Don't run, slow down.
Xiao Ou.
Xiao Ou,
why you don't go to sleep?
[Open]
Hello.
Fine,
I'll go visit her tomorrow.
Fine.
Sure, see you tomorrow.
Hello,
Xu Zhi.
Are you available...
to visit Xiao Ou tomorrow?
Here, have a drink first.
I don't drink while working.
You're not like your father.
Really?
People always say that I was like my father.
People say whatever they want.
You're right.
He tells lies to build his network.
That's how he makes people like him.
Not all liars...
are bad.
People weren't...
this hypocritical before this.
Tian Fang,
your job is to...
find Mu Lian Sheng.
Tell me,
have you found anything?
Look at this.
Where did you get this?
You asked me to go find the fake Tian Fang.
I fell into Changchuan's trap.
Many fans wanted to help me because I was innocent.
Put it short.
Who gave you this?
I don't know.
I received an email from a stranger.
And the video's in it.
It...
does look like child abuse.
And it needs to be investigated.
But what does it have to do with...
Changchuan and Mu Lian Sheng?
I wanted to tell you,
but you didn't allow me.
Fine,
tell me then.
Where was I?
Fans wanted to help you.
They thought I was innocent and wanted to help me.
I contacted a fan from Dalian...
who knew someone working at Changchuan.
So I went to Dalian.
Who's working there?
Say it.
Mu Jing.
Mu Jing who works at Changchuan.
You know Mu Jing?
No, I don't.
But I recognize that outfit worn by...
that kid in the video.
I went to find Mu Jing, but she wasn't home.
I saw her daughter.
Her name's Mu Lian Sheng, right?
Now I know that's her name.
She was wearing...
this outfit too.
It's obvious that she's being abused.
If what you say is true...
and she's Mu Lian Sheng,
her mother Mu Jing should have known about it.
I'm curious to know that. That's why I'm here.
Ask Mu Jing one more time.
Maybe she will tell you something.
I did visit those who know Mu Jing...
at Dalian.
They said she's a strong mother...
who...
wanted to live her own life.
But life was so suffocating...
and she made some mistakes.
Mummy Pig.
Peppa Pig.
Xiao Mu,
Lian Sheng wants a Peppa Pig toy.
Go get her one after work.
It's not expensive.
I'm sorry.
Mu Jing, it's you.
It's been a long time.
Do you still remember me?
We were in the same high school.
I'm Fei Fei.
You're Fei Fei?
What a coincidence.
I've asked Xiao Lu out for afternoon tea.
Come and join us.
Xiao Lu.
I'm sure you remember her.
She's a committee member of arts.
Xiao Mu, do you still remember her?
Mu Jing.
That's good about being old classmates.
We all know what each other did.
Am I right, Mu Jing?
Mu Jing, let's not stand here.
Have a seat.
We'll talk while drinking.
Okay?
Here.
-We... -I...
Join us.
We haven't met for years.
I have a call.
Mum, I miss you.
I don't want Peppa Pig anymore.
I need to pick up my child. Let's meet next time.
Wait, Mu Jing.
Let's add each other on WeChat.
I'll organize a class reunion.
I'll tell you then.
Here's my QR code.
I'll go now.
Please attend it on time.
Mu Jing almost broke down.
She's a single mother.
Being lonely and poor...
changed her.
She was afraid of facing her friends.
Mu Jing,
you're so busy indeed.
I invited you for many times, but you never came.
I'm sorry for being late. I picked up my kid.
That's why I didn't bring any gift.
It's okay. I'm glad that you're finally here.
Make yourself at home.
It's just...
a class reunion.
Does it look good?
What a beautiful teacup.
Mum, play with me.
I'm sorry!
It's okay.
She didn't do that on purpose.
How much is the cup?
I'll pay for it.
Forget about it.
It's limited edition.
And now it's broken.
Lian Sheng!
Come here!
What a naughty child.
You did something wrong. Why didn't you say sorry?
I'm sorry, mum.
It's my fault. Don't be angry.
Lian Sheng,
be a good girl...
and everyone will praise you.
But I can't.
I must always work hard because that's what I need to do.
No one will praise me.
And whenever you do something wrong,
people will criticize me for being a bad mother.
Get it?
As a single mother,
she was always looking for...
someone with whom she could share the burden.
Then, she met Xiao Wu.
And they got together.
Yes, her circumstance...
and the pressure she faced.
Everyone's sorry for her.
But is there another side...
of the story?
Due to the pressure,
does she see her daughter...
as a burden?
A desperate person...
tends to do...
unexpected things.
But...
judging from her reaction after losing her child,
I don't think...
she's abusing her child.
What about...
her boyfriend?
Shang Wu.
What kind of person is he?
Jia Qi,
I'm back.
Captain Guo.
We don't know much about him.
But we do know his parents have passed away.
He's quiet man who runs a small bar.
He doesn't mingle with people.
I know right.
Life...
left Mu Jing no choice.
She grabbed on...
the first lifesaver she saw...
when she was drowning.
And...
Shang Wu's that lifesaver.
Maybe you're right.
Mu Jing is a mother...
and a woman.
Fine,
give me that email address.
I'll look into it.
That's it?
What's wrong?
Nothing.
I'll take a picture.
Shouldn't you go ask Mu Jing...
or Shang Wu about it?
I've arranged that.
I'll deal with it myself.
Are you Xiao Wu?
The police have found it out.
You'll be caught soon.
Who are you?
I was the one who found your kid.
This is fun!
Go faster!
This is fun!
Mum, why you don't have a bike?
Because I have a big car.
Faster!
This is fun!
Is it fun?
Go faster!
Faster!
This is so fun!
Xu Zhi.
Xu Zhi!
[Tong Le Welfare Home]
Xu Zhi brought a little girl...
back from Dalian.
I think she probably adopted her.
She might feel uncomfortable with me asking her that.
She doesn't even have a boyfriend.
And now she has a daughter.
I think that's why she went to Dalian.
Don't overthink. Just go home.
Anything else?
I'm sorry.
I think...
she found out who I am.
You met her?
How could you do that?
She's forgotten what you look like.
Haven't you promise me...
not to see her again?
You don't deserve to see her!
I won't do that anymore.
Even if I want to,
Xu Zhi won't willing to.
I'm here...
to let her know that...
her birthday is 15th of June.
She's a Gemini.
You must tell her that.
It's very important.
There's no way I'm telling her that!
That would make me a liar too.
She's abandoned by her biological mother.
And her adoptive mother lied to her.
She'd feel very upset!
I'm sorry.
How's it going?
Have Mu Jing and Shang Wu said anything?
I'm a policeman.
Now, I have a question for you.
That email address you gave me...
was useless.
Did you do something to it?
No, I didn't.
It's an official account...
because I'm a public figure after all.
There're many kinds of fan.
I have no idea who they are.
I'm sure you gave me those videos...
because you felt sorry for Mu Lian Sheng.
But you can't hide anything,
otherwise she'll be in grave danger.
What do you mean?
Both Mu Jing and Shang Wu have gone missing.
We don't know where they are now.
I'm not hiding anything.
Why are you suspicious of me?
The suspect who kidnapped Mu Lian Sheng...
mentioned your name.
Isn't that suspicious enough?
What can I do?
I can't stop others from using my name.
Arrest me as a suspect then.
Do you have any wine?
I was trying to...
prove myself to my father.
But it's...
getting out of hand.
I think I should help him...
to get rid of what's been bothering him for thirty years.
Then, he might forgive me.
What's been bothering Commissioner Guo?
He can't forget...
the fire that happened thirty years ago.
Why don't you tell me that?
We writers...
love listening to stories.
Tell me about...
that mysterious case of Commissioner Guo.
What's mysterious about it?
It happened thirty years ago.
It's a family of three too.
It's a human-caused fire too.
And a little girl who went missing.
You bad uncle!
Turn off the fire now!
My mum is scared of fire!
Get out.
It's been thirty years.
She probably doesn't want to recognize me as her father.
My poor daughter.
Where are you?
Because she was there when the fire happened.
She might know something.
Hello.
Are you Xiao Wu?
I'm here in Beijing.
Where are you?
I'll go find you.
Fine.
Good night.
Mum,
can you stay here...
until I fall asleep?
Sure.
You can leave after I fall asleep.
Okay.
Mum,
I don't want to go to school anymore.
I know you want to go to school very much.
But you worry about me.
But Xiao Ou,
we can't go to school for now.
But I promise you.
We'll have...
our normal life back soon.
Mum,
I really don't want to go to school.
I want to go to work...
and get off work with you.
We'll do everything together.
All the reason that...
we should get our normal life back.
I simply want to be with you.
Xiao Ou,
I was being thoughtless...
in sending you away.
I won't do that anymore.
I promise you.
That's not what I meant.
I'm not afraid of being sent away.
Then, what are you afraid of?
I don't want to leave you alone.
Xiao Wu, have you found Lian Sheng?
Soon.
It's a call from a stranger man, can we trust him?
Yes.
After the call,
I immediately packed my stuffs and left the house.
At the street corner,
I saw the police going to our place.
Do you know who he is?
But he said he could help us find Lian Sheng.
Xian Wu,
if we manage to find Lian Sheng,
let's take her home...
and live a good life together,
okay?
And the police will stop going after us.
Jing Jing, you're right.
I was being a bully.
Go find Lian Sheng.
I promise you.
I'll be good to you.
Can I come in?
It's late, you still stay up?
Neither do you.
Let's have a sleepless night then.
You never sleep well.
Yes, I never sleep well.
Why you don't take sleeping pill?
I don't want it.
I need to take care of my three daughters.
I don't want to be a drowsy mother...
like a puppet.
I met the person that abandoned me.
She didn't say anything.
I still remember...
you liked jogging when you were in high school.
Am I right?
That's a strange reason.
I went to the playground.
A stray dog was chasing after me.
It was probably hungry.
The faster I ran, the faster its chased.
That's how I fell in love with jogging.
It's so strange.
You know what,
I always like dogs.
But because of you,
you're scared of dogs,
that's why I never keep one.
Look.
There're many ways...
to release negative emotion.
What's your way?
Me?
I like meditation.
Why don't you try to do it?
I meditate too.
But I do it my own way.
Me?
Enough.
Mum,
can you teach me...
how to be a good mother...
like you?
First of all,
you need to reach a compromise.
Second,
you must ask for help.
Your child is also a human.
She's just like us.
She needs whatever we need.
You can't do every single thing by yourself.
Come back home.
Let us help you.
Feeling sleepy?
Come on.
let's go to bed.
I want to sleep here.
Fine.
Can you stay here...
until I fall asleep?
