[Imperfect Love]
[Episode 21]
I'm busy. Please leave a message.
Why is it always" I'm busy. Please leave a message",
but not "I miss you, please leave a message"?
Please.
Come on in.
Oh, my.
Lian Sheng.
You tried to make calls again?
Uncle Tian Fang.
Did my mom send you to pick me up?
You called my mom again?
I'll leave you both alone.
I only want to listen to my mom's voice.
She...
needs to become better...
before becoming your mother.
She made you a present.
Look.
She made a game for you.
This is the mom I drew.
She didn't forget about me.
Why did she need to become better...
to become my mother?
What I regretted most...
was not asking my child...
about her choice.
You see,
all the messages here...
were because of...
their regrets...
by not making the right choice.
That's because they had doubts...
on themselves or their lives before making their choices.
How do we clear these doubts?
Life is short.
It doesn't matter if we choose to do it or not, it will still come to an end.
Why should we do something regrettable because of our doubts?
I'll be leaving.
Guo Zhi.
Send these to...
your big sister later with Geng Ping.
Why are we sending her...
a bunch of wooden blocks?
Tell her that...
I wanted a model of this house...
as my birthday present.
You burned the one in her room...
so that she can make one like our house?
Just send it to her.
She'll understand.
When will she be back?
Soon.
Auntie Yuan, is this one OK?
Thank you.
It's alright.
Put this at the back of the car later.
Okay.
Guo Zhi.
Come to my house...
after we send these.
My mom wants to see you.
What for?
She wants to ask us...
when we are getting married.
Are you alright?
Who is marrying you?
Who will you marry if you don't marry me?
I have no plans for that. Alright?
Guo Zhi.
Geng Ping.
I'm sorry.
We have too much going on in our family.
She's in a bad mood.
Just go back for now.
I don't think I said anything...
You said that suddenly...
I'll bring this out to the car.
Thanks.
It's alright.
Sit down.
Are you telling the truth?
Geng Ping is a good kid.
It's true that I didn't think of marriage.
It's too early for me.
Mom, I hope...
you're not a parent who's pushing for marriage.
I'm not.
You can choose how to live your life.
I'll support any choice of yours.
This will still be your home...
even after you move out...
from here when you are married.
Thanks, mom.
Go.
Do I need to leave?
I didn't think that Li Ze...
Yes.
It's like I'm living...
in a trial every time.
I'm living in self-doubt.
What are you doubting?
I worked...
in a research institute after graduation.
There was once...
when the institute...
had an exchange student from Yunnan.
We became friends...
after a few meals.
I fell in love...
with him afterwards.
Did he love you?
I don't know.
I accidentally found out that...
he was married.
You feel cheated.
I trailed him,
took photos of him with other women...
and sent them to his house.
Then I realized his wife suffered from depression.
She saw the photos and committed suicide.
So you think that...
his wife might still be alive...
if you didn't send the photos?
I thought about it countless times.
You can't put the blame on...
your love for him in this.
I loved him.
I have no idea...
why you're being so harsh on yourself.
Why are you so harsh on me?
What I wanted to say is...
that you think too lightly of...
what I experienced.
You think everything will be better...
as long as you made me love you.
Love is difficult.
But how can you know it will get better...
if you don't have a try?
You're right.
Just like me.
It's very difficult for me to say...
I love you.
Have you said it before?
Never.
Wan Zi, wait for me.
Sir.
Wan Zi, wait for me.
You brat.
I can't find you anywhere when...
I wanted to sell my trash previously.
Now you're...
going everywhere...
as long there's a crowd.
You don't usually talk a lot.
Why did you change your behavior all of a sudden?
Sir.
I'm promoting myself...
after doing some good deeds.
I was helping the police...
to look for a fugitive two days ago.
The police said I contributed.
So I...
have to spread my heroics.
Really?
Really.
Don't boast.
I didn't.
Sure. See you.
See you.
Goodbye.

Guo Zhi sent these over today.
She told me you would understand.
What does that mean?
Mom is telling me...
not to forget how my home looks.
Your mom is so thoughtful.
Don't let her down.
All mothers in the world wish for the same.
All daughters in the world also wish for the same.
Will you...
accept treatment?
I'm fine.
I don't want to.
I can be with you when you're accepting treatment.
It's still different.
I've already made my decision.
Let's not talk about this anymore.
Why are you so stubborn?
Is it to atone for what you did?
No.
It's because I feel happy now.
Xu Zhi.
I cherish you...
more than my life.
I feel really happy now.
Eat it when it's hot.
Don't play around.
Eat your meals.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Eat.
It's delicious.
For you.
Give me the buns.
Good boy.
Where are the buns?
It's here.
I didn't even get a bite.
Eat.
Geng Ping.
I was doing wrong today.
Let's talk.
I'll wait for you at the cafe that we met last time.
[Tongle Welfare Home]
Guo Zhi.
I'm here. Where are you?
Guo Zhi.
Don't tell me you regretted?
Reply to my messages.
What's wrong with you?
[Guo Zhi]
The subscriber you dialed has switched off.
[Find My Friend] [Guo Zhi]
I've checked camera footage of all service areas.
I'm sure Shang Wu's still in Beijing.
Beijing is so big.
Where can we find him?
There's an arrest warrant.
Mu Jing also told us...
a name of his ex-girlfriend.
We are looking for her.
Pass the ball.
Auntie Song, what's wrong?
Mr. Tian.
I can't find Lian Sheng.
What?
Lian Sheng is missing?
I'll be there right now.
Where are you going?
Who are you?
Lian Sheng.
Don't move around.
-I can't find her. -Don't move.
Search again.
This is bad.
-Auntie Song. -Can't find her.
No, I can't find her.
There's a camera...
by the door.
Have you checked it?
We watched it a few times.
We didn't...
see her going out.
When the kids just arrived,
there was a while when the power...
got cut off.
The CCTV footage didn't work at the time.
There's nothing.
What do we do?
We have never lost a child before.
Did you see any suspicious person...
around the welfare home?
No.
I don't think so.
It's just as usual.
There's no suspicious person.
Officer Guo, do you mean that...
someone took her away?
Let's investigate first.
Alright.
Auntie Song.
Have you checked her bags?
What's in her bag?
Let's bring everything out.
-Bring everything. -I'll go.
What do you think?
I'm not sure.
Do you think Lin Xu Zhi...
took her away?
Lian Sheng thinks Xu Zhi...
is her mother anyway.
She always wants to meet Lin Xu Zhi.
Have you collected them?
Coming.
Hurry up.
Is everything here?
Just these?
Just these.
These are the necessities that we provided.
The iPad...
and the bag Yuan Ling gave her are not here.
None.
Just all these.
-Her clothes when she came was gone. -Yi Kang.
[Lin Xu Zhi]
Do a thorough search here.
[Tian Fang] [Answer/Reject]
We can't be sure...
if someone took her away.
Inform me once you find anything.
Let's go. I'll bring you.
Come here.
Lin Xu Zhi is not answering.
Let's search along the way.
Alright.
I don't know her.
Thank you.
Who is it?
Coming.
Xiao Ou?
Why did you come here alone?
Yeah.
Granny Hui. Am I smart?
Did the people in the welfare home know about it?
Granny Hui. Where's mom?
Where's she hiding?
Xiao Ou.
Tell me...
if you sneak back without...
the welfare home knowing.
Granny Hui, where's the bird?
I miss the bird.
Xiao Ou. You can't do that.
I'm sure the welfare home is searching for you now.
I need to call and inform them.
Granny Hui.
I miss you and mom.
Alright.
Let's wait until your mom returns.
Alright.
Look at you.
You're sweating.
I'll bring you to wash your face.
It's so far.
How did you find your way?
Is that...
mom?
Auntie Zhong, I'm Xiao Guo.
Could you open the door?
Xiao Ou.
Come.
Go inside.
Hurry and Keep quiet.
Coming.
I don't know when Xu Zhi...
is coming back.
Shang Wu. I'm Lin Xu Zhi.
You came here alone?
Yes.
You're interesting.
You sent your father into jail...
while you care about the other kids.
Where's Guo Zhi?
What do you have to get her back from me?
What do you want?
Shang Wu is hiding at the waste station.
Come here at once.
Why don't you...
[Shang Wu is hiding at the waste station Come here at once]
Auntie.
We'll come back again tomorrow.
Have a good rest.
Alright.
Goodbye.
Play a game with me.
I've played this game many times.
Mu Lian Sheng...
can hold on for eight minutes before she fainted in a trash bag.
How long do you think Guo Zhi...
What do you want?
I don't want anything.
I became a wanted person because of you.
My life is ruined.
I want you to have the same experience as mine.
What do you say? Lin Xu Zhi.
Shang Wu.
Will you feel better if you...
cover my head with this?
