[The Love Equations]

[Previous Episode]

I put a spell on you just now,

a spell that you can't be angry anymore.

The fairy is scattering petals.

Let's break up.

[Episode 23] [The Right to Be Jealous]

Zhao Fanzhou, if you have any last words, what do you want to say?

Zhao Fanzhou?

Let's... break up.

What did you say?

Let's break up.

Zhao Fanzhou,

I don't like you making this kind of joke.

I'm not joking.

Then, can I ask you why?

I'm sorry.

I don't want an apology.

I want a reason.

I'm not suitable to be dating right now.

Are you out of your mind?

What do you mean not suitable to be dating?

Is it because of your mom?

I already told you. I don't mind it at all.

I'm sorry.

Pick up the call.

What if something happened to Auntie?

Zhou Xiao,

let's break up.

What happened to you?

Can you say it and we can discuss it together?

Y-You're still using our phone case.

No.

I don't want it.

Stop crying.

Then, what if I say I don't want to break up?

Zhou Xiao.

What if I said I'm not breaking up with you?!

Calm down.

I was actually joking with you.

Why would I be so shameless? I'm not that kind of person.

I won't cry.

But since you said that you're sorry to me,

it's okay for me to do this. Isn't it?

Zhao Fanzhou, if you come out right now,

I'll consider everything as a joke.

Cai Yasi, how come I've never seen the algorithm you wrote just now?

I came up with it myself.

You came up with it yourself?

Don't keep it from us. Write it all out for us later.

Exactly.

What happened?

Leave him. Let's go.

Thanks.

Zhou Xiao.

It's you.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

You don't seem fine at all.

Then, can I cry it out now?

But it's embarrassing to cry here.

Come on.

So, Zhao Fanzhou really said he's breaking up with you?

But why?

You've asked me so many times.

I already said I don't know.

So...

Did you agree to it?

Are you out of your mind?

What could I do if I didn't agree?

Do I kneel down and beg him?

If you dare kneel down, I'll break your legs.

No, I'll go break his legs.

Sit down. Sit down.

You keep crying like this, aren't you tired?

Can you shut up?

Who told you to start dating right when you got in college?

Isn't studying hard better?

You shouldn't have dated.

Don't be like this. I'm afraid I'll lose control of myself.

Why did he break up with me?

Why did he break up with me?

I don't want to break up.

I don't want to break up. I don't...

♫ I clearly couldn’t bear see you hurt ♫

What era is this?

Boys don't have to use blue and girls don't have to use pink.

You have to break those gender boundaries.

Thank you for sharing your secret base with me.

From now on, don't come here to do your homework by yourself.

You have me now. I'll come and do homework with you.

Look! It's bubble fireworks.

Are you touched?

Look! These are the grand fireworks I prepared for you!

♫ But I don’t dare to taste things that are too perfect ♫

♫ I’m afraid I’ll need an entire life to forget after one taste ♫

Did you not tell me because you're worried that I'd be scared?

Then, what about you? Are you scared?

Don't be scared. I'm by your side.

Don't look down on me.

I even dared to poke at a nest of hornets when I was young.

But Zhou Xiao, this matter is much more serious than poking a hornet's nest.

How can I be so selfish?

♫ It will deplete all that brilliance inch by inch ♫

Additionally, I'm assigning a class assignment.

I want you to read any of the Western classics.

Then write an outline of the story and your impressions of it.

Around 1500 words.

Please email it to me before our lesson next week.

Also, to add on to that.

This class is heavily focused on the art of reading.

It's even more important than my explanations in class.

So for this semester,

I have organized a list of Western literature that you all must read.

Remember to write them down.

I hope that at the end of the semester,

everyone will have at least finished reading half of them.

That's all for today.

Class dismissed.

It can't be him.

He is not the type of person to send a message begging for forgiveness after he regrets something.

You should still have a look at it.

[Notice: Club presidents, it is time for the new semester election.

[Please come to the Student Association when available to get an election form.]

I already said it's not.

The Student Association informed clubs that it's time for an election for the new school year

and asked presidents to go and get a form.

Are you still going to go?

I guess not.

I downloaded an electronic version.

I just have to print it.

I think you should still go.

Perhaps you'll see Zhao Fanzhou, and you can clear up the misunderstandings.

There are no misunderstandings to clear up.

It's just breaking up.

I don't have anything to ask him.

Xiao, you've been too calm after this breakup and it's scary.

Maybe it's because I practiced it once before.

I'm used to it this time.

Let's go.

Please come in.

Hello, what can I do for you?

Hello, I'm from the Detective Club and I came to get an election form.

- Please wait for a moment. - Okay.

Do you know that Zhao Fanzhou requested to withdraw from the Student Association?

I know. He's really strange.

There's going to be an election already and he requested to withdraw now.

Plus, Chen Yu's exchange period ended and he left already.

Now I have to do all the work.

I'm so tired.

Student?

Thanks.

Professor Huang.

Zhou Xiao, you came at a good time.

Can you help me post a recruitment ad for a library part-time worker on the campus forum?

Every time I try to publish it, it says it failed.

A recruitment ad? Are we short-handed at the moment?

Yeah. The third years have all gone out to do internships instead of part-time jobs.

Didn't your Zhao Fanzhou withdraw, too?

Yes. He withdrew.

I'll send you it to you in an email. Help me upload it.

Okay.

Zhou Xiao, I sent it to you. Check it over for me.

Okay.

[Zhao Fanzhou: Withdrawal Application]

Honorable Club President,

I'm a third-year forensic science student in the Medical School, Zhao Fanzhou.

It's my honor to join the Detective Club.

Due to personal reasons,

I will no longer be able to attend club events.

This is my application to withdraw from the club.

I hope the Detective Club will get better and better.

Please approve this application.

Applicant, Zhao Fanzhou.

Zhou Xiao, did you receive the email?

I got it.

[Approved to withdraw.]

[Hello, Zhao Fanzhou.]

[Approved to withdraw.]

Old Zhou, you want some fruit?

Xiao Lu insists on buying it for me.

She says I have to eat different colored fruits every day.

That way, my skin will be rosy; different from everyone else.

I don't want any.

I washed them already. Have some.

This is a gift from the heart of my girlfriend.

Look. I'm being so generous and sharing it with you.

I'm not like you. You never thought to share anything Zhou Xiao gave you.

I'm sorry, Old Zhou.

I... I forgot for a bit that you'd broken up.

Don't get mad.

How about eating some fruit to cool you off?

You're leaving me again?

What I mean is... Look.

I won a national championship.

I just want to share a little of my happiness and I can't.

Go share it with your Xiao Lu.

Of course, I'll share it with Xiao Lu.

But aren't you and I good friends?

I still have to share a little of it with you.

I'm telling you.

Today, I'll get the prize money.

You can go after you eat the celebratory dinner with me.

I don't have any free time.

How can you be like this?

What a party-pooper.

Old Zhou, do you know how much my prize money is?

¥150,000. (about $21,081)

Let's talk.

If you have something to say, just say it.

Just now, I hit you as Zhou Xiao's good friend.

If you have to break up, fine. But you didn't even give a decent reason.

That's going too far.

Now, in the role of a person who likes Zhou Xiao, I'm saying this to you.

Thank you.

After all, this is giving me a chance to go after Zhou Xiao.

Please don't appear in front of her anymore.

Okay.

Don't you have anything else to say?

Is she that dispensable in your heart?

Please take good care of Zhou Xiao.

I will take good care of her, better than you have.

After all, we've known each for such a long time, I'm the person who best understands Zhou Xiao.

That's good then.

When she's writing, she often forgets to eat.

Even if you take it and put it in her hands,

she won't pick up the chopsticks.

But if you put it in her mouth,

she won't see what are you doing and begin to eat.

She doesn't like to watch out for cars when crossing the street.

Watch out for the car!

You have to truly become very angry for her to take it seriously.

Are you surprised, shocked, and touched?

Do you not watch out for cars when crossing the road? It's already 1:00 a.m. right now.

For a girl to be out this late by herself, what if something bad happened to you?

I didn't even know that you came!

Although she might look very simple-minded and heartless,

she actually knows how to act cute.

What?

I put a spell on you just now, a spell that you can't be angry anymore.

You can't really become angry with her.

But sometimes...

she really causes headaches from her mischievousness.

You look like a little cat.

If you do a counter-attack,

she will become unhappy.

Zhou Xiao. Zhaou Xiao?

You're really not helping me bring out the dishes?

I'm not helping.

Don't look at it that she is very curious

and wants to try everything, but actually she is a coward.

Help! I stepped on something!

You have to accompany her the whole time.

It's okay. It's just a plate.

It's just a plate? Scared me to death.

And if she-

Why do you have so much to say? It's not like you're entrusting me with your child.

How to take care of her, I know more than you.

♫ The warm spring made a promise to winter ♫

Are we going to freeze to death in here?

I'll go look for something to keep us warm.

♫ What I promised you has never changed ♫

♫ It is a novel with a bumpy and twisting plot but has a perfect ending ♫

It seems like you can be happy no matter what you encounter.

I already saw that when school started.

Me? I cried before?

On the day of registration, you cried while reading "Journey Under the Midnight Sun."

And then you said that when my phone was vibrating, it sounded like it was farting.

In the end, you laughed.

When you say it like that, I sound like a fool.

♫ Even if the most magnificent rhetoric is used, I’m afraid it cannot be summarized ♫

♫ The meandering melody matches the high sky and wide sea ♫

I think he really did disappear from my world.

♫ Singing of a me that is similar yet a bit different ♫

♫ It is the disappointment of not encountering you on the way to class ♫

It's just that I've never been kissed before. That's why it's a little-

Practice makes perfect

♫ It can only be the shock and thrill when I meet you ♫

If someone suddenly barges into your world,

and you involuntarily got used to his existence;

but one day, he left without any warning signs.

He left your side, left your world.

That must definitely make someone sad, right?

Zhu Bajie is carrying his bride! (T/N: Zhu Bajie is the pig character from "Journey to the West")

Quick, quick! I can't anymore.

♫ The meandering melody matches the high sky and wide sea ♫

♫ Singing of a me that is similar yet a bit different ♫

♫ If I must sing a song for our youth ♫

Why do you keep thinking that we'll break up?

I don't mean anything else.

There's a "what if" for everything.

- I can't mention it? - You can't.

Okay, I know.

You know what?

We cannot mention breaking up because that will jinx it.

It's because we won't break up.

We won't break up.

♫ If I must sing a song for our youth ♫

♫ Perhaps it can be summarized by using the three words "I met you" ♫

♫ The shining melody matches the life and death agreement ♫

♫ There is a different me because of you ♫

I thought this kind of sadness

would leave me grief-stricken as if my heart and lungs would be ripped open.

But what's strange is that I only occasionally feel that pain.

And the level of that pain,

feels endurable.

Mom, take the medicine.

I won't eat it,

unless you tell Zhou Xiao to come.

Did you quarrel with our Zhou Xiao?

No, I didn't.

That bruise on your face that day, was it really from falling down?

Yes.

Then, how come she hasn't come to see me after so many days?

Maybe it's because she has a lot of classes lately and has no time to come and visit you.

She would always called me in the past. If she really doesn't have time,

she would still send me a Wechat message.

Maybe she will call you after she's done with her work.

Son.

Did Zhou Xiao think it through

and feels that she still can't accept my illness?

She wants to break up with you?

No.

She's not that kind of person. Don't think of that nonsense.

You promise? You have to promise.

Can you take your medicine first?

When Zhou Xiao talks to me, she's never mean like this.

Nor is she this serious.

Professor Liu, our new part-time worker will come here soon, I'll have them come here to get their work permit.

Okay, no problem.

By the way, when will the student who resigned come to hand over their work?

- It's today, too. - Okay.

Oh right, Zhou Xiao.

In a bit, can you assist with Zhao Fanzhou's handover of his work?

Okay.

Then have lunch with Zhou Xiao.

When you guys are eating, ask her when she has time to come visit me. Okay?

Someone put the books in the wrong place again.

Is he coming today?

Zhao Fanzhou?

How long are you going to squat here?

Classmate Zhou Xiao.

What are you doing here?

I came to be a colleague with you.

Are you happy?

Yes.

Why did you take a job here?

You see, there's air conditioning here and they pay you.

Why shouldn't I be here?

That's right, the rich man always likes to make more money.

Okay, don't do this with me.

So I can't be nice to you?

Let's go. Let me help you familiarize with the working environment.

Okay, Senior.

Don't flatter me.

We usually have meetings and process data here.

The library staff will usually...

This way! Stupid.

The library staff will usually do their work over there.

We will also do our work there sometimes.

You see, we are going to be colleagues now, I'll cover for you.

Just cover for yourself.

Look.

I don't know why but the computer can't access the school forum these days.

Let me check it first.

You are the most boring person I've ever met.

Let go.

Professor Huang, this...

Professor,

I am the new part-time worker, second year in the Computer Science Department, my name is Cai Yasi.

Hello.

You said you're from the Computer Science Department?

Just in time to take a look at my computer. I often can't get on the school forum.

Never mind. Someone else is looking at it.

Let's let the professional one handle it.

Take a look.

Here.

Is it easy to fix?

It'll just take a few minutes.

It'll be done quickly; it's a small problem.

It's done. Professor, take a look.

It's fixed?

Thank you.

You can hand over the work.

The important thing is to pay attention to the tell him about the work in the Precious Literature Room.

Let's go.

Cai Yasi, do you want to die in the library?

I-I-I didn't do it on purpose.

That's my water bottle.

No problem. I don't mind drinking from yours.

But I mind you drinking from it.

Let's go. I'll show you the documents room.

Let's go.

The love of young people...

is so scary.

Every month, we'll get out of print books donated by alumni for the Precious Literature Room.

Generally, we scan them to make an electronic version and upload them to the online library.

We also make a copy for alumni to borrow.

[Out of Paper. Please add paper.]

The originals will be stored away in the Precious Literature Room.

Students can only use them in here.

Before they can read them, they have to sign for them.

There's no paper. I'll go get some.

I'll go, too. I need to know where they are.

What are you doing?

Are you Popeye the Sailor who eats spinach so you can carry such heavy things?

Could you tie your lips together?

I'll tie them in a bow.

Tie it tight.

Reporting in, Boss. I've already cleaned it all.

Can you clean it carefully?

Don't you see how much dust there is?

I don't.

- Where? - Here.

- Here. - Where? - Here!

Mr. Cai.

I'm telling you. Every week, the Precious Literature Room has to be dusted.

If you do that again, I won't partner up with you anymore.

Okay, okay. I'll do it right.

Give it to me. I'll wipe here. Go over there and wipe it down.

Fine.

You love to wipe shelves so much. You shrew! (T/N: a play on the word "cha" which means wipe and sounds like the last word in "shrew")

What's wrong? Let me see.

Are you okay?

I'm fine. Thank you.

What happened?

I'm fine. It's just that there's a splinter in my finger and I can't find it.

Don't move.

Where is it? I can't find it either.

If you can't find it, forget it. It's okay.

I'll take you to the campus hospital.

Why go to the campus hospital? Such a minor thing...

I don't want some people to think that I don't take good care of you.

Are you crazy?

I'm taking her to the campus hospital.

Hurry up! It's almost the meal period. What if the doctors leave?

I already said I'm fine, why go to the hospital?

If I go, the doctors will laugh at me.

What if the wound becomes inflamed?

You can find the splinter if it gets inflamed.

Hurry up.

Who is it? Why aren't you answering?

It's Zhao Fanzhou's mom.

Why is his mom calling you? Don't answer-

Hello, Auntie, how are you?

Zhou Xiao.

Why haven't you visited me lately?

Auntie, didn't Zhao Fanzhou tell you?

He did. He said you're really busy.

But I think no matter how busy you are, you still have to eat.

How about this. Tonight,

come eat dinner with me. Okay?

Auntie, why don't I visit you another day?

Another day?

Okay, I know you're busy. Although I already ordered takeout.

Oh right, I need to cancel the takeout. Wait a moment, Zhou Xiao.

After I've canceled the takeout, I'll call you back. Okay?

Auntie, wait.

I'll come and visit you right now.

Will that affect you writing your novel?

It won't. I just finished.

Okay, I'll wait for you.

Okay.

You already broke up with Zhao Fanzhou, why is his mom asking for you?

Auntie is in an unstable mood now, I don't want her to be sad.

Your compassion really is overflowing.

If you really love to do charity, why not donate lunches online?

She called you because she's holding her elder title over you.

This is moral kidnapping.

Can you stop spouting nonsense if you don't understand the situation?

What situation can there be?

I think you don't want to break up at all, you still want to be involved.

Whatever!

Auntie is currently hospitalized in the Psychiatry Department.

Exactly, why are you following me?

Didn't you say Zhao Fanzhou's mom is unstable right now? What if she hits you?

Auntie is not that kind of person.

Just stay outside.

I'll go upstairs. I'll call you if anything happens and you can come and rescue me. Okay?

Fine. Call me if anything happens.

I got it. Give it to me.

Hold it.

You said you would treat me!

If you don't come out quickly, I will eat a lot!

Come in.

- Auntie, I'm here. - You're here.

You brought fruits again?

Here, here. Thank you.

We can eat them after.

Put your bag here.

Come and see. I ordered all your favorite dishes.

Thank you, Auntie! I like all of them.

- Quickly, sit down. - Okay.

- Sit. - This is great.

- Here are your chopsticks. - Thank you.

The doctor said I'm almost recovered.

If there are no other problems, I can be discharged next week.

- Really? - Yes.

That's great!

After being discharged,

come visit me at my house. Okay?

Okay.

I'll cook delicious food for you.

Think about it. I'll make you Xiao Zhou's favorite chicken wings.

Actually, he can cook them, too. And he makes them better than me.

In order to take care of me over the years, he has learned a lot.

He made them when he came to my house. It was delicious.

- He's been to your house? - Yeah.

I didn't know about it.

Maybe he didn't tell you.

Sometimes he's just like this, he won't tell me anything.

It's as if he's the adult in the family,

being all old and decrepit.

Sometimes he really does make people annoyed, right?

Yes, very annoying.

Look, I didn't tell him when I called you to come here. You can't tell him.

Or else, he will say "You're interfering with her studies."

Don't worry, Auntie. I am in this collusion with you.

Okay, we're in this together.

Come on, eat.

- Auntie, eat more. - Okay.

Auntie, why did you put everything in one container?

There are many stray dogs outside. When we go for a walk,

we'll feed the dogs.

Okay.

Mom, I'm coming in.

[Preview] I came to withdraw from school today. My mother's illness has relapsed.

I'll tell you the truth. I've liked her for a long time.

- Do you have someone you miss a lot? - Yes.

The kind where you really miss them but you try your best to not go to them.

Yeah.
