[My Mowgli Boy]

[Episode 9]

Men...

Lu Ziyue. Even though our teamwork was really good just now,

don't think that there is any progress with our feelings.

I beg you. Don't make me your objective anymore.

My objective... has left.

- You were chasing the bus? - Yeah.

Road 45.

My home.

Then... Sorry about that. I misunderstood.

You can wait for the next bus then.

Look at that phrase. You can read it forward or backward.

"You are the joy of youth."

“The boy I like is you."

This Besheen tea wine, is this how they make their small heart gesture?

Can I ask you a question?

You've really never... truly liked a guy?

- You're asking if I've been heartbroken before, right? - Pretty much.

When you men don't want to settle down, people see them as unconventional and romantic.

When we women don't want to settle down,

people think that we've experienced heartbreak.

Don't you think that this line of thought is quite sexist?

I didn't mean it that way. You misunderstood.

I didn't misunderstand.

Aren't you just a guy who subjects others to strict standards just because he himself follows strict self-discipline?

To be honest, apart from being a bit like a nerd,

you're still somewhat a gentleman.

I guess I still hold some kind of place and status in your heart.

The emphasis is on 'nerd,' okay?

Doesn't nerd just mean "Sheldon" (a character from "The Big Bang Theory")? I thought that was a compliment.

Definitely not.

All in all, my life's focus

isn't on love, but on friends, especially friends like Ling Xi.

Then why did Zheng Li have such an expression?

Wanting to speak, but hesitating. A feeling of disappointment.

I think it's probably because...

Because of what?

I don't know either.

I just knew that you didn't know.

Thanks.

I want be by myself for a bit. Is that okay, Mowgli?

I have a question I want to ask you.

Go ahead.

Is an ID card really important?

It is important. It's a person's tag.

Plus, it's also your "factory setting." Of course, it's important.

Before, when I was in the forest, it was just my grandfather and me.

There was also a teacher. Once I graduated middle school the teacher left.

I don't know how to apply for an ID.

I've also never thought about applying for one.

But if you're going to live here, you have to get one. It's really important.

It's evidence that you exist in this world.

Then an ID card... Does everyone need to have one?

Does Brother Ziyue have one?

Why are you bringing him up all the time?

You like him?

I am a "steel straight man." (a man who never understands the thoughts of women)

How did you know the phrase "steel straight man?"

Video comments.

Stop watching so many idol dramas, okay? You've watched so many and there doesn't seem to be much improvement.

I've been learning quite well.

Are Tang Cheng and Ziyue lovers?

When they were at the police bureau, I saw them secretly making a high-five.

Are you dumb? A high-five means they're a couple now?

Then, Zheng Li and Bai Yiling are a couple, right?

I definitely didn't misread this one.

What are you saying?

The two of them... How is that even possible?

When I saw Zheng Li looking at Bai Yiling,

his gaze would always stay on her face for three seconds.

When the two of them are having a conversation,

it feels like the two of them are completely glowing.

What does that prove? The two of them being together is absolutely impossible!

How is it possible for Zheng Li and Bai Yiling to be together?

Even if there were a couple, it would be me and Zheng Li.

Even if it's not now, it would be in the future!

Wasn't it you and me?

When did it become you and me? What nonsense are you spouting?

The last time on the live stream—

That was for public relations. Emergency PR, you understand?

We probably won't meet again in the future, right?

But I still want to wish you all the best.

Can I ask you one more question?

The two us... Did we not meet at the right time?

Maybe.

Bye-bye.

Too bad.

Who made us people being not on the same page?

Those muscles... He'd be a pretty good private trainer.

Are you sleeping?

Not yet.

Did I go overboard today?

Zheng Li really seems to be unhappy.

Have you thought about why he's unhappy?

Maybe, it's because he doesn't like me interfering

and messing things up?

I truly believe that he's never liked you.

Oh, I know! I'm always messing around every day.

He probably thinks I only know how to act like this.

This time, I've decided to seriously work on patching things up. Goodnight!

When can this annoying girl finally find true love?

Inexplicably getting mad at me...

You can't sleep either, right?

Very good.

Ziyue's home.

I'm sorry. I didn't get that.

Where would you like to go?

Brother Ziyue's home.

I'm too stupid. I didn't get what you were saying.

I want to go to Lu Ziyue's house!

Please enter desired destination.

Brother Ziyue, where is your house?

I want to go to your house tomorrow.

I'm leaving!

Even though it's still early,

I can't wait any longer.

I'm leaving home. I just wanted to let you know.

Take the 13 subway line, then switch to line 12.

Then switch to line 9.

After I get off the subway, I'll still have to walk 1,152 meters.

Then take the 791 bus...

Too much!

This is too much!

Who is it?

Who—

Who are you guys?

Where did you all come from?

You're placing it in the wrong place, you know that?

It's not in the wrong place!

I destroyed the stuff, so I'm paying for it.

It's got nothing to do with Bai Yiling, so don't blame her for it.

Understand?

Got it. You've still got some humanity.

Let's go!

[Recent incoming calls]

[Gao Jie]

- Hello? - Why are you calling me?

Still mad at me?

Of course.

I reserved a private room at a restaurant for tomorrow evening. I want to take you out to dinner.

Don't know if you're willing to accept my apology.

Hello?

Tomorrow evening? Who else is going to be there?

It's just the two of us.

I have something I want to give to you.

- Then I'll see you tomorrow. - Okay.

[99 Huacheng Road. Building 2]

- Brother Ziyue. - Brother Mo.

You need to adopt me.

Adopt?

You mean give you shelter?

- You must be Ziyue's friend, right? - Yes.

Come, come, come. We just happened to have three people. Come, come, come. Come play Mahjong!

Come, come, come. Come, come, come!

Sit, sit!

Let me tell you. A table

must have east, west, south, north.

All must be filled for the atmosphere to be right.

Whether it's a mahjong table or a dining table, it's all the same!

Oh right, Little Mo, do you know how to play mahjong?

I don't. I know how to shoot sparrows. (T/N: "play mahjong" and "shoot sparrows" in Chinese differ only in the last character)

What's the use in knowing how to shoot sparrows?

Sparrows?

I know how to, too. When I was young, I would also shoot sparrows.

I would take a slingshot and... peng! I'd hit them in one shot.

And then after roasting them... So fragrant.

Tastes good, right?

Dad, Dad. Let's eat first.

- Okay, let's eat, eat. - It's going to become dry.

Right, right, right. Eat, eat, eat. Use your chopsticks.

Hurry and eat, hurry and eat.

Come, come, come. Let me help you.

Good, good.

Come, eat lots. Let me give you some.

It's really hot. Be careful.

You can dip it into this seafood sauce.

You can also dip it into this sauce. It's a little spicy.

Let me tell you something. Last night,

I heard our son sighing even he was taking a shower.

He probably has a problem.

Don't pay too much attention to them. That's just how my parents are.

How can I ask that?

No, what's there not to ask?

Dad? Mom?

They're the parents who gave birth and raised me.

Anyways, if they ask you any questions,

just answer in the simplest way you can.

When... I see them smile, they seem quite friendly.

But it still feels kind of weird.

Just eat.

Okay.

I didn't know that all this meat and vegetables could be combined together and eaten like this.

Right.

Little Mo.

Do you frequently go to your male friends' homes?

No. This is my first time visiting. (T/N: Mowgli's use of "visiting" here actually has the connotation of a man going and living with his wife's family)

Did you hear that? He said "visiting."

I heard it, okay? "Visiting," "visiting," I heard it.

That... Don't your family have any

opinions or views about you "visit?"

Family?

Ling Xi?

I don't want to talk about her. We just had a huge argument yesterday.

Argument? You two fought over this?

Then, have you ever had a girlfriend?

I have. But not anymore.

I think she's probably given up on me.

You're already at this stage?

We... What stage?

Th-th-this...

Dad, Mom.

My friend was in a bad mood and wanted to come over.

You're asking things left and right. Isn't that too rude?

But.. say... y-y-you...

I'm not eating anymore. You guys need to reflect on your actions.

Let's go.

Get up. Come with me.

Alright, alright.

Please come in.

Tell me.

Coming here with a backpack and asking me to adopt you, what happened between you and Ling Xi?

I want to seriously ask you a question. And I want you to answer me seriously.

Go on.

I just want to ask you, if someone knows you like to eat steak,

and they usually make steak for you,

and it's even medium rare, and they only screw the pepper grinder twice,

that still does not mean she likes you?

Not necessarily.

Then taking pictures together, even making finger-hearts together,

and saying that she really likes the feeling when she's with you,

that also does not mean she really likes you. Am I right?

Not necessarily.

Then when you got hurt, she helped you change and washed your hair,

that still does not mean she likes you, right?

Even sleeping together on the same bed doesn't necessarily mean that.

I thought everything said in front of the public would count.

Brother Mo. Ling Xi didn't intentionally lie to you.

She just needed your help, that's all. Don't take it too personally.

But, regardless,

she lied to me. I don't like this feeling.

I know. I don't like it either.

Say, why are humans so complicated?

Can't we be simple like animals?

When animals get mad, they roar.

When they find food, they'll call their companions to come back.

When they're happy, they joyfully

roll around on the ground.

Why can't humans be that simple?

We humans also used to live in the forest.

In the process of evolution, we developed language,

into which lies and deception were also incorporated.

So everything a person says is not necessarily the truth?

It's true that at times, all are just lies.

But it's not something that can be avoided.

I don’t want to lie to her, too.

But I feel like I have been tricked.

I am very sad. What should I do?

You should just treat it... like we went to play archery.

Wherever the arrow came from, since you feel upset, then shoot it back to that direction.

She is not my enemy.

Also, I don’t want to hurt her and I don’t want to lie to her.

Then just pull the arrow out. The wound would be very painful, but it will recover eventually.

You mean you want me to forget about it?

Yes. Though I don’t know if it is possible either.

Do you have anything that's hard to forget?

I do.

But if I keep holding onto it and never forget, it will just make things difficult for her.

But if I just forget about it, I'm not being honest with myself.

To be honest, I have been thinking about this problem for a long time.

Say, why are women's words like nuclear weapons?

Especially towards men who've been single since birth like us?

Women...

Right. Women....

are so hard to understand.

So hard to understand.

Okay, okay. Let's finish this round.

I can’t drink anymore.

I am a bit drunk.

I am very drunk, too.

But no, as men,

come. Let's get drunk once and for all.

Let’s toast.

Mowgli! Come help me open a bottle of water!

Mowgli!

Where is he?

Mowgli?

Mowgli?

Where is he?

- Hello, Mow— - I’m not here.

Hanging up on me?

That's something. Are you going through menopause?

Baffling!

I said I’m not here.

I am not asking you if you are here or not.

I just want to tell you

that right now, the sky has already turned dark.

Don't you know that when the sky turns dark, you need to go home?

Why are you still roaming around outside?

I am at Ziyue’s house. I am not going home tonight.

Whatever you want! You should just stay there for a few more days. Hanging up.

Throwing a tantrum at me now?

I am not going with your whim.

Watch me throw all your stuff away.

Why is the blanket so thin? Not scared of the cold?

Don’t even know what he uses to cover himself when sleeping.

Could it be he covers himself with clothing?

[Ling Xi]

Hello, Ling Xi?

Lu Ziyue, I want to ask, why is Mowgli angry at me?

He discovered that you lied to him. He thought you the couple relationship between you guys was real.

That... Tell him to put on more blanketsso he doesn't catch a cold.

Also, usually he likes to eat meat, he doesn’t like to eat vegetables and fruits.

Try to fool him to eat more fruits and vegetables. Sorry to bother you.

Okay, don’t worry. Leave it all to me.

-Bye bye. -Bye bye.

[Cafe Pascucci]

Let me tell you guys, it sure was romantic.

Really? Hurry and say it!

I can't just casually tell you about it.

She’s here. She's here.

- Surprise! - Why did you come?

I didn’t just come here myself, I brought some of my friends.

- Hi! - Hi!

Hi.

This is...

Don’t you have something to tell me? Say it.

Didn't we agree to talk tonight in the private room I reserved at the restaurant?

It's too noisy here.

What I want to say is important. It should be done earnestly.

You know, some things, when said in public, are considered more earnest.

- I think— - Are you not willing to?

You know I love the noise and bustle.

Also, the wish I've had forever is for everyone to witness my happiness.

Ling Yu, I heard that you are going to propose to Gao Jie?

That’s right. Are you still not proposing? Propose!

Ling Yu, propose!

Ling Yu, propose!

Louder!

Propose!

Ling Yu, propose!

Ling Yu, propose!

Hurry!

Propose!

Propose!

This is the engagement ring that I carefully chose for you. Please accept this.

So big.

I’m not accepting.

How is it? Are you guys there?

Almost, almost. There is one more intersection.

How is Mowgli’s mood right now?

Don’t be so nervous.

How can I not be nervous?

When you get there later, you're responsible for adjusting the air conditioner.

I’ll go inside to wait for you guys.

Ling Yu, you need to know that you are proposing.

You're asking someone to give the rest of her life to you.

This can't be so easy.

That’s right. Also, whether you'll be good to Gao Jie in the future,

we haven't tested you yet.

Please don’t worry.

I will treat her the way I treated her before proposing.

Whatever she asks of me, I will do my best to fulfill them.

Words aren't enough. Then why don't you, in front of all of us,

kiss Gao Jie’s hand, then I’ll believe you.

He kissed!

You already kissed her hand. If you don’t mind, kiss her feet!

That's too much.

My dear, are you going to embarrass me?

Okay. Today, whatever you say, I’ll do it.

My goodness.

Bullshit, "I'll do it."

What are you doing?

I’m proposing.

What kind of proposal is this? Is she playing you like a monkey?

They're already saying stuff like this about you. Where's your dignity?

Propose what? Let’s go!

Isn't it normal to create chaos during a proposal?

Do you love her?

Why are you here again? This is none of your business so stop interrupting.

Ling Yu. Before, I thought you just didn't want to admit defeat, but now I just think you're hypocritical.

- Also, you are a liar. - I...

- Who did I lie to? - You did not just lie to her but you also lied to yourself.

Think about it yourself, why do you want to marry her?

Is it because you love her?

Such sharp questioning.

Listen carefully. It’s exactly because I love her, that’s why I am proposing to her.

It was many years later that I realized that some lies are linked with dignity.

Losing face makes people feel even worse than lying.

You are really like a dog.

Okay. You can turn around now.

Come look.

Take off your shoes.

Mowgli. Recently, I've neglected you.

Look. I changed your comforter to a thicker one.

I also changed the batteries of the air conditioner remote.

Also... I... I shouldn't have lied to you.

I shouldn't have used you and lied to you so you would stay.

I know you really miss home, so I decorated this room to look like a forest.

But I know it's definitely still not the forest.

If you... If you really want to go back...

I'm not going back.

Really?

I can help you solve your problems first,

then go back.

Mowgli. Then you...forgive me?

[Chundao Airport]

In the previous draft of the contract, there were two major problems.

The first had to do with the amount of time the logo is displayed. The second had to do with the number of audio broadcasts.

But in this draft of the contract I've fixed these issues. You can take a look.

Sorry about that. I didn't prepare adequately. I forgot to charge it.

But I have a backup on my phone. I can take it out for you to look right now.

It's fine. The parts that have been revised... I remember them.

All in all, our process is...

meet, eat, sign, and stamp. The usual process, right?

Right.

Before, whenever my condition wasn't that great,

my dad would always tell me an inspirational story regarding animals.

Every time he finished telling the story, the tissue in my hand

would have been folded into something resembling like the animal in the story.

For you.

Wishing you would break out of your cocoon and turn into a butterfly soon.

Hence, this is a cocoon or a butterfly?

Wrong. This is "break."

It really is quite broken.

I'll work hard to fold it into a butterfly.

Oh, right. Here is some information regarding Director Chen. You can take a look.

[Bio Information about Director Chen]

Frankly, we are 90 percent certain of getting this collaboration deal. It's just that...

Is there something else still missing?

The Director Chen we're meeting later just came back from overseas.

It could be because he stayed overseas for a long period of time that his behavior is unrestrained.

I heard that he's not easy to handle. Let's play it by ear later.

Promise me this. You're a woman.

You must protect your safety well. Okay?

Okay.

Mowgli!

There's someone in here.

Al-al-alright. It-it's fine. It's fine.

First come, first serve. I'll wait, I'll wait.

I just want to ask... How much longer do you think you're going to take?

Depends on my mood. It'll be ten minutes at least.

I'm really regretting turning a bathroom into a closet now.

I-I don't mean to rush you. I just want to be presumptuous and ask you how much longer do you think you're going to take?

Maybe 20 minutes... Maybe 30 minutes... I'm not sure.

Are you kidding me?

Cheng, Cheng, Cheng. Are you at home? Are you using the bathroom?

Amazing. Wait for me. It's urgent.

Steak, fried eggs, milk buns.

And my favorite pickled mustard roots. What's the occasion?

In the time I went to Tang Cheng's place and conducted a number two, you prepared such a sumptuous breakfast.

Nice.

These are all mine.

Did you know little children before the age of five must learn a certain life skill?

And that's to share. Share.

Even so, you have to see who you're sharing them with, whether they're worth it or not.

I admit that we had some contradictions and misunderstandings, so you have the right to reject me.

But, I am not asking you to repay my trifle gratitude forever.

You're eating my food, living at my place, and drinking my water. Can't you at least share a bit of breakfast with me?

These are all things I brought back from Ziyue's house.

He doesn't owe you anything.

This way, please.

- It's here? - Yes.

Looks like... I miscalculated the battle ground.

It probably will be a tough battle.

We can only adapt according to the circumstances, think of a counterattack based on his attack.

As I said before, you have to protect yourself well.

The contract is important, but human life is even more important.

If any situation crops up, hide behind me. I will protect you.

Hello! Over here!

Hello, Director Chen. This is the first time we meet. Please show me more guidance.

Hello, hello. You got it wrong. I'm not Director Chen!

I'm her assistant!

Our Director Chen is over there.

Managing Director Zheng, over here!

Sorry about that. I forgot to look into her gender.

Looks like the person who should have purchased insurance is me.

Good luck.

It's fine!

When I was reading the proposal, I thought you were a mature, old school person.

Didn't expect you to be young fresh meat.

I'm 27 years old. I'm not "fresh" anymore.

At my age, your age

is like a little sprout that just came out of the soil.

Just starting to mature.

Director Chen.

Really nice to meet you.

By the way, regarding the revisions of the content, we mainly integrated your opinion

of exposing the product's logo longer.

We think it should be three seconds.

If the length is too long, I'm afraid that the audience may have a negative reaction.

Director Zheng has really thought of everything. You must work hard, don't you?

I should be working hard. I'm at the age where I should be striving.

Once you get to my age, you'll understand that

apart from working hard, timing and opportunities are also very important.

Health is your most precious asset.

Director Zheng's body is quite nice. Do you usually work out?

When I don't have much going on, I play tennis with my friends.

Tennis is great! I also like playing tennis.

Why don't we have a few games later?

Director Chen, you can't! Didn't you say that playing tennis would make your arms thicker?

What do you know?

Having muscles is "strong" beautiful. It's also a kind of beauty, okay?

- But— - Alright, alright. Go wait for me over there.

As for the number of times it's broadcast, we also have some recommendations.

- We think that— - Director Zheng really has thought of everything.

A young talent like you

probably has a lot of girls chasing after you all the time, right?

Young people should place career as their focus.

No need to rush. Choose slowly.

You have a point.

It's best if you choose... a woman who is mature, steady,

and able to help your career.

I will think carefully about it.

Oh my goodness, look at me. I've only been focusing on having a conversation.

Eat some fruit.

Longan is good for the blood and kidney.

Young people like you... should be eating stuff like this.

- Director Chen. - Here. Come, have a taste.

- N-no need. - Try it!

- Th-there's really no need. - Try one!

I'll do it.

Is it yummy?

Are you okay? Are you okay? What's wrong?

- What's wrong, what's wrong? - I-I-It's fine.

Let me do it. L-Let me do it.

Are you okay?
