[Adapted from Qiang Yu's work, Reborn]

It's chilly outside.

Do you want to take a hot shower?

It'll make you warmer.

I didn't bring any clothes.

It's fine. You can wear mine.

They're all washed.

They're clean.

Don't worry.

You're not thinking anything weird,

are you?

I'm not that kind of person.

Thanks.

I'm off to buy something.

Stay here.

What's wrong?

It's been making noise.

I think it's not feeling well.

Go to the drawer over there.

There's some medicine.

The one on the left?

Yes.

Its leg seems injured.

Did it fall?

Maybe.

I'll apply some ointment.

It should be fine.

Be good.

You'll heal soon.

Don't move. Be good.

It's almost done.

Almost.

You're amazing.

It's nothing.

My dad is an outstanding surgeon.

No wonder he wants you

to become a doctor.

Do you feel better now, Chirpy?

What do you think of this name?

Chirpy?

Yeah.

You're calling it?

Because it makes this chirping sound.

Doesn't it suit it well?

You've come up with a name for the bird.

Chirpy.

Chirpy.

Do you like this name, Chirpy?

Chirpy?

Chirpy?

Do you like the name?

By the way,

about those two new patients,

I've asked around.

They're from Xianghu.

So your cousin is fine.

Don't worry.

Thank you.

No need to thank me.

Anyway, I didn't think

you'd be so brave

to demand justice for your sister.

I used to think

you hated her.

Qiao Beiyu and I share the same blood.

It's more complex than simply liking

or hating each other.

I just find her pathetic.

But then again, my whole family

is pathetic, right?

No.

If I hadn't existed,

Qiao Beiyu could've grown up in Shunyun

and had a completely different life.

I'm the one who pushed her out.

I have no right to hate her.

But she has every reason to hate me.

She wouldn't.

You don't have to comfort me.

I understand.

It's because I stole her life,

so I feel responsible

for demanding justice for her.

Even if I don't like her,

I'd still do the same thing.

But since Jinrui is all right now,

I'm relieved.

Anyway,

I truly

admire your courage

and what you've done.

Don't you think Chirpy is a lot like me?

We fell right after learning to fly.

Both of you will get better.

But before that,

let's get something to eat.

Then, you'll recover faster.

Thank you.

Hello.

See you.

Is this Jiang Nian's mom?

Sorry. I'm Qiao Qingyu's mom.

Yes, I called a few days ago.

I want to ask Jiang Nian

if Qingyu has contacted her.

Please think carefully.

Is there anything you haven't told me?

You heard about it?

Yes, with all your connections,

maybe you could find a way.

1351339.

Ma Mingkai.

Try to recall it.

Recall it carefully.

You...

Hello?

Hello.

Is this Qingjiang Road Police Station?

Yes. Are you Qiao Qingyu's family?

Yes, I'm her mother.

We just pulled a female body from the river.

She's about twenty.

If we find her, I'll...

I...

I'll talk to you later.

What happened?

Where's my coat? I...

What has happened?

They pulled

a female body from the river.

The corpse

doesn't match your daughter.

The age doesn't fit.

I'm afraid they've made a mistake.

What are you talking about?

I want to take a look.

Fanghao...

The ages don't match,

so there's no reason to go.

Wait. Listen to me.

Wait.

Fanghao...

I'm afraid they might make a mistake!

No. It's not Qing.

I'm afraid it's her.

No, it's not her.

If anything happens,

the police will inform us, all right?

Not bad, right?

Are you leaving

after you get better?

Where will you go?

Somewhere larger, with more people.

Beining, Jiangzhou.

Do you have money?

You helped me print some materials,

took me to the doctor,

and let me stay at your place,

I'll pay you back after this.

It's just that I lost my purse.

I'll pay you back as soon as I get paid.

Qiao Qingyu, what do you mean?

Do you think I did all this for money?

Since you've decided to leave,

I'll go with you.

Anywhere is fine.

Don't get me wrong.

I've been thinking about leaving home.

And it's good

to have company.

Besides,

you get sick all the time.

I'm not comfortable

with you going alone.

I know you're serious,

but please don't rush into anything.

I'm rushing into anything.

No, what I'm saying

is thank you for helping me.

You were so kind to come all the way

to find me.

I owe you that.

I helped you not because I'm kind.

Well.

Anyway, I'll decide

for myself.

You can't stop me.

I just want to go with you.

I insist.

All right.

[Missing Person: Qiao Qingyu]

Mom.

It's already late. We should head home.

Have you seen this student before?

She's from your school.

No.

Have you seen this girl before?

No.

Please take a look.

Have you seen this girl?

Thank you so much.

Qingyu.

Qingyu.

Mom!

What's wrong with you?

Watch where you're going!

I'm sorry.

Qingyu.

I'm so sorry.

What's it?

Mom, she's not Qingyu.

Anyway,

we've called the police.

They're more professional in searching

for missing people than us.

Let's go home.

Okay?

There, there, Mom.

Let's head back.

Mom.

How's my playing?

Nice.

I'm not playing this for free.

What's this?

It may not be worth much,

but this is my lucky charm.

I've been carrying it with me.

Here you go.

Qiao Qingyu, I was just joking.

I don't want it.

I know.

But now is the toughest,

the loneliest time in my life.

You're the only one by my side.

This is a thank-you.

All right. I'll take it.

Well...

This will be a token between us,

but it's not a love token.

I won't take advantage of you.

What are you trying to do?

It's nothing. Give me a moment.

A gift in return.

You know what?

I noticed it

when I first moved here.

To be fair, I met it

before you.

I think I'll sleep

in the chair tonight.

No.

You'll sleep here tonight. Take the bed.

I'll sleep on the carpet.

Oh, right.

Well, the rope barely

holds tight.

I'm a gentleman.

I won't peek at you. So don't worry.

Qiao Qingyu,

how about I tell you a bedtime story?

Hmm.

Do you remember

the first time we met?

You were in a fight.

Also, you teased me at the riverside.

You wanted me to pay for a tree.

But then, I bit you.

I guess we're even.

Actually, that wasn't our first meeting.

I remember five years ago

when I went to Huanzhou Theater

to see my mom.

Sheng, wait here.

Your mom will meet you

once she's done.

Everyone, hurry up.

We have a meeting in ten minutes.

Three, two, three, four.

Five, foot out.

Five, six, seven, go.

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

Two, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

Three, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

Four, two, three, four.

Stop.

Remember the moves

I just mentioned.

It's almost time. Go put on your makeup.

(Watch on www.kisskh.do to support Admin)

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

Two, two, three, four,

five, six, seven.

I never expected

to see you again after five years.

But

I recognized you the moment I saw you.

You were peeking at me.

I didn't.

You started dancing.

Besides, you should thank me

for improvising on the piano for you.

Honestly,

you were cuter

as a kid.

People were dancing to Swan Lake,

but you were dancing to Duck Pond.

Don't be ridiculous.

What's that noise?

It's an earthquake.

Earthquake?

It's an earthquake. Come with me.

Earthquake?

Don't worry. I once read from a book.

It says

if you hide in the corner

of a load-bearing wall

during an earthquake,

you'll be safe.

Plus, the tremor doesn't feel strong,

so we'll be all right.

♪Turns out that what's on my mind♪

Qiao Qingyu.

♪Is your name♪

If it really were an earthquake,

would this count

as a life-and-death experience for us?

Touch wood!

We won't die.

♪The only stubbornness in my heart♪

♪At first sight♪

Wait, if it really were?

What do you mean?

Who's jumping rope

at this hour of the night?

You tricked me!

♪Dreams began to feel real♪

Qiao Qingyu.

♪Turns out that what's on your mind♪

Don't worry.

If it really were an earthquake,

♪Is a place♪

I'd take you with me.

♪Where the same story is held dear♪

♪Fortunately, I'm not sensible enough♪

♪Courage wasn't late too♪

♪Only then does time

not betray our acquaintance♪

Well, what do you want me to say?

You couldn't even keep an eye

on a child that age.

What are you even capable of?

Stop standing here.

Go figure something out!

Calm down.

It's useless shouting at Lusheng.

They're searching for Qingyu now.

Dear audience,

I'm currently at Chaoyang Village.

Last night,

our tipline

received a call for help from Madam Li.

She told us her daughter,

a Grade 2 high school student,

suddenly ran away from home.

The exact reason

remains unclear.

Next,

we'll head to Madam Li's place

to learn more.

If anyone has any information,

please contact our crew immediately.

The bus station, airport,

and train station

have received notification

from the police.

They'd let us know

as soon as there's any news.

Oh. Someone from the county said

they might've seen Qingyu.

They're helping to identify her

from the surveillance footage now.

The scanned photos will be sent over

this afternoon.

Dad, please have some tea.

This family

is ruined by you.

Why are you blaming Fanghao?

Dad, Mom, the reporter is here.

Honestly, I didn't want things

to turn out this way.

I've tried every possible way

to communicate with them,

but nothing worked on them.

I couldn't get justice for Beiyu.

Since the truth is out now,

no matter how mad they are,

they owe Beiyu that.

The weather's getting colder

these days.

Hmm.

Remember to bundle up

when you come or leave work.

I'm leaving early today.

The head nurse set me up

on a blind date.

We'll have dinner and go for a movie.

Oh.

You're always busy.

It's good to take a break.

Have you visited Ming Sheng recently?

He went to France to visit his mom,

and he will be back in a few days.

I saw him

outside the surgery theater yesterday.

I don't think I made a mistake.

He wasn't here for you?

Sheng.

It's my dad.

Stay quiet.

Wait, why are you here all of a sudden?

You didn't answer my call.

When did you come back?

Why didn't you tell me?

Why should I tell you?

I got bored and came back.

I'm a grown-up now.

Do I have to report to you

when I'm back?

Why are the curtains closed?

It's strange.

Here's your allowance.

Don't always eat instant noodles.

Buy some healthy food

for yourself.

All right. I'm leaving.

You always complain

that I treat you like a kid.

Now let me ask you this.

What does growing up mean to you?

It means freedom.

Freedom in words, thoughts,

and actions.

Your understanding is very limited.

The freedom of growing up

means you must take full responsibility

for everything you do.

It's a freedom

saddled with responsibility.

Kids are the freest.

Why?

Because they have

so few responsibilities.

I'm off.

The girl looks so nice.

Why did she suddenly run away from home?

I have no idea.

I heard she stabbed a student at school

with a knife.

Seriously?

The TV station

and the police are looking for her,

but there's no sign of her.

Where do you think

the Qiao family's daughter

could be hiding?

No clue.

I think I saw it in a series.

What's it about?

Am I causing you trouble?

No. I'll change the lock tomorrow.

My dad is like this,

showing up all of a sudden.

He's a terrifying control freak.

That's why I can't spend

another minute with him

or go back to that cold house.

Are you still hoping

for the home you had as a kid?

Well, there's nothing to hope for.

(Watch on www.kisskh.do to support Admin)

My mom's not coming back.

That home isn't complete anymore.

Aren't adults supposed to be

more reasonable?

Why do they all ignore

the elephant in the room?

When we were kids,

they taught us

to be honest, kind, and brave.

But they're nothing

like that.

I used to think

parents were honest, kind, and sincere.

But then I realized

they're weak, selfish, and indifferent.

If everyone becomes so bad

when they grow up,

I'd rather be a kid forever.

Anyway, even though

I'll grow fatter, taller,

and have a mustache

or even wrinkles in the future,

I'll always stay sincere

and young at heart.

I don't have a fork.

Oh.

Sorry.

I'll get you a pair of chopsticks.

You screwed me good, Jiang Xiaoli!

Can you not shout here?

I'll shout right here!

I want everyone to hear it.

I...

It's Mumu.

Jiang Xiaoli ruined my life!

Wait here inside.

I'll go out.

I'll be right back.

Screaming at your wife and child

in a drunken rage.

You're such a loser!

Punk, mind your own business!

Are you out of your mind?

Leave now. Stay away from this.

Just go.

I, Wang Zheng,

had three companies

with over a hundred employees.

Stop shouting.

Leave now.

I planned immigration

and my kid's university.

But now I've lost everything.

It's all because of you two!

Are you shocked?

Mumu's family has

a complicated story.

Her dad did well

with his business,

but later he got scammed.

Since then, he's been down and out.

He drank every day,

which hurt his liver.

From then on,

his temper gets worse

and causes a lot of trouble at home.

I feel bad for Mumu.

Mumu and her mom don't have a choice.

I wanted to help her.

But whenever

I brought it up,

she would stay quiet.

Everyone thinks

Mumu is beautiful,

smart,

a class committee member,

and a top student.

She's perfect.

How could she hide

so many secrets?

Perhaps it's because she's too perfect,

so she doesn't want others

to see her in such a bad situation.

But my dad said

that her dad might not

make it for more than three

to five years.

Three to five years?

Yes.

What are you doing?

Now that I've left home,

do you think my parents would also...

Don't over-think.

You don't know

what happened in her family.

Mumu doesn't like her family.

Me too.

I mean, my dad.

Hmm.

57, 58, 59, 60.

36.7 degree.

Actually, a fever

is like your immune system

leveling up to fight the invaders.

If kids have a fever,

it's a process of self-improvement

for their immune system.

It might look bad,

but it's not.

Congratulations,

you've cleared the level.

If only growing pains

were like a fever,

you could swiftly clear the levels

to get back on the right track in life.

You've done well enough.

Do you have sugar and chili here?

What?

Why are you pouring that in?

Is that how you eat it?

Does it taste good?

I've been eating this way

since I was a kid.

Try it.

No.

Oh, right.

The owner of the breakfast shop

asked me

why I ate a lot every day.

I told him

I was young and growing,

with a big appetite.

Ming Sheng, I think I should go.

I'm pretty much recovered.

People around here started

to recognize me.

Besides, you're buying

so much food every day.

It'll raise suspicions sooner or later.

All right.

Since you've decided to leave,

let's get prepared.

Later,

we'll make a list

of everything we need for the journey.

But starting tomorrow,

you'll do as I say.

Why should I?

Because I'm more experienced

living alone than you.

Because

on the long life journey ahead,

I'll be your only partner.

Eat.

We'll set off after this.

Try one.

Huh?

Try it.

Hmm.

Not bad.

Leave me alone. I want to drink!

If I die, it's better for all of us!

Get out! Two of you, get out!

Sheng.

Sheng.

Sheng.

Sheng.

Sheng...

Something came up at home

and I had nowhere to go,

so Ming Sheng let me stay here.

I see. I just wanted

to sit here for a bit.

It is tough luck

to have you and your daughter!

Don't worry.

I'll keep your secret.

Since I left Nanqiao Village last time,

I've been worried about you.

Then yesterday,

I saw on the telly

that your mom was looking for you.

I didn't realize

things would turn out this way.

Perhaps I did,

but when it really happened,

I didn't know how to face it.

Even though I'm older,

I truly admire your courage.

Do you regret it?

No.

If I had to choose again,

I'd do the same thing.

Mumu, let's both

pull ourselves together.

I can't.

I'm not as brave as you.

Well, what's your next plan?

I'll leave Huanzhou.

Where are you going?

First to Jiangzhou.

I'll make plans later.

Are you leaving alone?

Sheng is going with you, right?

Sheng and I grew up together.

When his grandpa was still alive,

he treated me like his granddaughter.

He even gave me a house key.

After he passed,

Sheng didn't forget his promise

and told me to see this place

as my second home.

I know him well.

He'll take the risk

to hide you here.

He may look wild at school.

But, in fact, when we were kids,

he was the one

who fed all the stray cats and dogs.

Also, boys always

want to be a hero.

They like to show off in front of girls.

Perhaps he just likes

helping the needy.

Honestly, I've been worried.

I'm worried

about him doing something

that could hurt you.

No. He respects me.

I didn't mean that.

Sheng gets impulsive easily.

I'm worried he'll do

the same thing again this time.

Actually, he used to be a good kid.

But after Grandpa passed away,

he fell out with his dad.

Plus, due to the pressure

from his studies

and his plan to study abroad,

he became

rebellious.

He's going to study abroad?

Yes, he is.

His parents reached an agreement

on his future plans.

He'll go to France to study

and become a good doctor.

He fails

most of his papers

because he doesn't care about them.

But he focuses a lot

on learning a foreign language.

If all goes as planned,

he'd settle abroad.
