ADAPTED FROM THE NOVEL OF THE SAME NAME BY ZHU YI ON WWW.JJWXC.NET

BEIYU, OFFICER CHEN'S HOME

My house is a bit small.

Hope you like it.

Come in.

Mom. Why are you back so late?

I'm starving!

Who is she?

Let me introduce a new friend to you.

She'll be staying with us for a while.

Give me a hug! Welcome to our home!

Be gentle. Don't be so reckless.

I'm sorry.

Do you want to try this? It's super delicious!

I've already eaten. Sorry.

If there's anything you want to eat or drink,

- just tell Xi. - It's really good!

- I'm not hungry, thanks. - Just try a little.

Let me show you our secret base.

This is our secret base!

What do you think?

We can read here and talk about our secrets.

Or even play games.

Do you like it?

Come.

This is my mom's room.

Just ignore it.

Come in. And this.

This is my bedroom.

Come in. Let me show you something.

Isn't it awesome?

Warm in winter, and cool in summer.

We can squeeze in however we like.

Oh, do you play games?

I think you look like

that Bone Spirit from Fantasy Westward Journey.

Seriously, you really do!

But I think you're prettier than her. What happened to your eyes?

Xi, Yifan!

Come eat!

Coming! Let's go. Time to eat.

Alright, the food's ready.

Why did you make such a feast just because Yifan's here?

Do I usually starve you or what?

Dig in, Yifan. Make yourself at home.

Oh, right, Yifan.

My name is Chen Xi. The "Xi" means "cherish".

Doesn't it sound a bit old-fashioned?

I used to really want to change it.

But my mom told me I should learn to cherish things.

And I was like, cherish what exactly?

Until I met you guys.

We?

Actually, you're not the first girl to stay at our house.

Before you came, other girls stayed here, too.

At first, they weren't very happy.

But ever since they came to our house, all the girls

became so much happier.

So, Yifan,

you have to trust me.

As long as I'm here, I'll make sure

you're happy and cheerful.

Alright. Why do you talk so much while eating?

Finish your meal first. You'll have plenty of time to chat later.

- Okay. - Yifan, eat more.

Mom, what time is it now?

Are you serious? Can't you check yourself?

I have something to do. Take your time.

- Where are you going? - Yifan, eat more.

I need to change my university preference.

Can't you do that after eating?

Submitted!

Now, I can go to the same university as my idol!

Can I borrow your computer?

Sure. Go ahead.

Take a seat.

What are you going to do? Need my help?

I want to change my preference.

You have an idol, too?

I just want to leave everyone I know behind

and go somewhere no one knows me.

That's all.

Yifan, don't be scared.

Just finish changing it first. I'll leave you to it.

3,834 DAYS

Boss, sure you don't need to go to hospital?

No need.

Boss, why did you hit him yourself?

We could've just called the police.

He is in a bad mood lately. Stop talking.

I already said no.

Are we doing business or not?

Let's go.

What a fight.

There's a long cut

on our boss's face.

Yet he refused to go to hospital.

He just treated it himself.

Boss is here.

They know each other?

- You got hurt? - None of your business.

Why are you here?

What exactly happened between you and Dian?

I want to know that, too.

You drove her away,

and now act like you know nothing.

I've been searching for her for six months.

During these six months, I never thought about giving up.

She might be in Hong Kong, China.

How do you know?

Dear passengers,

we regret to inform you that Flight R1307

is delayed due to weather conditions.

Please check for updates at the boarding gate.

Thank you for your understanding.

I don't want to see her living like this either.

If there's any misunderstanding between you two,

- maybe I can help clear it up. - There is no misunderstanding.

But I heard

you've always minded the fact that she disappeared

after the college entrance exam.

What I said before about her and I planning

to go to Yihe University together was nonsense.

I made it up just to mess with you.

But you didn't react,

so I thought you didn't care.

Then why did she suddenly apply to Yihe University?

I don't know either.

AIR CHINA

But if I had to guess, it might have something to do

with her uncle's family.

I know she had a hard time back then.

I also heard her aunt yelling at her.

And it wasn't just her aunt.

There was also some... some Uncle Che of hers.

She never told us about it.

But one time, when Qiao was on the phone with Dian,

Qiao overheard it.

She said there was someone

who called himself Uncle Che.

He said a lot of strange things to Dian.

After that summer after the college entrance exam,

Dian moved away. No one knew where she went.

Where is she now?

I think I saw her at the Star Ferry Pier in Hong Kong, China.

I called out to her, but she didn't respond.

Then I followed her. She ran into a building.

I searched for days after that but found nothing.

Can you give me the name and address of that building?

- Sure. - Thanks.

But I'm really not sure if that was her.

Flight R1307 is now boarding.

HONG KONG, CHINA

Wen Yifan? There's no such person here.

Could you check again?

I told you, no such person here.

But can you describe her for me?

Wait a moment.

Here, look.

I see.

But as far as I remember, her surname isn't Wen.

Not Wen?

Look. She registered under the surname Sang.

She already moved out.

Thanks.

She was so beautiful.

Of course, I remember her.

But she always looked like she had a lot on her mind.

She seemed really unhappy.

Every day,

she just ate bread and bottled water.

That was her whole meal.

I have no idea

why she was living like that.

BING'S TEA HOUSE

Why are you showing up this late?

Sorry, I'm late.

There's a lot to do!

Yan, you don't even know if Wen Yifan

is in Hong Kong, China.

Why don't you come back to Nanwu first?

How are you going to find her in such a huge city?

Besides,

doesn't your department have a new project to launch?

The marketing team is waiting on you, too.

A ship can't sail without its captain.

NANWU

The number you are dialing is powered off.

Please try again later.

Still no news?

Thanks for your help.

I appreciate it.

Come on. Let's get lunch.

There are still three meetings left.

I'm not hungry.

Since you're back at work now, stop looking so gloomy.

Even if you're upset,

Wen Yifan won't come back.

If you ask me,

if Wen Yifan is really in Hong Kong, China,

she's either studying or working.

She wouldn't just be hanging around

and enjoying the view all day, right?

Didn't your grandparents live in Hong Kong, China, before?

- Can you ask them to help look into it? - Of course, no problem.

But what if Xiang Lang was just seeing things?

Look at those thick glasses of his.

He's definitely nearsighted.

Maybe he mistook someone else for her.

This time, I found the hotel she once stayed at.

The receptionist said a girl from Nanwu stayed there before.

Could it just be a coincidence?

She said that the girl's surname...

was Sang.

I'm sorry.

Still no news about Wen Yifan.

Grandma, didn't you ask a few of your old colleagues?

You think my connections are so great

that I know everyone in Hong Kong, China?

But a few of my friends in finance and education

agreed to seriously help look for her.

Grandma, thank you.

Don't worry.

If it's meant to be,

just like those two,

you'll find your way back together.

Right, trust me.

She was gone for so long before,

but in the end, you still found her.

I hope I get that lucky again.

Kid,

have you heard of the Law of Attraction?

If your belief is strong enough,

you'll get the result you want.

I'm good at reading people.

He doesn't seem like someone who gives up easily.

Am I right?

Wendy,

do those shoes fit you?

- Those... - Sen,

- who is she? - I'll explain later.

- Are you two dating? - I'll explain later.

All of them...

You've met before. They're a bit wild.

So, if you have any problems,

just come to me.

Everybody,

let me introduce your new instructor,

Miss Wen.

You can call her Wendy.

Hello, Wendy!

I remember you.

How's your movement training going?

I'm doing much better now!

I'll check on it later.

- And the rest of you? - I'm Candy.

I'm Bella.

You're a Bella, too?

Yes.

Why are we switching teachers?

Our previous teacher had a family emergency.

Wendy teaches really well!

Say hello to Wendy.

Hello, Wendy.

Alright. I'm Wendy.

From now on, I'll be teaching you ballet. Is that okay?

- Yes! - Yes!

Then, let's get ready

and start class, okay?

- Okay! - Okay!

Mom.

When are you going to Hong Kong, China?

The day after tomorrow, in the evening.

Take this.

Isn't this the gift I gave you a few days ago?

Why are you giving it back?

Aren't you going with Haoan?

Look at your skin.

You're out in the sun and wind every day.

Be mindful of aging.

Make yourself look nice when you go out with him.

Maybe he'll fall for you even more.

Mom, I don't care if he likes it or not.

This is the real me.

Besides, we're going to find Wen Yifan,

not on some date.

I know.

You're so independent now.

I don't even know how to help you anymore.

I'm afraid I might just be a burden to you.

Mom, what are you saying?

How could you be a burden to me?

When it comes to relationships, I have my own judgment.

You don't have to worry about it.

Alright.

Fine.

Come on. Let's do our skincare together.

Qiao,

what exactly are you unsure about Haoan?

He's a great guy.

And he treats me really well.

Then, isn't that good?

I just hope he can love me in a way

that's different

from his past relationships.

What do you mean?

I don't know.

It's just a feeling.

That's why I'm still waiting.

Are you sure?

Grandma's friend is a professor at the university.

He really found a graduate student

named Wen Yifan.

Plus, Xiang Lang has seen her before.

And Sang Yan found the hotel where she had stayed.

These clues are pretty clear now.

Are we really not going

to tell Sang Yan?

Last time,

he was so disappointed when he came back.

And besides, I'm worried Wen Yifan will reject us again.

Maybe we should go and try talking to her first.

Yeah.

Dian is really stubborn.

Even if we find her,

convincing her to come back to Nanwu won't be easy.

If we don't find Wen Yifan,

we'll be short a major shareholder for Overtime.

Maybe... I should sell my shares to you at a discount,

so you can take Sang Yan's place.

Stop joking.

Don't overthink it.

Let's find her first.

Hello. I have a reservation.

Mr. Su, welcome back.

Would you like one room?

- Two. - One room is fine.

It's not like we've never shared a bed before.

What are you afraid of?

I just think staying in the same room

will make it easier to talk to Dian.

Thank you.

You seem pretty close with the receptionist.

No, not really.

I just stay here

whenever I help my grandparents with things.

Feels like you're a regular here.

Have you been here with Wang Linlin before?

No.

What about an ex?

Or the ex before that?

Or the one before that?

My rule is,

never go on trips with girlfriends.

You have a rule for that?

Traveling means spending all day together.

If your values and habits don't match,

you'll be arguing the whole time.

And I also worry

we'd break up before the trip is even over.

That'd be super awkward.

But...

I feel at ease when going out with you.

Even though...

relationship doesn't mean you have to change for someone,

I think...

I really have changed.

How so?

Well...

I feel like...

I've become more relaxed.

When I'm with you, I can say anything.

I can laugh and cry.

Life feels so much happier that way

and so much more grounded.

It's like I can tell you anything

and share everything with you.

But there's one thing

that's a bit complicated.

What is it?

Right now, with you beside me,

I feel like I'm burning up.

I want to rush over,

hold you in my arms, and kiss you like crazy.

But I'm trying so hard to control myself.

I have to be honest...

It's really tough.

I want us to be together.

I've been waiting so long to hear you say that.

Wait.

Did you bring protection?

How would I know I should plan ahead?

Then...

I'll buy some tomorrow.

Let's sleep.

Aren't you getting in?

I am.

LYCHEE YOGHURT DRINK

You... can't sleep?

You... can't either?

Then... let's just stay here and wait for the sunrise.

So...

Can we make it official on social media?

Here.

- Thanks. - The school office is so annoying.

They won't release student info

because of privacy laws.

Qiao, don't we have a smarter way to do this?

It's way too hot. Going around asking one by one is not the way.

Can't you be a little patient?

Hello. Do you know Wen Yifan?

Sorry. Do you know Wen Yifan?

Sorry, I don't.

Thank you.

Hello. Do you know Wen Yifan?

No, I don't.

- Have you asked her? - Alright.

In just two weeks,

we'll be performing on stage. Are you nervous?

- Yeah. - If you're nervous,

then we need to practice more.

You're not nervous? Then,

I'll demonstrate it again for you.

Stand in fifth position.

Remember, when you jump, cross your feet in the air before landing.

Okay?

Hands up. Second position.

Ready. One, two, three.

Good. Now, let's try it again with the left foot.

Fifth position.

One, two, three.

Got it?

Alright, show me one more time, okay?

Come on.

Is your foot okay?

I'm fine.

I can cover the lesson.

It's okay. I'll be fine in a bit.

Really?

Molly, show me one more time, okay?

Get ready.

Three, two, one.

Sen, you're so pragmatic.

You only treat me to a meal

when you're too shy to ask a girl out.

You talk too much.

Don't make things up. I treat you to meals all the time.

See? You admitted it yourself.

How many dates have you been on?

I should be the one treating you today.

Thank you guys for helping me reconnect with dance.

No worries.

Let's just call it a celebration for your return to ballet.

Yifan said that after her injury, she stopped dancing.

You even knew about that?

No. You were late just now.

We were chatting.

Same here. I've lost count of how many times I've broken my toes.

That must've been rough.

I'll have the coconut peach gum milk.

It's great for recovery after an injury.

I have it all the time.

Thanks.

Sweet. Really good.

But in life, getting hurt is inevitable.

You can get hurt dancing.

You can get hurt cutting your hair.

Even trimming your nails can go wrong.

But it's okay.

We recover after getting hurt.

Then we get hurt again.

Then we recover again.

That's how we become unstoppable.

Got it, Yuqing?

More or less, we'll all face setbacks, right?

But life is fair.

You'll have a hundred setbacks.

You'll have a hundred setbacks.

I'll have a hundred setbacks.

But isn't it better to face them sooner

rather than later? Right?

Right? Right!

So, I'm really happy now.

Because I've already been through so much.

Are you guys happy?

Are you happy?

Maybe.

Have you had a lot of setbacks?

You're really annoying.

Fine. I'll eat.

Thank you, Sen, for the lesson.

Yifan, does it make sense?

Check, please.

Sen is such an optimist.

He used to be a second-string dancer at the New York City Ballet.

I remember he was there for about four years.

He finally worked his way up

to an opening in the first team.

He was all set to perform in Paris next month.

But then, while celebrating

with a steak he had just bought,

a speeding car came right at him.

And his leg...

His dream was gone.

He spent a long time recovering.

You can imagine how painful it was.

But that's just who he is,

always optimistic, always upbeat,

and always willing to help others.

And guess what the first thing he said

when he came back on crutches?

He said,

"It doesn't matter. I can still stay here

in my beloved Hong Kong, China, and do what I love the most."

That's what he said.

What were you talking about?

- Talking behind my back? - No.

No one was badmouthing you.

I was just saying you're optimistic.

Look at your reaction.

I'm starting to think you really were badmouthing me.

I swear I wasn't.

But it's fine.

I'm used to it.

He said he's competing in a ballet competition

next month.

Right.

Talented people are just built differently.

There's prize money involved.

People are realistic like that.

They only join for the money.

Look, Wen Yifan!

- Dian! - Go ahead.

Dian!

I missed you so much! Dian!

You've lost weight again!

Why are you here?

Because of you, obviously.

Tonight, we're staying up all night talking.

At your place or my hotel?

I have to work tonight.

Maybe tomorrow. How about it?

Alright.

How did you even find me?

Thanks to him.

Yeah, me.

I missed you so much!

Qiao, I booked the restaurant.

I'll send you the location.

Tomorrow, 1 p.m.

In the end, they still found me.

JULY 18TH

QIAO, SANG YAN

SANG YAN

WEN SHUANGJIANG, I'M FURIOUS I'M FURIOUS THAT YOU NEVER TOLD ME

WHAT HAPPENED IN THOSE SIX YEARS

I'M FURIOUS AT MYSELF FOR ONLY NOW TRYING TO UNDERSTAND YOUR PAST

WEN SHUANGJIANG YOU ALWAYS TRY TO PROTECT EVERYONE ELSE

TRUST ME, I CAN PROTECT YOU LET'S TALK, OKAY?

You little brat. Where have you been hiding for the past six months?

I'll follow you anywhere.

I will go with you

to the ends of the earth.

I don't need to hide from you.

I can tell you right now that I'm in Hong Kong, China.

Che Xingde,

I will never be afraid of you again.

I will make sure you pay for what you did.

Just running away

only hurts everyone in the end.

Ugh, I'm exhausted.

What are you doing?

Recharging my skin.

I already promised Sang Yan.

If I find Wen Yifan, I'll text him right away.

Why won't you let me tell him?

She left Sang Yan without a word.

She must have her reasons.

I have to find out where she stands first.

Wouldn't it be faster

to just let Sang Yan and Wen Yifan talk it out themselves?

But what if she met someone better

during this time?

I'm telling you,

that's impossible.

Dian has so much to offer.

There must be tons of guys after her. How is it impossible?

Indeed.

Sang Yan

isn't much to look at.

He's got a sharp tongue and a bad temper.

For Wen Yifan to find someone

better than him, that's way too easy.

Even if she hasn't met someone better,

she's been living in Hong Kong, China, for a long time now.

She's definitely been through a lot.

How can you be so sure her feelings haven't changed?

What if she never planned on getting back with Sang Yan?

If they don't get back together,

it'll take him years to get over it.

So, let's hear what Dian has to say tomorrow.

Now, eat your noodles.

Or they'll turn to mush.

What's this?

A sexy nightgown.

Um... It's my mom's...

I mean,

it's my mom's sleepwear.

I have no idea how it ended up in my suitcase.

Let's eat the noodles.

How are we going to bring this up with her?

We can't

just ask her outright if she has a new boyfriend.

She wouldn't tell us anyway.

Why don't we ask her how life in Hong Kong, China, has been?

Let's start with something casual,

then bring up the tougher questions.

- How about that? - Sounds good.

What would you like? Check the menu.

Dian!

You can sit here.

Thanks.

Check the menu and see what you'd like.

- Did you guys order yet? - Not yet.

I'm just so happy we found you.

Can I tell Sang Yan where you are?

Right. He's been searching for you like crazy.

I'll tell him myself.

Alright, let's order.

Okay.

Then...

- let's just order something for her. - Yes.

Fine.

What do you think they're talking about?

I have no idea.

"Sang Yan, I want to break up."

- Could that be it? - No way.

If she really dumps him...

I'm afraid... Sang Yan will... get even more bad-tempered.

Stop jinxing it.

Dian.

Here you are.

He's coming to Hong Kong, China.

THE STORY IS NOT OVER YET...

Sang Yan...

How have you been?

The guy who still owes me 20 bucks

disappeared to who knows where.

How could I sleep peacefully?

Can we meet?

HUGE THANKS TO EVERYONE INVOLVED AND TO ALL THE FANS OF THE FIRST FROST!

TREAT YOURSELF WELL AND THE WORLD WILL HOLD MORE LOVE FOR YOU!
