EPISODE 45

Then what happened?

I think she also realized

she doesn't like me.

I'm afraid to get hurt. I'm not brave.

I hide from the person I like.

Such a person doesn't deserve

to be liked.

Who said so? I like you the way you are.

Xiaoyou, you were fooled.

The person standing here
is not the real Ximen.

No.

Nobody's perfect.

I have a lot of faults too.

I trust people easily.
I lack good judgment.

So my friends always have
to clean up my mess.

Most of the time,
I'm self-centered and strong-willed.

However, I don't think
I don't deserve to be liked

because of these faults.

Xiaoyou.

You always impress me.

Ximen.

Missing your "Once in a Lifetime"
is your problem.

But now it's our "Once in a Lifetime."

I don't want to miss it.

I'm so sleepy. I'm completely drained.

I can't keep my eyes open.

All I can think about is my bed.

How about we go to my room
and sleep together?

Jerk. Don't say these creepy things.

What are you thinking?
I don't mean anything by it.

Hit me again.

-Hit me again.
-So what if I hit you again?

So what if I hit you again?

Xiaoyou, Yifen wanted me
to give you this gift.

-Thank you.
-You're welcome.

-What can it be?
-Open it.

It's a doll Xiaogeng made herself.

It's so cute.

It looks like you.

Is that so? It's quite cute.

There's a letter too.

Xiaoyou.

Sorry for not giving you this gift myself.

I'm graduating soon.

I've already started
my post-graduation work.

Because of you, I met Ximen again.

It made me clearly realize what I want.

To me, that's the best
graduation present from you.

A long time ago,
I made this doll to look like Ximen.

I think it should belong to you now.

I hope you like it.

I used to think that "Once in a Lifetime"
is a romantic feeling.

Something to treasure, to take hold of,

and not let it slip away.

Xiaogeng...

But in this moment,

I think that it's also
an attitude towards life.

When you meet each other, treasure it.

When you missed each other,

be thankful for having it once.

This doll is more suitable for you now.

My "Once in a Lifetime"
was in another stage of my life.

That's enough.

Welcome. What are you having?

Do you want some tea?
We have a special recommendation today.

No.

I don't want to drink tea.

-Give me some coffee.
-Okay.

SAN LIANGCHUN, TASTE OF OLD SHANGHAI

I'm not sure what happened to Xiaoyou
after that morning.

I want to ask but I'm embarrassed.

What has it got to do with you?
You're meddling too much.

If your good friend didn't go

and mess up Xiaoyou's life,
she'd be just fine.

Just like I messed up yours?

Aren't you quite happy now?

Who would've thought?

This person in front of me
stirred up my peaceful life,

gave me the courage to overcome
so many obstacles,

and let me step closer and closer
to him until today.

What?

Seeing my handsome face
made you forget to eat?

That's what you call a feast for the eyes.

Stop being so narcissistic.
Eat your wantons.

Shancai.

Let's eat all three meals together
for the rest of our lives.

What do you think?

Shancai.

Let's get married.

Get married?

I have it all planned out.

Even though your looks are mediocre,
your IQ's mediocre,

your temper is very bad,

and there's a possibility of domestic
violence in our marriage...

Hey.

Okay. It's not just a possibility.
There will be violence for sure.

I don't mind. Shancai, let's get married.

-Is he proposing to her?
-What?

-What are they talking about?
-Really?

-It's so romantic.
-No way.

That girl is so lucky.

Why aren't you answering me?

-He's kidding, right?
-I'm so envious.

Who proposes at this time and place
while eating wantons?

I just said what's on my mind.

And it's almost Chinese New Year.

I plan to visit your parents
at the fishing village.

Your mom likes me so much.

She must be happy to marry you off to me.

This fast?

I haven't agreed yet.

I don't care.

I won't give you any reason to refuse.

Hey. Everyone.

This girl in front of me, Dong Shancai,
has agreed to marry me.

I hope you all can be the witnesses.
And wish us well, too.

Sure.

-All right. Sit down.
-Thanks, everyone.

It's my treat today.

Let's eat all three meals together

for the rest of our lives.

What do you think?

Shancai.

Let's get married.

Am I dreaming?

Just now,

did Daoming Si really propose to me?

Coming.

Miss Dong Shancai.

These are the 520 flowers
Mr. Daoming Si prepared for you.

It represents his feelings for you.

Please place them inside.

-All right.
-Over there.

-Thank you.
-There you go.

What a stupid boy.

He gave me something that's a waste
of money and cannot be kept.

But it smells quite nice.

Are there really 520 flowers?

Let me count them.

335, 336

337, 338, 339, 340

341, 342, 343, 344...

364, 365...

370, 371, 372

373, 374, 375

376, 377, 378

379. 380...

380, 381, 382, 383...

390, 391, 392, 393...

514, 515

516, 517, 518, 519.

Why is it still 519?

So what do you think?
Do you like the roses?

You don't need to call and thank me.

Daoming Si, you were supposed
to give me 520 flowers.

It's just 519. Where's the other one?

No way.

Did you miscount since you're too stupid?

How's that possible?
I counted 800 times. It's still 519.

Eight hundred times?

Who would be so lame to count it
that many times?

You're the lame one. I don't care.

I want 520 flowers.
It can't be missing one.

All right. Somebody's here.
I'll deal with you later.

Because there's another one here.

Why are you so lame?

You even hid one flower.

You dare say I'm lame?

See how I'll deal with you.

No.

-Don't.
-Come here.

I'm not going over there.

Come here.

Turns out 520 flowers are a lot.
I've never seen it with my own eyes.

I haven't seen it before either.

Daoming Si is so romantic.

If somebody gave me this many flowers,
I'd marry him right away.

You're talking about Ximen, right?

How are things between you two lately?

What does that shy look on your face mean?

Shancai. We're together now.

Together?

You and Ximen?

Yes.

Wait.

What do you mean?

Do you mean that you're in a relationship?

Yes.

Does Ximen feel the same way?

Yes, I'm sure.

We're officially together.
It happened that day I went to see him.

Xiaoyou.

I have so many questions right now.

But seeing that you're so happy,
I won't ask you anything.

As long as you're happy,
everything's fine.

No wonder.

After you went to see Ximen,

you changed your new QZone profile picture
to one with a bright smile.

Turns out you've succeeded in love.

That's right. It was taken that day.

It sounded so nice.

When I heard the music
from outside earlier,

I was thinking who could play
such a nice tune in school aside from you.

Turns out it was you.

Why are you back in school today?

I suddenly wanted to come back
and play here.

I feel like I won't be back
for a long time.

Before I leave the country, I want to
reminisce about playing music here.

You left a lot of memories
in this music room.

It would surely miss you when you're gone.

Did you say yes to Si's proposal?

Yes.

Why does it feel like you're worried?

I'm not sure either.

I feel like

so many things happened between us.

Maybe there's more yet to come.

Don't worry.

The two of you overcame so many trials.

Nothing can bring you down.

Mr. and Mrs. Dong.

-Please let Shancai marry me.
-No.

I strongly object to this.

Daoming Si is so thoughtful.

He even brought a skin care package.

But this is too sudden.

Shancai hasn't even graduated yet.

Since I've decided to work
at the Daoming Group,

I might be traveling around a lot.

I'm afraid I'll be too busy
and have less time to spend with Shancai.

Are you not confident about Shancai
or is Shancai not confident about you?

No.

Shancai and I are both very confident.

However...

However,

you don't want your mom
to interfere with your relationship.

So you're ignoring how she feels
and want to get married right away?

How can youngsters like you
be so impulsive?

Mom.

Sorry.

We didn't mean to make you and Dad mad.

We just don't want to face
the problem with his mom.

Daoming Si, you know
that we really like you.

You're very respectful and well-mannered.

You're an outstanding person
inside and out.

And we know how nice you treat Shancai.

But have you ever thought
about her position?

If you get married just like that,
how would she face your mom afterward?

Shancai.

Your mom is very traditional
and she values family and harmony.

Yes. Mrs. Dong is right.

I'll ask my mom to allow me
to marry Shancai now.

Now?

Isn't your mom overseas?

She should be awake by this time.

I'll make a video call
and tell her about this.

No.

Don't.

Shancai.

Your mom is right.

We need to do this sooner or later.

Let's not evade it.
Let's face it together.

CALLING MOM

SI CALLING

Hello?

Mom.

I'm at Shancai's house with her parents.

-Hi, Mrs. Daoming.
-Let's say hi too.

Hello.

Hi.

Mom.

I'm here today to ask her parents
and you to allow Shancai and I

to get married.

Si.

Do you know what you're doing now?

Yes, I do.

I want to marry Shancai
as soon as possible.

There's no other woman for me.

Let me say something.

To me, marriage is not child's play.

It's between two families.
We can't deal with it lightly.

Both sides' parents must agree
and acknowledge it.

We can't do this rashly.

That's right.

I agree with Mrs. Dong on this.

Mom, I really hope you can allow
Shancai and I to get married.

Si.

Marriage is not child's play.

Even more so for the Daoming family.

We have to plan it carefully.

Plan it carefully?

Mom.

-So you're agreeing.
-You...

I'm busy now. I don't have time to talk.

When you're back home,

we can discuss
the marriage-related matters.

She agreed.

It seems your mom is not
that firmly opposed to this marriage.

My mom knows me well.

Once I've made my decision, it won't
change no matter how she opposes it.

And this is

my marriage we're talking about.

-I was so scared I couldn't even breathe.
-Here.

Yes.

Daoming Si.

Your mom's aura is so strong.

Just looking at her through the screen
made my hands all sweaty.

Look. They're still wet.

So what if you've sweat a lot?
Look at me pretending to be calm.

Actually, I was really scared.
My heart was beating so fast.

It's still out of rhythm now.

If Mrs. Dong was not firm
on getting my mom's permission,

I want to marry Shancai now.

These kids.

If you really love each other,
does it matter if you wait a bit longer?

All right. Your dad and I
will go to Shanghai next week

and wait for your mom to discuss
your marriage, okay?

Okay.

Come on.

SQUID KING

"Squid King's signature
Eight Treasure Spicy Sauce."

Shancai.

Your Eight Treasure Spicy Sauce
is so popular.

That's right.

Shancai came up with a lot of flavors
for our neighbors and friends.

Lots of people are selling squid here now.
It's becoming a squid street.

Eight Treasure Spicy Sauce
with fresh squid.

What a nice idea.

That's right.

Do you know? Two days ago,

somebody came to discuss
franchising with us.

I didn't really understand it,

but I have my future son-in-law.
I don't need to worry.

Of course. I'll handle it.

-Mom, I'll go and make preparations.
-Okay.

Me too.

You don't have to go. You're our guest.

Let us do it.

Mother, I won't be a guest any longer.

We'll be family.

Calling me Mother feels so good.
I'm so overwhelmed.

Call me again.

Mother.

Go and help.

He called me mother.

I can't believe I'm seeing
Daoming Si in an apron.

This really goes against his image.

Daoming Si.

My room is very small.

Are you sure you want to sleep here?

Don't worry.

It's not my first time sleeping
in a so-called small room, okay?

But you're sleeping with my dad this time.

So what?

I'm not sure if he snores.

Even if there's thunder,
I'll still be able to sleep.

Here. A small fishing village
has no nice hotels.

-Thank you, Mr. Dong.
-It's fine.

You're so tall. It must be hard for you
to sleep in a small room.

Well, it'll have to do for tonight.

-Okay.
-Let's share the room.

Okay.

Let's sleep.

By the way...

By the way, I heard you helped out
at the store today.

You must be tired.

It's fine. I'm not tired.

Please take care of Shancai from now on.

Don't worry. I will.

Shancai looks like her mom
and their tempers are the same too.

They could be fierce.

Actually, they're very gentle
and kind deep inside.

You have to be more patient with her.

Yes, I know.

Also, you're so handsome.

If a girl throws herself at you
in the future,

you must refuse her.

So that you won't hurt Shancai.

Don't worry.
I won't be interested in other girls.

All right.

And also, some bad habits
cannot be tolerated, such as gambling.

Everything is over once a man gambles.

Mr. Dong, don't worry.

-I won't gamble.
-Okay.

You don't.

But sometimes, a man has to do things
for his image or to make friends, then...

They'll say they had no choice.

I was bad when I was
in senior high school.

But my good friends helped change me.

They're very good people.

Don't worry.

Yes. I...

Am I nagging at you?

I know.

You all come from well-known families.

I'm the unsuccessful one.

What right do I have to educate you?

To put it bluntly,

I'm just an ordinary dad
who's worried about her daughter.

Mr. Dong.

Please don't say that.

I was attracted to Shancai
because of her personality.

Her world view, her values.

You taught her so well.

You gave her so much love.
That's very incredible.

Really? You really think so?

That's great.

I don't need to worry about
entrusting Shancai to you.

It's true.

Shancai is really a very nice kid.

All right. I'll stop.

If I go on, I'll...

I'll regret marrying Shancai off so early.

I'll stop. Let's sleep.

Mr. Dong.

Let me take care of Shancai.

I won't let her down.

Let's sleep.
Do you want to sleep on the bed?

No. You go ahead.

Good night.

That's great, Shancai.
I'm so happy for you.

So am I the first friend to know
about your marriage?

Of course.

Goodness.

You're the first one to get married
in our senior high school class.

I can imagine the whole class
attending your wedding.

It would be so much fun.

Do you remember when Daoming Si
hit Yan Zhibu at our reunion?

On your wedding day,

those guys who wanted to pursue you
would surely get Daoming Si drunk

so that he won't be able
to sleep with you.

All right, Xiaoyou.
Aren't you getting too excited?

Of course I'm excited.

I've seen your journey with Daoming Si.

From initially hating each other

until he pursued you so relentlessly.

He likes you, but you didn't like him.

After you already liked each other,
his mom created trouble.

Then you two
experienced life and death together.

I know what happened
better than anyone else.

And I can relate to it better than anyone.

Now that I think about it,

if you didn't keep on advising me

and encouraging me

and served as my friend and love analyst,

Daoming Si and I
might have already broken up.

Thanks to you,

we're still together.

So it's all because of me?

Yes.

Then I'll ask for a big red envelope
from Daoming Si.

Sure. I'll ask him to give you a big one.

-Don't lie to me.
-Why would I do that?

Perfect timing.

Tomorrow, F4 will make a speech
in Mingde as outstanding graduates.

I'll tell him if I see him.

Tomorrow?

Why? Do you have a date?

I have a date with Ximen.

-You won't get a red envelope then.
-No way.

On your wedding day,

I'd surely ask Daoming Si
to give me a big red envelope.

You should be the one giving us
the red envelope then.

What do you mean "us"?

Is your heart is already one
with your husband

to ask me for a red envelope?

That's so sweet.

Yes. We are sweet.

Xiaoyou.

Beloved students.

Mingde is a university full of elites.

This university helped develop
many outstanding talents.

Among them are Mingde's
legendary students.

F4.

F4.

-F4
-Yes.

Everyone knows who I'm talking about.

Now, may we please invite Ximen
to come up on stage on F4's behalf

and say a few words.

Beloved teachers

and students,

good morning.

I'm Ximen Yan.

Today, I return to Mingde with great joy.

And hope to bring you some inspiration.

Mingde University
has the most professional courses

and the best teachers.

But friendship is the most
important lesson

that's not taught in books.

I have three important friends in my life.

At Mingde University,

we studied together and grew together.

Let me share our story with you.

This auditorium

is where F4 won many awards,

especially for the bridge competition.

Because of the many awards we received,

a lot of students came forth
to challenge us.

That's right. Everybody knows
and has heard rumors

about the bets.

The most ridiculous one

was eating slippers upon losing.

So, what do you want from me?

What do you want?

Treat me to dinner.

What did you say?

Yes, we all know that.

But we still don't know
if it's true or not.

All right.

I'll tell you the story
about eating slippers.

There was a student
who confidently challenged us.

He was sure he's going to win.

At the bridge table, he declared

that the loser would eat his own slippers.

He lost in the end.

When he stood up, we just realized

he was wearing slippers.

Of course.

We didn't really let him eat his slippers.

Later on, when we saw that student again,
we forgot his name

-and called him, "Eat slippers."
-I already forgot his name.

-Me too.
-That's how

the story of F4
making someone eat slippers

spread like wildfire.

This story then became
one of the legends in school.

In Mingde, we laughed,

enjoyed, cried, and suffered.

In life, there are always ups and downs.

But I'm very lucky

because I was not alone.

There were always three friends
who were with me.

And never left my side.

We're not real brothers,
but our ties are even stronger.

We know each other

more than we know ourselves.

The famous British philosopher
Francis Bacon once said,

"Friendship not only lets people overcome
feelings of resentment and depression

and walk towards a cloudless sky,

it can also rid them of dark thoughts

and always make them think
with light and reason."

That's the best way to describe F4.

Beloved students.

Mingde can be considered
a new beginning in your lives.

In the future,
you'll fulfill countless dreams.

Daoming Si.

Come and visit us after you graduate.

-Don't worry.
-Yes.

After I graduate, I'll come and visit.

He's so handsome.

-Really?
-You all have to miss me.

-You have to honor your word.
-No problem.

-Please sign this for me.
-Okay.

Can I take a picture with you?

Me too.

Here. Please sign this for me.

Look here.

He's so handsome.

-I want it too.
-Daoming Si.

Please sign this for me.

-Let's take a picture.
-Please sign this.

Please sign here.

-Look here.
-He's so handsome.

I'm so happy.

Hey.

Green shoe guy.

What do you want?

What's this?

A broken phone.

Hey! I'm not done yet!

That's enough.

Ximen.

-Can we take a picture with you?
-Just one.

-Look at the camera.
-Look here.

Huaze Lei too.

-He's so handsome.
-Thank you.

Let's take another one, okay?

Let's go.

-Bye.
-Come and visit often.

Green shoe guy.

Why did you wear that?

To bring back embarrassing memories
and infuriate me?

There are so many people here
and you're so silly.

I was afraid you won't be able
to find me. So I wore this.

Why should I go find you?
Can't you come find me?

Is this how a boyfriend should be?

You...

You two are really a strange couple.

Must fighting be your way
of communicating?

That's right. Isn't it good
to talk about how you really feel?

Shancai. Do you know?

When you called me "Green Shoe Guy,"

you've already captured my heart.

It hasn't changed since.

Si.

Did you know?
We'll talk about our marriage tomorrow.

Don't forget about me.

Don't let me wait all alone.

Ximen.

Just say yes to Meizuo.

I'll surely give you two
a big red envelope.

Shancai.

After discussing your marriage with Si,
you're already considered as Mrs. Daoming.

Before that happens,
we want to throw Si a bachelor party.

I didn't even know about that party.

Isn't the party organizer very rude?

You're too sensitive.
Aren't we telling you now?

We'll do it tomorrow night.

That's right.

Shancai. Tomorrow night, Si is ours.

Stay away.

All right.

He's all yours.

You can have him for tonight.

Don't be shy.

-You don't have to be shy.
-All right.

Let's go.

Honestly, I'm quite envious.

I'm fine.

There will still be trouble
whether you're in love or not.

I'm fine too.

You're just fine?
Don't you have a date tonight?

You're fine?
Are you purposely infuriating me?

Do you two have time tonight?

I smell something fishy.

What's up?

What else?

The usual antics.

It's been a while, okay?

We helped you set it up last time.

Tell me, are you helping out or not?

I'm attending
a music professor's gathering tonight.

Bye.

I have to go to an activity
for the occasion tonight.

Bye.

Hey.

I'll do it alone then.

Ximen.

Why are you here all alone?

-Your speech was great today.
-Yes.

I feel proud of being part of F4 too.

By the way, can I have the bridge room?

Chen Qinghe.

Present.

Are you free tonight?

Me?

Yes.
