(Episode 15, Who Can Resist the One You Love But Can't Have)

Why did you leave so suddenly back then?

Why were you gone for seven years?

You had the nerve to sleep with him.

But you were embarrassed to stay and demean yourself.

Since you left, why did you come back?

I had the nerve,

but I didn't have the guts.

I was afraid you'd kill me if I stayed.

I don't even freaking want to kill you.

I think you're dirty.

I'm proud to be tainted by you.

Please, Young Master Chi, sleep with me just this once.

You're a freaking jerk!

You're right.

I am a jerk.

I was the one who ran away.

And I'm the one who missed you for the past seven years.

I guess you spoiled me.

No one can satisfy me anymore.

Please, Young Master Chi, satisfy me just this once.

Leave him to me.

I'll deal with him.

I'm sorry for the trouble.

I'm home.

You're back.

Why are you blowing so many?

I want to blow one...

for every snake species in your shop...

and make...

a set.

How did you come up with this idea?

Nothing. I just think it's fun.

Okay.

I'll wash up first.

- Take this medicine on time. - Da Wei.

What must you tell me in person?

It's important.

I heard Wang Shuo is hospitalized.

Why is he in the hospital?

I don't know the exact reason.

Guo Cheng Yu told me once about it.

Why don't you visit him?

I'll check on him?

What kind of nonsense is that?

Sit down first.

Why can't you visit him?

You can go...

as Chi Cheng's boyfriend.

That's perfect. Proclaim your ownership.

He didn't say he'd reconcile with him.

Why should I look for trouble?

Why did he come back if he didn't want to reconcile with him?

He was doing fine abroad.

Once he came back, he stayed for half a year.

Half a year?

Yes.

Tell me if he doesn't have the intention to do that.

He hasn't shown up for half a year.

He really hid well.

It's one thing if he has that intention.

I'm just afraid he's not capable enough to do it.

You're quite confident.

Anyway, I'm not going.

I'm not interested in him.

Hello. Excuse me.

Which room is Wang Shuo in?

- Hold on. I'll check for you. - Okay.

He's in Room 309.

Walk straight in there, it's the second room from the back.

Okay. Thank you.

You're welcome.

A pair of kings.

- A pair of deuces. - A pair of deuces?

Let me think.

Let me think.

Killer move.

What do you think?

- Wang Shuo has a lot of energy. - Come on.

- He doesn't look sick at all. - Let's play again.

Xiao Wang, you're so good at playing cards.

I'm just lucky.

- No, you have to play again. - I'm leaving.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

Are you looking for someone?

I...

Wang...

Wang...

Wang...

Wang...I...

I've visited him already.

I have to go.

I'll get going.

Isn't this Chi Cheng's new car?

Hello?

Where are you?

I'm out with a client.

Let's talk later.

By the way,

I have a meeting tonight.

I might be home late.

- Mrs. Wu. - Xiao Chi.

Did Da Qiong call you just now?

Yes.

You didn't tell him I'm here, did you?

No. Don't worry.

This time,

I don't know why it's so serious.

If I didn't vomit bile,

I wouldn't have bothered you...

to come with me to the hospital for a checkup.

I'm just afraid of delaying my illness.

It'll be more troublesome then.

Don't think too much, Mrs. Wu.

It's no trouble at all.

Besides, I'm in charge of external affairs in the company.

I can come out anytime.

No. 127 can do the consultation.

Mrs. Wu, sit down and rest.

I'll go.

Okay.

Is the patient your mom?

Yes.

Doctor.

My mom isn't seriously ill, is she?

You have to be prepared.

Her condition is not optimistic.

The preliminary diagnosis...

is pancreatic cancer.

After the biopsy,

we found...

that it has spread to the lymph nodes,

liver, and gall bladder.

The prognosis is not good.

Surgery is meaningless now.

(Pathology Examination Report)

Pancreatic cancer?

Doctor.

Is there anything else...

we can do?

To make her suffer less...

and prolong her life.

Compared to other malignant tumors,

this kind of cancer...

is not as effective with treatment.

And she's old.

Chemotherapy might mentally burden her...

and backfire.

So it's better...

to reduce the patient's pain...

and improve her quality of life.

The family members...

should spend more time with her.

Perhaps this way,

she can live longer.

I understand.

Doctor.

Please still check and see if there's...

a better treatment method.

We'll do our best to cooperate.

Please, Doctor.

Xiao Chi.

Don't tell Da Qiong yet.

If he finds out,

he'll be miserable from now on.

My son,

you're finally back.

You're fine. You told me you were dying.

Aren't you cursing yourself?

If I didn't say I'm sick,

will you come home?

Liar! You liar!

You lied to me!

It's so late. Why are you still up?

So you know it's late too.

Where did you go?

I told you.

I was with a client.

What a difficult client.

You've been with the client until this hour.

Yes.

Whatever the client says,

I don't dare to disagree.

The client won't let me leave.

I can only stay with them.

I'm sleeping at the clinic.

Wei Wei.

I'm sorry.

I won't make you wait this late again.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Don't try to trick me.

Let me sleep for a while.

The calmer the enemy is,

the more I can't panic.

Didn't he just stay in the hospital in the hospital for a while?

Didn't they just catch up?

I can treat this as a reward to you.

But I can't be angry in vain.

Tonight,

you can sleep on the sofa.

Stay cold.

Let me tell you.

I'm not forgiving you.

I'm just afraid you'll freeze to death.

He met his ex behind my back.

He's at fault.

Why did I freaking eagerly wake up so early...

to make him hangover soup?

Hello?

Mr. Chi.

Move your stuff...

our of the house.

I'm renting it out.

Okay.

I'll stop by later.

Thank you.

Wei Wei.

It's a bit sweet.

Later,

I'm going to the suburbs.

Didn't I leave my stuff with the landlord?

Do you want to go together?

I'm not going.

Later,

I'm having a meal with Xiao Shuai.

Haven't I moved all my snakes?

What are you doing here at this hour?

In the months since you moved out,

I've been hanging out here.

You just didn't know.

Get the heck out of here!

No.

Don't freaking play games with me.

Go back where you freaking should, I'm telling you.

Look at yourself.

It's like you're worried I'd catch a cold.

Stop being freaking dramatic, okay?

When you moved,

you left a snake egg.

This is it.

Isn't it cute?

Why are you always here?

Where's Chi Cheng?

He went back to the house in the suburbs to move his stuff.

Why didn't you go with him?

I didn't feel like it.

Did you visit Wang Shuo at the hospital?

What do you think of him?

Isn't he very ordinary?

He's not ordinary.

He's fair and neat.

He's quite handsome too.

No matter how handsome he is, he can't compare to you.

He can.

I saw Chi Cheng yesterday at the hospital.

Chi Cheng didn't come home all day.

I called him,

but he lied and said...

he was with a client.

Do you think...

there's a misunderstanding?

What misunderstanding can there be?

I fished information out of Xiao Gang.

He said he didn't see Chi Cheng all day.

Chi Cheng must've been in the hospital.

He must've seen him too.

But he didn't dare to say it.

Otherwise,

he wouldn't have apologized to me as soon as he came home.

That's not Chi Cheng's style.

If he really cares about Wang Shuo...

and wants to see him,

he can do it openly.

If he's really feeling guilty about it,

he wouldn't let you know.

That makes sense.

You didn't ask him?

Why ask him?

I pretended not to know.

This is how...

a lot of misunderstandings start.

When they accumulate and don't get resolved,

the trust that should be there will be lost.

If you're really worried,

you can do...

a surprise check.

Isn't he...

packing his things right now?

And you're not around.

If something is going on between them,

maybe...

at this hour,

they're having an affair.

Should I...Should I really go?

If I really catch them...

Then break up.

Don't look like...

you can't live without him.

Okay.

I'll go. It's best to catch them in bed.

Then..

we'll have a single's party right away.

Wang Shuo.

I'll ask you one last time.

You came back six months ago.

Why didn't you show up?

I show up here all the time.

Don't I?

It's just that you don't come.

I've already moved my snakes. Why should I come back?

Your heart has already moved.

How would you find me?

Go home now.

I heard...

that for Wu Suo Wei's sake,

you killed Yellow Dragon.

Who told you that?

People are talking about it.

I heard it myself.

You're freaking inhuman!

You killed Yellow Dragon!

Wang Shuo!

Since you started doing those things,

all these snakes deserve to die.

Are you crazy?

This snake is poisonous.

You didn't know, did you?

Actually, humans are poisonous too.

Your mouth is still so sweet.

It's okay.

I'm fine.

You're freaking crazy.

Chi Cheng!

You only asked me why I was gone for so many years.

You never asked me...

why I did those things...

with Guo Cheng Yu!

Hello?

Are you Zhang Li Ya's son?

Yes, I am.

Come to the hospital now.

Okay. I'll be right there.

Chi Cheng.

You're good.

Not bad.

I didn't waste this gas money for nothing.

It's not too late.

It's not too late at all.

I haven't fallen in too deep yet.

I'm still sober.

Who can resist the reconciliation of the one you love but can't have?

I knew you were unreliable.

It's not like I'm too emotionally invested.

Chi Cheng.

I won't let you easily get away with this.

Who is it?

Darn it.

Why is he here?

I don't have a place to stay anymore.

I'm here to stay overnight.

How did you know I live here?

With Cheng Yu around,

how can I not know where you live?

Cheng Yu and Chi Cheng aren't here today.

We're not even close.

Why did you come to my house?

I like you.

I like Daniel Wu.

I didn't go to his house.

It smells so good.

No wonder Cheng Yu likes you.

Get up.

Get up!

Please.

Let me stay at your house for one night.

I'm begging you.

Have pity on me.

Let me sleep over.

If Wang Shuo is here,

Da Wei should be with Chi Cheng.

Forget it.

I'll let him stay,

so he won't cause trouble for Wu Suo Wei.

Let me stay.

- Mrs. Wu, you're awake. - Xiao Chi.

You didn't tell Da Qiong, did you?

Don't worry.

Are you out of your mind?

What's wrong? Why did you turn off my speaker?

You're disturbing people early in the morning.

There are so many hotels and guesthouses out there.

Why didn't you stay there?

Why stay here to save a few hundred dollars?

I hate it when people touch my things.

Your food is so delicious.

Why can't you let me...

have a bite?

Chi Cheng had such good taste back then.

Why don't you say Cheng Yu...

had good taste too?

Because who Cheng Yu likes...

isn't you.

That's why I came to stay at your place for the night.

Out of all the people,

you're the smartest.

Xiao Shuai.

Why are you here?

Good morning.

I didn't freaking give you...

Jiang Xiao Shuai's address...

for this.

But that's why I'm here.

I'll get going.

Bye, baby.

Get lost.

Why is he here?

Are you mad...

that he slept here with me...

or that I slept here with him?

What do you think?

It was so late last night.

I couldn't stop him from staying here.

Don't hang out with him anymore.

Let me tell you. With people like him,

who knows what he wants to do?

Before this, he asked me for your address.

And he said...

He said the first time he saw you,

he really liked you.

He wanted to send you some food.

But he sent...

And...

you even let him sleep over.

I...

I haven't even slept over at your place yet.

Xiao Shuai.

Later on,

I'm going on a business trip for a few days.

But I swear.

It's really for work.

Okay.

By the way, listen to me.

If Wang Shuo comes again,

don't open the door for him,

let alone let him stay the night.

Do you hear me?

Okay.

Where's Wu Suo Wei?

Why are you looking for your guy here?

Wasn't he with you yesterday?

He left around 9pm yesterday.

Where did he go after that?

Afterwards...

After that, he went to you.

He went to me?

I'm at the office.

Wei Wei.

Where did you go yesterday?

I went home...

to be with my mom.

That's impossible.

Why is it impossible?

Wei Wei.

Yesterday,

did you go...

- to the place I ren... - Come to the office.

Can't we just talk things out?

Did you see something?

What should I have seen?

Wei Wei.

Listen to me, okay?

Tell me.

Why didn't you go home last night?

Last night, I didn't go home because...

I...

went to meet a client.

I'm sorry.

You're sorry.

You're sorry again.

Before this, asking you to say those words...

would have almost killed you.

Now,

you said them twice in three days.

Wei Wei.

I'll explain it to you...

It's not a big deal.

You're meeting with a client.

I should be happy.

Can't you listen to me for once, Mrs. Wu?

Why were you in such a hurry to get discharged?

There's no point in staying in the hospital.

If Da Qiong finds out,

he'll get suspicious.

Thank you for everything during this time.

Mr. Wu.

A client wants to see you.

Who?

Mr. Wang Shuo.

- Wang Shuo? - Yes.

Let him in.

Okay.

Hello.

I'm Wang Shuo.

(Bonus Clip)

I'm not playing anymore.

Play one more round.

What should the two of us play then?

I'll go easy on you in the next round.

I can't beat you. Seriously.

Find someone else to play with.

I'm not playing anymore. I quit.
