(Fireworks of My Heart)

(Adapted from the novel
"A City, Waiting for You" by Jiuyuexi)

(Episode 29)

Mr. and Mrs. Zhai.

Qin Qin is back. Come and sit.

We're just about to eat.

Song Yan didn't stay for dinner

and rushed back to the station.

Gosh.

Where is Zhai Miao?

She went back to school.

She's in that stage
of job hunting, right?

Yes, who knows how she's doing?

Come.

-I can do it.
-It's no trouble, dear.

Just let him do it for you.

You're welcome.

-Is this enough?
-Yes, thank you, sir.

-A girl doesn't eat much.
-Eat more.

You must try my chicken wings.

I marinated them for two hours.
They're especially flavorful.

Okay.

Thanks, ma'am.

Don't be shy.
She made these specially for you.

She put in a lot of work.

How come no one filled my rice bowl?

Sorry about that, I forgot.

I was too focused on her.

-It's delicious.
-Is it?

Okay, okay. I don't need so much.

Your face doesn't look it
but you're too skinny.

-You need to eat more.
-Yeah, right.

Qin Qin should eat more.

She's too thin.

Qin Qin, do you want some?

Let's have a drink.

-Let me get you a glass.
-He found a drinking buddy.

-I'll drink a bit, then.
-Good.

What about me?

This is awkward. I forgot a second time.

Am I invisible to you?

Okay, let's all drink together.

Here you go.

-Don't give her so much.
-Got it.

-That's enough. Thanks, sir.
-Okay.

-Pour more for me.
-Okay.

It's a good day today. Let's drink.

Yes.

-Raise your glasses.
-Okay, let's drink.

Wishing you two happiness.

-Thank you.
-May you have kids soon.

It's too early for that.

I was just joking.

Drink.

That was good.

Mr. Meng.

If there's nothing else,

I'd be going now.

Regarding Hao Qi's project,

follow up with them tomorrow.

-Will do.
-You may go.

Aren't we leaving?

I'm used to arriving early

and be the last to leave.

Guess you don't like to be among crowds.

The vase in your house.

Did I break it when I was drunk?

No, it wasn't you.

I... I'll take a cab.

I can give you a ride.

There's many people outside.

It will be hard to find a cab.

That vase wasn't anything expensive.

Not even one-tenth
of the show's ticket price.

How much it's worth
has nothing to do with me.

I didn't break it anyway.

Then why did you treat me
to this recital?

The other person couldn't come.

It would've been wasted.

Who was the ticket originally for, then?

Since you treated me to a symphony,

let me treat you to a live house.

Not interested.

I get it.

That's something
only young people like us would like.

Your attempt to provoke

doesn't work on me.

I know.

It's got nothing to do with age at all.

It's just that some people look so cold,

as if they're lifeless.

Was that meant for yourself?

Although you're young,

you don't look very energetic.

You can confirm it.

I can.

But there's no need to.

-Hello?
-(Why aren't you at the dorm?)

(Didn't we agree to work
on the assignment tonight?)

(I called you 7, 8 times
but you didn't answer.)

I'll be right back.

(Where did you go?
You didn't say anything.)

I will be right back.

Back to the school?

Let's go.

Do you like symphonies?

Not too bad.

If it's a company I like,

I will go watch it.

I used to think symphonies
are too high class.

I wouldn't be able to appreciate it.

But after experiencing one today,

it was pretty nice.

Thank you.

Don't mention it.

Can you play any instruments?

What do you think?

I think yes.

You look like the type
that learned since young.

How so?

The aura.

So what's the answer?

You're right.

I learned when I was younger.

Piano?

And the cello.

Were you naturally gifted?

Usually, kids learn musical instruments

because their parents want them to.

To be honest,

I admire those who can play
musical instruments.

During the school's
art festivals before,

I always though the girls who played
musical instruments on stage

were really cool.

Although it must have been tough
learning as a kid,

it is still considered a talent.

A talent specifically for performances
in art festivals?

Maybe because I didn't have
the opportunity to learn as a kid.

That's why I'm envious.

Humans are always looking toward things

that they can't have.

Even when the thing

isn't as great as it seems.

Did I say something wrong?

No.

We're reaching your school.

I'll stop at the junction ahead.

Hello?

Still awake?

How did you know?

(I guessed you weren't asleep yet.)

So I tried calling you.

Why?

Not used to it?

A little.

Are you sad?

No.

I didn't expect it
to happen so suddenly.

Otherwise, I could've spent more time
with you at home.

Then it wouldn't be so awkward for you.

It's okay.

It wasn't my first time
meeting Mr. and Mrs. Zhai anyway.

Besides,
they were quite fond of me before.

They're still fond of you.

So what did you do tonight?

Did some administrative work,

group training, read a bit.

Here's news for you.

(Xiao Meng performed outstandingly.)

(It got praise
together with its handler.)

(That dog is really smart.)

(It knew it did a good job)

(and kept wagging its tail,
looking proud all day long.)

(I better put it in its place.)

You didn't name it Xiao Meng
because of me, right?

(What do you think?)

It had to be.

(Or else you're dead meat.)

Why aren't you sleeping yet?

I'm also a little unsettled.

Because you took a long break?

Because I left you alone at home.

(What's so funny?)

Right now, the pillow,

and bed

all smell like you.

Okay, I won't tease you.

I'm going to bed.

Okay.

I'm going to be busy with work.

I won't have time to text you.

Don't think too much.

(I'll contact you once I'm free.)

Okay.

Be good.

Get in the car.

I said, get in.

You went home yesterday?

No.

Mom called and told me.

-What did she say?
-She said because of Song Yan,

you turned your back on the family.

I did not turn my back on them.

I did not.

I will go and see them every weekend.

What's with the smirk?

Don't you know how Mom is?

You're disillusioned.

If not?

Every weekend?

It won't change anything
even if you go home every day.

If you think

being persistent will solve the problem,

it will never work on Ms. Fu Wen Ying.

Since you've chosen Song Yan,

it means you've given up on the family.

Then what do you want me to do?

Tell me to break up
and ask Mom for forgiveness?

Honestly, I won't do that.

Does that mean

you're on my side?

No, I'm not.

Are you happy?

I am happy

when I'm with him.

I meant,

have you been happy since
moving out from Dad and Mom's house?

If we remove Dad and Mom
from the equation,

I wasn't unhappy.

That doesn't mean you're happy either.

The fact is,
I am happy when I'm with him.

Let's see how long
you can remain happy.

Hey!

I hit the spot, didn't I?

That's why you got angry.

Stop the car. I'm getting off.

We're already almost there.

Yan Chen.

Won't you help me talk to Mom?

Help me persuade her.

It's impossible.

Did being in love ruin
your ability to think?

Why would she ever listen to me?

Whether or not she'd listen,
you should still try.

You asked the wrong person, then.

Even if she'd listen to me,

I would never help you.

What...

Meng Qin!

I dare you to act like this
in front of Mom and Dad.

Meng Yan Chen.

Does it make you happy
seeing me in this sorry state?

You got the person you like.

What is there to be sorry for?

Close the door.

(I wish you could be happy too.)

(Don't be so hard on yourself.)

(I really want you to be happy.)

(I know you will.)

(Would you like to go
to a live house at 7PM tonight?)

Are you enjoying it?

To be honest,

not too much.

Do you not like the form
it's being presented?

Yes.

I don't quite like such atmosphere.

Why does it seem like
you don't have any interests or hobbies?

You don't seem like you have
a lot of hobbies yourself.

I really like organizing.

If your house is messy,

I could give you a demonstration.

There's nothing in my house
you could demonstrate on.

You really package yourself up
nice and tight.

You come across as polite,
cultured, a good speaker.

But you're very averse to open up
about yourself.

Instead, you make others
come clean with you.

Like just now.

I was the one who asked you
what you liked.

You didn't answer. Instead,
you got me to tell you everything.

I wasn't trying
to get anything from you.

Yeah, I just told you
because I wanted to.

Insects.

Bugs?

Butterflies.

What kind of interest? Collecting?

I used to dream of becoming
an entomologist,

specializing in butterflies.

I have a room

where I keep all my butterfly specimens,
data and photos.

Can I go and take a look?

No.

That's my house.

Alright, then.

Why didn't you become
an entomologist, then?

Are you doing the job
you've always dreamed of?

No.

Actually, I'm studying biology.

I quite like my chosen specialization.

I'm still trying to get a job
related to biology.

But when I think of the reality,

it's quite depressing.

How so?

Although I'm not ready
to give up on this specialization,

I'm not that good at it.

I wouldn't be a top candidate
for school recruitment.

But after I started my own business,

I get about 20,000 a month.

Competition is quite fierce

in that industry, right?

That's true.

When you're in the industry,

you start to really pay attention
to your physical looks too.

I don't think I look good enough.

I thought about cosmetic surgery.

Do you think I should?

Do you think my double eyelids
need to be more pronounced?

Or maybe a straighter nose?

I don't know.

It's up to you.

You're back.

I'm sorry.

It was really busy and noisy
at the bar tonight.

I left my phone in the bag
so I didn't hear it.

I've had it with you.

Why is it so hard to answer the calls
or reply my messages?

I didn't call you to chitchat.

I called you because of work.

I'm really sorry.
I didn't mean to miss your calls.

I really feel like I'm the only one
working my butt off

managing this account.

Just take the photos each day.

Don't bother with anything else.

Come on, Ye Zi.

You two are are partners.

You should be more considerate
of each other.

Besides, that part time job
doesn't pay a lot.

You could just quit.

That's right, Ye Zi.

Okay.

I'm at fault.

I'll quit all of my part time jobs.

Okay?

March. Go.

Stand at attention.

Left turn.

Dress right, dress.

Eyes front.

Are we confident

about the upcoming competition?

Yes, sir!

Stay calm and collected.

Do your best.

-We await your triumphant return.
-Yes, sir!

-Set out!
-Right turn.

All squads, fall out in turn.

Squad One, quick march, go.

Squad Two, quick march, go.

Squad Three, quick march, go.

What's up?

(Jun, check this out.)

The Guardian Cup?

Champion?

(That's right.)

Comrade Suo Jun, you deserve
half of the medal.

For that, I must thank

our amazing and heroic Captain Song.

Today, when I received the trophy again,

the first thought that came to mind

was to hoist it up high
together with you.

I want to share

Shili Tai's glory with you.

Two championship cups in eight years.

As the captain,

you have done more than enough.

As they say,

there are no weak soldiers under
the leadership of a skilled general.

You did a good job
teaching the rookies too.

Song Yan.

You are my glory.

(And of Shili Tai's.)

I'm really happy
to see how well you're doing.

Do you still remember?

In the past,

we would celebrate the win together.

(Don't give me that.)

At the station,

you have an understanding instructor.

At home, you have
your beloved sweetheart.

Don't be acting
like you're feeling lonely.

Mr. Suo is no longer in the station,

but is still doing thought work, huh?

Not bad.

You're still well-informed.

Of course.

Who am I?

You know what?

I know about every little move you make.

Take a screenshot of me
with the trophy.

I want to keep it as a memento.

(Okay.)

Smile wider.

Look happy.

Got it.

I sent it.

Okay.

Guardian Cup.

You finally fulfilled the pledge
we made back then.

(You managed to keep the Guardian Cup
in Shili Tai.)

(You've done good. Proud of you.)

What's this?

What are you...

I was waiting for you.

Want to play?

I've waited a long time for you.

Should we continue it,

or start over?

Have you guys seen the name list
for the research team?

Dr. Xu made it onto the alternate list.

That's to be expected.

Since Dr. Xu made it onto
Director Xu's team,

despite him being pretty strict,

he's taken Dr. Xu along
on all major cases.

He's closely mentoring her.

Dr. Xu has improved so much
because of it.

Really? Why does it seem like

Director Xu expects a lot from Dr. Xu?

He's particularly strict with her.

I have a feeling that Dr. Xu
might get the spot this time.

What do you know
with that brain of yours?

What do you mean by that?

There's nothing to talk about.

It comes down to her background.

It's already pre-determined.

During the earthquake relief operation,

Dr. Xu did perform very well.

So this is what she deserves.

I think it seems more like
they found an excuse.

I don't think that's right.

There's nothing
really wrong with Dr. Xu.

She doesn't talk much and seems cold,

but she's responsible and reliable.

She doesn't pander to others,

she speaks her mind.

I think that's more liberating.

-I agree.
-Is that so?

Then tell me, why is Director Xu

always putting her down?

Surely it's because his hands are tied
due to pressure from management.

He's forced to mentor her.

But, he is still a professor.

So he has his temper.

-It's so unfair for you, Dr. Yang.
-Stop it.

Don't start saying those things.

I don't want those comments
to get distorted.

Later, people would say Yang Si Jia
is not as good as Dr. Xu

and only talks bad behind her.

-I just feel bad for you.
-Enough.

Thank you.

But save your concern.

As for me, I will naturally become
the deputy chief physician.

As for when that will happen,

it has nothing to do with other people.

Dr. Xu, didn't you drive today?

Dr. Xu, how come
you haven't been driving these days?

Cycling is pretty fast,
but it's too cold.

I can't cycle actually.

I'm taking the subway.

We'll be off, then.

Bye-bye.

-Hurry up, Dong.
-Okay.

Christine fixed her face again.

I mean, she's already a pretty girl.

Why do they like going under the knife?

I think it must be exhausting
being famous influencers.

Also, netizens can be so harsh
when commenting.

They always criticize their looks.

Even someone good-looking
would feel self-conscious.

I don't like her anymore.

Before, I really adored her looks.

These past years,
she's become so plastic.

Look at her fake nose.

Mine needs a fix too.

That guy is so handsome.

Help me get his WeChat.

The stats lately are so bad.

The number of followers is stuck.

It just won't go up.

But our photos and descriptions
are all pretty good.

Yeah.

I guess the beauty segment
is just over saturated.

(Thanks for the invite last time.
I'll treat you to a meal in return)

What is it?

I'm going out later.

Can you help me with my makeup?

You're dating.

I'm not. It's just a friend
from my hometown.

Come on, be quick.
I'll go wash my face first.

Help me pick an outfit
while I was my face.

Okay, go ahead.

Hi, do you have a reservation?

Yes, Mr. Meng.

Okay. Please come this way.

Can you help me hang my coat?

Thanks.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Not at all. I just got here.

I didn't know what you'd like,

so I ordered their specialty.

Here's the menu.

Order whatever you like.

I'm not picky with food.
Anything is fine.

I didn't order wine. Is tea okay?

Sure.

You didn't have to treat me.

The live house before was to thank you

for taking me to the symphony.

You came anyway.

That's because there are
two things in this world

you should never give up on.

Delicious food is one of them.

-And the other?
-Love.

Did you just make that up?

You saw right through me.

Do you really believe

there are things in this world

you should never give up on?

Why not?
