♪A beautiful place full of smiles♪

♪Where imaginations about you grow wildly♪

♪The winter sun is like your white teeth♪

♪Expecting your visit all day long♪

♪Like the light breeze and the fragrance of flowers in May and June♪

♪Hesitate to embrace you and my words stumble♪

♪Time passes hurriedly, leaving a photo of us and sunflowers♪

♪Too flimsy to be scrutinized♪

♪Welcome to my world and explore its beauty♪

♪I can offer you my clumsy gentleness♪

♪Welcome to my lonely island, too♪

[Hidden Love] [Adapted from the novel Hidden Love by Zhu Yi]

[Episode 15]

You should feel better after taking some medicine.

The doctor said to take two pills.

How is it? Do you feel better?

It doesn't work immediately.

Jiaxu,

you don't need to worry about me.

I think that milk tea was pretty good.

You want to have milk tea in this state?

That's not it. It was my first time trying it.

I was just

giving you my opinion.

I won't have it again.

I had milk before.

And I couldn't stop throwing up the entire night.

Did I buy milk

for you before?

Did you drink it?

Nope.

My classmate took it.

She threw away the bottle too.

It was pointless

to keep it anyway.

You should've

told me that you can't have milk.

I didn't drink it anyway.

I'll take note of it next time.

I was careless today.

Remember to check it

before you take your drink next time.

If not, you'll be in trouble.

Shall I send you back to your dorm then?

Let's go.

Stop scratching.

It'll be more severe.

You'll have rashes again.

I'm not scratching. I just feel hot.

Be a good girl.

Let's go.

What's so funny?

It feels like you're taking your dog out for a walk.

Yeah.

I'm taking my dog, which doesn't care about what it eats,

out for a walk.

Jiaxu.

Why did you

tell your colleagues

that I was your friend?

You used to...

Didn't you always tell other people

that I was your sister?

Are you taking me as your elder brother for real?

Sang Zhi.

It's nothing.

Let's go.

Your birthday is near, right?

Looks like

I can't get a birthday cake for you then.

If not, you'll get an allergic reaction

if you take cream.

I...

(Is he saying)

(that he wants to celebrate my birthday for me?)

Our birthdays are pretty close.

How do you plan to celebrate your birthday then?

I'm not celebrating it.

But why?

It's pointless to celebrate it alone.

[Chapter 15: Confession. Attraction.]

What's the matter with Sang?

She hasn't texted us yet.

I wonder

how her date went.

You're so nosy.

Did you catch a cold?

No.

I just have some symptoms.

I'll be fine after taking this.

You don't understand.

It's more interesting

when you observe

other people's relationships.

Besides,

not all crushes

love you back, you know?

Moreover, this is

their first date.

Now that I think about it,

Sang didn't even dare to say

that she fancied him in front of him.

She was so passive.

If I were in her shoes,

I would've

rushed forward and confessed to him.

I don't care.

I'll try to court him first.

Yeah,

it only works on your boyfriend.

How would you know?

Let me ask you this then.

What would you do if you had a crush

on someone?

You asked the wrong question.

I don't do that.

It's either I like him

or I don't.

Okay. Let me rephrase my question.

If you like someone,

will you court him or not?

I won't.

Why should I court him

if he never gives me any hints?

Why wouldn't you court him?

If he has the same mindset as you,

if both of you don't court each other,

both of you won't know about

each other's feelings.

I'm sure you'll regret it

if other girls

make him their boyfriend after this.

If

his heart

was won by someone else,

that means he isn't mine.

There's nothing to regret about.

There are plenty of men in the world.

Let me ask you this.

If you

like a guy,

will you court him or not?

Will you court him or not?

I don't know either.

What do you mean by that?

You asked the wrong person.

Who will join me

in the library tomorrow?

Me.

Me.

I'll ask Sang

to join us tomorrow.

Okay.

We already finished supper

for some time.

Why isn't Sang back yet?

Don't tell me she and her "elder brother"

went somewhere else?

I don't think so.

Moreover, this is

their first date.

It's late.

Why hasn't she returned yet?

Call her.

Sang, where are you now?

It's late, you know?

Wait.

What's with the getup?

What's wrong?

I'm fine.

I just had an allergic reaction because I had milk tea.

Wait!

Why did you have milk tea?

I just took a sip.

Look at all the rashes. You're not okay at all.

You went on a date

looking like that?

How did it go?

How did it go?

Was it okay?

Wait!

Tell me how okay it was.

I...

I feel like...

Speak up.

I feel like he likes me.

Really?

Does he know

that you like him too?

No.

I never expressed myself in front of him.

I'm sure he knows that you like him

if you show him that smile.

But, Sang,

you mustn't let him know

that you still like him after this.

In a relationship,

men must be the ones

who court women.

But what if

he doesn't court me?

I don't think that'll happen.

Trust me this time.

Trust her this time. It'll work.

It'll be fine.

Just trust me this time.

I'm definitely right.

Okay then.

I'll wait for him to court me.

That's right.

If he doesn't court me,

I'll court him.

That was a waste of my time.

You're hopeless.

Look at your face.

Hurry and take your medicine.

Look at all the rashes.

Sang, you can do it.

[16 March, Friday. He said I was his friend instead of his younger sister.]

Are you waiting at the entrance?

Okay.

I'll head there.

Sang Zhi.

Jiang Ming.

Happy birthday.

Here's your birthday present.

Thank you.

Thanks, but I don't think I'll take it.

I already bought it, you know?

I'll be in an awkward spot

if you don't accept it.

Just take it.

Okay then.

Thanks.

Are you free later?

Let's celebrate your birthday together.

Hey.

I'll make a move first then.

Happy birthday once again.

Thank you.

Goodbye.

I'll hold it for you.

Was he

the manly man you mentioned?

I told you already.

Not him.

Is that so?

Take a look.

Did you take a clear look?

What are you doing?

Look at me.

Do I look like the man you mentioned?

(What is he talking about?)

(What does he mean?)

(Does he know about it already?)

(No.)

(I cannot admit it.)

(If I do,)

(I'd be telling him)

(that he was the one I had a crush on all along.)

You don't look like him.

Is that so?

Jiaxu,

you see,

you should stop mentioning him

in front of me.

You told me

that he was a jerk, right?

That's why I stopped contacting him.

Now,

I don't have a crush on anyone.

The person you mentioned,

he was like a central air-conditioning system, huh?

When did I...

(Did I tell him that that day?)

Yeah, a little.

Do you even know

what that term means?

Jiaxu, don't you know what it means?

I told you already.

You should surf the Internet more often.

Our gap is becoming apparent.

Tell me then.

What does the term mean?

It refers

to a guy

with many

female friends.

He's nice to all of them.

And he doesn't have a girlfriend.

So, are you saying

that a person is like a central air-conditioning system

when he fulfills one of the three criteria?

Of course not.

He needs to fulfill all three criteria.

You're pretty good at framing people.

What did you say?

Did I say anything?

You did just now.

This is strange.

The movie was only shown in cinemas not long ago.

Why was it removed?

It's all because you're too busy.

Are you blaming me then?

No.

This is pretty good too.

The cinema in downtown

has bigger screens and better sound effects.

And today's your birthday.

Let's make it more meaningful.

Grab hold onto me.

If not, you'll fall.

Hold tight.

♪Love is when butterflies flutter in my heart♪

♪And ripples of excitement sprawling across my vision♪

♪Trying to hide the happiness under a calm face♪

♪But I can't contain my joy♪

♪I have a weird intuition♪

♪My heart jingles when I think of you♪

You want to grab another drink?

You're not having any anyway.

Aren't you afraid

of blushing again?

It was

an allergic reaction. I wasn't blushing.

Hello. What would you like to order?

Hello.

The girl

with the square glasses,

is she here today?

She's on the night shift today.

I want

lemon tea with pearls.

Okay. Hot or iced?

Iced.

Make it hot.

Make it hot, please.

It's cold, you know? You shouldn't take iced beverages.

I want it iced.

Okay.

It's stuffy in the cinema.

Iced lemon tea with pearls.

Fine, you can have it.

Here.

I'll scan your phone.

It'll be cold

in the cinema later.

Their air-conditioning is pretty strong.

Don't drink too much.

Mind your own business.

So, you think I'm annoying?

No.

Wasn't that what you meant?

No.

You should get used to it.

Thank you.

Take care.

I'll hold it for you.

Do you want it?

I can hold it myself.

You...

You can grab your drink if you like it.

You don't need to touch my hand on purpose.

I...

I can hold it myself.

It's cold, you know?

It's cold for you too, isn't it?

Yeah.

You should warm it for me.

We...

I don't think

this is appropriate

for me to do so.

You're right.

After all, you're not my girlfriend yet.

(What?)

Here you go.

Wipe your hands.

Hold it.

-Zhi. -Jiaxu.

You first.

It's nothing.

I was planning to ask you

about what we'll do later.

Later,

you should come to my house.

The gift I prepared for you

is at my house.

After that,

we can have some cakes together.

Jiaxu,

did you tell me to go to your house?

Didn't you tell me

not to go to your house before?

You said I should head to your office if I wanted to see you.

When did I say that?

The time

when I delivered the electronic peephole camera to you.

You pulled me to the side

and told me

not to meet you in your house or your office.

You mean that time?

It's like this.

Jiang Ying

suddenly

came to find me in my office.

I was afraid she might

hurt you

if she saw you.

That's why...

However,

I was hasty back then.

That's why I might not have expressed myself clearly.

So,

you were upset

because of that?

You're making it as if

I'm a petty person.

That's not it.

That was indeed my fault.

I should've

clarified myself back then.

Let me

apologize to you.

I guess

I was being petty

too.

I apologize to you too.

I'm sorry.

So now,

since our misunderstanding has been resolved,

let's have some cakes.

Let's go.

I prepared these for you.

For me?

They're pretty good.

You don't need to change into them first.

You haven't been to the balcony yet, right?

Go and check it out.

Why are there two cakes?

I made one of them.

It doesn't contain any dairy products.

You can have it.

It's this one, right?

You could tell?

It's pretty obvious.

If so,

why did you buy this one?

I was afraid that I might do a terrible job.

That's why I bought another one

so that you could put your candles on it.

Not at all. It looks great.

Is that so?

If so, you can pick one to put your candles on.

If so, I'll go with

this one.

Okay.

How many candles do you need?

One is enough.

This one.

That won't do.

You need 19 of them.

Now, you need to know

your own age.

Jiaxu,

if we have to know our own age

when we celebrate our birthdays,

I don't think

I can fit all of them on your birthday cake.

You just have to mock me every day, huh?

♪Happy birthday to you♪

♪Happy birthday to you♪

♪Happy birthday to you♪

♪Happy birthday to you♪

(This is my first birthday)

(with Jiaxu.)

(I hope that there will be)

(plenty of it in the future.)

Make a wish.

Can I say it out loud?

Do you wish to do so?

Happy birthday!

Cut the cake.

Do the first stroke.

Okay.

Here.

Sang Zhi, you're officially 19 years old.

Try it.

See if it's nice.

Is it nice?

It's nice.

It's just like this one.

It's delicious.

Great.

Here's your birthday present.

But you already prepared a cake for me.

You got me a present too?

The cake will only last for a while.

It's better if I give you a present

that lasts longer.

Thank you, Jiaxu.

You can unwrap it

when you get back.

Okay.

I'll try it too.

Did someone buy that for you?

Aren't you going to unwrap it?

I'll do it when I go back.

That guy is trying to woo you.

Looks like you're pretty popular, huh?

If so, can you tell me

how good a guy should be

before he can woo you?

What? That's nonsense.

If so, can you tell me

what kind of guy

you will like?

He must be handsome,

have a good temper,

and

at least this tall.

Is that all?

And...

He must have a sound moral compass. That's all.

Is that all?

I think

I do possess the qualities

you mentioned.

That's why I want to ask you this.

Can I woo you?

♪How do I describe this feeling?♪

♪The moment I see you♪

I...

I...

Jiaxu.

Was what you said

the same

as what I thought?

♪The love that's hidden within time♪

Is there

another meaning to it?

But didn't you say

that I was a kid?

You said I was too young, right?

It was just a nickname.

If you like it,

I can call you that

even when you're 80.

Besides,

although you do call me your brother all the time,

I'm sure you don't treat me

as one, right?

I do treat you as my elder brother.

But...

♪Depending on you without any hesitations♪

I want to be more than just your elder brother.

♪Loving you with my all♪

I want to be your boyfriend.

♪You'll walk toward me one day♪

♪A crystal clear presence♪

♪Until a long time ahead♪

Say something.

If you don't,

I don't think I can breathe.

♪Dawning upon countless expectations♪

(You can't breathe?)

(More like)

(I can't breathe.)

♪This moment is irreplaceable♪

Jiaxu,

no one would ask for the other party's permission

before wooing someone.

I have to

make myself clear.

If not,

you'll think that I'm being nice to you

because I'm your senior.

What should I do by then?

That's your business.

It has nothing to do with me.

♪A crystal clear love♪

♪The past, the present, and always♪

Why don't you tell me something?

Tell me

if you have

any feelings for me.

I don't.

However...

What I meant was

you should woo me

so that I could know

whether or not I have any feelings for you.

Sure.

If so,

can you tell me

how long I should woo you before you can confirm your feelings?

How could I do so?

You're making it as if

I will definitely say yes to you.

How could you say no to me?

You won't be able to win my heart.

I'm tough to please.

Fine.

I'll woo you for a long time then.

I'll woo you for several decades.

But if you go and make acquaintances

with other young boys,

I'll complain

to your parents.

Why should you complain to them?

Did you forget the time

when I pretended to be your parents and met your teacher?

It was so long ago.

Why are you bringing it up again?

I'm a nostalgic person.

By the way,

I forgot to tell you this.

You look great today.

I know.

You dolled yourself up

for this date.

I'm sure you have feelings for me, right?

It's my birthday.

Can't I doll myself up during my birthday?

Did you think I dolled myself up

because of you?

Fine.

I know you have no feelings for me.

Can't I just imagine things

and make myself happy?

If so, you should keep it to yourself.

I want to say it out loud

so that you can hear me.

By the way, Jiaxu,

you...

You haven't

confessed to me yet, right?

You just asked me

whether you could woo me or not.

And I think I didn't reject you,

right?

If so,

can I take the cake with me?

So, are you saying

that you'll say yes if I confess to you

right now?

No way.

You can't take it with you then.

You can keep this.

Let me take this back, okay?

No.

Why are you so petty?

I'm just saying

that you can woo me for a little longer.

It's not like I didn't agree...

I...

You have to woo me

before I can know

if I have any feelings for you.

Understood?

Fine then.

That's okay.

If you don't have any feelings for me,

I'll woo you until you have feelings for me.

Finish the cake.

Sit down and enjoy it.

You can take the cake with you.

You mean both?

If you like them,

I can make them for you every day.

Sure.

I'm back.

Are you guys asleep?

It's pretty early.

I'm back.

♪Happy birthday to you♪

♪Happy birthday to you♪

♪Happy birthday to you♪

♪Happy birthday to you♪

Make a wish!

Make a wish!

Hurry!

Can I say it out?

No.

No.

Blow out the candles.

Happy birthday!

You're one year older now.

Put it down.

Why are there two cakes here?

It looks terrible.

Not at all.

I think it looks adorable.

Don't tell me that elder brother of yours

made it for you?

Is it that obvious?

Really?

Did your date go well today?

Tell us about it.

I did have a good time.

If so,

was there any substantial progress?

Yeah.

I knew it!

Tell us!

Tell us!

Hurry.

Tell us about it.

I...

What's wrong?

I think you guys understand.

I can't take it anymore.

Come on.

He's so good at this.

Put your back into it.

Knead it repeatedly.

That's right. Make it round

after repeating that several times.

After that, you can knead it.

Don't do it like that.

Here, let me show you.

Push it forward.

When you almost reach the end,

you have to pull it back.

You can't just

push it until the end.

Got it?

Okay, I'll do it.

You couldn't master it

when you came to work in my shop

when you were in 12th Grade.

But now,

you're here to learn it again.

Are you seeing someone?

Am I right?

You brat.

Listen.

The cake will taste different

if you put your heart into making it.

Remember that.

Okay.

Knead it.

That's right. Front and back.

Be careful.

That's right.

What's with the crack?

Did I bake it for too long?

Listen.

Don't give up yet.

This is tough to make in the first place.

You should've listened to me

and done something simpler.

It would've been done by now.

It's fine. I'll try again.
