AT OFFICER CHEN'S HOME

SANG YAN WHERE ARE YOU? WHERE ARE YOU?

CALL ME BACK WHEN YOU SEE THIS

DID YOU GET YOUR ADMISSION LETTER?

TEXT ME BACK I'M COMING TO FIND YOU

You know what?

I'm going to marry my dream guy!

You think dream guys are that easy to get?

He'll have you wrapped around his finger.

- No, I'll have him wrapped around mine! - Yifan, we're about to eat.

I want to go out for a bit and meet a friend.

- Going out? - Do you want me to go with you?

- No, thanks. - It's raining outside.

It's fine.

Alright, fine. Have fun.

- I'll be back soon. - Okay.

- Thanks. - Enjoy yourself.

I got into Nanwu University!

What's with that reaction?

Bro, think about it...

We can still be classmates!

Plus, you know how bad my grades were.

When I got into Nanwu University,

my grandparents were over the moon.

Back when you said you were aiming for Nanwu University,

I was like, "How good can it be

that you'd go all out for it?"

But I also said,

"Wherever you apply, I'll apply."

I may not have many strengths,

but one thing's for sure, I keep my word.

3,975 DAYS

Because she just did this...

Did you break it?

Can you remember the moves?

- It's fine. - Like this...

Just a little...

What do you want? Do you want to apply more lipstick?

- That's enough. - I'll do it myself.

Left foot.

Sen...

Right foot.

Rise. Left foot.

Everyone should...

Again, left foot.

Right foot.

Alright, drop.

DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR

Hello? Yes.

There's an issue with the music file. You need to check it.

Alright, I'm on my way.

Next up is Dian's group.

- Have you seen Sang Yan? - Not yet.

But he said he's at the airport. He should be here soon.

- I'll go wait inside then. - Okay.

- Don't forget to record it. - Got it.

Are you ready?

Don't be nervous when you're on stage.

You got this!

Wendy, I'll go check the music file at the front desk.

They said there's an issue.

I'll go with you.

Alright.

Come on.

Listen to me. Now, everyone, sit down where you are.

Quick.

We've been practicing

- this dance for a long time, haven't we? - Yes.

I see all the effort you've put in.

Later on,

even if the music doesn't play, I know you've got the rhythm

deep in your hearts.

- Right? - Right.

Now, close your eyes with me.

Breathe in.

And out.

Think back

to the happiest moment when we danced.

Once we're on stage,

just enjoy the moment and feel the joy. Alright?

- Alright. - Great. Stand up now.

Wendy,

they confirmed it.

The music file is corrupted.

It's okay.

When you're on stage, I'll be right here.

Listen, even without music,

we can still dance beautifully.

- Right? - Right!

We're the best. Aren't we?

Yes!

We can do this, right?

- Yes! - Let's go for it!

Alright!

We've prepared for so long. We have to go on.

Yes!

Let's shout it out. Let's do this!

Let's do this!

Bro, do you know what time it is now?

Why are you here so late?

Flight delay.

I'll leave this to you. She's waiting for you.

Thanks!

For the next performance, we're having some music issues.

But they said after practicing for so long,

they have to go on stage, no matter what.

Let's give them a big round of encouragement!

Here come the kids from Sunshine Dance Studio!

SEAT

Excuse me. Where is the children's performance?

Inside. They've already started.

Thank you.

Contestant No. 7, Wen Yifan.

- Excuse me. Coming through. - Alright.

I feel like the guy next to me is Sang Yan.

Probably is.

He's pretty handsome.

Yeah.

More than you.

I think so, too.

That was amazing!

Let's go.

Go.

Take care.

You danced so well today!

Why were you so amazing today?

Everyone was amazing today!

Yeah.

Wen Yifan.

What happened to your foot?

I twisted it while dancing with the kids.

You just got off the plane?

I didn't want to miss your performance.

Where's Qiao and the others?

They said

they wanted to see the night view, so they left.

Are you coming to our celebration later?

Sure.

The kids didn't win any awards today,

but they were happier than if they had won first place.

Me, too.

Seeing you...

makes me happier than anything else.

After coming here,

I checked and knew that I was eligible to apply for school.

So, I was thinking maybe I should give it a try.

Do you really want to go back to school that much?

Not exactly.

I just want to be better.

You're already more than enough.

Only then would I deserve you.

Are you flattering me in a roundabout way?

It was because of him.

He made me feel

like I didn't deserve good things,

and like he could take it all away at any moment.

It's his fault. You don't have to carry this alone.

Understand?

You disappearing without a word

was what really destroyed my world.

Understand?

I love you.

So much.

Looks like it's going to rain.

Should we buy an umbrella?

I should've given you my umbrella that day.

What day?

The day college admission results came out.

When you came to Beiyu to see me.

That day, it rained?

So what if I got wet? Why apologize?

I'm a grown man. Getting rained on is no big deal.

I'm not that fragile.

Stop treating your boyfriend like a delicate flower.

What are you laughing at?

This hotel I booked for you

isn't that great.

It's fine. It has a unique charm.

I'll go check if they have two rooms.

I only booked one.

So, are you planning

to go back home?

It has two beds.

Sit tight. I'll check us in.

Wait here.

- Hello. - How can I help you?

I have a reservation.

Come here.

Sit.

When did you buy the medicine?

Just now.

While you were showering.

Does it hurt?

This leg injury

was got back in Beiyu.

Back then, I was trying to escape from Che Xingde,

the man who called himself my Uncle Che.

I jumped from the second floor.

That's when I got hurt.

Dancing with the kids made the old injury flare up again.

The first time I saw him in Nanwu was one night

when I was covering a car accident.

He was involved.

But nothing happened that night.

The next time I saw him was when we were at Overtime together.

And then later, he applied to be a security guard at my workplace.

I didn't tell you the truth back then.

After moving to Beiyu, Che Xingde lived with us.

He did a lot for my Uncle Wen's family,

so no one dared to say anything against him.

No one dared to cross him.

It was him.

He kept... harassing me.

Wen Shuangjiang...

If you don't want to talk about it, don't.

It's not that I don't want to.

One night, he broke into my room.

I fought back as hard as I could.

My Uncle Wen's family usually didn't get back from selling food

until 3 a.m.

But that night, it rained.

So, they came home early.

Luckily, they came home early.

At that time, I didn't know what to do.

No one helped me.

Not a single person stood by my side.

Not even my mom.

So, I didn't think about anything else.

I just wanted

to get far away from Nanwu and Beiyu.

I wanted to go somewhere far, far away.

I'm sorry. I should've told you all this.

But at first, I really did apply to Nanwu University.

I wanted to go to college with you.

I wasn't lying.

I'm sorry, Sang Yan.

I said a lot of things that hurt you.

But that's not what I really meant.

It's okay.

If there's something you wanted to say back then,

say it now.

I just felt like...

I was the one who changed my application.

I was the one who messed up.

And Nanwu is really far from Yihe.

I didn't want you running around all the time like you did in high school.

It was too much for you.

Anything else?

I never made any promises to anyone.

Only to you.

I know.

GOAL: NANWU UNIVERSITY!

I don't deserve you.

Wen Shuangjiang.

Take that back.

Do you know why I never dated anyone all these years?

Because I only wanted the best.

Understand?

I never saw you as a backup.

All these years,

there was never anyone else. Only you.

I'm sorry, Sang Yan.

I broke our promise.

Stop saying sorry.

I forgive you.

So, from now on, no more apologies.

Okay?

Back then, Che Xingde told me...

it was shameful and humiliating.

My relatives said the same. They told me not to report it.

They said it would ruin my reputation.

That's why I didn't want you to know.

If only I had told you back then.

Wen Shuangjiang.

Don't listen to that villain's nonsense.

Listen to me.

There is nothing shameful or humiliating about this.

Understand?

You did nothing wrong. You did the right thing.

You protected yourself. You were brave.

You should be standing tall, fearless, in the sunlight.

That villain is the one who belongs to the gutter.

Got it?

Thank you.

You protected my Jiang.

Also...

saying all this now

isn't late at all.

If you had told me this back then,

maybe I wouldn't have wanted to date.

Even if you chased me, I wouldn't have said yes.

But back then, you were the one chasing me first.

Didn't you like me, too?

If you like me, chase me properly.

Look at you.

Liking someone but waiting for them to make the first move.

That much pride?

I just didn't know how to chase someone.

And you think I did?

You seem pretty experienced.

You say you're easygoing,

but sometimes, you're really annoying.

- What? - Let me touch you.

What's this?

I fell before.

Where did you get hurt?

I just tripped. That's all.

- How did it happen? - It's nothing. It's healed.

This doesn't look healed at all.

How is this "nothing"? How did you get this?

Why did you stop?

I see.

So, that's why you went out of your way to book only one room

and even tried to cover it up by choosing a twin-bed room.

Fine, I'll go take a shower.

Then...

should I wait for you?

What else?

Or... do you want to skip that and view my body now? Here?

Or here?

Or maybe here?

Are they all your students?

- Do you like this job? - I do.

- Here you are. - Yesterday,

the music file crashed right before they went on stage,

but they still went out and performed.

I was really moved.

And when they danced,

their eyes sparkled.

That pure, simple joy reminded me of so many things.

Honestly, rather than me teaching them to dance,

it feels like they taught me so much more.

Eat up!

Wendy, where are you going?

I'm going home.

Will you come back and play with us?

Of course!

Whenever I have time, I'll come visit you.

Listen up! I'm leaving for now.

But while I'm gone, keep practicing hard.

I'll come back to check on you, alright?

Alright!

Sorry. I had to leave so suddenly.

It's fine.

Didn't we agree on this before? You'd stay until your course was done.

And now, it's about that time.

I should be thanking you for stepping in just in time.

So, he's the one you've been thinking about nonstop?

Who? Me?

When we're free, we'll come visit you.

- Sure. - Alright, drop by anytime.

Can we take a picture with Wendy?

Why don't we take a big group photo first?

Let's take a group picture!

Then we'll take turns for individual shots, alright?

- Okay! - Here, you handle the camera.

One, two, three!

Yeah!

So pretty.

You look so cute.

What? Do you want one, too?

You're smiling so much.

Three, two, one!

Alright.

I guess you don't like this place, do you?

How do you know?

You barely have any luggage.

That tells me you never planned on staying long.

I just want to be where you are.

I'll help you pack.

NANWU

I really admire you.

You have the courage to leave everything behind,

to disappear from the world.

What made you change your mind?

It was him.

He gave me a lot of courage.

He made me realize

that not everything can be solved by hiding in the shadows.

You know, maybe we can't live for love alone,

but love really does give us so much courage.

That's how I felt when I had my child.

The treatment is all done.

You both can rest a little longer.

If you need anything, just call us anytime.

Thank you.

I feel like my looks

just leveled up again.

By lots of levels.

But I am still several levels below you.

We deserve all the good things in life. So, we have to take care of ourselves.

By the way,

will you go back to the TV station?

I've been gone for so long.

Do you think Ms. Qian and Mr. Gan would still take me back?

At worst, you'll just have to pass their test again.

- Have you put on some weight recently? - Have I?

Of course!

You used to be all skin and bones. It hurt to lean on you.

Now look at you, all happy and plump.

I met up with Su Tian today.

Seeing her brought back so many memories.

Want to go back to the station?

What do you think?

Do you like this job?

As long as you like it and want to do it,

no matter what it is, I'll always support you.

You're the most handsome man I've ever seen.

Shouldn't you be shouting that out loud?

I have the most handsome man.

And you're a fairy.

Want some fruit?

Here, have a cherry.

Have you had any sleepwalking episodes recently?

Back when you studied in Hong Kong, China,

being in a new environment must have been stressful.

Did you sleepwalk during that time?

I haven't sleepwalked in a long time.

I think

I'm getting better at handling stress.

From now on,

you just need to keep an eye on it.

No need for further check-ups.

So, can I go back to reporting?

Of course. No one should have to give up their dreams

just because of sleepwalking.

Besides, you're in a really stable condition now.

So, go. Give it your all.

Thank you, Doctor.

No problem. Good luck!

NANWU TV STATION

Back when you left,

I couldn't quite understand why.

- Right? - Of course, she had her reasons.

So, did you find your answer?

This might be a bit direct,

but I'd like to ask you both.

What do you think

is the most important trait of a journalist?

The drive to pursue the truth.

For me, it's about keeping the passion alive.

Even though I don't have the same energy anymore,

whenever I'm the first on the scene, I can still feel

that rush.

And you? Your turn to answer.

I think journalism can protect people.

When the truth comes to light,

all the ugliness in the dark

can no longer hide.

That's why I want

to grow stronger,

to be braver, so I can fight for the weak.

Yifan,

what's ahead will be even tougher.

I like this version of you.

Welcome back.

Thank you, Ms. Qian.

Good luck!

Hello, landlady?

Miss Wen,

your lease is up next March.

I'm taking the apartment back

as a wedding home for my daughter.

I want to let you know in advance,

so you have time to find a new place.

Got it.

- Congratulations. - Thank you.

I've been living here with Sang Yan

for over two years now.

Hello? Ms. Qian?

Yifan, are you at the station right now?

- Yeah. - What about Fu Zhuang?

He's right here.

You two, come down quickly.

We need to head to Beiyu.

Understood.

Ms. Qian said we're going on a trip. Pack the stuff.

- Right now? - Yes.

We just got a lead for a news report.

It's about a high school girl who went missing in Beiyu

a few years ago.

Recently, a woman took a recording

to the police station.

It might be linked to the case.

So now, there's been a major breakthrough.

The police are searching everywhere for the victim's body.

They've formed a task force

and are going all out to track down the suspect.

Who's the suspect?

Apparently, his niece-in-law reported him.

What's in the video?

I don't know the details yet.

BEIYU CITY JIANGJIN DISTRICT PUBLIC SECURITY BUREAU

Hello, sir. We're from Nanwu TV Station.

We spoke to Chief Chen earlier.

Yifan?

- Aunt Chen! - Yifan, it's really you!

It's been so many years.

You're a reporter now?

What brings you to Beiyu?

We're here on assignment.

Seeing you doing well now, I'm really happy for you.

How have you guys been? What about Chen Xi?

She's doing great. She just got engaged to her boyfriend.

After you left,

she missed you so much.

She used to talk about you all the time.

I saw her posts.

The guy is someone she's always liked.

Congratulations.

Let me know when she gets married.

Of course.

THE STORY IS NOT OVER YET...

You've been standing here forever and still haven't washed up.

What are you looking at?

There's a hickey here.

I'm worried I won't be able to cover it. I might not be able to go out.

So, are you

blaming me for this?

Then, what should we do?

What else? I'll figure out a way to hide it later.

Well, I've already kissed you, and now you're trying to settle scores?

But you know,

I'm a fair person.

How about this?

You kiss me here, too.

Go to work already!

- Just one kiss. - Move it!

You're really not going to kiss me?

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!
