" is?
A professional player; the few years when he or she is in the best condition. All wasted.
It must be an inner struggle for you.
♫ You’re walking away, begging to me ♫
Tong Nian, where are Han Shangyan and Little Ai?
Over there.
Okay.
When I think about it from your point of view, my dad... really did let his bros down.
But why don't you put yourself in my shoes and think about it?
How pitiful I was! That time I was still so young.
And I have a disability, too!
My dad couldn't have thrown me aside and not take care of me.
Luckily...
Luckily, my dad didn't throw me aside to be your daughter.
If you were my dad, in one day, I would have fought you ten times.
Do you think that I think highly of you?
What a joke!

Little Ai.
Her luggage is still in Tong Nian's room. After you are done talking, we can go get it.
Can I talk to you?
The first time that your attention is not on me.
I... I am paying attention to them!
Say, how do you think their chat will go?
What will result from it?
What result do you want?
Did Uncle Han give you this new hearing aid?
What does he understand? He wanted to buy one for me.
But he doesn't understand it. He thinks it is like a headset, that you can just pay and get.
This is the one I secretly hid. A spare one.
You're like your dad. Very attentive and a careful thinker.
You're mad that he didn't pay attention to you. I've been mad about that before, too.
At the time, did you love my dad?
Did you love him?
He was my first love.
Then... what about my dad?
Were you his first love, too?
I never asked him that. I probably was.
You...
Ask me! Whatever you want to ask, you can ask me today.
I only took care of you for a very short time, and I didn't have any other kids.
I actually don't have much experience being a mother.
Why don't we treat each other as friends, okay?
Why did you give birth to me?
You don't love my dad, you don't love me. Why did you give birth to me?
I do love you guys.
Little Ai, I used to love him very much,
and that is why I gave birth to you. It's a way to remember.
So you treat me like a memento?
I'm sorry.
Back then, I thought of everything too simply.
I thought that I could raise you well by myself.
But later you didn't expect that I was going to be so troublesome and not a healthy child so you didn't want to raise me anymore. Right?
No.
At the time, my team was competing very poorly.
But I wanted to give you a good life.
I thought that you would be happier being with him than with me.
But that way you destroyed him and his career at the time!
Yes. In this matter, I was very selfish.
Or you could say, I never expected that I would bring harm to everyone.
And even more so, I didn't expect that Team Solo would disband.
And then you went and found someone else?
My husband right now was my former team's captain.
I knew him before I even knew your father.
He always had me in his heart.
And it was him that helped me.
He accompanied me when I was alone.
Why did you guys break up back then?
At the time, your dad's team had just started.
Every day, he was just thinking about how to get better results with his team.
I really admired him.
But I was also mad at him.
I didn't even get to ask him for a small amount of time to hold my hand and walk with me.
So we were always arguing. Always arguing.
It's all my fault.
At the time, I was too young.
Even though his work was really important,
I needed someone to be there for me, too.
- Are you cold? - I'm not cold!
Look!
Why do you look so good right now?
To be honest, I know that although Little Ai is saying things like this,
her feelings towards Solo are very deep.
At the same time, I am sure Solo feels the same.
His feelings towards her must also be very deep, right?
Go ask her. How would I know?
Do you not know how to speak nicely?
You're clearly hungry, but still helping Solo persuade his daughter.
But your face says, "Whatever. It's none of my business."
Actually, you'd already forgiven Solo long ago, haven't you?
Only you have the most to say.
Is this how you reward one with merit?
Then, how do you want to be rewarded?
I'll drop you guys off here.
Do you know why he will only bring us up until here and not any further?
This is Team Solo's old dormitory
and its training base.
Take advantage of his mood swings and dejection,
and decisively capture his fragile little heart!
I'll send her off. You guys don't need to go up.
I didn't intend to go up anyway.
Slowly!
My dad already has a daughter this old, and you still have nobody that wants you. Have you no shame?
- Bye-bye! - Bye-bye!
Bye-bye!

I won't be going in, okay?
Thank you for respecting me.
Thank you for teaching me a lesson.
Then, we have a deal. In the future, if I want to go out, I will directly tell you.
Don't just bypass me and talk to Dad.
Okay.
My dad... he's very pitiful.
I know.
Go in quickly.
Okay. Go in!
Little Ai!
Dad.
It is raining so hard outside, why didn't you use an umbrella?
Your hair is wet! Sit down.
I haven't paid attention to you for a month. Your hair has already grown this long.
How come you're eating nonnutritious boxed meals again?
They already said in the news, there is a lot of oil and it's not healthy.
From now on, you should eat less of these boxed meals.
I didn't want to cook for just myself.
Then, I'll eat together with you. Go cook for me!
Treat it as an apology.
Okay! I'll dry your hair and then I'll go cook for you.
Tell me. What do you want to eat later?
Tomato and egg stir-fry!
I can do that!
Sweet and sour spare ribs!
Okay.
And... braised pork!
You don't know how to make it?
I can! Whatever you want to eat, I will make it for you.
Dad, you are drying it so slow!
You should dry it like this!
It's faster this way!
I won't get in the car. I want to walk by myself for a while.
It is raining so hard outside, are you sure you're okay by yourself?
We aren't going in the same direction. It's okay.
Then, you be careful!
Little Ai sent me a WeChat message.
She said Solo caught a cold.
It is because Little Ai wasn't there that Solo got sick.
Before, it was all factory buildings over here.
I didn't expect that it would have become an industrial park.
Back then, the roads were terrible. Once it rained, the whole road would be covered with mud.
At the time, Solo would piggyback Ai Qing home every time, so that her shoes wouldn't get dirty.
It was also hard for Ai Qing to find a person like that. She suffered a lot in her earlier years.
I really don't know what she saw in Solo.
How did they meet?
Ai Qing was at an internet cafe and fell in love with Solo at first sight.
Just like me.
How is it the same?
At the time, Solo and Su Cheng had broken up for only about half a year.
He was still hurt from love. I wasn't!
[Fluidixine] (penicillin antibiotic)
Dad, stop what you're doing and come here first.
Dad, drink up the cold medicine first.
You know how to take care of me now.
Little Ai,
I was wrong.
You're not allowed to say that you're wrong.
Even if the whole world is wrong,
my dad isn't wrong.
It's all my fault.
If you didn't have me, you would've won the world championship long ago.
Dad, in my heart, you are China's greatest team captain.
I know.
Thank you.
I'll go and cook for you.
Time is really cruel.
If everyone knew the outcome would be like this. Then, they probably would have made different choices back then.
Oh yeah, who brought you back?
Uncle Han.
Thank you for bringing Little Ai home.
Why don't you come in and sit for a while?
Su Cheng is about to go back to Norway.
There are still a ton of matters at the club. Forget it.
Then, when you have the chance. It's raining a lot, so be careful on the road.
Hi.
Thank you.
Sorry to call you out so suddenly.
No problem.
Your water. Please take a look at the menu.
- I'll have a juice. - Okay.
- An Americano, thank you. - All right.
So, is there a reason why you called me today?
Actually, I've always owed you an apology.
Are you talking about the past?
I think you've misunderstood.
Because that matter in my mind has already passed long ago.
Do you think I'm like Han Shangyan who loves to keep grudges?
At the time, I was really helpless.
As if I fell into the water and struggled to look for something to hold onto.
So naturally, I thought of Little Ai's father first.
To be honest, I actually don't blame you for bringing Little Ai there at all.
Instead, I blame Solo.
I blame him for taking in Little Ai without talking with me.
At that time, it caused me to be unable to continue with the team after that.
Including him secretly deciding to leave the team and causing the entire team to disband.
I was also the last person to find out.
So,
every team member in Team Solo was more important than his girlfriend.
So when Solo agreed to take in Little Ai, I was very relieved.
It meant he would do his best to take care of her.
Only, it was hard on you.
Actually, it was harder on Solo.
He was a man who didn't know how to take care of a child.
Every day, he would look at books and learn a little at a time.
Dad is going to let you try the tomato and egg stir-fry I especially made for you!
Do you want to drink some water before you eat?
- Yes. - Yes? Okay.
Coming! Have some water.
Solo.
It's already been three years.
Are you still planning to come out of retirement?
Dad will feed you.
Take care of yourself.
Stay for a bit longer.
Once I'm done feeding her, we can talk.
I'm going.
So I quickly got over my anger at him.
But this is all in the past. Since it's past, let it stay in the past.
I think the reason you called me out today wasn't to talk about the past, right?
- Your coffee. - Thank you.
Your juice. Enjoy.
This is where I'm conflicted.
I want to ask you. If I bring Little Ai to Norway for ear treatment
and also for her education,
do you think Solo will be very sad?
Although he openly expresses his consent,
I'm still really worried.
I understand now.
My advice is to ask for Little Ai's opinion yourself.
Besides, she is twelve years old already.
If you want to know from my perspective,
who she feels more emotionally tied to, you can think about it.
You took care of her for two years.
Solo took care of her for ten whole years and grew up with her during her childhood.
If it were you, who do you think you'd be closer to?
I'll go in to get something and then take you home.
What is it?
Do you want to go in?
I... won't go in.
If I go in, Grandpa will get the wrong idea again.
What wrong idea?
You know yet you are still asking me.
We can't keep pretending, especially since he's your grandpa.
If you don't want to lie, then don't.
You know, just now when I saw you two coming back alone, I was so happy.
Grandpa, I'm happy to see you, too.
- Really? - Really.
Drink some juice.
Hey, hey, hey!
Don't let her drink juice here. Take her upstairs.
Right, right! Take some movies and watch them upstairs.
Can't we watch them here?
I'm here watching my shows. You watch your shows up there.
Okay? Go up.
Okay.
Then, Grandpa, we'll go up.
Oh right, right!
The cat has already been taken to the club. Why do we still have so much cat food lying around?
- Hurry and take it over to the club! - Okay.
So the cat's still here.
Grandpa, I'm going up to take a look around!
Watch a few movies! Don't be in a hurry to come down!
So you didn't give the cat away.
Why did all the cat food fall? Let me clean it up for you.
Don't worry about it, I can do it.
Do you have a cleaning towel or something?
In the bathroom.
So this is what a man's bathroom looks like.
Let's do it together.
At his house doing chores, I'm so happy.
You didn't tell me earlier.
Tell you what?
You didn't give the cat away. Why did you lie to me?
How's the cat I gave you? Is it behaving?
It almost bit me.
If it bites me, I have to get a shot. Isn't that a bother to me?
Sorry. How about... you give it to me, I'll take care of it.
I gave it away.
Who'd you give it to?
My housemaid.
I wasn't in a good mood that day so I casually said it.
Did I offend you?
Or did you encounter something else that day?
This root must be cut off from your side, understood?
Okay.
Can I really trust you?
Am I this untrustworthy in your eyes?
I'll say this again. I promise you.
There are things you don't need to ask in such detail.
I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to know.
Then, what about you going overseas for a matchmaking meeting?
It's also fake. I returned to Norway for a debriefing meeting at headquarters. Also, to visit my step-mom.
Are you done asking questions?
