[Never Stand Still]
[Episode 5]
Play.
Ping An!
We together.
What's wrong?
I don't know.
We together.
Wang Ping An.
We can't go back.
I'm sorry. I won't abandon you again.
Don't make a fool of yourself here!
Ping An.
Wang Ping An, misconduct.
Disqualified.
I'm happy you found this photo.
I didn't think your mom had kept it.
So fast.
You and Ping An...
You've almost become adults all of a sudden.
All in our family
are really good at sports.
Auntie, how can you accept it?
Your mom and I were neighbors since we were children.
We've known each other our entire life.
After she retired from the national team, she didn't contact me again.
I didn't know why.
After a few more years
Wang Lei left.
I felt...
like I was cut off from the rest of the world.
I didn't have anyone to talk to.
At that time, Ping An was only five years old.
He asked me every day...
"When will Dad be home?"
I had never thought
a perfectly healthy person would go out
and never come back.
People say
life is unpredictable.
Everybody knows this saying.
But you'll only come to understand its meaning
after you experience it.
Wang Lei.
That day, I was too drunk.
It was an accident.
I will leave the national team.
I've decided to keep this child.
I will assume sole responsibility.
At that time, I felt like my heart...
was hollowed out.
It was like a black hole.
Many years passed, and the black hole always felt like a rock crushing me.
Crushing me. We're running late.
I couldn't hold it, nor could I put it down.
Crushing me and I couldn't breathe.
Ping An.
Hurry up.
We're running late.
Idiot.
Idiot?
Who's an idiot?
Idiot.
Are you saying I'm an idiot?
Idiot.
Let's go.
Do you hear me? Let's go!
We're running late!
Ping An couldn't attend school
because the parents all said
Ping An disrupted the lessons.
They wanted us to transfer schools.
And then at the other school
the teachers said he brought down the average score.
Idiot.
Ping An.
President Wang.
You're the only one who does whatever she wants.
You're not here when needed.
What's the point of hiring you? You're fired.
In only three years, he went through four different schools.
There was no place to stay.
One day, I took Ping An and got on a bus.
A random bus.
I didn't know where to go...
For a brief moment, I actually wanted...
I wanted to leave him in the bus. I didn't want him anymore.
Before we knew it...
we arrived at the most unlikely place to go.
Hello, Auntie.
Ping An, it's your turn.
Look at me.
Jump.
Use your hands.
Look at me.
Swing. Jump.
Put your hands here.
Swing. Jump.
Put your hands here.
One, two, three.
Jump!
Ping An, you need to jump.
After I swing, you need to jump.
Okay? Jump.
Jump.
Let's jump a little later, okay?
We together.
Here we go.
Swing. Jump.
Jump.
Ping An, you're awesome!
But now
I really don't think like that.
We are a family now.
All I have on my mind now
is how to take care of this family, take care of you.
Auntie.
You really don't hate me?
Ping An is really lucky to have met you.
If not for you, he wouldn't have been able to get out of it.
Thank you.
Thank you for being born.
Thank you for shaving his face every day.
For helping him dress, tying his shoelaces.
Thank you.
We can't change the past.
But we can make decisions for our future.
No matter what you wish to do
I will support you.
Don't be so tense.
Let him calm down.
Back then, I asked you...
"Shall we live together?"
I didn't want you to make it up to me.
I just wanted us to take care of each other.
Do you still feel guilty?
I've always felt guilty to you.
Now you owe me nothing.
If you think that way, keep it to yourself.
I don't want Zi Hao to think the same way.
Otherwise I'll feel very bad.
Because your child is also my child.
You're so good to Ping An that he thinks his own mom doesn't love him.
I believe Zi Hao is very mature.
He won't think like that.
He's indeed very mature.
This is why he's particularly sensitive.
He's working hard at pretending to be mature in front of his mom.
I know...
I know that showing less love to Ping An
is very hard.
I hope you'll try to care more about Zi Hao.
Ping An!
Stop playing.
Take a break.
Ping An!
This was a nice shot.
It didn't clear the net.
Nice shot.
Chinese team.
He even returned that smash.
He reacts so fast.
That smash.
This shot is hard to return.
You're here?
Hurry.
Doubles final.
The previous game ended 21-10.
Now it's 14-11. Very tight.
-They have great teamwork. -Right.
Here, have some.
Thanks.
Look at this shot.
The Badminton Association just gave us the news.
Ping An got banned for one year.
One year?
If Ping An hears this...
He won't be able to take it.
What to do?
Call Zi Hao.
What's the use of calling Zi Hao?
-Don't call him. It's no use. -What else can we do?
Look at this shot.
[Xiao Na]
Ping An.
Ping An, take a break.
No one's answering.
Don't call.
We together.
What are your plans now?
Ping An can't enter competitions for one year. You neither.
Now is your chance to switch to singles.
-Right? -Right.
-You should think about it. -Right.
-Think about it. -Let's go together tomorrow.
The training camp will be awesome. Take this opportunity.
-Let's leave together tomorrow. -Let's go together.
Okay, I'll think about it.
It's going to be fine. You're strong.
-Be confident. -Don't think too much.
Better switch earlier.
Ping An.

Your dad's identity...
I never wanted to hide it from you.
I just...
wanted to wait till you grow up.
I've been taking care of Ping An
because I want to help your auntie.
I never intended to neglect you.
Can we not talk about this?
I... I want to apologize to you.
I'm sorry.
I've let you down.
Can I make my own decisions from now on?
Yes.
I already talked to the coach about letting me participate in the training camp.
Training for singles.
In a while, I'll pack my luggage and leave.
My teammates are waiting for me.
You're leaving so soon?
I'll first train for a month.
And afterwards get even more intense training.
To get good results in the Singles Rookie Tournament next year.
Ping An waited all night for you.
Ping An.
Please open the door.
I'm leaving.
Ping An.
You told me before...
"Thank you for playing badminton together."
I want to tell you the same.
I was very happy to play doubles with you.
I have fond memories of what we experienced together.
But from now on...
I want to try being on my own.
I'm going to practice playing singles.
Make sure to layer up when it's cold.
Don't catch a cold.
Slow down when you eat.
Don't rush.
Promise me.
Take good care of yourself.
Take care of myself.
Training.
Come back tomorrow.
I can't come back so soon.
Training is Monday to Saturday.
Come back on Sunday.
Okay.
If I'm free on Sunday
I'll definitely come back.
